The Truth of Caomiao Village? Daoxuan Is Shocked!

The Truth of Caomiao Village? Daoxuan Is Shocked!

Seeing the silent expression on Wan Jianyi's face,

True Master Daoxuan could not help but smile faintly.

He knew Wan Jianyi was tempted.

Yes, who could resist such an outstanding disciple?!

True Master Daoxuan shook his head.

If not for Xiao Yicai, he truly would have wanted to take Ji Changfeng as his disciple...

Yicai, don't blame your master.

Your master is doing this for the Qingyun Sect as well!

True Master Daoxuan thought to himself.

If he truly took Ji Changfeng as his disciple and passed the Sect Leader Position to him in the future, then without a doubt...

Xiao Yicai and Ji Changfeng would surely come into conflict.

Of course.

That was not the main problem.

What was the main problem? Ji Changfeng had already become Tian Buyi's disciple. Even if Daoxuan wanted to take Ji Changfeng as his disciple, he had no excuse to do so...

But Wan Jianyi was different!

If he wanted to take Ji Changfeng as his disciple, would Tian Buyi object? Would Tian Buyi dare to object?!

Certainly not.

After all...

During the Wilderness Expedition all those years ago, Tian Buyi had benefited tremendously. Wan Jianyi could practically be considered his mentor, not to mention Su Ru.

Wan Jianyi liked Su Ru.

That had been common knowledge throughout the Qingyun Sect back then.

Yet Fatty Tian had stolen her away.

Though it had been Su Ru's own choice...

Still.

Setting Su Ru aside, Tian Buyi had always owed Wan Jianyi. That was beyond dispute.

After all, Tian Buyi's current accomplishments were largely thanks to Wan Jianyi's guidance...

Therefore, if Wan Jianyi wanted to take Ji Changfeng as his disciple, Tian Buyi definitely would not object.

Nor would he dare to.

With that thought,

True Master Daoxuan looked at Wan Jianyi. He gently patted him on the shoulder and said,

"Junior Brother, think it over carefully."

"A talent like this is something you may never encounter again!"

Wan Jianyi silently drank the Spiritual Wine from his bowl without saying a word.

True Master Daoxuan shook his head.

With a light flick of his whisk, he rose and left the Ancestral Hall.

True Master Daoxuan had just stepped off the path leading to the Ancestral Hall when he spotted Ji Changfeng not far away.

A hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"Nephew Changfeng? You are..."

"Greetings, Sect Leader Uncle." Ji Changfeng gave a slight bow.

Rising, he smiled at True Master Daoxuan. "Sect Leader Uncle, this disciple has been waiting here for you for quite some time."

"Waiting for me?" True Master Daoxuan raised a brow.

"That is correct. This disciple has some matters concerning Caomiao Village that I wish to report to Sect Leader Uncle." Ji Changfeng spoke calmly.

He had long wanted to deal with this matter.

He simply had never had the opportunity.

Since he had met Wan Jianyi today, he might as well settle the matter of Caomiao Village as well.

"Hmm?"

At that, True Master Daoxuan's gaze sharpened. He gave Ji Changfeng a deep look and said gravely,

"Nephew Changfeng, come with me."

"This is not a place to talk."

As soon as he finished speaking,

True Master Daoxuan headed toward Yuqing Hall.

Ji Changfeng followed close behind.

Before long, the two arrived in a quiet chamber within Yuqing Hall.

True Master Daoxuan pointed to a cushion beside them. "Nephew Changfeng, sit."

Ji Changfeng did not stand on ceremony.

After bowing to thank Daoxuan, he sat down directly.

True Master Daoxuan said solemnly, "Nephew Changfeng, you said you had something concerning Caomiao Village to tell me? What exactly happened?"

Ji Changfeng pondered for a moment before saying, "Sect Leader Uncle, this is what happened..."

He recounted everything from Puzhi passing through Caomiao Village, to the Demonic Sect fiend's attempt to seize the Blood-Devouring Bead, to the "Demonic Sect fiend" using the Divine Sword Thunder True Art.

Naturally, he omitted the matter of Zhang Xiaofan becoming Puzhi's disciple.

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, True Master Daoxuan flew into a rage.

Boom—

An immense aura instantly swept through the entire quiet chamber.

Supreme Purity!

Undoubtedly Supreme Purity!

"You mean that a Demonic Sect fiend has infiltrated our Qingyun Sect? And that this spy holds no lowly status, at the very least a Peak Master?"

True Master Daoxuan looked at Ji Changfeng with uncertainty and shock.

Ji Changfeng remained neither servile nor overbearing. "This disciple does not know. However, that Demonic Sect fiend truly did use our Qingyun Sect's Divine Sword Thunder True Art that night..."

True Master Daoxuan's gaze flickered slightly. "Why did you not speak of this sooner?"

Ji Changfeng silently lowered his head. "This disciple did not dare."

"Did not dare..." True Master Daoxuan opened his mouth.

He suddenly remembered that when Ji Changfeng had first been in Yuqing Hall, he had indeed kept his head lowered the entire time and had not dared to say a word.

At the time, the several Peak Masters had thought Ji Changfeng had been scared senseless...

Sigh, so he really had been frightened?

After all, who would not be afraid in such a situation?!

The foremost righteous sect in the world.

And it had actually produced a Demonic Sect spy?!

Perhaps the very night Ji Changfeng spoke up, he would be assassinated by that spy?

To protect himself.

No one would foolishly blurt it out directly.

True Master Daoxuan's expression was exceedingly grim.

He looked at Ji Changfeng and said after a moment of silence, "Nephew Changfeng, do you have any guesses regarding the identity of that Demonic Sect spy?"

At that, Ji Changfeng pretended to think it over before saying thoughtfully,

"First, we can rule out my master. That Demonic Sect fiend had a rather slender build, so it definitely was not my master. Then we can rule out Martial Aunt Shui Yue of Xiaozhu Peak..."

"Because that Demonic Sect fiend was a man."

"Lastly, we can rule out Sect Leader Uncle..."

"Other than that, the remaining four Peak Masters are all highly suspicious!"

True Master Daoxuan silently nodded.

At that moment, Ji Changfeng added, "Sect Leader Uncle, this disciple has a plan. Why not secretly follow this disciple and directly test the various Peak Masters?"

"With your strength, that Demonic Sect spy will not be able to escape anyway..."

True Master Daoxuan frowned.

He had initially wanted to reject such a plan that disregarded a disciple's safety.

But on second thought, he was a Supreme Purity cultivator.

Could he not even protect one disciple within the Qingyun Sect?!

True Master Daoxuan pondered briefly. "Wait here for a moment."

As soon as he finished speaking,

His figure abruptly vanished from the quiet chamber.

Ji Changfeng turned to look.

Yet he could not even catch a shadow of him.

"So this is the Grand Purity Realm?" Ji Changfeng sighed softly.

He obediently waited in the quiet chamber for a while.

Before long, Daoxuan returned.

In his hand was a sword, a sword neither metal nor stone, seemingly gold yet jade, ancient and mysterious.

"..." Ji Changfeng was dumbfounded.

The... the Immortal Slaying Sword?!

True Master Daoxuan's expression remained calm. Casually holding the Immortal Slaying Sword, he looked at Ji Changfeng and said,

"Nephew Changfeng, let us go."

"Today, I will purge the Qingyun Sect of traitors!"

Ji Changfeng calmly swallowed.

He rose and gave Daoxuan a slight bow. "Sect Leader Uncle, which martial uncle shall we test first?"

True Master Daoxuan pondered for a moment. "Junior Brother Cang Song."

Over the years, he had always trusted Cang Song. He had even entrusted the authority over punishments to him, so...

True Master Daoxuan felt that Cang Song definitely could not be a traitor.

He would seek a little reassurance from Junior Brother Cang Song first...
