"No wonder Chen Jian acts so decisively and resolutely; it turns out he has such a monstrous disciple!"
As soon as Rong Li finished speaking, the man in black robes still looked somewhat incredulous, but in his heart he had begun to believe that it was indeed an indisputable fact.
For a moment, the man in black felt as if a bottle of mixed emotions had been overturned, with all sorts of feelings intertwined inside him.
It should be noted that the Dark Temple and the Star Temple have always been at odds and incompatible.
Although no large-scale, fierce war has broken out between the two temples, neither side can bear to see the other doing well.
The Star Temple has surprisingly recruited two such exceptionally talented and gifted disciples.
If the Dark Temple does not take any action to curb it, it will not be long before the Star Temple develops to its zenith and its strength far surpasses that of itself.
At that time, the Star Temple will probably be able to ride roughshod over the Dark Temple!
Thinking of these possible scenarios, a chilling glint flashed in the black-robed man's eyes. His face darkened, and he said coldly, "Pass on my order: immediately instruct the secret guards to launch a covert assassination operation against the Star God Temple's son and daughter! They must be nipped in the bud!"
However, when the elders of the Dark Temple heard the black-robed man give this order, everyone's expression changed drastically, and they all looked astonished.
After all, such a decision was far too risky and radical, and could easily trigger a full-scale war between the two temples if not handled carefully.
But the man in black robes was determined and seemed completely unconcerned about the potentially serious consequences.
"Lord Temple Master, is there anything inappropriate about this action? If we were to secretly assassinate the Star God Temple's son and daughter, our two temples would likely be plunged into a terrifying situation of endless conflict and perpetual unrest!"
An elder with a worried expression stepped out from the crowd, his brows furrowed, and spoke in a heavy tone.
The elder was clearly worried about the plan, after all, the Star Temple was not someone to be trifled with, and if they really did it, a great war between the two temples would definitely break out immediately.
"Hmph! A fight to the death? How utterly laughable! Do you think the mighty Dark Temple would fear a mere Star Temple?"
The man in black robes roared angrily, his voice echoing in the empty hall, carrying endless majesty and coldness.
"You fools, have you even used your brains? If we let these two prodigies continue to grow, where will our Dark Temple find a place in the future!"
The man in black robes stared wide-eyed at the silent elders before him, his anger palpable.
Just then, the man in black robes suddenly flicked his sleeve and let out a cold snort, ruthlessly cutting off the words that the elders were about to say.
For a moment, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence, with only the heavy breathing of the man in black robes clearly audible.
Faced with the black-robed man in such a rage, the elders exchanged glances, each with their own opinion, but none dared to utter another word.
They knew the temperament of this palace master well; once he made a decision, he would never easily change it.
However, although everyone understood that the temple master's concerns were not without merit, it was only the distant future after all, and who could truly predict how things would actually develop?
However, if they rashly attempt to assassinate the Star Goddess and the Goddess of the Star Temple, then without a doubt, the Star Temple will engage in a life-or-death battle with their Dark Temple.
At that point, the consequences would likely be unimaginable...
"No need for further words! This matter is settled! These two must die! Elder, go immediately and inform the guards to act as soon as possible, without delay!"
After the man in black robes decisively gave his order, he didn't give anyone time to react. In a flash, he disappeared from the hall without a trace, leaving behind a group of elders standing there with varying expressions.
"Alas, it seems a great era is about to begin!"
With that heavy sigh, time seemed to freeze. After a long while, the second sentence slowly came: "Since that's the case, we have no choice but to act according to the Palace Master's orders."
At this moment, the atmosphere in that mysterious and majestic dark temple was exceptionally heavy and oppressive.
Although the man in black robes had left, his figure seemed like an unshakeable mountain. His status was so lofty and his power so immense that even the supreme elders of the Dark Temple had to bow their heads respectfully when they saw him, showing absolute obedience and respect.
The reason is simple: this man in black robes is the grandson of the Immortal King Ancestor who has been sleeping in their Dark Temple! With such a noble and illustrious background, who would dare to disobey his will?
Before long, the crowd that had gathered in the main hall began to disperse.
Everyone's steps seemed hurried and heavy, as if they were carrying a heavy burden.
The Grand Elder dared not delay for a moment. He hurried toward the location of the secret guards, keeping in mind that he had to accurately convey the Palace Master's orders to the secret guards hidden in the shadows.
...
at the same time!
In the vast and boundless Central Heaven Starfield, news spread with lightning speed. Not only did the Dark Temple learn of the Star Temple's establishment of a divine son and daughter, but many other temples also received the news.
However, the temples reacted differently. Compared to the Dark Temple's violent and impulsive actions, the other temples appeared relatively calm.
This was not because they were indifferent to the changes taking place in the Temple of the Stars, but because their relationship with the Temple of the Stars was far less tense and hostile than that with the Temple of the Dark.
Although there may be some competition between them, it is not to the point of being mortal enemies.
However, even so, the sudden emergence of the Star Goddess and Goddess still brought them considerable pressure and worry.
It should be noted that the two chosen individuals possessed extraordinary talent, bordering on the monstrous, which is truly astonishing.
Faced with such promising successors, no one can accurately predict what actions the Temple of Stars will take when they truly rise to prominence.
This uncertainty weighed heavily on the minds of all the major sects, like a thick, dark cloud.
In an instant, the previously relatively calm situation in the entire Zhongtian Star Region became turbulent.
Various factions began to secretly plot and devise countermeasures in hopes of gaining a foothold in the upcoming wave of change and seeking greater benefits.
An invisible battle has quietly begun...
