NOVPUB"Xue’er, please sit!"
"No need to stand on ceremony, help yourself to anything!"
"See what you like to eat here and feel free to take it!"
"Thank you, Uncle Murong!"
Murong Xue’er nodded politely, then walked to the side, picked up some pastries from the table, and began to eat.
"Miss Xue’er!"
"No need to be so formal, just call me Murong Tianyu!"
Murong Tianyu, seeing Murong Xue’er being so reserved, spoke up to her.
"Yes, Uncle Murong Tianyu!"
Lin Yi replied with a smile, also picking up pastries from the table to eat, and while eating, he praised, "Uncle Murong, these pastries are really delicious, sweeter and more delicious than any I’ve had before!"
"Hehe!"
"Master Lin, I’m glad you like them!"
Murong Tianyu, hearing this, nodded with a smile and responded to Lin Yi.
"Yes, Uncle Murong Tianyu, I won’t be shy then!"
"Anyway, I have to thank you for finding me such a good place. The environment of this mansion is really nice; I like it!"
"I’ll come here often for meals in the future and can play with Xue’er too!"
"Haha, I’m glad you like it!"
When Murong Tianyu heard Lin Yi wanted to stay frequently at the Martial Holy Temple, he laughed heartily and spoke to Lin Yi.
"We’ll leave it at that for now and go inside for a tour in a minute!"
Murong Tianyu nodded.
Afterward, the two chatted for a while and then walked toward the grand hall of the Martial Holy Temple.
At this moment, the grand hall of the Martial Holy Temple was already filled with people, most of whom were around fifty or sixty years old, dressed in uniform attire, and gathered in a circle around the hall, engaged in animated discussions. 𝘯𝑜𝑣𝑝𝑢𝘣.𝑐𝑜𝑚
The atmosphere here was also very lively, and Murong Tianyu quickly noticed this, his expression immediately darkened, and he thought to himself: Damn it!
He realized someone was trying to seize all the Murong Family’s assets and occupy all its resources, which infuriated him.
"Master Lin, Miss Xue’er, feel free to choose any room!"
Murong Tianyu hurriedly said to Lin Yi and Murong Xue’er.
"Okay! Thank you, Uncle Murong!"
"Thank you, Uncle Murong!"
Lin Yi and Murong Xue’er also responded to Murong Tianyu.
Without any hesitation, Lin Yi and Murong Xue’er chose a room and walked inside.
"What exactly are these two people? So arrogant, daring to stay here in the Martial Holy Temple!"
"Hmph! They must not be ordinary people, definitely sent by some major family!"
"I didn’t expect to run into this; I won’t be polite now!"
A guard snorted coldly, a hint of murderous intent in his eyes as he walked toward that room, intending to rob it.
...
Martial Holy Temple Great Hall.
"Is that young man the owner of the Martial Holy Temple? Who is he?"
An elder of the Murong family saw Lin Yi inside the grand hall of the Martial Holy Temple, a flash of surprise in his eyes, and he couldn’t help asking.
"Ah! That’s the kid! I can’t believe he actually came to our Murong Family, and especially on the date the Martial Saint Conference was being held—he just barged in so boldly, it’s simply outrageous!"
"He did this to surely snatch our Murong Family’s resources! We must stop him!"
Another elder also spoke, frowning.
"This Lin Yi, I think he doesn’t know at all that our Murong Family has the Martial Holy Temple, so he is being so arrogant!"
"This person is like a country bumpkin, completely unaware of how powerful our Murong Family is! We have so many masters here, and he only has two people; how could we be afraid of him?"
"Indeed! However, he is too arrogant, does he not know the strength of our Murong Family? He is acting so recklessly!"
"He is seeking death! We will not let him go this time!"
The other elders also began talking, their tones filled with murderous intent.
At this moment, Murong Tianyu’s older brother also spoke up.
"Enough, stop arguing!"
"The Martial Holy Temple is personally attended by the Martial Saint, and no challenge is allowed!"
"If you don’t want to invite trouble, then don’t provoke him, otherwise, even our Murong Family cannot protect you!"
"Hmph!"
"Don’t forget, the Martial Holy Temple is personally attended by the Martial Saint; they control supreme power. If you don’t obey the rules, the Martial Saint will not care about your life or death!"
Murong Tianyu also scolded upon hearing this.
These elders, feeling very displeased upon hearing this, dared not say anything more, as the Martial Saint holds supreme authority in their hearts.
"Alright, today is the grand ceremony of the Martial Holy Temple, let’s not argue any further; we’ll settle accounts with that kid after the ceremony!
"Then, I want to see just what skills that darn kid has!"
"Yes, that wretched kid is utterly brash, daring to intrude into the Martial Holy Temple, and behaving so arrogantly in our Martial Holy City!"
The rest of the group of elders also began to curse and swear.
"Hmph, I want to see what skills this wretched kid has, daring to break into our Murong Family!"
Murong Tianyu, upon hearing this, his eyes also sparked with a flash of cold light, speaking coldly.
"Alright, stop arguing, after the ceremony starts, we will properly settle accounts with this kid!"
"At that time, I will personally capture this kid and tear him into a thousand pieces, to dispel the hatred in my heart!"
On the sidelines, Murong Xue’er, seeing Murong Tianyu and several elders arguing, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling very worried.
After all, these elders are greatly skilled, and although Lin Yi is strong, he is still a Primary Level Martial Saint, facing these major powers, he is somewhat at a disadvantage.
She really fears these elders might harm Lin Yi.
On the side, Lin Yi’s gaze was also fixed on Murong Xue’er, as if he could see into what she was thinking.
"Miss Xue’er, don’t worry about me, with me here, they can’t hurt me!"
Lin Yi said with a smile, trying to comfort her.
Upon hearing this, Murong Xue’er’s face also flushed with a hint of red, then she lowered her head, afraid to look at Lin Yi, worried she might fall into his smile.
"Hmph! What are you two still doing standing there? Go prepare the food and drinks, and welcome the Martial Saint!"
An elder of the Murong Family also commanded sharply.
"Yes!"
Upon hearing the command, everyone immediately responded and hurriedly left to get busy.
Murong Tianyu and that elder, seeing this, exchanged glances and also left the area.
Just then, Lin Yi turned his head and looked towards Murong Tianyu, his eyes narrowing slightly and the corners of his mouth curling into a smirk, a mischievous sparkle flashing in his eyes.
Seeing Lin Yi’s expression, a foreboding feeling rose in Murong Tianyu’s heart.
