The spies planted by various forces had almost all been cleared out in the previous purge, and now they have no chance to plant new spies.

Lu Buwei also knew that it was not Luowang’s fault, but that this matter was indeed difficult to handle.

He wanted to know why Taoism sent people to protect Ying Zheng, but this matter must be a secret among secrets in Taoism.

With a slight sigh, he waved his hand and let the Luowang commander go.

Now that Ying Zheng has grown up, he is not as easy to control as before. First, there was a new figure, Gai Nie from the strategist school, and now he has somehow won over the two elders of the Taoist school.

This trend was not a good thing for Lu Buwei, who controlled the Qin government and had great power.

But as someone who watched Ying Zheng grow up, he felt a little complicated.

Ying Zheng called himself Zhongfu. Regardless of whether he still thinks so now, at that time, he definitely regarded himself as a father-like figure.

And he never thought that he would be in the position he is in today.

Before Ying Yiren died, he still trusted him very much and handed over the State of Qin to him to help manage, and asked him to support Ying Zheng a lot when he was young.

Unfortunately, cracks are now beginning to appear in the relationship between the two sides due to power.

Therefore, he must make decisions early on some things.

For example, if he cut off his relationship with Ying Zheng's biological mother, Zhao Ji, if Ying Zheng found out that he had been having an affair with her in private, Ying Zheng would definitely feel unhappy and might even hate him for it.

He also didn't want to be on the opposite side of Ying Zheng. After all, for so many years, he had been working hard to make Qin stronger, and he and Ying Zheng should have a common goal.

However, Zhao Ji's matter was only one aspect. On the other hand, he also planned to visit the Taoists to test their attitude.

If using such despicable means as Luowang to investigate doesn't work, then he will use fair and aboveboard means.

Not only that, he can also take this opportunity to try to alienate the relationship between Ying Zheng and Taoism. He also doesn't want to see Taoism really support Ying Zheng.

If the forces under Ying Zheng's own command are numerous and strong enough, then Ying Zheng's dependence on himself will inevitably decrease.

Wouldn't his position as prime minister become dispensable then?

This is something he will never allow.

After having tasted the power, how could he be willing to give it up?

So Lu Buwei immediately made a decision and asked someone to send a letter of greeting to the Taoist priest, preparing to visit the Taoist priest in a few days.

Before that, he also had to prepare a gift for Bai Yuan.

As for why it was given to Bai Yuan, it was naturally because it seemed that only Bai Yuan and Luo Wang had had contact in the Taoist Tian Sect.

And it was still a very unpleasant contact.

He planned to use this incident as a breakthrough point to contact the Taoist high-level officials, and then find out the information he wanted to know.

Not long after, the Taoist received two invitations to pay a visit to the mountain.

One letter came from Xianyang, written by Lu Buwei.

The other letter of greeting was from the Yin-Yang School.

The disciple in charge of this area had originally planned to deal with the two letters of greeting just like before, especially the one from the Yin-Yang family.

You have to know that the relationship between Taoism and Yin-Yang School is not good, and some disciples dislike those people from Yin-Yang School.

But they don't have the final say on such matters.

In the end, these two heavyweight visiting cards were delivered to Chisongzi.

Looking at these two greeting cards, Chisongzi couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

It is easy to understand the purpose of Lu Buwei's visit to the mountain. It was probably because of some matters concerning Ying Zheng, so he wanted to find out what was going on.

But he couldn't figure out the Yin-Yang family's purpose.

The Yin-Yang School pursues the ultimate limit of heaven and man, and has long parted ways with the Taoist School. Normally, the two sides have almost no contact with each other.

It was precisely because Chisongzi knew these people from the Yin-Yang School so well that he became even more confused.

"Could it be that... the Yin-Yang family is coming for Junior Brother Bai Yuan?"

Apart from this, Chisongzi really couldn't think of any other reasonable reason.

After all, the Yin-Yang School originated from Taoism, and there are many people there who are good at skills such as astrology and divination. It is normal for them to find Bai Yuan’s peculiarity.

Chapter 124 Those eyes hold secrets

When Chisongzi came to Bai Yuan with two visiting cards, he was practicing sword with Ningyan and the others.

Xue'er was sitting leisurely with her eyes half closed, her tail swaying slowly behind her butt. On her left and right, two unlucky birds that came from nowhere were fanning her with their wings.

Chi Songzi was stunned when he saw this scene.

He felt that the cat seemed to be living a more comfortable life than he was!

He had long discovered that the cat Bai Yuan raised was somewhat unusual, and now it seems that his guess was right.

He knew that Bai Yuan would not keep such a pet for no reason.

However, thinking about the purpose of his coming here, Chi Songzi had no time to pay attention to Bai Yuan's cat.

Seeing Chisongzi coming, Bai Yuan and the other two stopped what they were doing and put away their swords. Then Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue went to prepare tea for the two of them, leaving the space to them.

Bai Yuan led Chi Songzi to sit in the yard, and then asked:

"Brother, why are you here?"

"Here, take a look!"

Chisongzi handed two visiting cards to Bai Yuan.

Bai Yuan took it and just glanced at it, then he understood Chi Songzi's intention.

"Brother, you don't think they are all coming for me, do you?"

"Lü Buwei probably just wanted to test our Taoist attitude towards Ying Zheng. Giving you an apology is just an excuse for him."

"But it's hard to say about the Yin-Yang family. We haven't had any dealings with them for many years, but this time they sent a figure like the Moon God and a Great Sima. I have to think twice about this kind of action."

Chisongzi stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes, seeming a little dissatisfied.

He could figure it out with his butt that old Bidden from Donghuang Taiyi even sent the Moon Goddess over, so he definitely had no good intentions.

Bai Yuan laughed a little.

"What do you mean, senior brother?"

"No matter what the Yin-Yang family is thinking, is our Tianzong really afraid of them? I am just here to inform you in advance so that you can be prepared and react accordingly!"

Chisongzi warned Bai Yuan and then left without staying long, even without drinking tea.

When Ningyan and the other person came out with tea, the Chisongzi people had already left. The two felt a little strange.

"Why did he leave?"

"Brother, I just came to deliver a message to you. Once the message is delivered, you will leave naturally."

Bai Yuan raised the visiting card in his hand.

Ningyan took the post and looked at it, her eyes trembling slightly.

"Lü Buwei..."

She didn't expect that the current main controller of Luowang would come to visit the Taoist school.

As a top-notch killer from Luowang, she couldn't help but think of her previous career as a killer when she saw the name.

But all these are in the past. Now she has completely broken away from it and is no longer Luowang's killer. Even if she and Lu Buwei were face to face, she could guarantee that the other party would not recognize her.

Then Ningyan saw another visiting card, which turned out to be from the Yin-Yang School.

She didn't have a good impression of this Yin-Yang family.

When mentioning Yin-Yang School, Ning Yan and the others would think of that night in Sanghai, and Dongjun of Yin-Yang School, who had an elegant temperament and impeccable appearance.

However, the two did not know much about the Moon Goddess and the Great Sima. Even Ning Yan had only heard of these people from the Yin-Yang Family when she was a killer in Luowang.

"The Moon God and the Great God of Destiny are both women?"

Bai Yuan nodded after hearing this.

"That's right. The Moon Goddess is second only to Donghuang Taiyi and Dongjun in the Yin-Yang family, and the Great Siming is the elder of the Fire Department of the Yin-Yang family. Both of them are women, and their strength should not be underestimated."

Let’s not talk about the Moon Goddess for now, she doesn’t have many achievements worth mentioning, but the strength of the Great God of Destiny is indeed a bit outrageous.

The Great Sima Ming, who had learned the art of disguise and the Six Souls Curse, even had the ability to kill the leader of the Mohist school. According to the original trajectory, the unlucky Yan Dan would have been killed by her in the end.

It can only be said that in terms of Yin people, the Yin-Yang School has really studied it to the extreme.

However, Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue’s focus is not on their strength.

"Are they coming for you?"

Both of them had extremely accurate intuition and grasped the key point immediately.

Bai Yuan nodded helplessly.

"Probably! Donghuang Taiyi might want them to come and find out some information, but we can only know what it is after they come."

Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue looked at each other after hearing this.

"When will they come?"

"tomorrow."

"Tomorrow..." Ning Yan showed a strange smile, "Aren't you still busy forging swords? If they come tomorrow and want to get close to you, leave it to Hua Xue and me to deal with it!"

After hearing this, Bai Yuan understood what they were thinking.

"That's fine, but they're not easy to deal with. If you run into any problems, you still have to inform me in time."

He didn't want to keep Ning Yan and Jimo Hua Xue as vases. One of them was a first-class killer, and the other was a future swordsman. He couldn't let them be ruined by him.

Both of them should have the ability to stand on their own.

Besides, he was also very clear about the reason why the two of them took the initiative to serve as the two Moon Goddesses for him.

Hearing Bai Yuan agree, Ning Yan and Jimo Hua Xue both smiled with satisfaction.

On the one hand, they did this to help Bai Yuan block these people and things so that he could concentrate on forging swords and so on. On the other hand, they did not want the people from the Yin-Yang family to come into contact with Bai Yuan.

After all, they have already seen how outrageous Bai Yuan's luck with women is.

The next day, Bai Yuan went to the sword-making workshop to forge swords as usual in the morning, as if he didn't know that the Moon Goddess would come to visit him today.

When Chisongzi learned about this, he didn't say anything.

Soon, the disciples came to report that the Moon God and the Great God of Life had arrived in front of Taiyi Palace.

Chisongzi went out with several elders to greet them.

"Meet Master Chisongzi!"

When the Moon Goddess saw Chisongzi, she behaved politely.

Chi Songzi only took one look at the Moon Goddess and felt that this woman was very dangerous.

Especially the other person's eyes covered by the veil. Even if he couldn't see them, he could feel how unique those eyes were, as if they could see through people's hearts.

Women of the Yin-Yang School always like to cover their faces with scarves. Many people think that this is just a pretense of mystery.

But Chisongzi and others are not so superficial.

The Yin-Yang School originated from Taoism, so they know more about some of the situations in the Yin-Yang School than the outside world.

If they just cover their faces, most of them are just being mysterious.

But people like the Moon Goddess did not cover her face, but instead used a veil to block her eyes from being seen. It was obvious that these eyes could not be shown to others easily, and there must be some secret hidden in them.

However, Chisongzi had no interest in the secrets of the Moon Goddess.

He nodded slightly and led the Moon Goddess and the Great God of Life into the Taiyi Palace.

Arriving at the reception hall, Chisongzi waited until they were seated before he began to speak:

"It has been a long time since the Yin-Yang School has sent anyone to the Taoist School. I wonder why the Eastern Emperor sent you here this time?"
