Chapter 753: The Location of the Abyss 2
The doors to the Holy Church's main hall were gently pushed open, and Yu Muhan cautiously peered inside.
Bright sunlight streamed through the carved windowpanes, creating dappled patterns on the floor and walls.
The light and shadow are dazzling, dreamlike and enchanting.
A man dressed in a spotless white robe sat high on the main seat, one hand supporting his forehead, his eyes closed as if he were dozing.
In his other hand he held a scepter, with a dazzling pearl emitting a rich white light at the top.
Yu Muhan pursed his lips. He was the founder, ruler, and leader of the Holy Sect.
The sound of the door opening made the Holy Master open his eyes, his cold and sharp gaze fixed on Yu Muhan.
Yu Muhan's back was stiff.
That penetrating gaze again!
"You've arrived?" the Holy Lord said in a low voice.
Yu Muhan smiled slightly and bowed to the Holy Master, saying, "Holy Master."
The Holy Lord, holding his scepter, stood up and stepped down from his seat, slowly approaching Yu Muhan.
His approaching steps made Yu Muhan subconsciously want to retreat. He clenched his fist tightly in his sleeve, and the stinging pain from his nails scratching his palm brought him back to his senses.
Do not back down, do not hide!
Calm down, he probably won't do anything to her... Yu Muhan thought to herself.
Finally, the man's boots embroidered with silver thread patterns came into the girl's view. A strong and domineering aura poured out from him, like vines tightly binding her limbs.
Suddenly, Yu Muhan felt her chin being lifted by the man, forcing her to raise her face to meet his eyes.
The Holy Cult Leader carefully examined Yu Muhan's face. After a long while, he nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, it's a good-looking face."
Yu Muhan bit her lip and remained silent.
The Holy Lord noticed the fear in her eyes: "Are you afraid of me?"
"...How could I be afraid of you, Holy Leader?" Yu Muhan's lips trembled slightly as he forced a smile. "I wonder what business the Holy Leader has with me?"
Upon hearing this, a strange light flashed in the Holy Lord's dark eyes, and he released his grip on the girl's chin.
The man glanced at her slowly and deliberately: "Come with me."
Yu Muhan dared not say more and could only speed up to keep up with the Holy Master's pace.
On the other side of the Holy Lord's Hall was a door. The Holy Lord waved his scepter, and a beam of light flew out from the jewel, easily pushing the door open.
Stepping out the door, there was a deep, dark corridor, without a single light or candle, like a bottomless pit with no end in sight.
Looking at the long corridor, Yu Muhan felt a strange sense of foreboding rising in her heart.
The two walked one after the other until they came to the door of a well-hidden room.
The Holy Leader opened the door and went inside. Yu Muhan stood at the door and looked at everything in the room—it seemed to be a bedroom, with a bed, table and chairs, cabinets and boxes for storing various odds and ends... basically complete.
However, this room has no windows.
Why did the Holy Lord bring her here?
Before Yu Muhan could react, an invisible force instantly pulled her into the room, and with a bang, the door was slammed shut!
Yu Muhan was startled. She immediately turned around to open the door, but in the dark room, a hand suddenly reached out from behind and grabbed her waist tightly.
His strength was terrifying; in a dizzying moment, Yu Muhan was thrown onto the bed—
