The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 101 The Flower Fairy Knows Too Much
Under Fang Yu’s direction, several elders of the Shenxiao Sect, holding the Thunderclap Sword, walked past everyone as if they were conducting an inspection, but they did not detect anything unusual.
The inquiries of the elders were meticulous, and those present were relatively cooperative.
That’s because those who weren’t cooperative got zapped.
After nearly an hour, the people inside Purple Cloud Cave had all been scanned by the Thunderclap Sword.
With no results to show, Fang Yu was at a loss.
She, however, had been somewhat prepared for this outcome; knowing that the thief had plotted to steal the sword, it was clear that they had come prepared.
Fang Yu, after hearing about Lin Yun’s message, did make some preparations. On her person, she also carried an item of utmost Yin and softness, but it seemed that the other party had an even more powerful treasure.
Since sealing Purple Cloud Mountain had not resulted in the retrieval of the missing item, perhaps the thief had long since fled far away.
Continuing the blockade was pointless, so, after discussing with several elders, Fang Yu decided to dissolve the formation.
"We apologize for any offense caused today. Please excuse our actions. We will now dissolve the formation, but as it is getting late, we invite all honored guests to stay on the mountain for the night. Those who must leave may do so at their convenience."
Speaking on behalf of the others, Fang Yu exchanged pleasantries before she allowed the people inside Purple Cloud Cave to exit in an orderly fashion.
Flower Fairy noticed that Lin Yun had not returned and had no choice but to leave Purple Cloud Cave with the crowd.
Upon exiting Purple Cloud Cave, one could see upon the firmament, symbols emerging one after another, and chains soaring up from the ground, rocketing into the sky, converging at a single point, as if forming a large bowl that trapped everyone inside.
As the prohibition was lifted, those chains also disintegrated, turning into streaks of flowing light, dissipating into the night sky.
Although those present were cultivators, not many had the chance to witness such a spectacle, prompting some to express their awe.
Amid the crowd, Flower Fairy cast a stern and serious gaze toward Feng Wu.
Feng Wu instantly felt like she was being watched by a tiger. Pretending to look around casually, she caught a glimpse of the person staring at her through the corner of her eye.
The Saintess Flower Fairy of Guanghan Palace?
Why is she looking at me?
Could she have discovered something?
Feng Wu couldn’t help but get anxious, as there had been no prior interaction between them, and there was no reason for Flower Fairy to scrutinize her so intently, and it was clear it was an inspection.
Cultivators never act without purpose.
For a moment, Feng Wu’s mind was in chaos.
She had to figure out what was going on—the matters of her organization must not be exposed.
"Lady Feng Wu, we have arranged accommodations for you, please follow me," a female disciple of the Shenxiao Sect approached Feng Wu to say, to which Feng Wu nodded, responding, "Thank you."
Actually, she had planned to leave Purple Cloud Cave and immediately descend the mountain on the pretext of business urgencies.
But now, being watched, would leaving insistently appear even more suspicious?
Staying on the mountain for one night might just dispel Flower Fairy’s doubts.
Moreover, she could find that person and ask what exactly happened, why, when Shenxiao Sect’s item went missing, she ended up with nothing—what had gone wrong?
Flower Fairy watched Feng Wu walk away. Observing her swaying grace, as if a gentle breeze caressed willows, exuding allure, Flower Fairy couldn’t help but inwardly curse her as a vixen.
Hmph, so what if you have a good figure? In thirty years, you’ll be worn and old, while I will still be a beautiful young lady.
It’s just dancing, right?
I dance much more beautifully than you!
Of course, in her heart, Flower Fairy was proud. The spells and divine skills of Guanghan Palace emphasized an air of ethereal charm.
The Wangshu Sword Dance, when performed, is exquisitely graceful yet conceals a deadly intent.
The Moonlit Wanderer Dance, with its agile movements, is ethereal and otherworldly.
If it really came down to dancing, Flower Fairy felt that she would definitely not lose to a mere mortal dancer.
Hmph, what’s so good about that!
If Feng Wu knew that Flower Fairy was watching her so intently out of jealousy, she would probably cough up blood violently.
Once she moved into the room arranged by the Shenxiao Sect, she instructed her maidservant, "Qiuyue, hang a stalk of Xiang Lan’ai by the window."
Maidservant Qiuyue nodded in response but was inwardly startled.
Xiang Lan’ai signified a request for a meeting. Could it be that there was a change of plans for this evening’s events?
Her clearance level wasn’t high, and she didn’t know much, so she could only follow orders.
Not long after hanging the Xiang Lan’ai, a bee flew over.
In the darkness, the small bee attracted little attention; it flew in through the crack in the window.
"Wait outside."
Feng Wu instructed, and Qiuyue obediently opened the room door and sat down on the steps.
It was only after this that Feng Wu set up a Formation that blocked the probing of Divine Sense, then greeted with a bow, "I’ve seen Senior Hu Feng."
"What matter do you have calling me at this time! According to the plan, you were supposed to take the item and leave. Why are you still lingering on this mountain!"
The bee uttered a voice hard to distinguish between male and female, seemingly dissatisfied. Feng Wu quickly said, "Senior Hu Feng, something unexpected happened. My Mysterious Female Pearl did not receive that wisp of Creation Thunder."
"You say what?"
Hu Feng was clearly shocked; this was not according to plan!
"Everything I’ve said is true. Look."
As she spoke, Feng Wu took out a pearl with nothing inside it.
"The Mysterious Female Pearl is a top-tier Immortal Artifact, a rarity for its ultimate Yin and softness. What could possibly be wrong?"
Hu Feng was perplexed, but Feng Wu hinted, "Could all this merely be a trap set by the Shenxiao Sect? They might have noticed something."
"Impossible. The Separation Spell was arranged by me personally, and I’ve also checked the Thunderclap Sword. Both the Sword Spirit and Creation Thunder are indeed gone."
A thought struck Feng Wu; she had never seen Hu Feng before, and now it seemed that Hu Feng must be one of the seven Elders.
"What are you thinking about?"
Hu Feng noticed she was pondering something, to which Feng Wu hastily said, "I was thinking about Flower Fairy. My suspicion that this might be a Shenxiao Sect’s trap comes from Flower Fairy staring at me earlier. We’ve never met before, so she must have sensed something."
Hu Feng fell silent, for it made sense.
If discussing ultimate Yin and softness, Guanghan Palace just so happens to have such a treasure, one that the Mysterious Female Pearl cannot compare to.
Moreover, Fang Yu and Jiang Chenyu are very good friends. If something was indeed detected, seeking help from Jiang Chenyu in secret was not impossible.
"So, what do you think we should do about this matter?"
"I believe we should act swiftly to eliminate Flower Fairy. With Jiang Chenyu gone, that treasure is very likely on Flower Fairy’s person. It seems they believe that within the Shenxiao Sect’s grounds, nobody would dare lay a hand on Flower Fairy. We must strike unexpectedly and murder to seize the treasure!"
After pondering for a moment, Hu Feng said, "Half an hour later, Elders of Shenxiao Sect above the Celestial Knowing Realm will attend a meeting. I will hold them off, but you only have the time it takes one stick of incense to burn."
Feng Wu: "..."
Are you sure you want me to assassinate her alone?
She’s a fierce woman who dares to defy the Demon Lord with a Divine Artifact in hand, and you’re just giving me the time it takes one stick of incense to burn. Is this so she can take me down within the duration of one incense stick?
