Chapter 136: Chapter 107: Your Person?

Although it was a speech delivered without expression, Ah Guna infused it with an immortal will, drawing the attention of Gong Jiu and his companions, as well as Leng She, to the Great Priest Temple he mentioned.

"What Supreme Hall? Is that the name of this temple?"

But clearly, there was no such name on the plaque...

Supreme Hall? This name does seem a bit odd...

Ah Guna paid no mind to the questions of those around him, only responding indifferently—You wouldn’t understand even if I told you.

You’re cocky!

Leng She glanced at Ah Guna but did not dwell on it, for he believed that everything would become clear once the gate was opened.

He was confident that no problem could stand in the face of his immensely powerful firepower,

At this moment, Gong Jiu was walking along the main path to the temple’s grand entrance with Sui Yi. Gong Jiu squinted his eyes and sighed, "I feel like I’m walking down the red carpet at the Oscars or a wedding aisle... What do you think, Sui Yi?"

Sui Yi remained silent, pretending not to hear. In fact, Sui Yi felt even stranger at that moment.

She didn’t know why, but it felt as though she had walked this path many times before.

This Ye family has nothing to do with her, right?

Inevitably, Sui Yi began to wonder in her heart. Thankfully, although this path seemed long, she quickly reached the end.

Just as the fear of death often speeds its arrival.

Arriving at the grand entrance of the temple, Sui Yi looked at Gong Jiu as if to say, now it’s your turn to do something~~~

Gong Jiu seemed quite unfazed at the moment, his hand caressing the gold-inlaid black lacquer surface of the gate.

"There is something peculiar about the gate of this temple," Flower Demon Yaofei frowned and said.

"The origin of the gate comes from the mouth of entry and exit for the ancients, originally called a ’hole’. During the Han Dynasty, when towering structures were built on both sides of the entrance, it became known as a ’que’. For the mansions of the powerful or the residences of nobles and royalty, shadow walls would often be erected beside the entrance," explained Sui Yi, her voice pleasant to hear. Although she spoke plainly, like reading from a book, her tone was subdued and delicate. Everyone listened attentively and instinctively glanced at the sides of the gate. Kadis smirked, "Where’s the shadow wall? There’s only a gate here!"

Kadis, being a tall and robust Russian, inherently valued the fighting spirit and martial honor of his people. He knew nothing of the cultural significance of gates, which was why he viewed Sui Yi’s words with hostility.

"It’s precisely because it’s absent that it’s strange... Miss Sui Yi, is that what you mean?" Leng She asked with a light smile.

"Such a temple, with nine sections in the style of a dragon, could only be built by nobility or the imperial family. Yet, there is no shadow wall, and not even the bronze bells that usually hang on gates. It doesn’t seem quite like a proper gate, which is indeed strange..." Leng She observed sharply, inferring clear and thorough understanding from just a single statement from Sui Yi.

Upon hearing this, Gong Jiu and the others also found it strange.

They were not new to this line of work. Despite not being in construction, they were exceedingly familiar with such matters—in simple terms, they were unofficial archaeologists.

Without a formal entrance, it would not be considered a gate, yet there was a gate without the ceremonial entrance. In such a magnificent place, they did not find the dignified symbol of a shadow wall.

If so, what kind of person could live here?

"A magnificent place like Nine Palaces, without a formal entrance or shadow wall, only one kind of place fits," Sui Yi said expressionlessly, pausing for a moment to look at Ah Guna.

"That is the Divine Temple."

The Divine Temple?!!!

Everyone was astonished.

Upon hearing this, Flower Demon Yaofei muttered, "My goodness, if this is a Divine Temple, then it’s way too extravagant, definitely a product of greedy tyrants exploiting and impoverishing the people..."

In a flash, Ah Guna’s arrow was aimed at Flower Demon Yaofei’s head.

Shen Di and the others, hostile and on guard, prepared to attack Ah Guna..

Gong Jiu became furious!

"Are you looking to turn on each other before being wiped out?"

Sui Yi glanced indifferently and said, "It’s better to die at the hands of one’s own people than at the hands of others. That’s probably what they’re thinking, right?"

Swoosh, several people simultaneously withdrew their attacks.

At that moment, the tip of Leng She’s Snake Sword was pressed against Sui Yi’s neck, chillingly cold.

Easily, with just a bit more force, his sword could decapitate her.

"Miss Sui Yi is right. If that is your line of thinking, I don’t mind lending a hand..." said Leng She.

Sui Yi fell silent. Why was it always her caught in the crossfire?

Looking at Leng She’s sword and then at Sui Yi, Gong Jiu grimaced, "Don’t rush me, I need to remember the method of opening the gate, even Doraemon needs the sesame spell to open a door, right~~"

The crowd paused for a moment.
