Chapter 866: Chapter 525: Catching a Traitor?_2

Back then, when Tai Yin was ascending, he praised Tai Yin’s high talent and favored her greatly, planning to mentor her thoroughly.

The emergence of these 2,700 Dao Divine Patterns felt like a slap to Mu Huai’s face.

"It seems Venerable Mu Huai doesn’t know much about his subordinates. I wonder if Venerable Mu Huai has seen through Tai Yin’s true strength?" Wukong smirked.

But Mu Huai remained silent.

This time, he truly misjudged.

Since Tai Yin had hidden her strength, even from him, it showed she had ulterior motives.

And the power of 2,700 Dao Divine Patterns wasn’t achieved overnight.

On the surface, Tai Yin had ascended tens of thousands of years ago, which was too suspicious.

But he didn’t know that Tai Yin’s ascension did indeed happen just a few decades ago.

As one of the top Demon Gods, her aptitude was exceptionally strong.

After Sun Wukong gave her an opportunity, Wang Shu rapidly ascended to the level of 2,700 Dao Divine Patterns.

However, this level of strength was nothing in front of Venerable Undying.

Venerable Undying’s strike was not at full power; he mainly wanted to capture Wang Shu.

With just one strike, Wang Shu directly spit out blood, her essence greatly damaged.

Just as Venerable Undying was about to seize her, a flash of light appeared in Wang Shu’s hand, and her figure vanished before everyone.

This was a life-saving measure given to her by Sun Wukong, even top Supremes had no counter to it.

Indeed, it was true that even top Venerables like Venerable Undying couldn’t capture Wang Shu’s trace any longer.

Wang Shu was still upset, wondering who had exposed her whereabouts. Damn it!

"Bastard!" Venerable Undying was most annoyed; he wanted to showcase his skills but ended up not completing the task, which was quite embarrassing.

"No matter, this person was always with ulterior motives. Since she dared to intrude into our territory, she must have been prepared in advance." Wukong looked towards Mu Huai again.

"Venerable Mu Huai, now do you understand? Sometimes, what you believe to be true isn’t always the case. We all serve Lord Xueyi; I have no reason to make things difficult for you. Everything is for Lord Xueyi."

Mu Huai fell silent. Though Wukong spoke in a lecturing tone, which made Mu Huai uncomfortable, he knew he was the one who misjudged and lost this game.

The other Venerables felt the same way. They did seem a bit petty and narrow-minded just moments ago.

"May I ask the young master, I just saw two Divine Generals leaving. Are there any other people from the Land of the Forsaken Husk here?" Mu Huai found an excuse to ease the tension.

"Exactly! Tai Yin was a pawn placed by the Primordial Chaos Martial Ancestor, but the Dao World Supreme Ruler of the Land of the Forsaken Husk, as well as the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning, had already placed their people long ago. The two Divine Generals had already begun capturing them!" Wukong said.

The top Venerables felt a wave of discomfort.

They had managed the outer domains for many years, yet failed to notice anything unusual.

And Wukong, who had only been around for a short time, had already identified the spies.

Many suspected that Lord Xueyi had shared this information with Wukong, believing there was no way Wukong could have figured this out on his own.

At this moment, the Venerables who had their eyes on the Taiyin Domain were in an uproar.

Spies!

This word was far from their reality.

The Land of the Forsaken Husk was quite unknown to them.

"The experts from the Land of the Forsaken Husk are so capable? They had already set out plans within our domains long ago? Yet, it seems we didn’t make any preparations."

"If not for the young master’s early discovery, we wouldn’t have even caught Venerable Tai Yin. It’s unknown who the other two are. But if we find them, we must not let them go easily."

In the eyes of those from the outer domain, the Land of the Forsaken Husk symbolized abundance.

They always believed the Land of the Forsaken Husk contained endless opportunities.

But it’s easy to overlook the difficulty in conquering the Land of the Forsaken Husk.

Venerable Undying had previously gambled against the Primordial side and ended up in a devastating defeat.

This had made all top Venerables more vigilant.

Following this, they began deploying Venerables into the Land of the Forsaken Husk because the intervention of the Third Divine General made many Supremes realize the power of the Land of the Forsaken Husk.

Now, with spies infiltrating under their noses,

this was undoubtedly a slap to the faces of the top Venerables.

"We must determine who the other two are and kill them!"

As soon as Venerable Flame finished speaking, a strong wave of energy emanated near the Youhai Domain.

The crowd hurried to the scene.

They found the Third Divine General, Youying, holding an ink blade, blocking the path of a figure.

"He... he is also a traitor!" Venerable Undying found it hard to believe.

The man, dressed in white, had the demeanor of a middle-aged scholar, holding a sharp blade and exuding an extraordinary aura.

This remarkable middle-aged man was the Venerable Wenshan of the outer domain,

an ancient Venerable.

In the eyes of the others, Venerable Wenshan’s strength wasn’t particularly powerful, but it was rumored that his insights and Dao comprehension were unparalleled.

A long time ago, Wenshan had discussed the Dao with Venerable Undying and received high praise.

Since then, Venerable Undying had a high regard for Wenshan and often looked after him.

Privately, their relationship was indeed quite good.

So, seeing Wenshan blocked by Youying, Venerable Undying was a bit stunned.

But it was only a moment of surprise.

To him, Wenshan was merely someone who pleased him; even if Wenshan died, it wouldn’t matter much.

Moreover, Venerable Undying felt deeply enraged at Wenshan for deceiving his feelings.

"There’s been a legend of the Ninth Venerable in the Land of the Forsaken Husk. Many did not know who the Ninth Venerable was until the Dao World Supreme Ruler revealed it was actually the Sword Master’s Master Xiaoyao!" Wukong said slowly.

"The Sword Master Xiaoyao was the founder of the Sword Dao in the Land of the Forsaken Husk, an expert in the Sword Dao who eventually disappeared. It seems at that time the Dao World Supreme Ruler had you infiltrate our domain, becoming an important piece for the Dao World Supreme Ruler."

"So, how did the young master figure it out?" Xiaoyaozi did not attempt any excuse.

For he knew the young master was clever. Since he found him, it meant he was certain Xiaoyaozi was a traitor.

When Tai Yin was exposed, Xiaoyaozi had already suspected he might be revealed, but the Third Divine General arrived too quickly for him to escape.

What puzzled Xiaoyaozi was that this so-called young master had only recently been born,

yet knew so much.

Previously, he had fooled the top Supremes in the outer domain, and he was sure those fools wouldn’t recognize him.

Could it be that it was the powerful Xueyi?

But the Dao Supreme had sworn that Xueyi wouldn’t uncover his origins.

If it was indeed the young master’s doing, then it was truly unbelievable and intriguing.

"I have my ways. But Xiaoyaozi Sword Master, I want to ask you one question. What made you, Liquor Sword Immortal, and even the Sword Dao, serve the Dao World Supreme Ruler?" Wukong asked.

This question had long baffled him.

The eighth calamity of this cosmic epoch was about to befall!

Through its development, he had seen some clues.

The Sword Dao was a key part of the Dao World Supreme Ruler’s layout.

Step by step, the importance of the Sword Dao became more apparent.

Its primary role now prominently lay in the two legendary Sword Masters from the Sword Dao.

Xiaoyaozi and Liquor Sword Immortal were both exceptional figures, renowned both in the Land of the Forsaken Husk and the outer domain.

Furthermore, Sun Wukong sensed that both Xiaoyaozi and Liquor Sword Immortal had distinct personalities and pursuits, making it unlikely they were forced or bribed into serving.

In fact, Sun Wukong suspected that above the two Sword Masters and even above the Sword Dao, the Dao World Supreme Ruler had other plans.

Not to mention, the so-called force of annihilation, the power capable of killing Venerables, contained many secrets, making it hard to fathom.
