Chapter 2 The master is so scary.
When Wei Zhen arrived at the main hall of the peak, except for a few true disciples and two direct disciples, all the other ordinary disciples were there.
Hundreds of disciples stood up in unison.
Keep quiet.
Master Zhao Suxuan, who has a slender figure and unparalleled beauty, stands on the high platform above, with a calm and beautiful face, and stands with her hands behind her back.
The temperament is extraordinary.
Her expression was solemn, and at this moment her brows were slightly furrowed.
"Disciple greets Master!" Wei Zhen bowed, and after getting a nod from Zhao Suxuan, he walked to the position of a true disciple and stood there.
He just nodded and greeted a few true disciples next to him, then stood there quietly.
He has always been extremely low-key in Fengxian Sect, and hardly interacts with the sect's disciples. He is as invisible as a passerby.
Except for the active and often seen true disciple Lan Yue'e, he didn't know the names of the other true disciples, but he just felt vaguely familiar with them.
Not long after, Lan Yue'e, several true disciples, and the two direct disciples, one male and one female, arrived one after another.
"Disciple pays homage to Master!"
"Disciple has met Master!"
"..."
Zhao Suxuan nodded, looked around, and said:
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let me tell you something. I'm sure all of you disciples have seen the strange phenomenon that appeared above the sword vein today. The sect leader has ordered that no disciple should leak what happened today. Those who violate the order will be treated as traitors..."
The crime of treason is to be killed outright!
And it's the kind that destroys both the soul and the spirit.
Even before their souls are destroyed, they are still tortured, which is simply worse than death.
"Also, starting from today, all disciples will have to accept the questioning of conscience by the Reward and Punishment Sect. When someone comes over, you must cooperate well. No matter if you are an ordinary disciple or a true disciple or a direct disciple, you must accept the questioning of conscience, without exception. Therefore, during this period of time, no matter who you are, you must not leave the sword sect."
Questioning?
Everyone's expressions changed slightly.
To question one's conscience means to relax oneself and allow others to question one's soul. This is the method used by Reward and Punishment Peak to interrogate people.
"Master, why is this happening?" Yang Ming, one of the two major disciples, stepped forward and asked.
As a master in the early stage of Jindan, Yang Ming's prestige in the sword lineage is second only to the peak master Zhao Suxuan.
He is the real big brother!
Zhao Suxuan glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, and explained:
"The Sect Master suspects that what happened today was done by a demon clan spy lurking in our sect, so this is a necessary measure. You just need to cooperate and don't need to worry too much. However, this simple inquiry will not involve any deeper privacy of an individual."
A demon spy?
Everyone’s expressions changed drastically!
The powerful races in the Daluo Realm include not only humans, but also demons!
The two tribes are mortal enemies!
The place where the demons live is the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons in the North Continent and the Demon Dragon Sea in the South Continent!
The entire South Continent is connected to the Demon Dragon Sea. Therefore, the cultivators of the South Continent are resisting the sea monsters in the Demon Dragon Sea.
The demon cultivators have strong bodies, and are often more capable of conquering and fighting than human cultivators of the same level. The demons have also been secretly sending spies to lurk on the human side, making it extremely difficult to guard against and causing great suffering to the human race.
"Yes, Master." Direct disciple Yang Ming nodded.
But this answer still made everyone worried.
Even a simple self-examination may reveal many of one's own secrets. After all, everyone has their own hidden secrets, especially those who practice cultivation.
"During this period of time, everyone must remain vigilant. Now the demon clan's spies are infiltrating everywhere. Even within the sect, we must not let our guard down. We must always be vigilant and protect our own safety..."
Zhao Suxuan spoke a few more words, and finally said:
"Alright, Yang Ming, Zhou Xuelian, you two stay here, and the rest of the disciples can go."
"Yes, Master!"
"..."
Wei Zhen and others retreated.
Yang Ming and Zhou Xuelian who were left behind were the two direct disciples.
They all have reached the early stage of Golden Core cultivation.
The disciple with the highest level of cultivation in the entire sword lineage!
They were the eldest senior brother and eldest senior sister. Wei Zhen finally knew their names today.
But he didn't care.
Now he only cares about what happened to the two golden elixirs in his body. Why can't he be promoted to the Nascent Soul stage?
What the hell!
Wei Zhen flew to the cave on his sword, thinking of what his master Zhao Suxuan had said about the demon spies.
The matter of the demon clan spies was also a serious issue when he first crossed over, but it was not to the extent that the sect disciples were questioned. It was quiet for a few years, and it started again in the past two years. And today, the thundercloud phenomenon appeared over the sword vein, which could really be the work of the demon clan spies!
He deliberately acted like a ghost and caused unrest in Fengxian Sect, hoping to disintegrate Fengxian Sect from within.
Otherwise, how could thunderclouds appear out of nowhere?
"Junior Brother Wei!"
Before Wei Zhen reached the cave, he met another true disciple on the way.
This true disciple is named Zhang Yuan!
He is a cultivator who has reached the great perfection of foundation building.
Perfection means perfection in the realm level, and great perfection means perfection in the further realm cultivation, hence it is called great perfection!
Zhang Yuan’s cave was not far from Wei Zhen’s. The two were neighbors and had met each other several times, so Wei Zhen knew his name.
"Senior Brother Zhang!" Wei Zhen nodded in response.
Zhang Yuan approached with his sword, looking kind, and said, "There was a strange phenomenon in the sky today. Did Junior Brother Wei see it?"
Wei Zhen shook his head: "I was in seclusion in the cave at the time. I didn't know what happened until Junior Sister Lan informed me. When I looked up, I only saw a thundercloud dissipating above me."
Zhang Yuan frowned, a strange look flashed across his eyes, and then he said slowly:
"I see. Thank you, Junior Brother Wei. I'll go back first."
"You're welcome." Wei Zhen nodded, and saw Zhang Yuan flying his sword and disappearing before his eyes.
Wei Zhen felt a little puzzled. Without thinking much, he quickened his pace and soon returned to the cave.
After entering the cave, Wei Zhen activated the formation to block all prying eyes before walking to the bed.
I habitually looked at the pot of cactus on the bed, and then saw a line of words: [Master is so scary]
Wei Zhen: “…”
This cactus cannot be kept!
All he does all day long is say that he is terrible.
What's so scary about me?
That's right!
This is Wei Zhen’s golden finger for traveling through time!
A very useless cheat code, he can see plants talking.
Of course, it's not entirely useless.
It can be used when going out to look for medicinal herbs and treasure hunt.
The location of better medicinal herbs can often be obtained from nearby plants, making the search much easier.
But this is probably the greatest use of this golden finger.
Wei Zhen casually cast a rain spell, and after the cactus was moistened by the rain, another line of words appeared:
[Just now, a man secretly came to the master's cave and hid something. I don't know what it is. It's really curious. ]
Ok?
Wei Zhen was stunned for a moment and his face changed!
Did someone come to your cave just now?
He hurriedly checked the small image-retaining array that he had secretly set up. He hid the array in the dark so it would not attract anyone's attention and was used for surveillance.
It can keep surveillance images within twelve hours.
His own formation can stop all cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage, and one can enter the cave without destroying the formation restrictions of his cave. He must be a person with a high level of cultivation who can ignore ordinary formations.
Or he is a master of formations and knows how to avoid them.
No matter who these two are, they must have some big plans to sneak into my cave for no apparent reason.
The image formation appeared, and Wei Zhen quickly played the image records.
Soon his eyes narrowed.
Sure enough, he saw someone entering his cave, but the person's face was obscured by mist and he couldn't see his face clearly, but his figure looked quite tall.
This period of time was probably when I was in the main peak hall.
The man looked around, then took out something from his body and flew up. When he came down again, the thing in his hand was gone, and then the man left.
Wei Zhen's face changed immediately.
He looked up and quickly jumped up, then found a small vermilion box in the middle of the beam.
"What is this?" Wei Zhen frowned and looked at it in his hand for a moment.
Suddenly remembering the matter of the demon clan's spies, he used all the sealing techniques he knew in one breath and then threw them into the storage bag.
Who is this person?
Why hide this thing here?
