Chapter 33
For a moment, Lin Xubai wanted to throw up his sleeves and leave.
He was right to refuse to accept a disciple.
There is a reason why Chu Yingluo would suspect Lin Xubai.
"Before you came, we had never encountered any trouble in Yongshu Township. But since the first day you brought Junior Sister Jiang Wan into Yongshu Township, Junior Sister Tu was captured. It just so happened that she fell into trouble as soon as we left."
Chu Yingluo said with great force, "How could it be such a coincidence? We were fine when you didn't come, but as soon as you came, all kinds of unexpected things happened."
As for why she didn't suspect Jiang Wan, it comes down to the most important point of Chu Yingluo's judgment.
"You said you were from Xian Cangfeng, but I had no impression of you before this. I think it's not just me, Senior Brother You and Junior Brother Tu, can you think about whether you have any other impressions of him besides Junior Sister Jiang Wan? Who is the uncle he mentioned as the one who brought him up? And, when he's not around, do you think of him?"
The modified memory is not perfect. A mortal with no cultivation may be able to alter the memory at will, but this is impossible for a cultivator with cultivation. The modified memory will definitely leave loopholes.
Modified memories are flawed.
Just like Lin Xubai, his presence is not strong and it is easy to be overlooked, and the way he entered the world is also unconventional, which makes his origin unclear in comparison, and this is easy to tamper with in memory.
Just now, Jiang Wan told her that she was the bait to lure out the mastermind. When Chu Yingluo heard this, she felt that there was something wrong with Lin Xubai.
Otherwise, why would he think that a mere Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator could fight against the person behind the scenes whose cultivation level was unfathomable?
If it weren't for Junior Sister Jiang's good luck, she would probably have died here by now.
Coupled with Lin Xubai's weak and hurt appearance just now, in the eyes of Chu Yingluo, who had carefully considered how to implement the beauty trap, wasn't this a complete beauty trap!
Thinking back to the time when Wu Hualin had tricked her into a loop in the same way!!!
Lin Xubai, the evil cultivator is not running away.
You Sheng and Tu Changxing looked nervous and looked at Lin Xubai with wariness.
Rao Zhiyi looked at Lin Xubai with even more hatred in his eyes.
Lin Xubai: “…”
I don’t know whether I overestimated or underestimated them.
Jiang Wan: “…”
Uh, that makes perfect sense... Thinking about it this way, it does seem quite suspicious.
If she didn't have a God's perspective and hadn't read the script and confirmed that Lin Xubai was the male lead, she would also think that Chu Yingluo's reasoning made sense.
Jiang Wan glanced at the silent Lin Xubai out of the corner of her eye. To be honest, she had thought that she might have an identity crisis, but she never thought that this identity crisis would happen to Lin Xubai.
The male protagonist is so pitiful. He was originally rejected by the elders of Guiyuan Sect because of his half-human, half-demon background, which led to his low sense of existence. Now he is suspected by his senior sisters and brothers because of his low sense of existence.
Tsk, what a beautiful, powerful, and miserable early stage configuration.
"Senior Sister Chu, you've misunderstood. There's absolutely no way Senior Brother Lin is a demon cultivator disguised as an undercover agent who's infiltrated the Immortal Sect!" Chu Yingluo hugged Jiang Wanfu tightly and walked quickly towards Lin Xubai, reaching out and pulling his sleeve without hesitation. "There are many elders in the Guiyuan Sect who don't care about things. You may not remember Senior Brother Lin's uncle, but you all know Elder Xiong from the Law Enforcement Hall!"
Jiang Wan's expression was cold but serious. "On my first day as a disciple, I went to the Law Enforcement Hall with Senior Brother Lin. Going there was like going home. Elder Xiong also kept staring at me all day long. If Senior Brother Lin really lied about this and this uncle didn't exist, wouldn't Elder Xiong, as the elder in charge of punishment within the sect, know about it?"
Besides, if Senior Brother Lin's identity is different, wouldn't Elder Xiong be able to see it? His innate magical power - "Exorcising Evil" can see through all evil spirits!
You Sheng/Chu Yingluo/Tu Changxing:!
yes!
Apart from anything else, Junior Sister Jiang Wan is a frequent visitor to the Law Enforcement Hall, and because of her talent, she is the focus of attention of the peak masters of various peaks. Junior Brother/Senior Brother Lin is Junior Sister Jiang Wan’s "important" sweetheart, so how could the peak masters not know about it!
Jiang Wan let go of the cuff in his hand, and regardless of anything, covered his hand again - his palm gently pressed on Lin Xubai's wrist, patting it soothingly.
After many days, Jiang Wan's fingers touched Lin Xubai's skin again. He didn't know if it was his illusion, or maybe it was because he hadn't had such close contact for many days, which made him have an illusion. At this moment, his cold fingertips suddenly felt warm.
Lin Xubai did not feel the same resistance and discomfort as before.
never mind……
Jiang Wan didn't know what was going on in Lin Xubai's mind. When she saw her senior sisters and brothers understood what was going on, she turned and looked at Bai Qingqing.
"Are you absolutely sure that the kaleidoscope you have in your hand is real? Elder Xiong has made countless fakes and placed them in the Twelve Pavilions. Are you sure this one isn't a fake, too?"
Bai was taken aback for a moment, and looked at the 'Kaleidoscope' in his hand suspiciously. Suddenly, he felt as if his mind was churning with paste, and it was chaotic.
Jiang Wan didn't continue speaking, but looked at Chu Yingluo instead.
"Senior Sister Chu, your suspicions are correct. There is indeed a 'ghost' among us who is behind everything."
Chu Yingluo:! ? ?
Who? Are you sure?
Not only Chu Yingluo wanted to ask, You Sheng and Tu Changxing also wanted to ask.
"Blue Bianhua, you were the one who leaked this information, right?" Jiang Wan's eyes narrowed. "Rao Zhiyi, weren't you the one who repeatedly pushed everyone away?"
Everyone was shocked, and all eyes were focused on the bewildered Rao Zhiyi.
Yes, it was Rao Zhiyi who first told them the news about the blue red spider lily.
"How could I be a 'traitor'!" Rao Zhiyi retorted excitedly.
However, Jiang Wan ignored Rao Zhiyi's angry words.
Jiang Wan: "We've been watching the show for so long, isn't it time to come out?"
"Gutter rat."
Chu Yingluo saw that Jiang Wan was obviously talking to someone other than them, but she didn't sense anyone else. "Junior sister?"
"While the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits."
"You used Rao Zhiyi to spread the news that the 'Blue Blossom of the Other Shore' could allow people to leave Yongshu Township. You also deliberately let Tianyu Palace know about the 'Blue Blossom of the Other Shore's' method of inducing labor, causing them to arrest monks en masse in order to leave Yongshu Township. This perfectly solved the monk disappearance issue for you."
"You treat Yongshuxiang as a stage, and everyone as puppets on the stage, pushing them to perform dramas according to your wishes."
"You modified everyone's memories and used Rao Zhiyi to push all this behind the scenes, all in order to cause trust among us cultivators to collapse, causing us to fall apart and, ideally, kill each other."
"Isn't it?"
"Hahaha--"
A strange hoarse voice came from the empty darkness.
"Rao Zhiyi, she's right. You are indeed the real 'traitor.' Thanks to you, I can experience the joy of playing people to your will!"
"Rao Jingyi!" Rao Zhiyi gnashed his teeth, "Why? Are you kidding me from beginning to end?!"
“It’s fun!”
"Watching you rushing around trying to save everyone, only to find out in the end that all your efforts were in vain, with such disappointment and despair, I thought this scene was really fun!"
"I just made up the blue Bana flower and the flower sea and path outside the city, and you actually believed it! Haha——
How about that? You worked so hard, and then you found out it was all fake! Are you angry?
At this moment, whether it was You Sheng and his group, the three people from the Qiyao Sect, or the awakened little demon cultivators, they all understood what was going on after hearing this. It turned out that all the news they had received was false.
At this moment, Bai Qingqing was the one who was really upset, because what she thought was the truth had revealed her true identity.
She covered her head, her eyes sometimes clear and sometimes confused.
Chu Yingluo and You Sheng had already sacrificed their spiritual weapons at this time, but Rao Jingyi did not take these people's spiritual weapons and talismans seriously at all.
"To some extent, it was you who pushed them step by step closer to death. It was you who pushed those innocent monks who entered Yongzhong Township. It was you who gradually revealed the hope of life to them, leading them step by step towards death."
Rao Zhiyi took a step back in a daze.
"Why?" Rao Zhiyi found it hard to accept, as he was the culprit behind all this.
Rao Jingyi's face suddenly turned gloomy, and the look in his eyes when he stared at people became sinister and terrifying.
Rao Jingyi flicked his finger, and in an instant, the cave they were in turned into a circular altar.
Below the stage, residents of Yongshu Township stood densely packed.
The two disciples of Tianyu Palace who were originally trapped by their trap were now like puppets, staying quietly behind him.
The sky turned dark again without anyone noticing.
Everyone below was wearing red clothes, with expressionless faces, as stiff as puppets.
The altar was covered with red silk, and below was a red table filled with wedding banquets.
"Today, Rao Qiubai and I are getting married.
Everyone in Nagashige Township is invited to attend."
A bride in red sat in a red flowered sedan chair.
"As for you, after Qiu Bai and I have finished our wedding, you will be fully integrated into Yong Shu Township as a ritual to celebrate my wedding."
The last sentence was filled with murderous intent. It was obvious that he did not intend to let these people survive today.
"Oh no! My spiritual power is sealed! I can't use my spiritual weapons anymore!"
"No! I can't move!"
"Damn it! I can't even open the storage bag! What should I do?"
Everyone was in panic.
Just when I finally had a hope of escaping, I was beaten back to my original form soon after. It was like falling from heaven to hell in a second. I felt so complicated.
Not to mention You Sheng, he was in despair. The spiritual power he had just recovered was imprisoned again, and even Chu Yingluo who came to rescue him was defeated. Now they were really doomed.
Chu Yingluo's face wasn't looking good either, not only because the situation was not good at the moment, but also because she regretted being so careless and bringing Jiang Wan here.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Wan listened silently to the conversation between the two throughout the whole process. She didn't even react to Rao Jingyi's murderous words.
"Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you." Jiang Wan whispered in Lin Xubai's ear.
She didn't look at Lin Xubai, but instead looked elsewhere.
Jiang Wan looked at the "puppets" below the stage with an unclear expression, his eyes swept between them one by one, and finally stopped at the very end of the crowd.
The boss was still wearing the same plain purple dress. She stood at the end of the dark crowd, watching everything with an expressionless face.
"After today, you will die. It will be your great honor to witness my wedding before you die."
Sudden.
A strong purple light was accompanied by a loud "boom", as if the sky was suddenly broken.
"Oh? Looks like I'm not late."
