When Cheng Yuan received Cheng Yuan's message, he was on the flying boat of the Liuyue Sect, guarding the group of traitors from the Tiancan Temple to prevent them from escaping.
Upon hearing the telepathic message, he knew that Cheng Yuan definitely had something to say, but he just wanted to confirm whether he was safe. So Cheng Yuan didn't hesitate and replied with the coded message they had agreed on earlier.
This code word was something they agreed upon before setting off, meaning that he could speak frankly and that he was safe.
Sure enough, as soon as he sent back his coded message, a bunch of voice transmissions came back quickly, explaining the current situation of the Heavenly Silkworm Temple and that those people had all gone to hide in their own secret realm.
For some reason, after seeing these messages, Cheng Yuan subconsciously asked: When did they start to evacuate?
The question came as abruptly as Cheng Yuan was puzzled, but he still sent over the specific time.
Then, Cheng Yuan looked at the time that had been sent, and his heart sank to the bottom. This time was exactly a short while after the Demon Lord appeared.
He clearly remembered that at that time, everyone had been intercepted and prevented from sending messages out.
Unexpectedly, those who had possessed bodies at Tiancan Temple still received the news in time.
Could they sense the Demon Lord's presence? Or are there other spies here? If so, who are they?
At this moment, Cheng Yuan's mind was completely filled with these questions.
Unfortunately, he thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer. He could only suppress his anxiety and wait for the leaders of each sect to arrive.
He planned to investigate the situation thoroughly before deciding whether or not to speak about it.
There was no other way, after discovering that three factions had demon spies and were also involved with the demons.
He was now worried that everyone he met was a demon spy, and he was even more worried that if he revealed someone's hiding place, he would be killed the next moment.
Although he was not afraid of death, he did not want to die so confusedly.
Having made up his mind, Cheng Yuan quickly regained his composure, as if he had not received any news. In private, however, he was secretly observing everyone to see if there were any spies.
...
Because this matter was of great importance, the leaders of various sects and factions arrived quite quickly.
Only five days have passed, and almost everyone has arrived, much faster than when Shushu and the others came by flying boat. This shows that these powerful figures from various sects still have many trump cards up their sleeves.
Among those who came this time, apart from the elder from the Tianyan Sect, the other three sects and three schools all had sect leaders and other people with absolute authority.
However, no one had any objections to the arrival of the Tianyan Sect. After all, with Wen Jianxi already here, if the Tianyan Sect were to send Sect Master Wen to appear, they would really be worried.
The situation was urgent, and each powerful figure, after a brief discussion with the people from their sect, went to the Flowing Moon Sect's flying boat to begin interrogating the traitors from the Heavenly Silkworm Temple.
The powerful beings were indeed powerful; after a short time of joint action, they confirmed the identity of the person who had been possessed—it was a subordinate trained by the Demon Lord.
Of course, they also got a lot of other information from this person.
They also found out the situation of the other disciples below; they were either controlled by the black mist or brainwashed.
Moreover, during the interrogation, Liu Yu discovered that the soul of True Lord Huiqing was still there, hiding in a thick black fog, struggling to survive.
When this was told to everyone, while they were amazed at Huiqing's good fortune, they naturally couldn't just sit idly by.
Soon, the powerful beings joined forces again, removing the fake Huiqing from the body of True Lord Huiqing, and trapping the fake Huiqing in a soul talisman, preparing to see if they could lure out anyone else.
As for control of his body, it was naturally returned to his true owner, and everyone worked together to gather some soul-nourishing substances for him to consume.
Not long after, Huiqing Zhenjun slowly awoke amidst everyone's anticipation.
However, the damage was fundamental, and he only had time to explain that he was ambushed while in meditation before he fainted again. In the end, he was carried back to the flying boat of Tiancan Temple.
Cheng Yuan looked at his master, who had fallen into a deep sleep again, and was filled with mixed emotions, both joy and sorrow. He had been prepared to lose his master, but he hadn't expected such an unexpected joy.
Cheng Yuan, feeling pleasantly surprised, took meticulous care of Hui Qing, doing everything himself and feeding him all sorts of elixirs and spiritual plants as if they were free.
After a series of actions, he actually managed to wake Huiqing from her coma again, but she was still very weak.
The moment Huiqing awoke, he asked about everything in detail. Upon learning of the current situation of Tiancan Temple, he sighed deeply, his eyebrows furrowing in worry.
Immediately afterwards, he asked Chengyuan to secretly deliver a letter to Liu Yu, asking him to come over.
Although Cheng Yuan was somewhat puzzled about what his master was up to, he listened to everything and secretly sent a message to Hu Hong, who had a communication jade tablet.
Before long, Liu Yu arrived quietly without alerting anyone.
After that, Chengyuan was also kicked out of the room by his master and sent out to guard the door.
Huiqing and Liuyu did not talk for long before Liuyu left, just as quietly as he had come.
Cheng Yuan didn't know what the two were talking about, but after Liu Yu left, his master's furrowed brows relaxed considerably, and even his injuries visibly improved.
However, he forbade Chengyuan to tell anyone about it. In fact, when someone came to visit him, he would revert to his previous state, so weak that he could faint at any moment.
This situation really baffled Chengyuan. He tried to ask his master several times, but his master always managed to evade the question.
Seeing this, Chengyuan finally gave up and stopped caring. Since his master had woken up, he could let him worry about the affairs of Tiancan Temple, and he was happy to be free.
Cheng Yuan, who was enjoying himself, did not notice that his master also breathed a sigh of relief after he shut up.
Actually, it's not that this can't be said, it's just that it can't be said now.
After all, those spies hidden in various sects are keeping a close eye on their Heavenly Silkworm Temple. What they need to do now is pretend that they haven't discovered anything, attract these people's attention, and make it easier for the Flowing Moon Sect to act.
Sigh! I just hope things go smoothly for Liu Yu. Once they rescue the abbot of their Heavenly Silkworm Temple, they can lock the secret realm. Once the secret realm is locked, those people won't be able to get out even if they want to.
He'll release the news then, and he doesn't believe those undercover agents will be able to hold back from coming forward.
Thinking of this, Huiqing's usually kind eyes dimmed slightly.
Meanwhile, Liu Yu was also secretly leading a group of disciples, rushing towards Tiancan Temple at full speed.
