Volume 5: Seven Dao Sects Chapter 34: Lure the Snake Out of Its Hole (Part 2)
"How is this possible? Those present here are all high-ranking people in the Dao Sect, most of them are at the level of deputy sect masters. How could there be any accomplices from the Underworld? What conditions would the Underworld have to offer in order to bribe us? You think too highly of the Underworld!" Xuanji Dazun was the first to stand up and express his opposition.
"Nothing is impossible," Tianji Temple Master was unconcerned about Xuanji Dazun's rage, "Of course it is a taboo to fight against the demons."
"Then Master, do you mean to put us under house arrest and interrogate us?" Palace Master Lingye's face was as gloomy as water. "Although we all respect you, Master, as a high-ranking person in a major Taoist sect, it is not realistic to expect us to let you manipulate us, right?"
The more powerful the cultivator is, the more secrets he has and the more he values his face. How could he allow himself to be interrogated just because of a guess made by the master of Tianji Temple?
The head of Tianji Temple shook his head and smiled, "Of course I won't do such a risky thing.
It's just that the underworld treated this cultivator who sneaked into the Spirit Sealing Tower and tampered with the formation as a pawn, but they didn't know that a pawn also has its uses.
They may not know that the Tianji Mirror has a magical power that can observe the cause and effect lines of everyone in the world.
At that time, I only need to bring everyone to this abandoned child of the underworld and use the magical power of the Heavenly Secret Mirror to observe the cause and effect line.
If there really is an accomplice in the underworld among you all, then there will be an extremely complicated cause and effect relationship between you and this abandoned child of the underworld.
I came here to tell you all, and I hope you can cooperate with my request."
Everyone fell into deep thought. After a long while, Taibai Sword Master said indifferently, "If it is just such a small request, my Sword Sect agrees."
"My Taiqing Palace also agrees." Palace Master Lingye hesitated for a moment and responded.
Afterwards, everyone present expressed their agreement.
"If you are willing to cooperate, that's good." King Qingmei smiled calmly and immediately suggested, "Then let's go to the place where the abandoned child of the underworld is and let the master of the temple find out the cause and effect line!"
"Okay, let's go with the abbot." Taibai Sword Master was still the first to respond, and his eyes were also scanning the people around him.
Those present included the deputy palace master of Taiqing Palace, the deputy master of Tianji Temple, the saintly master of Longxiang Temple, the head of Huanling Sect, the master of Lunwu Hall, the master of Jia Building, and the master of Haoran Peak of Jian Sect.
These people are all great monks who hold great power. If the underworld has really infiltrated to such a level, it would really make people feel cold.
"Follow me." The master of Tianji Temple and King Qingmei disappeared, immediately stood up, turned into a beam of light, flew out of the hall, and hurried to a corner of the city.
The monks followed closely behind.
With their escape techniques, it won't be long before they reach their destination.
But at this moment, the face of the master of Tianji Temple suddenly changed, "The Xuantian Spiritual Record I left on that abandoned child of the underworld is dissipating!"
Everyone was shocked and quickly sped up again.
Soon, they arrived at their destination, a wooden building in the north of the city.
But at this moment, the wooden building was in a mess, and the body of a monk was lying silently in the wreckage of the wooden building.
"This... this... actually committed a crime in Lundao City. The underworld is provoking us human cultivators!" Seeing this, Palace Master Lingye was extremely angry.
He died neither earlier nor later, but just after the master of Tianji Temple proposed a solution to the problem.
Just less than half a minute later, this person died on the spot, and the method to resolve the problem was only mentioned by the Taoist monk present.
Is there such a coincidence in the world?
Obviously not possible.
There must be something fishy going on here.
"Master, what should we do next?" asked the Master of Shuiyue Temple with a frown, and at the same time he felt something was wrong.
She always felt that based on her understanding of her own master, he should not do something so flawed.
Wouldn't it be better to capture this abandoned child of the underworld and then go find them?
Why did he bring them here to find this abandoned child of the underworld? This only gave the monks of the underworld time to deal with the aftermath, which led to the current embarrassing situation.
"Now that the abandoned child of the underworld is dead, the light goes out and the cause and effect line is also empty. We have finally found a way to break the impasse, but it has turned out like this. What should we do next?" Master Chang Geng sighed, feeling very regretful.
"Although I am reluctant to believe this fact, as I just told you, there is a traitor from the underworld among you." When Master Chang Geng sighed, the cold eyes of the master of Tianji Temple suddenly swept over everyone, and his tone was full of murderous intent.
Just as everyone was in shock, a man who looked like the corpse was pushed out by the Green-browed King.
" He's not dead?" All the monks present were stunned. They looked back at the corpse, then at the abandoned child of the underworld who was held by the Green Eyebrow King. After a moment of confusion, they suddenly realized, "Is this a way to lure the snake out of its hole?"
"King Qingmei and I first captured this abandoned child of the underworld, and then used the art of incarnation to create a fake, lifelike abandoned child of the underworld, and then revealed everything to you. I really hope that my incarnation can be safe and sound, but the result is really chilling to me, and it should be chilling to everyone." There was no expression on the face of the master of Tianji Temple.
"This is a trap, to test our trap." Taibai Sword Master had already understood it clearly at this time, "No wonder you are so anxious, Master. It turns out that you want us to fall into your fast pace and react subconsciously."
Yes, as long as you think about it carefully, you will find that there are actually many loopholes in what the master of Tianji Temple just said .
For example, the simplest one is why they should be brought to see the abandoned children of the underworld instead of bringing the abandoned children of the underworld to see them.
Also, if the Tianji Mirror really has such a domineering ability to observe cause and effect, it would be as magical as the master of Tianji Temple said.
Why have Tianji Temple and Zhishou Tower been working together to fight against the underworld for so many years but have not achieved any breakthrough results?
Things like this were just that under the intentional leadership of the master of Tianji Temple, everyone fell into his rhythm and had no time to think about these details.
And if there really is a traitor from the underworld among them, and they subconsciously believe the words of the master of Tianji Temple, their first reaction will be to immediately find a way to kill this monk from the underworld in order to clear the cause and effect, destroy the evidence, and avoid exposing their own existence.
Everyone was shocked and angry at this time.
The Great Master Xuanji was the most shocked.
He was the one who least believed that there might be any traitors from the underworld among them, and his reaction was also the most excited.
But now the facts are before our eyes, there is indeed an accomplice from the underworld among them!
Who could it be?
At this moment, everyone looked at each other, and the meaning in their eyes suddenly became weird.
