Catching a Spy

Just then, a Sound Transmission Talisman quietly floated in front of him.

Yao Yuchang recognized it as He Yi's, and promptly withdrew the Sound Transmission Talisman that had not yet been sent to anyone else, and activated He Yi's Sound Transmission Talisman.

Before he could hear any sound from the Sound Transmission Talisman, everything went black!

He's been imprisoned!

Yao Yuchang struggled with all his might, but the restraint was exceptionally strong, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't loosen it even a little!

Just as he was filled with alarm, he suddenly heard a strong male voice behind him say, "Tsk, this old guy's got some strength. If I hadn't used eighty percent of my power from the start, I really wouldn't have been able to subdue him. Are you sure you didn't grab the wrong person?"

Immediately afterward, another young man's voice rang out. "This person is an elder of the Azure Frost Sect in the Mysterious Extreme Domain, and his cultivation has already reached the Nascent Soul Great Perfection. Elder Liao, please be sure to treat him with caution." Who else could it be He Yi?

Yao Yuchang furious. He never expected that He Yi would collude with Myriad Connections's people to arrest him!

It's unbelievable that Talisman Sect, the leader of the South Spirit Domain and North Spirit Domain, would collude with such a despicable and treacherous person as Myriad Connections! When he returns to the Immortal Cultivation Realm, he will definitely expose the dark side of the Talisman Sect beneath his righteous exterior!

It's no wonder Yao Yuchang thought the people who captured him were Myriad Connections's men. It's just that the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm knows that the Mortal Realm is barren and impoverished. Otherwise, why would everyone be so uninterested in the Mortal Realm? It's precisely because it's remote, barren, and has almost no value that it has no presence.

Therefore, it is common knowledge that there are no high-level cultivators in the Mortal Realm. Thus, the person who could imprison him, a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection, in an instant must be no ordinary person. Furthermore, considering that Xiushui City is likely the headquarters of Myriad Connections, everything makes sense.

Because of the sudden appearance of these ten cultivators from the Immortal Cultivation Realm, Myriad Connections probably worried that his plan to establish a base in the Mortal Realm would be discovered, so he decided to strike first.

He Yi was likely the first one to be arrested. It's estimated that Myriad Connections Wantong didn't go all out because of He Yi's identity, or perhaps He Yi made a deal with Myriad Connections by betraying the other nine of them to protect himself.

In an instant, Yao Yuchang formed a perfect guess in his mind.

At the same time, he did not give up the struggle. After realizing that he could not break through from the outside, he immediately switched to a spatial array and reached out to tear a hole in the space in front of him to escape.

But just as he tore the opening open, a brute force slammed it shut.

"This old guy is pretty capable, much stronger than that half-baked Nascent Soul from before." After closing the spatial rift between Yao Yuchang and Yao Yuchang, Liao Pantu immediately took out the Spirit-Binding Cage and locked Yao Yuchang inside before removing the restraints.

When Yao Yuchang regained his sight, he found himself locked in a cage.

Two people stood before him: He Yi and a middle-aged man with a bizarre appearance, whose face was only half normal.

Myriad Connections has actually gotten involved with Evil Cultivator?

There's definitely something fishy going on!

He suddenly realized what was happening, but he didn't forget to continue casting spells in an attempt to break free of the large iron cage that was imprisoning him.

But the result was obviously the same as before with Venerable Guijia; his Law Technique dissipated the moment it touched the cage pillar.

Liao Pantu had already set up Isolation Technique outside the Spirit-Binding Cage to prevent any residual Law Power from affecting others during the capture of Yao Yuchang.

Seeing Yao Yuchang, He Yi turned to the crowd of onlookers in the teahouse, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "The Lingxian Sect has discovered a spy from another realm and is currently apprehending him. We apologize for the inconvenience caused."

Upon seeing that it was He Yi, the storyteller on the stage was the first to cheerfully reply, "So it's Immortal He! Immortal He, you are busy with your own affairs, we are not bothered!"

All the guests in the audience echoed, "Yes, yes! It's alright!"

"Even if the immortal is busy, catching the traitor is the most important thing!"

Because He Yi had been patrolling the city during this period, he would occasionally slow down and stroll through the streets. At first, only the employees of the city lord's mansion knew him. Later, after the employees spread the word, almost everyone in the city became familiar with him.

Although almost no one has spoken to this Immortal He, he is said to be extremely powerful.

Seeing this powerful immortal diligently patrolling the city every day, the people's goodwill towards him grew rapidly.

The cultivators in the crowd watched this swift and decisive arrest, and none of them dared to utter a word.

After exchanging pleasantries with He Yi, Liao Pantu caught the man and left the Xiushui Madam Hu Teahouse with the Spirit-Binding Cage.

"Then I'll take him back first." Liao Pantu said, raising his hand to forcefully close the spatial rift that Yao Yuchang had tried to tear open again.

He Yi smiled and nodded, "Elder, please go ahead with your work. I'll come over when I'm done."

Liao Pantu led Yao Yuchang near the teahouse, took out a jade pendant, pressed it against the tree, and the two disappeared from the spot.

In the blink of an eye, Yao Yuchang felt as if he had arrived in a space devoid of any Spiritual Qi, as if he had returned to the time a few months ago when he was still traveling in the Spiritless Land.

Cage Compound is very quiet during the day.

Almost all the buildings here were empty at this time, because the residents had all gone to work in the fields.

Liao Pantu led Yao Yuchang, who was imprisoned in the Spirit-Binding Cage, into the last building.

The few people left in the room were completely unaware of the commotion outside.

The last building in Cage Compound looks no different from the previous buildings, but its function is very different.

This last building can be considered the true prison of Cage Compound.

The entire building is enclosed by a separate array barrier, which prevents anyone trapped inside from using any Law Technique, including spatial arrays.

There is nowhere more suitable to imprison cultivators above the Nascent Soul than this place.

Myriad Connections, a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator, was unwilling to farm. Later, he secretly tried to tear open a spatial rift to escape, but was caught in time by the automatic monitoring system of the Cage Compound.

After that, Venerable Guijia successfully became the first prisoner in the last building.

Now, Yao Yuchang is the tenth guest in the last building.

Yao Yuchang, who was being led around in a cage, looked somewhat dejected.

He tried every means possible but failed to escape; this person's methods were truly remarkable.

He sat in the cage, calming himself, and pondering his next course of action.

Suddenly he heard someone calling his name nearby, "Elder Yao! Elder Yao!"

Yao Yuchang the voice and saw that the person who had called him was in a room he was about to pass by. The person was waving at him while pretending to cling to the dense window pillars.

"Fellow Daoist Su? What are you doing here!" Yao Yuchang was surprised.
