The wind Dao cultivator whom Yang Lingrui had sent out earlier had kept his words firmly in mind. He waited honestly where he was and did not go anywhere else.
When he saw Yun Xiwu and the others appear, this cultivator who had innocently been swept into the demon-capturing operation finally felt at ease.
The eleven wind Dao cultivators Chi Tian had brought back earlier had also come with Yun Xiwu and the others.
On the way to this hidden treasury, they had already learned the rough truth of the whole matter.
Yun Xiwu had not directly told them about the eight Demon Children. She had only said that this operation was meant to flush out a Demonic Dao cultivator who had infiltrated the Wind Chasing Ceremony.
Everything Yang Lingrui had displayed before had been an act, fabricated to lure that person out. It was not his true character.
When Yun Xiwu arrived before the barrier of violent winds and saw that only this wind Dao cultivator was present, her gaze flickered with suspicion. "You are alone? That Command Officer did not come with you?"
The cultivator hurriedly cupped his hands in salute. "In reply to the Azure Nether Female Immortal, when we left the hidden treasury, Lord Command Officer was traveling with me. But halfway through, he seemed to recall something. He bestowed a portion of Divine Wind power upon me and had me leave first, while he returned inside."
"I understand."
Yun Xiwu nodded, then turned to Jiang Yinkong. "Yinkong, can you calculate anything now?"
"There is something strange."
Jiang Yinkong frowned. "Chi Tian's fate sign is extremely stable, but Ling Rui's fate sign and that demon cultivator's seem to have become tangled together. It is a state where you are within me, and I am within you."
