I Want To Go In (1)
âSince you know who I am, does that mean I can enter?â Ye Lang walked towards the door.
âNo! Mr Ye Lang, please wait a moment outside!â the Light Riders still stopped him from entering.
Although Ye Lang had made a lot of contributions to Sheng City and had a huge reputation here, they still couldnât let him enter. It was forbidden!
These were the rules, and the Light Riders could not change them.
However, Ye Lang didnât think too much into it. He only looked at the door, puzzled, then decided to wait quietly for Feng Xing and the rest.
This was because he thought these guards would only be willing to get out of his way if Feng Xing and the rest were here.
Heâll wait then. It was all so peculiar to him anyway. What was this feeling? It felt familiar, yet foreign. This was confusing.
Or maybe he was just staring into space at this point. âWhat? The fifth floor?!â cried Feng Xing in surprised after receiving the message.
They were looking for him at the first and second floor, not expecting Ye Lang to have reached the fifth floor within such a short time. Based on their guesses, if Ye Lang was only wandering blindly, he should still be on the first floor.
And just in case, they also sent men up to the second floor!
The riders also followed protocols by informing all the riders in the palace to keep an eye out for Ye Lang and help look for him if they were available.
This was why the riders on the fifth floor knew about Ye Lang going missing!
âYes, heâs on the fifth floor, East wing, room number one!â reported the rider in exasperation.
âUh⊠What? East wing, room one?â Isnât thatâŠâ exclaimed Feng Xing again, but he didnât continue his sentence.
âLord Feng Xing, what is that place?â asked Zhen Xiaoyan who was also with Feng Xing. Little Xin was also with her.
Little Xin seemed to still be following Zhen Xiaoyan around because Ye Langâs instructions for it had not been lifted yet. And that was why Ye Langâs description lacked the sentence âhas a very pretty girl by his sideâ.
âItâs a very special placeâŠâ said Feng Xing as he walked, but also found what he said funny. What an unnecessary answer.
ââŠâ Zhen Xiaoyan didnât speak, waiting for him to elaborate.
Cough, cough. At least this Zhen Xiaoyan wasnât as annoying as the other two. Sigh, he couldnât imagine how annoyed sir must be, living with the other two. At least Zhen Xiaoyan was better, she was wife material, she would be perfect for sir.
Hey, hey. Thatâs none of my business!
âDo you know that there are only two positions within the Sacred Light Religion that belong to only one person,â Feng Xingâs question sounded odd, but at least it was related.
âI know, the Pope is the only one. Wait, is that where the Pope is? Then we should get Ye Lang immediately⊠The fifth floor, right?â Zhen Xiaoyan panicked and started to dash up the steps!
âUhâŠâ Feng Xing stared as she ran. He wanted to tell her that he hadnât finished his explanationâŠ
The Pope wasnât on the fifth floor, and he didnât have this many guards around him either!
This wasnât because he wasnât important, but because the Pope was already surrounded by expert fighters around him anyway. They were all more powerful than the average guard. Then again, the Pope was THE Pope, of course he had exceptional capabilities- though no one knew exactly how powerful he was. âLetâs go then! Tell Miss Lanyu and the princess too! Tell them to head up to the fifth floor too!â Feng Xing didnât bother to elaborate, instead telling his men to get Lanyu and the princess then run after Zhen Xiaoyan.
Although Zhen Xiaoyanâs guess was wrong, there wasnât a problem with that.

At the same time,  in a bright meeting room within the palace, there were four archbishops sitting around a table in a discussion, each of them very important figures here.
If Ye Lang was here, he would be so confused, then he would say âwhy do they all look the same? Are they quadruplets?â
They looked the same because they wore the same robes, and all four were old men with the same long, white beard.
They were the seniors of the Teachings, even the Pope respected them. If all four had the same opinion about something, the Pope would have to listen to them too.
âDo we know who made the formation yet?â said one of them, adjusting his reading glasses to read the documents in his hand.
âThey found it was Troy MormonâŠâ said another archbishop.
âCatch him then, ask him why he did it too,â the previous archbishop didnât seem to know who Troy Mormon was, he mustâve thought he was a regular man.
âWeâll have to go to the graveyard then!â the other archbishop gave a bitter smile.
âThe graveyard? Is he there? Why would he stay at such an odd place?â the first archbishop didnât understand.
â⊠Heâs been dead for a thousand years, thatâs why heâs living at the graveyard⊠Do you understand?â the second archbishop didnât expect him to not know of this person.
ââŠâ The first archbishopâs face reddened with embarrassment.
âWe searched among the belongings Troy left behind, there was a letter and inside mentioned an alchemy formation. Apparently this wasnât something to show off his abilities, this was a tool for revenge!â said another archbishop, frowning.
âA tool for revenge? What does that mean?â The rest didnât know why he would do something like that.
âYeah, revenge. It seems that Troy wasnât here out of his own will, someone used a very illegal method to force him here⊠Sigh, even the Teachings cannot avoid politics, it has a dark side too!â he sighed, shaking his head.
