After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

For the first time, Lu Sijian realized that the extradition process would take much longer than she had imagined.

Her body traversed the torrent of time and crossed space. After a long period of time, she saw the star-studded center of the universe.

This is where stars are born, a place so beautiful it's like a dream.

At the end of the passage, a handsome man dressed in a star-patterned brocade robe, with long, black hair tied up, looked at her from afar.

His eyes were as black as ink, yet they shimmered with a deep blue halo, like a tranquil lake or a dazzling starry sky.

Lu Sijian was taken aback: "Master, is that you?"

She had just stepped out of the space-time rift when two spells attacked her, which the black-haired priest raised her hand to block.

Priest No. 9's expression suddenly changed. "Lord No. 3, I just wanted to arrest her!"

This is far too domineering. He didn't intend to hurt anyone, so why won't he even allow being tied up?

The black-haired priest said calmly, "She is a guest of the temple; this is not in accordance with etiquette."

Number 14 said sarcastically, "Lord Number 3, are you really going to protect this criminal? She killed Lord Number 2; she's a vicious criminal!"

The other priests echoed this sentiment.

"Yes, we all saw it with our own eyes. I think there's no need for them to go to trial; let's just execute them on the spot!"

"This is outrageous! No one has ever dared to kill a god before. Who gave you the guts?"

Lu Sijian roughly understood why this No. 3 insisted on waiting for her in the time-space tunnel.

Every priest present wanted to tear her to pieces.

She looked at the glaring priest and said, "Never before? It seems you are still too inexperienced. This kind of situation will happen more often in the future, so you should get used to it soon."

The fourth priest was stunned for a moment, her eyes widening in disbelief. Was she provoking them? She had killed someone, fallen into their temple, and yet dared to challenge them!

"You bastard! Who do you think you are? Do you want to kill a god or something?" The fourth priest was furious.

"Kneel down! Kneel down and repent now!"

An invisible pressure spread out, and Lu Sijian's knees buckled, but she was supported by a gentle force.

“You don’t need to kneel.” The black-haired priest grasped her arm and pulled her up.

Now everyone's attention was focused on the black-haired priest.

Number 14, with his flamboyant red hair and a gloating expression, said, "So it turns out our Number 3 has fallen for someone else."

He had long noticed that Number 3's protection of Lu Sijian was extraordinary, but he didn't dare to say it at the time, for fear that the other priests would say he was spreading rumors.

After all, over the centuries, Number 3 has managed hundreds of small worlds without ever showing any bias. He has always been meticulous and strictly followed the rules. No small world has ever been destroyed under his supervision, and no mission taker has ever been convicted of a serious crime.

Fairness and rules are his yardstick, and no one can trample on them.

Therefore, the opponent is not only the strongest being in the temple, but also the most feared.

Because he is free from desires and thoughts, he can be absolutely impartial, which is why he can be a law enforcer.

But now, what if this enforcer has become selfish and driven by desire? Can he still maintain absolute impartiality and gain the trust of the temple's priests?

Number 4 pointed at Lu Sijian in disbelief: "Lord Number 3, you really fell in love with such an ant?"

At the head of the long table, Priest Number 1 sighed: "Number 3, what do you have to say?"

The black-haired priest looked at his colleagues, his expression calm. "What rule in the temple forbids one from liking a mission taker?"

There is no such rule in the temple, because the gods are high above, how could they possibly like an ant?

What shocked everyone even more was that he actually admitted it!

Is this crazy?

Priest No. 7 paused for a moment before saying, "Have you been bewitched by her? Wake up! She has already killed one of our colleagues..."

The black-haired priest said, "From the moment Number 2 abandoned his physical body and fled, he ceased to be a priest. Since he is no longer a priest, he is not under the jurisdiction of the temple, and we have no right to hold Lu Sijian accountable."

He had only planned to launch a sneak attack on the 14th when his dark eyes swept over them sharply, "Who dares to make a move?"

He made it clear that he was determined to protect Lu Sijian, and for a time no one dared to touch him.

The situation reached a stalemate for the time being.

Number 1 sighed and had no choice but to get up from his seat, whispering a warning, "Number 3, hand her over to me. Your current situation isn't suitable for you to take her with you. Continuing like this will only incite everyone's anger and make it even harder to gain their support. When you asked for a pardon, you wanted to give it to her, didn't you? Do you think she can still get a pardon if things continue like this?"

The black-haired priest seemed to be persuaded, and his eyes flickered slightly.

Number 1 patted him on the shoulder and whispered, "Don't worry, I will send him to your palace intact."

He was, after all, an elder among the priests. Although he had gradually taken charge of the smaller worlds less in recent years, he remained the most respected leader of the temple.

The black-haired priest lowered his eyes, tacitly agreeing to let him take Lu Sijian away.

Number 1 couldn't help but raise a slight smile, but quickly suppressed it and said to the other priests, "Alright, I'll take the person away and keep him under guard. Everyone, calm down for a couple of days."

He raised his hand, intending to use his magic to restrain Lu Sijian, but upon meeting the black-haired priest's tense gaze, he lowered his hand again.

He then beckoned two white-clad servants to guard Lu Sijian, and the group prepared to leave.

At that moment, a violent commotion suddenly came from deep within the temple.

Tiny specks of light spilled out.

"This is bad, it's the forbidden area!" The officials' expressions all changed.

What lies within the forbidden area is unknown to the people of the divine kingdom, but it is something that the priests guard throughout their lives, and it is the very foundation of the divine kingdom's existence.

They firmly believed that as long as they could awaken the will to survive in those brains and utilize the power of the small world's fortune through regeneration techniques, they could grow plump flesh and blood and revive their people.

But the forbidden area had been silent for thousands of years. No matter how exciting the live broadcasts in the small world were, or how intense the discussions in the comments were, there had never been such a commotion.

A group of priests rushed into the depths of the temple, wanting to find out what had happened.

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the No. 1 priest. He gave the two white-robed attendants a wink, then turned and pretended to follow his colleagues toward the forbidden area.

The two white-clad waiters had already planned when to make their move.

"Come with us," one of them said impatiently. As divine servants, they had spent over a hundred years in the temple and had learned some magic.

How could an ordinary person from a small world possibly escape alive from their clutches today?

He reached out and gave Lu Sijian a push, "This way!"

Because he was acting with malice, he used a bit of force in that strike.

But Lu Sijian's body actually floated out with his force... Wait, something's not right!

Following that force, Lu Sijian turned and lunged at Priest No. 1.

The dagger in his hand, imbued with a murderous aura from drinking blood, pierced towards the No. 1 priest with unparalleled sharpness.

The first priest sensed something was wrong and, without hesitation, struck at Lu Sijian.

But Lu Sijian didn't dodge or avoid the issue. She said that this kind of situation would become more frequent and that they should get used to it sooner rather than later. It was truly a well-intentioned reminder.

Because from the very beginning, she never intended to let go of the No. 1 priest—the devil who possessed the old master of the Wang family, wantonly toyed with children, and killed many children!
