Chapter 318 Knowing
This reply was flawless, and the other party remained silent afterward, showing that they had not suspected anything.

It's certain that the squad leaders of Wuya Sect will communicate with each other using communication talismans; Mo Jiuwei had anticipated this and naturally made preparations accordingly.

Although some things will eventually come to light, the later the better. The longer you keep things from the other party, the more advantageous it is.

Although Qiu Yan and Jiang Rong had died long ago, Chen Lan had people imitating their disciples to leave marks on the road, thus creating the illusion that they had not yet met with disaster.

Signs can be faked, and so can sounds...

The talisman was made by Mo Jiuwei herself, precisely for this purpose.

However, Mo Jiuwei also knew that she could only fool them until tomorrow at the latest, because the day after tomorrow at the latest, the captains of Wuyamen would have to meet to discuss the plan, and then the matter would be exposed.

Among the various teams of the Immortal Sect, some members have already quietly left the team at the captain's behest.

Now that things have come to this point, the Immortal Sect has changed its mind. The Black Cliff Sect must be eliminated, but how and by whom to do so is another matter.

Since the disciples of the Immortal Sect came out to train, they were still lacking in fighting demonic beasts. After all, when it came to playing mind games and having endless tricks up their sleeves, demonic beasts could never compare to humans.

Therefore, after discussion between Captain Chen Lan and Xu Yihan, they decided to use the remaining six hundred Wuya Sect disciples as a whetstone, letting the Xianlai Sect disciples fight against them and learn a thing or two.

Although there are two thousand disciples of the Immortal Sect, not all of them need to fight. For example, alchemists, weapon makers, and talisman masters do not need to fight; they can be responsible for logistics. Ordinary cultivators and sword cultivators are responsible for fighting.

As for the array masters who understand array formations, they would set off beforehand to reach the destination and then begin to set up array formations to act as traps.

With a trap in front of us, we should weaken the enemy's strength first, and kill as many as we can.

In short, everyone was given clear and specific arrangements.

The next day, Meng suddenly turned around and asked, "What did you say?"

"Reporting to you, Steward, we can't find Captain Qiu and Captain Jiang's teams!" The confidant knelt down and reported, "We have found Captain Du's team, and they are joining us."

"Can't find it? What do you mean by 'can't find it'?"

"They... have most likely already perished."

Meng almost fainted and collapsed.

It's really true... How could this happen!
Just today, he sent someone to personally deliver letters to the captains of the other three teams, and asked them to contact him after reading the letters.

Du Ruhai was the first to respond, but Qiu Fang and Jiang Rong remained silent.

Instead of receiving a response from them, the messenger arrived, and what he said shocked Meng.

He said that he went to look for the people according to the marks of the two teams, but he could not find any trace of the two teams.

This is very unusual!
Meng sensed something was wrong, but still held onto a sliver of hope and sent a few more people to search for clues about the two teams separately.

Therefore, he took extra precautions and did not send a telepathic message to the two people as he had done yesterday. Instead, he directly ordered his men to set out to search for them.

But who knew this would be the result!

"That's two teams, two whole teams, six hundred people!" Meng Reng's eyes were bloodshot, his hands were clenched into fists, and he was slamming them on the table. "Six hundred people, how could they disappear so silently! Have you found any traces? Like bloodstains, corpses, or signs of a large-scale fight?" Each team had three hundred people, plus the number of the enemy, the destructive power of the fight must have been extremely strong.

If you go to that area, you will definitely find traces of it.

Even if the bloodstains and the corpse are cleaned up, what about the broken branches, the pits and scratches on the ground? These should leave some trace; they can't all disappear completely.

The subordinate shrank back, knowing he would be scolded if he spoke out, but he couldn't very well make up some evidence, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "No, I didn't see it."

"boom!"

Enraged, Meng Reng swung his hand and smashed the scalding teacup into his subordinate's face.

His subordinate gasped in pain, but dared not move, and could only kneel there with his head on the ground.

"Good, good riddance... Did those six hundred people just vanish into thin air?! Who has such ability!"

To disappear so easily, how strong must the opponent be? At least a Golden Core cultivator!
But where in this secret realm are there any Golden Core cultivators?
Meng was furious, but at the same time, an indescribable fear welled up from the bottom of her heart—

If those two teams have mysteriously disappeared, what about our team?
Meng Reng was naturally very worried about his safety, but now he was even more worried about how to explain things to his father when he got back!
The reason why he was appointed as the captain this time was actually because his father wanted to give him a prestigious title. In everyone's eyes, the Wuya Sect was in the shadows while the Xianlai Sect was in the open. Moreover, although there was a difference in numbers between the two sides, the difference in strength was enough to make up for the difference in numbers.

No matter how you look at it, they are bound to win. Once they successfully bring their fellow disciples back, and with the treasures on the Xianlai Sect disciples' bodies, they will definitely be rewarded for their contributions.

This opportunity would allow me to advance further and gain greater prestige among the disciples, which would be extremely beneficial for my father to hand over the position of sect leader to me!

When Meng Reng accepted the job, he was fully expecting it to be a piece of cake. Even after entering the secret realm and seeing how rich it was, he was still glad that he had defeated his third brother and thus obtained this hard-won opportunity.

but now……

He was starting to regret his actions; things didn't seem to be going as smoothly as they had hoped.

"It must be the Immortal Sect...it can only be them!"

One of his trusted confidants, still somewhat shaken, spoke up, "Besides us and a few other rogue cultivators, the only other people in this secret realm are from the Immortal Sect! It must have been them!"

They had encountered rogue cultivators along the way, and the Wuya Sect would kill them on sight.

Firstly, this is how they've always done things—arbitrarily, unreasonably, and cold-bloodedly.

Secondly, they had important business to attend to in the secret realm and did not want their actions to be interfered with by irrelevant people, so they killed anyone they saw to remove obstacles and prevent the news from leaking out.

Aside from the rogue cultivators and disciples of the Immortal Sect, they didn't see anyone else. Furthermore, the entrance to the secret realm closed shortly after they entered, so other forces had no chance to come even if they wanted to.

In this situation, the Immortal Sect seems to be the unlikely, but the only, answer.

"The Immortal Sect? What gives them the right to do this?!"

"Exactly! What are their strengths compared to ours? How could they possibly kill our six hundred men!"

"It doesn't make sense, it just doesn't make sense..."

The other confidants were also puzzled.
