  “Senior Brother Ji Qiu?”


  Jiang Lan closed the surrounding array formation and arrived in front of Ji Qiu.

  “This maze array formation is quite powerful. Did Junior Brother set it up?”


  Ji Qiu asked curiously when he saw Jiang Lan.

  “I’ve embarrassed myself in front of Senior Brother,” Jiang Lan said softly.

  “Junior brother is too modest.” Ji Qiu didn’t speak any further, and he withdrew a piece of paper before passing it to Jiang Lan.

  “This is the name list. Junior brother, you can give it to Martial Uncle of the Ninth Summit.”


  Jiang Lan took the list, a bit surprised.

  He did not know what the name list meant.

  “What list is this?”


  Jiang Lan thought for a while. There hadn’t been anything happening in Kunlun recently.

  He had never heard of any outfield training meant for the disciples.

  If there was, his master would have mentioned it.

  But there was nothing.

  “Junior, do you still remember the first time we met?” Ji Qiu asked.

  Killing spies under the Ninth Summit?

  This list is…


  “It’s exactly as Junior Brother thinks.” Ji Qiu did not allow Jiang Lan to voice out the doubts in his heart. He then decided to leave.

  “Junior brother, remember to give it to Martial Uncle of the Ninth Summit. Oh, right, you can open the name list.

  To be handed over to you means that you have the right to know. ”


  “Thank you for informing me, Senior Brother.” Jiang Lan thanked him in a low voice.

  After sending Ji Qiu off, Jiang Lan took the list and headed to the peak of the Ninth Summit.

  Along the way, he opened the list.

  With just a glance, his pupils shrank.

  It had exceeded his expectations.

  The paper was filled with the names of nearly 200 people.

  And there was even a general description of each person.

  What surprised him was the description.

  1. First Summit’s Yao Jin (Newcomer, Bloodthirsty, To be cleared)

  2. First Summit’s Gan Ling (Newcomer, Low concealing ability, To be cleared)

  …


  34. Third Summit’s Liu Shu (Detected by fellow disciple, To be cleared)

  35. Third Summit’s Bie Ling (Fought with fellow disciple, Loses control of himself easily, To be cleared)

  …


  76. Fourth Summit’s Jiao Mo (Existed for 300 years, no longer of value, To be cleared)

  77. Fourth Summit’s Yu Yuan (No harm to the sect, Stable in all aspects, Knowledgeable, Often spreading news of the various large factions, Allowed to stay on temporarily)

  …


  135. Sixth Summit’s You Li (Tried to start an internal fight, Overly obvious, To be cleared)

  156. Sixth Summit’s Fang Chen (Came with intention of killing the Goddess, To be cleared)

  …


  Jiang Lan looked at the last few names.

  188. Eighth Summit’s Li Cang (Heavenly Human Race’s spy, Missing in action, Should be killed)

  189. Seventh Summit’s Mo Wei (Demon Race’s spy, Died in Ice Cicada Forest, Killed)

  190. Sixth Summit’s Wei Hua (Underground Devil Race’s spy, Missing in action, Should have escaped)

  …


  After reading the list, Jiang Lan felt his back getting wet.

  The Second Summit was a little terrifying.

  He even suspected that he had been on the suspect list.

  Again…


  After all that he had done, would he be easily discovered by the other party?

  He had to be more careful in the future.

  However, he now knew that Kunlun already knew about the existence of spies.

  Furthermore, spies who were not outstanding enough were not allowed to enter Kunlun.

  Those with the lack of patience, perseverance and control would be cleared as soon as they entered.

  They were not given any chances.

  But why did Kunlun let them in?

  There was also a person who wanted to kill Xiao Yu.

  For a moment, Jiang Lan felt that Kunlun was controlling everything.

  Indeed, a force that could obtain the Deity Position without having to fight was not something that could be understood by common sense.

  But why?

  It was a really bewildering behavior.

  Was it related to Imperial Lord Xi He?

  It was impossible to guess.

  Then, he shifted his gaze to the position of the Heavenly Human Race spy.

  He was rather sensitive towards the Heavenly Human Race because they might have come for him.

  However, this person was killed.

  No one knew who did it.

  He’d killed some before too. However, he didn’t know if it was recorded.

  Thankfully, the Second Summit wasn’t always watching him. Otherwise, it would be too terrifying.

  Of course, Jiang Lan could confirm that he wasn’t targeted.

  He would know if someone was watching him.

  Even if Imperial Lord Xi He were to place his gaze on him, he would still be able to sense it.

  It was difficult for the others to stare at him silently.

  He still had One Leaf Shrouding The Sky on top of his One Leaf Vision.

  He exhaled lightly.

  He stopped thinking about it.

  Kunlun was not as simple as he had imagined. It was normal for him to not understand certain things.

  There were some which were just acts of illusion.

  In the end, he still had to become stronger.

  His cultivation speed was very fast now. There was a chance.

  He had to first see his master’s cultivation level before surpassing it.

  It was much easier after that.

  …


  “Master, the list from the Second Summit.” Jiang Lan handed the list to his master.

  Mo Zhengdong took a casual glance and stopped paying attention. He asked Jiang Lan.

  “You’ve seen it?”


  “I did,” Jiang Lan replied honestly.

  “Any objections?” Mo Zhengdong asked.

  “No.” Jiang Lan shook his head.

  He knew none on the list.

  Mo Zhengdong nodded slightly. Then, he waved his hand, and the name list was burnt to ashes.

  “Do you have any questions?” Mo Zhengdong asked Jiang Lan.

  Jiang Lan knew that his master wanted to explain the list of names.

  Therefore, he asked the question in his heart.

  “Why did Kunlun let these people in?”


  He didn’t question anything. He was just curious.

  And he wasn’t worried about being in danger.

  Because danger was always present. It would not disappear just because there were fewer spies.

  Where there were many people, there would naturally be fights.

  Survival of the fittest.

  Everyone had different personalities, different temperaments and made different choices.

  Whether there was danger or whether they were going to the extreme, it all depended on a single thought.

  “This is very complicated. You’ll be able to understand it when your cultivation is higher,” said Mo Zhengdong.

  Jiang Lan nodded.

  It was not like he wanted to know it badly.

  He would know once he had cultivated enough.

  Just like the matter regarding the spies.

  In the past, he only knew that there were many spies, but now that he was at the early-stage Void Refinement Realm, he already had a rough idea.

  …


  …


  After returning from the peak of the Ninth Summit, Jiang Lan had no intention of leaving the Ninth Summit.

  The Second Summit began to clean up the spies.

  This meant that the forest below the Ninth Summit would once again become a hunting ground.

  It was definitely dangerous for him.

  Therefore, he should cultivate in peace during this period of time and fully figure out the Deity Position to eliminate its influence.

  He sat in the courtyard during the day and closed his eyes to experience his body. Only then could he understand the connection between the Deity Position and his body.

  From there, he could control it and fuse it into his body, allowing his One Leaf Shrouding The Sky to hide it.

  Nighttime was the time to cultivate.

  His cultivation speed was even faster than before.

  Currently, he had been in the sect for 310 years. If everything went well, in another 80 years, he would have a chance of becoming a Heaven Immortal.

  His speed was incredible.

  Three months passed in a flash.

  Before dawn.

  Jiang Lan, who was about to end his cultivation, suddenly felt a change in the array formation.

  Following that, the array formation lost its sound. In the next moment, his One Leaf Vision activated automatically.

  Jiang Lan instantly opened her eyes.

  He was startled awake.

  “Is someone divining matters regarding me?”


  Looking up, he saw a powerful presence trying to figure out where he was.

  “What should come will always come.”
