Chapter 792: Lawless and Unbridled

"Come on, kid. Time to get my task for you done," said Old Urchin.

"Senior Urchin, can you tell me what the task is now?" Xiang Shaoyun asked.

"You will know when you're there," said Old Urchin.

When Xiang Shaoyun saw that Old Urchin was still unwilling to tell, he was helpless. After telling Liang Zhuangmin and Wu Zhijun about it, he left with Old Urchin. As usual, Old Urchin had Xiang Shaoyun drive the donkey carriage while he rested inside.

Filled with shame, Xiang Shaoyun sang the Great Donkey Driving Technique song, not daring to meet anyone's gaze. Old donkey knew where Old Urchin wanted to go, so Xiang Shaoyun did not even need to point the direction. In a leisurely fashion, he pulled the carriage to their destination.

Before long, Xiang Shaoyun saw the Holy Hall. Inwardly, he was alarmed, What a majestic palace. Is this the main base of the Holy Hall?

Unsurprisingly, the old donkey headed straight to the palace's entrance. The imposing aura surrounding the palace gave Xiang Shaoyun a shock.

This palace was even more majestic than many buildings in the Dragon Phoenix Academy. It also had a simple yet ancient aura around it, as if this palace was a product of the long passage of time.

Xiang Shaoyun immediately recalled the flawless young lady he had met before. He was confident she was an important individual residing in the palace. Ignoring the strict security, the old donkey strode right inside. In fact, the guards were even deferentially saluting the carriage. Old Urchin's status here was evident.

After entering, they first arrived at a garden courtyard. Numerous side palaces of different styles could be seen, with the main palace located right in front of them. The perfectly straight stone pathway connecting to the main palace was framed on two sides by 108 guards, giving it a solemn and dignified feeling.

Here, the old donkey was finally stopped by the guards.

"Entry into the Holy Hall is not allowed!" a guard shouted.

Old Urchin sat up and shouted, "You bastard, do you not recognize this elder?"

The guard saluted Old Urchin and pointed at Xiang Shaoyun, saying, "Elder, you may enter, but he can't."

"Audacious! He is my honored guest. Why can't he enter?" Old Urchin roared as a powerful aura crushed forth at the guard.

Like a kite with a broken string, the guard was sent flying. This was an important location of the Holy Hall. Combat was prohibited, more so for anything that could cause injury. Breaking this rule was punishable with death, yet Old Urchin had ignored the rule and had injured a guard directly.

Even Xiang Shaoyun was having an odd feeling as he thought, Is Old Urchin here to create trouble?

The other guards became nervous, not knowing what to do.

At this time, a voice rang out from above them, "Old Urchin, you're going overboard."

A figure appeared before the carriage like a phantom. Xiang Shaoyun was unable to see how the person had arrived. It was as though he had appeared out of thin air.

"Hehe, who do you think you are? It's not your place to criticize me. I, Old Urchin, have only left for a few years. The moment I come back, you try to give me a show of power? You're really capable, number seven," said Old Urchin with a disdainful smile on his face.

The old man before them was the seventh elder, responsible for the security of the Holy Hall. He had 18 commanders under him.

The seventh elder's face contorted as he said, "Old Urchin, you are disregarding the Holy Hall's rules. You have committed the crime of disrespect toward the hall master!"

"Ok. You may piss off now. I'll go inside right now and see if the hall master is of the opinion that I have committed a crime," replied Old Urchin unyieldingly.

At that, the old donkey continued walking forward. Fury was apparent in the seventh elder's eyes. He had never expected that the Old Urchin would show him so little respect before so many guards.

Old Urchin met the seventh elder's gaze and said, "What? Are you thinking of having a spar with me? Just with that tiny strength you have, you want to pick a quarrel with me?"

After a slight hesitation, the seventh elder snorted, "This is an important place. I won't fight recklessly here."

He then turned and left without looking back.

Old Urchin sneered, "Hah, you think I, Old Urchin, is a wimp? When I was peeing in the Holy Hall, you were still playing with mud!"

Xiang Shaoyun stealthily gave Old Urchin a thumbs up as he thought inwardly, Truly a lawless and unbridled individual. If I have his strength, I can act so fearlessly as well!

Old Urchin looked at Xiang Shaoyun and said smugly, "What do you think, kid? Don't you think I look so cool?"

Xiang Shaoyun laughed dryly, "Indeed."

"Then you need to learn from me. Don't embarrass me," said Old Urchin proudly. By this time, they had arrived right in front of the main palace.

The old donkey stopped there, not daring to step inside. Xiang Shaoyun got off the carriage and followed Old Urchin inside. Old Urchin walked with his head held high and an air of arrogance around him, as though he was afraid nobody would notice him.

As for Xiang Shaoyun, he tried his best to maintain a low profile. He would occasionally steal glances at his surroundings, and what he saw greatly shocked him.

The palace was extremely expansive and luxurious. The walls were decorated with numerous sparkling and translucent mineral statues. The statues were dazzling, ancient, and filled with a sense of mystery. More than ten pillars of over 100 meters in height formed the skeleton of the palace, while tens of majestic golden seats were spread on the left and right sides of the hall.

The main hall was already filled with a large crowd, and seated beside the main seat at the middle of the hall was a noble woman with a veil. Only her eyes were revealed, and her amber pupils seemed capable of pulling everyone in. Her tall, slim, and curvy figure was flawless.

Many of the golden seats were occupied, their auras undetectable. At this moment, their gazes landed on Old Urchin and Xiang Shaoyun.

"Grandpa Urchin, you're here," greeted the woman seated beside the main seat before Old Urchin could say anything.

Without a doubt, this woman was the same woman Old Urchin had brought back some time ago. She was Tuoba Wan'er, the sole granddaughter of the current hall master.

"Um. If I'm still not here, some people will start bullying you," said Old Urchin gently.

"Old Urchin, what is the meaning of this?" asked the third elder, who was seated at the second seat of honor to the left side of the hall.
