Feng Xing knew that going to the Archbishop now was useless, since Ye Lang was already inside. The most important thing now was to deal with this problem first!

Sixth floor, ceiling...

Young Master, what a brilliant idea you came up with! But it's not entirely without merit!

People often have misconceptions. When they are blocked by walls, they think that walls can protect them from everything. This is a blind spot that many people have.

Of course, there were also people within the Holy Church of Light who saw through this blind spot, such as the Knights of Light who were originally guarding outside but have now broken in!

"You...you..." The Knights of Light looked at Ye Lang, speechless, mostly staring blankly at the ceiling.

Perhaps when Ye Lang came down alone, these Knights of Light might not know that Ye Lang was already inside until Feng Xing returned.

But it wasn't just Ye Lang who came down; there were others too, including Ye Lanyu and the other two women, as well as the Knights of Light who followed them. With so many people and such a commotion, if the guards outside were still unaware, they wouldn't be qualified to stand outside the door!

They are now regretting that they never thought of the ceiling. They had clearly planned to defend the two rooms on the side, but why didn't they think of defending the rooms above and below as well?

Indeed, the Holy Maiden's room, as well as the rooms next to it, were all guarded. To break through the walls, one would need to pass through these guardian Knights of Light.

This might be why Ye Lang went straight upstairs. He saw someone guarding the area, and to avoid trouble, he went upstairs directly.

He had initially thought that there might be someone guarding the upper floors, but he figured it would be easier to get in from upstairs than from here. However, the result was quite reassuring; there was no defense upstairs, and he entered with ease.

Compared to breaking through the layers of defenses of those Knights of Light below, this method is much easier and more comfortable!

"What do we do now?" asked the Knights of Light. They were at a loss and could only stare blankly, asking their highest-ranking leader—the one with the highest position among them.

"What can we do now? Notify the Pope and the Archbishop and let them handle it. We have no other options!" The "leader" among the Knights of Light could only give the order helplessly. This matter still had to be decided by their superiors.

These people are for defense, not for dealing with intruders. If it were anyone else, they would have simply grabbed the intruder and sent them away to be dealt with!

But Ye Lang's identity is different, and he has so many "his colleagues" with him, so he can no longer handle this situation!

This is already beyond their job responsibilities!

This situation seems a bit strange, like a competition where once one side wins, the other side can no longer continue and has to give up!

"This..."

When Ye Lang came in, he kept staring at the Ice Crystal without making any move. He was certain that his senses came from the Ice Crystal.

But why?

He had never encountered Ice Crystal like this before. Could it be a person inside? Although Ye Lang couldn't see the person's face clearly because of the Ice Crystal, he could only vaguely see a person in the middle, and nothing else.

The Ice Crystal wasn't very transparent, and its surface was uneven, making it impossible to see what the person inside looked like.

So, does that mean you know the people here?

"Little brother, what's wrong? Do you know the Holy Maiden?" Ye Lanyu asked suspiciously, although she knew the answer was no, Ye Lang couldn't possibly know anyone here.

From childhood to adulthood, didn't she know everything about him? Even though Ye Lang had been away from her for a while, she still made him tell her everything about the time that had passed since he left.

Given Ye Lanyu's "torture" of Ye Lang, she didn't let go of even the smallest details, let alone something as important as knowing the Holy Maiden!

Ye Lang shook his head and said, "No, it's impossible for me to know her! This Ice Crystal is 21 years old, which means that the person inside was frozen inside 21 years ago. How could I possibly know her!"

"How do you know this Ice Crystal is twenty-one years old?" The guardian Knights of Light were quite surprised by Ye Lang's accurate number. They didn't know much about Ye Lang's legends, so they couldn't understand it.

"This is the Core of Frozen Origin's Myriad-Year Ice Soul. It's a very rare material that can preserve a person completely, remaining unchanged even after a thousand years! And the most amazing thing is that it can preserve a living person, allowing them to live for a thousand years without dying. The price is that they will be frozen inside and unable to move for those thousand years!" Ye Lang said slowly. "Of course, there will also be some side effects. If the person inside doesn't recover properly, there might be some minor deviations, and their bodily functions might be damaged!"

"However, generally speaking, this kind of material is used to protect the life of a dying person, and it is only used when there is no other way! I believe that this Holy Maiden must have been in mortal danger before this, which is why she was sealed in here."

"This..." The Knights of Light remained silent, because this matter was a secret of the Holy Church, and not many people knew about it. They also understood that this was not something they could possibly know.

Ye Lang ignored all that and continued with the previous topic, "Alright, back to the question. To know how long this Ice Crystal has been used, we can actually explain it from three aspects! First, in terms of thickness, when this Ice Crystal first formed, it was a cuboid two meters long and... wide. Afterward, it grew outward every day, and its shape became more and more irregular... Secondly..."

Ye Lang began to describe the three differences and started to calculate, using the three differences to calculate a very complex pattern, and then to find out how long it would take.

Everyone was stunned by this series of words, and time passed by little by little. Before Ye Lang could finish speaking, Ye Lanyu had already lost her temper!

"Alright, you don't need to tell us the process. Just tell us now what exactly gave you that familiar feeling. Have you found it?" Ye Lanyu stopped Ye Lang, and at this moment, the others looked at her as if she were a savior.

Thank you, Goddess Lan Yu, for rescuing us from this sea of suffering. We worship you...

"Found it, this is it!" Ye Lang said, pointing to the Ice Crystal.

I saw some posts today saying that Zhao Yarou was too young and shouldn't have succeeded in her coup. What's the basis for this argument? Leaving aside novels, historically, Gan Luo became prime minister at twelve, Kangxi became emperor at eight, and both emperors defeated Oboi in their teens. Was age really an issue then? Zhao Yarou seized the throne at seventeen or eighteen, but that doesn't mean she had only been preparing for it for a year or two. If you lack even this basic imagination, then you shouldn't be reading fantasy novels...
