Infiltrating the righteous path? Just another place to be a sycophant.

Are all these cultivators mentally ill?

This isn't saving someone; it's just putting them to death.

"So, this contestant, you still say you're not an undercover agent!?" Zhang Kefan asked, pointing at the group of people.

"Damn it, I'm not pretending anymore!"

Seeing that he had been exposed, the uncle suddenly took off his apron, and then a long knife materialized in his hand, which he was about to slash at Lu An.

No, why are you all attacking me?! Who are you all tasked with killing?!

"Lu An, you traitor to the demonic path, you will surely die today!"

The speed at which the sword was swung was so fast that Lu An could hardly see it. Lu An thought to himself that this time he was really doomed, but Elder Zhang stretched out his arm and blocked the long sword with his arm.

Bang!

The moment the longsword touched Zhang Kefan's body, it vibrated violently, bounced off, and then broke in two.

Physical body... physical body achieving sainthood!?

Martial arts cultivation!?

“I’m sorry, Elder Lu, I’ve gone to all this trouble again, but I just couldn’t help it.” Elder Zhang flexed his strong biceps, which gleamed with a bronze sheen. “I simply couldn’t bear it. My fellow clansmen were harmed in front of me! That was my sin! My fault!”

It sounds like there's a story behind it.

But you... how come someone as tough as you is an elder in the Spirit Food Hall?

Could it be that those who cook are actually former top executives?

I really can't figure it out.

"Even if I can't kill you, don't be so smug. Today, Lu An, you must die!"

As he spoke, the uncle pulled a round thunderbolt from his crotch.

"Hahahaha! I am the undercover agent of the Heavenly Demon Sect, 008, everyone calls me Lao Ba! Lu An, Sect Leader Li asked me to give you my greetings!"

As soon as Lu An heard the name "Sect Leader Li," he knew who it was. Who else could it be but the eternally unmarried teacher, Li Nayue?

That damned woman, she still thinks about him to this day!

"Oh no, it's the Annihilation Lightning! The explosive power is almost equivalent to a seventh-level Tribulation Transcending cultivator self-destructing!"

A square-faced man standing nearby, holding a cup of tea, said in a terrified voice.

Thank you for your explanation, but why are you drinking tea now?

The fuse burned very quickly; in the blink of an eye, a dazzling light shone from the Annihilation Lightning.

Lu An closed his eyes and stopped struggling.

The others closed their eyes and silently awaited their death.

How can we play? There's nothing to play!

Okay, this game is definitely over!

After a long while, there was still no movement.

Lao Ba also opened his eyes, his face full of curiosity.

Why didn't it explode?

"Wait a minute, let me see why it hasn't exploded."

Old Eight gave everyone a slightly embarrassed smile, then tapped the Tribulation Lightning.

Then, with a loud bang, the Annihilation Lightning was activated instantly.

Inside was an extinguished... candle.

The entire room fell silent, including Lao Ba's.

"Haha, maybe they took the wrong one. I won't bother you anymore, I'm leaving!"

Before he could leave, the judges suddenly erupted, unleashing a barrage of punches and kicks, and gave him a brutal beating.

"Trying to scare us, huh?! You're a spy from the Heavenly Demon Sect, aren't you?"

"You little rascal, I almost thought I wouldn't be able to leave work on time today."

"Playing double agent, huh? Planning a suicide attack, huh?"

"Fellow Daoists, let me kick it! Please, let me kick it!"

Just as Lu An was watching these people gang up on Uncle Lao Ba, he saw a familiar figure on the second floor.

The person looks familiar, no, extremely familiar, but I can't remember who it is because I only see their profile.

However, the person quickly turned around, and Lu An was able to see who it was.

Soon, the man's lips began to move.

"Junior brother, long time no see!"

Lu An understood those two lip movements at a glance.

At that very moment, Lu An felt a chill run down his spine.

Isn't that Zhao Mengyuan?!

I didn't hear anyone say we were going to make contact, so why is Zhao Mengyuan here?

My kidneys are starting to ache again. Oh no, it's even triggering a subconscious reaction.

"Come find me in the back!"

It was lip reading again. Lu An was a little annoyed that he had figured out how to read lips.

I learned it to read people's expressions back then. After all, those big shots often cut off sound, and if I hadn't learned some lip reading, I probably would have been dead a long time ago.

But just pretend you didn't see it.

So Lu An turned his head to look in the other direction.

I can't see it, ....

But in the end, Lu An still went.

It's not that he's afraid of anyone, but... it's for work.

The leader's sudden appearance here must mean something's up; we can't pretend we don't see him.

Lu An arrived at the back of the Drunken Dream Pavilion. The air was filled with various different fragrances, which made Lu An feel dizzy.

This taste is far too vulgar; it's not in tune with a gentleman like him.

Just as Lu An was about to look for Zhao Mengyuan, Zhao Mengyuan walked out from the side.

"Senior sister, what brings you here? Is something the matter?"

"What, can't I come to see you if there's nothing wrong?"

"Of course, that's possible too."

"Isn't that right?"

Zhao Mengyuan was not at all shy; she immediately took Lu An's arm, her affectionate demeanor evident on her face.

However, Lu An was extremely nervous. As soon as Zhao Mengyuan touched it, he felt a chill.

"Junior brother, I heard you've already joined the Righteous Alliance. You've done a great job with your mission."

"Just lucky, just lucky!"

"I've heard that Yu Wanqing recommended you to get in. Junior brother, you're so lucky! She's the vice leader of the Righteous Path Alliance, and the leader's daughter!" Zhao Mengyuan said slowly.

Lu An said fearfully, "It's just acting, Senior Sister, you're not taking it seriously, are you? I'm not in control of my own destiny right now!"

Zhao Mengyuan smiled slightly: "How could that be? Of course I know that Junior Brother is acting. You have no idea how much I feel for you, Junior Brother!"

Seeing him like this, I don't feel sorry for him at all.

Zhao Mengyuan whispered in Lu An's ear, "I'm so afraid that you've been completely deceived by those hypocritical women. You need to know that only your senior sister and Master are the best for you!"

Lu An listened silently without saying a word.

"Junior Brother Lu, are you in a bad mood? Why aren't you talking?"

"No, senior sister, um, I meant, is there something you need? I need to go back to be a judge." Lu An just wanted to leave; he felt that every minute he spent with Zhao Mengyuan was torture.

"Junior brother, you don't really think you're here to be a judge, do you? You haven't forgotten what your task was, have you?"

Lu An asked hesitantly, "Uh, kill Zhang Kefan?"

Zhao Mengyuan nodded: "That's right. You just happen to be sitting next to him, so you must already have a foolproof plan, right?"

Lu An said quietly, "I'm not sure."

Zhao Mengyuan was taken aback: "Not sure? What do you mean?"

Lu An quickly changed the subject, saying, "Speaking of which, Senior Sister, is that Eighth Brother really from our Heavenly Demon Sect? Why does that Abbess Li from the Heavenly Demon Sect keep trying to kill me?"

"This matter is a bit complicated, junior brother. I can't explain it in a short time. I'll have to tell you the whole story later."

"So, the matter of that Cataclysmic Lightning being switched...?"

“I did it. That nun Li wanted to find a cannon fodder to blow you up, but I didn’t agree to it.”

"Senior sister, you're so good to me!"

"That's right, after all, you're my junior brother, and my man!"

"what!?"

Chapter 132 Oh no, this woman is panicking!

"What I mean is, you are my junior brother, so naturally I have to take good care of you!" Zhao Mengyuan realized that she had accidentally said the wrong thing and quickly tried to make amends.

"Senior sister, I'm very grateful that you want to take good care of me, but now..."

“I know you are living in dire straits right now, having to endure pressure and humiliation every day. It’s not easy to get by in the Enforcement Hall. I know all of this, and I understand.”

Hearing his senior sister's caring words, Lu An felt deeply moved.

However, he dared not say that he was actually very happy at the Yuan Tian Holy Sect. Although working overtime in the Enforcement Hall made him a little unhappy, he received quite a lot of top-grade spirit stones.

So now he's thinking of changing jobs. If all else fails, he'd rather work the legitimate path than be a tool.

Another issue is that he can't cultivate with top-grade spirit stones right now. After all, the spiritual energy concentration in these spirit stones is too pure. If he were to forcibly absorb it, he would inevitably burst.

It's not that his spirit stones are bad, it's that his strength is just too weak.

It's basically like playing a game where someone gives you a bunch of high-level equipment and upgrade materials, but you can't wear or use any of them, and you still have to hang around with the pros all day trying to show off.

I'm exhausted. When will this constant pretentiousness end?

"If you really can't stand it here, you can come back to your senior sister's place. Your senior sister will find a way to let you come back."

Is this kind of statement believable? Absolutely not.

Not to mention that he has become a hated figure in the demonic path, he has also become an inner sect elder and an elder of the law enforcement hall in the Yuan Tian Holy Sect, and has even made a name for himself in the Righteous Path Alliance.

"If you don't believe in your senior sister, you must believe in your master. Your master will definitely be able to bring you back."

Lu An remained silent, thinking that this guy was even more unreliable.

He's the one who put me undercover; I didn't even have a choice. I almost made him lose all his children at the Yuan Tian Sheng Zong because of Xia Qinglan.

If it weren't for the grace of being given a second chance, I would have killed my master sooner or later.

However, we should wait and see how our master behaves before deciding whether to put killing our master on the agenda.

"Junior brother, why aren't you saying anything?"

Zhao Mengyuan's expression was clearly not good, because Lu An hadn't paid much attention to her, but he seemed to be thinking about something, so she didn't dare to interrupt him.

"Senior sister, I am very grateful for your kindness, but my mission is not yet complete. Returning to the sect now is not the right time." Lu An began to make up a story: "If I go back like this, I will most likely become an enemy of both sides. The righteous path will hunt me down, and the demonic path will not trust me. It will be difficult for you and Master to protect me."

After listening to Lu An's words, Zhao Mengyuan thought for a moment and said, "Junior Brother's words do make sense, but we can disguise ourselves and change our names so that Master can take us as a disciple again, or recruit Junior Brother as an elder."

Lu An interrupted, "If that's the case, then what's the point of my life?"

"I, Lu Anxing, will not change my name or surname. If I am going back, I will go back openly and honestly! It will not be too late for me to return to the Heavenly Demon Sect after I have overthrown the Righteous Alliance and returned in glory!"
