They shouted, "Welcome back, Faction Leader!"
The Head Steward's expression changed, and he immediately knelt down on one knee.
Faction Leader?
Not far away, a wine gourd floated over.
An old man with a rosy face and messy hair was sitting on top of it.
Behind the old man was a middle-aged woman, the Second Steward of the Greater One Faction.
They had gone to the Holy City to recruit new fighters to replenish the faction.
But because Su Yu and Yu Xiangwan had saved the group of captive fighters, they had changed their minds and returned empty-handed.
It was just in time to witness this scene.
The Faction Leader jumped down, the wine gourd shrinking to its normal size, hanging on his waist.
"What happened?" The Faction Leader looked at Su Yu and Yu Xiangwan, then at the Head Steward.
The Head Steward's gaze was evasive, but his expression was very certain. "Reporting to Faction Leader, Jiang Xuanzhong and the other Four Heroes of the Inner Sanctum were all betrayed and persecuted to death."
The Faction Leader was silent, letting out a sigh.
"Fate!"
"What exactly happened? Who betrayed them? "the Faction Leader asked.
Thus, the Head Steward and the golden armor each revealed the truth they had fabricated.
After hearing that, the Faction Leader did not speak for a long time. "Zhen Qing, what do you think?"
The Second Steward looked at the Head Steward, then at Su Yu and Yu Xiangwan. "Of course the Head Steward's words are more trustworthy."
The Head Steward had made countless contributions to the sect and was loyal and devoted.
There was no reason for him to lie.
The Faction Leader nodded. "That's right."
He then looked at Su Yu and Yu Xiangwan.
Facing the powerful Path Master at such a close distance, Su Yu felt a terrifying pressure.
It was as if he would be crushed in the next moment.
The Path Master did not even need to lift a finger to kill him.
Just a look was enough!
Just as Su Yu reached his limit and was about to summon the female corpse …
Suddenly, his surroundings became empty.
The Faction Leader turned around abruptly, slamming his palm onto the Head Steward's head.
The Head Steward was caught off guard, and half of his body was crushed.
At the same time, a realm pinned his body and soul to the ground in the courtyard, unable to move.
The sudden change caused an uproar among the crowd!
Zhen Qing was shocked. "Faction Leader, why did you attack the Head Steward? The traitors are those two outer disciples! "
Her mind was blank. She did not understand what had happened to the Sect Leader.
The golden armor was also stunned. There was still a smug smile on his face.
The Sect Leader's ruddy face was filled with killing intent. He said in a dry and hoarse voice, "It was this old man's fault. After so many years, I didn't even notice that there was a disloyal person beside me."
His words caused the golden armor and Zhen Qing to be shocked.
Could it be that the Chief Steward was a traitor?
Zhen Qing said, "Sect Leader, we need concrete evidence. You can't kill without thinking."
She really could not accept the fact that the Chief Manager was a traitor.
The Sect Leader waved his hand and sighed, "I once gave Jiang Xuanzhong two treasures. One is the purple jade pendant, and the other is the Soul Returning Insect. All of you know about the former, but only Jiang Xuanzhong and I know about the latter!"
What?
There's a second treasure?
No one knew about this!
"The Soul Returning Insect can revive a dead person in a short period of time and restore them to their peak state," the Sect Leader said slowly, "Therefore, Chong Yang was able to revive because of the Soul Returning Insect.
"However, the Chief Manager said that when he received Chong Yang, he was seriously injured and died!" The Sect Leader's eyes were cold.
It was obvious that Chong Yang was at his peak state after being revived.
How could he die from serious injuries?
There was only one answer!
The Chief Manager killed him!
Therefore, he concluded that the Chief Manager was the real traitor!
Furthermore, the golden-armored hall master was also a traitor!
Hearing this, Zhen Qing immediately understood the meaning behind it. Her gaze changed several times before finally turning cold.
"Chief Manager! You're too disappointing! " If the Sect Leader had not secretly given Jiang Xuanzhong a trick back then, he would not have known that there was such a dangerous traitor hidden in the Greater One Sect!
If he suddenly attacked one day, with his status and strength, he would definitely cause an unimaginable disaster.
Fortunately, the Chief Manager gave himself away and was completely subdued by the Sect Leader.
"Take him away and lock him up in the Heavenly Mine Prison," the Sect Leader ordered.
Zhen Qing nodded and immediately carried the sealed Chief Manager to the mine to personally lock him up.
At the same time, the Sect Leader looked at the golden-armored hall master with an indifferent expression. "Betraying the faction is a capital offense, let alone killing the Four Heroes of the Inner Sanctum!"
However, although the golden-armored hall master was in a desperate situation, he still took a great weapon from me.
"Don't come over!" He took out the purple jade pendant that originally belonged to Jiang Xuanzhong.
The jade pendant was filled with the terrifying power of an Underground Master.
Furthermore, the jade pendant was already in a state of activation. All the golden-armored hall master needed to do was to gently pinch it, and it would be activated.
By then, more than half of the Greater One Sect would be destroyed.
Apart from the Sect Leader who would still be safe and sound, everyone else, including Su Yu, would be blasted into dust.
However, the Sect Leader's expression was very calm.
"Are you using my things to threaten me?" The Sect Leader laughed silently.
He extended his hand and grabbed at the air.
The purple jade pendant, which had clearly been activated, strangely dimmed.
The golden-armored hall master's heart sank, his eyes filled with despair.
Thump —
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly. "Sect Leader, please have mercy, please have mercy, I was forced!"
The Sect Leader lightly shook his head. "Betrayal is betrayal, there is no such thing as forced or not forced."
However, the Sect Leader clearly wanted to obtain more useful information from him and did not immediately kill him.
Instead, he casually waved his hand and sealed all his limbs and bones.
Only then did he look at Su Yu and Yu Xiangwan.
"I've wronged the two of you!" The Sect Leader lightly smiled.
Su Yu and Yu Xiangwan's tokens flew out of their bodies and appeared in the Sect Leader's hands.
The Sect Leader swiped his finger across the token and returned it to them.
Yu Xiangwan took back her token and looked at it, surprised. "Seven stars disciple?"
He had only been a two-star disciple before.
In the blink of an eye, he had become a seven-star disciple, skipping five whole levels!
Su Yu looked at his own token. What made his pupils shrink was that he had jumped from an eight-star disciple to a Hall Master!
Yes, he had skipped the ranks of a nine-star disciple and a deputy Hall Master to become the new Hall Master.
"Sect Leader, this …" Su Yu felt that the reward this time was too great.
The Sect Leader lightly smiled. "You have made great contributions, this is what you should do! Let me see if there is a vacant position for you. "
Su Yu was overjoyed.
He did not care about the position. As long as his level was high enough, it was enough to borrow the Taiyi Clear Heavenly Mirror once.
"Thank you, Sect Leader!"
"Mm, bring this person to the mine and lock him up." The Sect Leader threw the golden-armored Hall Master on the ground for them to deal with.
He returned to the depths of the faction.
He had left the faction for too long, and the Sect Leader was in charge of the traitor. Who knew if there were other hidden dangers in the faction?
"Brother Su, you go, I will send him to the mine's heavenly prison." Yu Xiangwan gave Su Yu a congratulatory look.
Only he knew that Su Yu had taken all the risks to successfully reach the level of a Hall Master and use the Taiyi Clear Heavenly Mirror.
Now, with the help of the Sect Leader, he had finally reached the level of a Hall Master. Naturally, he needed money to fulfill his wish.
"Be careful," Su Yu warned.
Yu Xiangwan laughed. "What's so dangerous about sending a sealed cripple?"
As she spoke, she picked up the golden-armored Hall Master and sent him to the mine.
Su Yu frowned.
For some reason, he had a faint sense of uneasiness.
But where did this sense of uneasiness come from?
The Great Master and the golden-armored Hall Master had been suppressed. Could there be other unknown dangers?
There shouldn't be, right?
Su Yu opened his mouth but did not say anything in the end.
Because he was also unsure of the source of the uneasiness.
"I can't stay in the Taiyi Sect any longer," Su Yu said to himself.
After using the Taiyi Clear Heavenly Mirror, he would ask Yu Xiangwan if she wanted to leave with him.
With that in mind, he hurried to the core area of the faction, the Secret Chamber.
All confidential matters were completed in this chamber.
The Taiyi Clear Heavenly Mirror was in the Secret Chamber, guarded by a formation personally set by the Sect Leader. It was impossible for ordinary people to break in.
He came to the Secret Chamber, showed his token to the Hall Master, and successfully entered.
He also saw the Taiyi Clear Heavenly Mirror that he had dreamed of.
It was an existence that looked like a puppet that reflected light.
The surface of its body seemed to have countless mirrors, reflecting the shadows of all things in the universe.
Strangely, the surrounding scenery was not reflected in the slightest.
"I want to find the specific location of the Sinful Lady Palace." Su Yu was looking forward to it.
The surface of the Taiyi Clear Heavenly Mirror flickered with light, and the reflections flickered continuously, as if it was trying its best to search for information about the Sinful Lady Palace.
Two hours passed.
Four hours passed.
The Taiyi Clear Heavenly Mirror was still spinning.
"It seems that the information you are looking for is very limited. That's why it took you so long," the Secret Chamber Master comforted him.
As he was speaking …
The Taiyi Clear Heavenly Mirror suddenly stopped with a ding.
The same image was reflected on its whole body.
It was a dark world, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring.
In the world, coffins were neatly arranged, and the smell of death was everywhere.
A blood-red coffin could be faintly seen lying in the center of the dark world.
The coffin was faintly exuding a terrifying aura.
It was as if a giant monster that could swallow the sky was lying inside, and anyone could break out of the coffin and devour the world.
On the other side of the blood-red coffin, a dilapidated palace was faintly visible, hanging on the edge of the dark world, on the verge of collapse.
Then, the image stopped abruptly.
"What is that place?" Su Yu's breathing became slightly rapid.
That dilapidated palace was the Sinful Lady Palace!
But what kind of place was that dark world?
What did so many coffins signify?
What was the powerful creature in the blood-red coffin?
Regarding this, the Secret Chamber Master pondered and said, "Maybe the people of the demonic faction will know."
The Secret Chamber Master was in charge of the most confidential information in the faction, so he had an unimaginable understanding of all things in the universe.
"Why do you say so?" Su Yu asked.
The Secret Chamber Master waved his finger, and the image rewound to the middle of the scene.
"Look at those coffins, they all have the same pattern."
Su Yu looked carefully, and the pattern was the same.
