Everyone was stunned in place, staring blankly at the scene before them.
The Daoist Forbidden Land had existed since the founding of the Tianshu Pavilion, a millennia ago.
It is said that inside is an independent world, filled with both dangers and opportunities. According to tradition, before every Chief Successor takes office, they must enter it for training. If they can come out safely, it means they have received the Ancestor’s approval and are thus qualified to become the Sect’s successor.
And now, this tremendously significant Daoist Temple had completely collapsed before their eyes!
The flying eaves collapsed, rubble scattered, vermilion pillars fell with a crash, and the dome of the main hall seemed to be crushed by an invisible giant hand, a rolling cloud of dust blocking out the sun.
Without any warning, in just a few breaths, it turned into a ruin of broken walls!
"Lord! Master!"
Ling Ningzhi exclaimed, leaping forward.
This Daoist Temple serves as the entrance to the Forbidden Land. If it were destroyed, wouldn’t that mean Chen Mo and the Daoist Venerable could never come out?!
"Your Excellency!"
"Oh no, quickly, save them!"
The elders reacted, hastily following.
Realizing the seriousness of the issue, their hearts instantly leapt to their throats.
The Ultimate Venerable is the foundation of the Holy Sect’s development. If something were to happen to the Daoist Venerable, and the Tianshu Pavilion was left without a successor, the centuries-old legacy would be destroyed in an instant!
Among them, Xuan Ying and Zhu Huai were the fastest, arriving at the door of the Daoist Temple in the space of a breath. They exchanged a glance, and given the urgency of the situation, they disregarded any Sect prohibitions and were about to break in.
Bam—
At that moment, the tightly closed door was kicked open.
Amidst the devastation, a tall figure walked out slowly.
Chen Mo, in an ink-colored robe untouched by dust, with a face like jade, eyes bright as stars, was holding a white-clad Daoist Nun in his arms. Her pale cheeks were devoid of color, resting against his chest with a fragile air that evoked compassion.
The two, both in appearance and temperament, were exceedingly well-matched, like an immortal couple, evoking a sense of perfect harmony.
"Your, Your Excellency?"
Xuan Ying’s expression froze, and silence descended instantly.
"Lord, Master, you’re alright? That’s wonderful!" Ling Ningzhi ran over, like a swallow returning to the forest, exclaiming, "You scared me, I thought you might never come out again!"
Chen Mo, with one hand supporting the Daoist Venerable, freed up the other to embrace Ling Ningzhi’s waist with skilled ease, and said with a smile, "I said I would bring the Daoist Venerable back safely, and I wouldn’t go back on my word."
"Lord, you’re the best!" Ling Ningzhi nodded vigorously.
"..."
Seeing the three of them so close, Xuan Ying’s face turned very unpleasant.
Previously, Chen Mo had proclaimed madly that he would learn the way of consuming from a daughter-in-law, which was outrageous enough, and now he dared to show such disrespect to the Daoist Venerable?!
