Chapter 348 (1/2)

Reverse Purification Formation (1)

Feng Xing knew it would be useless to meet the Archbishops now. Ye Lang was already inside, so this was more urgent.

Sixth floor. Ceiling.

Only Ye Lang would’ve thought of something like this- but it was effective indeed.

It is only natural for people to have blind spots, to think that walls can be a form of solid protection. In this case, they were blind spots.

Many people quickly noticed their blind spots, i.e. the guards who almost broke down the door to rush in.

“You… You…” these guards were speechless, some of them staring straight at the ceiling.

If Ye Lang had entered the room alone, these Light Riders may only know about it when Feng Xing sent them a message.

However, there were also three other people and also the Light Riders behind them to enter the room through the hole- very dramatic scene indeed. If the guards behind the door still didn’t realise there were intruders, they wouldn’t have been qualified for the job.

They were filled with regret now. Why didn’t they think of the ceiling? There were defences from both rooms next to this room, but the ceiling!

Yep, there were also guards and defences set up in the rooms on both sides of the Sacred Lady’s room. If anyone wanted to enter through breaking down walls, they would have to get through these guards first.

This was perhaps why Ye Lang decided to head upstairs, he must’ve seen the guards in the rooms nearby and decided to save himself the trouble.

He also anticipated some resistance upstairs but was relieved to see no defences in the room above.

Compared to breaking through every layer of defence downstairs, this was so much easier.

“What do we do now?” asked the Light Riders in charge of guarding the room. They didn’t know what to do now, and could only watch and ask the person with the highest position here.

“What CAN we do? Inform the Pope and the archbishops, let them handle this. I don’t think we can do much now,” said the leader, giving instructions in exasperation. They needed someone with higher authority to handle this matter.

They were in charge of guarding the room, but not of handling intruders. If this was another person, they would’ve dealt with him very quickly.

However, Ye Lang was a very special person in this region, and there were many ‘accomplices’ with him too. This was beyond their power.

This wasn’t within the job scope.

This entire incident made it seem like a competition, one side won, and the losing side could only shrug and not continue.
