"This..."
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian's brows furrowed.
This way, he didn't know who the traitor was.
On the other side, seeing Ye Cangtian's grim expression, Dongfang Mingyue stepped forward and said, "Stinky brother, you've fought with the opponent. Don't you have any judgment or guesses?"
"I do!"
"That traitor was dressed quite plainly, and I even tested the opponent... Judging by everything, I'm eighty percent sure that the traitor is Chen Yi."
"But there's still a two percent chance I have to consider. What if the opponent is Hao Tian, who deliberately disguised himself as Chen Yi and used Chen Yi's mannerisms to deceive me, so I can't be sure."
Ye Cangtian frowned and recounted the matter of testing the traitor.
"This traitor is indeed cunning. No wonder he could hide in the Hidden Group for so many years!"
Dongfang Mingyue, upon hearing this, also understood the difficulty and muttered to herself.
"Don't worry about the traitor for now. It won't be long before I believe the traitor will reveal themselves."
Ye Cangtian said slowly.
He believed the traitor would not give up and would continue to make a move.
Even if not, the Medicine Saint would come to the Hidden Group soon. At that time, he could find a way to communicate with the Medicine Saint and try to obtain the traitor's true identity.
As he spoke, Ye Cangtian changed the subject and inquired about the recent situation of the Hidden Group.
Dongfang Mingyue did not hide anything.
As of now, everything in the Hidden Group was going quite well since Chen Yi and Hao Tian left.
Dongfang Mingyue had rushed to administer the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir to her third batch of subordinates. Now, these people had all emerged from seclusion and were guarding Dragon City, ready to be dispatched by headquarters.
As for the remaining Nine Revolutions Golden Elixirs, Dongfang Mingyue chose to seal them.
There were now ninety more Earth-level powerhouses, which was enough for her to handle everything. The remaining Nine Revolutions Golden Elixirs would be kept for emergencies.
"What about the performance of those forces coveting the Hidden Group's Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir?"
Seeing that the Hidden Group was developing well, Ye Cangtian asked another question.
Dongfang Mingyue quickly replied, "Not bad. They did come to the Hidden Group, and under our strong stance, they eventually chose to compromise..."
Dongfang Mingyue stated that those forces had indeed harbored ill intentions, but the Hidden Group was not to be trifled with, especially after the third batch of Earth-level powerhouses emerged.
Those forces realized that using force against the Hidden Group would only lead to their own suffering, so they chose to compromise.
Some forces dared not go to the ruins entrance alone, fearing excessive casualties, so some chose to form temporary alliances.
After obtaining benefits later, they would distribute the benefits based on merit and contribution standards. However, that was a matter for later and was no longer under the jurisdiction of the Hidden Group.
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian's face broke into a smile. He had finally received some good news.
With these forces jointly guarding the entrance to the ruins, the situation at the entrance would be absolutely impregnable, and the Hidden Group's casualties would be significantly reduced.
Thinking this, Ye Cangtian spoke again, "What's the situation at the entrance?"
As soon as he spoke, Ye Cangtian clearly felt Dongfang Mingyue's expression turn grim, and the atmosphere became much more oppressive.
His heart skipped a beat. Could something have happened at the ruins entrance?
"Although Yin Tao, Jian Wusheng, and Bai Zhenshan are stationed at the ruins entrance, the situation is not very optimistic."
"The Guangming Hall has sent very strong individuals for this operation. It is said to be a joint operation led by the Inner Hall with the Outer Hall as support."
"Some battle reports were received previously. The first battle broke out at the entrance, and although they successfully repelled the opponent, the Hidden Group also suffered considerable casualties."
Dongfang Mingyue stated that although some forces within the ruins had provided reinforcements.
However, most of these forces were stationed in the Hidden City within the ruins.
Firstly, many of these forces could not pass through the entrance array.
Secondly, few of them dared to rush to the front line, fearing heavy casualties.
Unless the Guangming Hall advanced into the ruins, they would fight desperately only when absolutely necessary.
In addition, the medical conditions at the entrance were also very limited, which meant that some severely injured personnel could not receive effective treatment and thus lost their lives...
Hearing this news, Ye Cangtian's brows furrowed.
The Inner Hall of the Guangming Hall had made a move, and even Yin Tao could not control the situation. Just as he had expected, the Guangming Hall had finally become anxious and sent real experts.
And these experts were at least quasi-Heavenly level existences.
Thinking of the casualties of the Hidden Group, Ye Cangtian was filled with murderous intent. Since the opponent had come, he would find ways to keep them here.
And he would kill as many as they sent!
He wanted to see how much foundation the Inner Hall of the Guangming Hall had and how many quasi-Heavenly level powerhouses they could send.
With this in mind, Ye Cangtian said, "Sister Mingyue, you continue to stay at headquarters. I'll handle the matters outside. I'll rush to the ruins entrance tomorrow morning!"
"No, it's too dangerous. Unless you bring Elder Long with you!"
Dongfang Mingyue immediately became anxious when she heard this.
There were still traitors to be dealt with in the Hidden Group. If Ye Cangtian were to act alone, he might be targeted by the traitor, and the consequences could be dire.
If Ye Cangtian were to have an accident, it would be a great loss to the Hidden Group.
After all, Ye Cangtian was already a ninth-level expert, and it was only a matter of time before he broke through to the Heavenly level.
No one knew better than her what a Heavenly level powerhouse meant to the Hidden Group.
Coupled with Ye Cangtian's abilities in all aspects, he was undoubtedly the future of the Hidden Group. Therefore, Dongfang Mingyue would rather suffer an accident herself than let him have one.
"No, Elder Long should stay by your side so that I have no worries at all!"
"Sister Mingyue, you must know that this is not only the heart of the Hidden Group, but also where you and Bao'er are. Nothing must happen to you!"
"As for me, you don't need to worry. Even if that traitor attacks me now, I have the ability to protect myself!"
Ye Cangtian said slowly.
What he worried about most was the situation of the backyard catching fire. Only when the rear was peaceful could he do other things with all his might.
As for his safety, he was not lying.
Although he was in a bit of a sorry state the last time he fought with the traitor, he was not entirely without the power to fight back.
It was evident that the opponent was very wary of his mental attacks. Besides that, he had not revealed all his trump cards.
Don't forget, he still had the Dragon Control Seal and the Dark Seal, two major seals!
"This..."
Hearing Ye Cangtian's words, Dongfang Mingyue's eyes flickered.
She was very gratified and moved that he was thinking of her, but she was still very uneasy thinking that Ye Cangtian might face Heavenly level powerhouses alone.
But before she could speak, Ye Cangtian's voice came again.
"Sister Mingyue, don't worry too much about me. I have a strategy that might be able to distract the traitor."
"What strategy?"
Dongfang Mingyue quickly asked.
Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and said, "Sister Mingyue, you are truly wise in all but this one instance! Have you forgotten that there are three super forces in the world!"
Huh?
With one sentence, Dongfang Mingyue was stunned for a moment, but the next moment she understood Ye Cangtian's meaning, and her eyes lit up brilliantly.
Yes! How could she forget the Dark Association!
