The four big shots exchanged glances. Long Mo frowned and said,
"Linyuan, since you had already uncovered this, why didn't you send the information directly to us?"
Linyuan spread his hands helplessly.
"I wanted to, but there was no evidence. Unless we searched their souls—but these people are disciples from prominent families across the various regions. If I had Shangchuan and the others make a move, wouldn't that create even more conflicts?
Later, when I received word that the Evil Immortals intended to act during the Grand Competition of the Five Regions, I planned to catch them all in one net. As long as they made a move during the competition, we could catch them red-handed.
It was simply beyond all our expectations that the Evil God would use a mobile formation to send the Elite Disciples of every region to the Sea of Buried Gods.
But this also indirectly proved that there was something wrong with these people. Every disciple on the list had conveniently avoided the mobile Teleportation Formation. Part of that was because I acted in time to save them, but the greater reason was that, after the disciples who entered the Sea of Buried Gods died, they could naturally take their places within their families."
Linyuan's final words carried a meaningful undertone, and the other four understood at once.
"Amitabha! The Immortal Domain must not fall into chaos at this stage. We can pretend not to know for now, rescue the disciples who entered the Sea of Buried Gods first, and settle accounts with them once we have the time."
Demon Emperor Mo Ya, however, shook his head.
"No, we need to pursue both fronts at once! Once they learn that the Sea of Buried Gods disciples have returned, what if they act ahead of time?
