Ghost Dancer also looked at Red King with an expression of eagerness to hear more.

After a moment's thought, Chi Junlin said, "Now that things have come to this, I might as well lay it all out in the open."

Although my current identity is the Grand Protector of the Holy Maiden Pavilion, I have never actually betrayed the Sword Harmony Sect.

From the very beginning, I was an undercover agent sent here by the Tongyan faction.

Neither the Ghost Dancer nor the Byun Yokai showed any surprise upon hearing this.

It's obvious that Chi Junlin's identity is so obvious that it's practically a given.

Even within the Demonic Sect today, no one believes that Chi Junlin has truly joined the Demonic Sect.

After all, she hadn't even made a "pledge of allegiance" to join the Demonic Sect.

But since Her Highness the Holy Maiden personally stood up for Chi Junlin, everyone naturally let her be "willful" for a while.

After all, Chi Junlin joined the Holy Maiden Pavilion, not any of the three sects.

This practice of maintaining the old balance within the Demonic Sect naturally did not encounter any opposition.

Chi Junlin then continued, "Since everyone knows my identity, I can naturally reveal it to you two."

The Southern Kingdom's attack on Yindu was not aimed at annihilating tens of thousands of members of the Demonic Sect.

After all, not all the people of Yindu are heinous criminals; their beliefs simply differ from those of the righteous path of the Southern Kingdom.

Therefore, our purpose in coming here is simply to dismantle the Demonic Sect and reduce the threat posed by the Xiangxi Demonic Sect to the Central Plains martial arts world.

In other words, only the ringleaders will be punished.

I can assure you both that as long as you are willing to cooperate with us, we will not pursue the conflicts between the Corpse Driving Sect and the Xuan Yin Sect and the Central Plains over the years.

He then entrusted the governance of the Underworld to the two of them.

However, all of this is predicated on the extermination of the Free Heaven and the Joyful Sect.

What do you two think?

After listening to Chi Junlin's words, the two pondered for a moment.

First, Oni-mahime nodded to Akatsuki and said, "Okay."

Seeing this, Bian Renyao naturally nodded and agreed to Chi Junlin's request.

"Alright, then you two can now send out your men to contact the righteous people outside the city. To show our sincerity, I will now hand over the token to you."

As he spoke, Chi Junlin took one out of his pocket and handed it to Gui Wuji.

He continued, “This jade pendant is my personal keepsake, Tong Yan… When my master saw this jade pendant, he knew that I had gained your trust.”

You can then agree on a password with the people outside the city, working together from within and without to completely wipe out the Joyful Sect.

The two nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Since Chi Junlin has said so, it is clear that when it comes to taking action, they will still need to stay in Yindu.

It's unclear whether this action was to protect the Holy Maiden or to deal with the Heavenly Emperor.

After a brief discussion, the two had the most trusted person in the sect retrieve Chi Junlin's jade pendant, preparing to go to the righteous camp outside the city to verify the truth of Chi Junlin's words.

After this matter was settled, Chi Junlin could entrust it to the two of them with peace of mind and focus his attention on how to deal with Zizaitian.

Thinking of this, Chi Junlin pondered for a moment.

He then asked, "Speaking of which, since arriving in the Underworld, I haven't seen Zizaitian in person even once. Is he really still in the Underworld? Or has he secretly run off to somewhere else?"

After the two pondered for a while, Bian Renyao shook his head and said, "No, although Zizaitian's whereabouts are unpredictable, Yindu Huanxi Sect is his most important core force."

Moreover, he still covets Lan Gexing's Heavenly Demon Freedom Skill, wanting to glean the true meaning of the demon from the few words left by his master.

"Until the very last step, Zizaitian will absolutely not abandon the Joyful Sect and leave Yindu."

After listening to Bian Renyao finish speaking, Chi Junlin nodded slightly.

Then Ghost Dancer continued, "I saw him in front of the Pleasure Cave a few days ago. Although he was wearing a cloak and I couldn't see his face, I was sure it was him, there was no mistake."

Hearing what Ghost Dancer said, Akatsuki was slightly surprised.

He then asked, "When did this happen?"

The Oni Mai-hime then gave the specific time.

Chi Junlin frowned upon hearing this.

Because that was exactly what happened after he and Wenren Xuan went to the Pleasure Cave.

What puzzled her was that since Wenren Xuan was present at the time, why didn't he tell her that she had seen Zizaitian?

However, this is clearly not the time to talk about these things.

Speaking of the Free Heaven, Chi Junlin suddenly thought of something else.

He then said to Bian Renyao, "Speaking of which, I happened to witness the attack on the Holy Maiden Pavilion before I came here."

The Holy Maiden said that it was Jin Si San Jia who went to the Holy Maiden's Pavilion in an attempt to steal Lan Ge Xing's remains.

"May I ask if this order was issued by the Sect Master?"

Upon hearing this, Bian Renyao immediately shook his head and said to Chi Junlin, "I have never given such an order to anyone."

Since her goal was to seize the remains, it must have been an instruction from the Supreme Being.

After all... for us, Lan Gexing's remains are actually of little use.

Only he was alone in heaven; the secret in those bones... was far too important to him.

Chi Junlin nodded slightly upon hearing this.

However, his expression grew increasingly somber.

It seems that all of Lan Gexing's remains in the Underworld have now fallen into the hands of Zizaitian.

Doesn't this mean that the Deva is about to learn all the secrets of the remains?

Just as I was thinking about these things, someone from the Saintess Pavilion came to report.

It seems that Wenren Xuan has discovered some important clue, urging Chi Junlin to return immediately.

Chi Junlin nodded, indicating that he understood.

Upon seeing this, Bian Renyao and Gui Wuji began to discuss contacting the righteous path.

When Chi Junlin saw that the maidservants beside the Ghost Dancer were still the two familiar faces, Zhuque and Qingluan, he suddenly remembered something.

He then asked Ghost Dancer, "Sect Master, was it the Twin Demons who informed us of the Corpse Driving Sect's rebellion?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

Chi Junlin asked in confusion, "Why haven't we seen the twins yet? Where did the sect leader send them?"

Chi Junlin asked this question because he was worried about Yan Sijun and Di Shanshan.

These two girls were disguised as the Twin Demons, and since they were unfamiliar with the area, she was genuinely afraid they would get lost.

Upon hearing this, Oni Muki glanced at Akatsuki with a strange expression.

He continued, "The Great Protector... really does like my two little girls."

Chapter 394 The Death of Ding Xia

Yan Sijun and Di Shanshan had indeed followed Chi Junlin's instructions and brought news of the rebellion to the Xuan Yin Sect.

However, after the matter was over, the two of them did not follow Chi Junlin's instructions to return to the Saintess Pavilion to protect Wenren Xuan.

After meeting Oni-hime, the two received a new mission from her.

That meant heading to the vicinity of the Pleasure Cave to gather intelligence on the Pleasure Sect's activities, in case of unforeseen circumstances.

The identities of the two are still unclear, and they do not want to reveal the fact that they have replaced the Heavenly Demon Twins at this time.

They had no choice but to follow the Demon Dancer's orders and head towards the Pleasure Cave.

Although they verbally agreed, neither of them knew the exact location of the Pleasure Cave.

They couldn't very well ask the other Xuan Nu of the Xuan Yin Sect about such common-sense matters.

So they could only take it one step at a time.

Then they strolled around the Yindu Market.

Upon arriving here, the "Heavenly Demon Twins" found their eyes opened to a whole new world.

The items available at this market are all things that have never been heard of before.

The two strolled around the market stalls with a hint of excitement. When Di Shanshan passed a barbecue stall, she couldn't resist picking up two large black scorpions to buy.

The stall happened to be owned by the Xuan Yin Sect, and after recognizing the "Heavenly Demon Twins," they refused to accept any money from the two of them.

So Di Shanshan handed a skewer of scorpions to Yan Sijun, and then happily ate them as she walked forward.

Although the righteous forces of the Southern Kingdom had already besieged the city, the demonic cultivators within Yindu seemed completely unconcerned.

It seems that these ordinary people are aware of the situation and know that even if the righteous path has a deep-seated blood feud with the demonic sect, they would not carry out a large-scale massacre in the Yin Capital.

At most, they will only purge the Demonic Sect, led by the Demonic Cult.

When the war ends, they'll go back to doing what they were doing before.

However, what is attracting more attention than the upcoming showdown between the righteous and the demonic paths is the current ranking of the Hundred Ghosts List.

Right at the entrance of the market, there was a list displaying the names of a hundred demons.

Due to the recent battle outside the city, many masters of the Demonic Sect on the list have been lost, so the names have been changed.

At this time, many people were still passing messages around and updating the list in real time.

The most striking change is that the top ten rankings have now changed.

Those with good connections have already learned of the deaths of several of the top ten.

Like a broken mountain ridge, an unclean demonic monk, golden silk armor, and the robes of a barbarian saint...

These people have all been replaced by rising stars.

Even the top three positions have changed.

Previously, news of Chi Junlin's defeat of Gui Wuji and Bian Renyao's significant decline in strength due to sect rebellion had been leaked by someone.

Therefore, Ringo, the Grand Protector of the Holy Maiden Pavilion, has surpassed the two people ahead of her in the rankings and has reached the second place.

In the eyes of the Demonic Sect members, the two seemed to be evenly matched with Zizaitian.

Many people feel that the Demonic Sect is about to undergo a major upheaval.

Is the Holy Maiden Pavilion about to reverse its past decline and take a dominant position in the Underworld?

However, these messages don't actually affect the overall situation at present.

It has only become a topic of conversation in the streets and alleys of the underworld for the time being.

Meanwhile, Di Shanshan and Yan Sijun were gnawing on scorpion tails while watching the rankings change with great interest.

Di Shanshan pointed to "Lin Qin" who was second in line and asked, "Is that Senior Sister Lin Jun?"

Yan Sijun thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "I think so."

Di Shanshan nodded and said, "I'm about to become the leader of the Demonic Sect."

Yan Sijun rarely agreed with Di Shanshan.

"Yeah yeah."

As they were talking, Yan Sijun seemed to suddenly realize something and turned to look towards the streets and alleys.

Then, as if realizing something, she took a step into the alley with a puzzled expression.

Where to go?

Di Shanshan immediately raised her head and asked Yan Sijun.

Yan Sijun, as always, did not reply to her, which made Di Shanshan somewhat depressed.

However, I still followed behind her and walked with her into the alley.

As the two entered the depths of the alley, Di Shanshan discovered that Yan Sijun had noticed a strange figure appearing there.

The person looked like a man, but was dressed in women's clothing, which gave off a strange feeling and made him seem unlike a normal person.
