Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 1051 - 1047: I Would Rather Die Than Betray Qingfeng Temple
Dragon Spirit followed the people to another larger meeting hall and saw many people inside.
One could say that aside from those few bedridden individuals, everyone else was present here.
Dragon Spirit raised an eyebrow, it seemed while he was watching the Water Curtain in the courtyard, some significant event had occurred.
After Dragon Spirit sat down and leisurely drank a cup of tea, he finally understood what the person sitting above was saying.
"The second Divine Mirror has been stolen, and it’s not far from here..."
The tea in Dragon Spirit’s mouth almost sprayed out.
He couldn’t help but mutter internally: These people’s information network is pretty fast; he had just learned about it himself.
Of course, the only difference was that he clearly knew who took the second copper mirror and even ’saw’ the scene.
Dragon Spirit listened to this expressionless, but his mind was already considering another layer of implications.
The copper mirror disappeared, which should be a confidential matter for these people, so why did they invite an outsider like him here?
Do they suspect him? Or do they trust him more?
This thought swirled in Dragon Spirit’s mind for a while before being dispelled.
Instead, Dragon Spirit adopted a more relaxed posture.
It seemed as if even if the sky fell at that moment, it wouldn’t cause Dragon Spirit to frown.
Dragon Spirit’s calmness formed a stark contrast with the nervousness of others, making him even more conspicuous.
Many local Dark Masters considered themselves to have a good relationship with Dragon Spirit.
So seeing Dragon Spirit act so detached, they couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious.
Dragon Spirit didn’t know what this meeting meant, but they did.
Being invited to this meeting meant the President regarded Mr. Long as one of his own.
And Mr. Long’s skills far surpassed everyone present.
It was impossible for him to be stuck in such a small Border City, so the President wanted to elevate Mr. Long with all his might.
If it were someone else, many present might feel deeply envious.
But when it came to Mr. Long, they didn’t feel the slightest jealousy.
In fact, they also hoped Mr. Long could go further and climb higher.
Given this premise of elevating Mr. Long, his attitude seemed somewhat inappropriate.
Therefore, the person sitting next to Dragon Spirit gently nudged his arm.
Giving him a knowing look, suggesting he blend in a bit more.
This signal was subtle, but Dragon Spirit could discern the implication behind it.
Evidently, of the two possibilities he previously guessed, the latter was more likely.
Dragon Spirit’s mind turned; his original goal was to blend into the core circle to learn more accurate details about the Heavenly Book.
In an instant, Dragon Spirit’s attitude noticeably shifted.
At least, he wasn’t as nonchalant as before, as if nothing was related to him.
His facial expression changed to match the others, as if he had truly integrated into the group. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Now, Yun Ran’s party had entered the spatial rift, and everyone was striving to complete their part of the task.
Meanwhile, outside the spatial rift.
Those who coveted the benefits of Qingfeng Temple finally found an opportunity to incite everyone, and they were reluctant to miss it.
Everyone tacitly rushed to the foot of Qingfeng Temple’s mountain at the fastest speed.
But soon, they were dumbfounded, because no matter what methods they used, they couldn’t take a step into Qingfeng Temple’s territory.
"What’s happening? The road is clearly right ahead; why can’t we enter Qingfeng Temple’s interior?"
"I feel like it’s a Ghost Wall; we seem to have entered, but we’re still wandering outside."
"What on earth is Qingfeng Temple doing, do they think using this trick can stop us?"
"I must say, Qingfeng Temple is really selfish, taking all the advantages for themselves without considering others at all!"
...
Everyone complained, raged, and even envied.
They watched the huge benefits right in front of them, but they couldn’t reach out.
This feeling was even more nerve-wracking than having nothing at all.
Xin Fu returned as quickly as possible.
However, he made some disguises, and seeing that others couldn’t enter Qingfeng Temple’s territory calmed his heart a bit.
But his identity couldn’t be hidden for much longer.
Anyone who knew him was aware that he now had considerable power within Qingfeng Temple.
Therefore, Xin Fu only briefly assessed the situation.
Then he found a less crowded place, intending to see if he could enter Qingfeng Temple.
As for others who hadn’t formally shown themselves or were marked by Qingfeng Temple, Xin Fu dispersed them.
"Infiltrate among those people, and if you detect any schemes, notify me immediately!"
Others, on their way back, originally thought the situation might not be so dire.
But now, seeing so many people gathered here, each felt a bad premonition.
However, even so, they never thought of backing down.
If not for the leader taking them in, those skilled yet without advancement opportunities would have kept wandering at the bottom.
Not to mention gaining resources and continuing their cultivation journey.
There was even a possibility of treading in place, watching themselves slowly walk a mundane path until death.
In the past, they wouldn’t even have had the chance to stand among those gathered here.
The more this was the case, the clearer they became.
The sight of once unreachable people shamelessly gathered here to benefit from Qingfeng Temple said it all.
It meant if they remained loyal to Qingfeng Temple, what they could gain was unimaginable.
"Rest assured, boss, leave this to us!"
With that, those who returned with Xin Fu quickly blended into the crowd, without drawing any suspicion.
Xin Fu coldly watched those angrily accusing Qingfeng Temple, a flash of murderous intent passing through his eyes.
He then turned to leave without any hesitation.
No matter how formidable the crowd, he would rather die than betray Qingfeng Temple!
