Chapter 75: She has how many aliases? (3)
At this moment, Elder Zhou was pacing in the room, her face covered in clouds. She knew very well that after these past few incidents, she had become a thorn in the side of the new Saintess! What’s worse, the Saintess was the heir to the Sect Leader. If she didn’t do something to save herself, her future would be worrying!
“Now most of the high-level figures in the sect are on that girl’s side. I am basically on my own, what can I do?”
Elder Zhou chuckled self-mockingly. After much thought, the only person she could rely on was Hua Yu, the former Saintess. Moreover, the other party had left her a message before leaving, hoping to continue their cooperation.
Elder Zhou wanted to contact Hua Yu, but she also understood that such behavior was equivalent to being a traitor. Once discovered, there would be no good consequences, so she hesitated for a moment.
“No, I can’t just sit here and wait for death.”
After struggling for a long time, Elder Zhou gritted her teeth and made a decision. She then used her spiritual sense to scan all directions, especially the residence of the new Saintess on Jade Peak. After all, that girl had a Recording Mirror, and if she were caught, it would be utterly finished.
Elder Zhou carefully scanned the residence of the new Saintess and found that the other party had used her spiritual sense to shield the courtyard, making it impossible to see what was inside unless she forcibly broke through.
Elder Zhou was not surprised by this. All members of the Hua Rong Sect did this. After all, no one was willing to have their secrets exposed to everyone’s sight. The Cultivation World was nothing like the mortal world. Earth walls alone could not provide any concealment, so a spiritual sense shield had to be set up.
“It seems she is at home.”
Elder Zhou deduced subconsciously. However, she was still very vigilant and scanned the surroundings of the Hui Xin Peak with her spiritual sense, confirming that the new Saintess or her clone was not near her residence, only then did she feel completely at ease.
Elder Zhou set up a spiritual sense shield and crushed a soundproofing talisman before taking out the Thousand Li Sound Transmission Device to contact Hua Yu. She never dreamed that every move she made was being watched by a nearby “invisible person” using a Recording Mirror.
“Elder Zhou, you’re contacting me now. I thought you weren’t going to cooperate with me anymore?”
Hua Yu said sarcastically. Her words showed that she was still obsessed with the title of Saintess.
“How could that be? My person…”
“What kind of Saintess? Don’t you know?”
Elder Zhou immediately flattered herself.
“I naturally know Elder Zhou’s character, but I also know your situation. When we cooperated before, you offended that little slut. Do you really think you’ll have a good life after she becomes Sect Leader?”
Hua Yu said pointedly.
Qi Huang was very surprised to hear this. She didn’t expect Hua Yu to be much smarter than she had imagined, and that she had also predicted that she would retaliate.
“What exactly does the Saintess want to say?”
Elder Zhou said with some annoyance.
“Isn’t my meaning very clear? You have no other choice but to continue cooperating with me. I hope Elder Zhou can understand.”
Hua Yu said directly.
“Of course I understand, that’s why I contacted you, isn’t it? I have good news for you this time, that new Saintess’s name is fake.”
Elder Zhou said quickly, fawning.
“What?”
Hua Yu’s voice suddenly amplified.
“What’s wrong?”
Elder Zhou was startled.
“This is not good news at all, it’s simply a bad omen, extremely unlucky.”
Hua Yu almost yelled.
“Why? Her name is fake, which means that even if the Cao family carves her name on the Immortal Tablet, it’s useless. No one will compete with you for your husband. Isn’t this a great thing?”
Elder Zhou was baffled.
“Elder Zhou, do I seem so short-sighted in your eyes? Husband is naturally important, but achieving immortality is more important. That Jiang Ling possesses a secret technique, and with only eight parts, her cultivation speed is so exaggerated. What if I obtained it?”
Hua Yu reminded.
Although Qi Huang had already guessed the opponent’s motives, she was still slightly shocked when she heard it personally. She thought Hua Yu was just a love-struck fool, but she didn’t expect this woman to be a love-struck fool with a brain.
“So, you want to let her enter the Cao family, and then slowly pry the truth out of her?”
Elder Zhou realized.
“You are still quite clever. If a mere Huashen-stage novice like her enters the Cao family, won’t she be at my mercy? I’m not afraid she won’t reveal the truth.”
“I’m not afraid she won’t reveal the secret technique. Then I’ll kill her. Wouldn’t my goal be achieved?”
Hua Yu stated her ambition.
“Saintess is truly resourceful. I admire you from the bottom of my heart!”
Elder Zhou couldn’t help but praise.
“Hmph, do you think you can become Saintess just by cultivation level? Follow me properly, and you’ll be rewarded handsomely after we succeed.”
Hua Yu painted a rosy picture.
“Whatever the Saintess commands.”
Elder Zhou quickly expressed her stance. Seeing how resourceful the former Saintess was, her resolve to be a traitor became even firmer.
“What’s most important for you now is to find out that little slut’s real name as soon as possible. I must make her enter the Cao family.”
Hua Yu commanded.
“No need. To reassure the high-level figures of the Hua Rong Sect, she has already confessed. Her real name is Huang Ling, Huang from yellow, Ling from bell.”
Elder Zhou revealed everything.
“Very good, I’ll remember this great contribution of yours. After this is done, I will do my best to help you become a Grand Elder of the Hua Rong Sect, and make my master obedient to you.”
Hua Yu painted another grand picture.
“Thank you, Saintess!”
Elder Zhou thanked her excitedly. She understood that with the help of the Cao family’s young madam, she could completely do as she pleased in the Hua Rong Sect.
The conversation between the two ended, and Elder Zhou put away the Thousand Li Sound Transmission Device.
…
“Elder Zhou, Elder Zhou, forget about Grand Elder, an underground elder would suit you quite well.”
A hint of mockery appeared on Qi Huang’s face, and then she disappeared from her spot like a phantom. With these scenes, Elder Zhou was doomed.
Qi Huang returned to her residence and shared this good news with her main body.
“When do you plan to give the evidence to the Sect Leader?”
Cheng Hong Ling inquired.
“Don’t panic! What we need most now is time. If we get rid of the Zhou person immediately, who knows what other tricks Hua Yu will come up with? Let’s play with them for now! Doesn’t that Cao Yang like to carve names? This time I’ll let him carve enough!”
Qi Huang made a decision after some thought.
…
On the other side, in the Cao family, Hua Yu immediately told her husband Cao Yang about the matter after receiving the news.
“What did you say? Her name isn’t Jiang Ling, but Huang Ling?”
Cao Yang was also caught off guard.
“Yes, Elder Zhou told me herself. To reassure the high-level figures of the Hua Rong Sect, that little slut personally confessed that Jiang Ling was a fake identity.”
Hua Yu explained.
“Is Elder Zhou reliable?”
Cao Yang asked worriedly.
“Of course she’s reliable. She offended that little slut when she cooperated with me before, and now there’s no turning back.”
Hua Yu said with a cold laugh.
“My wife is indeed far-sighted. If it weren’t for you, the Cao family would have lost face again this time. I’ll go and add ‘Huang Ling’ to the Immortal Tablet now.”
Cao Yang flattered her and then eagerly walked out.
“Add? Why not change?”
Hua Yu asked in confusion.
Cao Yang stopped, and a slight smile curved his lips: “My wife, you don’t understand this. What if this is a smokescreen deliberately released by the Hua Rong Sect? Their purpose is to lure us into changing the name.”
Hua Yu’s expression startled, and then she said, “I never thought of that!”
“So, I’ll directly add the name ‘Huang Ling’. Whether she is called Jiang Ling or Huang Ling, she will not be able to escape my husband’s palm.”
Cao Yang clenched his fist domineeringly.
Next, Cao Yang added the words “Huang Ling” to the Immortal Tablet. As a prodigy of the Cao family, adding one or two names of concubines wouldn’t be questioned by anyone, so there was no need to alert everyone.
“Uncle Wang, please go to the Hua Rong Sect again and tell them I already know Jiang Ling’s true identity and have inscribed her name on the Immortal Tablet. She must enter the Cao mansion before the end of this month, otherwise, she will face the suppression of the Immortal Might.”
Cao Yang then instructed Uncle Wang.
“Yes!”
Uncle Wang took the order and rushed to the Hua Rong Sect again.
