"In other words, there's a traitor in Nangong City?" Xing Tian laughed.
It had to be said that in the Bright Curse World, no matter what kind of power it was, they would try to recruit outsiders and turn them into their own force. In this way, the good and the bad were mixed together, and it was not strange for a traitor to sneak in. It was easy to understand.
If a force wanted to infiltrate another force, the best way was to start from the outsiders. Because their background was too far away, it was impossible to investigate carefully. As long as they stayed for decades or centuries, there would naturally be trust between them, and there would not be too much suspicion.
And this was the most crucial point. When there were too many outsiders, it was impossible to guard against them all the time. If they guarded against them like how they guarded against thieves, it was hard to say when something big would happen, or it would chill people's hearts.
Therefore, as long as there was no evidence in their hands, everyone would turn a blind eye to it. In the end, they would just take what they wanted.
The Bright Curse World's model naturally had its problems, but the advantages outweighed the disadvantages. Therefore, those disadvantages were perfectly covered up, and no one felt that there was anything wrong.
Xiao Yang nodded and said, "That's true."
"That's easy to say. When the time comes, we just need to inform Nangong Yu, and we can leave." Xing Tian said casually.
Xiao Yang did not say anything. If only things were that simple.
Even if he told Nangong Yu this news, it was another matter whether she would believe it or not.
It was either they did not interfere in this matter, or once they did, they naturally had to do it well.
Moreover, because of the Second Young Master, there was a grudge between them and Ximen City. If they could borrow Nangong Cheng's hand to knock them down, it seemed to be a good choice.
However, it wasn't that easy to put it into practice.
The Second Young Master was the most doted son of the Ximen Family Head, but the information he knew was very limited. Therefore, Xiao Yang could not unravel everything in a short time.
In this way, the one with a headache was still Xiao Yang. No matter how one looked at it, it was not easy to break out of this situation.
Xiao Yang smiled bitterly and helplessly. It seemed that it was impossible to resolve this matter peacefully.
After that, Xiao Yang withdrew the Stately Painting from his bosom and passed it to Xiaoman. He said, "If you notice that the situation isn't right, then hide in it."
Lil 'Man took the Stately Painting timidly, his eyes full of doubt.
She also knew that her Young Master's seriousness meant that the following matter would be very risky. If she didn't avoid it, her life might be in danger.
Of course, in Xiao Yang's opinion, Lil 'Man's life was the most important, and nothing could go wrong. With the Stately Painting by his side, he would be safer.
The corner of Xing Tian's eyes twitched as he watched from the side. He had naturally witnessed the miraculous effects of the Mountain River Map.
Such a treasure could be said to be an unparalleled life-saving treasure. Moreover, the reason why he was traveling with Xiao Yang was because of this. It was equivalent to having an extra route of retreat.
The safest route of retreat was given to Lil 'Man. From this, one could see how much Xiao Yang valued and trusted her.
Then, Xiao Yang whispered the method of using the Stately Painting to Lil 'Man.
Xing Tian acted like a gentleman and turned around to leave.
After all, the chants of the Stately Painting could not be known by outsiders. Otherwise, the treasure would not be so useful.
In this aspect, Xing Tian knew his limits. He would naturally tell him what he should know. If he shouldn't know, then he would stay away and not listen to a single word.
This feeling made Xing Tian feel very comfortable. He even had the illusion that he had become a little more like a human, and not a beast that drank raw meat and drank blood.
Thinking about this, Xing Tian bitterly smiled helplessly.
Being a human was truly tiring. There were so many rules and regulations that bound him.
As for those who did not follow the rules, being a human was just a title.
Lil 'Man's talent was also very good. Adding on the fact that she was following Xiao Yang, the Stately Painting was also a little familiar with it. In less than half an incense's time, she had mastered it. It was naturally difficult to use the treasures in the painting, but it was not a problem for her to enter and leave freely.
After planning, the three of them quickly headed to the place where Nangong City could possibly be stationed.
That place was labeled as the Cloud Valley.
The Cloud Valley was also the place where the Nangong Family started. The almighty of the Nangong Family had previously found a great opportunity in the Cloud Valley. Hence, after leaving, their cultivation had increased by leaps and bounds. Then, they occupied Nangong City and formed its embryonic form.
Of course, to be able to bring Nangong City to greater heights, it was through the efforts of several generations that it became the current situation.
In the Bright Incantation World, many things were deeply rooted. It was common for a genius to appear out of nowhere. However, to create a powerful force with the strength of a single person was almost impossible.
Even if you were strong, you could only be strong for a short period of time. Before long, as long as other forces used some tricks, you could easily fall apart.
Hence, in the past tens of thousands of years, the saying of the Two Sects, Three Clans, and Four Cities had never changed.
Along the way, they would also encounter some cultivators. However, they did not bother with each other. After all, there were many people looking for opportunities in the Secret Realm. As long as no one took the initiative to cause trouble, they would go their own way and not disturb each other.
Furthermore, the time to look for opportunities was the most important. Everyone would not fight each other for no reason and fight until their heads bled.
Otherwise, when the time came and they missed the real opportunity, that would be the most unacceptable thing.
Along the way, Lil 'Man remained silent. However, in her heart, she was constantly familiarizing herself with the usage of the Chaotic Origin Mysterious Spear and the Stately Painting.
After all, these two were supreme-grade spiritual weapons. If they were used properly, the power that could be unleashed would be extraordinary.
Lil 'Man did not know how great the risk would be next. However, she knew very well that if she could help share the young master's burden, that would be the best.
After some time, they followed the mark on the map and arrived at the outskirts of the Cloud Valley.
Xiao Yang was not in a hurry to enter. Instead, he stopped in his tracks and took out three human skin masks and put them on.
Looking at the human skin masks, Xing Tian's lips curled up in disdain.
However, on second thought, if they were to walk in like this, it would be inevitable for them to cause some trouble.
They had some conflicts with Ximen City. It was not impossible for them to use this as an excuse to make things difficult for Nangong City.
"Being so cautious even when returning a favor, no one else can do this." Xing Tian let out a bitter laugh helplessly and said.
Xiao Yang also shook his head helplessly. It was better to be safe.
