Who Exactly Defected?

At this moment, Black Sha looked at his master, his master looked at Night Owl, Night Owl looked at Black Sha...

At that moment, time seemed to freeze throughout the entire world...

At this moment, Black Sha had only one thought in his mind... His Lord has surrendered!

At this moment, the lord had only one thought in his mind... Black Sha and Night Owl have surrendered!

What the heck? Why would you have such a thought...?

Black Sha said, "Look at this... If it weren't for the fact that the boss surrendered... why did our previous missions fail so miserably!"

The previous mission failures were one thing... but this time, our closest chance to success, you didn't even bother with the pretense, Master... you just went and did it yourself, huh...

So, my lord, if you didn't vote, then who did...?

My lord, my lord, what a brilliant strategy... Before, I, Black Sha, was still wondering why the Moon Shadow Cult was destroyed...

Now I understand, it's all because you, Master, were manipulating everything behind the scenes...

Our leader died such a tragic and unjust death...

Our leader didn't even have a chance to show his face before Qiu Tian snapped his neck...

Our leader died such an unjust death!

The Lord is utterly speechless right now... The Lord feels that the trauma he is experiencing at this moment is far greater than the trauma he suffered from burning his life force just now...

Just tell me, did Night Owl and Black Sha vote...?

No wonder they failed so many missions before... they had already given up...

This time, Night Owl and Black Sha didn't even bother pretending... they just attacked right there!

The Lord was furious...

Black Sha was also furious...

But only Night Owl still retains a shred of reason at this moment...

"Let's calm down... let's sort this out!" The white-haired Night Owl spoke while spitting out blood.

"Night Owl! What are you still going to do... Our lord has already surrendered... If I'm not mistaken, he was the one who orchestrated the Meng Lineage's affair... No wonder Meng Er's behavior was so outrageous... So Meng Er's death was arranged by you, our lord..."

"And then there's that 'Soul-Returning One Blade'... My lord, stop acting. That 'Soul-Returning One Blade' must have planned everything with you all along... His goal was to steal the resources from our Moon Shadow Cult's Number One Treasury... Don't you think so!"

Lord: "..."

Night Owl fell into deep thought... because Black Sha's words made sense...

"Bullshit... If I surrendered, I would have had you killed immediately... Why would I give you chance after chance!" The master glared at Black Sha.

The Night Owl fell into deep thought again... because what his master said made sense...

"Hmph... You still dare to say you didn't have someone kill me? Night Owl said he came here to kill me!" Black Sha roared angrily!

Night Owl fell into deep thought again... because Black Sha's words made sense...

"Bullshit! My order is to kill you after this is done!" The lord was furious!

The Night Owl fell into deep thought once more... because what his lord said made sense...

"Get the hell out of here! If you didn't surrender, why are you still alive when our Moon Shadow Cult is dead? You're clearly a coward!" Black Sha was heartbroken as he thought of the deceased cult leader; the cult leader's death was too unjust!

Night Owl fell into deep thought again... because Black Sha's words made sense...

Night Owl was completely bewildered... Wait... what these two said both seem to make sense... So the question is, who actually voted?

While Night Owl was pondering, Black Sha suddenly pointed at his master and said, "Night Owl's plan was supposed to be foolproof this time, so why did you suddenly jump out? And you still say you didn't vote in?"

Lord: "I swear to your mother... I should be the one who made this plan foolproof. If it weren't for Night Owl's intervention, my plan would have succeeded long ago..."

At this point, the Master and Black Sha Fiend suddenly turned their gazes to Night Owl...

Because both of them suddenly realized... that's right... if it weren't for Night Owl, it seemed like their master's operation with so many guards would have been foolproof.

And most importantly, what the hell is going on with Night Owl? Before, Night Owl was always as weak as a chicken, but this time, isn't Night Owl's fighting power a bit too formidable?

Damn, so many bodyguards were taken care of by Night Owl all by himself?

Even if the Hundred Ghosts Formation is incredibly powerful, it shouldn't be this powerful...

Isn't Night Owl's combat power a bit too outrageous? So is it possible that Night Owl surrendered beforehand, and his previous mission failures weren't due to a lack of ability, but rather that he was deliberately hiding his true combat strength?

Thinking of this, both the master and Black Sha looked at Night Owl...

Then, the two of them spoke simultaneously, each word distinct. "Night Owl! You! Voted!"

Night Owl: "..."

The Night Owl was completely dumbfounded...

No... you two were arguing so well, and I thought you both had valid points, so why the hell did the conversation suddenly turn around and I, Night Owl, voted?

I'm still lying here... isn't this what they mean by "caught in the crossfire"?

You two were thinking the other had surrendered just a second ago, and now you've suddenly turned your guns on me, Night Owl... So, Night Owl surrendered?

I, Night Owl, swear to the heavens that I am absolutely of commoner or lower status!

I could never be a wolf... If you vote for me like this, I'll be wrongly killed on the spot!

Night Owl rolled up his sleeves, pointed to the Death Spirit Curse on his arm, and said, "Can you guys even open your dog eyes and see... I'm still under Death Spirit Curse..."

I absolutely have to complete this mission. If I don't, I'll be in big trouble!

And Black Sha, are you stupid...? We're on the same side this time!

Seeing the Death Spirit Curse on Night Owl's arm, Black Sha immediately jumped over to Night Owl's side, pointing at his master and saying, "Good, Master, you're such a clever little devil who can bewitch people!"

I, Black Sha, almost got led astray by you, and almost unjustly accused Night Owl, a civilian and below who fought alongside me!

The only thing that can be thrown here is your lord!

The Lord was so angry he wet himself...

The Lord said, "Black Sha, what the hell are you talking about... What do you mean by 'commoners and Black Sha below commoners'... Can't you use your brain? I'm your Lord... If I surrender, and you become my subordinates, am I supposed to take you all with me to surrender too?!"

My identity is absolutely flawless; I'm definitely playing the good guy. If I were a werewolf, why didn't I take care of you guys before? I could have just killed you, Black Sha, and nothing would have happened, right?

If you, Black Sha, are dead, and the Tracking Spirit Orb is gone, how the hell are we supposed to find Yue Ling?

So how could I possibly be a wolf?

For a moment, all three of them fell into deep thought...

That's right... what the Lord said makes a lot of sense. If the Lord really surrenders... then all he needs to do is kill me, Black Sha... and his plan will be almost complete...

But Night Owl is under Death Spirit Curse, so he can't possibly cast it... He can't risk his life like that...

But if neither of them voted, then who did...? Was it me, Black Sha?

After much thought, Black Sha suddenly had a bold idea. "Do you think... it's possible that the cult leader surrendered?"

Night Owl: "The cult leader surrendered? The cult leader is headless... How can the cult leader surrender?"

Black Sha: "..."

Lord: "..."

Black Sha says, do you even understand what it means that sometimes, when all possibilities have been ruled out, the remaining answer, no matter how outrageous it seems, might be the correct one?

Therefore, I, Black Sha, have every reason to believe that the one who voted might be our leader!

Night Owl said the cult leader was truly wronged... The cult leader didn't even show his face from beginning to end... He didn't even have any lines...

He didn't even have a name... and in the end, you, Black Sha, managed to beat him into a pulp... Even the cult leader is headless, how can he possibly be a pulpy corpse?

Even if the cult leader wanted to join, wouldn't he need to have someone else in charge first?

"No! My lord, those people you brought aren't from our Moon Shadow Cult at all. How do you explain that... So you've surrendered!"

The Night Owl suddenly realized the key point!

Why did this chaotic battle occur today?

The reason is simple: if the master had brought people from the Moon Shadow Cult, Night Owl would have recognized them in a second, and such a chaotic battle would never have occurred.

But none of the guards that the lord brought were clearly members of the Moon Shadow Cult.

It was precisely because of this that Night Owl subconsciously assumed those people might be Yue Ling's people, which was also the main reason why the two sides were fighting each other!

So, your lord says you didn't surrender, then the question is, where did your subordinates come from?

"So it was you, my lord, who betrayed us!" Black Sha roared again!

"Bullshit! Those people are all from above... I don't need Moon Shadow Cult people, besides you two oddballs, who else is in Moon Shadow Cult! These people are from above! Night Owl... something's wrong with you! You were acting so ordinary before, why were you so fierce when you killed those guards just now? Were your ghosts too powerful? I thought I saw Ma Liang's ghost!"

"Those are the Hundred Ghosts Formation Flag... that's Night Owl's most prized possession..." Black Sha explained from the side...

"Nonsense... If he had such a treasure, why didn't he use it in the first place?" The lord simply couldn't accept this conclusion!

Even Night Owl himself was a bit confused about this... because what his master said made some sense... the fierce ghosts in his Hundred Ghosts Formation were just a little too powerful...

Night Owl could tell the strength of those bodyguards. To be honest, the moment the bodyguards appeared and saw them make their move, Night Owl even considered running away...

Because the Hundred Ghosts Formation doesn't seem capable of stopping the Dark Guards...

But for some reason, the vengeful spirits in his Hundred Ghosts Formation grew stronger and stronger as the battle progressed... eventually annihilating all the Dark Guards... This destructive power was somewhat outrageous...

"No... there's no point in arguing about this now. Shouldn't we take down Yue Ling first?" Black Sha suddenly spoke up!

Only after Black Sha uttered these words did Night Owl and their master realize that the real question was: who voted?

Now is the time to join forces and take down Yue Ling. Whoever doesn't take action to eliminate Yue Ling is the one who surrendered!

Thinking of this, the three looked in the direction where Yue Ling had been... but there was no sign of her anywhere!

None of the three even noticed when or where Yue Ling had left...

Seeing this, the three exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with suspicion towards each other...

All three of them had the same thought, "You still say you didn't surrender! Were you deliberately stalling for time for Yue Ling?! You two surrendered!"
