The traitor saint has to go back to the Holy Alliance to confirm the information.
The purple-haired beauty, the Imperial Preceptor, spoke in a formal tone, as if entrusted with an important task:
"Bu Miao, you'll have to go back and gather intelligence to see how the Holy Alliance reacts after this incident. Also, keep an eye on the movements of the Witch Tomb members for Master Chu."
The face of Saint Hehuan was not looking good. Her pure and seductive beauty was shrouded in a sad expression. Even her wailing had a certain charm, as if she had been abandoned by someone.
"I'm not saying anything, but after all this chaos, I'm really scared to go back. What if I show up and get caught? How much suffering would that make me suffer..."
Before, Bu Miao had frequently tipped off Bai Kongque, and he was already worried.
Because the Holy Alliance has taken actions against the Kingdom of Jingjue and the Shenshui Sect one after another, and each time they were able to "coincidentally" escape danger.
If it happens too many times, it's basically a matter of leaking the news.
And this time, Bu Miao was caught red-handed by Elder Zhao Xie. It seemed that they were all wiped out, but who knows whether they used any special means to pass the news back?
You can't gamble on this kind of thing. If you make a mistake once, you won't be able to do it next time.
Moreover, after Elder Zhao Xie and his men were ambushed, another group of evil cultivators who came to check on the situation were captured alive.
This is really a bit outrageous!
Bu Miao could already imagine that the hatred was so great that she would definitely launch an internal rectification after returning to catch the traitor!
Chu Wuji originally wanted to help Bu Miao and plead for mercy. It was indeed time to end the insider operation. However, when he heard that Bu Miao could get information about the Wuzhong members, he changed his mind and said:
"Thank you for your hard work, Bu Miao. Take care of yourself when you go back. If there are any difficulties, just overcome them!"
"...Is this a problem that can be overcome?" Saint Hehuan said unhappily, her complaining expression sounding like she was acting coquettishly and scolding.
Chu Wuji stopped joking and said:
"Just observe and see. If suspicion really falls on you, even at the slightest sign of trouble, you should withdraw.
If you confirm that they are safe and sound, then slowly inquire about the information."
Bu Miao finally heard some sensible words from her companions. Although she still had to return to the Holy Alliance, she felt much better.
White Peacock added:
"If the Sun and Moon Kingdom's affairs are thoroughly investigated, Bu Miao, you can try to shift the blame to Wu Zhong."
"How do you shirk responsibility?"
Bu Miao raised her slender eyebrows. If there was a way to shirk responsibility, she would naturally be very happy to see it.
The female national teacher explained:
"It's said that a member of the Wuzhong Tomb attempted a sacrifice there, and the spirit of the ancestors appeared again, which is why the immortal cultivators frequently appeared there."
"Does this excuse hold water? Without any reason, where did the Wuzhong members come from?"
Bu Miao expressed his doubts, but he couldn't just come up with reasons without any evidence. He had to have some concrete proof to convince the elders of the Holy Alliance.
Chu Wuji curled his lips and asked:
"Bu Miao, have you forgotten that we performed two sacrifices right in front of you? Lead the others to confirm the aura."
Saint Hehuan suddenly realized that she had been so busy worrying about the various issues and arrangements she would have to make after returning to her master that she had neglected this matter.
"That can indeed be used as an excuse..."
The chat was over, and Bu Miao's psychological preparation was also over. It was obvious that she was very reluctant and really didn't want to be a traitor around her master.
But Bu Miao also understood the situation well. He knew that there was not much meaning for him to stay in the Shenshui Sect at the moment, and the right thing to do was to help his companions find some important information.
Now that the Holy Alliance has set its sights on the Divine Water Sect, if Bu Miao doesn't become a traitor, her master might come with his men to kill her one day and see her hanging out with the Divine Water Sect...
I can’t bear to think about that situation. Just imagining it sends chills down my spine.
"That's enough for now. If I do get caught later, don't even think about saving me. You could get yourself into trouble too."
Bu Miao sighed repeatedly, waved goodbye, stood up and flew away, her graceful and charming figure soon disappeared in the clouds.
The Crane Immortal did not respond until the Holy Lady Hehuan had gone far away, then he sighed and said:
"Little Qilin's path is truly devious. How could even Saint Hehuan be a traitor?"
Although it is said that Chu Wuji makes friends randomly, this person is not an ordinary evil cultivator, but a direct disciple of the leader of the Hehuan Sect, and his status is not low.
It is said that he has developed a conniving relationship with the evil cultivators, and now the Holy Lady Hehuan is acting as a traitor for him, which can be regarded as a disguised way of targeting the evil cultivators of the demonic path.
It’s so complicated…
Chu Wuji couldn't tell whether this was a compliment or a criticism from Hexianren, so he could only laugh and let the matter go.
He turned to inquiring about the real business and spoke to Auntie Guoshi:
"National Master, how do the Divine Water Sect plan to settle down in the future? Will they settle directly in the Kingdom of Jingjue?"
As far as I can remember, the population of the Kingdom of Jingjue is sparse, and there is indeed enough space to accommodate these new members, but I am afraid that they will all be wiped out at once.
White Peacock had already made plans and said:
"I plan to borrow the Buddhist cave left behind by the Black Sky Tantric Sect and take up residence there. If I can gain control of it, I can look after the Queen of Jingjue in the future."
This is a good idea. The biggest problem with the previous alliance between White Peacock and the Queen of Jingjue was that they were too far apart.
If something really happens suddenly, there will be no time to deal with it.
The Kingdom of Jingjue and the Kingdom of Liangjin are close to each other in terms of location, and using them as new strongholds can allow for more secure expansion.
There is just one problem. The sudden revival of the Liangjin Kingdom is very suspicious...
Chu Wuji was about to ask when Fu Guanyin thought of the same thing as him and spoke first:
"White Peacock, there's a problem with your plan. What if the evil cultivators pass through there and discover the changes in Liangjin Country? Wouldn't that expose our plan?"
Xuan Yi said lightly:
"Yes, even if the Holy Alliance is unsure of the reason for the changes in Liangjin Kingdom, they will definitely be curious and 'pry open the treasure chest' to see who is hiding inside."
White Peacock nodded. She had also thought of this. Currently, there was only a temporary solution:
"I plan to have the believers disguise themselves as Buddhist monks and announce to the public that the monks have gathered here to rebuild the Buddhist city."
[Alas, the Buddha said that after his passing, the devil would put on robes, disguise himself as a monk, and sit in the Buddhist temple. It is indeed true...]
Everyone was silent for a moment, tacitly ignoring Cihang Yuanjun's words.
Chu Wuji's brain glowed, and an idea suddenly came to him. He said:
"I have a plan. No need to pretend. I can just announce to the public that it's the Bodhisattva who has appeared. I can attract some Buddhist monks and order them to rebuild Liangjin City. This will serve as a cover to deceive the Holy Alliance!"
Aunt Green Snake already knew his temper very well and answered quickly:
"It just so happens that the underworld is right here. After we use up those Buddhist monks, we can directly send them to the underworld. This will kill two birds with one stone and take care of both the Shenshui Sect and the underworld."
Chu Wuji touched his aunt's snake head, gave her a thumbs up, and said:
"Right! As expected of my aunt, you already know what I'm thinking. But I have to correct you. This is killing three birds with one stone!"
"Huh? Where did the other bird come from?" Aunt Green Snake didn't understand this.
Chu Wuji revealed the secret:
"Promote Buddhism and purify the atmosphere of Buddhist organizations! This can also be considered as helping Guanyin repay Cihang Yuanjun for her kindness in spreading the Dharma."
【well!!】
Cihang Yuanjun's sighs became louder, mixed with complex emotions such as anger, irritation, and regret.
She felt more and more like she was inviting a wolf into the house!
Chapter 584 The identity of the insider is exposed? !
Bu Miao returned to the Holy Land of the Hehuan Sect with a nervous mood and a heavy heart, and did not dare to go to the Holy Alliance.
This trip had tricked someone from another demon sect. If this was exposed, she was worried that she would be torn to pieces before the interrogation even started.
"Miao'er, you're back. Where have you been recently?"
Madam Chunyan, the leader of the Hehuan Sect, asked, pinching the lid of the bowl and fiddling with the tea leaves in the bowl.
Bu Miao's heart skipped a beat. This kind of question was the most distressing, as it was like questioning about the itinerary.
Had they been exposed? They had clearly wiped out Elder Zhao Xie's group. Did something go wrong?
"My disciple was out and about, and the Sun Moon Nation was quite famous, so I went over to take a look out of curiosity, and saw... Alas!"
Madam Chunyan placed the tea bowl on the table and pushed it towards her disciple, signaling Bu Miao to drink the tea.
The steps of the Holy Maiden Hehuan were always like a slow dance, but now her jade feet seemed to be filled with lead, and even her steps seemed heavy. She pulled over a chair and sat down, her eyes fixed on the bowl of tea, and she quietly observed her master's reaction.
However, Madam Chunyan's face looked slightly gloomy, showing no joy or anger, but one could feel that she was in a very bad mood.
Now he's handed her tea, but she hasn't said a word. Could it be that the tea is poisoned and will lead to her death?!
Just as Bu Miao was torn between inner thoughts and the inner struggle, Madam Chunyan spoke up and said:
"I was hoping to discuss this worry with you, but Miao'er, you already knew about it. I guess you ran into the Holy Alliance team and encountered some mishap there?"
...Hmm? Why doesn't it seem like you're blaming me?
Bu Miao did not dare to hesitate and nodded and replied:
"Yes, there happened to be an immortal cultivator passing by at that time, who rescued those villains from the Divine Water Sect!
When I got there, it was already over and I couldn’t catch up…”
Madam Chunyan did not pay attention to her disciple. She wondered:
"Why would the immortal cultivators wait for the people of the Holy Alliance as if they knew our whereabouts?!
I just talked to a few people from other sects and I think someone must have leaked the news, but there are only so many people in the Holy Alliance meeting, who could have leaked the news?"
Bu Miao's heart was in her throat. She swallowed hard, and the smile on her face became a little stiff.
"The seniors at the same level as the Sect Master will naturally not be suspected, but the ones at the next level down will be suspected. Will my disciple be suspected as well?"
Madam Chunyan glanced at her own disciple and nodded faintly:
"Some people do have doubts. The old fellow from 'Blood Boy Reverse Training Cave' thought you, Miao'er, were suspicious, but after this incident, no one doubts you anymore."
"Um?!"
Bu Miao almost showed a look of surprise, but she controlled her expression and asked calmly:
"It's perfectly reasonable to suspect a junior like me, but why do you suddenly stop doubting me?"
"Because this time, the Holy Alliance specifically chose your absence to arrange the operation against the Sun and Moon Nation, but something still went wrong."
This is the process of elimination. Some actions failed when Bu Miao was present before.
If Bu Miao was not present for this operation but it was completed smoothly, even if it could not be used as irrefutable evidence, Bu Miao's suspicion would increase sharply.
Although Elder Zhao Xie, who was sent this time, was from the Hehuan Sect, it was not because the sect leader suspected his own disciple. He was just worried that people from other forces in the Holy Alliance would conspire to frame him, so he arranged his own people to keep an eye on him.
After the demonic sects unite, they need to be more careful about their own people to prevent being swallowed up.
Bu Miao really wiped away a cold sweat.
She wanted to say that the elders of the Holy Alliance were really good at judging people. At that time, she was arrested on the spot by Elder Zhao Xie. If Chu Wuzhi had not provided timely support, something would have been wrong!
Saint Hehuan regained her composure. She recounted the previous situation and said:
"While I was walking over there, I ran into a group of people performing a sacrifice. The beings that appeared for the sacrifice were quite powerful. The immortal cultivators might be going after them."
“…Is there such a thing?”
Madam Chunyan pondered for a moment, but ultimately decided not to spend too much energy on it. She was truly exhausted, and said:
"Forget it, let's think about it later. Before you came back, Miao'er, I had been wondering if the Holy Alliance was using the guise of testing the traitor to weaken the strength of our Hehuan Sect and plot to annex it."
This time, the Holy Alliance tried to touch the trump card of the emerging Shenshui Sect and suffered a great loss. The Hehuan Sect was also very upset because it lost an elder.
People at the level of elders can be regarded as the contemporary backbone of the sect. No matter how many magic weapons and skills they have, someone is needed to use them.
Moreover, although there are many lower-level disciples in the Demonic Sect, if something really big happens, the elders will still have to take charge.
Fortunately, this time, it was not only the Hehuan Sect that lost its elders, but other sects also suffered losses. This is one of the few good news.
Bu Miao listened, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he complained in his heart:
"As expected, it's still difficult for people from the demonic sect to form an alliance through negotiation. Every step they take is accompanied by concerns about whether it will harm them..."
She didn't think her master's worries were a problem. This was the way to survive in the demonic world. Those who didn't have this kind of vigilance would have long since become vassals of other families.
