Chapter 689 - 689 The Demonic Sect
689 The Demonic Sect
On top of a cliff, a man wearing a mask and black clothes walked to the edge of the cliff and suddenly jumped down. Then, in the process of jumping, he suddenly grabbed a vine and flew to a protruding rock. He stood on the rock and let go of the vine. Then he found a sharp stone. It was obvious that this stone was much smoother and s.h.i.+nier than the surrounding stones.
He grabbed the sharp stone and turned it around. A “boom” sound came from the cliff.
Very quickly, a door appeared in front of the man.
The man let go and stepped into the cave.
Inside the cave, it was completely different from the outside.
!!Instead, it was resplendent with gold and silver murals everywhere. Luminous night pearls were hung around the mountain walls, illuminating the cave. In the cave with eighteen curves, there was a Night Pearl every few steps. As the light, it could reflect every mural on the cave walls. There were strange people of ancient times, fairies descending to the mortal world, the eighteen levels of h.e.l.l that made people feel fear, and also a Fairyland filled with white smoke.
“Welcome back to the palace, Cult Master!”
As soon as the man stepped in, two rows of people immediately knelt down on one foot to welcome him. The formation was very grand.
“Welcome back to the palace, Cult Master!”
A series of loud sounds reverberated in the empty cave.
No one had ever thought that the demonic sect’s base camp, which had caused the entire imperial court a headache, was actually in a cave on a cliff.
The masked man in Black flicked his sleeves and sat down on his high seat. He then laid down lazily. The maidservant beside him immediately took out purple grapes, peeled them, and put them into the sect master’s mouth.
After the man ate a few grapes, he asked in a lazy tone, ” how’s the investigation going? ”
The left protector, who was wearing a white robe, reported seriously, ” reporting to the sect master, I didn’t let you down. I’ve finally found where Jiang Zhennan has been hiding for the past six months.
The man’s voice was calm as he asked indifferently, ” Oh, where? ”
“there’s a small mountain village in An Ding County called the Lin family Village. Jiang Zhennan has been farming in that village for half a year!
“Pfft!”
As soon as the left protector reported this, the man immediately spat out the grape in his mouth. Then, he sat up and asked in disbelief, ” you said that Jiang Zhennan has been farming in a small mountain village for the past six months? ”
“Yes, sect master!”
The man was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said, “A defender-general of the state has been reduced to a small mountain village to farm. It’s so funny!”
After a few laughs, he couldn’t help but ask, ” how did you find out? ”
The left protector didn’t laugh along with the sect master. Instead, he said with a serious expression, “Our spies in the army headquarters reported that a young man named Zhou wencai has been very close to Jiang Zhennan and Guo Bing recently.
“Not long after Jiang Zhennan returned to Beijing, Zhou wencai, who seemed to have appeared out of thin air, came to look for Jiang Zhennan. Therefore, this subordinate suspects that Zhou Wencai and Jiang Zhennan’s interaction was very likely to happen in the past six months.
“It was as I had expected.
“Zhou Wencai and his father were p.a.w.ns that the Zhou family had given up on. The Zhou family had long sent them to An Ding County.
“For this reason, I went to An Ding County, and through some clues, I found out that Jiang Zhennan had been hiding in the small Lin family Village for the past six months.”
After hearing the left protector’s report, the man stopped laughing and asked very seriously, ” with Jiang Zhennan’s unique appearance, wouldn’t it be easy for people to guess who he is? Why hasn’t there been any news of it in the past half a year?”
The subordinate continued to report, ” reporting to Cult Master, it’s because he didn’t wear The Silver Mask that would let people recognize his ident.i.ty in the past half a year!
The man immediately asked in surprise, ” how is that possible? I know that when Jiang Zhennan was twelve years old, his face was disfigured by the enemy on the battlefield. If he didn’t wear a mask, he would probably scare those simple villagers, right?”
The left protector said, ” reporting to the sect master, that Jiang Zhennan didn’t wear a mask because he didn’t need to wear one anymore.”
“Eh? What do you mean by that?” The man frowned slightly, dissatisfied with his subordinate’s riddle.
