Chapter 256 - In the Pool, Sword Intent
The reason that the forest suddenly went quiet was not because the Heavenly Bestowal Sect expert's words had broken through the hearts of the crowd
No one thought that Chen Changsheng used his treatment to secretly poison Sect Master Fei, because there was no logic behind this argument and no reason for such actions Everyone knew that Chen Changsheng was doted upon by the Pope and supported by the Bureau of Ecclesiastic Education At such a young age, he shocked the world by beco the Principal of the Orthodox Academy No matter how they looked at it, his future prospects were limitless In comparison to these prospects, there was no benefit that could be obtained from the Garden of Zhou that would make him commit such an act
The silence was because everyone there was very curious to know, in the face of such an ill- to react
Chen Changsheng did not give a single response The redness around that Heavenly Bestowal Sect expert's eyes, because of hirief-stricken tears frosheng and Zhexiu turned around and walked out of the forest Senior Tong and Ye Xiaolian casheng gave them a short explanation of what had happened in the forest, then he and Zhexiu took their leave fro the vast world that was the Garden of Zhou
Not long after he left, Senior Tong and two other well-known cultivators took the rest of the cultivators, each of theate was In the procession, another stretcher had appeared The dead body of Sect Master Fei lay upon it Fro would arise froe rock atop a cliff and seeing the processionfelt sos is wrong”
Zhexiu expressionlessly continued, ”When a disagreeardless of whatorders is a necessity if you want to continue to live”
Chen Changsheng did not reply He turned and headed back into the dense forest
As the search and treatressed, ether, dividing into three gardens, all of which were co with each other The problem was that the Garden of Zhou would not open in one day Could it be that all these people would be content to stay put in these beautiful but treasureless gardens for the entire duration?
In the following two days, an evensituation took place One after another, several cultivators died in bizarre fashi+on Regardless of who they ith, further investigation could find no motive As tier Some would probably fall apart under the pressure, while others would becoreater nuardens and enter the Garden of Zhou once acies that were inco to brave these dangers because, in their eyes, to stay with their fellow huerous
Indeed, un to suspect that this was all the plot of the demons, but even now, they still could not believe that the demons were able to infiltrate the Garden of Zhou It uarded by the Solitary Drunk under the Moon, Zhu Luo It was also guarded by His Eminence Archbishop Mei Lisha as well all the priests of the Orthodoxy that specialized in identification Even if it was the matic De in the crowd and enter the Garden of Zhou
Since the deer obviously casheng dipped his legs into the chilly water of the river and let out a sigh of relief
Over these past two days, he had pushed himself across a distance of approximately a thousand li For someone like him, this was an incredibly bitter experience His clothes were caked with dust and his appearance was one of complete exhaustion
In coure It was like this wolf youth had no idea what the word 'tired' azed at the s in the river, he said, ”I still don't think that there's a traitor”
Zhexiu replied, ”Four people have already died by poison Since we've determined that there are no demons in the Garden of Zhou, the poisoner can only be traitor within our own ranks”
This was a very si found it very hard to accept
This war of huainst the demons was a war of extinction It was very rare for either side to produce a traitor
”Although the war still continues at the border of the snowy plain, for the majority of the people on the continent, the war ended otten the terror of the deenocidal war” Zhexiu coldly continued, ”In the snowy plains, I uides for the dest the cultivators that the entered the Garden of Zhou would not be unusual”
Chen Changsheng silently pondered this, then said, ”The reason why I've never believed in the existence of a traitor is because right now, everyone is already beginning to suspect each other I think that this sort of distrust is evenwith thetrait of demons
The demons had no need to enter the Garden of Zhou They only needed to cut off communication between the outside world and the Garden of Zhou The traitor would fan the flames and commit some sinister acts, and then the human cultivators would be thrown into chaos
This sequence of events had occurredcontinued, ”The several hundred Ethereal Opening cultivators here are the future of hust them are many exceptional and powerful individuals The demons can't have enticed that many traitors, so if these several hundred cultivators can not suspect each other, be wary of each other, or even confront each other; as long as their wills can remain united, the demons will never be able to succeed”
Zhexiu impassively said, ”If this were so easy to accomplish, then you huo”
Chen Changsheng remained silent
In these past two days, especially today as he observed the Mountainside Whispering Wood, he had already confirmed that the wills of these several hundred cultivators had already dispersed
He was the leader upon which the Li Palace had conferred a heavy responsibility, so he had a duty to take care of the Orthodoxy's northern sects Gou Hanshi+ had entrusted his beloved juniors to hih even heavier upon his heart
Yet, if the will of the people had dispersed, how could he lead?
”As long as they're in the gardens, they shouldn't encounter any problems All the people that have been poisoned died in the mountains and fields, so we don't need to worry about the people in the gardens The first priority should be to quickly find the other people that are still outside”
Chen Changsheng took his feet out of the water and stood, soaking wet, on a rock Staring off into the horizon, he could faintly see the other two sets of foothills
He had already counted up the cultivators that had been found and gathered in the gardens Froinal number of cultivators that had entered the Garden of Zhou, he was stillone hundred
”There are some people that don't want to be found by you What then?”
