Wu Shattered Star River

The scout nodded and said, "Yes, Sect Leader Jiang, it is indeed your son!"

Jiang Han's gaze turned to Yan Huigang, who explained, "Recently, you've been making quite a stir in the north. I was worried the north might target your family, so I arranged for scouts to keep a secret watch."

"Jiang Han… Qinglin wouldn't normally come down the mountain. This Elder… there's something wrong!"

"Let's go take a look!"

Yan Huigang nodded. Jiang Han's combat power was very strong, an Elder was nothing, just an ordinary Dao Ancestor Realm cultivator. It would be as easy as flipping his hand for Jiang Han to kill him.

Once he left Yan Huigang's office, Jiang Han immediately turned invisible, while Yan Huigang himself headed towards Yulan Lane.

Upon arriving nearby, Jiang Han entered Yulan Lane first and casually investigated. He quickly found Qinglin.

Yulan Lane was actually a brothel, but neither Qinglin nor the Dao Ancestor Realm cultivator with him had called for any girls. Qinglin had probably just arrived and had just taken a seat.

The Elder exchanged a few pleasantries with Qinglin, then said, "Young Master Qinglin, the matter I'm about to discuss is highly confidential. Should I activate a formation?"

Qinglin looked somewhat wary, but considering that this was Bright City, he thought for a moment and said, "You may!"

Jiang Han had already entered at this moment, standing to the side, invisible, watching.

The Elder cast a ray of light, and the formation within the small hall was activated. Qinglin asked, "Elder Yu, you said… there's a problem with the Winterfrost Gate?"

"Yes!"

Elder Yu said, "Young Master Qinglin, you should have heard about your father's exploits, right? He's been on a killing spree in the north, slaughtering many large clans of the Dark Dao."

Qinglin nodded. Elder Yu continued, "The Dark Dao harbors deep hatred for Sect Leader Jiang. Some time ago, they arranged for an Eighth Level Dao Ancestor Realm cultivator to try and destroy the Winterfrost Gate."

"But we in the Intelligence Division discovered it and arranged for a strong cultivator to intercept him in advance. Unfortunately… this cultivator was very skilled at escaping, and he got away."

A cold light flashed in Qinglin's eyes. He had heard of this matter. The Winterfrost Gate had sent a message, telling them to be careful.

Qinglin pondered for a moment and said, "Then Elder Yu, the important information you mentioned is…"

Elder Yu paused for a moment and said, "According to feedback from our Intelligence Division, the Winterfrost Gate may have been infiltrated. There is a Dao Ancestor Realm cultivator inside who has been bought off by the Dark Dao."

"But the information hasn't been confirmed yet. I called you out here hoping you would remind the current Gate Master of the Winterfrost Gate to be careful. This matter hasn't been confirmed, so you must not publicize it!"

"What?"

Qinglin's expression changed drastically, a look of urgency on his face. He asked, "A Dao Ancestor Realm cultivator has been bought off by the Dark Dao? Do you know who it is? I'll immediately send a message to Grandpa Yao and Grandma Zhen."

"Heh heh!"

Elder Yu revealed a bitter expression and said, "If I knew who it was, I would have already reported it to the Hall of Punishments and had them captured directly."

"This news was sent by an inside contact from the Dark Dao. We haven't been able to investigate accurate information yet, we can only confirm that a Dao Ancestor Realm cultivator has been bought off."

"That's why I arranged to meet you, to have you pass the message to Gate Master Yao and Gate Master Zhen, just to have them be careful."

After Elder Yu finished speaking, his expression became solemn, and he urged, "Young Master Qinglin, this matter… must not be publicized, you cannot tell any cultivator, including your mother and them."

"Because the matter hasn't been confirmed yet, spreading the news would be like hitting the grass to scare the snake, and it would also implicate the inside contact in the Dark Dao."

"I'm violating discipline by doing this. If Sect Leader Yuan Xu finds out, I will be severely punished."

"If it weren't for my special respect for Sect Leader Jiang, I wouldn't risk passing this message to you…"

Qinglin's expression turned stern, and he quickly stood up and bowed, "Thank you, Elder Yu. I will definitely not spread this matter, I will send a message to Grandma Zhen immediately. Grandpa Yao isn't at the Winterfrost Gate… uh…"

After Qinglin finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something. He had no way to directly send a message. Because the transmission array was on Azure Peak, if he used it, Si Li and the others would definitely find out!

Elder Yu asked, "What's wrong? Young Master Qinglin!"

Qinglin hesitated for a moment and said, "Elder Yu, if I were to send a message to Grandma Zhen, I would need to go to Azure Peak to use the transmission array. At that time, my mother and them would definitely find out!"

"No!"

Elder Yu said with a firm expression, "This matter must absolutely not be publicized, otherwise if it reaches Sect Leader Yuan Xu's ears, I will be severely punished, and my position as Elder will be jeopardized!"

"Then what should I do?"

Qinglin suddenly became anxious. He said, "Then I have no way to send a message to Grandma Zhen."

Elder Yu pondered for a moment and said, "You can teleport to Skywater Sect. Skywater Sect should have a transmission array that can teleport to Winterfrost Gate."

"Go alone, secretly inform your Grandma Zhen of the news, then immediately return. Remember… this matter can only be known by your Grandma Zhen."

"And tell her not to publicize it, to pay more attention to observation, and if she discovers a problem, capture the traitor, then secretly take them down and send a message back to the Intelligence Division."

"I understand!"

Qinglin nodded and walked outside. After taking two steps, a bitter expression appeared on his face, and he said, "Elder Yu, I don't know how to teleport to Skywater Sect? And… can I teleport?"

"Sigh… forget it!"

Elder Yu gritted his teeth and said, "I'll take you there. Can you disguise your identity? Change your appearance, that way it will avoid exposing your whereabouts and be safer!"

"I have it!"

Qinglin's space ring glowed, and he took out a treasure. His figure also changed.

Elder Yu nodded and said, "Then let's go, we'll go quickly and return quickly, we can't stay outside for too long!"

Elder Yu opened the formation of the main hall and led Qinglin outside.

Jiang Han had been watching coldly from the side, without taking any action. After Elder Yu and Qinglin walked out, he followed them.

Yan Huigang was lurking nearby. Seeing Elder Yu and Qinglin heading straight towards a large hall, he became somewhat anxious and looked around, wanting to catch up and intercept them.

"Don't act!"

Jiang Han's voice transmission rang in Yan Huigang's ears. He said, "They're going to Skywater Sect. You find a way to delay them, make their teleportation slower, and then send a message to the Skywater Sect Sect Leader to meet them. There should still be traitors on the Skywater Sect side, this time we'll wipe out all these traitors in one fell swoop!"

Qinglin had been pampered since he was young, well protected by the Jiang family and the Azure Emperor, and hadn't experienced too many things, so he had been deceived by Elder Yu.

But Jiang Han had seen through it at a glance.

If there really was a traitor in the Winterfrost Gate, Elder Yu would never have come to find Qinglin. With Jiang Han's current status, if Pei Yuanxu knew, he would immediately make secret arrangements, would he still need Qinglin to report to Zhen Ji?

There were many loopholes in Elder Yu's words. Qinglin was inexperienced, or perhaps he was confused by concern, and didn't notice the problem at all.

This Elder Yu was a traitor, he probably wanted to abduct Qinglin!

But this Elder Yu was only at the Second Level of the Dao Ancestor Realm, his combat power wasn't enough. Even if he captured Qinglin, he wouldn't be able to take him away, so there must be a higher-level traitor on the Skywater Sect side.

Daring to attack his family, Jiang Han naturally couldn't let them go, he was prepared to kill them all.
