Liang Ruohua pulled Luo Yan into the room, closed the door, and said:
"Junior brother, how do you feel about how everyone at Tiangong Workshop treats you?"
"Treat me like a family member." Luo Yan said very sincerely.
Liang Ruohua was indeed moved by his expression and sighed:
"To be fair, I also hope that the murderer is actually someone from outside."
"But...if the murderer is a monk from Hell as the Discipline Hall said, then the situation is extremely bad for us."
"Hell?" Luo Yan showed just the right amount of curiosity. "I've only heard that this is one of the six paths of the Demon Cult, but it has almost never appeared in public."
"It's true that they have never appeared in public." Liang Ruohua sighed, "But they have spies in all the major sects... About every few hundred years, our Yuqing Temple will discover one or two."
Luo Yan: ...
Wait, so I was born into the wrong family?
If I could travel through time and space to become a Hell Dao monk, with their connections among the traitors in the major sects, plus A Jing's ability of Mirror Flowers and Water Moons... and of course, the most important thing, which is my outstanding acting skills and wisdom, wouldn't it be a matter of minutes to collect the fragments of the Heaven-Repairing Stone?
That makes sense! If Wei Dongliu really gets in touch with Hell Road one day, he should see if there is a chance to switch jobs!
"The major sects?" Luo Yan showed an expression of incredible astonishment, "You mean, even the other five sects of the Demon Sect have it?"
"Yes." Liang Ruohua nodded.
"What do they want to do?"
"I don't know." Liang Ruohua sighed and said, "Anyway, according to Master and Senior Perry's speculation, Hell Road must have a long-term, secret plan to manipulate the situation in the cultivation world."
"But only the monks in Hell know the specific plans and goals."
"Do you have anyone you suspect, Senior Sister?" Luo Yan asked worriedly, "Do you think Senior Brother or Second Senior Sister might be the traitor in Hell?"
"To be honest." Liang Ruohua shook her head. "In fact, I originally thought that the most likely traitor was you."
Luo Yan:?
"The spies planted by Hell are all talented people." Liang Ruohua continued, "It is precisely because of this that they will quickly gain the respect of the elders of each faction and quickly seize the corresponding status and power."
"I see." Luo Yan also sighed, "Precisely because they are all genius disciples, unless the sect has extremely sufficient evidence, it is impossible to arrest them and interrogate them strictly."
"You are the most talented person in our Tiangongfang." Liang Ruohua stared into his eyes and said, "Master has said more than once that after we reach the Nascent Soul stage, we can go out and establish our own sect. But the only one who can truly inherit the name of Tiangongfang is you, Junior Brother."
Luo Yan showed an embarrassed and flattered expression.
"So I once suspected that you were the traitor who killed Fourth Junior Brother." Liang Ruohua said calmly, "But on the day of the incident, you followed Master and left Yuqing Temple, so this conclusion is impossible."
No, it is still possible... Luo Yan thought to himself, who said there is only one traitor?
Of course, he also saw that Third Senior Sister had indeed ruled him out as a suspect, so he asked in a low voice:
"Then Third Senior Sister, do you think it will be the eldest senior brother?"
"I don't think it will be the eldest senior brother." Liang Ruohua said simply.
The biggest suspect is the second senior sister.
Luo Yan understood. In fact, Liang Ruhua was unwilling to doubt the second senior sister, and was even more unwilling to investigate her personally.
But judging from the evidence from the Discipline Hall, it is most likely that the mole was sent by Tiangong Workshop, so she explained all this to me, hoping that I could help her get to the bottom of the matter.
What a pity, it's already too late at this point...
As the two were talking, they suddenly heard a loud earth-shattering noise coming from outside.
boom!
Luo Yan shuddered suddenly and rushed out of Tiangong Workshop. He saw that spider-web-like cracks had appeared in the sky outside.
The Taiyi Dunjia Yin-Yang formation, which originally combined the numbers of Dunjia, can perfectly transform and remove the external force of the attack.
However, at this time, someone had tampered with the formation, and the ability of the escape armor was completely ineffective.
Countless magical lights and sword flashes fell from the sky, hitting the formation like rain, causing more and more invisible cracks in the space.
Liang Ruohua also ran out upon hearing the sound. Seeing the flashing lights in the sky and the dense crowds of demonic monks in the distance, his hands and feet suddenly became cold and he almost collapsed to the ground:
"How...how could this be? Where did these demonic monks come from?!"
"Don't worry about where it came from!" Luo Yan turned around and growled, "Third Senior Sister! Is there any secret escape passage in the workshop that connects to the outside?"
"I don't know!" Liang Ruohua shook his head anxiously, "Apart from Master, probably only Senior Brother is most likely to know!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the eldest senior brother Linghu Chu and two monks from the Discipline Hall also rushed out in panic.
"Where's Lei Caiyan?" The female cultivator's expression froze upon seeing this, and she quickly told the male cultivator, "I'll go find Lei Caiyan, and you go find Elder Jiuling immediately!"
"Okay!" The male monk immediately flew up on his sword.
The two men quickly dispersed, and Luo Yan hurriedly pulled on the sleeve of the senior brother and asked hurriedly:
"Big Brother, does our Tiangong Workshop have an escape route to the outside world?"
"Tiangongfang doesn't have the power to build such a passage!" Linghu Chu's face darkened, "But Perry will definitely have one!"
"What should we do then?" Liang Ruohua asked anxiously.
Just looking at the densely packed demonic monks outside and their various massive attacks, it would be a sure death if they left the formation.
However, hiding inside the formation would be tantamount to waiting for death - if the sect's escape route existed, it would be the only hope for everyone.
Without further ado, the three of them hurried back to the workshop to find the second senior sister Lei Caiyan.
As soon as I stepped into the piano workshop, I saw the female monk from the Discipline Hall lying on the ground, her eyes were lifeless and blood was coming out of all her orifices. It was as if she was dead beyond death.
Lei Caiyan stood in the middle of the yard, wearing a black robe. Her long hair, which was originally tied up with a hairpin, was let down. Her originally taciturn and dull temperament now became cold and terrifying.
"Big Brother, Third Sister, Little Brother." She nodded slightly, no emotion in her eyes.
"Second Senior Sister, you are the traitor!" Linghu Chu and Liang Ruohua were still in shock, but Luo Yan reacted quickly and said in great pain, "Why did you betray Tiangong Workshop?"
"Betrayal?" Lei Caiyan frowned, seeming a little confused. "I was originally a disciple of the Hell Dao. I hid my identity and sneaked into Yuqing Temple in order to hide. How can it be called betrayal? It should be called deception."
Luo Yan: ???
Wow, this statement is really refreshing!
No, I have to write it down so I can reuse it next time.
