Chapter 2317: Chapter 2317: Divine Horn Clan Spies

Zhou Yu took a deep breath and said:

"I do need this Sun Essence Gold."

Hearing this, Elder Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"And about the spiritual storm?"

Zhou Yu smiled and said:

"Let’s do this, find a suitable place, and I’ll help you lead it once more."

"Good, that’s great."

"Then let’s go now."

Elder Xu said excitedly.

Afterward, Elder Xu led Zhou Yu to a secluded place of the Heaven Puppet Clan.

Zhou Yu, following the previous method, found another small piece of Qilin Essence and triggered it.

As expected, a spiritual storm appeared again.

Elder Xu excitedly collected it.

Thus, the transaction between the two was smoothly completed.

After sending off Elder Xu and Xu Tao.

Zhou Yu immediately returned to his residence and then took out a large pile of things from his Storage Ring to begin seclusion.

Meanwhile, a major event occurred in Black Cloud City while Zhou Yu was in seclusion.

As the great war approached, many spies from the Divine Horn Clan appeared in Black Cloud City.

For a while, battles broke out in Black Cloud City from time to time.

These spies, to sabotage the City Defense Array of Black Cloud City, used all sorts of methods, one after another.

To prevent these spies from succeeding, the Black Cloud Twenty-Eight Clans Alliance Headquarters sent many high-rank cultivators to guard key locations in the city.

Alliance Headquarters.

At this moment, some top leaders in the alliance were holding a meeting here.

Including Wan Sheng of the Heaven Puppet Clan and the Sixth Elder Duan Tian of the Qingxuan Clan, among others.

Sitting in the main seats were two people.

The status of these two people was evidently higher than everyone else present.

One of these two was the Mahayana Realm expert Elder Fei, who appeared at the auction that day.

Beside Elder Fei sat an elderly woman.

At this moment, both Elder Fei and the elderly woman had extremely serious expressions.

Elder Fei said coldly:

"Everyone, how is the investigation of the Divine Horn Clan’s spies going?"

Faced with Elder Fei’s inquiry, everyone was silent.

Seeing this, Wan Sheng had no choice but to speak:

"Elder Fei, according to the current situation, most of the spies have already been eliminated."

"The remaining ones are not worrisome, but..."

At this point, Wan Sheng paused, then continued:

"According to the information received by our Heaven Puppet Clan, a spy who is extremely adept at disguise was sent to our Black Cloud City by the Divine Horn Clan, and there is still no information about this person."

"The destructive power of this person could be much greater than all the others combined."

"Right now, we must find a way to quickly identify this person."

Hearing this, Elder Fei looked coldly at a middle-aged man beside him.

"Elder Bai, your Water Spirit Clan is best at seeing through disguises. This time, the alliance gave your Water Spirit Clan ample resources to catch the spy. Why is there no result yet?"

Being named by Elder Fei, Elder Bai looked a bit uncomfortable.

However, he still stood up and said:

"Elder Fei, as for the spy Daoist Wan mentioned, we have exhausted all our efforts, but there is not a trace."

"Our Water Spirit Clan seriously suspects that either this person does not exist, or this person has already escaped."

"Hmph, do you have any evidence?"

"This matter concerns the survival of Black Cloud City. It cannot be ambiguous like this."

Wan Sheng criticized bluntly.

Elder Bai said with a dark expression:

"Daoist Wan, you keep saying that the person is still in Black Cloud City. Then I must ask, how are you so sure?"

Wan Sheng angrily said:

"In this matter, it’s better to be safe than sorry. If I had a way to confirm, would I still need the Water Spirit Clan?"

"Since you have no way to confirm, why..."

Elder Bai wanted to argue, but was directly interrupted by Elder Fei.

"Elder Wan is right, Black Cloud City can afford no mistakes now."

"Since half a month ago, I have personally deployed methods to monitor all major exits of Black Cloud City."

"No suspicious person has escaped, so if this person really exists, they must still be in the city."

Hearing this, Elder Bai took a deep breath and said:

"Elder Fei, I’m not questioning your judgment. I just think, is it necessary to expend so much effort for such a Void Refinement Realm spy?"

"What trouble can a mere Void Refinement Realm cause?"

"Right now, we have already used a lot of reserve resources for this person. These resources were originally meant for defending the city. If we continue to consume them like this, it will inevitably affect city defense in the future, and then the problem will become even more serious..."

After Elder Bai finished speaking, many other elders nodded in agreement.

Seeing that the majority agreed with Elder Bai, Elder Fei showed hesitation on his face.

Just then, a graceful woman beside Wan Sheng suddenly spoke:

"Everyone, stop arguing."

"I believe both Elder Wan and Elder Bai have their points."

"We cannot relax, nor can we completely ignore it. I do have a plan, how about you all listen to it?"

Hearing this, Elder Fei immediately smiled and said:

"Alright, then please, Elder Cai of the Wood Silver Clan, share your thoughts."

Cai opened her mouth and said:

"According to Elder Wan, this person must be someone with extremely high intelligence, so such a person cannot be measured by realm."

"In fact, a Void Refinement Realm’s strength, if well prepared, is enough to sabotage the foundations of most formations in the city."

"Therefore, we must not be careless."

"I suggest that we deliberately spread the message that the spy in the city has been cleared, and then secretly deploy elder-level experts to monitor all the major exits."

"If that person is lulled into complacency, they might reveal themselves."

Hearing this, Elder Bai frowned.

"Elder Cai, your idea is not bad."

"But what if this person never reveals themselves and waits until the great war begins to start causing havoc?"

Elder Cai smiled lightly.

"Don’t worry, what I just said is only the first layer."

"There is also a second layer."

"However, this second layer requires strict confidentiality. Please forgive me for only being able to tell Elder Fei..."

After speaking, Elder Cai began to use Divine Thought Communication to communicate with Elder Fei.

Seeing the two start Divine Thought Communication, everyone else looked puzzled, not knowing what Elder Cai was up to.

After a long while, Elder Fei’s face revealed a smile.

"Good, this plan is not bad."

"Many thanks to Elder Cai."

After speaking, Elder Fei looked at the elderly woman beside him and said:

"Elder Sha, what do you think of Elder Cai’s suggestion just now?"

The elderly woman said indifferently:

"This matter, you all can manage as you see fit. If any strong enemy appears, I will take action myself. Other matters, I’m not interested in."

Hearing this, Elder Fei gave a slight smile to the elderly woman.

Regarding this elderly woman, Elder Fei had great respect.

In terms of seniority, this elderly woman had entered the Mahayana Realm long before him.

Subsequently, Elder Fei looked at Elder Cai and said.

"In that case, I will arrange the following matters."

Elder Cai smiled slightly and sat back down.

Looking at everyone, Elder Fei said:

"Regarding the spy issue, I will communicate with you privately."

"Next, let’s discuss the matter of the World Order..."
