Journey to the West: After the Great Sage listened to the advice, the three realms were all confused

Of course, Sun Wukong readily promised Taiyi Zhenren his help in a few days, and hinted to Li Ruyan and the others to leave quickly.

Obviously, he didn't intend to involve Taiyi Zhenren.

The reason is very simple. It is not a good idea to let the three religions get involved in this matter.

Although Taiyi Zhenren often went to Kongyun City, she still had to take her identity as a disciple of the Chan Sect into consideration.

Seeing that most people had left, Taiyi Zhenren had no plans to stay here any longer.

But before she left, she seemed to have thought of something and said uncertainly: "You are not deliberately making up an excuse to fool me, are you?"

Sun Wukong pretended not to understand what Taiyi Zhenren was saying and looked back with confusion on his face.

Looking at Sun Wukong who was obviously pretending to be stupid, Taiyi Zhenren gritted his teeth and said: Forget it, this guy didn't say anything, probably because he was afraid of making things difficult for her.

Feeling indignant, Taiyi Zhenren took several jars of wine from Sun Wukong and left arrogantly.

It is called sponsorship.

Sun Wukong was helpless, but he also knew Taiyi Zhenren's character. After thinking about it, he decided to go with her.

After sending Taiyi Zhenren away, Sun Wukong went out with Feng Hou and headed to the destination according to the route map with Li Ruyan and others.

I have to say, it’s different with a map.

It only took about an hour for Sun Wukong and the group of monks behind him to arrive at the stronghold where the mastermind was hiding.

As soon as I set foot here, I felt a strong sense of incongruity.

Everyone looked at each other and finally decided to sneak in.

As he entered, the sense of disharmony that flashed through Sun Wukong's mind became stronger and stronger.

Until the end, looking at the messy cave, he finally understood.

At this moment, he finally understood where the uneasy feeling that had been lingering in his heart came from.

It's too quiet here, and it doesn't have the atmosphere of a normal base at all.

This was indeed proven later.

The stronghold was empty and everything inside had disappeared without a trace.

"How could this happen? Did they get the news in advance and escape?" Feng Hou looked at the situation at the scene with a confused look on his face and expressed his speculation.

"We are operating in secret, how could they receive the news in advance?" Li Ruyan frowned and spoke coldly.

The pent-up fire in her heart continued to accumulate, waiting for a chance to burst out.

"Could it be that there is a traitor in our operation?" Li Ruxing's thoughts were even more extreme.

His eyes looked at everyone present and finally fell on Feng Hou.

Feng Hou, who didn't react at first, was still wondering who among their group might be the accomplice.

Unexpectedly, as Li Ruxing looked over here, the others also seemed to realize something and turned their gazes over here.

Feng Hou was immediately furious: "What do you mean? Do you suspect that I'm the one who tipped you off? Or do you suspect that I'm deliberately misleading you?"

Li Ruxing looked at Feng Hou expressionlessly: "We all know each other well, and it's absolutely impossible for us to do such a thing! So, who among us might be the accomplice? It goes without saying!"

"You..." Feng Hou's eyes widened in anger.

What kind of bandit logic is this?

"Then I would say it was you who deliberately delayed and missed the opportunity!" Feng Hou cursed.

Just as the two groups were about to fight, Sun Wukong on the other side had already searched every possible place in the cave.

Naturally, there are no more valuable clues in this stronghold.

But there are gains, too.

Sun Wukong looked at the paper placed in the most conspicuous place, waved his hand, and took it in his hand.

There was a line of words written on the paper: You have been searching for so long, perhaps you are also curious about the recipe of the elixir, and now you have got what you wished for.

After Sun Wukong finished reading the above content, it disappeared.

"What is this? There are words on the back!" Feng Hou paid attention to the situation on Sun Wukong's side and asked curiously.

After hearing this, Sun Wukong turned over the back of the paper, and sure enough, there was a pill recipe densely written on it.

Just looking at the materials recorded on the recipe made Sun Wukong dizzy.

"My lord, what's wrong with you?" Feng Hou saw Sun Wukong staggering as if he was about to faint, so he ran over and supported him.

Sun Wukong shook his head, "Nothing."

After recovering from his shock, Sun Wukong sneered. It turned out that the recipe for the elixir was specially cast with a spell. No matter who it was, they would not be able to forget the contents after just one look at it.

Even without this recipe now, Sun Wukong could immediately write down its contents.

Sun Wukong briefly explained the recipe: "This is the recipe for the elixir they want to make."

"They may have received the news in advance, but for some reason they deliberately left this thing here."

Everyone gasped when they heard this. They just felt that the person behind this was too arrogant.

He actually left the recipe here on purpose for them to check. Was it a provocation?

"This elixir recipe is really weird. It's better to destroy it, so that it won't remain in the world and harm people." Sun Wukong said with his eyes lowered.

This move was naturally unanimously recognized by everyone.

"It's a pity that we couldn't catch the mastermind behind this!" Feng Hou gritted his teeth.

If he succeeds this time and finds the true identity of the mastermind, he can return to the Western Church directly.

But this happened, and now I don’t know how long it will take.

Li Ruyan forced herself to remain calm and said seriously, "But this isn't bad news."

"At least we know that the enemy may have obtained intelligence in a way that we are not aware of."

"We have to be more careful from now on."

Li Ruxing immediately followed suit and nodded in agreement:

"My sister is right. We must be more careful from now on to prevent similar situations from happening again."

Feng Hou also spoke to comfort him: "That's right, it doesn't work this time, but next time we will definitely be able to catch the mastermind behind this."

The operation ended in a whimper. Although everyone was unwilling to accept it, they still suppressed their emotions and returned to Kongyun City.

Compared with everyone's obvious disappointment, Sun Wukong's mood was very stable. After all, this failure was already doomed.

I had secretly looked through the timeline before and got quite a lot of information.

While failure in the short term can be frustrating, it can also be a good thing in the long run.

Taiyi Zhenren, who had gotten a pot of wine from nowhere, half leaned against the door and asked the people who were not in high spirits with a smile:

"Hey, where have you been? I don't look very interested."

Sun Wukong replied to Taiyi Zhenren with a smile: "The children lost a little game and felt embarrassed, so they ended up like this."
