Chapter 801: 197. Devil Sect insiders everywhere?
Sima Liu was obviously not discussing with Zhixi but informing her. So without waiting for Zhixi’s reply, the Black Mist he used to protect the Devil Sect believers suddenly exploded and then spread out in all directions.
The Devil Sect believers didn’t know what happened. Seeing the Black Mist shrouding their figures suddenly disappear, they couldn’t help but stop walking and look towards Zhixi leading at the front.
Seeing this, Zhixi couldn’t help but stop walking too. She coughed once and said in a deep voice, “We’ve been hustling for three hours. Rest here now.”
The Devil Sect believers whom Zhixi was leading away were all Awakeners from the Miaohua Tribe. They were of the same tribe as Zhixi and had obeyed her, the Clan Leader’s daughter, even before their Awakening. Now, with the added hierarchy of the Devil Sect, Zhixi’s words made them respond in unison, “Yes!” and they promptly sat down on the ground as instructed.
After arranging the believers, Zhixi did not sit down. She stood in place and looked into the distance, wanting to see where Sima Liu had gone.
After a moment, a terrifying wave of Law Fluctuations suddenly came from afar. Then half the sky turned red, accompanied by the sound of a raging wind, as if two strong individuals were fighting.
After a while, the Law Fluctuations suddenly disappeared, and all the phenomena were gone.
A minute later, the Black Mist reappeared above everyone’s heads, and Sima Liu’s slightly fatigued voice came to Zhixi’s ear, “Alright, let’s go.”
Although Zhixi was very curious about the fight just now, she wisely did not ask immediately. She first commanded the believers to start traveling again, and after half an hour, seeing that Sima Liu had rested and there were no pursuers, she tentatively asked, “Sir, did something happen just now?”
Sima Liu knew Miaomiao and Zhixi were important members of the Devil Sect, so he didn’t hide the truth from Zhixi but casually explained, “The Messenger’s order was to eliminate the Rejuvenation Society.” frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
“Now, although the Rejuvenation Society’s Fusers and Awakeners have been captured by the official forces, three leading members of the Yang Transformation level are one dead, one injured, and one escaped.”
“I can leave the dead and injured alone, but I still need to handle the escaped one.”
Hearing Sima Liu’s words, Zhixi suddenly realized, “The one covered in bandages, right?”
Sima Liu responded with a sound of acknowledgment and remarked, “Her strength is decent, and she possesses Space System abilities, making her very troublesome. So I’ve been trying to locate and trap her.”
“Fortunately, I obtained a Barrier Class Extraordinary Artifact over the years, otherwise she might have escaped again.”
Curiously, Zhixi asked, “Did you capture her alive, sir?”
Sima Liu confirmed with a nod and explained, “The other two Yang Transformation members are in the official forces’ hands. A living captive is needed for reporting back.”
From the importance Sima Liu attached to Fang Ze’s mission, Zhixi sensitively realized that the relationship between Sima Liu and “Fang Ze” wasn’t just a simple hierarchical one, but Sima Liu had sincere respect and concern for Fang Ze.
‘Is Fang Ze’s status in the organization really that high?’
Although Zhixi had long guessed that Fang Ze’s identity was not ordinary, seeing that Fang Ze not only commanded Mortality-Shedding level members but also earned genuine respect and recognition from this Mortality-Shedding member, she was still a bit surprised.
After analyzing Fang Ze’s status in her mind, Zhixi did not idle around. She knew it was very rare to interact with a Mortality-Shedding level expert, possibly the highest-ranked master she would encounter in these two years. So she seized the opportunity to humbly ask about Awakening, Fusion, and Awakening Ability-related knowledge.
While asking questions, she couldn’t help but inquire about the entire plan of Sima Liu for the night, “Apostle, were the two forces tonight one governmental and the other the Rejuvenation Society? Did you make them fight?”
Upon hearing Zhixi’s question, Sima Liu did not deny, “Yes.”
He then briefly explained, “There is an insider in the official team from our organization who informed me ahead of time about the Rejuvenation Society’s and official forces’ plans. After that, I assessed the situation in Qingshan City.”
“Qingshan City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with only one must-pass road to the outside, so I used Avatar Treasure to hide at several fixed points to monitor the movements of the two organizations.”
“It is indeed very difficult to find a hidden organization, but it’s very easy to trace them before they hide. So it was simple for me to locate their movements.”
“Subsequently, my clone hid near their hiding spot and dissolved after taking the initiative to cause misunderstandings between them. With the coordination of our organization’s insider in the official team, they would find it hard not to fight.”
Listening to Sima Liu recount tonight’s plan, Zhixi couldn’t help but be surprised: before today, she genuinely believed through various signs that the Devil Sect might only have three key figures—her, Miaomiao, and Fang Ze.
But what she saw and heard today genuinely overturned her understanding: the organization was actually so strong, not only had Mortality-Shedding level experts but also implanted personnel within official ranks!
Such large-scale actions involving thousands of people like today would surely be kept confidential by the officials, and obtaining information in advance meant reaching at least the mid-upper echelons of Emerald City’s hierarchy.
This sufficiently showed that the Devil Sect had been deeply rooted in West Yunlan State for years!
