The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 874 - 279: Zhou Qing Is Completely Furious, Then Let’s Go to War!

Cao Zhengyang also stroked his beard with a smile, Zhou Qing's words were indeed like waking a dreamer from a dream.

He truly is the Junior Sect Leader I have chosen.

At this moment, even Yan Xiaohu is discreetly looking towards Zhou Qing.

Everyone's got a brain, just how does yours grow?

"I will arrange it immediately as you suggest!" Cao Zhengyang said, his face showing appreciation, agreeing to Zhou Qing's method.

Just at this moment, Elder Wuzhu suddenly sent a message saying a disciple from the Golden Thunder Sect has come to defect and brought a pledge.

"This is interesting, bring him in!" Cao Zhengyang responded.

Afterwards, these disciples were uniformly buried, and the defector was brought in.

He was a middle-aged man with somewhat greying hair, possessing Nascent Soul Realm Great Perfection Cultivation.

Upon entering, he directly knelt on both knees: "Junior Tian Hong, pays respect to Sect Leader Cao, and to the Peak Masters."

"You want to defect to my Taiqing Sect?" Cao Zhengyang's piercing gaze scanned the person before him.

Tian Hong kowtowed three times, speaking sincerely: "I am but a common man, able to see the situation clearly. After the Five Sects battle, the Golden Thunder Sect is declining, while our Taiqing Sect flourishes."

"Therefore, I've long wanted to join the Taiqing Sect, but had nothing worthwhile to offer, so I awaited the opportunity."

"These two Imaging Stones are my pledge, please Sect Leader examine them!"

Saying this, Tian Hong took out two Imaging Stones from his Storage Bag and presented them with both hands respectfully.

Everyone exchanged looks, the Peak Master of Flying Snow Peak was the first to take the Imaging Stones. Her expertise was in various poisons.

Even the realm she understood was related to poison, just as they were suspecting the Golden Thunder Sect, someone comes to defect, they must be cautious.

After confirming no hidden toxins, she directly injected Spiritual Power to activate them.

Soon, a scene was projected, showing Lei Wuji and others at night, moving coffins out of a cavern in the desert.

The crowd exchanged looks, seemingly not too surprised.

If not for Shen Yunzhou's special realm, they wouldn't have discovered the Golden Thunder Sect's secret.

But since it was discovered, it makes sense for them to move overnight out of caution.

But as the second Imaging Stone was activated, upon seeing its scene, everyone's faces changed dramatically.

It was also nighttime, but under the moonlight, there was a person standing atop a cliff, twisting his body in an unnatural manner.

His limbs twisted like dead branches, joints making a teeth-gritting "crack" sound.

Thunder Arcs surged on his body, illuminating his face—none other than Lei Wuji, Sect Leader of Golden Thunder Sect.

But his condition was clearly abnormal, his previously majestic robe was in tatters, large areas of skin were exposed, showing bluish-gray corpse spots.

The stench seemed to emanate through the Imaging Stone.

A non-human howl escaped his throat, his eyes nearly bulging from their sockets, blood vessels filling the whites, pupils shrinking to needlepoints, filled with bloodthirsty madness.

He appeared to be in immense pain, silver Thunder Arcs ceaselessly surged, forming a terrifying electric net around him.

Drool dripped from his mouth, his hands crazily scratching his body.

Everywhere his claws passed, flesh turned, blood spattered, yet he seemed oblivious, growing increasingly deranged.

Until the next moment, his momentum seemed to rise, soon breaking through to Divinity Transformation Realm Perfection.

Then he raced, limbs in unison, towards the place constantly flickering in the distance.

There lay the Thunder Pool of Taiqing Sect.

Tian Hong hastily explained: "This is a scene recorded at great risk by me. The Golden Thunder Sect is in demise, I have no reason to stay."

"If Taiqing Sect is interested, now is the perfect time to seize Golden Thunder Sect, and I am willing to be an inside agent...Hmm~"

Before Tian Hong finished speaking, the Peak Master of Hundred Battle Peak had quietly moved behind him, at Cao Zhengyang's indication, a finger pointed at the back of his head.

Directly performing Soul Search.

After a moment, as Ling Yue released his finger, Tian Hong rolled his eyes, and fell rigidly.

"He wasn't lying, these imaging scenes were indeed captured by him!" Ling Yue confirmed.

Zhou Qing stared at the scene, a wave of desolation rising in his heart.

堂堂 five sects' sect leader, in merely a few months, to deteriorate from Shen Yunzhou's initial recorded state to such a terrifying condition.

It seems Corpse Yin Sect left behind was indeed a hidden threat.

But—

Zhou Qing's gaze turned to Tian Hong's convulsing corpse, feeling something amiss.

When he met Sikong Yan at the edge of Canglan Mountain Abyss last time, he accurately described the details of Shen Yunzhou escaping from the cavern, indicating Cangyan Daoist Palace was aware of the place, yet never acted.

Now, just as they discussed the dry corpse matter, Tian Hong brought imaging stones in defection, all evidence pointing to Golden Thunder Sect too smoothly.

It seemed as if someone intentionally fueled the flames, inciting conflict between Taiqing Sect and Golden Thunder Sect.

With suspicion, Zhou Qing proceeded directly to identify.

[Imaging Stone: This is an Imaging Stone imprinted from Master Yuheng's hand, containing the scene of Lei Wuji leading the group to move Corpse Yin Sect's coffin at midnight.]

Seeing the information reflected on the Imaging Stone, Zhou Qing's pupils suddenly contracted.

The first Imaging Stone wasn't recorded by Tian Hong, but replicated from someone else!

"Master, who is Master Yuheng?" Zhou Qing urgently asked.
