Chapter 289 Sect Reunion
Yunshuang woke up from her sleep, and the figures of Lin Qingxue and Liu Ruyan were still in front of her eyes.
He shook his head, dispelled the beautiful dream, and quietly left the bedroom with the saint.
The Demon Palace was silent at night. The Saint led Yunshuang through dark corridors, stopping from time to time to point out the key points.
"This is the only way for the guards to change shifts." The Saint pointed to a corner. "The shift changes every hour, and the interval is just enough for you to slip through."
Yun Shuang remembered it in her heart, and suddenly she heard footsteps. The Saint immediately hid him in her sleeve and pretended to enjoy the night view.
A burly guard came over and saluted respectfully: "Lady Saint, it's so late and you haven't rested yet?"
"I can't sleep, so I came out for a walk." The saint said lightly.
The guard was about to leave when he suddenly frowned: "Saint, is there something going on up your sleeve?"
"Oh, it's my new pet that's been restless." The Saint patted her sleeves gently, "Little Gray, stop it."
Yun Shuang quickly pretended to cry out in a baby voice, and the guard left with peace of mind.
After the guards walked away, the Saint continued to lead the way: "Remember the rotation schedule of these guards. It is very important for you."
They came to a secluded corner, and the Saint pointed to a brick on the wall and said, "There is a secret passage here, leading to the basement of the hall."
"Secretly?" Yun Shuang's eyes lit up.
"But it can't be used." The Saint Girl shook her head, "The Demon Lord has placed restrictions inside. If it is triggered, it will alarm him."
Yunshuang was a little disappointed. The Saint took him to a garden and pointed at a purple wisteria: "This vine can climb to the top of the hall. It's a good route."
"Are there any guards on the roof of the hall?"
"No, but there is a formation." The Saint said, taking out a jade slip, "This is the method to break the formation, remember it."
Yun Shuang was about to take the jade slip when she suddenly heard hurried footsteps.
A woman in red came running over.
"Hongxiu? What's the matter so late?" asked the saint.
"Saint Maiden, something bad has happened!" Hongxiu panted. "Mosha has led his men to search all the secret passages, saying they want to find the trace of the intruder!"
The Saint frowned: "He hasn't given up yet?"
"Yes, he said that your pet is too suspicious and he must get to the bottom of it."
Yun Shuang secretly sweated in her sleeves. But the Saintess was calm and composed: "Let him investigate, he won't find anything anyway."
"But..." Hongxiu hesitated to speak.
"how?"
"Mosha said that if he couldn't find out the truth this time, he would reveal the truth in front of the Demon Lord at the Alchemy Conference."
The Saint sneered: "He dares!"
"I also think he's bluffing," Hongxiu said, "but he has a new woman named Qingshe under his command. She's said to be skilled in soul-searching techniques."
"Green snake?" A cold light flashed in the Saint's eyes. "I understand. You can go back first."
After Hongxiu left, Yunshuang asked, "Does the Saint know that Green Snake?"
"An old acquaintance." The Saint snorted coldly, "Five years ago, she tried to use the soul-searching technique on me, but I ended up breaking one of her arms.
I didn’t expect it to come again now.”
"Then let's..."
"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements." The Saint said, taking out a small purple bottle from her bosom, "This is the God-blocking Powder, which can completely block the detection of divine consciousness."
Yunshuang took the vial and found that it contained some purple powder.
He was about to speak when he heard a noise in the distance.
"The Demonic Demons are here," the Saint said, "Let's go back first."
As soon as they returned to the bedroom, they heard the demon’s voice coming from outside: “Search!
Don’t miss a single corner!”
The Saint sat by the bed, Yunshuang hiding in her sleeve. Soon, Mosha and a group of people rushed in.
"Please forgive me, Saint. I am searching on your orders." Mosha said, winking at his subordinates.
A woman in black came forward, and Yunshuang guessed that this was the Green Snake.
Her right arm was obviously shorter than her left arm. It seemed that what the saint said was true.
"Saintess, long time no see." The green snake said with a sinister smile, "I wonder where your pet is?
Let me see it.”
"Xiao Hui is sleeping, it's inconvenient to disturb him." The saint said lightly.
"That won't do." The green snake narrowed its eyes. "We are here to investigate suspicious individuals under the orders of the Demon Lord. Please cooperate with us, Saint."
"The Demon Lord's order?" The Saint stood up and said, "Show it to me."
Green Snake's expression changed: "This..."
"Without the Demon Lord's order, you dare to trespass into my bedroom?"
The Saint sneered, "It seems that you don't take me seriously."
Mosha quickly tried to smooth things over: "Saint, please calm down! It was my fault for not thinking things through.
I'll take everyone away right now."
"Wait." The Saint said, "Since you are here, why not let the Green Snake check it out.
It will also prove my innocence."
Yunshuang was shocked, not knowing what the saint was up to.
The saint took it out from her sleeve and placed it on the table.
"Come on, Green Snake." The Saint said with a smile, "Let me see if your soul-searching skills have improved."
The green snake laughed sinisterly and pointed a finger at Yun Shuang's forehead. At this moment, the Saint suddenly waved her hand and a purple light flashed.
"Ah!" The green snake screamed and fell to the ground, covering its right arm.
"What's wrong?" Mosha hurriedly supported her.
"I...my arm..." the green snake trembled, "I can't feel it anymore..."
The Saint said coldly: "Isn't the lesson from five years ago enough?"
Mosha's face turned pale: "Saint, what are you doing..."
"Get out!" the Saint said sternly, "If I see you trespassing in the bedroom again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Mosha gritted his teeth, but didn't dare to say anything more. He supported the green snake and left in shame.
After Mosha and the others left, Yunshuang breathed a sigh of relief: "The Saint is quite resourceful!"
"It's just a little trick." The Saint took out a purple jade token from her sleeve, "This is a soul-binding token, which can counteract the soul-searching technique.
Green Snake suffered a great loss this time and will not be able to perform soul-searching magic for a while."
"Wouldn't that make her even more suspicious of my identity?"
"That's fine." The Saint said with a smile, "She'll just think I'm protecting my pet now."
As she was speaking, Zi Ling quietly slipped in: "Sister, I heard a piece of news."
"what news?"
"The Demon Lord is going to summon Mosha tonight." Zi Ling lowered her voice, "It seems to be about the alchemy conference."
The Saint's eyes lit up: "That's perfect. Go and keep an eye on the demons and see what they say."
Zi Ling nodded and slipped out quietly. Yun Shuang asked, "Why is the Saint so concerned about the conversation between Mosha and the Demon Lord?"
"The Demon Lord is very secretive in his actions," the Saint said. "Before every alchemy conference, he would summon a few of his confidants to assign them special tasks."
"Special mission?"
"For example, poisoning the pills, or creating chaos at a critical moment."
The Saint sneered, "These are his usual tactics."
Yun Shuang suddenly understood: "So the Saint wants to know his plan in advance?"
"Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles." The Saint said, taking out a purple sachet from her bosom, "This is the Ecstasy Incense, maybe it will be useful when the time comes."
Yunshuang took the sachet and smelled a faint fragrance. Just as she was about to take a closer look, she suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside.
A woman in white ran in and said, "Something bad has happened to Saint!
The Demon Lord sent someone to tell me that he wants to convene the alchemy conference ahead of schedule!"
"Advance?" The Saint frowned. "Advance until when?"
"tomorrow!"
Yun Shuang was startled. But the Saint remained calm: "I understand. You can go down."
After the woman in white left, Yun Shuang asked, "It's so sudden, could this be a trick?"
"Of course it's a trick." The Saint sneered, "The Demon Lord wants to catch us off guard.
but..."
Before she finished speaking, Zi Ling hurried back: "Sister, I heard the conversation between Mosha and Mozun!"
"explain."
"The Demon Lord ordered the Demon Demon to create chaos at the Alchemy Conference, taking the opportunity to test the Saint's reaction."
Zi Ling said, "He suspects that my sister has something to do with the fugitive."
"I see." The Saint nodded, "No wonder the alchemy conference was held in advance."
"Then our plan..." Yunshuang was a little worried.
"No need to change." The Saint was confident, "Instead, it's an opportunity.
The greater the chaos, the easier it is for us to move.”
She pulled out a brocade box from under the bed and opened it to reveal a blood-red pill. "This is the Blood Demon Pill. It can cause a person to temporarily lose their mind and go crazy."
"Has the Saint prepared in advance?"
"I have been preparing for this day all these years," the Saint said. "Tomorrow, I will let the Demon Lord taste the bitterness of his own actions."
Yunshuang looked at the saint's confident look and secretly admired her in her heart.
At this time, there was another commotion outside.
"What's wrong again?" The saint frowned.
Zi Ling poked her head out to take a look: "It's the Green Snake! She's yelling outside, saying she wants revenge on the Saint!"
"Seeking death!" The Saint snorted coldly, "It seems she doesn't want another arm anymore."
She was about to go out when she suddenly remembered something: "By the way, you two should eat this first."
The Saint took out two purple pills and handed them to Yun Shuang and Zi Ling: "This is the Heart Protection Pill, which can prevent the effects of the Blood Demon Pill."
Yunshuang and Ziling swallowed the pills and felt a warm current flowing through their bodies.
At this time, the green snake's shouting and cursing were getting closer and closer.
"Sister, do you want me to go..." Zi Ling was eager to try.
"No need." The Saint sneered, "Since she is seeking death, I will grant her wish."
With that, the Saint strode out of the bedroom. Yun Shuang and Zi Ling exchanged a glance and followed her out.
I saw Green Snake leading a group of people shouting outside the temple.
"Saint! Get out here!" the green snake screamed at the top of its lungs. "Today it's either you or me!"
The Saint stood on the steps, looking down at her condescendingly: "Green Snake, are you tired of living?"
"Hahaha!" Green Snake laughed wildly, "Saintess, do you think you can still use tricks like you did five years ago?
Today I want everyone to know the truth about you harboring a fugitive!"
"Really?" The Saint sneered, "Then tell me, who am I protecting?"
"You..." The green snake was speechless, and then shouted, "Your spirit pet is actually that fugitive transformed!"
"Where's the evidence?"
"I...I don't need evidence!" The green snake gritted its teeth, "As long as I search your soul, everything will be revealed!"
The Saint smiled contemptuously: "With just this broken arm of yours, are you worthy enough to search my soul?"
"You!" The green snake was so angry that it was shaking all over. Suddenly, it took out a blood-red pill from its arms and said, "Eat this and I will be able to recover my strength!"
Yun Shuang took a closer look and found that the pill was exactly the same as the Blood Demon Pill that the Saint Maiden had just taken out.
