My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

Zhuge Guangling instantly transformed into a wisp of black smoke and vanished before everyone's eyes. Before leaving, he uttered a final sentence: "Now I know where you old-fashioned figures are hiding. Just you wait and see. When we new-fashioned figures become strong enough, you will all die!"

As the black smoke dissipated, Zhuge Guangling's figure could no longer be seen.

We all looked at each other, feeling utterly horrified.

That's the Soul-Locking Chain of the Black Impermanence; it binds all souls, and trapped souls and people are basically unable to use any magic.

And that new-style celestial master Zhuge Guangling was actually able to use related magic and even managed to escape successfully.
Isn't this new-style magic a bit too powerful?

If they really faced those lunatics, could they really protect themselves?
Black Impermanence's face was extremely grim. He took a deep breath and said, "There is a traitor among you!"

These words were like water being poured into a scalding hot pan of oil, causing it to explode and splatter.

Everyone insisted that they were not traitors.

"I was just standing right here, how could I be a traitor? Besides, we simply don't have that capability!"

"Black Impermanence, are you mistaken? We're all old-fashioned people here, how could there be a traitor?"

"But everyone just ran over normally without doing anything unusual, and no one used any explosive tags. So who could be the traitor?"

"We have traitors on both sides, doesn't that mean we're likely to be assassinated? We need to find the mole quickly!"

"Everyone, don't panic. Let's hear what Mr. Black Impermanence has to say. None of the teachers have spoken yet."

Black Impermanence said to Little Koi and his group, "The one who caused the explosion was one of your own people. They probably got wind of Zhuge Guangling's capture beforehand, and then coordinated from the inside to divert everyone's attention, giving the other side a chance to cast a spell, which allowed them to escape successfully. Which of you went to the warehouse in the back just now?"

Black Impermanence's questioning immediately chilled the atmosphere.

Five students hesitated before raising their hands.

Han San glanced at Zhao Rusong furtively, but Zhao Rusong showed no fear and raised his hand as well.

These five students are all old-school Taoist masters, and each of them comes from a family with a proper lineage of Taoist teachings.

The Black Impermanence's gaze swept over them, and he ordered each of them to stand up and explain in turn.

The first to step forward and explain was Zhang, a Taoist priest from the Taishan Sect: "I went to the back warehouse to help Manager Zhang get goods, and I only happened to be helping him out. I had no ulterior motives. It was just a coincidence that I went to the back warehouse!"

Another disciple from another branch of Maoshan also stepped forward: "I couldn't possibly be an inside agent, because I went to the back to change clothes in the dormitory. I accidentally got injured while studying just now, and the bleeding stained my clothes. I just happened to pass by the warehouse, and I definitely didn't go inside. Moreover, I don't have the ability to create explosive talismans to cause such a big explosion. You know, I don't have that ability."

These words were so honest that everyone couldn't help but twitch their lips. Another person stepped forward: "I could never be the mole. I went there with Zhao Rusong. Zhao Rusong and I walked side by side the whole time. We can both vouch for each other. We just passed by the warehouse and didn't go any closer. There was no chance for us to do anything."

Zhao Rusong stepped forward, nodded, and calmly said to everyone, "We can both testify to each other that we did not have the opportunity to do anything underhanded."

Everyone looked at each other, and then it was down to the last one.

The last one was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old Taoist priest from the Chunyang Sect. Under everyone's gaze, his face turned bright red: "I couldn't possibly be the traitor. I went to the warehouse just because I ran out of talismans and wanted to get some more. I've already informed my teacher!"

However, everyone's suspicious gazes still fell on him. Zhao Rusong stared at him and finally said, "I remember that your Chunyang Sect is quite good at drawing talismans, especially explosive talismans."

The Taoist priest Chunyang trembled with rage, pointing at Zhao Rusong and cursing, "Don't you dare throw mud at me like that! Aren't you all good at drawing talismans too? So what if I'm good at it? I'm not going to be a traitor! Why would I be a beast instead of a decent person?"

Zhao Rusong raised an eyebrow, indicating that he didn't mean anything by it, it was just a reasonable speculation, and told him not to be so irritable, otherwise being too irritable would make him look guilty.

The traitor couldn't be found anytime soon, and everyone was getting very impatient. Zhuge Guangming was preoccupied with his cousin's affairs and was completely distracted.

In the end, the noisy discussion didn't reach a conclusion. Li Zixuan stood up and told everyone to go back and rest. This rest period would be in the classroom on the second floor. Everyone would keep an eye on each other and report any suspected individuals immediately.

Afterwards, Xiao Jinli and the others held a meeting in the rest room downstairs from the shop.

The rest area was equipped with a barrier to prevent eavesdropping.

Store Manager Zhang also arrived, and all of them looked solemn.

"Things are much more serious than we thought. Those traitors have actually infiltrated here. What do we do next? Do you have any solutions?" Zhang Xiaoming looked at them with a serious expression.

The little koi frowned, and could only sigh in the end: "The situation is so complicated now, what can I do? That guy is in the human world now, and he can't possibly have time to help us. This time we can only rely on ourselves."

"If Mr. Zhang were here, that would be great," Chen Anshui said subconsciously.

Li Zixuan sighed and said, "Mr. Zhang has his own things to do. Besides, we all need to grow. We can't go to Mr. Zhang for help every time we encounter difficulties. Otherwise, if Mr. Zhang treats us like apprentices and we perform so poorly, wouldn't that be embarrassing for him?"

Han San then spoke up: "Actually, I've always had someone I suspect, but I don't have solid evidence, and people probably wouldn't believe me if I said it, so I haven't said it in public."

All eyes immediately turned to him. Little Koi, with her hands on the table, stood up, leaned close to him, grabbed his collar, and asked, "Tell me quickly, who do you suspect?"

“I suspect Zhao Rusong,” Han San said calmly.

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned, recalling Zhao Rusong's behavior since arriving here. Their eyes met and conveyed the same message: It's unlikely, isn't it?
Among the group of old-school Celestial Masters, Zhao Rusong was among the top in strength, and his family was also very powerful, making him one of the leaders of the righteous sects. One of the leaders of the righteous sects suspected of being a traitor? What a chilling joke! (End of Chapter)
