Miss Demon Lord will never surrender to the Saint

"That guy from the Fire Lotus Sect is really bold. He actually dared to hurt you like this." While applying ointment to Ye Xin, Nan Ci sighed from the bottom of his heart.

Half of this sentence was her true thought, and the other half was Qian Lin's request.

Qian Lin asked her to find an opportunity to sow discord between this sword cultivator and the Fire Lotus Sect, but Nan Ci felt that there was no need for her to sow discord between the two.

"I won't let these scums go! They colluded with the devil and slandered others. Their crime is unforgivable!" Ye Xin clutched the quilt tightly and said viciously while gritting his teeth.

This was the first time she had seen a sect like the Fire Lotus Sect that did something bad and then fought back. When sects from other places encountered cultivators from the Sword Sect, which one of them did not treat them with respect?

When the sword cultivators discovered something unusual in their sect, who would not immediately cooperate with the sword cultivators to investigate the unusual things?

The Fire Lotus Sect was different! They actually wanted to protect that evil spy!

He even fought with me for this and even wanted to keep me there forever!

Think about the rumors they spread before, it turns out that they were just the thief crying "stop thief"!

Call someone to come over and destroy the Fire Lotus Sect immediately! Ye Xin made up his mind.

"Ms. Ye, don't get excited. Take care of your body first."

"Don't worry, I won't be impulsive. Hey, why does the effect of this ointment feel so good?" Ye Xin nodded, and then suddenly made a surprised sound.

As the burning pain subsided, a cool and comfortable feeling appeared on her back. She felt that her body's vitality was being fully stimulated, and together with the medicinal power in the ointment, it was quickly repairing the wounds on her body.

There is something about this ointment.

Anyone who can make this kind of ointment must be a very good doctor, right?

"Miss Nan Ci, where did you get this ointment?" Ye Xin turned his head to look at Nan Ci and asked curiously.

"He is a doctor in the city, and I am quite familiar with him."

"It must have cost a lot of spirit stones to make such an effective ointment. I will return it to you later."

"No, no, this ointment is free. After hearing the whole story, the doctor didn't charge me any spirit stones. She said...she said how could she charge money for healing a righteous person like you, Miss Ye?" Nan Ci waved her hands repeatedly. She really didn't spend any spirit stones. This ointment was given to her by Qian Lin.

But it would be inappropriate to directly say that it was a gift from someone else, so she quickly thought of a way to tell Ye Xin that the doctor was moved by Ye Xin's noble behavior and gave it to her for free.

Ye Xin did not doubt Nan Ci's words. She had heard from her senior brothers and sisters that there were many good people like this in the world.

This doctor must be such a good person. If I have the chance, I must go and meet her and thank her in person!

……

"Ah!"

After sneezing for no apparent reason, Qian Lin touched his nose in confusion, and his expression became strange.

Why do I suddenly want to sneeze for no reason? My body has been in a stable state recently, so this kind of situation won't happen.

Is it possible that someone is talking about me behind my back?

Hmm... I guess it was Ye Qiuhan who was talking about me behind my back. Apart from her, no one else would do such a thing.

Taking his thoughts away from these meaningless things, Qian Lin continued to flip through the file in his hand. This was a summary of the intelligence on the Nan family that the undercover agent had rushed out.

It's very messy and I can't see anything important in it.

Among them, there is very little information related to the accident that happened more than ten years ago, and it seems that the Nan family has never thought about investigating the accident in recent years.

"Something is not right. The head of the family and a master were ambushed at the same time, but the Nan family didn't react at all?" There has been no investigation either openly or secretly. This is very abnormal, isn't it?

Apart from Nan Xiao and Nan Ci, the two girls who have been investigating the murder case over the years, it seems that no one in the Nan family really cares about the murder case.

Nan Xiao and Nan Ci's investigation was not smooth either. The Nan family gave them almost no support and even kept asking them to come back and stop investigating the matter.

I always feel that something is not right. Would it be a bad thing for the Nan family to investigate this matter?

He reached out and picked up the bell at hand and shook it gently. As the crisp sound of the bell rang, the undercover agent immediately appeared outside the room.

"Miss Qian."

"Have you figured out who the traitor in the Nan family is?"

"...Not yet." The undercover agent was silent for a while, then lowered his head in shame.

He has already sent people to closely monitor the Nan family, but he can't just let people sneak into the Nan family to investigate, right?

That would make the target too big and too easy to be discovered.

"Is that so... You should have said it earlier. I have a lot of things here that can solve this problem." After hearing the undercover's dilemma, Qian Lin covered his forehead with his hands.

This was not a problem for her. Wasn't the Ice Butterfly she had learned from Venerable Blood Butterfly to create something very good at this kind of thing?

After rummaging in the storage bag, Qian Lin took out a large wooden box that was half a meter square. Qian Lin opened it and saw thirty beautifully crafted blue butterflies neatly arranged inside.

The moment the undercover agent saw the butterfly, he immediately remembered what these things were. He originally thought that this was Qian Lin’s spiritual skill, but he didn’t expect that this was actually the real thing!

"This is the one you used before..."

"That's right. They are actually miniaturized puppets that can absorb spiritual energy in the air to maintain their own form and complete some simple tasks, such as sneaking into certain places for close surveillance." Qian Lin took out an ice butterfly and handed it to the undercover agent.

The undercover took the ice butterfly with both hands and observed the butterfly in his hands carefully with his eyes wide open.

It is crystal clear and beautiful like a work of art. It feels cool when you hold it in your hand, but not as cold as ice.

"How do I use this butterfly?" The undercover agent looked at the ice butterfly over and over again, but couldn't find a way to use it.

He tried to use his spiritual sense to directly control the butterfly, but it was useless.

"Although it is possible to control it directly with spiritual consciousness, it will consume a lot of energy, and it is difficult to control it perfectly without special training." Qian Lin smiled and took out another item from the wooden box, a translucent blue board, "Use this to control it, it's very simple."

This kind of ice butterfly was created for use by low-level cultivators. Qian Lin made a few butterflies as gifts for Xiao Ziyu a few years ago.

Taking the board that had been activated by Qian Lin's spiritual sense, and looking at the various buttons and words that appeared on the board, the undercover agent somewhat unfamiliarly controlled the ice butterfly under Qian Lin's guidance to start flying.

This is very simple, so simple that a teenager with no training can completely control it in a short period of time.

"This is just like..." The undercover wanted to say that this was just like a miracle. How smart must the Miss Qian in front of him be to be able to turn something like this into reality.

But Qian Lin obviously misunderstood what he meant. She thought that the undercover agent had seen the connection between this butterfly and a certain unlucky Blood Sea Sect master.

Fortunately, Qian Lin had never had any intention of hiding this. Since the undercover agent had seen through it, she might as well admit it generously.

Stealing other people's spiritual skills and appearance is not a shameful thing.

"Yes, the original form is the blood butterfly of the Blood Butterfly Venerable, but I made some slight improvements so that the controller does not have to tear his own consciousness apart like the blood butterfly did and turn into a complete lunatic."

"Ah...ah?!" If Qian Lin hadn't said it, the undercover agent really wouldn't have thought of this. He looked at the extremely well-behaved blue butterfly floating in the air as if waking up from a dream, and his expression suddenly became wonderful.

No wonder I always have a sense of déjà vu, it turns out it’s because of this reason!

In the incident at Honghu Academy that year, the undercover agent was half a party to the incident and had seen the blood butterfly of the Blood Butterfly Venerable, but he had never connected Qian Lin's ice butterfly with the blood butterfly.

Now looking at it, these two butterflies seem to be exactly the same except for their colors.

"But the essence is completely different. Miss Qian, your butterfly is more... approachable than Lord Blood Butterfly's butterfly?" The undercover agent thought for a long time before picking out a decent adjective from his vocabulary.

Just as Qian Lin said, the blood butterfly of the Blood Butterfly Venerable was not something that ordinary people could use, but the ice butterfly that he was using now was really quite popular.

"The price is that it has almost no combat capability and can only play a small role in reconnaissance." Qian Lin added.

This is more than just a little bit of effect. Mr. Undercover's eyes have lit up. With the help of this ice butterfly, he is fully confident that he can find out the undercover hidden inside the Nan family!

Even if he is given enough ice butterflies, he can expose the underwear of any sect in the world.

"That's enough. With the help of this ice butterfly, I believe our investigation will be greatly accelerated!"

"I don't want to hear you bragging. I've given you the things. How much you can accomplish depends on your own efforts. Oh, and don't forget about the Fire Lotus Sect. Don't lose sight of one thing while focusing on the other."

"Understood! I will definitely not let you down, Miss Qian!"

293. Undercurrent

With Qian Lin's technical support, Mr. Undercover immediately set up a surveillance system covering the entire Nan family. Now, except for a few places, the entire Nan family has been covered by Mr. Undercover's eyes.

Those few places were basically important places such as the master's study and bedroom. Mr. Undercover didn't know whether Qian Lin's ice butterflies could sneak in, but to be on the safe side, he still thought it would be better to let these butterflies watch there from a distance.

The undercover agent did not arrange any butterflies to monitor the place where the sword cultivator was recuperating. He was worried that the sword cultivator's keen perception would discover the ice butterflies.

Besides, the traitor of the Liangnan family would not dare to discuss bad things with the people of the Fire Lotus Sect in front of a sword cultivator who was recuperating from his injuries.

As for the Fire Lotus Sect, Mr. Undercover's arrangements were much simpler. The sect alliance was a loose group of sand, so he only needed to assign a few Ice Butterflies to monitor it. The rest could be handed over to the group of bribed Southern Territory monks.

As long as there are enough elixirs and spices, these people don't mind selling their old employer for a good price.

The undercover agent now feels like a spider that has already woven a web, quietly waiting for its prey to run into the net he has laid.

This big net has completely covered the entire Nan family and the surrounding areas. Any slight movement will not escape its eyes!

"Keep an eye on them, don't miss any details, do you understand?" The undercover agent, who was as obedient as a little rabbit in front of Qian Lin, said sternly to his subordinates. Now he was like a tiger, with a fierce light in his eyes, ready to devour anyone.

"Understood!" The low-level cultivator from Hehuan Valley who was sitting in the room answered loudly.

In front of each monk is the image seen by an ice butterfly. Their task is to stare at these images without stopping and then extract valuable clues from them.

It's boring, but actually quite entertaining.

After the undercover agent left, these monks began to share with their companions what they had seen, such as a young couple being affectionate in the woods, and a member of the Nan family spitting everywhere, which was a lack of manners.

The entire Nan family has been included in the surveillance scope, and this statement is indeed correct.

After observing for several days in a row, these monks did not find any valuable clues. They didn't know whether they were too careless or the undercover agent really did not take any action.

While the monitoring team here was in a stalemate, Qian Lin had already followed Venerable Huanyue to a hill outside the city.

"From here we can overlook the entire city, and we can respond promptly to any incidents in the city. What do you think of using this as a temporary base?"

"Not bad, but Sister Yue Huai, are you planning to build a base on the mountain? Wouldn't that make us a little too conspicuous?" Qian Lin had no objection to this. It was indeed a bit excessive for so many demon monks to gather in the city.

If this is caught by the righteous, it will basically be a total destruction.

Secretly doing things in the secret base outside the city is the usual style of the evildoers.

"Of course not. The stronghold is built inside the mountain. At most, there is a lookout tower here." Venerable Huanyue shook his head. The demon strongholds are basically built inside the mountain or underground. The main feature is concealment.

This was the Xuanyin Sect's stronghold during the Ascension Conference, built inside a mountain. If Venerable Huanyue hadn't been unhappy with the Xuanyin Sect and revealed the location of the stronghold, the righteous would probably never have been able to find the stronghold even if they died searching for it.

"Then I have no objection. This place is really nice."

"Okay, I'll have someone come over right away to fix up the base. It should be ready in a day or two."

……

Northern border, Xuanyin Sect.

The middle-aged man in a black robe looked at the blood-stained tortoise shell in his hand and his expression changed slightly.

This was the first time he had encountered such a clear divination result.

"The Nan Family in the Southern Territory...what kind of force is this?" He waved his long sleeves and turned into a black wind and left the dark room.

Several Xuanyin Sect monks who were waiting outside the dark room immediately stepped forward and saluted the man respectfully, "Sect Master!"

"Master, why did the divination go so quickly this time?"

"Not only is it fast, the result is also extremely clear and a little weird." The leader of Xuanyin Sect looked at the tortoise shell in his hand with complicated eyes. A bad premonition grew in his heart.

Normally, each divination session would take him a very long time, and the results he would get were almost always vague and required him to understand them himself.

However, this time the divination result was so clear that it directly told him a name.

He predicted the future of Xuanyin Sect, and the result was Nan Clan of the Southern Territory...

"Call all the elders, I have something important to tell them!"

……

Zhongzhou, Tiandao Sect.

"There is demonic energy lingering in the southern border. It should not be a mistake in divination." An old man with white hair and beard stood in the magnificent hall and said to the illusory figure at the top.

The illusory figure was handsome, and appeared to be only thirty years old. He was wearing a platinum robe, and his light-colored eyes were full of contemplation.

"...To be honest, I don't really believe in this divination result." After a long silence, the illusory figure spoke.

"Master, this is the most accurate divination result. Even the Xuanyin evil sect can't get a more accurate divination result than mine." When the old man heard the words of the illusory figure, he immediately retorted impatiently.

Naturally, the art of divination cannot be mastered only by the Xuanyin Demon Sect. In fact, every sect has cultivators who are proficient in the art of divination.

And within the Tiandao Sect, which is known as the leading sect of the righteous path, there are naturally such cultivators.

The old man's cultivation is extremely high. He has now experienced three thunder tribulations. He was also a well-known figure a hundred years ago, but he has faded out of people's sight in the past hundred years and has been pursuing a higher realm.
