Chapter 1067: Can’t Get Any Information Out of Them

“Master, there’s one more thing. You…”
Wei Na had something else to tell An Jiuyue. However, An Jiuyue had no time to listen to him since Qian Jiyun had already returned to the boat with a splash.
“Put this on quickly.” An Jiuyue took out a cloak from her space and handed it to Qian Jiyun.
“Okay.” Qian Jiyun took the cloak and put it on. “I’ve already placed the items according to the location drawn. What should we do now?”
“Leave the rest to me.”
An Jiuyue gestured for Qian Jiyun to sit down. She would have to handle the upcoming matters on her own.
Remember, when our boat gets overturned later, get me to the shore. I don’t want to swim in the water,” she reminded Qian Jiyun as she prepared for the next step.
“Okay,” Qian Jiyun replied.
Time passed bit by bit.
Four hours later, Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue had changed into dry clothes and were already sitting in the study.
“Sister-in-Law, I can feel that the demonic energy in the hall has become stronger, ” Bai Ze remarked after sensing that the demonic energy in the surroundings had really grown stronger.
“Really?”
However, MO Aotian was unperturbed. He really did not sense any difference. Everything seemed to remain the same.
Yan Feng and Gu Chi nodded too. They could not sense anything new either. Did they become less sensitive?
“Yes. How can there be no difference?” Bai Ze replied.
An Jiuyue glanced at Bai Ze and said, “Ah Ze, go back and cultivate.”
“Don’t absorb too much demonic energy. If your body absorbs too much demonic energy, I won’t be able to protect you,” she warned.
It was normal for Bai Ze to sense the difference. It was not MO Aotian and the others’ fault, nor was it Bai Ze’s fault. It was just that Bai Ze had the Demon’s Heart within him, so his body involuntarily absorbed the surrounding demonic energy.
Since he had absorbed the demonic energy, MO Aotian and the others could not sense it.
“Use the technique I taught you and cultivate well. Ask me if you don’t understand anything,” she added.
“Alright, Sister-in-Law,” Bai Ze replied.
After glancing at Qian Jiyun, he left the study to cultivate. “Aotian, how’s your investigation going?”
After Bai Ze left, Qian Jiyun asked MO Aotian and Gu Chi.
MO Aotian crossed his arms and replied coldly, “We’ve only identified two people within the hall. We haven’t found out who the mastermind is. Those two seem to be sacrificial warriors. They are tight-lipped. We can’t get any information out of them.”
“Sacrificial warriors?” Qian Jiyun sneered. “Since when could sacrificial warriors enter Jun Lin Hall to carry out missions?”
“Uh.” MO Aotian was stunned.
Sacrificial warriors on Wulong Mountain could not speak. They were born to be trained as sacrificial warriors and would have their tongues cut off.
Those two could obviously speak. They were not sacrificial warriors.
“Hall Master, I only said that they ‘seem to be’. They have the marks of sacrificial warriors. That’s why I investigated them,” he explained.
It would be a simple matter if they were sacrificial warriors.
“The rumors are probably meant to sow discord between you and Bai Ze. But I don’t know what the mastermind is up to..”
