\”What… Izisha's corpse was chopped into pieces?\” Both Haylon and Shawshank were infuriated.
A few older Golden Sun Knights were furious too.
Izisha was their previous Goddess. Many had devoted their lives to her. The Golden Sun Knights were willing to risk their lives to take down anyone with the slightest disrespect to her!
\”How is that possible? Did you make a mistake!?\” Haylon demanded in disbelief.
\”The Great Muse said perhaps Asha'ruiya has always held a grudge against Izisha for voting the Stone of Guilt. She took hold of the opening amid the chaos to get her revenge. It doesn't matter if she did it or not, we have to stop her from leaving the Mountain of the Goddess,\” Lanjin said.
\”But… she already went into the magic formation!\”
\”I will lead some men and go down the mountain through the Starry Mountain Path, to intercept her and prevent the Black Totem Snake from leaving with the offender, Ye Xinxia,\” Lanjin stated.
\”Alright, Vice Hall Master Lanjin, you will bring these men to the other side of the magic formation!\” Haylon immediately dispensed his men to Lanjin without hesitation.
Lanjin led the elites among the knights and quickly proceeded to the mountain path. It was the only way down the mountain without being targeted by the magic formation.
The knights and Adjudicators led by Haylon and Shawshank were occupied with the battle against the Black Totem Snake. They were totally unaware of what was going on at the top of the mountain. Asha'ruiya had only gone to the Hall of the Goddess when she had sensed that a great conspiracy was taking place, and she had almost died because of it!

After entering the magic formation, Asha'ruiya raised her head and glanced at the Skyscraping Snake.
The magic formation was not targeting her. After all, her adoptive father was the one that set up the magic formation. No one was more familiar with it than Asha'ruiya.
\”Mo Fan, I will bring you guys out of the magic formation!\” Asha'ruiya yelled at the Black Totem Snake.
Mo Fan and Xinxia were being targeted by the magic formation too. If the Black Totem Snake had not protected them, the magic formation would have turned them into ashes long ago.
Mo Fan was a little suspicious when he saw Asha'ruiya. However, he decided to believe in her. If she was actually trying to set them up, she just needed to stand aside and watch.
\”Big guy, don't hurt her,\” Mo Fan said to the Black Totem Snake.
The Black Totem Snake moved his tail and scooped Asha'ruiya up, lifting her to his head.
Asha'ruiya landed on the Black Totem Snake's head. The wild energy of the magic formation suddenly halted, allowing the Black Totem Snake to catch his breath.
\”Ask the snake to move toward the valley, I'll clear a path for you,\” Asha'ruiya blurted out with a grim look.
Mo Fan immediately relayed the information to the Black Totem Snake.
The Black Totem Snake was struggling to move inside the magic formation. He would trigger strong traps if he was too careless.
However, when following Asha'ruiya's instructions, the Black Totem Snake clearly sensed that the magic formation was growing weaker, allowing him to move closer toward the exit.
\”You're injured?\” Mo Fan quickly noticed that Asha'ruiya had scorch marks on her.
\”The whole thing is a conspiracy!' Asha'ruiya said.
\”What happened?\” Mo Fan asked.
\”The four Saintesses aren't the candidates of the election; the only candidate is the previous Goddess, Izisha!\” Asha'ruiya snapped furiously.
\”Isn't that woman dead already?\” Mo Fan said.
\”Yes, or so everyone thought, but you forgot that the Parthenon Temple has the Spell of Resurrection!\” Asha'ruiya said.
Spell of Resurrection!
The Parthenon Temple had such an exalted status mainly because of their Spell of Resurrection. However, the role of the Goddess had been unoccupied for quite some years, thus no one had seen the Spell of Resurrection for years!
