An Unsolvable Deadlock!
"This was the Nine Underworlds Demon Palace's infiltration!"
Back when Lin Bai took over as the Holy Son of the Tianshui Sect, the Nine Underworlds Demon Palace had stirred up trouble across the Water Mirror Sea, causing a huge commotion throughout Chu.
But after Lin Bai captured two Young Lord Tier martial artists from the Nine Underworlds Demon Palace and handed them over to the Zhao Xing Office, the Zhao Xing Office suppressed the matter. Very little about what happened afterward had circulated.
Only after hearing Lin Bai's account did everyone understand what had happened later.
Yi Song narrowed his eyes. "The White Bone Sect is one of the Twenty-Seven Sects of Chu, a major sect second only to the Five Great Families and Seven Sects of Chu. Who would have thought that half of its upper echelons were actually sleeper agents of the Nine Underworlds Demon Palace?"
"That's truly horrifying."
It was indeed horrifying. If the White Bone Sect had not caused such a commotion across the Water Mirror Sea, who would have imagined that the White Bone Sect, one of the Twenty-Seven Sects of Chu, would actually be one of the Nine Underworlds Demon Palace's gathering points?
Yi Heze said, "Can Brother Lin determine that the Nine Underworlds Demon Palace has an infiltration plan based on this one incident alone?"
"Of course not. This wasn't the first incident." Lin Bai continued, "Does everyone still remember the Blood God Sect's affair in Ke Province?"
Yi Song, Huang Qingyun, and the others naturally remembered the Blood God Sect of Ke Province. Meng Qinxian, Yi Heze, and the other martial artists from beyond the borders were probably somewhat unfamiliar with it.
"Tens of thousands of years... Such a long stretch of time." Lin Bai drew a deep breath
