Chapter 562 Traitor

"Fellow Daoist Huang, you are joking. Both of you are here to watch the ceremony. It has nothing to do with me." Ye Chunyang touched his nose. Although he didn't want to explain, some misunderstandings still needed to be clarified.

The yellow-robed monk smiled but said nothing, but his eyes seemed to have a deeper meaning.

"Well, since your sect's ceremony is tomorrow, Fellow Daoist Huang should arrange accommodation for us first. I am a little tired from traveling by boat and car, and I want to have a good rest." Master Ruoyuan said impatiently.

"It is the junior who is rude. Please wait for a moment, Master Ruoyuan!"

The yellow-robed monk smiled and then offered a token.

The token was square and engraved with a bright red rune. After the yellow-robed monk raised one hand, he immediately cast two spells with the other hand. The token was shining, and countless bright lights fell from the sky like a meteor shower.

Then, Ye Chunyang and others saw an amazing scene.

There was a glimmer of light on the lake, and a row of palaces and buildings seemed to appear out of thin air, suddenly appearing in front of the four people.

People were coming and going on the lake, full of vitality, and those pavilions and towers, and the magnificent golden palaces were all built by the water, with fish and birds playing below, and cranes and spirit birds, just like the scenery of a fairy mountain and blessed land.

The yellow-robed monk raised his hand and a wave of shocking waves rolled up on the lake. A colorful bridge of light extended from the shore under the volcano and stopped steadily in front of them.

"Master Ruoyuan, three Taoist friends, please!"

The yellow-robed monk smiled at them and took the lead.

Master Ruoyuan looked around and followed indifferently.

Afterwards, Mu Ling'er and Ruqin were amazed by the beautiful scenery that looked like the lakeside in the south of the Yangtze River, and couldn't help but look around curiously.

During this period, they couldn't help but reach into the lake and try to catch a fish.

However, the fish in the lake were very strange. As soon as they were caught, they disappeared as if they were proficient in magic. When they looked again, they appeared in the lake again.

The two women praised this again and again. Such a wonder was unprecedented. In addition, the yellow-robed monk explained the various wonders of Lexuan Mountain to them along the way, which made them even more fascinated and happy.

Ye Chunyang was calm and unmoved.

"The guest room I prepared for you is in front. Please follow me."

After walking for about half an incense stick of time, the yellow-robed monk pointed forward and stopped.

Ye Chunyang raised his head and saw several attics in front of him in a row, suspended above the lake with fairy clouds as a backdrop. There were several formation flags on the roof, forming a grand spirit gathering formation that enveloped the surroundings, allowing the spiritual energy on the volcano to be continuously transmitted in.

Judging from the style and supporting facilities of this attic, it is also a first-class residence in Lexuan Mountain.

"I wonder if Master Ruoyuan is satisfied with this?" The yellow-robed monk showed a flattering smile.

"It suits my taste very well. Your sect is thoughtful." Master Ruoyuan nodded with satisfaction.

"In that case, Master Ruoyuan and the three Taoist friends will rest here for one night. When the viewing ceremony is held tomorrow, I will come to invite them."

The yellow-robed monk said with a smile, and welcomed the four people into the attic: "The major sects will arrive one after another, and I still need to go to receive them. I can only leave for the time being. If the four of you need anything, just tell the disciples under the sect."

"No problem, you can leave now."

Master Ruoyuan waved his whisk and took Ye Chunyang and the other two into the attic to rest.

In addition to several independent rooms, there is a hall in the attic. As soon as you enter, a Taoist boy will light incense and a maid will serve tea.

Master Ruoyuan sat down with the three of them, and after a brief perception, he said: "This time, a treasure has been unearthed in Lexuan Mountain, which will definitely attract covetousness. You must be careful when watching the ceremony tomorrow. If you find anything wrong, report it to me immediately, and do not act without authorization."

Mu Ling'er and Ruqin responded softly.

Ye Chunyang nodded slightly. The upper-level spiritual treasure is not an ordinary treasure. The news that such a treasure has been unearthed in Lexuan Mountain has probably spread throughout the entire Tianchong Mountain. It seems calm at this time, but in fact, the undercurrent is surging. If it weren't for the order of Elder Yi, Ye Chunyang would never want to wade into this muddy water with his character. Now he can only take it easy.

"Nephew Ye, Ruqin and Ling'er are still shallow in cultivation. If there is really a change tomorrow, I can only take care of them if I can't split myself."

Master Ruoyuan seemed to remember something. After looking at Ruqin and Mu Ling'er, he told Ye Chunyang earnestly.

Ye Chunyang was stunned for a moment, then said calmly, "Master, rest assured. I will do my best to protect the two junior sisters."

Master Ruoyuan was very satisfied with what he said, and said, "I know that although your cultivation is only in the middle stage of magic power, your real strength can at least compete with the late stage. If something unexpected really happens this time, you don't have to fight hard. Preserving your strength is the most important thing."

Ye Chunyang nodded silently.

"Okay, that's all I want to say. You can go back and rest. If anything else happens after watching the ceremony tomorrow, you can return to the sect."

Master Ruoyuan gave his last instructions and waved his hand to signal the three to leave.

Ruqin and Mu Ling'er said goodbye and went to their rooms on the second floor.

Ye Chunyang had no requirements for food, clothing, housing and transportation. He just needed a quiet place. After bidding farewell to Master Ruoyuan, he chose a room at random.

The interior was not luxurious, but it was also made of gold bricks and tiles, with pearly red walls. There were spiritual tea and precious sandalwood incense on the table, which was obviously carefully decorated.

Ye Chunyang didn't care about it. He glanced out the window, and seeing that it was getting dark, he sat cross-legged on the bed and entered into a state of meditation.

While Ye Chunyang and his party were taking a rest, under the huge volcano of Lexuan Mountain, in a cave filled with earthly fire aura, several old men were surrounding a giant bronze cauldron, their eyes wild and talking excitedly.

"Senior Brother Zihua, after tonight, this spiritual treasure will be completed. When the time comes tomorrow, it can be released."

An old man in black with a thin face stared into the cauldron, unable to conceal his excitement.

"Yes, this treasure is the highest grade one that our Lexuan Mountain has ever refined. Its power is immeasurable. As it serves as a sect-suppressing treasure, Wutianmen will not dare to attack me rashly."

Several old men around him also nodded.

What is refined in this bronze tripod is the most important thing in Lexuan Mountain for thousands of years. It can be imagined that if this treasure becomes the top one, it will definitely bring huge benefits to the sect.

Although it may not be able to compete with the top forces like Tianqimen, at least it can defend one or two when Wutianmen attacks.

"Junior brothers, please don't be too happy. Although this treasure is extremely powerful, but now that the matter has been leaked, Wutianmen is watching in the dark. Whether the spiritual treasure can be safely left in the sect tomorrow is a matter of two minds."

An old man with silver hair and a Confucian shirt said with a deep frown. This man looked familiar. He was the master of Lexuan Mountain, Zihua Zhenren, who had gone to Tianqi Sect to discuss the alliance.

"Senior Brother Zihua is right. If not, why do we need to invite various factions to watch the ceremony? Youdao is that people's hearts are unpredictable. Although the visitors are all allies, the birth of such a valuable treasure will inevitably arouse people's hearts, and allies may also turn into enemies. , this move is called a town, but if you are not careful, you will lead the wolf into the house. "

An old man on the left said solemnly.

As soon as this person finished speaking, the other person frowned and said, "It is said that the matter of me sending a sacrifice to refine the upper-level spiritual treasure was a secret, but it suddenly spread throughout the entire world of immortality overnight. Don't you think it's a little strange?"

"Junior brother, do you mean there is a traitor in the family?" Master Zihua's face turned cold when he heard this.

The old man who spoke pondered for a moment, with a gloomy look in his eyes, and said: "This matter is just a guess, but before this, the matter of senior brother refining spiritual treasures has always been a secret of our sect. If someone inside had not leaked the information, it would have been impossible for the outside world to do so. Someone knows."

Master Zihua frowned, and several old men around him were also silent.

"The matter of the traitor is of great importance. You should not speculate without any actual basis. Otherwise, it will cause internal strife in the sect. If there is a traitor, it will alert the snake."

After pondering for a long time, Master Zihua finally breathed out slowly.

"Senior brother is right, but I have a plan to prevent the traitor from showing up." The old man nodded slightly and sneered.

"Oh? Junior brother, do you have any good ideas?" Headmaster Zihua asked.

The old man looked at the huge cauldron in front of him and said: "Now that the Lingbao is almost complete, the cauldron will be successfully opened tomorrow. If there is really a traitor in the sect, the Lingbao will definitely be unable to hold back when it comes to the cauldron. As long as he shows his flaws, we can only You need to pay attention to capture it.”

Headmaster Zihua was moved when he heard this, nodded and chuckled.

"Junior brother, what you say makes sense. In this way, the other party will not be alerted, and it will be guaranteed to be foolproof. No matter how high the traitor is, he can't withstand the attacks of us and others. If he is caught by me, his life will be worse than death!"

As he spoke, he glanced at the old men around him, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally.

Everyone was silent for a moment, and some people's eyes flickered, but in the end they all fell silent.

…

As the sky dawned the next day, several streaks of light flew outside Lexuan Mountain one after another, and the disciples began to get busy.

at the same time. There was a trace of astonishing spiritual energy slowly spreading in the huge volcano, and there was a soft whistle from time to time. The entire Lexuan Mountain was under a state of vitality.

Ye Chunyang had already woken up. When he walked out of the attic and joined Master Ruoyuan and the other three, the yellow-robed monks from Lexuan Mountain were already waiting outside.

"How about Master Ruoyuan and the three fellow Taoists resting last night?"

The yellow-robed monk greeted the three of them with a smile.

Master Ruoyuan nodded calmly, glanced at the yellow-robed monk, then looked at the volcano behind the attic, and said: "Looking at this spiritual energy, it should be that your sect's spiritual treasure is about to win the championship? I don't know where to go to watch the ceremony?"

"Master Ruoyuan's perception is true. After being refined by Master Master and several elders last night, the spiritual treasure is now perfect. The viewing platform is at the top of the treasure mountain. Please follow me."

The yellow-robed monk chuckled and led the way to the four of them.

Master Ruoyuan glanced at Ye Chunyang and the others, and immediately flew into the clouds and mist, following the yellow-robed monk towards the top of the mountain.

Ye Chunyang looked at the mountain top standing among the clouds, and felt something secretly. He felt a little strange in his heart, but without saying a word, he followed Ruo Yuan Master along with Ruqin and Mu Ling'er and landed on the top of the mountain.
