At this moment, Yuanhui could no longer maintain her composure.

Her expression changed slightly as she said, "Amitabha, Your Highness, please do not speak nonsense. My Dragon-Raising Temple will absolutely not be involved in this matter, and I will pretend this conversation never happened."

However, Xuan Ye remained noncommittal. He did not take Yuanhui's words, but instead said, "Master, have you ever heard the saying, 'A person has no intention to harm a tiger, yet the tiger harbors ill intentions'?"

Yuanhui was slightly stunned, her expression sinking: "What does Your Highness mean?"

Xuan Ye looked out the window, not answering, and continued, "Emperor Xuan Jing is this dying tiger. For immortality, to obtain the Spiritual Essence dragon blood to extend life, he is capable of any madness."

"Master, do you know that before I came, Emperor Xuan Jing also dispatched a large number of close attendants to infiltrate Dragon-Raising Temple in search of the True Dragon's whereabouts."

Without waiting for Yuanhui's reply, he continued, "Master should have noticed. With Master's open-minded nature, you naturally wouldn't bother with these insignificant individuals."

"It's just that Master may not know, these close attendants searched for three months without finding any trace of the True Dragon. This made Emperor Xuan Jing extremely enraged, and two days ago, he issued a series of orders."

"Does Master know what those orders were?"

A trace of panic and a very bad feeling of impending disaster surfaced in Yuanhui's heart. She subconsciously asked, "What orders?"

Xuan Ye pointed to himself and said, "First, to order me, today, to find a way to stall the strongest person in the temple, Master Yuanhui."

What?

Yuanhui was shocked, countless thoughts exploding in her mind. Her Magical Power surged, and she made a move to leave.

But she was stopped by Xuan Ye's words.

"If Master leaves now, I will likely die here. Do not doubt my imperial brother's will; for longevity, he will do anything."

"Only if I die will he have sufficient pretext to threaten Dragon-Raising Temple later."

A naked scheme!

A complete naked scheme!

At this point, Yuanhui dared not leave even if she wanted to. Moreover, she had to constantly watch Xuan Ye to prevent any danger to his life.

"Has Emperor Xuan Jing gone mad? For longevity, he doesn't even care about his only brother?"

At this moment, Yuanhui was also somewhat exasperated.

Regardless of whether Xuan Ye's words would truly come to pass, she dared not gamble, nor could she.

Xuan Ye nodded and continued, "He has indeed gone mad, which is why he issued two other orders."

"Second, to order Fang Wenshan and the close attendants to disguise themselves as Demons, and forcibly attack Dragon-Raising Temple, searching for the True Dragon's trace."

"Third: To spread rumors to the Demon heretical paths, saying that a True Dragon's secret treasure has appeared in Dragon-Raising Temple, attracting outside Demon forces. And as far as I know, the famous Asura King has now reached the outskirts of Dragon-Raising Temple."

Boom!

Her mind in turmoil, Yuanhui's Magical Power went out of control, and countless Buddha lights converged.

As for the second order, Dragon-Raising Temple had more than just her; there were many enlightened monks who could deal with the invaders.

But the third order...

The great Asura King was the master of the Asura path in the Six Paths of Demons.

A great Devil comparable to the lord of the Inner Devil path.

Known as one who entered the Dao through killing, melting the five turbid Devilish Qi into himself, slaughtering millions of lives to forge the Dao Foundation of the Asura.

He was a top Demon whose power was close to the upper third rank Earthly Immortal.

On the day he achieved his Dao, based on the path of slaughter, he fought across a million li north and south for seven days and nights, conquering thirteen small kingdoms, ultimately slaughtering over a million living beings, forging the fearsome reputation of the Great Asura Lord.

With such a powerful Demon approaching Dragon-Raising Temple, how could Yuanhui not be anxious?

Even as a Buddhist, she couldn't help but curse, "Xuan Jing has gone mad? To find the True Dragon, he would allow such a Demon to enter the territory of Zhaoyang Country? Is he not afraid that the people of Zhaoyang Country will be devoured by that Demon?"

"Also, by doing this, is he truly not afraid of angering the True Dragon?"

Xuan Ye laughed heartily: "Fear? He only fears death! He believes that once a person dies, what flood can possibly bother him?"

"Besides, if the True Dragon were to truly get angry, wouldn't that suit his intentions? He could use it to confirm the True Dragon's strength, and also confirm that the True Dragon truly exists in Dragon-Raising Temple!"

Yuanhui's expression grew increasingly grim as she listened. At this point, she no longer cared about Xuan Ye's death, because a terrifying Demon's killing intent could already be sensed in the air, approaching Dragon-Raising Temple without any restraint.

There was no intention of concealment at all.

Taking a deep breath, Yuanhui was about to step out of the room, but the next second she froze in place.

Then, she looked up at the void. In the past few days, that vague sense of immense Spiritual Light had reappeared in her heart.

Above the void, there seemed to be a supreme, yet closely related to Dragon-Raising Temple, great existence, silently watching everything here through time and space.

--No need to leave... observe the situation.

For some reason, such a thought surfaced in her mind, as if it were an idea planted within her by some entity.

It came suddenly and disappeared just as quickly.

Was it an elder in the temple... or could it really be that unknown True Dragon?

After some thought, Yuanhui stopped in his tracks, gazing at the rain outside and saying coldly, "A demon of nearly the third rank. How bold of His Majesty to test me like this."

"However, today's events will not be let go. Once my Dragon-Raising Temple overcomes this tribulation, the court must give us an explanation!"

With that, he didn't even glance at Xuan Ye. Instead, he sat down under the eaves, letting the rain soak his clothes, and quietly stared into the void.

Yuanhui's reaction left Xuan Ye bewildered. Following Yuanhui's gaze, he also looked into the void, where there was nothing but thick, dark clouds.

"Master... aren't you worried about the Dragon-Raising Temple?" Xuan Ye asked tentatively.

Yuanhui's reaction was off. Shouldn't he be extremely anxious right now? Shouldn't he be asking for his cooperation? Shouldn't he be...?

Could he truly have a trump card?

Did the True Dragon really exist?

"Life and death are determined by fate. Today is a great tribulation for my Dragon-Raising Temple. If we cannot overcome it, it means our Buddhist teachings are not profound enough, and we are summoned by the Buddha. If we overcome it, it will be the day my Dragon-Raising Temple undergoes a phoenix-like rebirth, regaining the glory of three hundred years ago," Yuanhui said calmly.

Three hundred years ago?

Xuan Ye wanted to say more, but the sky suddenly darkened.

A piercing shriek echoed, causing splitting headaches. Simultaneously, a mass of Evil Qi, the size of an acre, like a dark cloud, covered the sky above the Dragon-Raising Temple.

Endless killing intent, mixed with the wails of despair from dying beings, permeated the entire area.

"Heh heh, you bald donkeys of the Dragon-Raising Temple, get out here and die!"

"I heard you have dragon meat, bring it out for your grandpa to have a taste!"

BOOM!

The entire mass of Devilish Qi transformed into a giant, ferocious Devil face.

The Great Asura Lord has descended!

Slurp~

Beneath the Snake Abyss, Su Qingqiu swallowed hard. Drool dripped onto the ground, and his stomach rumbled with hunger.

Such a big ball of sweetness!

It must taste delicious!

It smells so good!
