Chapter 38 The plan to eliminate traitors has been launched
Dongfang Hongyue was also a legend when she was young. She was the most talented one in the Demon Sect.
But the reason she was able to survive was because she had a stability that others did not have.
When she was cultivating the Divine Realm, she pretended to be only at the Transcendental Realm. In each fight, she only used 70% of her strength. Unless she was 90% sure of winning, she would not fight for the so-called opportunities and treasures.
In this way, she became the only survivor of the ten great geniuses of the Demon Cult.
She has been very steady in her life, but she failed recently because she didn't expect Hongrui to get the Broken Soul.
This also taught Dongfang Hongyue a lesson that she must be more cautious in the future. Now, she is teaching Lin Yun the same thing.
"This time, when you return to Yellow Wind Valley, others will also doubt your identity, so I will call Hong Ling out later and let you be caught. Remember, your identity is an undercover agent who has been caught."
After deciding to let Lin Yun stay in Huangfeng Valley temporarily, Dongfang Hongyue thought of the script.
Lin Yun also nodded.
This script is okay.
"Just concentrate on your training. Hongling knows your identity and will take good care of you. You can also be used as bait to lure out other spies."
Lin Yun nodded and had no objection to Dongfang Hongyue's arrangement.
"I'm leaving."
Dongfang Hongyue opened the talisman formation of the secret passage. She was in a hurry when she came here and did not take the secret passage. Now that she is returning to Lieyang Mountain, she cannot be as high-profile as before.
"I'm going to miss you."
"Practice Taoism well and don't let your mind wander."
Dongfang Hongyue walked into the passage without even looking back.
But her face was flushed.
"Oh no, am I in love?"
Dongfang Hongyue thought of a very mysterious statement.
When a cultivator reaches the realm of knowing destiny, he will begin to encounter various tribulations. Only after overcoming the tribulations can he enter a higher realm.
Dongfang Hongyue had only listened to it before, but now that I think about it, it seems to make some sense...
Uh, it seems like it’s because she’s been unlucky lately?
After Dongfang Hongyue left, a gust of wind and sand came, and the entrance to the secret passage disappeared. This place was no different from other places.
Lin Yun waited there for a while before Hong Ling hurried over. Seeing that Lin Yun was the only one there, her face was filled with disappointment.
"Where's the leader?"
"I'm leaving."
Hong Ling sighed and said with some resentment: "It's been ten years, and the leader never came to see me."
Um?
This resentful tone made Lin Yun smell the fragrance of oranges.
There's something wrong with you!
Lin Yun decided to give it a try.
"Haven't you seen each other for ten years? She was just talking to me about you."
Hong Ling became excited and asked, "What did the leader say about me?"
"She said you are diligent and hardworking, and a trustworthy person. She said you will take good care of me and let me concentrate on my practice."
Hongling smiled suddenly. Before, she was a heroic woman, but now, she smiled like a fool.
"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of you and won't let you get into danger again."
Lin Yun nodded with satisfaction.
How can you cultivate immortality if you don’t know how to use tricks?
"The situation of the Red Lotus Sect is not optimistic now."
Lin Yun decided to exaggerate some sense of crisis for Hong Ling, and Hong Ling nodded and said, "I know, there weren't so many spies in the Yellow Wind Valley before. They were all poor people rescued by the leader. It wasn't until some spies wanted to expose the secrets here that the Yellow Wind Valley began to be isolated from the outside world, but there are more and more spies now."
“I see…”
Lin Yun thought it was like this from the beginning!
It seems that Dongfang Hongyue's alertness was not developed in a day, but she became more cautious after going through a lot.
"I will not let any of those evil people who try to shake the foundation of the leader go!"
Hong Ling said this with murderous intent, and then looked at Lin Yun and said, "I have already roughly figured out who the spies are in the valley. Next, I am going to close the net, but there will inevitably be some fish that slip through the net. I hope you can help me blend in with them and find out some intelligence."
Does this mean that you want me to be an undercover agent for once?
However, this time we are only active in the Yellow Wind Valley, so there is no risk.
Lin Yun had no reason to refuse.
He is not loyal to Jianzong or Bilian, but Dongfang Hongyue has a close relationship with him.
You don’t need to consider who to choose to help.
So, Lin Yun was tied up by Honglian and taken into the Huangfeng Valley.
Before that, the two of them had also discussed the script.
Lin Yun was a spy. He finally escaped, but got lost and ended up back near the Huangfeng Valley, where he was caught by the patrolling Hong Ling.
This statement may seem a bit funny, but it actually makes it more credible.
Because others will definitely think, if this is really a trap, why not make up a more reasonable explanation?
Next, Lin Yun was paraded through the streets, and all the residents were told that he was a spy.
What Lin Yun didn't expect was that some people heard that he was a person who destroyed stability and unity, and actually threw stones at him.
Fortunately, Hongling was guarding by his side and prevented Lin Yun from being humiliated.
This allowed Lin Yun to witness Dongfang Hongyue's prestige in Huangfeng Valley.
After the parade, Lin Yun was locked up.
There were no prison cells in Huangfeng Valley, so Hongling made a cage, locked Lin Yun in it, and threw him in the center of Shengquan Lake, allowing only his head to show.
Everyone in the Yellow Wind Valley knew that the Holy Spring Lake was freezing cold at night. Even practitioners could only endure it for a short time. If it lasted for a long time, they would not be able to bear it.
This is a self-torture tactic.
Lin Yun had a good opportunity to practice.
At midnight, someone finally came.
It was none other than Wang Wanqiu.
Others may doubt Lin Yun’s identity, but Wang Wanqiu does not.
Hongling set up a water dungeon to make it easier for others to contact Lin Yun.
That's what Wang Wanqiu did. She found a shady place to go into the water, then secretly dived to Lin Yun's side and gave him a sound transmission note, and the two of them could start communicating.
"What happened? How did you escape? Where is this place?"
Wang Wanqiu cares about this a lot, and this is also the main reason why she took the risk to find Lin Yun.
She also wanted to know why Lin Yun suddenly ran away.
“Hongling had been following me when we were exploring the Holy Spring Lake. It wasn’t until this morning that Hongling came to catch me. But she seemed to be trying to tease me, and I rushed her out of the Yellow Wind Valley before she knew it.
The guards were changing shifts at the time, and no one stopped me. The wind and sand outside the valley were very strong, so she didn't dare to chase me, so I ran away. But I didn't expect that there was only wind and sand outside, and no spiritual energy at all.
I couldn't tell the direction, and I didn't know where I was. I ran for a whole day, but I didn't expect to run back."
Lin Yun said angrily.
Wang Wanqiu was stunned.
"The sky is full of sand and wind, and there is no spiritual energy... Could it be that this place is deep in the Death Zone?"
This is indeed shocking news.
Spiritual energy is everywhere, except in the Death Zone, which seems to be a place abandoned by gods. There is no spiritual energy and it is scorched by the sun all year round. No living creature can survive in such an environment.
Not only that, every night, evil spirits would appear in the darkness.
If there was just a lack of spiritual energy, it wouldn't become a death zone for cultivators.
Monsters at night are the scariest.
But in such a place, there is actually a secret place where people can rest and recuperate, live and work in peace and contentment...
