Chapter 763 Shifting the Blame 2
"Then what do we do? Just wait like this?"

"To find the two doors, we still need to keep an eye on the Moon Gate and the City Lord's Mansion in Ji Yun City. There must be something we've overlooked."

"Yes!"

The five people who had gathered together then turned and dispersed, disappearing in five different directions.

On the other side, after returning to Jiyun City, Ji Yaya went to see her father as soon as possible and gave a general account of her meeting with the Moon Gate disciples and their joint investigation of the Ninja Sect's lair, and also mentioned Murong Yunyu.

After hearing about his daughter's outing, Ji Chenfeng ordered his men to summon Ji Feng, and then said to his daughter:
"Ya Ya, I just received news that the Moon Gate's most treasured artifact has been stolen. It was an elder of the Moon Gate who stole it from the gate. This Elder Lian Yue even managed to escape from the Moon Gate."

Ji Yaya was extremely surprised:

"What? How could this happen? That's the second largest sect in the Demon Realm! They just stood by and watched their treasure be stolen?"

Ji Chenfeng sighed and said:

"It is said that this elder is an evil cultivator who has been infiltrating the sect for a long time without being exposed. She almost became the sect leader of the Moon Sect, but she refused because she was not decisive enough."

This time, the Moon Gate received news that it was going to clean up the infiltrated evil cultivators. Before the operation, the sect leader specifically ordered her to guard the sect's treasure. Unexpectedly, this gave the other side the best opportunity to make a move. That night, the Moon Gate's operation restrained the high-level cultivators in the sect, which allowed Lian Yue to succeed smoothly.

The Moon Gate has issued a reward for Lian Yue's capture, and even the Heavenly Demon Palace has received the news and promised to cooperate.

Ji Yaya frowned after hearing this and said:
“Father, the loss of both the City Lord’s Mansion’s secret treasure and the Moon Gate’s treasure seems to be related to evil cultivators. They may be the real masterminds behind it all.”

"Your assumption is the same as your father's."

Ji Chenfeng had foreseen this day would come when he took over the Gate of Space.

“Father, if you want to know the whole plan of the evil cultivators, you can send a message to ask the leader of the Moon Gate. That day, Venerable Zuoqiu Liang obtained a sealed evil cultivator’s nascent soul from that Murong Yunyu.”

Ji Chenfeng nodded to indicate that he had his own plans, and at this moment Ji Feng also stepped into the council hall.

"Ji Feng greets the City Lord and Miss."

Ji Feng's injuries had not fully healed. Because he did not know the outcome of the matter, he did not go into seclusion to heal. After receiving the summons, he rushed over immediately. When he saw Ji Yaya, who had gone out, he knew that Ji Yaya might have brought back clues about the secret treasure.

"Ji Feng, you said that on the day you captured the thieves from the Ninja Sect, you encountered Murong Yunyu from the Heavenly Demon Palace?"

After thinking carefully for a moment, Ji Feng said:

"Yes, I even had to bite the bullet and stop Senior Zhuge to ask him a few questions, because when we caught the thief that day, the Ninja Sect cultivator was hiding in your shadow."

Ji Yaya reacted quickly, immediately using her magic to sketch the image of Murong Yunyu that she had seen before:
"Ji Feng, was that her you saw that day?"

After looking at it, Ji Feng shook his head and said:
"No, the Zhuge Liang I met was someone else."

After speaking, she sketched the face of the person she had met that day, which was the same face Yunxi had used before.

Looking at the two completely different faces, Lord Ji sighed in regret:

"We've fallen for the evil cultivator's trick. One of these two must be an evil cultivator in disguise," Ji Yaya said, frowning.

"The person I met with the Moon Gate should be the real Murong Yunyu. After all, she killed two evil cultivators who had reached the Fusion stage. Moreover, the evil cultivators revealed her identity and called her 'Ranxi'. It seems that Murong Yunyu is the identity she used when she traveled in the Demon Realm."

City Lord Ji still remembered the ascension of the entire Weiyu Realm more than sixty years ago, and naturally knew the name "Ranxi," so he nodded and said:

"If you see this person, she is definitely not an evil cultivator in disguise. She has long been on the evil cultivators' kill list. It is only because Ranxi is always cautious, has the backing of Haoran Zhenzun, has strong personal strength, and cultivates quickly that she can make the evil cultivators suffer losses every time. She probably sought out the Ninja Sect because the Ninja Sect accepted the evil cultivators' mission."

Ji Feng's expression changed and he said:

“Lord, if that’s the case, then the Senior Zhuge I encountered that day must have been an evil cultivator in disguise. She may have taken the things stolen by the Ninja Sect right under our noses. If I had noticed something was wrong, I could have detained her. But her identity jade token from the Heavenly Demon Palace is legitimate!”

This is also what puzzles Ji Feng the most.

City Lord Ji said:

"Ji Feng, before you completely lost consciousness, you saw a black dragon and heard its roar. Are you sure?"

Ji Feng immediately nodded and said:
"determine."

Ji Yaya, who was standing to the side, understood why her father had asked that question, and said:

"The weapon that Senior Zhuge used when fighting the evil cultivator was a long black staff with the Big Dipper carved on it. She used lightning spiritual power, and her domain was also supported by lightning spiritual power. There should be no connection between the two."

After hearing this, Ji Chenfeng rejected his guess and then sent a flying sword message to the Heavenly Demon Palace to verify Murong Yunyu's true identity.

Ultimately, based on the information he had gathered, Ji Chenfeng confirmed that the City Lord's Mansion's secret treasure had been taken by evil cultivators after it was lost. The Ninja Sect cultivators that Ji Feng had been tracking were just a smokescreen to attract the attention of everyone in Ji Yun City. The fact that Ji Feng's team was almost wiped out was the best evidence that the other party wanted to silence them.

"The evil cultivators were too ruthless. In order to eliminate all traces, they not only shifted the blame to the east, but also wiped out the entire Ninja Clan. As a result, not only were there no witnesses, but the clues to follow up were also cut off, and in the end, the item still fell into their hands."

Ji Yaya said indignantly.

"Alright, just keep this to yourselves for now, and don't spread it around. I'll think about how to handle this."

Ji Chenfeng rubbed his temples and waved for Ji Yaya and Ji Feng to leave.

Not long after, Ziyue of the Moon Sect received a message from Ji Chenfeng via flying sword, learning that Ji Yuncheng's secret treasure had also fallen into the hands of evil cultivators. She could only sigh and go to see Ancestor Lanyue.

Meanwhile, Yunxi had already informed Hanyang about the function of the two Moon Gates, as well as the news that the evil cultivators were plotting to seize the Moon Gates' treasure and Ji Yuncheng's secret treasure, giving him firsthand information. Of course, all the blame was placed on the evil cultivators, while she remained perfectly hidden.

She didn't care whether the leaders of the Moon Gate would suspect her. Since there was no evidence, she was determined not to let the two gates merge into one, and she wouldn't even let this treasure be revealed to the public.

Han Yang looked at the communication jade slip in his hand, his eyes filled with joy. His prediction had been confirmed, and he was overjoyed.

He quickly sent over the information Yunxi had asked him to gather. It's the key to maintaining a friendship that's always going back and forth. After doing that, he went to sell his firsthand information.

After receiving Han Yang's message, Yun Xi, who had stayed in Yunyin City for two days, narrowed her beautiful eyes.
