Junior sister took first place again

Chapter 353 Internal Investigation

Inside the Xuanling Sect, Immortal Master Jiyun's brow furrowed. He had just received a second message from Cheng Yan, delivered by a spirit crane. This crane, transparent and slightly purple, flew into the meeting room at lightning speed, heading straight for the Sect Master.

Immortal Master Jiyun reached out to catch the crane, and his expression became even more solemn as he scanned it with his spiritual sense. Cheng Yan mentioned in the crane that after her investigation, she found that the danger she faced might be related to a high-ranking person in the sect.

This news was like a bolt from the blue, making everyone present feel unprecedented pressure.

"Master, the message from Junior Brother Cheng Yan mentioned that the crisis may be related to a high-ranking person within the sect." An elder's voice was filled with a hint of worry.

Immortal Master Jiyun's brows were furrowed, and his eyes revealed a trace of solemnity: "This matter is of no small importance. We must act immediately and find out the truth."

At this moment, representatives from the Zhong and Cheng families of Liuyun City suddenly arrived and urgently requested to see the sect leader.

Immortal Master Jiyun immediately ordered his disciples to lead them into the conference room.

Zhongli and Cheng Xi entered the meeting room, their faces tinged with anxiety. Zhongli stepped forward and bowed respectfully, "Master Jiyun, we are here because our two families have recently discovered some unusual circumstances."

Cheng Xi also nodded in agreement: "Yes, Sect Master, we have noticed some signs of instability within the family, and we suspect that someone may be trying to harm us."

Immortal Master Jiyun's expression grew even more solemn, and he immediately inquired about the specifics of the situation. "We've noticed some disciples within our family are behaving strangely; they seem to be under some sort of control," Zhongli's voice tinged with worry.

Cheng Xi also added: "Moreover, we discovered that these disciples have been in contact with some unknown forces. We suspect there may be a bigger conspiracy behind this."

A cold light flashed in the eyes of Immortal Jiyun. He immediately ordered Du Kang to strengthen the protection of the Zhong and Cheng families and begin to investigate these abnormal situations.

"Everyone, A Yan's message shows that the threat we face may come from within the sect." The voice of Immortal Master Jiyun echoed in the conference hall. He showed Cheng Yan's discovery to the leaders present.

True Lord Zishuang frowned and said in a deep voice, "Master, if Junior-Martial Brother Cheng Yan's suspicions are true, then we must take immediate action and investigate the sect to identify any possible traitors."

Peak Master Li Huan also nodded in agreement: "Yes, Sect Master, we must act immediately. We cannot let the traitors within the sect destroy our defenses."

Du Kang and Elder Chen were also present. After listening to everyone's words, Elder Chen suddenly stood up and suggested, "Master Jiyun, since many clues point to high-ranking individuals within your sect, I think you should confirm whether the Grand Masters sent out by your sect are now fulfilling their duties."

Everyone looked at Elder Chen, who stood there and bowed calmly.

Immortal Jiyun pondered for a moment and nodded, agreeing with Elder Chen's suggestion. "Elder Chen, you're right. We must investigate every aspect of this to ensure nothing is left out."

He swept his gaze over every elder and chief present, his tone firm and forceful, "I will personally confirm the whereabouts of all elders. At the same time, the Mist Pavilion will be responsible for monitoring every move within the sect, and no suspicious behavior will be overlooked."

True Lord Zishuang stood up and bowed, saying, "Master, I am willing to lead the disciples of Baiqi Peak to conduct a secret investigation within the sect to ensure that our actions will not be detected by the enemy."

A hint of determination flashed through Peak Master Li Huan's eyes. "Master, the disciples of Divine Medicine Peak are on standby at all times. We will fully cooperate with the Shadow Hall's operations to ensure the safety of the sect."

Immortal Master Jiyun nodded, pleased with the trust and support of the two abbots. "Very good, True Lord Zishuang and Peak Master Lihuan, each of you will select capable disciples to form a secret investigation team. Be sure to uncover the truth without causing panic."

He paused and continued, "At the same time, we need to strengthen the protection of the Zhong and Cheng families in Liuyun City. Elder Du, I leave this matter to you."

Du Kang accepted the order, a gleam in his eyes. "Don't worry, Sect Master. The sentries of the Misty Pavilion are the elite of the elite. We will ensure the safety of the Zhong and Cheng families, and we will also closely monitor the every move of those abnormal disciples."

Zhongli and Cheng Xi looked at each other. They admired Immortal Jiyun's quick response and decisive decision.

"Master Jiyun, our two families will fully cooperate with the sect's actions and jointly deal with this crisis." Zhongli said solemnly.

Cheng Xi also added: "Yes, Sect Master, our family will also conduct a self-inspection. If we find any suspicious people, we will immediately notify the sect."

Immortal Master Jiyun nodded, his eyes revealing a hint of determination: "Okay, then we will act separately. Remember, this action is related to the life and death of the sect, we must be cautious and not make any mistakes." Everyone in the conference hall accepted the order, their eyes revealing a hint of solemnity and determination.

They knew this crisis was of grave importance; if they weren't careful, the entire sect could be plunged into irretrievable ruin. As the discussion in the meeting hall concluded, everyone began to act separately.

True Lord Zishuang and Peak Master Li Huan led their disciples in a silent, covert investigation within the sect. They used various covert methods to monitor every corner of the sect, ensuring that no suspicious activity escaped their notice.

Elder Du led the disciples of the Misty Pavilion to strengthen the protection of the Zhong and Cheng families. Like ghosts, they silently guarded the two families, and any suspicious person who tried to approach would be quickly subdued by them.

At the same time, Immortal Master Jiyun also began to check the whereabouts and mission reports of all the Grandmasters. His eyes revealed a hint of fatigue, but more of determination and resolve.

He knew that the resolution of this crisis was related to the future of the entire sect. Within the sect, a silent battle was quietly unfolding.

True Lord Zishuang and Peak Master Li Huan's disciples, like hunters, searched for possible traitors. Using every possible means, they meticulously searched the sect's library, the training grounds, the residences of disciples and elders, searching every possible spot for clues.

Outside the sect, Elder Chen and the disciples of the Shadow Hall were also closely monitoring the Zhong and Cheng families' every move. Like guardian angels, they protected the safety of both families, and any suspicious individuals who attempted to approach would be quickly subdued.

As time went on, the sect's internal investigation gradually made progress. True Lord Zishuang and Peak Master Li Huan's disciples discovered some unusual clues.

They discovered that some disciples' behavior was indeed abnormal. They seemed to be in secret contact with some unknown forces. Moreover, the identities of these disciples were not low, and some were even high-ranking people in the sect.

This news made Immortal Jiyun's expression even more solemn. He knew that this crisis was more serious than he had imagined.

He immediately summoned True Lord Zishuang, Peak Master Li Huan, Elder Du and others to discuss countermeasures.

"Everyone, the clues we've discovered indicate that this crisis is indeed related to someone high up within the sect." Immortal Master Jiyun's voice was heavy with emotion. "We must act immediately and capture these traitors."

True Lord Zishuang frowned and said in a deep voice, "Master, these traitors are of high status. We must proceed with caution to avoid causing unnecessary panic." Peak Master Li Huan nodded in agreement, "Yes, Master. We must formulate a thorough plan to ensure success."

Elder Du pondered for a moment and offered a suggestion: "Master, can we take advantage of these traitors' actions to set a trap and capture them all?"

Immortal Master Jiyun nodded and said, "Elder Du's suggestion is very good. We can take advantage of the actions of these traitors and set a trap to catch them all in one fell swoop."

He paused and continued, "Zishhuang Zhenjun and Lihuan Peak Master, you continue to monitor the actions of these traitors. At the same time, I will personally set the trap to ensure success."

True Lord Zishuang and Peak Master Li Huan accepted the order, their eyes revealing a hint of firmness and determination.

They knew that this operation was related to the life and death of the sect, so they had to be cautious and not make any mistakes.

As the plan was formulated, the internal battle of the sect gradually reached its climax. Zishuang Zhenjun and Li Huanfengzhu's disciples continued to monitor the actions of the traitors. At the same time, Jiyun Xianzun was secretly setting traps, waiting for the traitors to fall into his trap.

Outside the sect, Elder Chen of the Bishui Sect and the disciples of the Shadow Hall were also closely monitoring the Zhong and Cheng families' every move. Like guardian angels, they protected the safety of the two families, and any suspicious individuals who tried to approach would be quickly subdued.

As time went on, the traitors within the sect gradually revealed their true colors. They secretly contacted unknown forces, tried to undermine the sect's defenses, and even attempted to assassinate the sect's top leaders.

However, they did not know that all this was under the control of Immortal Master Jiyun. He used the actions of these traitors to set traps one after another, waiting for them to fall into his trap.

Jiyun Immortal Venerable knew that the whereabouts and loyalty of the Grand Masters were crucial to the safety of the sect. He decided to personally check on the Grand Masters one by one.

He first contacted all the grand masters in the sect, contacted them through the communication spirit stone, and asked about their mission progress and current location.

Most of the Grand Masters responded quickly to the message from Immortal Master Jiyun. They reported their missions in detail and expressed their loyalty to the sect.

However, when Immortal Master Jiyun tried to contact True Lord Xuansu, he found that he could not get through to his message no matter what. Immortal Master Jiyun frowned, and a foreboding premonition welled up in his heart.

Xuansu Zhenjun's combat power is one of the best in the sect. He is very powerful and always acts low-key, but is extremely loyal.

His loss of contact made Immortal Master Jiyun feel a little uneasy. "Master, is there any news from Xuansu?" After learning about the situation, True Lord Zishuang immediately came to inquire.

Immortal Master Jiyun shook his head and said in a deep voice, "No, there is no response from the communication spirit stone. This is very abnormal."

Peak Master Li Huan also sensed the seriousness of the situation. She suggested, "Sect Master, why don't I personally go to the location that True Lord Xuan Su last reported and see if I can find any trace of him."

Immortal Master Jiyun pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Alright, Junior Sister, you lead a few capable disciples and proceed with caution. Report any findings immediately."

Peak Master Li Huan received the order and immediately selected several elite disciples from Shen Yao Peak and prepared to set off. They carried their sect's unique tracking magic tools, hoping to find clues about Master Xuan Su.

Meanwhile, True Lord Xuansu was rapidly flying back to the abyss. He was filled with anxiety, knowing that if his whereabouts were exposed, the sect would track him down very quickly.

He originally used the excuse of being injured and in seclusion to secretly leave the abyss, but he did not expect that the crisis within the sect would come so quickly.

He knew in his heart that his actions had aroused the suspicion of the sect leader. If he could not return to the abyss in time, he was afraid that everything would be irreversible.

He increased his speed, shuttling between the towering mountains and steep cliffs, trying to return to the abyss in the shortest possible time. However, just as True Lord Xuansu was flying rapidly, the disciples led by Peak Master Li Huan also embarked on a journey to find him.

They used tracking magic tools to search along the possible route of Xuansu Zhenjun. These disciples were the elites of Shenyao Peak and had rich experience in tracking and reconnaissance.

As time went by, Peak Master Li Huan and her disciples gradually approached the location last reported by True Lord Xuan Su. They found some clues that indicated True Lord Xuan Su had indeed been there.

Peak Master Li Huan ordered his disciples to search carefully, leaving no clues unturned. Just then, a disciple discovered some unusual spiritual fluctuations, which were extremely similar to the aura of True Lord Xuan Su's technique.

Peak Master Li Huan immediately led his disciples to track the wave, eventually discovering True Lord Xuansu in a secluded valley. True Lord Xuansu was sitting on a boulder in the valley, seemingly recuperating.

A flash of panic crossed his eyes when he saw Peak Master Li Huan and his disciples arrive, but he quickly regained his composure. "Peak Master Li Huan, why are you here?" True Lord Xuan Su asked with feigned composure.

Peak Master Li Huan looked directly into True Monarch Xuansu's eyes and said in a deep voice, "True Monarch Xuansu, the Sect Master has tried to contact you many times, but you haven't responded. We're worried about your safety, so we've come all the way here to look for you."

Xuan Su Zhenjun's heart tightened. He knew his lie had been exposed, but he still tried to defend himself: "I was accidentally injured while practicing in seclusion, so I didn't respond to the sect master's message in time."

Peak Master Li Huan was not convinced. She said coldly, "True Lord Xuansu, your whereabouts are too suspicious. We must bring you back to the sect and explain everything to the sect master."
