Muchen took out a list and gave it to Luo Jiuyan.
"Besides me and the old servant, there are ten outer disciples and a horse-feeding servant. Among these people, one must be a spy. But I don't know how to identify him now. Do you have any good ideas?"
Muchen felt like he was trapped in the sect master's trap. He didn't dare to make any moves. He could only seek help from Luo Jiuyan and Xiao Qingran.
"Think of a way. Have them come to you. I have my own way of distinguishing them."
Luo Jiuyan just glanced at the names on the list and wrote them down.
I thought it would take some effort to find all the Sang people hiding in the Soul-Devouring Sect.
I didn't expect Muchen to come to me on his own initiative.
This way, we can catch them all in one fell swoop.
"I feel like my yard has been targeted and they can't come to my place. I'm trying to find a way to get them to gather somewhere else."
Muchen sighed worriedly!
The sect leader's sudden attack caught him off guard, and he was now like a frightened bird.
"I think it might not necessarily be these people hiding in the sect. Think about it, the people who frequently transmit intelligence and travel between the sect and the outside world, is it possible that they are the ones?"
Luo Jiuyan launched another fierce attack.
Xiao Qingran raised his lips calmly.
Mu Chen stroked his short beard thoughtfully. After a long pause, he shook his head with a frown, "It can only be those people in the sect who haven't been caught. I'll tell you the truth! The person who helped us pass on the news was the Lord of Anping City. He doesn't know my identity. When I was young, I saved his life, and we've been good friends ever since. All the news I have is passed on to the secular world through him. And over the years, there has never been a mistake. He doesn't know what news we are passing on."
Luo Jiuyan secretly exchanged a glance with Xiao Qingran.
This means that the lord of Anping City was not bribed by the Sang people.
That's easy now.
"What about the other sects? Could it be that they haven't had anyone planted by us in all these years?"
Luo Jiuyan continued to ask, his tone a little cold.
This made Muchen feel a little embarrassed.
However, he still answered truthfully: "We have sent people from our sect to other sects, but our talents are too poor and we simply cannot pass the assessment. Even if we send them to do odd jobs, no one wants them."
Having said that, Muchen's expression turned extremely bad.
He thought back on what he had done in the past thirty years and realized that apart from knowing that the Soul Devouring Sect had the secret technique of transferring souls and replacing bodies, the other information he passed back was of no great use at all.
In other words, he had been here for half his life and had not collected any important information.
No wonder the higher-ups sent their direct subordinates here.
It seems that the higher-ups are dissatisfied with him.
"Tonight, after dinner, you gather those people together. Just tell me where they are and I will go and find out."
Luo Jiuyan said this and stood up.
Muchen looked at Luo Jiuyan anxiously, his heart in turmoil. He felt that he was about to be in great trouble.
"I heard you got married and had a child here. Your son is already in his twenties. Did the higher-ups send you here just to let you live freely and comfortably?"
Luo Jiuyan's voice was so cold that it could freeze ice chips.
He was not angry on behalf of the Sang people, but rather used this incident to feel sorry for his mother.
Even though he knew that the person controlling this body was not his father, he just couldn't control his anger.
After enduring for several days, he finally found this opportunity to vent.
Mu Chen didn't expect Luo Jiuyan to attack him on the spot, and he felt inexplicably frightened.
He tried to defend himself: "I did this just to prepare for both situations. That old guy didn't want to pass on the art of soul transfer and body replacement to me. I married his niece, and the child I gave birth to is the legitimate heir. As long as my son can learn this art, I can learn this secret art and pass it back to my hometown. I..."
"There's no point in talking any more. I don't want to hear any more nonsense."
Luo Jiuyan said this coldly, glanced at Xiao Qingran, and the two left Muchen's courtyard together.
As soon as the two left, Muchen's face turned ferocious.
He kicked over the armchair beside him and roared angrily, "I have been hiding in this broken sect for thirty years for my family. Even if I have no merit, I have worked hard. He, a junior, dares to give me a hard time. What a person!"
The old servant was so frightened that he quickly grabbed Muchen and patiently advised him, "Master, calm down. After all, he is a direct descendant. He just arrived and such a big thing has happened, and you don't have a solution yet. He is young and hot-headed, and he will definitely blame everything on you. If he can really identify who the spy is, he has done us a good thing. No matter how dissatisfied you are with him, you must not show it. We still have to return to Sang Country in the future."
Although Muchen knew that what the old servant said made sense, he just wouldn't accept it.
He had been diligently lurking in this godforsaken place for thirty years, and in the end he was scolded and slapped in the face by a junior. How could he bear it?
"I want to see what he's capable of. If he can't tell who the spy is tonight, I won't be polite to him anymore."
***
Not long after Luo Jiuyan and Xiao Qingran left Muchen's yard and returned to their residence, Luo Jiuyan quietly went to the sect master's yard through the back door.
After discussing his plans for the evening with Xiao Rongchen, he quietly returned to his residence.
Not long after dinner, the old servant beside Muchen came to find Luo Jiuyan.
"My master asked me to take you there personally."
The old servant was quite respectful to Luo Jiuyan.
"Lead the way!"
Luo Jiuyan and Xiao Qingran followed the old servant and walked towards the back mountain of the Soul-Devouring Sect.
After the three of them left, a disciple immediately ran over to inform Xiao Rongchen.
When the three of them arrived at the foot of the back mountain, Xiao Qingran and Luo Jiuyan saw eleven people standing behind Muchen.
These people are the ones who escaped the net and did not show up on the day of apprenticeship.
Mu Chen bowed to Luo Jiuyan. Although there was still anger in his eyes, he endured it very well.
Luo Jiuyan walked forward and looked through the souls of these people.
He discovered that these people all had two souls inside them, which was basically the same as Muchen's situation.
That's easy.
Luo Jiuyan hooked his finger at Muchen with a cold expression.
Muchen thought Luo Jiuyan had already identified the spy from the people behind him and was about to tell him his name, so he subconsciously walked over.
The eleven people behind him all looked unhappy when they saw this scene.
No one wanted to be seen as the spy, and of course, everyone wanted to know who had betrayed them.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Luo Jiuyan.
Wait for the final result.
Muchen quickly came to Luo Jiuyan and was about to ask who the spy was.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard.
Muchen was horrified and looked towards the direction of the footsteps vigilantly.
When he saw that it was Xiao Rongchen and a group of disciples rushing towards him, his expression suddenly changed and he shouted, "Run! Don't let them see your faces clearly."
