Chapter 234: Make the Virtual Real and the Real Virtual
"It seems that the ancestor specifically named you to join the sect, not only because you are a talented person, but also because he calculated that you are a savior of our Dali Sword Sect!"
Zhenren Yong'an suddenly said with deep emotion.
"If you hadn't noticed the reappearance of the Blood Moon Eclipse, we still don't understand what kind of opponent we are facing. Perhaps the Red Moon Tribulation of the past will happen again!"
Zhenren Hailing said solemnly: "The current situation is still not optimistic! Since the Blood Moon Eclipse in Chu Yunhe's body has been dormant for many years, it means that the Demon Lord has already reappeared, and his hand has already reached into our Dali Sword Sect. In addition to these two people, there may be others who have already defected to the Red Moon Demon Sect..."
"Even among the Zhenren elders, some may have changed their minds..."
When it came to the last sentence, Zhenren Hailing's voice was extremely low, both indignant and heartbroken.
Li Wangji said in a serious tone: "There is no need to be so secretive. Let me speak frankly. Among the elders, there must be people who have defected, and there may be more than one! Otherwise, with Brother Hailing's ability, it is impossible that he has not found any clues about the person behind the scenes!"
Everyone was shocked. Only Li Wangji, the head of the sect, dared to speak frankly.
"However, we don't need to be timid because of this. After all, it's not ten thousand years ago now. Even if the Demon Lord reappears, it's just a resurgence. The Red Moon Demon Cult is no longer as powerful as it was before. Otherwise, they wouldn't have to hide and lie dormant until now!"
"The most urgent task is to find out the real purpose of the Red Moon remnants as soon as possible. Since they have begun to take action, it means that they must have a more ambitious goal, not just to slaughter a bunch of disciples in the Xiaolitian Secret Realm!"
"The ultimate purpose of their actions must be to serve the Demon Lord. Only by finding out their real purpose can we follow the clues and find out the true identity of the Demon Lord, and solve this problem once and for all."
Master Hailing nodded: "I wonder what plan the master has? I would like to hear more!"
Li Wangji did not answer, but turned his gaze to Lu Yu, his eyes meaningful.
Lu Yu was startled and said quickly: "Master, what are you looking at me for? With such a serious matter, I can't help you with my little arms and legs!"
Fang Haoran said dissatisfiedly: "Don't be so cunning, kid! Master Brother hasn't spoken yet, how do you know you can't help?"
"Besides, can't you identify the Blood Moon Eclipse..."
Fang Haoran suddenly thought of a clever plan, his eyes lit up: "Why not take him in for a walk when the next meeting of the Elders' Council decides how to deal with this kid, so that it will be clear who is the accomplice of the Red Moon Demon Cult?"
"What a joke!"
Lu Yu showed a toothache expression, he has personally experienced how powerful the power of the real body is. In front of such power, he will be crushed into slag at any time, and there is no chance to see whether the Blood Moon Eclipse is hidden in the power of others.
"I was able to find Xu Mingshen because he entered my alchemy furnace; I was able to find Chu Yunhe because I risked half my life! With the strength of a real person, I can't do this at all..."
Lu Yu glanced at Fang Haoran.
"Don't say the real elder, even if it's you, Deacon Fang, I can't tell whether it's the remnant of the Red Moon Demon Cult without the Blood Moon Eclipse!"
"You... don't talk nonsense!"
Fang Haoran was very depressed. This kid really holds a grudge and never forgets to say a few words to him whenever he has a chance.
Li Wangji looked at Fang Haoran and smiled, "Don't worry, I didn't plan to ask you to verify your identity with the elders one by one, but you caused such a big mess this time, which made everyone angry. A lot of people clamored to execute you on the spot. How do you want us to deal with you?"
Lu Yu always felt that Li Wangji was hiding something in his words, but he couldn't guess what he meant for a while, so he had to say obediently, "Disciple dare not speak nonsense! The elders are very observant. Now that they know the whole story, they will naturally clear my name!"
"Innocent?"
Li Wangji smiled, "You can ignore the killing of Chu Yunhe, but you started a killing spree in Yuanjiang Market City, violently resisted the law, and finally destroyed the entire Yuanjiang Market City. These actions are not innocent anyway!"
Lu Yu couldn't help but feel nervous, and his heart was pounding.
What does Li Wangji mean by saying this? Does he want to be ruthless and ruthless?
"But..."
Li Wangji changed his tone and continued: "Considering that all your actions are justified and your heart is not bad, it is not impossible to let you off the hook. As long as you are willing to make amends, I will not pursue this matter any further. How about that?"
"Make amends?" Lu Yu asked.
Li Wangji looked at Master Hailing and Master Yong'an on the side and finally told his real plan.
"The fact that Chu Yunhe is a remnant of the Red Moon cannot be disclosed to the Council of Elders for the time being, otherwise it will alert the enemy. However, if this matter is not disclosed, the Council of Elders will certainly find it difficult to agree not to impose severe punishment. In this case, only by making the true message of the Yunxiao Patriarch public can the Council of Elders be convinced..."
"But after the true message of the Yunxiao Patriarch is announced, the remnants of the Red Moon lurking among the real people will definitely take action. I plan to punish Lu Yu to Wuwang Mountain for hard labor, using this as bait, and wait for the traitor to take the bait and reveal his true identity. What do you think?"
Wuwang Mountain has a special geographical location, with many magic arrays throughout, and it is difficult for ordinary people to enter. If you want to deal with Lu Yu, you must act as a real person.
Master Yong'an nodded: "Using stillness to control movement, this is a great plan!"
Master Hailing also agreed: "It's better than looking for a needle in a haystack like now!"
But Fang Haoran said: "But what if the Red Moon remnants lurking among the elders don't take the bait?"
Li Wangji said with a wit in his hand: "Then we will spend some more time and create confusion. We will say that the old ancestor Yunxiao predicted the catastrophe through the divine calculations of the heavens and conveyed a secret decree to him! In this way, the Red Moon remnants will be guilty and will definitely not be able to hold back!"
Fang Haoran also had no objection.
"Master, it's a good idea! Let's do it this way!"
Under such circumstances, Yang Chudie naturally couldn't express her opinion.
Now, it seems that the matter is about to be set in stone.
"Wait a minute!"
Lu Yu shouted hurriedly.
"What? Do you have any objections?" Fang Haoran said with a squint, "It's already very good that you are not executed on the spot. What else do you want?"
Li Wangji also said: "This plan does have certain risks, but it is the only solution. If you tell the truth directly to the Council of Elders, the remnants of the Red Moon Demon Cult will still want to kill you, but in this way they will also know that they have been exposed, and their actions will be more cautious and secretive, and more difficult to guard against!"
Lu Yu knew that Li Wangji was telling the truth. This plan was indeed a good plan, but after all, it was risking his life, so he naturally couldn't agree easily.
"I didn't say I disagree, but we can slightly change some of the details to make it safer!" Lu Yu smiled.
"How to change it?"
Everyone looked at him with curiosity.
"I can cooperate with your plan and go to Wuwang Mountain to serve hard labor, but after I get there, I must leave quietly. Anyway, it's all to deceive the remnants of the Red Moon Demon Cult. How about we use an empty city plan for him?" Lu Yu said.
Fang Haoran curled his lips and said disdainfully: "I thought it was a good plan, but it's just cowardice!"
Lu Yu retorted: "What do you know? This is called pretending to be real when it's fake, pretending to be fake when it's real. It's easier to fool the enemy when it's fake and real!"
Li Wangji thought about it seriously, and finally nodded.
"That's not a bad idea!"
