I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 547, page 2.1-60: The Crown: The Treasure of a Lost Dynasty
"This place... is not quite what I expected," Mu Yegui said softly, standing on the deserted street.

“Because no one dares to live at the foot of the temple. In this era, the Holy Son’s authority is no less than that of the king.” Noys sighed softly. In fact, the king had always been wary of the Holy Son, but unfortunately the main temple was not in the same city, so even if the king wanted to target him, he could not do so.

“Someone’s coming.” Noyce’s expression changed slightly. He raised one hand and placed it on the hilt of the longsword behind his back, but suddenly a hand reached out and gently placed on the back of his hand.

Noyce lowered her eyes and did not look at Mu Yegui, but her face flushed slightly before she released her grip on the sword hilt.

A man in a white cloak approached from afar, chuckling as he said to the two, "Holy Son, you have been waiting for a long time. Please follow me."

Mu Yegui and Noyce exchanged a glance, then followed.

Climbing the high steps, I arrived at a spacious room with exquisite decorations.

The man said softly, "The Holy Son will be here shortly. Please wait patiently." With that, he turned and left.

Only Mu Yegui and Noyce remained in the room, falling into a long silence.

Noyce walked to the door and glanced inside. Finding no guards, she frowned, sensing that something was amiss.

"Let's go, let's go straight to the entrance to the underground palace." Mu Yegui walked to Noyce's side and whispered to him.

"Isn't it a scam?" Noyce asked, slightly taken aback.

“The Holy Son Lanlos possesses the ability to foresee the future, so he obviously knows our purpose and what we will do. Therefore, he deliberately did not send anyone to guard us.” Mu Yegui slowly walked forward along the route he remembered.

“But shouldn’t this be a trap? They’re deliberately leading us there and then catching us all in one fell swoop,” Neusch thought to herself.

"Are you insecure about your own strength or do you not take me seriously?" Mu Yegui paused, turned to look at him, and his cold silver eyes carried a strange arrogance and confidence that was so dazzling that it was impossible to look away.

Noyce opened his mouth, but ultimately did not refute Mu Yegui, because it was the truth. He knew he was strong, and he also knew Mu Yegui was even stronger. The King was the strongest person of this era, and Mu Yegui's martial prowess was in no way inferior to the King's. Therefore, it was only natural that no one else could defeat her.

The so-called "catching a turtle in a jar" strategy only exists when one is outmatched militarily. When one is powerful enough, all schemes and tricks become completely ineffective.

“I remember Daolin said the entrance is in the bathhouse,” Noyce said softly as she followed Mu Yegui, glancing at the surrounding furnishings.

As Mu Yegui reached the bathroom door, she suddenly stopped and pursed her pink lips slightly.

Noyce subconsciously looked up at Mu Yegui, and for some reason felt that her mood had worsened. Was it just his imagination?
"So that's how it is... Is it here..." Mu Ye lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, giving people a very dangerous feeling.

"Aren't you coming in?" A soft, indulgent laugh came from inside the door.

Noyce's expression changed, and before he could think further, he heard Mu Yegui walk into the door. He was stunned for a moment and then quickly followed.

The first thing you see is a magnificent bathtub built of stone, with mist filling the entire room.

Water gurgled down from the lion's gaping mouth, making a 'whoosh whoosh' sound. A blurry figure could be vaguely seen in the bath, with long white hair. Even just the back view gave off an aura of holiness and nobility, not to be profaned.

Even standing naked in the bathtub, he couldn't exude any aloofness that would make anyone want to defile him.

He slowly turned around, his icy blue eyes fixed on Mu Yegui, a faint smile playing on his delicate and beautiful face. His long hair, wet from the water, hung down over his face, but it didn't make him look disheveled at all; instead, it gave him an elegant and refined air, like a lotus emerging from the water.

Noyce looked shocked and involuntarily took a step back, stunned by the face that was almost identical to Daolin's. If he didn't know that Daolin had short hair and that the two had completely different temperaments, he probably would have thought that the Holy Son was impersonating Daolin to deceive them.

"Want to see?" Lanlos tilted his head and looked at Mu Yegui with a light laugh.

He took a few steps forward, and as he approached, his fair and sexy collarbone was slowly revealed, followed by his strong and flat chest.

"There's no need to keep walking," Mu Yegui said calmly. "I have no interest in other people's naked bodies. I don't care if you just walk out, as long as you're not afraid of being seen naked by others."

Noyce blushed slightly and hurriedly said, "I'll wait outside!" With that, she ran out as if fleeing in panic, stumbling and looking quite disheveled.

"What does it matter? At least I scared him away." Lanlos chuckled and stepped out of the bath. Then, without any restraint in front of Mu Yegui, he picked up a towel and simply dried himself.

Crystal-clear water droplets fell one by one from her white hair to the ground.

Lanlos casually draped a bathrobe over his shoulders, looked up at Mu Yegui who hadn't shown the slightest bit of shyness from beginning to end, and said with a light laugh, "If you want to continue watching, please feel free."

"I don't think you could possibly be unaware of the time we arrived, and be taking a bath at this hour?" Mu Yegui's cool silver eyes quietly gazed at Lanlos, his expression subtly tinged with gloom and darkness.

"Because I missed you so much, I couldn't wait to get myself clean and meet you, but it seems I took a while to get clean, and you didn't even have the thought of waiting for me for a bit," Lanlos said with a troubled expression.

"Are you a teenage girl who can't wait to see her crush? You're making such a fuss about getting yourself all tidy up just to see some nobody?" Mu Yegui retorted.

Lanlos chuckled softly, his clear voice carrying a hint of ambiguous danger, and said, "Insignificant... If that's the case, then there's no one I care about..."

"You're going to the underground palace, right?" Lanlos asked again.

He paused, then added, "If you agree to cooperate with me from now on, you can visit this underground palace as many times as you like."

"It shouldn't be just a simple collaboration," Mu Yegui said calmly, glancing at Lanlos.

"I just want to understand a few things and achieve a few goals that are easy for you. I won't make things difficult for you," Lanlos said with a light laugh, his icy blue eyes holding a cold glint that lingered for a long time...

I will make up for all the debts this month.
