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

But Yu Wanqing's mother, how come she looks so charming!?

This kind of temperament and charm doesn't quite match Yu Wanqing's pure and innocent temperament.

As mother and daughter, their temperaments are quite different.

However, as a married couple, the contrast is quite significant.

This old Taoist priest who looks like a beggar is not only the leader of the Righteous Path Alliance, but he also has such an elegant wife.

That's so enviable!

As soon as the woman sat down, she slowly said, "He cannot join the Righteous Path Alliance!"

Yu Wanqing asked in confusion, "Why is that, Mother?!"

The woman pointed at Lu An and said, "Because I suspect he's an undercover agent!!!"

Oh no, we've been found out!?

Chapter 119: Exposed! Completely exposed!

Cold sweat slowly trickled down everyone's foreheads, and the silence was so profound that you could hear a pin drop. A tense atmosphere permeated the entire Zhengdao Alliance hall.

You can't just say things like there's an undercover agent!

You absolutely mustn't say anything carelessly! It's something that could undermine unity!

Everyone was nervous and surprised, including Lu An.

Have I been discovered?! How could that be?! Wasn't it only Master and Senior Sister who knew I was an undercover agent?

Could it be that an undercover agent knows I'm an undercover agent?! And even knows that my failed assassination attempt and subsequent defection were just a show?!

But how did he get exposed?! What did he do wrong?! What happened?!

Countless possibilities played out in Lu An's mind, causing cold sweat to pour down his forehead and his brain to become extremely tense, like an overheated computer with its CPU running wildly and heating up.

However, Lu An quickly calmed down.

Don't panic, she may not have any evidence!

“Fellow Daoist, if you accuse me of being an undercover agent, you need evidence!” Lu An took a deep breath and said slowly, “You can’t just make things up without proof! If I’m not, you’ll be held responsible!”

Then everyone looked at the woman again, and Yu Wanqing and the alliance leader were also dumbfounded.

What happened? Why are they immediately accusing Lu An of being an undercover agent?

"Don't be so hasty, you're not the only undercover agent!" The woman said in a tone that was both suspenseful and boastful, as if she had discovered some truth. "Are you nervous? You're definitely hiding something!"

Lu An didn't want to talk anymore.

This woman seems to have some confidence. Judging from her appearance, could she have other undercover agents under her control?

Could it be that there are other Heavenly Demon Sect spies within the Righteous Path Alliance who exposed his secrets?

But how could that be?! Shouldn't his undercover work be flawless? How much sacrifice did he make?

"What should we do? Have we really been discovered?"

However, considering his seemingly unreliable master, it seemed somewhat understandable that he had been exposed.

Damn idiot, you're ruining your apprentice's life.

Looking at the silent Lu An, the woman shouted again, "Look, he's not saying anything! That means he's admitting it! He's the undercover agent!"

Lu An rolled his eyes.

Whether he speaks or not, he's still an undercover agent. I'm truly impressed.

There's no way to defend myself now.

So Lu An stood up and decided to respond with silence.

He stared at the woman, and then an immense pressure was transmitted to her.

Even if it's your mother-in-law, you absolutely cannot give in!

Men! They must have status! Otherwise, they will repeat the mistakes of their master and senior sister!

Why are you staring at me?! Are you feeling guilty?!

The woman stood up, put her hands on her hips, pointed at Lu An, and asked.

Lu An didn't speak, he just watched her silently.

Too much talk leads to mistakes; it's better to remain silent.

"Don't think I'll be scared just because you're glaring at me! You damned undercover agent!" the woman said, shaking her head as if she was certain that Lu An was an undercover agent.

"Wife, what evidence do you have that Lu An is an undercover agent?"

The alliance leader was about to speak up for Lu An, and his tone sounded extremely firm, which made Lu An admire him.

Is this what family status is?

But the next moment, as the woman glared at him, his tone immediately softened: "I was just asking, because everything needs evidence. Of course, I'm not questioning my wife!"

Lu An immediately became disdainful.

I thought he was really tough, but it turns out this is all there is to it.

He's not like a man at all.

"Of course I have evidence! My reasoning, my thinking—that's the evidence!" The woman slammed her hand on the table and pointed at the people around her, saying, "And everyone here, you can't escape the suspicion of being undercover agents either! You could all be undercover agents!"

Now it was everyone else's turn to be confused. Why were they getting involved? What business was it of theirs?

"Ling Hongyue, don't make false accusations! We are wholeheartedly devoted to the Righteous Alliance, how could we possibly be undercover agents!?"

"Ling Hongyue, don't think that just because you have a husband and daughter you can talk nonsense! If you speak without evidence, we won't be polite!"

The two reacted very strongly, after all, these people from prestigious and upright families care a lot about their reputation.

"Hmph, truth is only held by a minority. Your agitated rebuttal must mean I've hit the nail on the head!" Ling Hongyue remained calm, instead speaking slowly and deliberately: "You're in a hurry! That's why you're so hasty in rebutting me! Am I right?!"

For some reason, Lu An suddenly felt that everything this woman said seemed to make a lot of sense.

Looking at it, it seems that's really the case.

"You're slandering us with baseless accusations, and you even say we're getting impatient?" One of them laughed angrily, "Hahaha, Alliance Leader, do you want the Righteous Path Alliance to fall apart? Don't think you're so great just because you're the Alliance Leader. Our reputation is not to be defamed!"

"Exactly! Everything needs to be backed by evidence! You can't just make things up! You say we're undercover agents, but where's the evidence? Just your word?"

"Evidence? The evidence is right here!" Ling Hongyue pointed to the coconuts on the table and said, "Why aren't you drinking the coconut juice!?"

It was only then that Lu An realized there was a row of coconuts on the table, which they hadn't touched.

Holy crap, is this guy mentally ill? Using the same excuse again?

Last time on the airship, it seems there was a similar reason, and that's how they caught the undercover agent.

Could this be any more outrageous? Is the Righteous Alliance really not a mental hospital?

The others were speechless, unsure of what to say.

The brain is sick!

Suddenly, Ling Hongyue turned around, pointed at Lu An and said, "Lu An, I know you. You are Li Podao's true disciple. It was said that you were going to assassinate Li Podao, but it was actually a scheme you and Li Podao set up!"

Holy crap, this doesn't seem like a mental illness; he's starting to make sense and have evidence!

Has it really been exposed?

Lu An immediately tensed up, but still tried to remain calm as he looked at the woman without saying a word.

The others watched this scene in silence.

"You can fool others, but you can't fool me, Ling Hongyue! You said you were assassinating Li Podao, but actually you and Li Podao staged a whole thing, pretending to assassinate him, then deliberately failing to get the Heavenly Demon Sect to hunt you down, all to gain the trust of the righteous path, right!?"

Lu An was shocked. This woman had guessed everything correctly. Who had leaked their plan?!

What a joke!? How did they find out? Did Master let it slip while drunk!?

Yu Wanqing finally couldn't help but interject, "Mother, stop talking nonsense. Who would believe what you're saying?"

The alliance leader stood aside, not daring to speak.

The situation is getting out of control. This woman has probably gone mad. For your own safety, it's best not to try to break up the fight.

"Daughter, don't stop me! I know everything! Today I'm going to expose Lu An's true colors as an undercover agent!" Ling Hongyue was like a madwoman, stubbornly insisting, "Actually, everything you did was an act for the Righteous Alliance! You approached my daughter to use her to join the Righteous Alliance and then overthrow it, right?!"

Lu An continued to remain silent, but his palms were already sweating.

How... how could this be so accurate? It's almost as if someone was monitoring him from the sidelines.

"You not only want to take my daughter, but you also want to take the opportunity to kill the alliance leader, then take me down too, and finally become the leader of the Righteous Path Alliance, right!?"

Now not only Lu An panicked, but everyone else panicked too. How could this woman dare to say such things?

So you're saying things that will shock you, huh? Even if he did the things mentioned earlier, he hasn't done the things that follow yet, so how dare he say such things?

So the alliance leader didn't care about anything else and quickly covered Ling Hongyue's mouth, then said to Yu Wanqing, "Take your mother away quickly, she's talking nonsense! Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

"I'm not talking nonsense! Poor me, at this age I'm still being remembered, and my family is even siding with outsiders, it's really pitiful..." Ling Hongyue suddenly became sentimental, but the alliance leader softened and let her go.

However, Yu Wanqing did not let go of her, but instead advised from the side, "Mother, let's calm down. You just came out of seclusion, don't talk nonsense!"

Boom!

Just as the scene was in chaos, the door suddenly opened, and a group of people dressed in blue filed in.

Seeing this, Ling Hongyue suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahaha! Someone's here to arrest you! Lu An, you're finished! You're finished!"

Lu An panicked when he saw this.

Could it be... that we've really been set up?

That's too fast! He hasn't even done anything yet, and he's already exposed?

That's it, I guess I can't stay undercover any longer.

It's fate! This is fate!

So Lu An closed his eyes, sat down, and decided to let these people do as they pleased.

"Who let her out without giving her her medication?! Didn't they know she had a mental illness?"

Volume 3, this is the Righteous Alliance?!

Chapter 120 Who would believe a mental illness story?

After the men in blue filed in, each carrying talismans and ropes, and others carrying a stretcher, they quickly tied up Ling Hongyue. Their efficiency was quite remarkable.

The people around were completely bewildered, not knowing what had happened.

"What are you doing? Let go of my mother!"

Hua Tianyou walked in and, seeing Yu Wanqing's bewildered expression and her attempt to stop him, quickly stopped them.

"Alliance Leader, Vice Alliance Leader, please don't interfere. Her illness is very serious; it's terminal." Hua Tianyou stopped Yu Wanqing and said, "I need to take her back for treatment now. If she can't be cured, then Madam will be in danger!"

Yu Wanqing was also anxious: "What's wrong with her?! She's perfectly fine, why are you saying she's sick?!"

Ling Hongyue struggled, bound by the crowd, and cried out, "I'm not sick! Daughter, don't listen to him! Husband! Save me! I'm not sick, they're all undercover agents! They're all undercover agents! They want to harm me!"

"Look at her, she sees everyone as an undercover agent. What is this if not a disease?" Hua Tianyou said helplessly. "She's been like this ever since she came out of seclusion last time. Her cultivation is still there, but she can't perform incantations or fight anymore. She sees everyone as an undercover agent. She's simply gone mad!"

Yu Wanqing asked, somewhat puzzled, "Since Mother has come out of seclusion, why didn't you inform me?"

Hua Tianyou glanced at Yu Wanqing and said helplessly, "You were on a mission in Yunyao Valley at the time, and I didn't have time to notify you. I thought the problem wasn't serious, so I planned to control it and treat it first. Who would have thought..."

Even Lu An understood after hearing this.

The illness wasn't serious, and we thought we'd get it treated first, but it turned out to be much more serious than they thought.

Yu Wanqing waved her hand to indicate that she understood. It was indeed her fault. Even if she had known at the time, she hadn't had time to deal with it.

However, the alliance leader was somewhat unconvinced and questioned, "If you can't contact my daughter, you can at least contact me! She's my wife! I have an obligation to know! And a responsibility to take care of her!"

Yu Wanqing glanced at the alliance leader but remained silent, her eyes conveying a somewhat meaningful look.

However, Hua Tianyou cast a disdainful look at the alliance leader: "Alliance leader, you get slightly drunk every three days and heavily drunk every five days. We can't find you, and we can't contact you even with the communication stone. How am I supposed to notify you?"
