Hidden moth

Chapter 305: The most taboo of intelligence is unintentional
Jiao Bi De was not found, but Luo Mingzhi released him soon. He Kao, who pretended to be Jiao Bi De, had already arrived in Nanhua.

He Kao finally made some time and specially summoned his disciples to make a summary of the recent series of events. Including himself, there were only four people in the Yin'e Sect.

Lan Jiuwan and Ye Liangchen were both there, and Chang Anju also came specially. The leader He Kao still appeared in disguise.

Still in the abandoned industrial park, a conference room was set up in the main building with a closed entrance. He Kao asked everyone to sit wherever they wanted, and Lan Jiuwan naturally sat next to him in the nearest seat.

Lan Jiuwan's eyes became clearer and clearer, especially when she saw He Kao, there was a different look in her eyes.

The other two knew that she had a recent relationship with the headmaster, so they didn't take it seriously. However, the first topic of today's "sect meeting" was the headmaster's criticism of Lan Jiuwan and his self-criticism.

He Kao first asked Lan Jiuwan, when she sneaked into Qiyuan University to investigate, did she find out that Luo Mingzhi was a member of Xiaomeng or an accomplice of Xiaomeng?
Lan Jiuwan replied that he had not found anything.

He Kao asked Lan Jiuwan to describe in detail the process of capturing Jiao Bi De, and then asked in public: Was it possible that she violated the sect rules in this process? If so, which rule did she violate?
I thought the head brother was going to praise Lan Jiuwan for doing a good job, but unexpectedly he asked such a question. Lan Jiuwan and Ye Liangcheng were a little confused.

Chang Anju finally realized what was going on. After a moment's thought, he replied, "It's forbidden to use magic to frame innocent people. If Senior Brother Lan handled the situation inappropriately, it's possible that he violated this sect rule. However, we need to analyze the specific circumstances."

Everyone was smart, and after hearing what was said, they all understood what was going on. He Kao then spoke up, introducing the police investigation and Luo Mingzhi's experience.

Even without Yin'esha, high-level warlocks have many other means of disguise, and many ways to disappear from ordinary people.

But disguising yourself as another person to do things may cause trouble for others. If you are committing a crime, you may end up sending the other person to jail.

Using magic to frame innocent people is a forbidden act in the magic world.

Lan Jiuwan disguised herself as Luo Mingzhi to capture Jiao Bi De, acting on He Kao's instructions and fulfilling a sect mission. She had no intention of framing Luo Mingzhi, and hadn't even considered it, let alone how the police would handle it.

But she didn't make any excuses, only lowered her head and said, "Master Brother was right in his instructions. I was indeed negligent at the time... In fact, if I had been more careful and didn't let the surveillance cameras capture Luo Mingzhi's appearance, this wouldn't have happened."

Lan Jiuwan's attempt to capture Jiao Bi De, a fifth-order cultivator, was a risky one, so she resorted to a disguised sneak attack. While this was not a problem, she was indeed inconsiderate, leading to the police taking Luo Mingzhi away.

Chang Anju further analyzed, "This matter is not irreversible. We can send someone to Qiyuan again and reveal himself as Jiao Bi De, which will clear Luo Mingzhi of suspicion."

He Kao nodded and said, "I have already done so. The person has been released. As the head of the sect, I failed to investigate. I only realized it after being reminded. I should also admit my mistake in this edict!"

Lan Jiuwan did not deliberately frame me; he was simply fulfilling the sect's mission, and no serious consequences were caused. Therefore, today he is merely being warned and punished with seven days of confinement for reflection."

The so-called confinement for reflection actually means seven days of solitary confinement. Lan Jiuwan didn't say a word and nodded immediately to show that he accepted the punishment.

Of course, a sect meeting couldn't just discuss problems; more importantly, it was about summarizing achievements. He Kao conveyed the spirit of the sect's latest announcement and praised the contributions of all the sect members in this incident.

The greatest contribution, of course, went to Lan Jiuwan; after all, she personally captured Jiao Bi De. The clan law hall would certainly reward her for this, and this would be distributed at a later date. We'd know the specifics of the reward when the time came, but it was certain to be there.

Chang Anju traveled to various locations to investigate clues, while Ye Liangchen stayed at the camp to stabilize the rear. They both made contributions, and the sect would not underestimate them. He Kao brought a batch of Jade Pills with him this time, distributing them to the disciples to aid their cultivation.

He also brought a batch of cold needle jade and heavenly palace curtain, which were the raw materials for refining the awakening incense, and assigned them to everyone to work on.

The preliminary process of refining the awakening incense can be handled by Ye Liangchen and Chang Anju. Lan Jiuwan has now broken through to the fourth level of cultivation, and the last step can be left to her.

Jade Pills boosted vitality, while refreshing incense nourished the spirit, essentially meeting the needs of current cultivation. He Kao also specifically explained the key points of practicing the Hidden Moth Technique, as well as the various application techniques, and gave some precautions.

After the meeting, Lan Jiuwan gave a wink, and Chang Anju and Ye Liangchen left first, leaving her alone.

"I thought I was a very careful person, and I hadn't thought about Luo Mingzhi's situation, but it was even more terrifying than not thinking about it, because I didn't even think about it.

When I worked under Ku Cha before, I only cared about completing my goals and not exposing myself. I never considered situations like this... It's just a matter of habit. Fortunately, the head brother specifically pointed it out today."

This was Lan Jiuwan's private self-analysis. He Kao nodded and said, "I know you didn't mean to do it, but it did cause consequences. Not only you, but even I was negligent."

To be honest, this matter really cannot be blamed on He Kao. He Kao just asked Lan Jiuwan to try to capture Jiao Bide and specially gave her Yin'esha, but he could not ask about the specific operational details.

Lan Jiuwan raised her watery eyes and said, "Such a big thing has happened in the Shu Sect recently. I don't know how many people are secretly paying attention to it. The Sect Leader is also the target of public criticism. If he handles it poorly, he will be criticized.

Fortunately, the matter has been resolved, otherwise it might cause you trouble."

This served as a reminder, reminding He Kao of his own situation. Both he and the legendary Yin Moth were being watched by many eyes. If his behavior violated the sect's rules, it might be exposed and used as a topic of discussion.

He Kao sighed, "Practice means cultivating your behavior and seeing the true meaning in nature. Habits become natural, and consciousness becomes habit. If you are clever and cautious only because you fear the punishment of your elders, it is not self-consciousness."

As expected of someone who has made great progress in his practice, his words sounded like those of a respected elder.

Lan Jiuwan nodded: "I understand."

He Kao: "You didn't mean to harm anyone, but you must be more self-aware in the future so as not to make such unintentional mistakes. This time, I'm punishing you by confining you to reflect on your mistakes. This is a good opportunity for you to practice in seclusion for a long time..."

He explained the key to long-term meditation in seclusion, stating that after breaking through to the fourth level, Lan Jiuwan would also need to try this type of practice. After these instructions, Lan Jiuwan asked, "Master, what reward will the Sect Leader Hall give me?"

He Kao finally smiled and said, "It must be a good thing."

Lan Jiuwan's expression also relaxed, and he blinked and asked, "How good can it be?"

He Kao thought for a moment before answering, "The best thing, of course, is a Pure Yang Pill. You definitely won't have any hope with the first batch, but there might still be hope with the second batch."

But I can’t say for sure, so don’t be disappointed if it doesn’t happen.”

Lan Jiuwan: "I'm lucky to have it, and I have no regrets if I lose it... Senior Brother, what exactly is that Pure Yang Pill?"

He Kao gave another brief introduction, focusing on its mysterious effects and the importance of taking it with peony. Finally, he asked, "Regardless of what the clan law hall says, the sect also has other rewards."

Lan Jiuwan lowered her head again and said weakly, "Then, can you help me remove the poison again?"

He Kao: “Uh… okay!”

When He Kao said that Lan Jiuwan might get a Pure Yang Pill, it was not a wish made out of thin air, but he really believed that she deserved it.

Putting aside other things, in the conflict that night, there were seven people who fought the enemy head-on: the four old men from the Fairy Pot Cave, Mei Guyu and He Kao from the Happy Valley, and Lan Jiuwan from Qiyuan University.

If others can obtain the Pure Yang Pill, why can't Lan Jiuwan? Forget about the second furnace, the first furnace should have it! Of course, there is no place to say this for the time being, so I will have to talk it out with the three elders later.

Ye Hui sent Wu Yanjun to remind him that other things were easy to deal with, but there was one thing that was very important, which was to tell He Kao that his "master" might not say anything for the time being and just wait and see what he was going to do?
This solved a question in He Kao's mind.

The Pure Yang Pill was so effective, and the method of taking it was very particular, but the three old men did not remind him in advance, nor did they give any instructions afterwards, or even a message. It was Mei Guyu who informed him.

It seems that this is a test, or an exam. Let's see how he will respond?

Because the interests involved were extremely huge, if the master gave an order that He Kao had to obey, it would not be his original intention, so the three old men simply remained silent.

On the other hand, He Kao, the head of the Yin'e Sect and a respected elder, would sooner or later have to stand on his own. Having a master's guidance today was certainly good, but in the future, without a master's guidance, would he be able to handle all matters properly?
From the perspective of a sect elder, He Kao has to consider not only what he has done personally, but also the orders he has issued and how his disciples have executed them.

There was obviously something wrong with Luo Mingzhi's case, but He Kao himself did not notice it because there were too many other things going on during this period. Instead, it was Mei Guyu who reminded him in time.

It was necessary for the sect to establish this rule, because sometimes a small oversight could ruin an innocent person's life. Lan Jiuwan's mistake was roughly equivalent to swinging the knife without paying attention to the person next to him.

He Kao rethought the meaning of "becoming a master". It was not just about having enough skills to make a living, but also about being able to do things without worry even without a master watching over him.

Mr. Qian gave He Kaoben half a month of sick leave. He Kaoben planned to go to Shenwan City, where Gao Xue'e was attending executive training at the group headquarters, which would also end in half a month.

Before the people here set off, they received a notice from Jiang Daozhen that Elder Jiang wanted him to go to Jinghua Cave Heaven.

He Kao had been there before. Theoretically, he could reach the portal in one step, but Elder Jiang asked him to take the high-speed rail and had already booked a ticket for him.

There is a little humor in the information age. As long as you know Zhang San's name and ID number, you can book train tickets and plane tickets for him. If you know his contact information, the message can be sent directly to his mobile phone.

Zhang San’s only choice is to sit or not.

He Kao was also surprised when he received the itinerary information and didn't understand why the old man made such arrangements.
