The Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron Novel - Chapter 2537
2537 Chapter 2428, the Ancient Tomb of the Devil sect
They shouted, “Welcome back, sect leader!”
The Head Incharge’s expression changed and he immediately knelt down on one knee.
Sect leader?
!!
Not far away, a wine gourd floated over.
An old man with a wine nose, ruddy complexion, and messy hair sat on it.
Behind the old man was a middle-aged woman. She was the second incharge of the Tai Yi sect.
They went to the holy city to recruit new strong practitioners to replenish the blood of the sect.
However, because Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan had saved the group of captured strong practitioners, they changed their minds and returned empty-handed.
It was neither too early nor too late, and they happened to bump into this scene.
The sect leader jumped down. The wine gourd turned into an ordinary size and was pinned to his waist.
“What happened?”The sect leader looked at Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan, then at the Incharge.
The sect leader’s eyes flashed with a hint of evasiveness, but he was very sure about it. “Sect leader, Jiang Xuanzhong and the other four heroes of the inner sect were all betrayed by a traitor and were persecuted to death.”
The sect leader fell silent and sighed.
“They’re dead!”
“What exactly happened? Who betrayed them?”asked the sect leader.
Hence, the sect leader and Jin Jia each told the truth.
After hearing that, the sect leader did not speak for a long time and asked without turning his head, “Zhenqing, what do you think?”
The second sect leader looked at the sect leader, then looked at Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan. “Naturally, the words of the sect leader are more credible.”
The sect leader had done countless meritorious deeds for the sect and was extremely loyal.
There was no reason for him to lie.
The sect leader nodded his head slightly. “Not bad.”
Then, he looked at Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan.
Su Yu felt a terrifying pressure when he was facing a powerful tunnel master at such a close distance.
It was as if he was going to be crushed at the next moment.
If the tunnel master wanted to kill him, he did not even need to lift a finger.
Just a glance was enough!
Just when Su Yu reached his limit and was about to summon the female corpse…
Suddenly, his entire body was empty.
The head suddenly turned around and slapped the head of the head.
The Incharge was caught off guard and half of his body was smashed.
At the same time, a field nailed his body and soul to the ground in the courtyard, unable to move.
The sudden change caused an uproar in the whole hall!
Zhenqing was shocked and said, “Sect leader, why did you attack the Chief? The traitor is the two outer court disciples!”
Her mind was blank and she did not understand what was wrong with the sect leader.
Jin Jia was also stunned and there was still a smug smile on his face.
The sect leader’s ruddy face was filled with a faint killing intent. He said in a dry and hoarse voice, “It’s my poor eyesight. For many years, I did not realize that there was a person with evil intentions around me.”
His words shocked Jin Jia and Zhenqing.
Was the chief in charge a traitor?
Zhenqing said, “Sect leader, you must have solid evidence. You can’t kill people arbitrarily.”
She couldn’t accept the fact that the chief in charge was a traitor.
The sect leader waved his hand and sighed, “I once gave Jiang Xuanzhong two treasures. One is a purple jade pendant and the other is a soul returning worm. You all know the former, but only Jiang Xuanzhong and I know the latter!”
What?
There was a second treasure?
Indeed, no one knew about this!
“The soul returning worm can resurrect the dead in a short time and restore them to their peak condition,”the sect leader said slowly, “Therefore, the effect of the soul returning worm is that Chongyang can resurrect the dead.”
“However, the head steward said that he died of heavy injuries when he received Chongyang!”The sect leader’s eyes were cold.
It was obvious that Chongyang was at his peak after being resurrected.
How could he die of heavy injuries?
There was only one answer!
The head steward had killed him!
Therefore, he concluded that the head steward was the real traitor!
Furthermore, the Golden Armored Hall Master was also a traitor!
Upon hearing this, Zhenqing immediately understood the meaning behind it. His eyes changed again and again before they finally turned cold.
“Head Incharge! You are too disappointing!”If it wasn’t for the fact that the sect leader had secretly saved Jiang Xuanzhong, he wouldn’t have known that there was such a dangerous mole hidden in the Tai Yi sect!
If he were to suddenly attack one day, with his status and strength, it would definitely cause an unimaginable disaster.
Fortunately, the head incharge had given himself away and was completely subdued by the sect leader.
“Take him away and lock him up in the heavenly prison of the mine,”the sect leader ordered.
Zhen Qing nodded and immediately carried the sealed head incharge to the mine to be locked up personally.
At the same time, the sect leader looked at the Golden Armor Hall Master with an indifferent expression, “Betraying the sect is a capital crime, not to mention killing the four heroes of the inner sect!”
However, although the Golden Armor Hall master was in a desperate situation, he still took a killing weapon from me.
“Don’t come over!”He took out the purple jade pendant that should have belonged to Jiang Xuanzhong.
The jade pendant was filled with the terrifying power that only the tunnel master had.
Moreover, the jade pendant was already in an activated state. As long as the Golden Armored Hall master squeezed it lightly, he would be able to activate it.
At that time, more than half of the Tai Yi sect would be destroyed.
Other than the sect leader who was still safe and sound, everyone else, including Su Yu, would be blasted into dust.
However, the sect leader’s expression was very calm.
“Are you using my things to threaten me?”The sect leader laughed silently.
He reached out his hand and grabbed at the air.
The purple jade pendant that had clearly been activated actually dimmed strangely.
The Golden Armored Hall leader’s heart sank to the bottom, and his eyes were filled with despair.
Plop —
He knelt on the ground and repeatedly kowtowed, “Please show mercy, sect leader, please show mercy, I was forced!”
The sect leader shook his head lightly. “Betrayal is betrayal. There’s no such thing as being forced or not being forced.”
However, the sect leader obviously wanted to get more useful information from him, so he did not kill him immediately.
Instead, he waved his hand and sealed all his limbs and bones.
Only then did he look at Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan.
“It’s been hard on the two of you!”The sect leader smiled faintly.
Su Yu and Yu Xiang Wan’s tokens flew out of their bodies and appeared in the sect leader’s hand.
The sect leader swiped his finger on the token and handed it back to them.
Yu Xiang Wan took back her token and looked at it. She was pleasantly surprised. “A seven-star disciple?”
Before this, he was only a two-star disciple.
In the blink of an eye, he had become a seven-star disciple, a whole five levels higher!
Su Yu looked at his token. What made his pupils shrink was that he had jumped from an eight-star disciple to a hall master!
Yes, he had crossed nine-star disciples and deputy hall masters consecutively and became the new hall master directly.
“Sect master, this…”Su Yu felt that the reward this time was too heavy.
The sect master smiled indifferently, “You have made great contributions consecutively. It’s your duty! Let me see if there are any vacant positions for you first.”
Su Yu was overjoyed.
He did not care about the position. As long as his level was high enough, it would be enough for him to borrow the supreme heavenly mirror once.
“Thank you, sect leader!”
“Mm, take this person to the mine and lock him up.”The sect leader threw the leader of the Golden Armor clan on the ground and handed him over to them to deal with.
He returned to the depths of the sect.
He had left the sect for too long and was under the control of the traitor. Who knew if there were other hidden dangers in the sect?
“Brother Su, you can go. I’ll send him to the heavenly prison.”Yu Xiang Wan gave Su Yu a congratulatory look.
Only he knew that Su Yu had risked his life to successfully reach the level of the hall master by using the Supreme Heavenly Mirror.
Now that the sect master had granted his wish, he had finally reached the level of the hall master. Naturally, he needed money to fulfill his wish.
“Be careful,”warned Su Yu.
Yu Xiang Wan sneered. “What’s so dangerous about sending a sealed cripple?”
As she said that, she picked up the Golden Armor Hall Master and sent him to the mine.
Su Yu frowned.
He did not know why, but he felt a slight sense of unease.
However, he could not fathom where the unease came from.
The chief in charge and the Golden Armor Hall Master had been suppressed. Could there be other unknown dangers?
There shouldn’t be any?
Su Yu opened his mouth but did not say anything in the end.
That was because he was not sure where the source of the unease came from.
“I can’t keep the Taiyi sect,”Su Yu thought to himself.
After he finished using the Supreme Heavenly Mirror, he wanted to ask Yu Xiang Wan if she wanted to leave with him.
With that thought in mind, he quickly went to the core area of the sect, the secret hall.
All the important and confidential matters were completed in this hall.
The supreme one Supreme Heavenly Mirror was in the Secret Hall. The sect master had personally set up an array formation to guard it. It was impossible for an ordinary person to break in.
He came to the Secret Hall, showed his hall master token to the hall master, and successfully entered.
He also saw the supreme one Supreme Heavenly Mirror that he had always dreamed of.
It was a puppet that was completely reflective.
The surface of its body was like countless mirrors, reflecting the shadows of everything in the universe.
The strange thing was that the surrounding scenery was not reflected at all.
“I want to find the exact location of the vile-daughter palace.”Su Yu was looking forward to it.
The surface of the Taiyi supreme heavenly mirror immediately flashed with light. The Shadows of the reflections flickered continuously, as if they were trying their best to search for information about the vile-daughter palace.
Two hours passed.
Four hours passed.
The Supreme Heavenly Mirror was still spinning.
“It seems that the information you are looking for is very scarce. That’s why you are taking such a long time,”the leader of the secret hall consoled.
As he was speaking.
The Supreme Heavenly Mirror suddenly stopped with a ding.
The same image was reflected on its entire body.
It was a dark, violent world filled with lightning and thunder.
In the world, many coffins were arranged neatly, and corpse Qi filled the air.
One could vaguely see a blood-red coffin lying in the center of the Dark World.
A terrifying aura was faintly emitted from the coffin.
It was as if there was a heaven-devouring monster lying inside. who could break out of the coffin and devour the world.
On the other side of the blood coffin, a dilapidated palace could be seen hanging at the edge of the dark world. It was on the verge of collapsing.
Then, the scene came to an abrupt end.
“What is that place?”Su Yu’s breathing was slightly hurried.
That dilapidated palace was the vile-daughter palace!
However, what was that pitch-black world?
What did so many coffins mean?
What were the powerful creatures in the blood-red coffin?
Regarding this, the hall master of the secret hall thought, “Perhaps, the people of the Devil sect will know.”
The Hall Master of the Secret Hall was in charge of the most confidential information in the sect. He had an unimaginable understanding of everything in the universe.
“How do you know?”Su Yu asked.
The Hall Master of the Secret Hall swiped his finger and the scene was played back halfway.
“Look at those coffins. They all have the same pattern.”
Su Yu looked carefully. Those patterns were all the same.
