Chapter 1749: The Traitor
Chapter 1749: The Traitor
But there is no need to judge who is lying now.
Feng Daozi thought for a while and said:
“Now things are actually very simple.”
"In the next twenty years or so, Sun, Moon and Star will only have to do two things."
"One is to train the betrayer and let him advance to the ninth rank at the fastest speed."
"Second, we will take action against Zhou Yi and suppress his growth."
"As long as we accomplish one of these two things, the Sun, Moon, and Stars can all achieve their goals, and we will usher in the end."
At this point Feng Daozi and Yun Chen looked at Xie Su at the same time, because what Xie Su was about to do just now seemed to be no different from the second thing that Riyuexing was about to do.
Xie Su's face changed, and he quickly explained: "I admit that I did want to suppress Zhou Yi before, but my starting point was for the development of Wu Pavilion. I didn't know about the Sun, Moon and Star incident at all. If I knew, I wouldn't have time to protect Zhou Yi, so how could I suppress him?"
"Even if I am a traitor, if I want to attack Zhou Yi, I must do it secretly. I can't do it so loudly and let everyone in the world know about it."
Yun Chen thought for a moment and said, "That does make sense. This is no different from directly exposing my identity as a traitor."
Before Xie Su could breathe a sigh of relief, Yun Chen's voice sounded again: "But there is also the possibility of a counter-mentality."
Xie Su: “…”
Xie Su thought about it and stopped explaining.
Because he knows that this thing cannot be explained clearly, and explanation may be a cover-up, and the more he says, the more mistakes he makes.
Feng Daozi took a deep look at Xie Su and continued, "And we have to do two things."
"The first thing is to ensure Zhou Yi's safety and allow him to grow as quickly as possible, so that he can reach the level where he can preside over the sealing and complete the sealing mission."
"The second is to find the betrayer."
Yun Chen said subconsciously: "Zhou Yi is Chunyan's man, so we have the responsibility and obligation to help Zhou Yi grow smoothly. To this end, we will focus all our resources on training him, and I will always be there to protect his safety."
Xie Su seized the opportunity and said, "Anyone could be a traitor. How can you prove your innocence? So your personal presence is probably not for protection, but to make it easier to attack."
"I think there is no one more suitable than you to protect Zhou Yi. With you here, even if all the ninth-rank masters in the world rebel, they will not have a chance to kill Zhou Yi."
Yun Chen was slightly stunned but did not refute. Instead, he said, "I am a little abrupt. Pavilion Master Xie, what you said makes sense. So, Senior, do you want us to find the traitor?"
Feng Daozi nodded and said, "With me here, no one can hurt Zhou Yi unless the Sun, Moon and Star break the seal."
"So you don't need to worry about Zhou Yi. Your task now is to give me a report on the investigation of all the ninth-grade masters in the world, including yourself and the other party."
"This report includes, but is not limited to, the life story of this ninth-rank master, the percentage of divinity in his humanity, the suspicion that he is a traitor, and all kinds of information you think is useful, as well as useless information. The more detailed, the better."
"The time limit is after the Qi vortex ends."
The Qi vortex will end in three months at most. It seems that time is very tight, but in fact, as Xie Su said before, he knows exactly who in the entire martial arts world has been promoted to the seventh level.
This is even more true for the ninth rank.
The official must also have similar information.
During this period of time, we are just organizing information for them. Most of the information does not require investigation and is ready-made.
Xie Su and Yun Chen nodded at the same time:
"Make sure to complete the mission."
Xie Su thought for a moment and said, "Do we need to notify other ninth-rank masters to conduct a similar investigation?"
"For example, the Grand Master of Qi Mansion must have it too."
Feng Daozi shook his head and said:
"No need, just the two of you can do this. And the secrets I just told you, you should know who can say what and who can't say it."
The two men nodded. They understood the seriousness of the matter. In any case, they could not let too many people know these secrets. It was not a question of whether to make it public or not.
But even for those ninth-grade masters, they need some time to digest it. It would be a devastating blow to ordinary people, and even low-grade masters might not be able to withstand it.
If it were to be made public, it would inevitably cause chaos in the world, and panic would spread wildly. By then, the world would probably be doomed before the seal of the sun, moon, and stars could be unsealed.
The three of them briefly chatted about the details, and then Xie Su and Yun Chen left with heavy hearts.
Knowing too many secrets that could change their worldview, even for ninth-grade masters, it would take some time for them to completely calm down.
Not long after the two of them left, an old man with a cane appeared in front of the thatched cottage. It was Elder Tianlong of the Wu Pavilion. He looked at Feng Daozi and asked:
"Grandfather, how are they?"
"Can we rule it out first?"
Feng Daozi said: "They didn't reveal too many flaws. As traitors, they dared to appear in front of me. They need extremely strong psychological qualities."
"Come act with me."
“Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility of a counter-mentality.”
Elder Tianlong nodded. None of the ninth-grade masters were simple. Acting was too easy for them.
Feng Daozi asked casually, "Are there any suspicious points about the three ninth-rank masters of your Wu Pavilion?"
Elder Tianlong replied: "Ever since the last time the true qi was revived, you said that a ninth-rank traitor had appeared. I have been thinking about whether there might be a traitor among the three ninth-ranks in the Wu Pavilion."
"Honestly speaking, in my view, they may not be traitors. There is a possibility that they are traitors. Although it sounds nonsense, this is what I think at the moment."
"It's too difficult to judge directly. After all, if you make a mistake, the consequences will be too serious."
“We need to be cautious, careful, and cautious again.”
Feng Daozi nodded: "It is right to have such an idea. At present, any ninth-rank person cannot be ruled out of dislike. Even Mo Yuan, I have watched him grow up since he was a child. I can only say that the probability that he is a traitor is extremely low, but it cannot be completely removed at present. There is a theoretical possibility that he is a traitor."
Elder Tianlong's eyes were filled with surprise. He didn't expect Feng Daozi to be so cautious that he didn't even rule out Mo Yuan.
The reason why they seemed to trust him was probably mainly because he was still an eighth-rank official, otherwise he would also be on the suspect list. However, he did not have a bad feeling about this.
Because in this matter, no matter how cautious Feng Daozi is, it cannot be too much. This is not for personal gain, but for the sake of the entire plane. If he lets the traitor go because of emotional reasons, the consequence will be the destruction of the entire plane.
Therefore, Feng Daozi was right to be "suspicious".
"Oh, by the way, ancestor, there is one thing I have always been curious about." Elder Tianlong suddenly thought of something and asked curiously, "That is, how can we be sure that there must be only one traitor? If more than one ninth-rank betrayed, wouldn't it be very troublesome?"
Feng Daozi said: "There must be more than one traitor."
"Like the Xingjun's Xingchen Society, the six servants of the Moon God are all traitors, but there is only one traitor in the ninth rank."
"To be precise, there is only one ninth-rank traitor who knows their exact plan."
