When Gu Hai returned in the evening, a frown was etched on his face. He looked worried.

After Jiang Ming brought a seat for his master, he brewed a pot of tea as he asked, “What’s wrong, Master? Do we have any news about Junior Sister yet?”

“No,” Gu Hai said as he shook his head, “Nevertheless, your Junior Sister is very lucky so I’m sure she’s safe.”

“I agree.” Jiang Ming nodded. After tea was brewed, he poured a cup of tea for Gu Hai. Then, he said with a smile, “Junior Sister used to say she broke the record in Jiuyang Sect when she entered the 9th Stage of the Golden Core Realm. How can anything bad happen to a person who’s so lucky like her? Don’t worry. She’ll be back soon.”

Gu Hai forced a smile on his face and said, “I hope so.” After taking a sip from the teacup, he continued to say, “The Sect Master received news that a powerful foreign sect has moved to the Eastern Region’s Hai Province. Not only is there the resurgence of the devil sects, but now, there’s also a possibility of invasion by a foreign sect. This is a truly troublesome year!”

“Powerful foreign sect? How powerful? How can a foreign sect thrive in Hai Province?” Jiang Ming toyed with the teacup in his hand as he said, “The Jiang clan, Feiyun Sect, and Tian Shui Sect are the three main forces in Hai Province. Although individually they aren’t as strong as Jiuyang Sect, collectively, they’re as strong as us. How can they let a foreign sect move into their territory? Moreover, our Jiuyang Sect is located in Qing Province that neighbors Hai Province. Isn’t the foreign sect afraid of our sect attacking them?”

The Eastern Region has nine provinces: Feng Province, Yu Province, Lei Province, Yun Province, Shui Province, Wu Province, Mu Province, Qing Province, and Hai Province. Hai Province was located near the sea, neighboring Qing Province.

“I heard the Sect Master said that the foreign sect is called Bishui Sect. It’s powerful, and it moved in quietly without alerting anyone. It destroyed the Feiyun Sect and subjugated the Jiang clan. The Tianshui Sect has just requested our assistance,” Gu Hai explained. He smiled wryly as he continued to say, “In the early days, Bishui Sect would’ve been met with the fury of the entire Eastern Region. Alas, currently, there’s the resurgence of the devil sects. Bishui Sect has also announced that now they’ve moved here, they’re willing to obey the Qingyun Sect and fight the devil sects to death. From the looks of it, it’s likely that the Bishui Sect had bribed the Qingyun Sect with some rare and precious gifts. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have had the guts to act in such a manner.”

“Bishui Sect?” Jiang Ming frowned.

A few months ago, when Jiang Ming was chasing after Ge Changqing and Mu Lei of the Qingyun Sect, he had met Lan Shi, the elder of Bishui Sect. At that time, Lan Shi was plotting with the Sima clan on how to gain a foothold in the Eastern Region. Based on how Lan Shi had tried to save Mu Lei at that time to curry favor and forge a connection with the Qingyun Sect at that time, it was clear the Bishui Sect had yet to form any relationship with the Qingyun Sect at that time.

After Lan Shi’s death, Bishui Sect should be in chaos. Jiang Ming did not understand how they could have made such a strong move in Hai Province after only a few months. Nevertheless, he was certain, just like his master, that the Bishui Sect must have given the Qingyun Sect something incredibly precious. Otherwise, Qingyun Sect certainly would not have overlooked Bishui’s sudden move to the Eastern Region’s Hai Province. After all, Qingyun Sect was the Eastern Region’s Sacred Land. Although there were still many uncertainties, it was likely that war would break out sooner or later in the Eastern Region if this continued.

Meanwhile, Jiang Ming could see that his master was still worried about Linglong. It was not difficult to tell that his master was afraid the young girl who had yet to be found had fallen into the hands of the devil sect. He could only continue to say reassuringly, “Master, don’t worry. I’m sure Junior Sister is safe!”

Jiang Ming could naturally empathize with his master. After all, if he did not have the Human Path Records, he would likely be even more worried than his master.

Gu Hai only nodded. Following that, he asked Jiang Ming to cook him a sumptuous meal for dinner to satiate his appetite before he returned to the main hall in the main peak again.

After Gu Hai left, Jiang Ming cleaned up before he flew up to the rooftop and sat on the reclining chair. Then, he called up the Human Path Records as he thought about the Bishui Sect.

Name: Jiang Momo

Gender: Female

Cultivation base: Late-stage Foundation Establishment Realm.

Background: Disciple of Jiuyang Sect’s Jiaoyang Peak (Note: She’s actually from the Bishui Sect; she’s also the daughter of Fairy Shuiyue)

Relationship: 63

Status: She has received an order from Bishui Sect to send information about the Jiuyang Sect. The information that was requested pertained to the strongest expert’s cultivation base, the number of experts, the state of the Formation at the mountain entrance, and so on. She’s currently facing a dilemma. After all, although she was from Bishui Sect, she grew up and was raised in Jiuyang Sect.

“Interesting!” Jiang Ming muttered under his breath. He had no conflict with Momo. In fact, he had a rather good impression of her. However, if she were to betray the Jiuyang Sect, then he would not hesitate to act. He would kill her as soon as the chance presented itself.

‘Bishui Sect is where she was born, but Jiuyang Sect is where she was raised. Indeed, it’s a rather difficult choice to make,’ Jiang Ming thought to himself. He wondered how she had come to join the Jiuyang Sect but could not come up with an answer.

Following that, he wrote down the names of disciples at Jiaoyang Peak on the Human Path Records to check if there were any more spies from the Bishui Sect. Fortunately, there was none.

‘I should continue checking daily…’

Jiang Ming did not withdraw the Human Path Records. Instead, he flipped to his Junior Sister’s page to check on her again. Her cultivation base was still at the Dao Seed Realm. From her status, he learned that she had left the ruin after collecting the treasures in the Tomb of Extreme Path.

‘Junior Sister should be returning to the sect now!’ Jiang Ming was overjoyed. He was filled with the urge to go beyond the mountain entrance. After all, he was no longer restricted by the sect’s Formation. With his current knowledge about Formations, he could easily break the Formation with his eyes closed. Although he had only studied the Basic Formations given by the system, they were judged as basic by the system. This meant the Formations were not necessarily basic.

After leaving the sect’s estate, he discovered he had nowhere to go. Hence, he could only smile wryly and return to the mountain.

He returned to the rooftop again and looked at the surrounding mountains. At the same time, he had called up the Human Path Records again. After looking at his Junior Sister and Jiang Momo’s information again, he looked at Yue Cheng’s information as well.

Jiang Ming sighed when he saw Jiang Momo’s status. He learned that she was now preparing to leave the sect under the pretext of waiting for Zi Linglong’s return. In fact, she was leaving to send out information to the Bishui Sect.

He thought about leaving the mountain again to check on Jiang Momo before he decided against it for now. With just a thought, he extended a strand of his divine consciousness out. He was very cautious since he was not certain he would be able to hide his aura from First Seat Yin Yue. However, when the scene in Jiaoyang Peak appeared before his eyes, blood almost gushed out of his nostrils.

“Ah! I’m sorry! I don’t mean it!”

The disciples at Jiaoyang Peak were all female. Through his divine consciousness, he saw a wonderful scene. He saw a few disciples cultivating quietly as they soaked in the hot spring, two disciples tumbling playfully on the bed, and another two cultivating in a bed of flowers as they held hands.

Usually, one would be able to see a scene as it was through divine consciousness. However, perhaps, his divine consciousness was different. He could see through things like robes and what underneath them as though he had x-ray vision.

When he saw this scene, he was filled with embarrassment, anticipation, and a strong urge to take action. It took him quite a while to calm down.

After a while, when he finally found Jiang Momo, he sent a strand of his consciousness into her mind to hypnotize her before he quietly withdrew his consciousness without leaving any traces behind.

Jiang Ming massaged his temples. When he looked in the direction of Jiaoyang Peak, his eyes sparkled. He had to inhale deeply and clear his mind of distracting thoughts before he finally calmed down again. He thought to himself, ‘No wonder people say that beauties can cause the downfalls of heroes.’

Shortly afterward, he checked on junior sister again.

“F*ck!”

He discovered she had run into two devil experts. He did not hesitate and hurriedly flew away.

…

At the same time.

At Jiaoyang Peak.

Jiang Momo was kneeling in front of Yin Yue.

“Momo, what is it that you need to talk about that can’t wait until tomorrow?”

Without any warning, Jiang Momo blurted out, “Master, I’m originally a disciple of Bishui Sect.”

“What?!” Needless to say, Yin Yue was shocked by Jiang Momo’s sudden confession..
