The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 77: Four Women, One Stage

Dongfang Hongyue suddenly understood the pain and fear that come from love.

Had it been before, she wouldn’t have cared so much about someone like Hong Rui, the one who had received most of her trust yet betrayed her, Dongfang Hongyue wasn’t that heartbroken.

Her heart had been forged through countless hardships.

And now, she began to fret over Lin Yun.

"It must be because there’s something wrong with Lin Yun, how could I fall for a man!"

Dongfang Hongyue clenched her teeth, denying her feelings for Lin Yun; it was Lin Yun who was strange, not her.

However, no matter how much she denied her feelings, she indeed grew more and more anxious as she thought about it.

When she allowed Lin Yun to go undercover, she hadn’t taken any precautions, like using a Gu or something.

After all, her original intention was just to let Lin Yun go out and cultivate properly; why would she use such methods meant for guarding against others?

Now, she suddenly realized that if things truly went according to this script, Lin Yun could have a bright future. With his talents and root bones, any sect would value him, so why bother associating with the Demon Sect?

The Demon Sect originally had a bad reputation, and its sphere of influence was not as vast as the Righteous Path. Although there were underhanded dealings among the different sects on the Righteous Path, they dared not cross the line overtly, whereas the Demon Sect had no bottom line.

Any way you thought about it, the Righteous Path was better.

As Dongfang Hongyue’s mind was filled with wild thoughts, Liu Ji stepped forward and extended an olive branch to Lin Yun.

"You are quite good, upright and unyielding, great material for sword training. I want to take you as my personal disciple. Are you willing?"

Lin Yun: "..."

This...

Seeing Liu Ji daring to stand up to Jiang Chenyu, Lin Yun had somewhat guessed his identity, but now this big shot wanted to take me as his disciple?

However, of course, he wouldn’t agree.

He still had the identity of an undercover agent from the Green Lotus Sect and it wouldn’t be right to turn around and join the Green Lotus Sect again.

What, going undercover right to your own boss’s side?

"If you see that I am an upright person, then you must know that I firmly refuse to join the Demon Sect, for those with different paths do not scheme together!"

These words dealt another heavy blow to Dongfang Hongyue.

Liu Ji, on the other hand, unsheathed his sword decisively, smiling and saying, "Very well, then I shall teach you a lesson: too much rigidity leads to easy breakage. I’ll give you one last chance to consider: will you become my disciple, or shall I kill you?"

Lin Yun: "..."

Could the Palace Master over there stop being AFK? The enemy boss is getting in my face, I’ve done my taunting, won’t you deal some damage?

In Lin Yun’s anticipation, Jiang Chenyu finally spoke.

"You have underestimated the heroes of the world. I see that this young fellow is full of righteousness, he will certainly not be coerced by you."

Lin Yun almost spat blood, this person actually stole my lines!

This woman is really not a good person, Lin Yun also experienced that feeling of being caught between a rock and a hard place.

If he didn’t submit, the person before him was the Demon Lord, if he really made a move, I might end up dead right here.

Is it possible to act yourself to death?

But if I just give in, what about my dignity?

Ah right, didn’t my wife Hongyue say that it’s fine to betray her if it’s to save my own life?

So...

"Liu Ji, you are really regressing more as you age. A man of several hundred years bullying a junior."

Just as Lin Yun was prepared to compromise, accompanied by a burst of wind and thunder, a woman clad in a purple robe descended.

The comer was the Sect Leader of Shenxiao Sect, Fang Yu.

Upon receiving Jiang Chenyu’s message, Fang Yu immediately used the Wind-Thunder Escape Technique to arrive at the battlefield, with such speed that even Jiang Chenyu was taken aback.

"It seems, she and the Qinglian Sword Venerable indeed have a story that can’t be told,"

Jiang Chenyu pondered to herself, feeling somewhat reassured.

With Fang Yu present, 2v3, they weren’t necessarily bound to lose.

Liu Ji, upon seeing Fang Yu, also felt a headache coming on.

Even hotheaded fools fear crazy women.

Especially a crazy woman like Fang Yu with such a high cultivation level. Although his cultivation was not weaker than Fang Yu’s, he had, after all, stolen the sword techniques from the Shenxiao Sect and had accepted their kindling of the flame of favor. If it really came down to a fight, he wouldn’t be able to strike to kill.

Hotheaded fool he might be, but Liu Ji naturally had his own sense of restraint.

People of the Demon Sect might not be good, but they were still people, each with their own bottom line.

Seeing Fang Yu appear, Liu Ji very neatly pretended not to see her.

Seeing Liu Ji so consciously back down, Fang Yu didn’t continue to provoke him, instead turning her attention to Lin Yun.

"I’ve already heard about your situation. Fortune and gifts greatly aid in cultivation, but the nature of one’s heart is key to achieving Dao. You possess both excellent fortune and gifts, and you are so upright. My Shenxiao Sect is in need of juniors like you. So, how about it, becoming my disciple?"

With such a great opportunity, of course one would bow in acceptance!

"Lin Yun pays respects to Master."

Lin Yun hadn’t forgotten that his original plan was to join the Shenxiao Sect as an undercover disciple. Now that he could become a disciple of the Sect Leader, that was a direct leap to his goal— there was no reason not to agree.

And watching Lin Yun standing beside Fang Yu with a harmonious look, Dongfang Hongyue felt a pang of bitterness in her heart.

Fang Yu was quite good-looking, too.

Although she lacked the soft beauty of a woman, that valiant appearance had its own unique charm.

This ungrateful disciple, most skilled in deceiving his master and destroying his ancestors, who knows if Fang Yu would end up like her?

Dongfang Hongyue even began to feel resentful, wishing she could expose Lin Yun’s identity.

But then she calmed down again.

Forget it, even if Lin Yun truly wanted to join the Righteous Path and no longer acknowledge her as his master, based on their past acquaintance, she would make this happen for him just this once...

But why had it turned out like this? It was her who arrived first!

Yet Dongfang Hongyue couldn’t help but hold onto a sliver of hope— perhaps Lin Yun’s heart was still with her?

In any case, she refrained from any rash actions.

And seeing Lin Yun become a disciple of Fang Yu caused those with hidden intentions great concern.

Damn it, the Shenxiao Sect’s strength was no less than that of Guanghan Palace. Now with Lin Yun under the protection of the Shenxiao Sect, he was no longer easy prey.

This seemed reasonable; once the impulse for murder and robbery cooled, upon reflection, treasures are possessed by those capable. Among the Righteous Path, other than the Taiqing Daoist Temple, it was the Shenxiao Sect and the Guanghan Palace that were the strongest.

For these two sects to obtain the treasure, wasn’t that quite normal?

If any other power had gained the treasure, they would be no different from Lin Yun, and they might not be able to keep it. They might even invite disaster upon themselves.

For a while, the designs of those people significantly waned.

Wang Wanqiu, however, was growing anxious.

How had Lin Yun managed to become a disciple of the Shenxiao Sect?

Originally, seeing that Lin Yun had protection, she was excited. After all, Lin Yun was also a disciple of the Sword Sect; the techniques he acquired would be the same as those of the Sword Sect, wouldn’t they?

But now that the Shenxiao Sect was involved, it was a different story. Among the seven sects, the Sword Sect was merely a last-place participant, how could they dare to challenge the Shenxiao Sect.

But then again, were they to just hand over the Divine Spirit’s techniques so easily?

As Wang Wanqiu was feeling unwilling, at this time, Zhang Biyu finally stepped forward.

As one of the three majors of the Demon Sect, Zhang Biyu was also under great pressure.

Brother Ji had fallen at the feet of a woman, and Dongfang Hongyue seemed to have lost her wits, possibly deceived by a pretty boy. At this moment, only she could turn the tide!
