Chapter 359: Chapter 267: I Became a Demon Sect Spy? (Part 2)
"Who knows? Plus, I’ve heard they’re backed by the shadows of a Direct Disciple. Will they really arrest a Direct Disciple?"
"Ridiculous, even the Direct Disciple of Spirit Controlling Peak was arrested. As long as the charges are substantiated, everyone will be taken into custody."
"Since when did the Law Enforcement Hall care so much? Didn’t they usually turn a blind eye?"
"Maybe they’ve turned into a Demon Sect and find killing more thrilling, looking for any excuse to execute someone."
"Try finding an excuse to kill a Direct Disciple and see what happens. Do you even know what cultivation level most Direct Disciples are at?"
While these people were still arguing, Junior Sister Qing arrived in front of the previous dwelling and respectfully greeted, "Senior Brother."
"What is it?" A voice came from inside.
"There’s been a major incident, the Law Enforcement Hall has taken action against the disciples of the Outer Peak’s various courtyards. All the covert Masters have been arrested, and so have the Direct Disciples. They’re all being treated as defectors to the Sect," Junior Sister Qing said with a trembling voice.
After all, she had also wanted to become one of the covert Masters once.
If she acted rashly...
The consequences were unimaginable.
"That quickly?" The voice inside sounded slightly wistful.
"Did Senior Brother already know?" In her heart, Junior Sister Qing felt certain. Otherwise, why would he require her to have a formal reason?
She couldn’t just arrange things covertly by herself.
"Know?" The voice inside laughed: "How could I possibly know? When have you ever seen such a thing judged as defection from the Sect? Even with the extensive authority of the Law Enforcement Hall, would they dare to accuse a Direct Disciple of defection?"
"Then how did Senior Brother...?" Junior Sister Qing was confused.
"Is it that hard to understand?" With a creak, the doors of the dwelling opened, and a man in white clothing and graceful bearing strode out.
He had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, exuding charisma.
Glancing at the person before him, he smiled:
"First, you must understand that this is the Sect.
Second, you must realize the Six Courtyard is newly established, never mind why for now.
But it must be a decision of the Sect.
So, we should support it.
To takeover power as soon as it’s established, how would the founders feel?
Additionally, who are the Masters of the newly established Six Courtyard?
The recent disciples of various Peak Masters with mediocre talent.
Why are they able to be Masters?
Let’s say they’re just lucky.
But what if it’s all arranged by the Peak Masters?
A coup?
Isn’t that being at odds with the Peak Masters?
Sure, we compete and struggle among ourselves, which the higher-ups see as tempering us, the disciples. But to take it up with the Peak Masters, what are you trying to do?
Aiming to become a Peak Master yourself?"
Hearing this, Junior Sister Qing instinctively lowered her head and murmured her disavowal.
"Even such simple logic, as a Direct Disciple, would you not understand?" The man said with a smile: "Knowing this, why get involved? You must be too accustomed to being self-righteous.
So be it if it’s a purge.
The Sect is loosely managed, and the Peak Masters hardly care much.
Hence, we disciples can almost do whatever we want.
But once the Sect begins to investigate, you better be clean.
Otherwise, let’s just pray they’re only giving a warning."
Junior Sister Qing lowered her head, somewhat puzzled.
Having been in the Sect for so long, she had never felt this way.
The man, who had already stepped outside, said calmly: "You’re still too young.
You never saw the Sect three hundred years ago, when it was the heyday of the Peak Masters; the disciples of these three hundred years don’t understand what Cangmu Sect was like.
Anyone preventing the Sect’s growth and expansion had to die."
He sighed, "So mutual benefit ensures you last long in the Sect, be wary not just of fellow disciples but also the Sect’s rules.
Let’s go, we’ve clashed with Heavenly Yang Sect again. Capture some useful people and figure out a way to send them to the First Institute.
If you can’t help with such mutual benefit, then create profit for it.
And then obtain benefits from the First Institute."
After speaking, the man left on his Flying Sword.
Junior Sister Qing, without hesitation, followed and left.
...
East Road Ancient State.
At its central location, where Spiritual Energy was rich, a vast Spirit Vein lay covered by a colossal Sect.
Dao Sect.
The premier Sect of East Road Ancient State.
Home to a hundred and eight peaks.
Countless powerhouses stood guard within.
Swords flew back and forth, with various Disciples commuting on them.
At this moment, in a remote and modest mountain peak, inside an ordinary house sat a man in his early twenties.
Around him, numerous Spirit Stones shifted ceaselessly.
The last portion of Spirit Stones merged into his brow.
Then golden light enveloped his body.
After a long time, the light finally faded.
Thus, he slowly opened his eyes.
He began to inspect the Spirit Stones on the ground.
Half were gone, and the remaining half had cracks.
All were unusable.
But they could still be used to create Arrays.
"Spirit Stones are all used up, indeed the ones given by Junior Brother Gu are of better quality," Hua Jiyang said, shaking his head with a smile.
With a casual gesture, numerous Papermen flew towards him inexplicably.
They then vanished.
Thus, Hua Jiyang learnt of the recent events.
"Going into seclusion for a bit, and the Sect has turned into a Demon Sect, am I now a spy for the Demon Sect?"
He chuckled with a sense of resignation, "Forget it, let’s complete Master’s task first, figure out a way to steal some Daoist Scripture for him."
"However, the recent situation with Junior Brother Gu is quite peculiar, six people, Six Courtyard, it does not seem coincidental." He tried to gather information but received none.
That is to say, only the highest echelons within the Sect would be privy to this matter.
He then took out an envelope and began to read.
"Junior Brother Gu didn’t show up, but it’s also good that he didn’t get involved in this strange setup; it would truly be difficult to extricate himself," Hua Jiyang put down the envelope and considered the Storage Treasure, "What else can I send to Junior Brother? According to some information, Junior Brother Gu doesn’t use swords, sabers, or bows?
Why not? Does he not know if they can be used?
It seems I need to explain to him.
I wonder if he has learned ’Drawing a Prison’; that’s a useful technique.
A book then appeared in his hand."
"Qi Sea Sky Gang, Fifth Volume—should I send it over now?" Hua Jiyang pondered for a moment and decided to send it another time.
This time he would first try to find a Sword Skill manual, or maybe another saber.
Seems like he often uses a saber.
He reviewed the information brought back by the Papermen.
Hua Jiyang furrowed his brows, feeling contemplative:
"What exactly is Chu Meng’s identity? Several attempts to engage have been unsuccessful.
Is it her that’s mysterious, or the person behind her?
But one thing’s for sure, her talent is outrageously high.
There’s always a strange feeling that Junior Brother Gu will definitely be entangled.
I wonder if my warning is of any use.
Forget it, Junior Brother Gu is so naïve, only knowing about logging, at a glance he’s the straightforward type who’ll blow his top.
For someone like Chu Meng to use a Charming Technique on him, he’d probably follow her every command by the next day.
He’s old enough; wouldn’t he feel ashamed if he’s found out?"
Hua Jiyang got up and opened the door.
He discovered an Immortal in green sitting by the pond, watching the fish within, and when a spirit fish leaped out, she thrust a sword straight through it.
The spirit fish was impaled.
Then she glanced back, noticed Hua Jiyang, and immediately ran, saying, "Disciple, your Master was never here, haha."
Hua Jiyang: "..."
This Master here is even more shameless than those from the Demon Sect.
According to what this Master told him, her Master is a Supreme Elder of the Dao Sect, whose cultivation has reached a pinnacle.
The exact realm, unknown.
But, three hundred years ago, he had gone out once.
Then he hid in the deepest recesses of the Sect, refusing to come out no matter what, citing the need to raise his cultivation.
In a flash, three hundred years passed with no further news.
What was once a wealthy area became desolate.
Allowing him, a spy under the guise of a Demon Sect member, to enter with ease.
Hua Jiyang sat down in his place, starting to fold Papermen.
Knowing he was a spy for the Demon Sect made things much more thrilling.
"Speaking of which, the Dao Sect is recently planning an alliance marriage with the Royal Family, wonder if there’ll be any mishaps.
Whether it would give me an opportunity to get close to the Daoist Scripture."
Hua Jiyang shook his head, no longer dwelling on it.
He would need to go down the mountain later, buy some useful things and then send them out.
He’s relying on Junior Brother Gu’s Spirit Stones.
Hua Jiyang touched his brow as he thought, "This time I’ll bring him some useful information."
At dusk.
Hua Jiyang put away the Papermen and finally took steps towards the mountain’s base.
Before leaving he hesitated, took a wooden token, and by the pond he wrote a line: "Master and dogs, keep away."
With that done, he then left at ease.
