Chapter 1389: Chapter 1385: The Fish is Already on the Hook!_1 Chapter 1389: Chapter 1385: The Fish is Already on the Hook!_1 “Are you sure they didn’t leave any tracking prohibitions on you?” Yang Chen narrowed his eyes and asked bluntly.

“Actually, Brother Yang, I and the elders of the clan had suspected this too, but later it was denied. We’ve checked ourselves, and found no trace of any prohibition. The Qilin underlings couldn’t track and kill me through this.” Xiang Yue told the truth without any omissions.

Cai Yi, puzzled, said, “Yang Chen, you’re always suspicious of everything, could you be overthinking this time?”

Yang Chen didn’t answer, he was confident in his judgement and wouldn’t easily suspect something unless there was good reason. If he determined an issue, then there was a high likelihood it was a problem.

With that thought in mind, Yang Chen suddenly grabbed Xiang Yue’s arm.

“Don’t move, let me check,” Yang Chen said solemnly. Since he promised to protect Xiang Yue, he wouldn’t break his word and had to ensure her safety.

Xiang Yue didn’t resist, but Yang Chen frowned soon after. She seemed to be in good physical condition and had no prohibitions within her body.

If the Golden Crow Clan members’ examination was not comprehensive, then he was very confident in his own methods. There would be no mistakes in his investigation.

“How is it?” Xiang Yue asked.

Yang Chen shook his head.

Cai Yi pouted, “I told you that you were overthinking, but you didn’t believe me.”

Yang Chen said, “There are no prohibitions on her, but that does not mean there are no similar tracking prohibitions on others. Furthermore, prohibitions are not the only means of tracking.”

“What does Brother Yang mean…” Xiang Yue couldn’t help but ask.

Yang Chen slowly said, “There are two easiest ways I can think of now. One, one of you has a prohibition. It is not difficult to judge this. Tomorrow morning, gather everyone together, and I will have a way to find out. Second, there could be a traitor. If there is indeed a traitor working with the Qilin underlings, then things will be much more troublesome.”

“A traitor? Impossible! There can’t be any traitors in our Golden Crow Clan!” Xiang Yue was very confident.

“On what basis do you think there cannot be a traitor in your Golden Crow Clan?” Yang Chen didn’t answer, but stared at Xiang Yue intently.

Xiang Yue was speechless. Indeed, what made her think there were no traitors in their clan?

Seeing Xiang Yue’s expression, Yang Chen knew that the idea of a traitor might be very difficult for the little girl to accept. He rubbed his eyebrows and said, “Xiang Yue, you don’t have to worry too soon, this is just my speculation. The accuracy of it will be determined tomorrow.”

“Brother Yang is resourceful, but if there is a traitor, they must be very well hidden. How can Brother Yang find them?” Xiang Yue asked, puzzled.

Yang Chen calmly said, “I have my ways.”

After talking for a bit longer, Xiang Yue went back to her room, clearly struggling to accept the idea of there being a traitor that Yang Chen had mentioned.

This irritated Cai Yi, who said, “She’s still so young, why did you have to tell her all that stuff? I think you’re looking for trouble where there is none. Where’s the traitor? You’re worrying over nothing.”

However, Yang Chen didn’t care to explain, but just yawned and said, “No worries, you’ll know soon.”

Cai Yi rolled her eyes, not knowing where Yang Chen got such confidence. She didn’t feel the slightest presence of a traitor.

Then, on the second day, time had arrived.

As instructed by Yang Chen, Xiang Yue summoned all the Golden Crow Clan members. When Yang Chen and Cai Yi appeared, all members showed their respect. They all knew well that the life and death of the Golden Crow team were closely related to Yang Chen and Cai Yi.

Now, Yang Chen sat down and said indifferently, “I called all of you here early to discuss our upcoming journey.”

While speaking calmly on the surface, in secret, Yang Chen had already given instructions to the Fishpeople Tribe.

Soon, the women of the Fishpeople Tribe came to a conclusion: “Young Master, there is no fluctuation of prohibition power to be found on these people.”

Yang Chen nodded, and then looked at all the Golden Crows around him.

As for Yang Chen’s plan to fish out the traitor, Xiang Yue knew very little, let alone the others.

Many asked, “Wasn’t it said that we would rest for a few days before setting off?”

“Last night, I thought a lot about it, and it seemed that the Qilin underlings might appear at any time. With our current combat strength, our chances of defeating the Qilin underlings are slim. Therefore, for safety, I think we should split into two groups, one as the main force and the other as a cover. This way, whether the main force or the cover is caught, at least the other party is safe, and some seeds can be left. Furthermore, it can also create a mist effect against the Qilin underlings.” Yang Chen explained slowly.

“This plan could work…”

“I think it’s feasible. We’ll split into two groups and leave our fate to the heavens.”

“However, we must make sure that there are more protection forces around Holy Maiden!”

After discussing for a while, the elders surprisingly agreed that Yang Chen’s plan was feasible.

“Yang Chen, my friend, we think your plan is feasible, but the details need to be discussed further.”

“Of course, that’s no problem!” Yang Chen smiled amiably.

And so, after going back and forth, they sat down to discuss, for several hours, and finally reached a conclusion. They would set off in two groups at noon the next day.

Yang Chen, Cai Yi, and a few other experts would protect Xiang Yue, the Saintess, while the remaining members would form another group to draw attention.

In this way, both groups journeyed back to the Golden Crow Region, avoiding many casualties.

In the end, everyone was happy and began preparing for the journey.

However, Yang Chen didn’t discuss the preparations at all after returning to his room, but instead spread his soul out.

“The bait is set, and now we wait for the fish,” Yang Chen mumbled to himself.

If there were a traitor among the Golden Crow Clan, then such big news wouldn’t go unreported overnight.

“I don’t believe there’s a traitor,” Cai Yi pouted.

“How about we make a bet?” Yang Chen confidently said.

“What’s the wager?” Cai Yi asked curiously.

“You decide,” Yang Chen said.

Cai Yi laughed, “If you lose, you’ll do whatever I want. If I win, you’ll let me do whatever I want.”

“…” Yang Chen, after a moment of stunned silence, said, “Why do I feel like both scenarios involve you taking advantage of me?”

“Really?” Cai Yi giggled.

Just as Yang Chen was about to say something, suddenly his eyebrows raised, “You’ve already lost, the fish has bitten.”
