Looking at Wan Jianyi's expression, which was full of silence, Dao Xuan, the True Person, couldn't help but smile slightly. He knew Wan Jianyi was moved.
Yes, with such an outstanding disciple, who wouldn't be tempted?!
Dao Xuan, the True Person, shook his head. If it weren't for Xiao Yicai, he really wanted to take Ji Changfeng as a disciple…
"Yicai, don't blame me, Master. I'm also doing this for Qingyun Sect!" Dao Xuan, the True Person, thought to himself.
If he truly took Ji Changfeng as a disciple, and if he were to pass the position of Sect Leader to him in the future, then without a doubt…
Xiao Yicai and Ji Changfeng would definitely be at odds.
Of course.
That wasn't the main issue.
What was the main issue? Ji Changfeng had already become a disciple of Tian Buyi. Even if Dao Xuan, the True Person, wanted to take Ji Changfeng as a disciple, he wouldn't have any excuse…
But Wan Jianyi was different!
If he wanted to take Ji Changfeng as a disciple, would Tian Buyi have an opinion? Would Tian Buyi dare to have an opinion!?
Definitely not.
After all…
Back during their time in the wilderness, Tian Buyi benefited greatly. Wan Jianyi could practically be considered his mentor, not to mention the relationship with Su Ru.
Wan Jianyi liked Su Ru.
This was something everyone in the Qingyun Sect knew at the time.
Yet, that fatso Tian Buyi stole her away.
Although it was Su Ru's own choice...
But regardless.
Putting Su Ru aside, Tian Buyi always owed Wan Jianyi a debt, something that couldn't be denied.
After all, Tian Buyi's current accomplishments were largely thanks to Wan Jianyi's guidance...
Therefore, if Wan Jianyi wanted to take Ji Changfeng as a disciple, Tian Buyi definitely wouldn't object.
He wouldn't dare to object.
Thinking of this.
Dao Xuan, the True Person, looked at Wan Jianyi and gently patted his shoulder, saying:
"Junior Brother, think it over carefully."
"Such a good seedling is hard to come by!"
Wan Jianyi silently drank the spiritual wine in his bowl, saying nothing.
Dao Xuan, the True Person, shook his head.
He lightly flicked his horsetail whisk and then rose, leaving the Ancestral Hall.
Dao Xuan, the True Person, had just walked out of the path leading to the Ancestral Hall when he saw Ji Changfeng not far away.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Nephew Changfeng? What are you doing here...?"
"Greetings, Sect Leader," Ji Changfeng bowed slightly.
He stood up and smiled at Dao Xuan, the True Person. "Sect Leader, this disciple has been waiting for you here for quite some time."
"Waiting for me?" Dao Xuan, the True Person, raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Yes, I have some matters concerning Caomiao Village that I wish to report to you, Sect Leader." Ji Changfeng said calmly.
He had wanted to deal with this matter for a long time.
However, he hadn't had the chance.
Since he had met Wan Jianyi today, he decided to resolve the 'Caomiao Village' matter at the same time.
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, Dao Xuan, the True Person's eyes narrowed slightly. He looked at Ji Changfeng with a rather profound gaze and said in a serious tone: "Nephew Changfeng, follow me."
"This is not the place to talk."
As soon as the words left his mouth.
Dao Xuan, the True Person, took the lead and walked towards the Jade Pure Hall.
Ji Changfeng followed closely behind.
Before long, the two arrived in a quiet room inside the Jade Pure Hall.
Dao Xuan, the True Person, pointed to a futon on the side and said, "Nephew Changfeng, sit."
Ji Changfeng didn't stand on ceremony.
After bowing to Dao Xuan to express his thanks, he sat down directly.
Dao Xuan, the True Person, spoke in a serious tone, "Nephew Changfeng, you just said you had something to tell this poor Daoist about Caomiao Village? What exactly happened?"
Ji Changfeng pondered for a moment before saying, "Senior Martial Uncle, the headmaster, the situation is this..."
He recounted the entire incident, from Puzhi's journey to Caomiao Village to the Demon Sect's attempt to seize the Bloodthirsty Bead, and the 'Demon Sect villain's' use of the Divine Sword and Lightning Control Technique.
Of course, he omitted the part about Zhang Xiaofan becoming Puzhi's disciple.
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, Dao Xuan, the True Person, was immediately furious.
"Boom—"
A vast aura instantly swept through the entire quiet room.
Taiqing!
Definitely Taiqing!
"You mean, there's a Demon Sect spy within our Qingyun Sect? And the spy's status is not low? At least a head of a branch?"
Dao Xuan, the True Person, looked at Ji Changfeng with a mixture of surprise and doubt.
Seeing this, Ji Changfeng spoke without being servile or arrogant, "This disciple doesn't know the full story, but that Demon Sect fiend that night did indeed use our Qingyun Sect's Divine Sword and Lightning Control Technique…"
Dao Xuan, the True Person's eyes flickered slightly. "Why didn't you say this sooner?"
Ji Changfeng lowered his head silently. "This disciple dared not."
"Dared not…" Dao Xuan, the True Person, opened his mouth.
He suddenly remembered that when Ji Changfeng was in the Jade Pure Hall, he had indeed kept his head down, not daring to say a word.
At the time, he and the other heads had even thought Ji Changfeng was scared witless…
Sigh, was it really because he was scared?
After all that had happened, who wouldn't be afraid?!
The leading righteous sect.
Had actually been infiltrated by a spy from the Demon Sect?!
Perhaps Ji Changfeng would be assassinated by the spy the very night he spoke?
For self-preservation.
No one would be foolish enough to just blurt it out.
Dao Xuan, the True Person's expression was exceptionally grim.
His gaze fell on Ji Changfeng, and he said in silence, "Nephew Changfeng, do you have any guesses about the identity of the Demon Sect spy?"
Hearing this, Ji Changfeng pretended to be thinking, and pondered,
"Firstly, I'll rule out my master, because that Demon Sect fiend was rather thin, and my master definitely isn't him. Then, I'll rule out Shuiyue, my aunt from Bamboo Peak..."
"Because that Demon Sect fiend is a man."
"Finally, excluding Master Dao Xuan…"
"Besides that, the remaining four Head Disciples all have a high degree of suspicion!"
Dao Xuan, the True Person, nodded silently.
At this moment, Ji Changfeng spoke again, "Master, I have a plan. Why don't you secretly follow me and directly probe the Head Disciples?"
"With your strength, that Demon Sect spy won't be able to escape…"
Hearing this, Dao Xuan, the True Person, frowned.
He had originally wanted to refuse this plan, which disregarded the safety of his disciples, directly.
But on second thought, he was in the Taiqing Realm.
Couldn't he protect a single disciple within the Qingyun Sect?!
Dao Xuan, the True Person, pondered for a moment, then said, "Wait here for a moment."
As soon as he finished speaking.
His figure abruptly vanished from the quiet room.
Ji Changfeng looked back.
But didn't even see a shadow.
"So this is the Taiqing Realm?" Ji Changfeng sighed softly.
He waited patiently in the quiet room for a moment.
It wasn't long before Dao Xuan returned.
He was holding a sword in his hand, a sword that was neither metal nor stone, but rather seemed like both, ancient and mysterious.
"..." Ji Changfeng was dumbfounded.
The Zhu... Zhuxian Sword?!
Dao Xuan, the True Person, wore a calm expression. He casually held the Zhuxian Sword, his gaze falling on Ji Changfeng. He said,
"Nephew Changfeng, let's go."
"Today, this poor Daoist will cleanse the Qingyun Sect!"
Ji Changfeng calmly swallowed his saliva.
He stood up and bowed slightly towards Dao Xuan, saying, "Uncle Master, which uncle should we test first?"
Dao Xuan, the True Person, pondered for a moment and said, "Let's start with Junior Brother Cangsong."
Over the years, he had always trusted Cangsong, even to the point of handing over the authority of punishment to him. Therefore...
Dao Xuan, the True Person, felt certain that Cangsong was not the traitor.
He would find some comfort by starting with Junior Brother Cangsong...
