March 7th looked at Lu Li curiously and said, "Lu Li, if you really have something on your mind, just say it!"

Xing and the others also looked at Lu Li.

Lu Li: "..."

No, it isn't?

How did the situation suddenly escalate to the point where he has to provide a solution?

Lu Li felt like she was suffocating.

These guys, they won't stop until they push him into the fire, right?

Looking at the expectant gazes from everyone, Lu Li felt immense pressure.

But he can't exactly say, "I know we should go to the Crafts Bureau to besiege the Medicine King's Secret Sect, and then go to the Scale Abyss Realm to fight the boss together, can he?"

If this were actually said... let's not even talk about whether it would really disrupt the plot.

Wouldn't that make him an even more powerful star core hunter than the star core hunters themselves?

No, absolutely not!

but……

Lu Li frowned slightly.

I wonder if it's because of his influence.

Although the general plot is the same, the details have been slightly changed.

After all, in the original story, Tingyun didn't abandon the people on the Starry Sky Train and leave alone, Jingliu didn't appear at this time, not to mention Baiheng.

If these different details ultimately lead the ending in a different direction from the original plot...

Although he was reluctant, it seemed he still had to find a way to get the plot back on track.

Lu Li's brain was working at lightning speed.

Is there a way to leak information without exposing oneself...?

The Medicine King's secret techniques, the Star Core, internal and external troubles... I've got it!

"Cough cough."

Lu Li cleared his throat, adopting a deep expression: "Actually, I didn't have any particular thoughts at first."

"But when I heard General Jingyuan mention that the Medicine King's secret techniques were used to cause trouble because of the star core explosion... I did sense that something was wrong."

Lu Li's words successfully attracted everyone's attention.

"Indeed, the secret teachings of the Medicine King have long been hidden on Mount Luofu."

"But they didn't come out earlier or later... they just happened to come out now when Jianmu was acting strangely, the star core was erupting, and Luofu was in chaos."

"Don't you... think all of this is too much of a coincidence?"

Lu Li's words made everyone fall into deep thought.

"You mean..." Walter's expression turned serious, "The Medicine King's Secret Technique isn't just taking advantage of the situation... but might be related to this incident?"

"I have no evidence," Lu Li shook his head. "This is just my guess."

"However, besides this, I have another question."

"That is..."

Lu Li's gaze swept over everyone, finally landing on Jing Yuan's face: "Aren't you all curious...?"

"How did the person who detonated the star core manage to bring it into Luofu and precisely place it beneath the Jianmu tree right under the noses of your Cloud Cavalry and the Grand Diviner?"

Seeing the wide-eyed crowd staring at him, Lu Li narrowed his eyes slightly: "Unless..."

"Unless there's a high-ranking 'insider' who's trusted by everyone... right?" Jing Yuan looked at Lu Li and picked up where he left off.

He had suspected there was a mole before, and his suspicions had always focused on departments and personnel who might have access to the star core.

Although several targets have been identified... no evidence has been found yet.

Unexpectedly, Lu Li deduced that there was an inside agent among the higher-ups of Luofu just from these fragmented pieces of information.

Jing Yuan looked at Lu Li, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.

As expected of Lu Li?

Upon hearing their conversation, March 7 and Xing were stunned into silence.

There's a traitor among the higher-ups at Luofu?

Walter seemed to be deep in thought.

It turned out to be the case.

No wonder someone was able to bring something as dangerous as a star core into the heavily guarded Luofu.

An inside man... then everything makes sense.

Fu Xuan's expression instantly turned serious as he looked at Jing Yuan: "Who is it?"

Jing Yuan shook his head: "I don't know. I only have a few suspects, but I have no evidence."

"However..." Jing Yuan looked at Lu Li, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes, "That's just me."

"I wonder if Mr. Lu Li... knows about this?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan and the others also looked at Lu Li.

Lu Li, once again under the gaze of everyone, was speechless.

He knew, of course he knew.

The one wiping his sword next to you is one of them... cough cough.

Of course, this is something that cannot be discussed.

However, seeing that things were going as he had expected, Lu Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Next is...

Lu Li gave a wry smile: "General Jingyuan, you jest. How could I, someone who has just arrived in Luofu, possibly know something that even you cannot be certain about?"

Fu Xuan was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this: "None of you knew...?"

"However..." Lu Li changed the subject, "I have an idea, but I'm not sure if I should say it..."

"Oh?"

Jing Yuan raised an eyebrow: "What are your thoughts? Tell me."

Lu Li thought for a moment and said, "Based on the information we have so far, it can be deduced that the Medicine King's Secret Teachings are very likely related to the recent resurgence of Jianmu due to the eruption of the star's core."

"Could there be a hidden plan within Luofu's upper echelons to bring the star core into Luofu and implant it into the Jianmu tree?"

Fu Xuan frowned slightly: "Stop beating around the bush, what exactly are you trying to say?"

"Taoist Fu Xuan, don't be in such a hurry." Lu Li smiled mysteriously. "Don't you have any thoughts after hearing what I've said about these two things?"

idea?

Fu Xuan was taken aback.

But as the head of the Grand Diviner, she quickly understood what Lu Li meant.

Fu Xuan was startled: "You mean that inside man... is very likely related to the Medicine King's secret teachings?!"

Lu Li snapped his fingers and smiled, "That's right."

"Therefore, once we solve the secret of the Medicine King, we will likely be able to find out who the inside man is."

Even if the two are unrelated...

Jing Yuan, who was standing to the side, raised an eyebrow and chimed in, "Even if the two are unrelated, resolving the Medicine King's secret technique will alleviate the current chaotic situation in Luofu, right?"

Lu Li and Jing Yuan looked at each other and then burst into laughter at the same time.

Xing and March 7th, who were standing to the side, were both stunned for a moment.

You can... play like this?

And just then...

A rider ran in from outside and whispered a few words in Jing Yuan's ear.

Jing Yuan raised an eyebrow and looked at everyone, saying, "I have good news. The people I sent have finally found them."

Fu Xuan, who was standing to the side, was taken aback upon hearing this: "Found what?"

Jing Yuan replied matter-of-factly, "Of course it's the secret hiding place of the Medicine King."

Fu Xuan: "?"

Upon hearing this, both March 7th and Xing were stunned and somewhat confused.

We've found... the hiding place of the Medicine King's secret teachings?

But they just...

Walter and the others instantly understood everything.

Bai Heng looked at Jing Yuan, who was smiling, somewhat speechless.

It's been seven hundred years... and this guy is still the same.
