Twelve Protectors? Or guarding the future Clan Leader? What’s going on here?

He knows the strength of the Third Princess, the Moonwater Tribe is full of experts. Her strength here is, at most, mid-level among the Inner Sect Disciples, but there are quite a few Core Disciples in the Moonwater Tribe! Even among the Inner Sect Disciples, there are many stronger than her! Of course, True Disciples equivalent to the Royal Family are not counted for now.

Yet, no matter what, she shouldn’t be the Protector!

However, the change in attitude of these Inner Sect Disciples towards Ye Luo clearly indicates a problem.

"How can I see my sister?" Ye Luo asked hurriedly.

He must confirm she is alright.

"Well! Since she has become one of the Twelve Protectors, she naturally has to be in the Moonwater Palace. After all, these Protectors must grow alongside the future Clan Leader for relationships to build. So, if you want to see her, go to the Moonwater Palace. However, whether you can see her is not up to us to decide!" One of the Inner Sect Disciples said.

Ye Luo nodded slightly and headed towards the Moonwater Palace.

"Hmph, this guy is too arrogant, isn’t he? We spoke to him kindly, and he didn’t even thank us!" A Inner Sect Disciple said discontentedly, looking at Ye Luo’s back.

"Shh, don’t let him hear that. Don’t you know the status of the Twelve Protectors in the tribe? This guy is totally on the fast track because he has such a good sister!"

...

Ye Luo shook his head slightly, naturally hearing the discussions of the Inner Sect Disciples.

However, leaving aside the Protectors, even if the Third Princess were to become the Clan Leader, he wouldn’t agree.

After all, no matter how good this place is, it is ultimately a Space-Time Channel. Even if he were made Emperor here, he wouldn’t stay!

Moreover, her being chosen as one of the Twelve Protectors really isn’t a good thing! It’s equivalent to being the Clan Leader’s personal Guard, making it extremely difficult to leave the Moonwater Tribe in the future.

Of course, for now, he can only take one step at a time.

Soon, Ye Luo arrived at the Moonwater Palace.

This palace is naturally enormous, though the architecture seems somewhat rustic, the whole structure emanates an unsettling aura.

Over the years, the Moonwater Tribe has repaired and expanded the Moonwater Palace, and added many Formations, so while the building skills may not be top-notch, the momentum is extraordinary.

Just as Ye Luo appeared, two young strong figures appeared before him.

"Bold! Who dares trespass into the Moonwater Palace? If you do not withdraw, we will kill without mercy!"

The skills of these young people cannot be compared with those Inner Sect Disciples; they are, at the very least, of Core Disciple level.

Naturally, the Moonwater Palace is extremely important, and not just any Disciple can qualify as Guard here.

"Please calm down, gentlemen, I am here to find my sister. Her name is Qiong Yao, and she was just chosen as one of the Twelve Protectors!" Ye Luo quickly said.

"Qiong Yao?"

The Core Disciples paused immediately. Although they did not attack Ye Luo, their expression remained extremely cautious.

"How can you prove you are Qiong Yao’s brother?" One of the Core Disciples asked hurriedly.

How to prove it? This question stumped Ye Luo.

"Have her come out, and that will be proof enough!" Ye Luo could only say.

Moreover, even if there are other means of proof, Ye Luo won’t use them. After all, they aren’t truly siblings, proving otherwise might cause issues.

"How bold! Qiong Yao is of such noble status, not to mention being her brother, even her father must pay great respects to her! And yet you dare to ask her to come out to meet you. Considering that this is your first offense, we won’t pursue it, but if it happens again, you won’t be let off lightly even if you are her brother!"

Hearing this, Ye Luo was rendered speechless, but he could not fall out with the Guards at this moment.

"You gentlemen are right, I have nothing to prove, and you won’t let me in!" Ye Luo said helplessly.

Suddenly, the Guards were in a bit of a dilemma themselves.

Despite their words, they really dared not move against Ye Luo, because if Qiong Yao were to pursue the matter, they could not afford the consequences.

"How about this? You wait here, and we will report to Qiong Yao, whether she sees you or not depends on her decision!"

Ye Luo nodded slowly, it seemed this was the only option.

"That’s great, thank you, gentlemen, for your trouble!"

Ye Luo quickly handed over Crystal Stones, understanding the importance of bribing guards.

"You wait here, when we have news, we will inform you right away!"

The Guards accepted the Crystal Stones, their expressions relaxing noticeably, and without any further attention to Ye Luo, they returned to their guard tower.

Ye Luo didn’t mind, as he had nothing else to do, so he sat cross-legged on a stone bench.

Meanwhile, the area is strictly forbidden for other cultivators to approach. Passers-by curiously glanced at Ye Luo, wondering who he was to linger here.

Ye Luo naturally ignored these glances and shut his eyes to begin Cultivation.

Since this is the location where the Moonwater Palace is built, also the core location of the Moonwater Tribe, both Spiritual Power and Power of Laws are quite abundant.

Soon, excitement filled his heart.

Indeed, the Space-time Laws here are purer than outside, even though the power of the Space-time Laws is quite weak, it’s very beneficial for Ye Luo’s comprehension of Space-time Laws!

But in the next instant, he stopped.

Because as soon as he led these Space-time Laws into his meridians, the skeletal remains began to absorb crazily.

Every time Ye Luo tried to refine the Space-time Laws, this skeleton always came to interfere.

Moreover, Ye Luo noticed that the cracks on the skeleton had healed considerably, and the surface color of the skeleton began to turn a faint golden hue.

Most importantly, the power of the Space-time Laws emanating from the skeleton became increasingly strong.

About this, Ye Luo has always been uneasy and worried.

He even sensed that there seemed to be a trace of Divine Sense within the skeleton, but upon closer inspection, found nothing!

Thus, if the skeleton grows stronger, whether it would pose a threat to Ye Luo is completely unknown!

Suddenly, a Core Disciple sped out from the guard tower, seeing this scene, Ye Luo jumped off the stone bench.
