Chapter 427 Infiltration



"Hurry up and leave, lest you attract other zombie kings."

Yang Sheng gave a shout, and the three of them left as quickly as possible.

There is more than one Corpse King in the Corpse-Nourishing Ground. Given the intensity of the Yin energy here, it is possible that seven or eight Corpse Kings could be nurtured.

However, as the most powerful being in the Corpse-raising ground, the Corpse King must have already divided up its territory, so Yang Sheng will not encounter a second Corpse King unless something unexpected happens.

Of course, they didn't encounter any unexpected situations and returned the way they came without running into any other zombie kings blocking their way.

After leaving the corpse-raising ground, Yang Sheng asked Han Yu, "Over the years, the people of Xin Kingdom must have collected quite a bit of information about the Golden Cauldron True Man, right?"

Give me a portion of theirs, and I'll use the rest of the Corpse King's inner core to infiltrate the Golden Cauldron Immortal's inner circle.

Han Yu was very well prepared in terms of intelligence.

He pointed to his head and said, "I've been planning to infiltrate Jin Ding Zhenren's circle many times during this period of time, and all the information is stored in my head."

Jin Ding Zhenren had three trusted confidants. One of them was his eldest disciple, "Poison Hand" Di Kui. This guy was a subordinate that Jin Ding Zhenren had taken in as soon as he arrived in Liang Kingdom. He was ruthless and extremely vicious.

Jin Ding Zhenren entrusted most of his affairs to him. If anyone in the court offended Jin Ding Zhenren, Di Kui would take action to destroy their family and cause their death.

The second is Lu Panlong, a general of the Imperial Guard. He was originally a general under General Gao Yuanlong, but after Gao Yuanlong's death, he surrendered directly to Jin Ding Zhenren and was willing to become his lackey.

Because of his military background, he was ordered by Jin Ding Zhenren to take charge of the Imperial Guards. Now, he controls both the defense of the palace and the location of the capital.

The third is "Blood Enchantress" Liu Pianpian. This woman was a notorious demon in the martial arts world, bloodthirsty and fond of sleeping with men before killing them, so she also had a nickname, Black Widow.

Someone had previously paid a high price to hire Liu Pianpian to assassinate the emperor, but she was stopped and subdued by Jin Ding Zhenren, and ended up doing dirty work for him.

In fact, although these three were nominally Jin Ding Zhenren's confidants, Jin Ding Zhenren didn't trust any of them.

Even the Yixian Sect, which he founded, didn't actually have any notable figures; the Taoist priests were just there to collect offerings for him.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult to infiltrate the side of Master Jin Ding. Apart from these three people, no one else even has the qualification to enter Master Jin Ding's main hall.

Moreover, as far as I know, of the three, only Di Kui can stay alone by Jin Ding Zhenren's side. The other two must have another person by their side after entering the main hall.

However, precisely because Jin Ding Zhenren is so suspicious, he actually doesn't have many people he can use.

Although Di Kui is ruthless, he is mostly cunning and scheming, and he is not good at doing honest work.

Although Lu Panlong appears very imposing, he is actually a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong. He looks like a wolf, but he is actually a dog. He is useless except for being obedient.

Although Liu Pianpian is quite strong, she is a madwoman who often does crazy things, so she can only be used for dirty work.

That's why I wanted to use my abilities to infiltrate Jin Ding Zhenren's inner circle in the first place. I never expected that this guy would rather have no one to use him than use me.

Yang Sheng squinted and said, "Suspicious? If he weren't suspicious, I wouldn't have had a chance."

After returning to the capital, Han Yu and Cui Laodao went into hiding, while Yang Sheng returned to the Demon Extermination Alliance on his own.

The two Taoist priests from the Yixian Sect are still waiting in the Demon Extermination Alliance, so Wu Tianqing has no choice but to serve them good food and drink.

In fact, the two Taoist priests were quite ordinary in skill, not even as good as those iron-plated sword-wielding men.

Jin Ding Zhenren established the Yixian Sect solely to seize its incense offerings, and therefore did not provide much training for the Taoists within the sect.

However, as long as they were out in the world, they represented Jin Ding Zhenren, and Wu Tianqing dared not offend them.

Just then, Wu Tianqing's confidant hurriedly walked in, glanced at the two Taoist priests, and hesitated to speak.

The leader of the Taoist priests from the Immortal Sect said with a forced smile, "Does Chief Wu have some secret he wants to hear? Then the two of us can leave."

Wu Tianqing quickly rebuked, "What in the capital can't be known by the Imperial Advisor? Stop beating around the bush, just say what you have to say!"

The trusted aide could only say, "Master, Yang Sheng has returned with the Corpse King's inner core!"
