Chapter 359: Spy Within a Spy Within a Spy? The Deadly Rebellion of the Moon Goddess and Fei Yan!
In fact, without the Grand Priestess saying anything, Li Mo was already aware of Donghuang Taiyi’s schemes.
“You speak too much!”
However, her words incited Lady Ehuang’s displeasure.
She immediately raised her palm to strike the Grand Priestess across the face.
But before her hand could reach the Grand Priestess’s face, Fei Yan intervened and neutralized the attack.
Lady Ehuang looked at Fei Yan in confusion and said, “Lady Dongjun…”
Fei Yan seemed unwilling to explain, merely saying nonchalantly, “This is no place for you to speak.”
At this moment, the Grand Priestess was even more convinced.
This pair was not only in conflict, but the latter group appeared to have even greater strength than the former.
Seeing this, the leader of the Chiyou Tribe, who had been staring dumbfounded at Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess for quite some time, finally snapped back to reality.
Today was truly his lucky day, as two stunning beauties had appeared!
No wonder it’s said that the Central Plains are full of remarkable people; seeing them today, they truly are extraordinary.
If I can obtain the Chiyou Magic Sword, then these beauties would all be mine, right?
He immediately jumped out and said, “Who are you? Dare to interfere in the affairs of the Chiyou Tribe? Bring them down first!”
As long as I obtain the Chiyou Magic Sword, these people are not worth worrying about.
As his voice fell, Fei Yan shot him a cold, indifferent glance.
At the same time, she waved her hand, unleashing a blast of “Dragon’s Energy.”
The leader of the Chiyou Tribe did not expect that this seemingly dignified and noble woman would strike without hesitation; before he could even dodge, he was instantly blasted into a mist of blood.
The disciples of the Yin-Yang School were taken aback.
Although they hadn’t seen each other for years, Dongjun was still the same Dongjun.
For her, there was no such thing as mercy.
If she could act, she would definitely not spare a single word!
With the leader of the Chiyou Tribe dead, the soldiers of the Chiyou Tribe erupted into chaos.
They shouted and clamored to charge forward to avenge their leader.
However, suddenly, a thousand-man troop charged in from behind.
Li Wu led the elite soldiers of the Great Qin, surrounding them completely.
The situation on the field changed dramatically in an instant.
The Chiyou Tribe, who had just been in an advantageous position, suddenly became trapped like fish in a barrel.
From a distance, the sounds of battle also rose in intensity.
The disciples of the Yin-Yang School and the ambushers from Liu Sha began to make their move.
This time, the Yin-Yang School had come out in full force; however, the Left Protector Star Soul and Bai Siming did not appear here.
They were clearly arranged by Donghuang Taiyi to deal with Wei Zhuang and Tian Ze, among others.
“National Advisor, what do you mean by this?”
Hearing the sounds of fighting outside, Yunzhong felt that the situation was becoming dire.
His ambushers outside had been discovered!
But how did Li Mo know?
The Moon Goddess had sent a message days ago, saying that Liu Sha had long dispatched people to set up an ambush.
They had set a trap to counter-ambush Luo Network.
But since he hadn’t issued an attack signal just now, it could only mean that Liu Sha had taken the initiative!
“You—you betray Lord Donghuang!”
Yunzhong and the others were not fools.
After a moment’s thought, they quickly grasped where the problem lay.
In disbelief, they stared at the Moon Goddess.
“What Lord Donghuang wishes to know, I have already told him; I merely informed the National Advisor of Lord Donghuang’s matters as well. How can this be called betrayal?”
At this point, the Moon Goddess no longer pretended.
It was time to prepare for the showdown with Donghuang Taiyi.
If she didn’t step firmly into line now, would she wait for her Senior Sister to express her stance first?
After finally weaseling her way into a position closer to Li Mo, if she fell behind again, who knows when she would catch up.
As her words fell, Fei Yan pushed the Grand Priestess away from Lady Ehuang, pulling the latter to her side.
Seeing this, the disciples of the Yin-Yang School were once again alarmed.
Even the Dongjun has defected?!
“Lady Dongjun, you…”
Most shocked of all was Da Siming.
She knew very well the character of Dongjun.
A cold and ruthless person, how could she commit an act of betrayal against the Yin-Yang School?
She had no interest in anything in the world; how did Li Mo persuade her?
“Who are you, really?”
The Grand Priestess could no longer hold back and asked at this moment.
Things seemed to be turning out differently than she had imagined.
This betrayal and that betrayal: it sounded like his people were their people, but their people were actually his.
She didn’t think she was foolish, but now her mind was indeed struggling to keep up.
Fei Yan glanced at her and said lightly, “People who can save you.”
“Lord Donghuang, you’ve been watching for so long; isn’t it time for you to show yourself?”
Li Mo took a step forward and said coldly.
His words left everyone present in confusion.
Aside from the soldiers of Loulan and the Chiyou Tribe, there were only a few of them from the Yin-Yang School left.
And Lord Donghuang, clad in his black robe, was easy to recognize.
It would be impossible for him to be here without anyone noticing.
“National Advisor truly possesses profound strength; even my avatar in the void could not escape your notice.”
Suddenly, an empty voice echoed through the great hall.
A star map slowly materialized in the air, and Donghuang Taiyi’s tall black figure emerged from the star map.
“I have met Lord Donghuang.”
Several elders of the Yin-Yang School hurriedly bowed.
However, Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess turned a blind eye to this.
After all, they had already betrayed; there was no need for them to bow any longer.
“Lord Donghuang, you truly have patience; aren’t you afraid I will kill all your Yin-Yang disciples?”
Li Mo’s first action upon arriving here was to search for Donghuang Taiyi’s figure.
If it weren’t for his unique perception, he would not have discovered him at all.
This old fellow had concealed himself in the void, completely undetectable to the naked eye.
But just because something couldn’t be seen doesn’t mean it couldn’t be scanned.
Initially, Li Mo was on guard against an ambush from Donghuang Taiyi, but he later realized that he had no intention of attacking.
Understanding this, he quickly figured it out.
Donghuang Taiyi wanted to wait until he searched for the Chiyou Magic Sword and the War Demon God before making his move, benefiting as a fisherman.
However, he hadn’t expected his whereabouts to be exposed.
“I will hold him off; you all go fetch the Chiyou Magic Sword.”
Li Mo slightly tilted his head and instructed Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess.
Fei Yan was just a step away from reaching the Spirit Realm, but facing someone who had been in that realm for a long time like Donghuang Taiyi, she was currently no match.
The only one here who could contend with Donghuang Taiyi was Li Mo.
The Moon Goddess asked, “Where is it?”
Li Mo pointed at the ground with his toe: “Underground, the spot where Da Shiming just fell in is the entrance.”
His current perception spanned over ten miles; nothing hidden below could escape him.
There were two layers underground, with an entrance but no exit.
So locking Da Shiming inside posed no worry of her escaping.
The Grand Priestess, hearing this, had no time to marvel at how Li Mo knew.
Upon hearing that they were going to retrieve the Chiyou Magic Sword, she immediately opposed: “No, the Chiyou Magic Sword must not be touched.”
The Moon Goddess replied coldly, “That’s not up to you!”
As she spoke, she snatched the Grand Priestess’s staff from Fei Yan’s hand and plunged it into the ground.
Li Mo took a bundle from his robe and threw it to Fei Yan.
“These should be the keys to activate the War Demon God; take them down.”
Inside the bundle was the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon!
However, after receiving the bundle, Fei Yan didn’t go down; she bit her lip, her gaze at Li Mo complex, and she gently stepped back.
This expression immediately made Li Mo sense that something was off.
Fei Yan had always obeyed his words; why was she now acting differently?
“Hahaha, hahahaha!”
At that moment, Donghuang Taiyi, who had been silent, suddenly burst into laughter.
…………求鲜花….
Instantly, Li Mo pieced everything together!
Donghuang Taiyi’s earlier demeanor had been too calm!
Fei Yan was the Dongjun of the Yin-Yang School, and the Moon Goddess was its protector.
These two pivotal figures within the Yin-Yang School had defected; anyone would be enraged.
But since the moment he appeared, Donghuang Taiyi had not even asked a single question.
“Fei Yan, you—”
Li Mo’s expression changed dramatically!
“I’m sorry!”
Fei Yan bit her lip, tightly grasping the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon that Li Mo had just given her, retreating once more.
“Moon Goddess.”
Li Mo turned to face the Moon Goddess.
If Fei Yan’s betrayal was fake, then what about the Moon Goddess?
As expected, the Moon Goddess moved beside Fei Yan, holding the Grand Priestess hostage.
Her tone remained calm: “I am the protector of the Yin-Yang School.”
The Grand Priestess’s mind instantly turned to mush.
What was happening?
How did the same faction suddenly become enemies?
Li Mo felt as though he had been struck a thousand times in the chest.
Setting aside the Moon Goddess, among them, only Fei Yan’s status could be compared to Jing Ni’s.
His trust in her was undoubtedly implicit.
But now…
“Dongjun, Moon Goddess, hurry over!”
Finally, Donghuang Taiyi subdued his laughter and commanded.
…
“Yes!”
Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess instantly shifted, joining the ranks of the Yin-Yang School.
“National Advisor, do you really think my Yin-Yang disciples would betray so easily?”
“Did you intentionally make them do this?”
Donghuang Taiyi snorted disdainfully: “Hmph! If it weren’t for this, how could I gain your trust, and how would you hand over the Seven…
“You want the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon from them? National Advisor, you are still too young; the most unreliable thing in this world is love!”
He paused and continued, “However, you should be content that I can have the Dongjun of the Yin-Yang School and the Protector serve you for so long.”
After speaking, Donghuang Taiyi extended his hand toward Fei Yan.
He gestured for her to hand over the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon to him.
Everyone from the Yin-Yang School was still in a daze.
It was only now that they realized Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess’s betrayal was fake, simply to gain Li Mo’s trust and secure the entire Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon!
Fei Yan slowly handed over the package.
Just as Donghuang Taiyi was about to take it, he suddenly turned around.
With a burst of brilliant light, he unexpectedly struck at the Moon Goddess.
The Moon Goddess’s expression changed; her right hand threw the Grand Priestess toward Li Mo, while her left hand quickly changed the gesture, erecting a defensive light barrier in front of herself.
In that instant, Donghuang Taiyi sensed the killing intent from the Moon Goddess.
As an old fox, he immediately realized that the Moon Goddess intended to attack him.
Furious, Donghuang Taiyi shouted, “You have betrayed me!”
“And me!”
On the other side, Fei Yan, who had just been obedient, silently condensed a “Dragon’s Energy” and struck fiercely at Donghuang Taiyi’s back, diverting his blow meant for the Moon Goddess while also dealing him a heavy injury!
The ambushing senior sisters wasted no time and swiftly returned to Li Mo’s side.
Donghuang Taiyi was sent flying for several dozen meters from Fei Yan’s strike, a mouthful of black blood spouting from beneath his hood!
Li Mo leaped and caught the Grand Priestess that the Moon Goddess had thrown.
As soon as he landed, Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess also appeared beside him.
At this moment, the members of the Yin-Yang School were dumbfounded!
What was happening exactly?
Which side were the Dongjun and the Moon Goddess on?
Even they couldn’t understand, let alone the bewildered Grand Priestess.
After stabilizing himself following Fei Yan’s strike, Donghuang Taiyi roared angrily, “You have betrayed me!”
“Fool, I may be young, but that’s still better than being old and confused like you.”
Li Mo took the package back from Fei Yan and tucked it into his robe.
