Chapter 756 A mistake
"The sect was wiped out? Who did it? When?"

Yunxi immediately launched into a three-question barrage.

Han Yang was also bewildered. He took out a communication jade slip and quickly sent out several messages. Then he took out another jade slip, considered it for a moment, and sent another message before looking up at Yun Xi and saying:
"The news just came back, and I'm verifying it. Please wait a moment."

Yunxi stroked the teacup in her hand and said:

"Do you think the people who made a deal with the Ninja Clan wiped out their entire clan just to prevent the news from leaking out?"

"What mission could possibly be worth them wiping out an entire sect for?"

Han Yang's voice trailed off towards the end, as if he had realized something. His affectionate eyes widened, and he uttered only three words:
"Moon Gate!"

Yunxi nodded in agreement:

"It seems that most of the people who made deals with the Ninja Clan are heretical cultivators. Only they have the resources to do such a large-scale operation, and they also have their reasons for doing so. What do you think?"

Han Yang took a deep breath and said:
"Let's wait a little longer, we should receive a reply soon."

After speaking, he kept fanning himself with his folding fan, seemingly sorting through the information he had received.

Yunxi remained silent, sipping her flower tea and feigning a thoughtful expression.

Lili and Diandian poked their heads out of the spirit beast pouch, never expecting such a dramatic turn of events, that the Ninja Sect had been wiped out just like that.

Lili's dark grape-like eyes darted around before she transmitted her voice:

"Your Excellency, since the Ninja Sect has been destroyed, we can use Han Yang to pin the blame for its destruction on the evil cultivators, and at the same time draw the attention of the City Lord of Ji Yun City and the Moon Gate cultivators to the evil cultivators."

This way, no one would suspect that half of the Moon Gate had fallen into the hands of the Venerable One. As long as the identity of the person who destroyed the Ninja Sect remains unknown, the Venerable One can remain uninvolved, facilitating future actions.

Yunxi swallowed the fragrant spiritual tea in her mouth, calmly refilled her cup, and then replied telepathically:
"I destroyed the Ninja Clan."

Upon hearing this, Lili's bright black eyes widened, and she scratched her ear before transmitting her voice:
"Your Majesty, what did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly. Could you please repeat it?"

"The one who destroyed the Ninja Clan was the original self."

Yunxi replied, emphasizing each word.

"Lili has been with His Excellency the whole time. When did you go there?"

Li Li was certain that he had never been separated from the Venerable since entering the Demon Realm, and the Venerable had never hidden any of his actions from him and Diandian. There was no reason why he would not know about such a large-scale operation as the destruction of the sect.

Yunxi smiled and curled her lips into a smile, saying:
"You forgot, the space connected by the moon gate that we discovered in the underground cave of the Jinghong Mountains was also discovered by you."

Li Li was stunned for a moment, but then she immediately realized what was happening:

"The Ninja Clan cultivator who stole the items used the Moon Gate to return to the Ninja Clan's lair in order to evade the City Lord's Mansion's pursuit. He even lured Ji Feng and the others into his own lair, all to clean up the mess!"

“You’re right. There’s no place more suitable for silencing someone than your own sect. The fact that Han Yang just gave me the location of the Ninja Sect’s lair proves that point.”

"I was wondering why it would take a cultivator at the Fusion stage of the Ninja Sect to kill a few late-stage Nascent Soul guards. Turns out, that person was the current sect leader of the Ninja Sect, and also the most powerful cultivator in the sect." After receiving confirmation, Li Li's eyes widened even more. He felt that his master's luck was unparalleled. He managed to achieve something unexpected and even took the opportunity to smear the evil cultivator. It was truly gratifying.

While Yunxi and Lili were communicating telepathically, the jade pendant at Hanyang's waist kept vibrating. He had received replies to all the messages he had sent out, and he was checking them one by one.

Yunxi maintained her "I don't know either" attitude, sipping her flower tea and trying two not-too-sweet pastries. She felt that the food preparation skills here were comparable to those at Nuannuan Pavilion, each with its own unique characteristics.

Just as Yunxi was about to ask the waiter to prepare another serving of snacks, Hanyang looked up and said:
"The news of the Ninja Sect's destruction is true, but there are currently no clues as to who was responsible. The incident occurred during the two days when you were tracking Ninja Sect cultivators into the Jinghong Mountain Range."

I deduce that the Ninja Sect cultivators who were supposed to be there to meet them had already taken the Moon Gate that had been stolen from Ji Yun City. The wounded Ninja Sect cultivators stayed behind to hold off the city guards, and the cultivators who were there to meet them were silenced when they returned to the sect to complete the remaining transactions. To prevent the news from leaking out, this person decided to go all the way and completely wipe out the Ninja Sect.

Yunxi then said:

"If that's the case, then it's even more likely that the evil cultivators made the move. After all, the Moon Gate's power is so incredible, and after they had the Ninja Sect steal it back, they certainly wouldn't want any third party to know, especially since Ji Yuncheng is pursuing them so closely."

Han Yang held the communication jade slip in his hand and said:
“Indeed, this seems to be the way evil cultivators operate, but we don’t have any evidence right now, so I can’t easily release this information.”

Yun Xi's eyes turned and said:

"Then you can trade information that has already been confirmed, such as the location of the Ninja Clan's stronghold and the fact that they were wiped out. As for their last transaction before they were wiped out, you can also reveal a bit about it. Those who are interested in investigating will naturally find some clues."

“Yes, you’re right. Moreover, news came from Ji Yuncheng that one of the city guards returned to the city lord’s mansion alive. He should know something.”

Yunxi casually said:

"Then let's go and investigate; maybe we'll find some clues."

"If that's the case, Ji Yuncheng's treasure has probably already fallen into the hands of evil cultivators. I wonder what the Moon Gate's reaction will be when they find out."

Han Yang put away the communication jade slip and muttered to himself.

"Didn't you already encounter the cultivators from the Moon Gate? They even inquired about the location of the Ninja Sect's lair, most likely for Ji Yun City's treasure. Tomorrow, sell the news of the Ninja Sect's destruction along with the news, and then observe their reaction to get a general idea of ​​their purpose."

Yunxi suggested with a smile.

"Okay, we'll do it your way. Are you coming with me tomorrow?"

"Of course, and I also need to get a new face."

Yunxi decided to replace the face that resembled Yutang Ruofeng in three parts. Ji Feng had seen this face before. Although she was quite sure that Ji Feng was unconscious when she saved him, it would be troublesome if he had something like a recording jade on him. Moreover, the only survivor she let go had also seen this face. Just to be on the safe side, it would be better to replace it.

She recalled the surprised expression on the face of the only Ninja Sect cultivator who had been released. It turned out that she had been in the Ninja Sect's stronghold at the time and had even killed their sect leader. Her request for him to deliver the message was now meaningless, which was why he had escaped so quickly. She guessed that he would hide even deeper after the news of the Ninja Sect's destruction spread.

After parting ways with Yunxi, Hanyang returned to the inn and began collecting information sent back from various parties to see if he could find any useful clues.

Yunxi turned and went to the robe shop in Wan'ai City. This time, she changed into a new robe with a slightly bright pink and blue gradient. She also changed her face to be as beautiful as a peach blossom. The next day, she went with Hanyang to see the two fellow disciples of the Moon Gate.
