Staying for a moment is just the beginning. The enemies in the sanctuary are far more difficult to deal with than Le Yuan and the others imagined. As for Zilong and the others, if taken alone, their explosive power may be no less than that of any gold-level Saints, but they will inevitably fall into a bitter battle under the crowd tactics.
Le Yuan and others who continued on the road did not walk through such a long road safely. In less than three minutes, they were still dozens of kilometers away from the Golden Twelve Palaces when they encountered the second wave again. enemy.
This time, the person who chose to stand in front of Le Yuan was no longer a single Saint, but a Silver Saint with two or three bronzes, followed by a group of miscellaneous guards who had understood the small universe.
Ophiuchus Sharna was the leader of this wave of enemies. Unexpectedly, another old friend who had dealt with Le Yuan appeared again after the magic bell.
The road ahead for Le Yuan and others was tightly surrounded, with at least half a hundred people blocking their way. Under such circumstances, it was unlikely that most people would be able to overcome this obstacle.
"Is this Le Yuan again someone you know?" Shazhi, who was being carried by Le Yuan, saw the change in Le Yuan's expression when he saw Sharna. That was not the expression he would show when meeting a stranger, "Yes... Friends?"
"Friend? Haha..." Sharna opposite wore a silver mask, so Saori couldn't see the change in the other party's face at all, but from the cold and indifferent words, she could also feel the relationship between Sharna and Le Yuan has no friendship at all. "When I met you six years ago, I knew you were definitely not a good person. Sure enough, you have now chosen to rebel against the Holy Domain. Today, I will get rid of you as a traitor for Mo Ling!"
Le Yuan looked at Sharna's silver mask, and then thought of the mask on Mo Ling's face before. She didn't know anything about the situation in the sanctuary and asked: "Does that mask have any significance? I seem to only see it. Two people are wearing it!”
The mask of a female saint is a rule passed down from ancient times in the sanctuary. This was originally set by Athena herself.
"The rules you set are that female saints must wear masks at all times and cannot let others see their true face. Once others, especially men, see their appearance under the mask, they can only have two choices. , either kill the other person, or fall in love with the other person!"
However, most people's understanding of this rule is that Athena formulated these two rules for three reasons.
First, if a girl wants to become a Saint, she must forget her identity as a woman. After putting on a mask, she cannot fall in love and devote herself to the goddess Athena. Athena is the most famous virgin goddess and the female warriors under her command. Also adhering to this point, if you choose to fall in love, you must give up your identity as a Saint.
Second, wearing a mask can prevent other male saints from being greedy for the beauty of female saints and slacking off in their training, and it can also prevent boys from becoming jealous over this.
Third, because the goddess Athena possesses supreme beauty, no woman more beautiful than her is allowed to appear in front of her, so all female saints must wear masks.
"Hate! People won't be jealous of women who are more beautiful than themselves. This rule must be abolished in the future!" Saori pouted her mouth with a gloomy look, "I want to know more about the sanctuary. Much…”
Although she is called Athena, Saori is not even as good as Le Yuan and the others in the holy realm that she should know very well. This makes Saori feel very depressed.
Le Yuan's gaze did not stop, and he quickly spotted a Gundam figure among the several Bronze Saints following Sharna - Cassios.
"Hey, isn't that Casio? I haven't seen you for two years and you already have your own holy robe!" Le Yuan stared at Casio and then greeted him like an acquaintance, "Why don't you take the initiative to ask me when you see me? Okay?"
Most people may not know it, but Sharna and Cassios should be very clear about their original agreement. Even if two years have passed, Cassios should still call Leyuan big brother.
When he heard Le Yuan greeting him so proactively, Cassios scratched the back of his head in confusion. Although he became the Bronze Saint of Ursa Major, he couldn't help but feel half shorter when facing Le Yuan. He didn't know what to do. He looked at Le Yuan with a pair of eyes and said two words in the end: "Big , Big brother!”
"Don't scream!" Sharna turned around and glanced at her apprentice fiercely, then looked at Le Yuan again and said, "How does a rebellious person like him qualify to be your eldest brother? Your previous bet is cancelled. Kill this guy today!"
However, it was impossible for Sharna to find Le Yuan. Zilong and Binghe took the lead in blocking them before they started taking action.
"Just because you are not worthy of fighting Le Yuan, let me play with you!"
Zilong spread out his hands to lock the small universe on Sharna, while the other bronze saints on the other side had been stopped by Binghe, and Binghe's freezing air sealed their legs in just an instant. Freezing, this level of freezing, if they hadn't had the power of the small universe, their legs might not have been frozen.
"Le Yuan, you take Miss Shazhi and leave first. Purple Dragon Society and I will take care of them and then join you!"
"You mean cooking?"
Hearing this, Sharna's body emitted a sizzling burst of electricity, and Cassios immediately took a step back. As Sharna's apprentice, he understood that this was a sign that his master was angry, and that she might unleash her unique skills at any time.
Sizzling—
A ray of purple lightning struck at Le Yuan and Sha Zhi, but the purple lightning that was as fast as lightning was caught in the air while it was still in the air. Zilong raised his right hand and blocked it with Draco's shield. Come down, but there are no certain scars on the shield belonging to Draco.
"I told you, your opponent is me now!"
A hint of evil flashed across Zilong's face. Sharna's approach of attacking Le Yuan over him was simply a sign of neglecting him. As a disciple of Golden Saint Tong Hu, although Zilong is only a Bronze Saint, his self-esteem is higher than that of ordinary people.
"Zilong, Binghe..." Le Yuan glanced at the two people who had taken the initiative to stay behind, and repeated the same words he said to Shun, "...I'll wait for you in front!"
Le Yuan, who was carrying Sha Zhi, squatted down, and with his legs suddenly thrust toward the ground, the huge jumping power allowed him to take Sha Zhi directly past the blockade of Sharna and the others, and at the same time, he approached with a The flying speed quickly jumped towards the Golden Zodiac.
"Wow...Le Yuan, stop, stop..."
In order to take care of the yarn on his back, Le Yuan also specially used the small universe to shield yarn from the wind pressure, but even so, yarn was still frightened by Le Yuan's move and turned pale. He closed his eyes and screamed, She looks no different from an ordinary little girl.
"No need to be afraid, open your eyes, Shazhi!" Le Yuan just landed back on the ground and jumped up again. The Son of God drew an arc in the sky and took off again, "I'm here, You will never be hurt again, use your eyes to appreciate this sanctuary that belongs to you!"
Hearing Le Yuan's voice, Shazhi, who had been fine all this time, slowly opened her eyes, looking down at the holy land she had never seen before from Le Yuan's back.
And Le Yuan not only took Sha Zhi on the way, but also focused on the three people behind him. In terms of potential, the three of them will not be defeated. They are still a little weak against gold, but they can increase their experience through silver and bronze.
Five minutes later, Le Yuan, who was unstoppable along the way, finally entered the Aries Palace, the first of the twelve golden palaces, carrying Sha Zhi on his back. It's exactly the same as what I saw a few years ago. The entire Aries Palace is sparkling and filled with crystal-like objects. I don't know if it's because of Aries's trick [Crystal Wall] that it has such a decoration.
Not far after entering, the Golden Saint guarding the Aries Palace appeared. The huge ram's horn decorations on his shoulders and the closed hood with ram's horn style all showed that this was the Golden Saint of Aries.

The mask of the fighting state was automatically lifted, and the Aries Golden Saint revealed the elegant look behind the mask. It was Mu of Aries who had just parted a few days ago.
After seeing Shazhi, Mu knelt down on one knee directly towards Shazhi. At the same time, he put his right hand on the ground and lowered his head and said: "Please forgive me for being disrespectful to you for so long, Athena!"
The current Sanctuary is too noisy, and they are blatantly sending fighters to chase Athena. Although it is misleading, if Athena really pursues it, no one can run away. Therefore, when Mu opened his mouth, he was asking for forgiveness for all the saints like Athena. In terms of political IQ, Mu was undoubtedly very high, and he was worthy of being a disciple of the previous generation of popes.
With Mu's explanation, Le Yuan and Sha Zhi could understand in the shortest time why the situation suddenly became like this. At the same time, they also understood that the Golden Twelve Palaces might be even more difficult to escape than they imagined.
But before that, Le Yuan asked the professional Golden Saint to take a look at Shazhi's injury and see if he could solve the problem of the continuous loss of the small universe.
Mu just watched it for a while and already understood what the other "Athena" was, but at the same time he understood better who the real Athena was.
There is only one way to save Athena. Take Athena to the back of the Pope's Palace and use the shield on the statue of Athena to reflect the light on the wound to get rid of this curse.
