Chapter 572: Rebellion
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio, Atlas StudiosEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio, Atlas Studios
“We’re thinking for the sect. Our sect is short of time now. As long as these sects give us a chance to catch our breath and the sect has two more Heaven Enlightenment Realm experts, our survival space will be large. In the future, when an Immortal Realm expert appears in the sect, we can take back the
Heaven Burying Coffin.”
“Easy for you to say!”
“But what we lack now is time to grow,” the Jinyi Elder said.
The black-robed old man glanced at the sect master, then shook his head.
The Jinyi elder didn’t look like a spy.
For a moment, he couldn’t tell which of these elders was a spy, or which ones were spies.
But Cai Zhuoxing was killed in front of everyone. Other than the elders, no one could do it.
If this spy was not dealt with, the Ascension Sect would have no secrets. Even the sect-protecting formation would no longer be safe.
It was critical!
‘The Feather Clan was in a critical moment.
After the meeting, the three of them gathered together.
“We can’t delay this matter.”
“But now, we really can’t tell who the spy is. Even if we suspect that there is no solid evidence to arrest them, it will only make our Feather Clan panic. If we catch the wrong person, we will give the real spy a chance.”
Time passed bit by bit.
The atmosphere of the Ascension Sect was oppressive, and gradually, the inner and outer sect disciples felt it.
The originally lively Yuhua Sect gradually became quiet.
Many disciples gathered together and did not dare to say anything, afraid that they would say something wrong.
Sizzle~
One day, the bell of the Yuhua Sect rang continuously.
Several figures headed straight for the main hall.
Many disciples looked up.
“Something happened?”
“Did he discover the true identity of the spy?”
“Damn spy.”
The bell fell.
All the elders in the hall had arrived.
“Today, we received news that our spies in the Twin Stars Sect and the Yin Yang Sect have broken through.”
‘The Yuhua Sect Master glanced at the elders and said after confirming that all the elders had arrived.
Creak~
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the hall closed.
“Who is it?”
The middle-aged man with a long beard stood up and said.
The other elders looked at each other and prepared for battle.
“Elder Shi Wanchou, tell me.”
‘The Sect Master said.
“Yes, our spies have received the news. There are no less than 2,000 spies from the Double Stars Sect and the Yin Yang Sect who have entered our sect. These 2,000 spies have already successfully entered our sect. Moreover, they are distributed in all levels of our sect, waiting for the critical moment to
attack our sect.”
“So many! Who are these people?”
“I don’t know who it is exactly. After all, the names obtained by the spies didn’t have any effect. When these spies entered our Yuhua Sect, they had already changed their names and even their backgrounds.”
Shi Wanchou said.
‘As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of all the elders changed drastically.
With so many spies, he still couldn’t master it.
‘The appearance of two or three spies in a sect could turn a sect from prosperity to decline, and there was even the risk of extermination.
Now, there were more than two thousand spies in the sect.
At the critical moment, stabbing someone in the back would directly cause immeasurable losses. Because of their appearance, the disciples in the sect did not dare to hand their backs to their fellow disciples, which indirectly caused greater losses.
“His background has changed! It’s even more difficult to investigate clearly. There are hundreds of thousands of disciples in our sect. It’s unrealistic to investigate one by one.”
“Then the information you obtained is useless. Why did you call us to the hall?”
A few elders were already prepared to make a move, but in the end, you told me that there were many traitors, but you didn’t know who they were.
“Actually, we have already obtained evidence that an elder is a spy of the Double Stars Sect.”
Shi Wanchou said.
“Who is it!”
As soon as Shi Wanchou finished speaking, the atmosphere in the hall became solemn again. All the elders stood up abruptly.
“Elder Ge, what do you have to say?”
Shi Wanchou looked at the long-bearded middle-aged man in green.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
‘They all stared at the middle-aged man with a long beard.
He didn’t believe it!
In the entire Yuhua Sect, the person the sect master trusted the most was actually a spy.
“Are you saying that Elder Ge is a spy?”
“He’s not his eldest personal disciple, Fu Hongchang.”
“What!”
“He is one of the candidates for the future sect master…”
It was shocking!
It was not that the elders did not believe it, but they did not understand for a moment.
If it was one of their elders, it would be fine.
But he was one of the candidates for their sect master.
Among the sect leaders, Fu Hongchang had the most potential.
“If he becomes the sect master…”
He didn’t dare to think about it.
If a spy became the sect master of the Yuhua Sect, the consequences would be greater than having more than two thousand spies in the sect.
Moreover, after the sect master became a spy, the entire Yuhua Sect would live on the pillar of shame.
If the Yuhua Sect was destroyed because the sect master was a spy.
In the long river of history, the entire Yuhua Sect would become spies for everyone.
The incident of the Ascension Sect would definitely happen again.
Fu Hongchang was captured.
Even his master, Ge Changqing, was stripped of his position and sent to the Forbidden Grounds to reflect on himself.
In the following days, the Ascension Sect began to investigate the disciples of the sect.
It was better than not investigating.
Three years passed quickly.
In three years, the Feather Clan had found a total of seventeen traitors.
Basically, their positions were not high, just like the inner sect.
In fact, when the Feather Clan investigated themselves, they started from the most important position.
‘The elders did not find any problems, so they only captured Fu Hongchang.
The outer sect disciples had no time to investigate, so they could only put it aside for the time being.
At this point, the Yuhua Sect had already wasted a lot of energy.
More importantly, they didn’t know how many spies there were among these supervising disciples.
How many disciples in the entire inner sect went out to investigate deliberately, or were bribed, or were lazy and let many spies escape.
One day, in front of the black-robed old man’s cave.
Aman wearing the uniform of a core disciple held two porcelain bottles and carefully placed them in front of the black-robed old man’s cave.
“Elder Qi, this is the annual tribute from the Pill Chamber this year. One Purple-gold Pill and one Constellation Pill.”
After the core disciple finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Amoment later, the door of the cave opened. The black-robed old man scanned the surroundings with his divine consciousness and put the two pills into his ring. Then, he returned to the cave and closed the cave.
“This year’s Purple-gold Pill was delivered so early, and this Heavenly Phenomenon Pill has always been a treasure of the sect. Why are you so generous this year?”
Elder Qi had some doubts in his heart.
“Yes! Perhaps there have been many matters in the sect in the past two years. Ge Changqing was punished to face the wall. The sect master can only rely on me. Give me a Constellation Pill to increase my strength, consolidate the sect master’s position, and increase the sect’s strength.”
‘Then, Elder Qi put down these questions.
After entering the cave, he thought for a moment and took out two porcelain bottles.
“Since Sect Master gave me two pills, he must want me to improve my strength as soon as possible.”
‘Whoosh~
He took a deep breath and the two pills flew out of the porcelain bottle into his mouth.
Amoment later, Elder Qi’s face turned red.
“Oh no, we’ve been tricked!”
Then, the meridians in his body were sealed, and he could not mobilize his vital essence.
“Bastard, such a spy has appeared in the sect. We have to let the sect master know as soon as possible.”
His divine consciousness moved and the cave opened.
‘The moment the cave opened, several figures appeared at the entrance.
Everyone stared at Elder Qi with a calm expression.
‘Why were they here?
Sensing that the atmosphere was not right, Elder Qi opened his mouth and said, “Elder Wen, you… what are you doing?”
“Of course it’s what we want to do. Take Elder Qi away!”
“How dare you! You’re rebelling! Aren’t you afraid that the sect master and ancestor will kill you?”
Elder Qi was furious.
“That’s right, we’re rebelling. Without you guys, the sect master won’t be able to cause any trouble. As for the few in the forbidden area, don’t worry, the free experts will deal with them..”
