Chu Zhiyuan frowned.
He was sitting beside a stone table in a small courtyard of the Heavenly Sword Branch Courtyard, leisurely sipping tea.
Upon hearing this news, his ease vanished at once, replaced by a chill in his heart.
The Fuyun Sect actually had an inside man from the evil sects?
It was truly hard to believe.
Yet judging from Zheng Ke's expression, he did not seem to be making it up.
But this was almost impossible.
The cultivation methods of evil sect disciples could not be concealed from the Four Great Sects, the Departments of Slaying Evil and Exterminating Demons, or even the Candle Demon Eyes of the City Guard.
Zhu Lingyun said, "Senior Zheng, as far as I know, the cultivation methods of our evil sects cannot be hidden from the Four Great Sects, can they?"
Zheng Ke chuckled. "Who said he cultivated our methods?"
Zhu Lingyun said, "If he does not cultivate our methods, is he still one of our disciples? ...Besides, once he enters the Four Great Sects, how could he still be willing to remain our disciple?"
"Of course, there are ways."
"What ways?"
Zheng Ke chuckled. "That is each side's secret. It cannot be passed on."
Zhu Lingyun frowned.
Hu Chengxiang said, "Nothing more than having dirt on him. He fears that if he tells the Four Great Sects, he will be hunted down."
Zhu Lingyun said, "What if he takes the initiative to confess and plays along with their scheme?"
"The Four Great Sects are not that generous." Hu Chengxiang shook his head. "Once they learn that he has ties to us evil sects, they will never keep him."
"They would kill him?"
"Even if they did not kill him, they would send him down the mountain to stay in the outer courtyard."
