Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

The multitude of Qingyun disciples felt a bad premonition swelling in their hearts after hearing Liu Hong's words.

As their footsteps quickened, their speed in passing through the formation became extremely fast.

Once they appeared halfway up the mountain.

Liu Hong's expression turned grim.

Two disciples dressed in Qingyun sect attire were cut down at the formation's entrance.

"Who on earth did this!"

"What about the others?"

"Could it be that people from Xuantian Sect have come?"

...

Seeing the deaths of the guarding junior brothers, the returning disciples were overcome with grief.

Their divine sense couldn't cover too far a distance, so they could only shift their gaze to Liu Hong and Xia Liu.

Since the incident at King's Canyon, Xia Liu had been regarded among the people as a cultivator at the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation.

Even though he didn't usually possess the true cultivation of the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation.

But when he erupted, even someone at the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation couldn't withstand more than a few moves.

This was enough to illustrate Xia Liu's capability.

"Most people are fine, rest assured."

Knowing the disciples were worried about the situation within Qingyun, Liu Hong relaxed a bit, using his divine sense to scan the nearby region.

Fortunately, there were no major casualties; otherwise, it would have been regrettable.

"Who exactly did this?"

Elder Gao's face was entirely darkened with lines.

He had experienced inhuman events at King's Canyon, yet it was forgivable.

But for someone to cause trouble within the Qingyun sect.

If he found out who it was, he would certainly flay them harshly.

"I don't know who did it, but surely, like Yun Hai, someone or something has clouded their vision."

Liu Hong glanced at Yun Hai, who was carried on Qingniao's back, his expression becoming extremely complicated.

"Traitor Yun Hai!"

Elder Gao had tolerated Yun Hai for a long time on this journey.

If it weren't for Liu Hong's words, he would have killed Yun Hai back in King's Canyon.

This kind of trash doesn't deserve to exist on this earth.

"Let's not talk about that now; let's understand the situation within the sect first."

"Sect Master Lu is just below in the woodland; let's hurry and take a look."

Xia Liu reminded them.

"Alright!"

Liu Hong and Xia Liu immediately used their movement techniques, swiftly heading into the woods.

At that moment, Lu Mu was crouching on the ground, bandaging the wound of a severely injured disciple.

Fortunately, this disciple didn't suffer a fatal wound; otherwise, no one would be able to save him.

Once Xia Liu arrived, before anyone could react, he struck the injured disciple with his palm, infusing their body with a steady flow of Wooden Spirit Energy.

"Junior Brother, what happened?"

Liu Hong's presence made everyone react.

Otherwise, they would have thought Xia Liu was the enemy.

"Ah, it's a long story..."

Lu Mu's face was pale, looking at Liu Hong helplessly, filled with guilt and self-blame.

"You've taken severe internal injuries, who did this?"

Liu Hong immediately sensed something was amiss; to injure Lu Mu, who was at the fourteenth level of Qi Cultivation, the troublemaker in Qingyun had to have at least the cultivation of the peak of the fourteenth level of Qi Cultivation or higher.

"Father! Are you alright?"

Lu Fang's eyes widened in panic; his father was seriously injured!

"In the aura that injured Sect Master Lu, there were traces identical to the Qingyun Cultivation Technique."

After transmitting spiritual energy to the disciple, Xia Liu solemnly announced.

"Sure enough, who is the traitor?"

Liu Hong's eyes narrowed, a fierce gleam flashing through them.

"Elder Xu."

Lu Mu felt somewhat helpless.

He had known Elder Xu for nearly fifty years.

Someone he trusted utterly turned out to be the one who betrayed him and hurt him the most.

"Elder Xu!"

"Dammit! So besides Yun Hai, Elder Xu was also a spy!"

"These years Elder Xu has been keeping a low profile, waiting for this day!"

...

The elite disciples who returned from King's Canyon clenched their fists tightly.

A traitor appearing in the sect was absolutely hateful.

Sadly, they lacked the ability to slay the traitor.

"Let's speak in Qingyun Hall."

Seeing there were many disciples around, Lu reminded them.

"Alright, Qingniao, Qingxiao, handle the aftermath, as for Yun Hai, don't let him die."

"Yes!"

After the instructions, the core figures in the Qingyun sect all rushed to Qingyun Hall.

Upon arriving at the hall, Xia Liu immediately began to heal Lu Mu.

Knowing Xia Liu possessed the Wooden Spirit Energy Origin, Lu Mu wouldn't refuse.

He wanted to experience the healing effects of the Wooden Spirit Energy Origin.

The effect nearly made him exclaim aloud.

It was simply terrifying.

His internal injuries, initially expected to recover in about a month.

Thanks to Xia Liu's healing, will now take at most three days to heal.

It must be said, the Wooden Spirit Energy Origin is an unimaginably terrifying existence.

"Alright, Junior Brother, tell us what exactly happened?"

Liu Hong was eager to know what had transpired.

When Elder Xu became a spy was unclear to Liu Hong.

Similarly, he didn't know which sect Elder Xu was a spy for.

If Elder Xu was indeed a spy for the Xuantian Sect, then their end is nigh!

Lu Mu recounted everything from start to finish.

It took a long time for everyone to digest it all.

As for whether Elder Xu really was a spy for the Xuantian Sect, that remains unknown.

Lu Mu was severely injured because Elder Xu caught him off guard, attacking him from behind.

Had Lu Mu fallen, Elder Xu would have caught the entire Qingyun sect in his grasp.

Unfortunately, Lu Mu, at the fourteenth level of Qi Cultivation, was beyond Elder Xu's expectations.

A potent strike at the thirteenth level of Qi Cultivation did not kill Lu Mu, only severely injured him.

Consequently, after being unable to overpower Lu Mu, Elder Xu fled.

Along the way, he continued to murder Qingyun disciples.

At least ten disciples perished by his hand.

Due to his severe injuries, Lu Mu was unable to pursue him at any appreciable speed.

Ultimately, he could only watch as Elder Xu disappeared into the formation.

"Did Elder Xu take the Qingyun Secret Order with him when he left?"

Xia Liu immediately caught the crux of Lu Mu's words.

If Elder Xu left with the secret order, wouldn't it be easy for him to return with his forces to infiltrate Qingyun Sect?

"That's not a concern; the Qingyun Formation can be adjusted so the order is ineffective."

Liu Hong quickly put Xia Liu's worries to rest.

If Qingyun Sect were that easy to destroy, it wouldn't have endured from the end of the Cultivator Era to the present.

"That's reassuring."

Xia Liu smiled and nodded, considering that if Liu Hong were in the sect, such incidents would likely not occur.

"What remains unclear is, to which Immortal Sect does Elder Xu belong?"

Lu Mu usually chatted frequently with Elder Xu.

Their relationship seemed quite harmonious.

Yet when such events unfolded, he had no idea to which force Elder Xu was aligned.

"At present, Xuantian Sect possibly holds the greatest suspicion."

"Indeed! I think so too; our attack in the Valley of the Dead was orchestrated by Ye Tiande; he colluded with spies within the sect; it must be him!"

Hearing what Elder Gao said, Lu Mu was taken aback: "You were attacked in King's Canyon? Does Ye Tiande possess Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation?"
