Primordial Treasure Mirror

Just as the thought that Zhang Wan and the others might be related to Su Yang popped into his head.

Liu Mei's first reaction was negative.

After all, in her opinion.

Su Yang was only a Qi Refining Level 2 cultivator; there was no way he could do anything to Zhang Wan or those Qi Refining Level 2 cultivators.

The two are worlds apart in strength.

She didn't believe that Su Yang could get rid of Zhang Wan and the others quietly.

But upon closer reflection later...

Suddenly I realized something was wrong.

It seems that ever since Su Yang joined the sect, both Steward Ding Yue and Steward Pang Yue, who offended him, have gotten into trouble.

Although this could be a coincidence.

After all, Ding Yue and Pang Yue had offended too many menial disciples, and Su Yang was just one of them.

But Liu Mei was very uneasy.

Ding Yue and Pang Yue were one thing, but as far as she knew, Zhang Wan and the others had only ever targeted Su Yang.

If their disappearance wasn't due to them descending the mountain on their own, but rather because something happened...

The only person who might retaliate against them is Su Yang.

at this time.

Liu Mei couldn't help but recall the matter of the Demonic Sect spy from a few days ago.

"Could Su Yang be a spy for the Demonic Sect?"

Liu Mei couldn't help but think.

If Su Yang is a spy for the Demonic Sect, then everything can be explained.

I also knew Liu Mei, the traitor from the Demonic Sect on Emerald Peak.

Normally, he only has the cultivation level of the third level of Qi Refining.

As a result, he unleashed tremendous power that day, severely injuring the outer sect steward.

It is evident that the spies of the Demonic Sect all have methods to conceal their true strength.

"However, Su Yang should have also been examined by Foundation Establishment cultivators. Could it be that even Foundation Establishment cultivators couldn't detect it?"

A layer of cold sweat involuntarily broke out on Liu Mei's forehead.

If her guess is correct.

That not only suggests that Zhang Wan and the others were likely killed by Su Yang, but also that there are more lurking spies from the demonic sect within the Qingyang Sect.

The key is.

If Su Yang knew what she was doing behind her back, would she still be alive?

The more Liu Mei thought about it, the more frightened she became.

I tossed and turned for most of the night.

The next day, he was absent-minded. After finishing his work, he hurriedly left Cuiling Peak and headed to Lingyang Peak, the outer sect peak where Wu Buyan was located.

In a courtyard on Lingyang Peak.

Wu Buyan was sitting cross-legged, practicing his cultivation.

Hearing the knocking on the door, he stopped his cultivation, opened his eyes, and frowned.

Upon opening the door, he saw Liu Mei standing anxiously at the entrance and a hint of surprise appeared on his face:

"Junior Sister Liu, what brings you here?"

Wu Buyan had previously instructed them not to come looking for him on ordinary days, and that if he had something to do, he would go to Cui Ling Peak to find Liu Mei and the others.

Liu Mei looked around, then followed Wu Buyan into the room. After closing the door, Liu Mei lowered her voice and blurted out her guesses.

"Senior brother, Su Yang is very likely to be involved in something. The matter involving Zhang Wan and the others is too suspicious; it can't be such a coincidence."

"And Ding Yue and Pang Yue, I suspect Su Yang was also behind it. He likely infiltrated the sect while concealing his strength and identity!"

After listening to Liu Mei's words.

Wu Buyan did not speak immediately.

After a brief silence, he slowly began to speak:

"You think he's a spy for the Demonic Sect?"

Liu Mei nodded and then shook her head:

"I'm not sure, but he definitely has a problem."

"I thought that person was strange from the beginning. He seemed too confident, even daring to refuse your request, senior brother."

"Furthermore, I observed yesterday that Zhang Wan and her group had clearly targeted him, but when they left, he didn't react at all, acting as if nothing had happened. He was too calm."

Seeing his nervous expression, Wu Buyan couldn't help but sigh and shake his head:

"Junior Sister Liu, aren't you overthinking this?"

"Which of us wasn't personally investigated by the Foundation Establishment elders? If Su Yang were truly a spy for the Demonic Sect or hiding his strength, he would have been found out long ago."

"He can't possibly be a Foundation Establishment cultivator doing menial tasks, can he?"

"As for Zhang Wan and her group, they are just a bunch of rogue cultivators. They were never settled and couldn't get used to life in a sect, so it's normal for them to run away."

"You shouldn't worry too much. Focus on your cultivation and break through to the third level of Qi Refining as soon as possible."

Liu Mei opened her mouth, wanting to refute.

However, Wu Buyan's tone was too certain.

She really didn't know what to say, since she had no evidence, only inferences and intuition.

Seeing this, Wu Buyan nodded. At this moment, he couldn't help but recall the time when Su Yang refused to lend him Huangya Dan.

The dissatisfaction in my heart was brought to the surface.

Su Yang was a newly initiated handyman disciple.

How dare she refuse his request? She really doesn't know what's good for her.

Now Liu Mei is becoming suspicious and paranoid, which is very annoying.

He thought for a moment, then spoke:

"Alright then, since you think he's a nuisance, I'll take care of him for you."

Liu Mei was struggling with how to start the conversation when she heard this and suddenly froze:

"What does Senior Brother mean?"

Wu remained silent, his tone calm:

"Find an opportunity to kill him."

"He's just a menial disciple. As long as he leaves the sect, we can just find a secluded place outside and kill him."

"If a menial disciple dies outside, no one in the sect will care."

He said it so casually, as if he were talking about what to eat next.

Liu Mei was overjoyed, but then a wave of worry washed over her:

"Senior brother, if he really is a spy for the Demonic Sect, and Ding Yue, Pang Yue, Zhang Wan and others were really killed by him, then his strength should not be underestimated."

"If you lay a hand on him, wouldn't that be...?"

Wu Buyan waved his hand to interrupt her, saying somewhat impatiently:

"I've already said it, he couldn't possibly be a spy for the Demonic Sect, nor could he possibly be hiding too much of his strength."

"Even if he has some skills, he's only at the third or fourth level of Qi Refining at most. I'm already at the sixth level of Qi Refining. How could he possibly be my match?"

Liu Mei was slightly taken aback. She wanted to say something, but seeing the impatient look on Wu Buyan's face, she swallowed her words.

Wu Buyan nodded slightly upon seeing this:

"Keep a close eye on him after you go back. The day he leaves the sect, come and tell me, and I'll help you resolve this problem."

Liu Mei bit her lip and nodded.

But the unease in her heart did not dissipate.

"With Senior Brother Wu taking action, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Liu Mei comforted herself and left Lingyang Peak.

When we returned to Emerald Peak.

She glanced at Su Yang's small, dilapidated house from afar.

It was quiet there.

But she always felt like she was facing a raging flood.

......

Su Yang was unaware that Liu Mei had gone to find Wu Buyan.

He has been practicing alchemy and cultivation for the past two days.

His cultivation progressed steadily.

He spent his free time studying magic and that bluish-black stone.

Su Yang had already made some progress regarding the mysterious bluish-black stone.

We just need to experiment for a few more days to determine if our guess is correct.

Several days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Su Yang has been living a regular and fulfilling life lately.

After Zhang Wan and her group disappeared.

On Emerald Peak, no one bothered him anymore.

Liu Mei was also quite well-behaved.

Although when he was out and about, he could occasionally sense that someone was watching him from the shadows.

But as long as there's no concrete action, he doesn't care about it.

And these days.

He has made some progress in his research on bluish-black stones.
