Chapter 1105: 682 Evil God Chapter 1105: 682 Evil God After returning to the Sect, Mo Hua immediately sent a message to Gu Changhuai:
âUncle Gu, you need to keep an eye on âCrossing River Dragonâ, someone is going to sabotage.â
Gu Changhuai replied quickly, âHow do you know?â
Mo Hua: âI heard about itâŠâ
Gu Changhuai: âHeard from whom?â
Mo Hua hesitated for a moment and asked, âIf I tell you, will you believe me?â
There was also a pause on Gu Changhuaiâs side, âGo ahead.â
âIt was a disciple from the Sever Gold Sect who said it, others call him âMr. Jinâ,â said Mo Hua.
âMr. Jin?â
âYes.â
Mo Hua continued, âHe arranged for Crossing River Dragon to first enter the Taoist Prison, then âfaked his deathâ there, afterwards changed his appearance, and then came back to mix inâŠâ
Gu Changhuai went silent, his gaze also somewhat dreadful.
Such a switch of identity, violating the law, also offended a great taboo of the Taoist Court.
Some small local Taoist Courts, being corrupt and bold, might be possible, but here at the border of Qianxue State, a distinguished Fifth-grade Taoist CourtâŠ
Gu Changhuai did not quite believe it.
But Mo Hua, although behaving unpredictably and mysteriously, would not likely spout nonsense regarding such a matter.
Mo Hua said, âSo I sent Crossing River Dragon into the Taoist Prison, keep an eye on it and see if you can root out the mole in the Court.â
Gu Changhuai was somewhat surprised, after a long moment, he replied, âOkayâŠâ
Mo Hua then asked, âSever Gold Sect⊠can the Taoist Court investigate it?â
Gu Changhuai said, âNo. Matters internal to a Great Sect, our Taoist Court cannot intervene, unless there are clear proofs showing that the Sect Disciple has violated the Taoist Law and committed a grave crime, otherwise we cannot investigate, let alone arrest.â
Mo Hua felt a bit regretful.
âDid you find out something again?â Gu Changhuai asked.
Mo Hua thought for a while, and did not withhold,
âI suspect, the black-clothed traffickers in Qian State are these Sect Disciples, and this âMr. Jinâ from Sever Gold Sect, is very likely to be one of themâŠâ
Gu Changhuai again fell silent for a moment, slowly saying:
âLeave this matter aside for now.â
Mo Hua was stunned, feeling something was off, âUncle Gu, you⊠knew already?â
Gu Changhuai didnât speak.
Indeed!
His silence was naturally a confirmation.
Mo Hua had also felt it strange before, how could the Taoist Court be completely uninformed if such a matter with black-clothed traffickers was deeply entrenched.
Mo Hua hurriedly asked, âUncle Gu, how much do you know?â
No reply came from the other side.
Mo Hua went on a series: âUncle Gu,â âUncle Gu, are you there?,â âUncle Gu, please speakâ⊠sent them over.
Gu Changhuai couldnât take it anymore, he finally sighed, slowly saying:
âYou know about the incident where Yu Er was kidnapped.â
âYes.â Mo Hua nodded.
How could he not know about that.
Gu Changhuai said: âThat day you⊠by chance, took Yu Er away, and afterwards a few black-clothed men came to the restaurant.â
âThey were âpicking up the goods.'â
âThe Taoist Court attacked them, the leader escaped, the remaining black-clothed men were left behind, but without exception, all died. Demonic Qi destroyed their flesh bodies, tainted their meridians and Spiritual Roots, leaving only a black, foul-smelling lump of flesh and bloodâŠâ
âThis is not an isolated case.â
âLong before, there were disappearances of noble familyâs sons with Superior-Grade Spirit Roots, the Taoist Court investigated, catching these traffickers, but all these traffickers were destroyed by Demonic Qi to erase the tracesâŠâ
âThatâs why we speculateâŠâ
Gu Changhuai gritted his teeth, ââŠthat many sons of noble families have entered the Demon Sect, became demonic beasts but covered in human skin, hiding their auraâŠâ
Mo Huaâs eyebrows knitted tightly, âCanât they be investigated?â
Gu Changhuai sighed, âUninvestigable, and unattainable to investigateâŠâ
âSect forces are strong and mostly protective, connected to various enormous families in the backgroundâŠâ
âA Fifth-grade Taoist Court in Qianxue State doesnât have the capacity to intervene into these significant powers to investigate such sensitive matterâŠâ
âAfter all, a disciple entering demonhood, whether for the family or the Sect, is an enormous scandal, under severe circumstances, it could force the Dao Court Tianquan Pavilion to demote themâŠâ
âSo thatâs itâŠâ Mo Hua nodded.
âBut thatâs not rightâŠâ Mo Hua thought for a moment, becoming puzzled again, âAll major Sects in Qian State strictly forbid disciples from practicing Demon Monster skills, forbid carrying any Demon Monster Cultivation Technique, Dao Skill, or Evil Artifact up the mountainâŠâ
âAlso, at the gateway of Sects, they have laid down measures to monitor for Monster Qi and Demonic Qi.â
âIf these disciples have entered demonhood, even if covered in human skin, they would be detected and couldnât even enter the Sect gates, how could they still reside safely within the Sect?â
âThis is the most bizarre partâŠâ Gu Changhuaiâs gaze was icy, mixed with perplexity:
âNo one knows, what means they have used to conceal their identities, clearly entered demonhood, committed acts worse than livestock, yet still move freely in and out of the Sects, considering themselves as the Heavenly Pride of noble familiesâŠâ
Suddenly Mo Hua thought of something, his gaze intensifying, and he asked seriously:
âUncle Gu, do you know about the Evil God?â
Gu Changhuai looked evidently startled, âWhy bring this up suddenly?â
âUncle Gu, do you know what the Evil God is?â
After a moment of contemplation, Gu Changhuai shook his head, âThe Heavenly Demon Evil God is said to be a great disaster from ancient legends, specifically what it is, seems no one knows.â
âThereâs also scant mention in the Tao Cultivation Canons.â
âWhy all of a suddenâŠâ
Gu Changhuai paused, âYou donât think that these matters are related to the Evil God, do youâŠâ
Mo Hua: âHmmâŠâ
Gu Changhuai took a deep breath, reluctantly said:
âYou havenât been reading some bizarre tales of Tao Cultivation or assorted myths of immortals and gods, have youâŠâ
Quite imaginativeâŠ
Mo Hua was startled, âReallyâŠâ
Gu Changhuai shook his head, âThis is Qian State, under Chengqian Heavenâs Dao, where noble families are extensive, Great Sects stand numerous, and Cultivators of great power are countless; how could the Evil God establish a foothold, how could he spread his teachings?â
