In the afternoon, the disciples gathered at the back of the mountain to hold a funeral for the deputy hall masters, elders, protectors, deacons and disciples who had sacrificed their lives on this mission.
Lin Yun didn’t attend because he was healing his wounds, and the Grand Elder had specifically instructed not to disturb Lin Yun’s healing, and to wait for him to finish chatting about his wounds. Then he could go to the tomb and make a sacrifice.
After an afternoon of healing, under the effect of the pills, Lin Yun’s meridians were successfully restored.
However,……, the side effects of the Heavenly Strength Pill hadn’t dissipated yet, and for the next week or so at least, Lin Yun would be in a period of weakness.
After healing his wounds, Lin Yun arrived at the back mountain cemetery after asking the deacon for directions.
At this time. It was already sunset and the afterglow spilled over the land.
In front of Elder Xiong’s tomb.
Lin Yun knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Elder Xiong.
”Master, my disciple has won the championship. You definitely wouldn’t have thought that my disciple would win the championship, right? Lin Yun looked at the tombstone.
Lin Yun could imagine how happy Elder Xiong would be if he was still around.
Originally aiming for the top three, Lin Yun had hardened himself to win the championship.
”Don’t worry, Master, the scourge of the demonic beasts, we will definitely eradicate it, as well as the Dark Shadow Sect! I, Lin Yun, will definitely exterminate it, and I will definitely take revenge for you! Lin Yun’s tone was firm.
At the end of his words, Lin Yun had choked up a little and his eyes became moist.
Lin Yun was also clear in his heart that in the face of the scourge of demonic beasts, there were bound to be many people who would pay the price of their lives, and cultivators would be the first to bear the brunt.
However, when there were people around him who had really sacrificed, Lin Yun’s heart was hard to bear, but it was blocked.
After kowtowing again, Lin Yun came back to the side, in front of Senior Brother Shi Zhen’s grave.
”Eldest senior brother, the last time we sparred, we agreed to spar again in the future. Elder brother, however, you did not keep your word and just left ……
Looking at the tombstone, Lin Yun was silent for half a second before uttering a sentence in a low tone:
Don’t worry senior brother, I’ll fulfil my duties as senior brother and won’t let everyone be bullied.
A few moments later, Lin Yun came back to the tombstone of the deputy hall master.
Speaking of which, Lin Yun hadn’t met the Deputy Hall Master yet and didn’t know what he looked like.
However, he had helped himself several times, and Lin Yun had once thought that if he could meet him, he would thank him in person.
Now it seemed that Lin Yun was afraid that he would never know, what the Vice Hall Master looked like.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yun kowtowed to the Vice Hall Master.
”Vice Hall Master, thank you for helping me.”
Lin Yun knew that they had died for the world even though they were unknown, their deaths were great!
At this moment, Lin Yun’s heart truly yearned beyond measure. To have the strength to be able to dominate the world!
That way, Lin Yun could exterminate those bast*rds if he wanted to, and could protect whoever he wanted to!
Vice Temple Master, Elder Xiong, Senior Brother, I, Lin Yun, swear before your graves that from now on, I, Lin Yun, will not share the same fate as the Shadow Sect and the Demon Race! I’ll do everything in my power to fight the Shadow Sect and the Demon Race!
Lin Yun swore to the heavens, his tone resolute!
At that moment, a figure landed behind Lin Yun.
Lin Yun turned his head to see that it was the Grand Elder.
Grand Elder! Lin Yun immediately arched his hand and saluted.
I heard the deacon say that you came to the back of the mountain, so I guess, your meridians have recovered. The Grand Elder said.
Thank you for your concern, Great Elder. The meridians have recovered. Lin Yun said while wiping the corners of his eyes.
I’m here to give you the champion’s reward, this is ten thousand spirit stones. The Grand Elder directly took out the spirit stones.
Thank you, Grand Elder.
Lin Yun took the spirit stones and put them into his jade pendant space.
This was Lin Yun’s trophy. Lin Yun naturally wouldn’t be polite.
”Lin Yun, although your master is gone, the sanctuary is still here, so if you have any difficulties or needs, you can tell me.” The Grand Elder said.
Great Elder ……, I do have something missing right now, I urgently need 10,000 spirit stones, can the Great Elder lend me 10,000. When I earn it back by participating in the activities later, I will return it to you. Lin Yun revealed a flash of embarrassment.
Lin Yun had counted, counting the spirit stones Hou Gui owed him, he already had 30,000 spirit stones, and was still short 10,000 spirit stones.
”Lin Yun, this ten thousand spirit stones, count it as my personal gift to you, I appreciate you.”
The Grand Elder said as he spoke. While waving his hand around, he took out ten thousand spirit stones.
This ……
Lin Yun heard that the Grand Elder wanted to gift himself, but instead, he was a little embarrassed.
”Great Elder, count this as something I borrowed, I’ll definitely pay it back later.” Lin Yun said.
Lin Yun wasn’t a disciple of the Grand Elder’s seat, so naturally he didn’t have the face to receive this 10,000 spirit stones for free.
”Haha, it’s good that you have your own principles, so fine.” The Grand Elder nodded with a smile.
Only then did Lin Yun accept the ten thousand spirit stones.
Taking this ten thousand spirit stones, Lin Yun’s heart completely warmed up.
This was because it meant that he had gathered enough spirit stones for his second stage YuanYing impact!
Next, one only needed to take the time to digest these spirit stones to reach second stage YuanYing!
”Grand Elder, regarding the matter of the Dark Shadow Sect, since the Demon King that is hibernating in the Dark Shadow Sect has already been seriously injured. Why doesn’t the Sanctuary go in with a bang and attack once more, taking advantage of its illness. Exterminate the Shadow Sect and that demon king to eliminate any future problems! Lin Yun had a serious face.
”This, we’ve also considered it, there happens to be a meeting later on. We’ll discuss what happens next with the hall master. The Grand Elder spoke in a serious manner.
Lin Yun nodded and didn’t say much more, the higher echelons of the sanctuary should take this into consideration.
It’s almost time, I have to go to the meeting.
After the Grand Elder finished speaking. He directly flew up in the air and left the place.
……
Sacred Temple Great Hall.
All the elders gathered in the great hall, Protector Jiang had already taken over the position of the fifth elder, so he also came.
The imposing Hall Master, sitting on the throne in front, was majestic without losing his poise.
The Grand Elder told the Hall Master about the Vice Hall Master’s actions this time, one by one.
The Hall Master’s complexion became grave after hearing the report.
The Shadow Sect awakened a Demon King, it is indeed unexpected, but the Shadow Sect made preparations in advance and set up an ambush in advance, this is enough to show that within our Temple, there is a traitor, this mission, it is bound to be leaked! The Temple Master said seriously.
The third elder rose and said: hall master, this is something that we have also considered, but this mission, only a few of us elders know about it, even before we set off, the disciples, protectors, and deacons who participated in the mission did not know the content of the mission.
The hall master’s gaze condensed as he swept the entire room below: if this is the case, the problem is even more serious, because it shows that amongst you and the others, there is an insider traitor!
When the five elders below heard this, all of their faces changed slightly.
As Elders, they were already in the top echelons of the Holy Temple, knowing the secrets of the Holy Temple, they definitely knew more than ordinary disciples, deacons, and protectors.
If an elder betrayed the Holy Temple and worked undercover in the Holy Temple, it would definitely be a very frightening thing, and would even be disastrous for the Holy Temple.
The third elder immediately said: hall master, all of us elders, we have all stayed in the holy temple for hundreds of years, and we are all loyal to the holy temple to the loyalists!
