Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Better Call Someone!

"Senior Brother, the Xiang family used some of the relationships within their connections to secure a place, I’m not quite sure about the specifics," Wang Zijia answered vaguely yet succinctly, his mind racing.

The somber man stared intently at Wang Zijia, once again falling silent as the air grew quiet.

"Tomorrow, you and two other brothers will enter the Hundred Demon Bewitching Domain together, here are the contact details and basic information," he eventually said, flipping his hand and tossing Wang Zijia a communication charm.

"As for the specific arrangements that you will undertake later, we will discuss them once you return from your mission. Your task in the Hundred Demon Bewitching Domain is to assist your two Senior Brothers in finding the Blood Demon Legacy."

"Blood Demon Legacy?" Wang Zijia thought, a chill ran down his spine.

If the basic knowledge given by Xiang Feifei was correct, the Blood Demon Sect should have been a top magic sect that was later destroyed, and several Magic sects, including the Bone Soul Sect, were established from its remains.

"Yes, according to the information we have gathered, the formation of the Hundred Demon Bewitching Domain is likely due to a mortician who received the body of a direct disciple of the Blood Demon Sect and attempted to forcibly enter the coffin, causing a weird transformation," he explained.

"Ever since this information was received, almost every time the Hundred Demon Bewitching Domain is open, we send people in. If you can obtain any information at all, you will undoubtedly be rewarded handsomely."

The somber man looked at Wang Zijia as he spoke.

"Yes, I understand!" Wang Zijia took the communication charm and carefully put it away.

"It’s late, you’re going to start soon, you go and prepare," the somber man finished passing on the information, ready to see his guest out. He glanced at Lin Family’s girl, "You should go too, there will be arrangements for you later."

"Yes, sir!"

Wang Zijia and the girl bowed together and turned to leave.

The somber man watched the two depart, pausing for a while before murmuring, "A genuine self-made genius? Or did someone in the Sect have a special agenda to bring him here?"

From his expression, he was suspicious of Wang Zijia, but did not doubt his identity.

As he spoke, four bunches of ghostly green lights suddenly emerged from the forest.

When the green lights reached the edge of the pond, they revealed their bodies—two large demonic wolves.

When the demonic wolves got to the man, they not only bowed but obeyed him submissively. The man raised his hand and gently stroked the drooping heads of the wolves.

"Did you remember the scent?" he muttered to himself.

One of the demonic wolves nodded its head, and upon seeing this, he ordered, "When he comes back, keep an eye on him for a while. I want to see what’s really in that gourd. He managed to secure his own place in the Hundred Demon Bewitching Domain."

Having said this, he jumped onto the back of the wolf he was stroking and disappeared into the distance.

What went unnoticed was that where Wang Zijia had stood, an invisible ghostly shadow transformed into wisps of black smoke in the cover of night, clinging to his clothes.

······

After leaving the pond, Wang Zijia quickly called forth his paper kite and took to the skies.

In a moment, he arrived back at the Biyi Court.

Sitting in the cultivation room, he pondered over the day’s events.

From the looks of it, they had only discovered him after finding his name on the mission roster. They realised he had entered the Sect only then.

This alone meant that the initial plan to infiltrate the Sect had not been implemented, and there is a high probability that they did not know about Wang Zijia’s information.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have waited until half a year after he joined the Sect before suddenly showing up.

But did his trick today work?

He was completely clueless about that.

So, what should he do next?

Take a step and see?

Do not interact with them and expose the plot to his parents?

But can he withstand the investigation of the Sect with his name appearing on the spy list under the current circumstances?

Regardless of whether it was him or the original host, they had nothing to do with the magic sect, and were legitimate disciples who come from the Sect. They were of impeccable origin.

But a sixteen-year-old pinnacle child with medium-grade spiritual roots?

Even if his cultivation was not evaluated when he joined the Sect and was only reported, claiming that this cultivation was achieved over the sixteen years and not half a year, isn’t this abnormal?

Wait, why can’t my cultivation be intermediate child-level?

Isn’t it a case of exchanging the value degree for hiding, I can become a bona fide intermediate-level child!!!

And tipping someone off does not necessarily implicate him, causing him to be audited by the Sect’s Law Hall!

Isn’t there a readily available sacrificial wine that can be utilized? Isn’t that a deficiency of sorts!

If handled properly, it can totally not implicate him!

’Damn it, I won’t play with you guys anymore, I am going to tip someone off!’

His mind whirled for a long time, an idea gradually simmering to the forefront, eventually dominating his thinking.

After all, neither he nor the original host had anything to do with the magic sect and were not afraid of the top’s investigation. The only concern was his cultivation, but he could exchange it!

······

As he was contemplating, he felt the Five Ghosts stop moving, he sat cross-legged, his mana began to surge. The image of the skull on his chest materialised, accompanied by gusts of yin wind.

This went on for seven minutes until Wang Zijia’s mana was almost drained. He stopped the casting, his complexion slightly pallid, opened his eyes.

A ghostly shadow phased through the wall and entered Wang Zijia’s body, a strand of information appeared in his mind.

The Five Ghosts were incomplete, and because they were idiots, commanding them was a challenge, as such, the information retrieved was only the basic whereabouts of the man.

But this was enough.

Moving his consciousness, the Red Copper Weight teleported Wang Zijia into Du Kang’s chaotic sea of knowledge, where he formed another mission panel, much like before.

Mission: Spy Capture

Type: Law Enforcement

Danger Level: Low

Description: A peripheral disciple from the Hidden Faction accidentally discovered that a covert child from the devil’s gate has infiltrated the Sect, and has reported and requested to deal with it accordingly.

Details: Since the official conflict between the Sect and the Bone Soul Sect, both sides have been struggling in various fields, now someone from the devil’s gate sneaked in, please conduct a detailed investigation...

Special reminder: Although the target is only a child, please treat it cautiously, and preferably, trace the problem back to the source to completely root it out. This is your admission test to become an official disciple of the Hidden Faction, and your performance will determine your assessment grade. Also, be sure not to implicate the relevant peripheral disciples.

Looking at the mission, Wang Zijia added a few more details, then exited Du Kang’s Chaotic Sea of Knowledge. He didn’t activate the mission immediately.

Let’s wait until he leaves tomorrow. If they were caught tonight, and he suddenly logs online to avoid the heat, he would be confused.

In his previous life, there had indeed been spy dramas with this kind of dog-blooded plot!

······

The next day Wang Zijia woke up early in a rare occurrence, skipping his morning exercises and examined his storage bag for a final check, ensuring he didn’t overlook anything.

He inspected everything from the fasting pellets to various life-saving items.
