Chapter 266: Who Are You?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

It never rains but it pours!

“How many powerful ape warriors have come?”

“The golden-furred amethyst ape, silver-backed ash ape, Bone Dust, Rogue Blood Snake, and Ba Xia. These are all great demon kings. Each of them is at the half-step of Semi-G.o.d Realm. There might be more.”

“In our sect, apart from the patriarch who doesn’t show himself, only our sect master is at the half-step of Semi-G.o.d Realm.”

In comparison, the enemies were much more powerful.

Except for these demon warriors, there must be others watching the patriarch in secret, waiting for him to appear.

“Give us some more time, we can increase our strength and the b.a.s.t.a.r.ds hiding in the sect will be found. Then we have nothing to be afraid of.”

Speaking of the traitors in the sect, everyone gnashed their teeth in hatred.

Not only was the confidential information of the sect leaked, but the Profound Void Sword Technique pa.s.sed down by the patriarch was also known by the outside world.

If it wasn’t for the fact that the Heavenly Palm needed the support of the Mysterious Sky Sect, it would probably have been all over the world by now.

Even so, the simplified version of the Heavenly Palm was everywhere on the continent, not to mention the mess when the official disciples entered the inner sect.

All of the blows were hit on the critical points, shaking the foundation of the Mysterious Sky Sect.

“Fortunately, the sect master only pa.s.sed down one move of the Heavenly Palm one move, and two moves of the Profound Void Sword Technique. Otherwise, we’d be in big trouble.”

“This demon spy is despicable!”

Anger rose in the hall.

The atmosphere became more and more oppressive, and cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of the top disciples at the peak of the Void Realm, especially when the elders glanced at them.

Many people got even more nervous by this gaze.

After a long time, to ease the atmosphere, w.a.n.g Qian’an slowly said, “Now, let’s discuss how to deal with the attack of the demon clan from the Mount Eternal!”

“We have to find a way to let the patriarch know about this. We alone are unable to stop the attack of the demon clan this time.”

“The sect-protecting grand array should be able to hold them off for a while!” The Sect-Protecting Elder pondered for a moment and said.

“But no matter how strong the grand array is, it can’t withstand the attack of the sect’s traitors. Elder Huang, your law enforcement team still can’t find the traitors yet?”

“Distribute the forces first. I’ll go look for the Patriarch!” Bai Zhijing glanced at the elders and said.

“The Patriarch has come out?”

The elders were shocked, and then joy appeared on their faces.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly changed.

The tension was still there.

But it was just different from before. There was an indescribable feeling in it.

It was obvious that they were relaxed since the pressure was transferred to someone else.

After all, they were not worried about the sect, but it was still unknown if they would survive the battle.

There was another kind of nervousness.

Bai Zhijing nodded and walked out of the hall under the gazes of the elders.

“That’s great. As long as the Patriarch comes out and takes care of these demon spies, everything else will be easy!”

The elders calmed down.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a little strange.

The following discussion was somewhat weird.

Many elders obviously didn’t want to lead the charge. They only wanted to fight from a safe position.

“Earth fire. We can use earth fire within the grand array. It will strengthen the array by several times. It’s impossible for the demon warriors to break the array.”

“As I said earlier, as long as we capture the demon spies, I guarantee that we’ll be safe!”

…

That’s right!

If the spies were captured, nothing bad would happen.

If the spies were still around, they would die no matter what.

Even if they were to escape, if the spies were among them, their route and plan would all be exposed.

They would only wait for death!

Nervous!

It was not that the elders and disciples were afraid of death, but they were afraid that their deaths would be in vain.

It would be useless death!

Under such pressure, the elders kept glancing around.

They all looked like spies sent by the demon race.

The elders also became cautious.

Everyone was calculating whether there were spies among them and began to think of ways to protect themselves.

If the elders did not come out, then they would flee immediately.

Thinking of this, a few elders’ spiritual senses landed on Bai Zhijing who had already left the hall.

“Elders, do your duty.”

w.a.n.g Qian’an glanced at the elders and said.

The elders were absent-minded, and the meeting could not go on.

w.a.n.g Qian’an knew that if they could not find the spy among the higher-ups, all their efforts would be in vain.

An hour later, the meeting in the main hall dispersed. The Mysterious Sky Sect began to set up a tight defense.

w.a.n.g Qian’an appeared at the back of the mountain.

He saw Bai Zhijing who was standing at the edge of the forbidden area and ran over to her.

“Senior brother, can you tell which elder is the traitor?” Bai Zhijing asked when she saw w.a.n.g Qian’an.

Just now in the main hall, she played along with her senior brother.

When she came out to look for the Patriarch, she had faked the news in order to trick the spy and make the spy reveal himself.

“Several elders looked different.”

w.a.n.g Qian’an shook his head.

This spy had hidden himself very well.

“To be able to leak even the Profound Void Sword Technique you taught, the spy is really terrifying. There are only a total of a hundred people who knows the sword technique.”

Bai Zhijing panted heavily as she spoke.

They still couldn’t to trick the spy out.

“Sigh, junior sister, calm down. At least after this bluff, that spy doesn’t dare to make a move now. Before the great battle, we are safe. We’ll have to think of another way during the battle.”

“Senior brother, don’t even think about the great battle. Even now, where can I find the Patriarch? If we can’t find the Patriarch, the spy will come to his senses and not wait for the great battle to erupt before giving us a blow. Who will be able to withstand it?”

Bai Zhijing’s hands began to tremble.

She could not imagine the consequences.

“Junior sister, you must stay here! If you don’t show up before the battle, it will be a deterrent to the spies,” w.a.n.g Qian’an said.

There was no other way now.

They could only wait.

Moreover, the great demons from the Mount Eternal were already on the way. In less than two days, the demon army would surround the Mysterious Sky Sect.

“This is the only way!”

“I’ll go and talk to Li Jiao! Don’t show yourself.”

After w.a.n.g Qian’an finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared.

“Senior brother, aren’t you exposing yourself by talking to Li Jiao?”

“It’s only right and proper for me to arrange for the Patriarch’s descendant before the battle. Even if the spies find out, they won’t know if it is the Patriarch who instructed me to do it.”

w.a.n.g Qian’an’s voice appeared in Bai Zhijing’s head.

Bai Zhijing was stunned for a moment.

“Senior brother is so cunning. Using Li Jiao to show the Patriarch’s attention to the Mysterious Sky Sect is a good trick.”

Bai Zhijing started to walk around the forbidden area.

After w.a.n.g Qian’an left, he stationed disciples around the back mountain.

This area could not be penetrated by spiritual senses because it was close to the forbidden area.

So the elders couldn’t investigate the situation in this place.

However, the closer they were to the forbidden area, the more time ta.s.sels would disturb them.

Bai Zhijing took only one misstep and in the blink of an eye, her hair turned grey.

Pulling her grey hair, she was upset.

“Getting old so fast! How annoying.”

She stomped her foot and turned around, only to see a figure appear beside the forbidden area.

He also had grey hair, but his face was young. He didn’t look like an old man.

“Who are you?”

When did this person sneak in?

Could he be a spy of the demon race?

How could a spy of the demon race come to this place?

The Patriarch?

This person was definitely not the Patriarch.

The last time they met the Patriarch, he was an old man who was about to die.
