Chapter 134: In a Flurry
Chapter 134: In a Flurry
Fang Che felt that aside from Chen Ruhai and Fan Tian Tiao, who seemed slightly unnatural towards him, everyone else was fine.
After several encounters with the Palace Guardian, others were friendly towards him, including those at the Palace Guardian who dealt with the matter of removing the Xi Men family and the Huo family.
Some even treated him as a future colleague.
Fang Che could clearly sense this.
Night Dream was from Green Wave City, and after Fang Che arrived in White Cloud Continent, Chen Ruhai and Fan Tian Tiao were transferred to the Palace Guardian of White Cloud Continent.
This basically confirmed that Night Dream's superior was them. As for who was above them, he had no idea.
Fang Che mentally noted this.
Then, how many people in White Cloud Academy knew?
On this point, Fang Che felt it was a bit more complicated.
At the very least, Huang Yi Fan, the Deputy Mountain Leader, was aware; as for the others, it was uncertain, including Gao Qingyu and Meng He Jun, who might not know or might not even be aware.
This was evident from their reactions in Elder Shen's room during the White Cloud Lake incident.
As for the instructors like Li Changkong, they probably had no idea; their attitudes were gradually changing, and their initial suspicions were only due to the Su family incident in Green Wave City, which made them doubt Fang Che.
They suspected he had a Demon Sect background.
But after such a long time together, the suspicions remained, but they couldn't be certain.
The only other person who knew Fang Che's identity was the One Heart Sect traitor hidden within White Cloud Academy.
In that case, there were at least two people in White Cloud Academy. If the scope was expanded, it could only be Gao Qingyu and Meng He Jun, and it wouldn't expand further.
Fang Che mentally noted this as well.
Then, how much trust did Seal God Palace have in him?
Fang Che wasn't sure about this question. He could be certain that Seal God Palace wouldn't fully trust him, but their trust in him was at least seventy percent.
According to Seal God Palace's personality, if they truly suspected him, they would kill him directly.
But now, they might have other means to test him.
It was a test for Fang Che, a test for the Palace Guardian, a test for the Guardian, a test for White Cloud Academy, a test to see how much they knew, or a test to see what those informants thought of Fang Che, this 'One Heart Sect spy,' and what their intentions were.
For now, Fang Che was like a chess piece.
Both sides could use him, but it depended on how they played him.
After Fang Che figured this out, he mentally noted a question mark.
Because right here, there were infinite uncertainties.
...
The next issue was Mu Lin Yuan.
This was the key within the current stage's key issues.
Mu Lin Yuan, a titan of One Heart Sect, was severely injured and recuperating at Scholar's Residence under Fang Che's care. Night Dream had witnessed this entire process!
And Night Dream would definitely report this matter.
Fang Che was helpless regarding this matter. After Night Dream reported it, the upper echelons of the Guardian and the Protector would decide whether to come and kill Mu Lin Yuan or ignore him.
For these two outcomes, Fang Che was powerless.
He couldn't interfere with any decisions.
But one thing was certain: if Mu Lin Yuan was captured, Fang Che's line would essentially be cut off.
"Don't make any rash decisions."
The current Fang Che could only pray.
After much contemplation,
Fang Che sent a message to Seal God Palace.
"Reporting to the Grandmaster, I, Night Demon, inform you that the current situation is extremely unfavorable for our sect. The Ancient Jade incident has exposed Bei Mingxin, who was severely injured and fled, but over ten thousand people in White Cloud Continent died because of this. White Cloud Continent is under lockdown. Great Master was heavily injured by Dong Changfeng's Spear Intent with the Golden Serpent Spear, and he is currently hiding and recuperating in my place; it's difficult to enter or leave White Cloud Continent."
"Currently, the Guardian of White Cloud Continent has imposed a full blockade, and White Cloud Academy is conducting a thorough investigation. Many people have been arrested, and more are being arrested."
"The situation is critical."
"What I'm most worried about is that due to the exposure of the Su family incident in Green Wave City, White Cloud Academy is also very cautious towards me. Perhaps they wanted to use my identity to send false information to our sect or for other purposes, but this time, the matter is too big, and my side might not be safe."
"What should I do? Please decide, Grandmaster."
"Also, Second Master's injuries are severe, and my cultivation is low. The items I have are not of high enough quality. Aside from daily expenses, I am powerless..."
After writing this,
Fang Che carefully thought it over.
Then he sent it out.
There were flaws.
But this was the best he could do, as he was only a low-level disciple and far from being able to influence the upper echelon's decisions.
...
"Damn it! You, Bei Mingxin, have the nerve to occupy the Law Enforcement Platform with this level of competence?"
Seal God Palace was now in a flurry.
When he received Fang Che's message, he had no time or mood to read it.
He never expected such a big mess.
Bei Mingxin was severely injured, and Dong Changfeng's spear had pierced his chest. The four great bodyguards who followed Bei Mingxin were his longtime close guards who rarely appeared, serving as Bei Mingxin's security trump card.
This time, three of them were severely injured, and one even died.
Of course, this was not enough to make Yin Shen Gong suffer. What truly pained him was that he couldn't believe Mu Lin Yuan had fallen!
Mu Lin Yuan was trapped in Baiyun Zhou and couldn't get out! Moreover, he had sustained an injury from Spear Intent.
As a powerful cultivator, Yin Shen Gong was well aware of the severity of such a realm injury! Mu Lin Yuan could only rely on himself to endure it.
He had to eliminate the Spear Intent.
Among the powerful cultivators, those who suffered such injuries would never fully recover.
Take Dong Changfeng himself, for example. It was because he was injured by Duan Xiyang's spear that he suddenly disappeared, and in over a hundred years, he had only made a move once.
This alone showed how severe such realm injuries could be.
Currently, the five major sects of the Southeast Region of the Solitary Righteous Church in Baiyun Zhou had lost sixty percent of their arrangements. Some were captured, some died, and not a single one managed to escape.
The losses were devastating.
As of now, the cleanest place on the entire continent was undoubtedly Baiyun Zhou.
Of course...
What troubled Yin Shen Gong the most was still Bei Mingxin. Bei Mingxin had escaped and made his way to Yin Shen Gong.
"Why didn't this bastard just die!"
Yin Shen Gong was stunned, "You were given such an important task, and you still got exposed. What a pig-headed fool!"
Thinking about how he could move about Baiyun Zhou with ease, and with Bei Mingxin's cultivation being so much higher than his own, yet he still ended up like this.
Yin Shen Gong couldn't help but feel infuriated! It's fine if you escaped, but for heaven's sake, don't drag the Unified Heart Sect into this mess!
...
Bei Mingxin was so furious that he felt like his lungs were about to explode.
The losses were immense! All that hard work for nothing, not to mention finding any Ancient Jade, and on top of that, he was played like a fool. It's one thing to be severely injured, but what's worse is that a trusted expert who had followed him for hundreds of years had died!
This was an irreplaceable loss! It was truly heart-wrenching!
Moreover... the most obvious thing was that the Tri-Saint Sect's outpost was clearly a trap! Anyone could figure this out with their butt: this place must have been exposed long ago. The fact that the Guardian was left untouched indicated that they were baiting someone.
Perhaps they only wanted to catch small fish, but he went there.
And on top of that, there was Dong Changfeng on that side!
This was unbelievable! How could someone like Dong Changfeng be there?! This must have been a setup to frame someone, but I ended up walking into it!
This was the Tri-Saint Sect's fault, not anyone else's!
Bei Mingxin was so enraged that he immediately ordered the Grandmaster of the Tri-Saint Sect, Guan Shan Du, to come.
Guan Shan Du had no choice but to rush over, and by the time he arrived, Bei Mingxin had closed his doors to recover from his injuries.
With no other option, Guan Shan Du came to Yin Shen Gong with a head full of troubles.
"Brother Yin, you have to help me this time!"
Guan Shan Du was stunned.
The matter was too big for him to handle alone!
Once Bei Mingxin recovered and came out, Guan Shan Du would rather peel off a layer of his skin than face death.
At this time, Yin Shen Gong received a message from Fang Che, but he had no time or peace of mind to look at it. He simply put away the messaging jade, and regarding Guan Shan Du's plea for help, Yin Shen Gong spread his hands, "Brother Guan, this time, I can't help you. This matter is too big!"
Guan Shan Du felt like an ant on a hot pan, "Brother Yin, this matter... it's really hard to handle... How could such a coincidence happen? How did you just happen to encounter this? Who knows that Dong Changfeng was hiding in Baiyun Zhou?"
"This is something even the Guardian couldn't anticipate!"
"How can you blame the Tri-Saint Sect for this?"
Guan Shan Du's face twisted.
"What are you saying? There's no involvement of the Unified Heart Sect in this matter."
Guan Shan Du was surprised and even felt a bit hopeful. It would be best if Yin Shen Gong was as unlucky as he was; then they could comfort each other.
"What are you dreaming about?"
Yin Shen Gong immediately got angry, "It's because our Unified Heart Sect's Offering has fallen... Sigh, he was my trusted assistant. It's not like those useless incidents of your Tri-Saint Sect!"
Guan Shan Du sighed, his face filled with disappointment, "If you don't help me, I'm as good as dead..."
"Helping means I'll also get into trouble and be punished with you. Is that what you call helping?"
Yin Shen Gong was so infuriated by Guan Shan Du's disappointed expression that he almost wanted to kill him. He roared, "Die however you want to die!"
Guan Shan Du finally revealed his trump card.
This card was something he didn't want to play.
Playing it meant that for a period, Yin Shen Gong would have complete control over him. Yin Shen Gong's skill in controlling others by their weaknesses was renowned within the sect. Anyone who was controlled by him would be indebted to him for life, and the debt would never be fully repaid! But there was no other option; Bei Mingxin's hurdle was one he couldn't overcome alone.
Owing Yin Shen Gong a favor was still better than being killed.
Yin Shen Gong was indeed moved, "Brother Guan, are you serious?"
"I am!"
Yin Shen Gong stroked his chin, his expression shifting from gloom to cheer.
Finally, he relented, "But right now, Bei Mingxin is still furious. I can't guarantee anything."
