Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

"Master, my elder brother... he wasn't killed by your companions, was he?"

Although Mei Sanshi's soul was completely controlled by Chu Yunfan.

However, Mei III's original memories and emotions are still intact.

That's why Mei III asked this question.

Chu Yunfan wasn't too surprised by this and replied directly:

"Your elder brother was already dead before we came to Succubus City. How could we have killed him!"

Upon hearing Chu Yunfan's answer, Mei Sanshi immediately recalled the time when he met Chu Yunfan; it was indeed the day after his elder brother died.

Immediately, Mei San Shi breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking towards the door.

After Mei Sanshi left, Chu Yunfan suddenly looked at Shen Muyan and asked:

"Junior Sister Shen, you said before that you had just arrived at the ambush location and hadn't even started your operation when you were ambushed and captured by powerful demons."

Didn't you ever suspect that there was a traitor in the War Emperor Squad?

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence!

Upon hearing Chu Yunfan's words, Shen Muyan's expression immediately became complicated, and she stared intently into Chu Yunfan's eyes.

After staring at each other for a long while, Shen Muyan hesitated before speaking.

"Senior Brother Yunfan, actually, we all suspected before that you were the traitor!"

"what?"

Upon hearing Shen Muyan's words, Chu Yunfan was immediately stunned.

But then he realized what he had done and gave a wry smile.

"That's right. I was the only one who didn't participate in the operation, and then the four of you were ambushed."

If it were me, I would also suspect that the person who didn't come was a traitor.

Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan couldn't help but chuckle.

He had just been thinking about discussing with Shen Muyan who the traitor was.

In the blink of an eye, the most likely traitor turned out to be himself—what a cruel twist of fate.

However, just as Chu Yunfan was smiling wryly, Shen Muyan suddenly spoke up:

"Senior Brother Yunfan, I now believe you are definitely not a traitor!"

"Oh why?"

Chu Yunfan looked at Shen Muyan, wondering why she trusted him so much.

“If Senior Brother Yunfan were a traitor, he wouldn’t have risked coming back to save me, nor would he have tried so hard to save Tuoba Gui and Gui Yidao.”

After saying this, Shen Muyan stared into Chu Yunfan's eyes and said again:

"The eyes are the windows to the soul."

Looking into Yunfan's eyes, I knew you were a good person.

Moreover, even if I might be mistaken, Sister Wan'er won't be mistaken with me.

I believe that someone whom both Wan'er and I trust would never betray us!

Upon hearing Shen Muyan's two reasons, especially the second one, a smile immediately appeared on Chu Yunfan's face.

"Junior Sister Shen, I'm so glad you trust me. I won't let you down!"

Upon hearing Chu Yunfan's words, Shen Muyan's pretty face also broke into a happy smile.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Muyan asked:

"Senior Brother Yunfan, neither of us are traitors. Tuoba Gui and Gui Yidao have been imprisoned by the Demon Clan."

Could the traitor be the escaped Wukong?

Although it seems reasonable that Yun Wukong escaped using mysterious spatial power.

However, if the other members of the War Emperor's team were traitors, they would definitely have revealed to the Demon Clan that Yun Wukong possessed spatial power.

The demons will also take this into account when carrying out their capture operations, and will not allow Yun Wukong to escape easily.

Unless Wukong is exceptionally powerful, even if the demon race experts knew in advance that he possessed spatial abilities, they could not stop him from escaping.

However, this possibility is very low.

Therefore, in Shen Muyan's speculation, apart from Chu Yunfan who was not present at the operation that day, the most likely traitor was Yun Wukong.

It must be said that although Shen Muyan is naive, she is not stupid and analyzes things very clearly.

However, Chu Yunfan did not directly agree with Shen Muyan's guess, but instead added:

Logically speaking, it is indeed most likely that it is Yun Wukong.

However, as you just said, you, Tuoba Gui, and Gui Yidao were imprisoned separately.

Therefore, it remains a question whether Tuoba Gui and Gui Yidao were actually imprisoned after their capture.

Their arrest might just be a ruse to mislead us!

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Muyan looked at Chu Yunfan with obvious admiration in her eyes.

"Senior Brother Yunfan, you are so clever! I didn't think of any of this!"

Looking at Shen Muyan's adorable, fangirl-like expression, Chu Yunfan thought to himself:

"There's much more you haven't thought of!"

Immediately afterwards, Chu Yunfan spoke:

"Now, we're just waiting for the return of the Third Prince."

If Tuoba Gui and Gui Yidao are indeed being imprisoned by the demons, then the traitor is Yun Wukong.

But if either of them isn't imprisoned, then it's hard to say!

After saying that, Chu Yunfan turned to look in the direction of the door.

This is also an important reason why Chu Yunfan sent Mei Sanshi to lead the charge first.

He needed to confirm first whether Tuoba Gui and Gui Yidao had really been captured.

At the same time, Chu Yunfan began to recall the details of his arrival at the underground demon cave, hoping to find more clues from them.

Time passed slowly as we waited.

An hour later, Mei San Shi finally returned to his room.

As soon as he entered, he couldn't wait to report to Chu Yunfan:

“Master, I have seen your two companions.”

They don't seem to be in good shape right now; not only is their power sealed, but they also look like they're seriously injured.

I saw that the two of them were covered in blood, and it looked like they had a lot of broken bones.

When I arrived, I saw two Cerberus hells gnawing on their flesh and bones!

"Oh? How scary!"

As soon as Mei Sanshi finished speaking, Shen Muyan was so frightened that she hid in Chu Yunfan's arms again.

After hearing Mei Sanshi's description, Chu Yunfan immediately reduced the possibility that the two were traitors to the lowest level.

However, at this moment, Mei III added:

"However, if you wish to save them, Master, it may be difficult."

The place where the two of them were imprisoned was guarded by a large number of powerful guards.

Moreover, the place where they were imprisoned had only one entrance and exit.

This entrance and exit was personally guarded by the Grand Steward.

The Grand Steward is a peak Demon Emperor realm expert with unfathomable strength; forcing our way in is definitely not an option.

But I just tried to see if I could distract the head steward so that you could go in and rescue the people.

However, the head steward told me that my father had given him a strict order: he was not allowed to leave the entrance or exit even a step.

After saying that, Mei San Shi stared at Chu Yun Fan, his meaning clear: he had done his best.

If Chu Yunfan still wants to save people, he can only rely on himself to find a way.

Chu Yunfan was not surprised by this. He had never expected that Mei Sanshi could rescue the person directly with his limited abilities.

Then, Chu Yunfan asked Mei Sanshi a question.

"You drink often, do you know if there's any kind of wine that can get a peak Demon Emperor level expert like the Grand Steward drunk?"
