While Yang Lujia headed in the direction he pointed at, another surge of airships arrived in front of the Sacred Region's main entrance. It was unimaginable how much the Sacred Region had exhausted several of their Bracelets of Lights for these outsiders. However, since it was the order of their Holy Light Palace, they did not dare dally and willingly took the opportunity to welcome these people.

No matter how arrogant these people had become, they had no other choice but to succumb.

"Is there anything that the people from 'that' palace need?"

The one who spoke was a man with a dignified face. His voice was someone hoarse due to his old age. Despite that, his cultivation realm could not be underestimated. Even the five people, who were wearing white miters and would be considered extremely powerful, were bowing to this man.

All the five felt a chill in their hearts the moment the old man asked about this. From their reactions, it could be inferred that the people had been making it hard for them to dutifully and obediently follow what was instructed for them to do.

"Is there something wrong? Why are all your expressions like that?" Lord Lin asked with a solemn look on his face. "Did someone make it difficult for you? Or are you trying to make it difficult for them? If it's the latter, then I would make you wish not to live anymore."

Although the man in front of them was a devout believer of the Holy Light Emperor, an epitome of light and life, his methods were extremely ruthless for someone so holy as him. Lord Lin once tortured an enemy that had managed to invade the Sacred Region. The five people present were also present at that time. They were frightened about what Lord Lin told them. It might not seem like a threat—but it actually was.

Not daring to look up, the five people shamelessly remained their heads bowed. However, just as they wanted to continue doing the same act and play like they didn't know anything, Lord Ling suddenly released a pressure that could topple mountains and rivers. "Do you want to talk or should I set an example for you? I can easily replace any one of you to become the new set of archbishops! Not heeding my question is tantamount to capital punishment. The Holy Light Emperor specifically left a message to us that we should take care of these people here."

The five archbishops knelt on the ground in defeat. While they were just slightly bowing earlier, they really did not have the strength to resist Lord Lin's astonishing aura. This could be seen in how many years had the Sacred Region been uninvaded or unharmed by any foreign people who managed to come inside with dirty thoughts.

"I am the Cardinal! You are just mere archbishops. How dare you not heed my question? If it was before, I wasn't ordering you, right at this moment, I am."

He was the Cardinal!

A rank above the archbishops!

Although there was only one gap between a Cardinal and an archbishop, the gap wasn't small at all. A Cardinal could easily suppress someone at the level of an archbishop.

"Yes, Lord Lin!" An archbishop immediately stepped forward, even under pressure. "There is indeed something wrong. While we are backed by someone like Holy Light Palace, it is not absolute backing. Meanwhile, the young prince who had come to us as a guest had a behemoth palace backing him up. If we were to offend him, he would certainly not rest until he's satisfied."

Another archbishop also expressed his opinion. "Lord Lin, that young prince was indeed insufferably arrogant with his words."

"Oh?" Cardinal Lin was intrigued. "Tell me more. If our side indeed suffered from his arrogance, I'm afraid I can't let this matter rest."

His face was already cold but it was even magnified by his voice's hoarseness. It was loud that the five archbishops felt their blood rushing up to their heads.

"These past days, that young prince tried to assault a member of a large family under me. She was the family's youngest daughter of the Lan Clan's Chief. She just recently came back after hearing something happen to her family. It turned out that the young prince was the one who framed her into something just so he could use her to his liking," the archbishop said as he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

The other archbishops were equally angered by that young prince's arrogance. Even Cardinal Lin was no different. He also had a cold look on his face—even colder than it was before.

"Does he have any experts protecting him in the dark?" Cardinal Lin asked.

"No, Lord Lin! Fortunately, that brat was alone! Otherwise, it would have been hard for us to make our move. If we really didn't make a move that day, that poor young girl would have already been fucked by that bastard!"

"Watch your words," Cardinal Lin reminded. "As much as I want to teach him a lesson, the order of the Holy Light Emperor still stands by. However, if he dares something like that again, I'm afraid that I will stand by the principles of the Holy Light Palace. If the Holy Light Palace would really feign denial over this matter, for not following what they ordered, even if it means offending the Holy Light Emperor, I would do it. His principles should be the same as ours. If he were in our position, what would our Holy Light Emperor do?"

The five archbishops' faces lit up as they began seeing Cardinal Lin in a new light. Although Cardinal Lin was extremely strict with the rules, he was even stricter in terms of the principles of the Holy Light. Therefore, he willingly chose to stand against the young prince. Even if there happened to be experts hiding and secretly monitoring their movements, he would not back down even if he died.

"Where is the young prince, now? Do you have any leads as to where he had gone to in the Sacred Region?"

The Sacred Region was actually so large, much larger than the Third Region. It could be said to be approximately six times larger than the other. Therefore, despite his strong cultivation, Cardinal Lin still asked about that young prince's whereabouts.

When he also scanned the area where he was stationed at, he also did not notice any different auras. It seemed like they were not in his territory. Thus, he could only ask.

"Lord Lin, he's actually right now in the Lan Clan's manure, temporarily resting. I believe that we are only able to quell his thirst for that poor Lan girl. Therefore, we came here to ask for your help. Initially, we were afraid, but now that Lord Lin is accompanying us, we can finally feel at ease."

With his red miter, he waved his crimson robe and stood from his seat. On his right hand was a staff with a green stone that symbolized life itself. If Yang Lujia were here, he would have noticed that green stone that emitted a denser amount of the rules of life and light intertwined. While it could mainly be used for healing, it was also proficient for attacks and more so on defense.

However, this was only a weapon that Cardinal Lin could use, and never did the archbishops see him use it—but it was always with him. Before, Cardinal Lin could basically eliminate all his enemies with just a gaze or a wave of his hand at most. That was how powerful he was in their eyes. However, little did they know that the array formation they thought that only invincible figures could break through was at risk of collapse.

Yang Lujia proceeded with care into the depths of the array formation's core. He was still not certain if there were any existences like the Void tree or the three seniors he had encountered. If there were really people like that, he would immediately back down. However, his instincts told him that he would not meet any mishaps during this trip. Even bringing Yin Hang and Cai Hong with him would not make him feel burdened to secure their lives.

Therefore, he somewhat felt at ease.

"Cai Hong, Yin Hang," he called out. "We must proceed with care. The core of the array formation was something laid out by someone who was so strong. Moreover, I felt like there was something that meets the eye. After all, the array formation was something that even I had not seen anywhere."

"Yes, Senior Brother Lu!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Both obediently agreed to it.

Meanwhile, there was one person who was sitting just in front of the array formation's core. He seemed to be in a meditative state. What was more astonishing was the color of the miter—it was actually blue!

That only meant one thing. He was someone with a higher rank than a Cardinal! An Arch-Cardinal!

What was even more astonishing was the mountain of things surrounding him. All of these things were emitting the rules of light and life.

Bracelets of Light!
