The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 144: Catching Infidelity Hundred Percent - Eastern Green Moon (Seventh Update)

Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Catching Infidelity Hundred Percent - Eastern Green Moon (Seventh Update)

As an uninvited guest appeared in the great hall, the scene inside seemed to freeze.

Next to Hu Yuling’s Immortal Sword, more than a dozen Spirit Swords hovered, as if they were small planes flying beside a Thunder Warplane. Zhao Lingyu sat quietly in a corner watching the show, Ming Xin’s Wooden Sword pointed to empty space, and Lin Yun was still holding Lin Yu, just a step back from where he had been before.

Ming Xin could hardly believe it—had that sword strike really been dodged so easily?

Lin Yun wasn’t faring well now either; he could taste the sourness of jealousy.

Seeing that red silhouette, Lin Yun had an epiphany.

"My family’s jar of vinegar has logged on."

"Why do I run into you wherever I go?"

The newcomer was Dongfang Hongyue. As it happened, her visit to the Sword Sect today was purely by prearranged plan.

To ease the tension between the Shenxiao Sect and the Green Lotus Sect, Dongfang Hongyue’s solution was to create a diversion, to demonstrate the strength of the Demon Sect, to make the Righteous Path hesitate, to show the other sects of the Righteous Path the potential disaster that could ensue if a crisis broke out.

The purpose of stirring things up was simply to avoid an even greater conflict. I, the Demon Lord, am working so hard to save the Human Race, to save our nation!

Thus, Dongfang Hongyue found herself at the Sword Sect, which not only owed her money but also lacked substantial strength. Her visit was the perfect opportunity to collect on that debt.

She hadn’t expected that upon her arrival, she would find her beloved disciple, with yet another young and beautiful woman in his arms.

For a moment, Dongfang Hongyue, who had intended to take on the Sword Sect alone, was so furious that she wanted to incinerate Lin Yun on the spot.

Her angered demeanor startled the other members of the Sword Sect.

"Holy shit, this person appeared out of nowhere like a ghost."

Initially, there was chaos between the two sides, but now a more terrifying third party had arrived, making Baili Liuyun’s scalp tingle.

"Sword Sect is certainly lively today."

Dongfang Hongyue said coldly, her gaze lingering on Lin Yun, mainly focusing on Lin Yu in his arms.

"May I ask what important matter brings Lord Dongfang here so unexpectedly?"

Baili Liuyun looked at Dongfang Hongyue, slightly nervous. The Three Teachings of the Demonic Path and the Seven Righteous Sects had formed a temporary alliance due to outside threats, and since then, he had often sided with the Demon Sect. Surely Dongfang Hongyue wouldn’t harm him, right?

But Dongfang Hongyue’s furious appearance gave Baili Liuyun a bad premonition.

"I’m here to settle accounts," she said.

Dongfang Hongyue also felt that something was amiss in the atmosphere. These people were in the midst of a free-for-all, and that person with the Wooden Sword seemed to have aimed at Lin Yun, but he evaded while holding a woman.

So...

Who exactly is that woman!

"Settle accounts?"

Baili Liuyun feigned confusion on the surface, but he actually breathed a sigh of relief. He had been prepared to offer an apology since Dongfang Hongyue had passed by previously, and he had made arrangements in case she showed up, which had caused him a lot of anxiety due to her delay.

Now that she had finally arrived, the matter could be concluded.

"Are you trying to wriggle out of debt? That day you tried to kill me, destroyed my Sunblaze Palace; don’t you think an explanation is owed?"

A Fire Lotus slowly spun in Dongfang Hongyue’s hand, and everyone from the Sword Sect felt immense pressure, with Lin Yun feeling it the most.

He had the nagging feeling that this fire was targeting him...

Lin Yun quickly let go of Lin Yu and made her step back slightly, Lin Yu then realized Lin Yun was unharmed, but she had no time to be happy. The appearance of Dongfang Hongyue made her sense that the situation didn’t bode well.

Instinctively wanting to flee, to her and Lin Yun, the arrival of Dongfang Hongyue was also a stroke of luck. Otherwise, Lin Yun would have sooner or later died at the hands of the Sword Sect.

Lin Yu grabbed Lin Yun’s hand, ready to sneak away unnoticed. This small gesture caused the fire in Dongfang Hongyue’s Fire Lotus to surge once again.

"You’re adding fuel to the fire!"

Baili Liuyun assumed Dongfang Hongyue was just trying to flex her muscles, but given the pressing situation, he had no choice but to compromise. He said, "That was not our intention. With the Demon Tribe causing calamities, both of us being from the Human Race, it is not suitable to have a conflict at this time. Regarding the destruction of Sunblaze Palace, we’re willing to provide compensation."

This was like grasping at a lifeline to step down, pretending to back down for the greater good rather than out of fear of Dongfang Hongyue.

Dongfang Hongyue neither agreed nor disagreed. Baili Liuyun then called someone over to fetch the objects of compensation.

Only then did Dongfang Hongyue turn to look at Lin Yun. She said coldly, "What a coincidence, running into you here. But you do have a knack for it. Last time, there was a sister willing to bet a Divine Artifact for you, and now, there’s a woman who is willing to take a sword for you. Quite admirable indeed!"

To outsiders, there indeed seemed to be some friction between Dongfang Hongyue and Lin Yun; therefore, her having a few mocking words at that moment appeared quite reasonable.

Only Lin Yun knew that no matter how much Dongfang Hongyue said, he had his own translation.

"I’m angry! Who is this woman? You better explain properly!"

Upon seeing Dongfang Hongyue, Lin Yun’s mood lifted as well.

Especially seeing her jealous seemed incredibly cute.

But in Lin Yu’s eyes, Dongfang Hongyue was nothing but terrifying, and it seemed she also held a grudge against Lin Yun.

Hu Yuling had indeed briefly mentioned some of Lin Yun’s experiences, but did not specify which Demon Sect. Could it be that Lin Yun was once undercover in the Red Lotus Sect?

If that was the case, then Lin Yun was in danger!

In the Cultivation World, wisdom is crucial, but strength is what truly decides everything.

Just like now, no matter how much Lin Yu racked her brains, she couldn’t come up with a way to escape from Dongfang Hongyue’s clutches.

"Indeed, it is somewhat coincidental. I just happened to be here handling some trivial matters for the Sword Sect, and I didn’t expect you, Demon Lord, to be here as well. As for this lady, she has a deep relationship with me, but not in the way you imagine. My heart already belongs to another, and as the Demon Lord, you should not sully an innocent’s reputation without cause."

Lin Yun spoke with apparent uprightness, causing even Lin Yu to feel uneasy; Lin Yun was really not afraid of death!

Little did she know, Dongfang Hongyue heard these words and her heart was bursting with joy!

Even though Lin Yun did not explain Lin Yu’s identity, he still said his heart belonged to someone, which clearly meant that he cared only for her.

Dongfang Hongyue felt her heart turn sweet and even a bit excited.

This disciple was really too outrageous!

But secretly flirting in front of a crowd, how thrilling.

Dongfang Hongyue then remembered that when she arrived, there was a battle taking place in the hall. Curiosity blossomed in her heart about why Lin Yun was fighting with the Sword Sect. She feigned indifference and asked, "I saw the Sword Sect people about to kill you before. What, do you have some relationship with the Sword Sect?"

Baili Liuyun then took the opportunity to interject, "Lin Yun is a traitor to our Sword Sect."

Dongfang Hongyue: "..."

"You dare to call him a traitor?"

"This traitor is mine!"
