The Yama Holy Lord's Guess

Wang Feng took off his shoes, preparing to take out the Voice Transmission Spirit Stone.

Suddenly, his brow twitched.

Then, he channeled his Essence Power and stomped the Voice Transmission Spirit Stone into powder.

"Luckily, I was quick-witted..."

Wang Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

How could it be possible for the Yama Holy Sect to contact him at this time?

If they make contact, then they've fallen right into Chen Ning's trap!

He got caught red-handed.

I suspect the other party didn't kill me because of this purpose.

By the time he contacted the Yama Holy Sect, he had been caught red-handed!

This confirms Wang Feng's undercover identity.

In doing so, they threatened the Holy Yama Holy Sect, causing him to lose face.

Therefore, you must never contact them.

If my exposure implicates the Yama Holy Sect...

Even if Dragon-Seeking Sect doesn't kill him.

Even Yama Holy Lord, will not let him go.

Their souls will suffer eternal torment.

However, he still dared not be careless, as his current situation was extremely dangerous.

He might be killed by Chen Ning's burly men at any time.

I have to be extremely careful!

Wang Feng has made a decision: he will stop sleeping from now on.

When you're asleep, you're at your most vulnerable and easily harmed.

As for escaping, he had considered it.

Rather, there was simply no chance.

Wang Feng's martial arts talent is average; he has only just entered the Spirit Martial Realm, and after twenty years of lying low, he has only managed to become a steward.

To put it bluntly, this job is basically doing odd jobs.

People of low status have little influence.

There's no way to escape.

Besides, how could the leader of the Dragon-Seeking Sect just stand by and let him escape?

Since returning from the Forest of the Dead, he has brought back several hundred Spirit Martial Realm experts, who are extremely loyal.

Wang Feng had tested these people before.

The result of the test immediately made him give up any further plans to take advantage of Chen Ning.

This is simply because all those experts at the Spirit Martial Realm obeyed Chen Ning's every word.

I wish I could die!

Ensuring such loyalty, Wang Feng dared not harbor any ill intentions.

So, there's no way to run away; all we can do is endure it and take it one step at a time.

At the same time.

Qian Province.

The Yama Holy Lord frowned as he felt a backlash from the Voice Transmission Spirit Stone.

Why was contact severed?

Could it be...?

The Yama Holy Lord quickly came to a guess.

The fact that the other party destroyed the Voice Transmission Spirit Stone means their identity has been exposed...

Perhaps the worst-case scenario is that they get caught red-handed.

That's why they destroyed the communication stone in desperation.

"This is not good..."

The Yama Holy Lord's face darkened with distress.

This chess piece was placed there by him personally to the Dragon-Seeking Sect; it might come in very handy at a crucial moment.

Now that he's been completely eradicated, where is his dignity Yama Holy Lord?

What if others question me?

"Well..."

The Yama Holy Lord looked bewildered, his brows never relaxing.

If the Dragon-Seeking Sect were to expose this matter, the Yama Holy Sect would lose all face.

Not only that.

This matter was started because of him.

It's likely that the four elders will also jointly petition to remove themselves from their positions as Holy Lord.

For some unknown reason, sorrow now surrounds the Yama Holy Lord.

At that moment, the sound transmission stone lit up.

A report came through, "Holy Lord, the two elders sent to Spirit Province have found out that Venerable Huang died at the hands of the current leader of the Dragon-Seeking Sect."

"Dragon-Seeking Sect again?"

The Yama Holy Lord looked surprised.

"Holy Lord, what is this 'Dragon-Seeking Sect'? Do you know anything about it?"

You misheard me.

The Yama Holy Lord replied without batting an eye.

Then, the voice on the communication stone sounded again, "Holy Lord, according to the remaining disciples of the Heavenly Extremity Pavilion, the Heavenly Extremity Pavilion and Venerable Huang did not provoke the Dragon Dragon-Seeking Sect. They killed Venerable Huang and Dongfang Shao of the Heavenly Pole Pavilion in order to protect the Wind and Cloud Sect and Heavenly Extremity Pavilion Sect."

"Knew..."

The Yama Holy Lord's indifferent reply left the other party somewhat bewildered.

"Holy Lord, what are your thoughts on the next steps? Should we negotiate with the Dragon-Seeking Sect? Should we exert pressure and question them?"

"No need..."

The Yama Holy Lord sighed and gave the order.

The sound transmission stone remained silent for a few seconds.

"Holy Lord, why must we remain patient? The young leader of the Dragon-Seeking Sect is not yet firmly established. If our sect were to raise questions about this matter at this time, it would certainly damage the reputation of the Dragon-Seeking Sect and leave us unable to cope. The higher-ups of the Dragon-Seeking Sect would not stand idly by. In order to give our sect an explanation, they would surely offer some apologies."

"This matter should not be blown out of proportion. Our sect's grand plan in Spirit Province cannot be affected by this. Let's minimize the impact and discuss this further..."

"But Holy Lord..."

"I say this is the end!"

Yama Holy Lord a sliver of anger, and the other side immediately dared not question him anymore.

"Alright, let's not bring this up again. The Dragon-Seeking Sect has been rooted in Spirit Province for a thousand years; we must not clash with them at this time and create unnecessary complications."

"Yes, sir!"

The sound transmission stone dimmed.

The Yama Holy Lord breathed a sigh of relief.

That was close!

It almost got out of control!

His undercover agent had just run into trouble, and now this whole Venerable Huang Zhe thing has come up.

How could he dare to provoke the Dragon-Seeking Sect again?

If the other side exposes Wang Feng's undercover identity, his position as sect leader will be over.

We still don't know exactly how much information the other side has.

He felt inexplicably uneasy.

It's awful to be controlled by others!

"Master, are you saying that the people from the Heavenly Extremity Pavilion, in league with the Martial Venerable of the Yama Holy Sect, want to offend you?"

At the summit of Vermilion Bird Peak, a hint of anger flashed across Cang Yue's exquisite face.

"Well, thankfully the Second Elder was there to protect us, so it was all without incident..."

Chen Ning smiled gently and said, "It's really nothing serious."

All three Martial Venerable were restrained by Meng Yuyi.

This time, the danger was even less than when we encountered the Troll Spider.

"This matter must not be left unresolved!"

Cang Yue spoke slowly, her beautiful eyes icy cold.

"I've heard that the Yama Holy Sect has a history of ten thousand years, with profound foundations, and its status is comparable to ours. They might cause trouble first," Chen Ning said.

Cang Yue laughed and said, "Master, if the other party dares to be aggressive, my Dragon-Seeking Sect is not to be trifled with. Besides, their attempt to harm you was already unforgivable!"

"Don't be impulsive!"

Chen Ning offered a word of advice.

But they couldn't dissuade him.

Immediately after Cang Yue left, an elders' meeting was convened.

All eight elders were present.

The position of Ninth Elder is temporarily vacant due to its abolition.

The ninth person will be temporarily replaced by Xiao Mei from the Law Enforcement Hall.

Even Meng Yuyi, who usually doesn't pay attention to what's going on outside, came to the scene in person after hearing that it concerned the sect leader.

After Cang Yue explained the ins and outs of the matter.

Her gaze was cold as she said, "Gentlemen, how can the dignity of the sect leader be violated? Please vote on my proposal to investigate the matter of the Yama Holy Sect."

After Cang Yue finished speaking, it was the turn of the other elders in their seats to express their opinions.

I second that!

Meng Yuyi uttered two words, and everyone couldn't help but shudder.

The Second Elder, who never participates in sect affairs, actually attended today.

And their attitude was so resolute.

It is imperative to uphold the authority of the sect leader.

Several elders immediately realized that what was happening today was probably no small matter.
