Chapter 1242: Canghai Sect’s Response
Sect Leader Shen sat alone with his eyes closed, and did not open his eyes until hurried footsteps approached from afar and entered the reception room.

The person who came was his confidant. He walked hurriedly to his side, bowed and whispered.

"We have already placed them in Mingtingxuan. The scenery there is beautiful and it is in the most central location of the entire sect. We will be able to keep track of any movements they make."

"Very good." Sect Leader Shen nodded.

"It's just that... the leader looked likable, but he immediately asked to go out for a walk, saying that it was his first time here and he was so anxious to visit people that he didn't have time to look around and see the customs and people." The confidant snorted coldly, "He must want to find out something. I had no reason to stop him, so I could only let him go, but asked the smart disciples to follow them from a distance to see what they were like."

Sect Master Shen looked at the bright daylight outside the hall and picked up the teacup beside him. "At this time, if they stay in Mingtingxuan without moving, it will be a problem. If they want to find out, let them find out. Anyway, they are out of my Canghai Sect, hum... rest assured."

"Master, that's right." The confidant quickly turned to the other side, picked up the teapot on the table, shook it twice, and it was already empty. He turned around and shouted to the outside, "Come..."

"No need." The head of the sect put down the teacup and looked at his confidant, "I just didn't expect that Changtian Sect would actually notice us... I don't know how long he has been paying attention to us, and how much he knows..."

"How could a top sect like Changtian Sect care about a small sect like us? They must have received requests for help from the smaller sects below them." The confidant guessed, "Sending people to investigate should be just a formality. Otherwise, why would they send those immature brats?"

"Don't underestimate those brats." The headmaster tapped the armrest. "Three of the four are his personal disciples. They are already at the foundation-building level at such a young age. In a few more years, they will definitely be extraordinary."

"Yes," the confidant leaned forward, "remember the master's teachings. But after all, they are just building their foundation and are young. You can see that the leader is just a noble young man who has never seen the world. The other one also has the style of a noble young man, but he doesn't like to talk to people. He always touches some brand, and I don't know what he is thinking. The two women are even more devoid of spirit, like two idiots... In my opinion, neither of them can do things properly."

Sect Leader Shen raised his eyelids and said, "You mean... their coming here to investigate is fake, and their real purpose is to accumulate some merits to decorate themselves?"

"I'm just guessing," the confidant smiled, his face wrinkled like a chrysanthemum, "Master, you are well-informed. This kind of 'gilded body' is not uncommon in the mortal world."

It is not uncommon! But if it is true, it would be really troublesome.

Sect Leader Shen frowned.

"I'm not worried about them investigating seriously. Even if they turn this place upside down, they won't find anything. I'm also not worried about them just going through the motions and not doing anything, just eating, drinking and having fun. We just need to treat them well, send them off politely, and even leave some friendship behind."

The confidant nodded continuously.

"But if the other party is looking for trouble right from the start..." Sect Leader Shen sighed, "If they are making trouble for no reason and picking on everyone, that would be a disaster we can't avoid!"

They really have something to hide! If they are framed for something that is not justified, not only will it be an unjustifiable injustice, but it will also delay important matters!

"Hiss..." The confidant hesitantly comforted the headmaster, "After all, he is a disciple of Changtian Sect... Maybe I have thought about it."

After all, Changtian Sect is the number one immortal sect in the world, so it shouldn't... use the same tactics as the Canghai Sect, right?

"Don't be afraid of a thousand things, just be prepared for the unexpected!" Sect Master Shen said in a deep voice, "Be safe these few days, and be sure to pay attention to the movements of those people from Changtian Sect. If you can send them away safely, that would be great, but if not..."

"If it doesn't work..." The confidant said bitterly, "We can't attack them openly. We're afraid that if we hit the younger ones, the older ones will come... It will be really troublesome if the big sects come! I said they were too active recently, otherwise there wouldn't be this wave of unprovoked disasters today!"

Sect Master Shen frowned, "I'm not afraid of these people, but the Changtian Sect following behind them... Well, I hope it won't get worse. If not... then I'll have to give up Canghai Sect!"

"Abandon the Canghai Sect!" The confidant's eyes widened. "But..."

"In order to protect our grand plan, temporary sacrifices are unavoidable. It's like a gecko cutting off its tail to escape. When the ancients return, with us here, is there any fear that the Canghai Sect won't be established? By then, who will have greater contributions than us? The Changtian Sect?! We don't even know if it will be there by then. Are you afraid of him?!" Sect Master Shen narrowed his eyes, his face full of longing.

"Yes, yes, you are right." The confidant bent over, his face facing the ground full of struggle, and the moment he stood up, his expression changed quickly, "Do you have any other instructions? If not, I will go down and keep an eye on those guys first." "Go." Master Shen shook his hands, spread his sleeves on his knees again, and closed his eyes again. "Be subtle, don't let them find out, and make trouble for yourself."

"Yes!" The confidant bowed deeply and retreated quickly.

In the next few days, Shen Xiuyuan took his fellow junior brothers and sisters to travel around.

Of course they noticed someone was following them, but the other party just followed them from a distance and did not stop any of their actions.

Moreover, the reputation of Canghai Sect in the town is really good. No matter who you ask, everyone says that they are kind-hearted, and there is no one who says anything bad about them.

If such reputation is true, then there is really no need to worry about being investigated.

"If I didn't know... I would really think that I was mistaken." Mu Jingjing whispered behind Shen Xiuyuan.

She didn't completely believe what Madam Wen said. It was just that Madam Wen's story happened first, and it matched the Taixu Palace's findings that a large number of cultivators had disappeared.

You know, cultivating immortals is also very dangerous. Every year, countless people lose their lives, whether they are cultivating in the sect or training outside.

If the number of missing persons had not accumulated to a certain number, Taixu Palace would not have bothered with this matter and would not have sent people to investigate privately.

Since the Taixu Palace Master asked them to come, it proved that the Taixu Palace had confirmed that there was indeed a problem. It was just that due to various reasons, there was a lack of evidence.

Moreover, Mu Jingjing simply didn't believe that a perfect sect existed.

Even people are not perfect, let alone a huge sect. How is it possible that everyone says it is good and no one says it is bad?
You know, the three sects above them have also been constantly criticized for years. They criticized Changtian Sect for being overbearing and arrogant, criticized Taixu Palace for being hypocritical and noble, and criticized Youye Sect for being vulgar and rude...

As for the Canghai Sect, a remote and almost unknown small sect, the surrounding common people were all praising it... Comparing Madam Wen's words and the fact of the missing monks, the Canghai Sect was putting on a lot of show.

There was no result outside, so everyone could only go back to Canghai Sect to look for clues.

The leader of the Canghai Sect rarely shows up, but his confidants have always been very considerate and even took the initiative to take them on a tour of the Canghai Sect.

In the end, except for the forbidden area of ​​Canghai Sect, the entire Canghai Sect was toured openly by Shen Xiuyuan and his companions.

Later, Mu Jingjing couldn't help it and found excuses to run around. Shen Xiuyuan and Yu Sinian also took the opportunity of recruiting people to conduct random investigations.

But apart from being particularly curious about their arrival and watching them closely, the people of Canghai Sect did not even try to stop them, as if they were truly innocent and not afraid of their investigation.

"Is it in a forbidden area?" Shen Xiuyuan pondered.

"It's a forbidden area after all!" Mu Jingjing lay on the table and said weakly, "I can't find a suitable excuse anymore."

"It's okay," Yu Sinian put Lingxi on the table, "We've finished our work, let's rest assured."

A text popped up on Lingxi.
