Chapter 122: Finding the Traitor
Lin Yun’s intuition was too accurate; Bilian was indeed in trouble.
After losing the spirit of the Thunder Sword, the Shenxiao Sect did not have internal strife, but instead united its front.
At this time, their thoughts coincided with Lin Yun's. They all wanted to find someone to take the blame, and the person to take the blame naturally fell to the unlucky old man Bilian.
Now that the forces of good and evil are in the stage of cooperation, a large-scale conflict should not have occurred between the two sides, but the Shenxiao Sect did not care about that and went directly to Bilian to ask for things.
Bilian was also very troubled by this.
He was really wronged this time, but no one believed it.
The elders of the Shenxiao Sect had expected that they would not be able to accomplish anything, as they believed that this gang of evil cult monsters must be planning to blackmail them.
There is absolutely no compromise this time!
So, after the negotiations failed, the Shenxiao Sect had already made harsh remarks.
If the spirit of the Thunder Sword is not returned within three days, only one of the Shenxiao Sect and the Qinglian Sect can exist in this world of immortal cultivation.
Either you die or I die.
In response to this, all major sects were watching the incident.
The people of Shenxiao Sect are well-known for their bad tempers in the world of immortal cultivation. This is also related to the environment of Shenxiao Sect. There are thunders above their heads every day, and they practice thunder magic, so it would be strange if they didn't have bad tempers.
This time, they showed a determination not to compromise. Other sects had no doubt that if the Qinglian Sect did not return the sword spirit to the Shenxiao Sect, the two sects would fight to the death.
Originally, the relationship between the two sects was rather bad, and there had been constant friction in the past. If it weren't for the external influence of the demon clan this time, the Shenxiao Sect would have been fighting with the Qinglian Sect on a daily basis.
The sect's treasure was lost, so the people of Shenxiao Sect no longer wanted to worry about it so much.
Of course, the top leaders of the Shenxiao Sect do not want to go to such a situation, but if they are not mentally prepared for this, how can they force the Qinglian Sect to return the sword spirit?
Now the pressure is on the Qinglian Sect.
Liu Ji was originally trying to crack the lock of the Record of Deception. When he heard that Bilian had stolen the sword spirit of the Thunder Sword, he could no longer sit still and immediately found Bilian.
"Return the sword spirit."
Liu Ji only had these few simple words at the time.
"Master, this is really not possible."
Then he was beaten.
"I'll say it again, return the sword spirit."
"How can I return it if I don't?"
Bilian looked aggrieved.
Now, Liu Ji believed him. Bilian was also a very important elder of the Qinglian Sect. At this time, there was no need for him to lie to him.
but……
The overbearing CEO Liu Ji said indifferently: "This is your problem, you solve it yourself."
Bilian also realized the seriousness of the problem. Being beaten by Liu Ji was a small matter. If a war really broke out, he would definitely end up in a miserable state.
So, he found Lin Yun and wanted to know the inside story. When he heard that Lin Yun thought that he was the one who took the Thunder Sword, he became even more furious.
Anger did not scatter his rationality, but made his thinking clearer.
"I was taken advantage of!"
Bilian used his brain and came up with a possibility.
"A third party stole the sword spirit and pinned the blame on me."
Lin Yun couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
There is no third party. The sword spirit is in him.
But of course he wouldn't tell Bilian. Wouldn't it be better to let Bilian take the blame?
Even Lin Yun followed Bilian's words and helped him to reason.
"So, this person must be an elder of the Shenxiao Sect, who has great power and can access the seal of the Thunder Sword. He deliberately leaked the news to Zhang Xiuya, but in fact he secretly stole the treasure."
"Yes, that must be it!"
Seeing that Bilian had been misled by him, Lin Yun also pretended to be stupid and asked, "So what should we do now?"
"We have to find the traitor."
Bilian felt it was absurd at this moment.
I actually asked the insider to help me find the insider.
But there is nothing he can do about it. If he doesn't find the traitor, he will be in big trouble.
Bilian finally realized the frustration of taking the blame for others.
Fortunately, he was lucky because Lin Yun was there.
"I'll give you three days. Within three days, I want to know who the traitor is."
Is this the crisis subcontracting by an unscrupulous boss?
"But, I will follow the elder to the Sword Sect tomorrow..."
“This is your problem, and you have to solve it.”
Bilian also spoke in Liu Ji's overbearing CEO style. In his rage, he no longer cared about Lin Yun's feelings and prepared to remotely control the Qinglong Gu to bite Lin Yun.
Gu creatures live in the human internal organs, which are very fragile. A bite from them can cause excruciating pain.
He wanted to teach Lin Yun a lesson so as to force Lin Yun to work for him.
However, the Qinglong Gu immediately told Lin Yun the instructions it gave.
Lin Yun was also stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses immediately, pretending to be bitten, and begged for mercy: "I was wrong, please forgive me!"
The lines were a bit dry, but Lin Yun's acting was very good. It was a feeling of communicating while enduring pain, and Bilian didn't think much about it.
How could he have imagined that the Qinglong Gu had already taken the shape of Lin Yun.
I have been raising Gu for many years, but I have never seen a Gu insect rebel.
A person may not even trust his own children and relatives, but he will not doubt his own poison.
"Hmph, you better take care of yourself. If the two sects really go to war in three days, I may not be in any trouble, but before that, you may be useless as a chess piece."
In order to threaten Lin Yun, Bilian no longer cared about logic.
If a war really breaks out, Lin Yun, a chess piece who has infiltrated the enemy, will be more useful.
Lin Yun did not expose him. Bilian gave him the task and left, while Lin Yun was thinking about countermeasures.
Bilian was impatient just now and did not ask Lin Yun what he was doing in the Sword Sect, but he will know it later.
This is also where Lin Yun is helpless. If he doesn't tell the truth, he will be stabbed in the back by the Sword Sect sooner or later if he stays in the Shenxiao Sect. But after he confessed, the Shenxiao Sect asked him to settle things with the Sword Sect, and more and more people would know his identity.
Once a secret becomes known, it is no longer a secret.
Dongfang Hongyue might have some opinions about the Sword Sect disciple's alias being exposed, but Lin Yun had never been honest with her about this before.
She was relatively easy to coax. At most, I could just lie down and talk to her, and she wouldn't be angry. Besides, she had said that her previous status was not important.
It is Bilian who needs to be dealt with.
Lin Yun was not afraid of Bilian. The Qinglong Gu could already be used by him, and Lin Yun had the capital to turn against Bilian, but he also learned some common sense during this period.
The Gu worms are all cultivated with the blood of the person who raises them, so they generally won't betray their master. However, the master still has the ability to kill all the Gu worms at will. And the master dies and the servant dies.
Lin Yun didn't know why the Qinglong Gu rebelled, but since it had rebelled, Lin Yun didn't want it to get hurt, otherwise, Lin Yun would have turned against Bilian long ago.
But if you think about it carefully, if Bilian knew that Lin Yun was a disciple of the Sword Sect, she would probably just doubt his loyalty. He should not have believed this stuff from the beginning, right?
Anyway, he should feel that with the Qinglong Gu around, Lin Yun has already let him control him.
It is estimated that by then, Bilian will remotely control the Qinglong Gu to bite him twice.
That means nothing's wrong!
Lin Yun quickly sorted out his thoughts and realized that there was no risk in breaking up with Jian Zong.
The task now is to help Bilian catch the traitor.
Who should I look for to be the traitor?
Lin Yun thought about the several elders he had met in the Shenxiao Sect.
It’s decided to be you, Elder Hu!
