A Disciple Reports That a Prospective Holy Maiden Is a Man!
Dongfang Bai didn't notice this scene, but he felt that Senior Sister Liang Yun was a bit strange. Her actions today didn't seem like jealousy or revenge, nor did they seem like a test. In short, he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
But he was certain that Liang Yun would not be friendly to him. After all, this True Disciple had not obtained the Prospective Holy Maiden, while he had, and was even enjoying the resources provided by the Supreme Simplicity Sect. No one would be happy about that.
"Forget it, let's just take it one step at a time."
Dongfang Bai continued practicing his swordsmanship.
"Haha, I've got Dongfang Bai's hair. Next, I just need to find the hair of a male handyman disciple on Supreme Yin Peak."
Liang Yun arrived at the residence of the menial disciples at the foot of Supreme Yin Peak and found several male menial disciples who frequently went up Supreme Yin Peak to clean and do dirty work.
"You're the one." Liang Yun found a suitable target, a handyman in his thirties, with an ordinary, honest appearance, but rather muscular. Just thinking about the image of this handyman disciple with Dongfang Bai made her excited.
She had once framed an enemy, who then committed suicide after being witnessed by onlookers. Now she intended to use the same tactic against Dongfang Bai.
She approached the male servant disciple, who bowed to her respectfully, and she easily took a lock of his hair without him even noticing.
Everything was ready; all she needed to do was find the right opportunity to activate this Secret Method.
Soon, the second day arrived. The male servant disciple accepted his task and went to work on Supreme Yin Peak. Liang Yun followed behind him and saw that he was working in a place near Dongfang Bai's residence. She hid in the shadows, placed two strands of hair into the Yin-Yang Union Inscription Mirror, and then forced out a drop of her own Essence Blood to activate the Yin-Yang Union Inscription Mirror.
"Yin and Yang unite as one, heaven and earth unite in perfect harmony!"
Liang Yun's innate Innate True Qi was rapidly depleted, and her lifespan also quickly passed by a year. Then, the two beams of light disappeared instantly, one entering the male servant disciple and the other entering Dongfang Bai.
"It's done." Liang Yun was a little weak at this moment, but the Secret Method was successful, and she was ready to watch the show.
"He's gone, he's gone. That male servant disciple is going to Dongfang Bai's residence."
"What's wrong? Why isn't he moving?"
"Dongfang Bai should be coming out too."
"Damn it, that male apprentice has gone to work somewhere else."
"Impossible! How could this Secret Method possibly fail!"
Liang Yun's face was very ugly. She had tested this Secret Method and it was real. If Dongfang Bai could suppress the Secret Method and endure it for a while, she thought it was possible. But the male servant disciple couldn't possibly endure it. He would run towards Dongfang Bai under the influence of the Secret Method. Once the two met, it would be like dry wood meeting a raging fire!
But now, none of them are responding.
"If the Secret Method is fine, then the problem lies with these two." Liang Yun recalled the description of the Secret Method: it could only be used between a man and a woman, or between two men, or two women; otherwise, the Secret Method would be ineffective.
Evening.
The male servant disciple returned from his work and went back to his quarters, looking extremely tired. As soon as he got back, Liang Yun knocked him unconscious.
She threw the male servant disciple directly onto the bed, then pulled him down. "He's a man, and quite large. This male servant disciple is fine, so the problem is with Dongfang Bai?"
She left, and soon after, the male servant disciple woke up and noticed that his pants were loose.
"Someone knocked me unconscious. Could it be one of the female disciples from Supreme Yin Peak?"
He had long heard that some disciples of the Supreme Simplicity Sect were not very proper, but he never expected to encounter this situation himself. Instead of panicking, he was quite excited. "This female disciple is something else. She didn't even need to knock me out. I wouldn't resist anyway. It's a pity I didn't get to experience it, but I'm a man, right?"
In the following days, Liang Yun investigated Dongfang Bai, examining his daily life, habits, and other aspects, and soon she compiled all the information together.
"Dongfang Bai never bathed with the other disciples; no one has ever seen Dongfang Bai's body..."
"Dongfang Bai buys rouge, but he gives it all to his senior sisters; he doesn't use it himself."
"Dongfang Bai always sleeps with all the windows closed, and he does the same during his cultivation; he is extremely secretive about it."
Dongfang Bai never discusses men with other female disciples in private.
Combining this information with the failure of the Secret Method, she considered an unbelievable possibility: Dongfang Bai was not a woman, but a man.
"That's right, the male servant disciple is a man, Dongfang Bai is a man, which is why the Secret Method failed."
Liang Yun suddenly realized.
Verification is simple; she can just use the Secret Method again. However, she has only used this Secret Method once, and she cannot use it again for a year, otherwise it will cause a severe backlash.
Waiting a year would definitely be too late. What if Dongfang Bai's cultivation level skyrockets during that year, reaching a realm above the Innate Realm? Even if he uses Secret Method, what if he kills the female disciple in a moment of lucidity? Then his identity would be impossible to expose.
In short, she couldn't wait a year.
"The probability that Dongfang Bai is a man is 100%. In a few days, it will be the Supreme Simplicity Sect's once-in-a-decade grand ceremony, a very solemn event. All I need to do is reveal the fact that Dongfang Bai is a man at the ceremony. The sect's higher-ups will definitely investigate Dongfang Bai, and he can't avoid it. The sect will be furious, and he will surely die. I will have made a great contribution and will definitely be able to get the position of Prospective Holy Maiden." Thinking of this, Liang Yun was excited.
She can't report it now, because what if some elder wants to downplay the matter or even protect Dongfang Bai? Then all her efforts would be in vain.
Therefore, if someone reports him in full view of everyone, no one can protect Dongfang Bai.
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
Liang Yun laughed loudly, and the other disciples, hearing Liang Yun laughter, thought Liang Yun had broken through to a higher level!
Several days passed quickly.
Supreme Simplicity Sect, Supreme Simplicity Main Peak.
The sect leader, many elders, True Disciple, Holy Maiden, and a large number of disciples gathered here. Except for the supreme elder and some disciples who were out training, all the other disciples were here.
After Sect Leader Huang Qin stepped forward and said some inspiring words to encourage the disciples, Liang Yun stepped forward as well.
"Sect Master, this disciple has something to say."
Liang Yun's voice was loud, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
"Liang Yun, what is it?" Huang Qin looked at Liang Yun indifferently.
Liang Yun cupped her hands in greeting, "Sect Leader, all the formal disciple of our Supreme Simplicity Sect are women. Aren't we an all-female sect?"
"Yes!"
Huang Qin didn't know what Liang Yun meant, but she still answered affirmatively.
"If a male disciple of the Supreme Simplicity Sect were to infiltrate, and of a high rank, how would the Sect Master handle this?" Liang Yun looked directly at the Sect Master, seeking his reply.
"A male disciple has infiltrated?" Huang Qin frowned. "If that's true, then he's undoubtedly a traitor. Everyone knows our Supreme Simplicity Sect doesn't accept male disciples; only some menial disciples are men. To conceal one's identity and join the sect is to be a traitor. Once discovered, kill him!"
Having received the sect leader's reply, Liang Yun smiled, "This disciple is reporting that a Prospective Holy Maiden is actually a male disciple."
These words shocked the entire audience.
Dongfang Bai was also taken aback. He knew Liang Yun was targeting him the moment she spoke; she had discovered his true identity as a man. But how did she know?
"During that sparring session, did she perhaps use some kind of Secret Method on me to find out?"
Dongfang Bai panicked for a moment, but quickly breathed a sigh of relief. He even secretly took out Transformation Talisman, crushed it, and used the invisible power to modify his body.
"It's done. Then I'm not worried anymore. The power of this Transformation Talisman can last for a day, so it should be fine."
Dongfang Bai's expression was calm and composed, neither humble nor arrogant, but Liang Yun perceived it as feigned composure.
