Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

After all, not many people in this world know Wenren Tianxia's background, or that she has a younger sister who has been living away from home.

Aside from her, how many people actually know about this?

If she really is Ye Qiancao, and wants to find an explanation to deceive herself, she can find more clever and flawless excuses.

There's no need to deceive with such an obvious answer.

Looking back on what happened after Wenren Tianxia met Wenren Xuan, it can only be said that Wenren Xuan, under Ye Qiancao's manipulation, played some rather wicked pranks on her.

It didn't actually cause her any real harm.

But if Wenren Tianxia were to actually kill her sister because of this... who knows how much he would regret it then!

It's likely that Ye Qian was planning this, which is why she sent Wenren Xuan to get close to Wenren Tianxia.

Having figured this out, Wenren Tianxia also looked at Wenren Xuan with a complicated expression.

Wenren Xuan also smiled wryly, revealing a helpless expression.

At this moment, Chi Junlin pondered for a moment, then asked Wenren Xuan, "When did you start appearing by Wenren Tianxia's side? Have you been with us all this time?"

Wenren Xuan replied, "I first met Sister Wenren Tianxia a few months ago when she came to Dongting Lake."

That time, Ye Qian and I...

"Okay, I understand, you don't need to say anything more!"

Upon hearing this, Wenren Tianxia's face immediately darkened.

He seemed deeply ashamed of what happened.

This piqued Chi Junlin's curiosity: what exactly had Ye Qiancao done to Wenren Tianxia on the other side of Dongting Lake?

Wenren Xuan, out of consideration for her sister's feelings, nodded slightly with a hint of embarrassment.

Then she continued to Chi Junlin, "As for this period of time, Ye Qiancao has actually been with me the whole time. But sometimes it was me, and sometimes it was her."

"Be specific?"

Wenren Xuan thought for a moment and said, "The first time you met Miss Lin Jun, the one you saw upstairs was her. Later, she was the one who made a big fuss about entering the city."

However, on the day of the evacuation from Nandu, it was actually me who Wenren-jie encountered. Outside the city, it was also me who was stopped by Miss Lin Jun along with Bian Renyao-jie—a fact that even Bian Renyao-jie herself didn't realize.

Chi Junlin nodded, recalling the scene from that day, and indeed felt that Ye Qiancao's behavior was inconsistent before and after.

Sometimes he is incredibly intelligent and wicked, inspiring fear. Other times he seems weak, as if he has a split personality.

Thinking about it carefully, they really do resemble two different people.

Then Wenren Xuan continued, "As for the time at Cangjian Manor, the person you first encountered was Ye Qiancao, who was impersonating Di Shanshan. After all, my acting skills are not as good as hers."

However, when she went outside to find Di Shanshan later, she also called me over and told me what to do.

After that, she hid on the main peak and didn't go into Sword Emperor Peak with us. It wasn't until we were rescued that she re-exchanged with me.

Upon hearing this, Di Shanshan was immediately stunned and subconsciously asked, "Is that so?"

Clearly, she hadn't expected that Ye Qian's scheme would have a scheme within a scheme, and a scheme within a scheme.

But she was completely unaware that the two "Ye Qiancao" were inconsistent!

Upon careful reflection, Chi Junlin indeed felt that there were subtle differences between Ye Qiancao on Sword Emperor Peak and Ye Qiancao soaking in the hot spring.

Not to mention Di Shanshan, even Chi Junlin felt somewhat surprised.

So he asked, "So, on Sword Emperor Peak, it was actually you all along?"

Wenren Xuan nodded and looked at Chi Junlin.

Then, as if remembering something, she blushed and lowered her head again.

Wenren Tianxia frowned and asked, "So after you came down from the mountain, you two switched identities? Did she come to the Southern Kingdom with you?"

Wenren Xuan shook his head and said, "I don't know. Ever since we came back from the hot spring that night, Ye Qiancao and I switched identities one last time."

She left after that, and I haven't seen her since.

But on the night she left, she quietly told me, "From now on, you are a free person."

So I guess she will reappear in front of you in the next few days.

Now it seems that this is indeed the case.

After hearing Renxuan's explanation, Chi Junlin gained a general understanding of these matters.

However, at this time she did not completely trust Wenren Xuan.

Instead, he continued, "You've lived in the Demonic Sect for so many years, growing up alongside the sect's Holy Maiden, Ye Qiancao. If what you say is true, what are your views on the Demonic Sect? And what are your views on Ye Qiancao?"

Upon hearing Chi Junlin's words, everyone turned to look at Wenren Xuan, wanting to hear her reply.

Wenren Xuan took a deep breath and said, "I know what Miss Lin Jun means, but to be honest, although Ye Qiancao and I both grew up in the Demonic Sect, our thoughts are very different."

I have never considered myself a member of the Demonic Sect, because Ye Qiancao always told me that I did not belong there at all, and that one day I would leave to find my own life outside.

To be honest, although outsiders all regard Ye Qiancao as Lan Gexing's true successor, he is yet another demon among demons, a great scourge to the martial arts world...

But I am actually very grateful to her.

Because all these years, she has been protecting me.

Unlike me, the real Ye Qiancao is highly skilled in martial arts and has deeply inherited Lan Gexing's true teachings.

However, Lan Gexing passed away very early and did not have much to teach us.

But even without any guidance, Ye Qiancao still grew into the person she is today.

Everyone has to admit that she was born evil, a born saintess of the demonic sect…

Chapter 230 The Veil That Cannot Be Lifted

Even after leaving the woodshed, the wrinkles on Chi Junlin's brow did not disappear.

Although Wenren Xuan revealed her identity, she staged a scene of sisters recognizing each other in front of everyone.

However, Ye Qiancao's purpose was still unclear.

The fog surrounding her face was even thicker than it had been at the beginning.

He thought he had the elusive Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect under control, but in reality he only had control over one of her clones.

This gave Red King's Landing a certain feeling.

It was as if she lifted a corner of the curtain, thinking she was about to see a beautiful actress's wonderful performance.

But all I saw beneath the curtain were layers upon layers of ever-deeper curtains.

Chi Junlin even had to guess which layer of curtain concealed the true beauty.

As for Wenren Tianxia, ​​he was even more at a loss after learning Wenren Xuan's true identity.

Although there was joy on her face, there was more confusion than joy.

She was confused about how to face her origins and how to get along with the "younger sister" who suddenly appeared in front of her.

But these are things that Wenren Tianxia should worry about herself; Chi Junlin can't offer her much help.

Therefore, Wenren Tianxia and Wenren Xuan were allowed to spend time alone together, so that they could get to know each other better.

As for Chi Junlin himself, he was now in Tong Yan's room.

Upon entering, one can see Wan Zhaoji lying weakly on the bed.

Tong Yan is giving her acupuncture to speed up her recovery.

Upon seeing Chi Junlin enter, Tong Yan turned her head and asked, "Have you clarified the matter?"

Chi Junlin shook his head, his expression slightly complicated, and replied, "The fact that I didn't ask clearly only makes things more complicated. The Ye Qiancao we know now isn't Ye Qiancao; it's Wenren Xuan. Ye Qiancao has long since run off to who knows where."

Tong Yan looked bewildered and asked, "What do you mean? Who is Wenren Xuan? How come there's another person here?"

Chi Junlin sighed and recounted the situation to Tong Yan again.

Tong Yan also fell silent.

She then sighed repeatedly, "As expected of the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect? So unpredictable and ever-changing... it's truly... I don't know what to say."

"is not that right……"

Chi Junlin shook his head as he spoke, seemingly unwilling to delve deeper into the topic.

Instead, he looked at Yuan Zhaoji on the bed and asked, "Where is she? How is she now?"

At this point, Yuan Zhaoji's body was covered with needles, and she dared not move an inch.

When Chi Junlin entered, he could only watch her longingly.

Upon hearing this, Tong Yan smiled and said, "She was perfectly healthy to begin with, so she's fine now. It was because you were worried that Ye Qiancao had used some kind of poison on her that I used acupuncture to detoxify her."

However, it now seems that she was not poisoned, but rather drugged with some kind of sleeping potion.

After the acupuncture is finished, I'll prescribe a calming herbal decoction for her, and then she'll be fine.

Chi Junlin nodded and then said to Tong Yan, "Thank you for your trouble."

Tong Yan laughed and replied, "Why would I tell you all this?"

After Tong Yan finished performing acupuncture on Yuan Zhaoji, she went to the pharmacy to brew herbal medicine.

At this moment, Chi Junlin helped Wan Zhaoji up from the bed and asked with concern, "Are you feeling better?"

Wan Zhaoji nodded, and said to Chi Junlin with a hint of shyness, "Commander-in-Chief, there's no need to be so concerned about me. But what about the guards who came with me? How are they doing?"

Upon seeing Yuan Zhaoji like this, Chi Junlin finally felt a sense of familiarity that brought him peace of mind.

Yuan Zhaoji was such a reserved, demure, and kind-hearted beautiful woman.

Although Ye Qiancao could initially act very convincingly, there were some inherent qualities that could not be faked.

Thinking of this, Chi Junlin smiled and then said to Yuan Zhaoji, "Don't worry, the other guards are also in other coffins, and they have already been rescued."

However… some bodies of unknown origin were also found in other coffins. I’m having my staff investigate their identities.

Do you have any clues about this?

Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhaoji shook her head and said, "I don't know where those corpses came from. After I was drugged, when I opened my eyes again, it was already you."

I have no recollection of anything else, so I don't know anything about it.

Chi Junlin nodded, then became serious and said to Yuan Zhaoji, "What else do you know? It would be best if you told me everything from the beginning so that I can have a general understanding."

Yuan Zhaoji nodded in agreement.

Then, he told Chi Junlin the whole story of how he was kidnapped.

This whole incident probably started when Yuan Zhaoji came to the vicinity of the Southern Kingdom.

Because they had rushed here and were unfamiliar with the roads, Wan Zhaoji and her party originally planned to stay overnight in a prefecture further away from Nandu on the night of the attack.

However, because they were in a hurry to get on their way, the group traveled several dozen miles more and then stopped at the Longxian post station.

The post station staff were initially unwilling to receive them, but when the guards produced the imperial pass, the staff had no choice but to open the door and let them in.

However, shortly after entering the post station, Wan Zhaoji discovered that something was amiss.

Because the post station was so dilapidated, the guest rooms were covered with a thick layer of dust, and there was no feed in the mangers, as if it had not been used for a long time.

These weren't really problems, and the courier was quite attentive. He quickly cleaned their room and even killed a chicken to make chicken soup for Yuan Zhaoji.

Immediately afterwards, when the courier was killing a chicken, Yuan Zhaoji noticed something extremely suspicious.

That is, even though this is a deserted post station, there are many footprints near the woodshed behind the saddle.

Furthermore, the threshold in front of the woodshed was very smooth, as if someone frequently walked on it, without accumulating a speck of dust.

Yuan Zhaoji sensed that there was something in the woodshed, so when the postman wasn't looking, she had a guard who knew how to pick locks open the door.

Then, upon entering, they found a large number of coffins inside the room.

Furthermore, some observations were made with strange talismans and lines drawn with chicken blood, which looked extremely eerie.

At this moment, Wan Zhaoji also realized that something was wrong with this post station.

However, instead of alerting the enemy, they returned the way they came and had the guards lock the woodshed again.

They then used the excuse that the inn's environment was so bad that it was unbearable for anyone to stay there.

They then left the post station with the others and chose to camp in the nearby woods.
