Chapter 34: Junior Sister is a Demon Clan Undercover
Ye Xiaoman got up and said, "I'll go out first."
Trying her best to refuse Xiao Chujing's company, Ye Xiaoman went out and came to Panlong Lane.
This is a busy street with many shops on both sides.
Ye Xiaoman found a teahouse and sat down, quietly looking at the people on the street, looking for the person she wanted to meet.
The voice on the line instructed her in her mind: [Go eat a bowl of tofu pudding.]
Ye Xiaoman's eyes fell on the vendor selling tofu pudding. She stood up, but instead of going directly to the tofu stall, she turned and went to the Treasure Pavilion in the city.
He spent a thousand gold coins to buy a magical instrument that could conceal her true appearance.
When Ye Xiaoman stood in front of the tofu shop, she was no longer a beautiful girl in the eyes of the tofu vendor, but an ordinary female cultivator with a forgettable appearance.
The vendor warmly greeted: "Sir, what would you like to eat?"
Ye Xiaoman: "One serving of tofu pudding with sugar and sesame seeds."
He lowered his voice again and said the codeword: "In the light."
The vendor shuddered and said in secret: "Heart towards darkness."
"You still want to buy some fresh tofu? Please follow me to the backyard to get it."
The peddler shouted, leading Ye Xiaoman into the house.
When they walked into the yard, there was no one around. The peddler stopped bowing and looked at Ye Xiaoman arrogantly, took out a packet of antidote from his arms and threw it to her.
"This is your antidote for the next 30 days. Serve your master well, otherwise, hmph."
Ye Xiaoman hurriedly took the antidote.
The peddler went into the inner room and took out a pair of jade seals.
"Your next task is to hand this thing over to the deputy city lord."
The jade seals are made of high-grade jasper, each one is the size of a palm, and are carved with two dragons playing with a pearl, with exquisite craftsmanship.
There are also marks like family crests, which don’t seem like something that ordinary families can own.
I don’t know what it is used for.
"You don't have to know, just do it," the vendor warned.
"If you fail the mission, the master will immediately activate the poison in your body, causing you to violently die."
Ye Xiaoman left the tofu stall with the imperial seal in her pocket, feeling depressed as if she was carrying a hot potato.
She didn't want to get involved in the massacre at all.
Although she is greedy for money and lustful, she is at least a pacifist.
The original novel wrote that the demons massacred Yongzhou City, causing heavy casualties.
Afterwards, a group of traitors were executed in the human world. Among them was a female cultivator who was specifically singled out and cruelly executed for helping the demons transmit the magic weapon for massacring the city.
Needless to say, the role of this cannon fodder female cultivator was played by Ye Xiaoman.
She doesn't want to die.
I have to find a way to save myself.
Xiao Chujing was sitting in the lobby of the inn drinking, facing the door, looking forward to Ye Xiaoman's return.
After waiting for a few cups of tea, Ye Xiaoman did not return, but the eldest brother and others came instead.
The outer disciples of the Qingzheng Sect agreed before leaving that they would meet in Yongzhou on the 25th to celebrate the birthday of the city lord on behalf of the sect.
Therefore, after completing their mission, the eldest brother and others came to look for Xiao Chujing and Ye Xiaoman.
After not seeing each other for many days, fellow students usually greet each other first.
But everyone was worried. Xiao Chujing immediately asked, "What happened?"
The eldest brother asked solemnly, "Where is the youngest sister?"
Xiao Chujing's heart skipped a beat. "He's gone out."
Senior Brother: "She's alone? Who did she go to see?"
"That's right," Xiao Chujing asked, "What happened?"
The eldest senior brother and a dozen or so fellow disciples were crowded in Xiao Chujing's room. He said, "Junior sister, you might be an undercover agent of the demon clan."
Xiao Chujing was stunned.
The eldest brother pointed to the lapis lazuli necklace that everyone wore.
"This is a monitoring necklace distributed uniformly throughout the sect. As long as a disciple secretly meets with a demon and comes into contact with demonic energy, it will glow."
"Ordinary disciples will take one, and a duplicate will be made at the same time and kept by the administrator."
The eldest brother took out a bunch of necklace copies and pointed at the one engraved with Ye Xiaoman's name, "Not long ago, I saw that the necklace of the youngest sister was lit up."
The eldest brother spoke his conclusion word by word, "Therefore, we can infer that the youngest sister has come into contact with the demons."
Everyone, including Xiao Chujing, fell silent. Everyone knew what it meant to collude with the demons.
Means traitor.
It means that anyone can punish him.
Xiao Chujing frowned: "You can't sentence Junior Sister to death just for this."
"It's also possible that she went out and was accosted by a demon."
Someone agreed: "Yes, the little apprentice sister looks like an honest person and would not betray the human world."
A fellow disciple retorted, "Everyone, don't let your guard down. Ye Xiaoman might be pretending. The demons are treacherous and cunning, and they'll do anything to achieve their goals."
Someone also reminded Xiao Chujing: "Junior Brother Xiao, you should be more careful. Maybe Ye Xiaoman has been lying to you."
Xiao Chujing felt heartbroken.
Because of his scumbag father, he hates the demons deeply.
Because of his dark upbringing, he cannot tolerate betrayal from others.
Ye Xiaoman can cheat him of his money and magic weapons, can kill him, can betray him, but she cannot cheat him, cannot... cheat his love.
The eldest brother thought for a moment and said, "This is a serious matter. We need to find evidence before we can convict the person."
"Let's pretend nothing happened in front of Junior Sister and wait for her to reveal her true colors."
"Junior Brother Xiao, you and Junior Sister are currently quite close, so the task of monitoring her is now left to you."
Xiao Chujing's eyes turned cold, "Okay."
Ye Xiaoman returned to the inn and met the eldest brother and others.
She keenly felt that the atmosphere was strange and people were not as warm to her as before.
But when she asked some questions, everyone quickly returned to their old attitude towards her.
"It seems that Junior Sister has found an opportunity. After being away for a few days, she has already reached the second level of Qi Refining."
"It's all thanks to the great teaching of Senior Brother."
The eldest senior brother was sad. How could such a lovely junior sister be a traitor?
He laughed and said, "It's getting late, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion first."
The city lord's birthday is in three days, and there is an endless stream of monks coming to celebrate his birthday.
Qingzhengzong is a famous and large sect, and the deputy city lord and the housekeeper personally went to the door to greet them.
"We have arranged the rooms, please come in, everyone."
The deputy city lord was over forty years old, tall and thin, with a horse face, and was very polite. The eldest brother and others praised his thoughtful service.
If Ye Xiaoman had not received the spoiler in advance, she would have never guessed that he was an undercover agent of the demon clan.
Online urging: [Find a time tonight to hand the item over to the deputy city lord.]
The person online was very enthusiastic about the massacre and was keeping a close eye on Ye Xiaoman's progress.
It didn't leave her any time to plan properly.
The moon rises above the willows.
Ye Xiaoman put on her nightgown, took her disguise magic weapon, and quietly walked out of the yard.
The housekeeper arranged all the monks of the Qingzheng Sect in the same residential area so that they could take care of each other.
This made Ye Xiaoman's actions more difficult.
If there is any sign of trouble, everyone will know about it.
She stuck to the wall, hidden in the darkness, and tiptoed to the deputy city lord's residence.
Every time she walked a distance, she would look back suspiciously.
She always felt like someone was staring at her.
As soon as Ye Xiaoman moved, Xiao Chujing, who was lying on the roof, also moved.
He followed her silently.
Follow her.
