Luo Mingsheng opened his mouth, but was so shocked that he didn't know what to say. In his eyes, the eldest brother who had always been kind and generous, actually had another side.
He stroked his beard and said thoughtfully, "So, the theft of the incense must not be as simple as it seems, and it is also closely related to the Supreme Master of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect."
His brows furrowed, "Could it be that the Supreme of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is from the Demon Palace?"
"No."
Master Chang Yan chuckled, "My junior brother and I have completely different opinions. The Heaven Monitoring Mirror is an ancient treasure, originally created to predict good fortune and avoid disaster.
"Before, the signs of world destruction appeared, but there was no movement. But now there is movement, which must mean that things are turning around. No matter where this mirror is now, it is a good thing."
Luo Mingsheng suddenly realized and showed some joy, "That's good, that's good... God still blesses my Dongzhou."
Chang Yan didn't refute what he said, but he sighed inwardly. If it was truly God's blessing, why would he need an unusual number to save the world?
He knew that Luo Mingsheng was not very good at deduction, and even if he said something, it would only make him unhappy, so he simply kept silent.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "Junior Brother, do you feel that you have changed over the years?"
"Palace Master?"
Luo Mingsheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Although Junior Brother Li and I are from the same sect, I haven't had much contact with him. I can't say whether his personality has changed, but..."
Luo Mingsheng paused, his expression growing darker. "He's been too close to Wei Qing, and his attitude towards the two major clans within the sect is biased. Minor frictions in the past were fine; competition between disciples is beneficial to the sect, not harmful."
But this time, he's using Qingyun's return to fan the flames, intending to suppress your voice within the sect. I really don't understand. What good does this do him?"
"Junior Brother Li and Junior Brother Wei grew up together, so it's normal for them to be close."
Master Chang Yan sighed softly, "I know that my temperament is too gentle and my authority is insufficient, so I beg not to take the position of Palace Master in front of Master.
Although Junior Brother Li is younger, he is superior to me in terms of talent, cultivation, grace and power, and overall vision. I have always felt that he is the most suitable person to take the position of Palace Master.
But his actions over the past two years have been far too ruthless. It's one thing for sects to fight to the death, but even within this sect, it's the same. There's no affection between the new disciples, so how can there be any cohesion?
Chang Yan took a deep breath and said, "It was a mistake to give in back then."
"Brother, don't blame yourself. The fault is not yours."
Luo Mingsheng snorted coldly: "I can only say that Junior Brother Li is just like this. However, our Master is still alive. If things are truly beyond our control, we, his unfilial disciples, will ask him to take the trouble to correct them."
Chang Yan sighed, "This is the only way."
Xiang Sheng followed Tang Yin to the side hall, drank some tranquilizing medicine, and went to bed immediately.
The tranquilizing properties of the medicine alone certainly wouldn't make her fall asleep.
Since her encounter with the Thousand Star Palace Master, she had made arrangements with Kui Yuan in advance, so she had escaped danger. However, at this point, she was not truly safe.
The Lord of Thousand Stars Palace has been in charge of the sect for many years. He is able to suppress the Luo and Wei families. His intelligence must be high. My arrangement is quite coincidental. He must still be suspicious.
If she left in a hurry, he would definitely see her flaw. But if she stayed here for too long, she would be unable to carry out the "luring the enemy into a trap" plan agreed upon with Jiang Yi and others, and her identity would be in danger of being exposed.
Her mind raced, and her right hand gently took out the jade pendant for communication from under the quilt.
Tang Yin stayed nearby, and since no one else would come for the time being, she immersed her mind in the communication jade pendant with peace of mind.
Jiang Yi was arranging people to spread the news when he sensed the vibration of the jade pendant. He immediately sent his men away and turned into the inner hall.
"Friend Si Dao, it's rare to see you contact me so repeatedly."
Xiang Sheng: "Fellow Daoist Jiang, do you still remember the attack on Zuo Jing two years ago?"
Jiang Yi: "Of course I remember. Fortunately, fellow Daoist helped me, otherwise I wouldn't have such a capable assistant by my side."
Xiang Sheng: "Two years ago, Fengyue Sect purged a traitor. Do you think there are still traitors in your sect now?"
"Of course."
Jiang Yi replied decisively, "Besides, it's hidden deeper thanks to Su Qing, so even I can hardly find it."
Xiang Sheng: "Then let me ask one more question. Has your sect leader ever asked fellow Daoist for a higher-level cultivation method?"
Jiang Yi frowned slightly, "Of course I will, but what I learned in my previous life is a secret teaching, which I can only pass on to my fellow disciples. If you want to learn, you must become a disciple of Huiyin Valley."
"I appreciate Daoyou Jiang's kindness. Since I'm already practicing swordsmanship, why would I switch to other cultivation?"
Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then what Daoist friend means is..."
"Fellow Daoist Jiang should understand what I mean."
Xiang Sheng spoke meaningfully, "The plan of luring you into a trap must be changed. Otherwise, it won't be the Demon Palace that gets lured into the trap, but us."
