The whole sect is full of villains, but the junior sister has a hole in her brain

A month later.

Chao Zhao appeared in Tianyong City in a low-key manner.

As soon as she walked into the largest and most prosperous city in Zhongzhou, she smelled an unusual scent, as if a storm was about to come.

She frowned.

[…I don’t feel well.]

[My Lord, me too.]

So, each man with a sword endured the discomfort and Chao Zhao skillfully climbed over the high wall of the Huo family's residence. He eavesdropped at the corner and found out the courtyard where Fu Xunying lived.

......

When Fu Xunying saw the person who suddenly appeared in front of him, he was stunned for a moment.

“… Chao Zhao?!”

she exclaimed.

"Why are you so surprised?"

Chao Zhao walked up quickly, grabbed her wrist and walked into the house.

Fu Xunying matched her movements and replied, "Of course, you've been gone for almost half a year!"

After Fu Xunying's reminder, Chao Zhao finally reacted.

It has indeed been half a year.

"Let's not talk about that. Did something happen in Tianyong City? I felt something was wrong when I entered the city."

"Yes."

Fu Xunying let out a heavy sigh, "Have you heard of the Hehuan Sect?"

"Hehuan Sect?"

Chao Zhao was stunned for a moment, and his mind flashed with memories of the Hehuan Sect. "You mean the only sect that stood in Zhongzhou three hundred years ago?"

"Correct."

Fu Xunying nodded. "The Hehuan Sect disappeared without a trace after the war between the two tribes, leaving only a sealed old site... But three months ago, the old site of the Hehuan Sect suddenly appeared. A group of people who called themselves the Hehuan Sect began to recruit disciples and claimed that they could help mortals without spiritual power to cultivate."

Chao Zhao's eyes fixed.

The existence of the Hehuan Sect is very special.

After all, this is a sect that can stand firm in Zhongzhou where there are many aristocratic families, not to mention that the previous leader of the Hehuan Sect was one of the seven Fenghua people.

The fall of the Hehuan Sect at that time also left many people puzzled.

Chao Zhao asked, "What's the reaction from the noble families?"

"All...weird?"

Fu Xunying tilted his head and thought hard for a long time before finding a description, "They are very secretive about this."

Mortals make up the vast majority of the immortal world, and there are very few people who can awaken their spiritual roots and embark on the path of cultivation. Therefore, the conditions offered by the Hehuan Sect are enough to attract most people.

——But how can I practice Taoism if I don’t have any spiritual roots?

This is completely against the laws of heaven and earth, and the people of the Hehuan Sect cannot be unaware of this...so their purpose in luring mortals is worth investigating.

"I see."

Chao Zhao suddenly made a decision.

"You don't want to investigate?"

Fu Xunying looked at her expression and guessed what she was thinking.

"This matter is too complicated. My uncle hasn't been home for a long time because of this matter. The noble families who participated in the suppression of the Fallen Demon Alliance have also kept silent about it after returning."

Chao Zhao's expression remained unchanged: "Then we must check it out."

Fu Xunying stared at her, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Thousands of words finally turned into just one sentence: "...Then you must pay attention to safety."

She is not strong enough and going with him would only cause trouble for Chao Zhao.

"rest assured."

Zhao blinked, "They can't sense my spiritual power, which is absolutely necessary for stealth."

Fu Xunying was amused by her words.

"Yes, they can't even notice you."

......

Chao Zhao acted decisively. In the middle of the night, he went to the so-called Hehuan Sect headquarters according to the location given to him by Fu Xunying.

The headquarters of the Hehuan Sect is located one hundred miles away from Tianyong City.

It is said that when the Hehuan Sect fell, the entire base was quietly leveled, leaving only some dilapidated ruins.

But now, the Hehuan Sect stands there again, with bright lights, people coming and going, and along the way there are many mortals who come here "because of its reputation".

Chao Zhao glanced at the long team, and relying on the fact that others could not detect the fluctuations of his spiritual power, he boldly rushed into the interior of the Hehuan Sect.

Suddenly noticing a commotion ahead, Chao Zhao found a shelter and hid himself.

"How come you don't have any sincerity at all?!"

"I've been here for so long, I'm one of the first to join, but why can't I enter the Tao?"

"Don't tell me those useless things!"

"........."

When Chao Zhao heard the voice, he felt inexplicably familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

She looked around and approached the place calmly.

Chao Zhao's gaze swept forward, and the next moment he was stunned.

——Wang Liu?!

The person arguing with a middle-aged man in charge in front was Wang Liu who had run away from home before.

He put his hands on his hips and said to the manager opposite him with a look of righteousness: "I told you a long time ago that this young master has someone in his heart!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he stared at the steward warily, "You He Huan Sect, are you guys trying to scam me? I've been here for so long and I haven't gained anything!"

"???"

Hearing what he said, the manager was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

You insist on keeping your chastity and yet you blame them? !

"Wang Liu!"

His eyes darkened, "I'll give you one last chance. If you refuse to cooperate, then you won't be able to practice in this life!"

After saying this, the steward was afraid that Wang Liu would anger him again, so he shook his sleeves and left impatiently.

"cut."

Wang Liu curled his lips and walked back on his own, "Do you really think you can threaten me, young master—"

What does it mean to meet love at the corner?

When Wang Liu turned a corner and saw Chao Zhao suddenly appear in front of him, he immediately understood the meaning of that sentence.

"Chao, Chao Zhao?!"

He couldn't hide his shock, and was a little incoherent due to excitement, "You...you...this isn't a dream, is it? Why are you here?"

"come over."

Chao Zhao looked around and dragged Wang Liu to a dark corner, setting up an invisible barrier to prevent the outside world from eavesdropping and peeping.

"...It's really you."

Wang Liu was in a trance.

He looked down at his wrist that was held by Chao Zhao, and his face suddenly turned red, spreading all the way to the back of his ears.

Fortunately, it’s dark here and I can’t see anything.

Zhao Zhao rolled his eyes: "I was just about to ask you, your sister said you ran away from home, how come you are here?"

"this......"

Wang Liu's eyes were a little evasive and his tone became hesitant.

Chao Zhao glared at him: "Tell the truth."

"Oh."

Wang Liu suddenly became serious.

"My father said that I had no talent for cultivation. I refused to accept this and thought about going out to try my luck. But I met this group of people along the way... They said they could help me cultivate, so I followed them."

After he finished speaking, he hurriedly added, "But now I feel more and more that the Hehuan Sect is a fraud!"

"real."

Wang Liu quickly testified for himself, "The atmosphere here is too weird, especially every night, someone disappears... Fortunately, I am smart and have been holding them back."

Zhao Zhao stared at him with a complicated expression.

——Perhaps fools have good fortune, or maybe Wang Liu is really good at pretending to be stupid, which is why the people of the Hehuan Sect have kept him until now.
