I looked down at my reflection in the water and heard Cai Wenyan say, "Protector, Li Po clearly has ulterior motives for leading us here. We..."

Du Song said in a deep voice, "Do you think I don't know that? We can't afford to offend Cang Tianji."

"Although Cang Tianji hasn't done anything for the Reincarnation Division, her presence represents a certain attitude."

"The art of fate calculation is led by Cang Tianji. Her attitude can directly influence 90% of the fate masters."

"Last time, when Cang Tianji resigned from the Reincarnation Division, all the fate masters in the Heavenly Fate Hall actually resigned as well. We can't afford that price."

Du Song clenched his fists tightly. "If it hadn't been for Cang Tianji's voice transmission just now, do you think I would have believed Li Po's nonsense?"

"To have to cover up for a fool-like storyteller in front of so many disciples is simply a humiliation."

Du Song gritted his teeth. "I must wash away today's humiliation with Li Po's blood."

Seeing this, I couldn't help but sneer, "Who did the Reincarnation Division learn its face-saving, substance-losing behavior from?"

If I had been given a little more time, I was confident that I could have deceived Du Song.

However, before I could turn lies into truth, Cang Tianji arrived, and in his view, the process of covering up for me must have been extremely awkward.

At this moment, the slightly younger Lu Jiantong said with a frosty expression, "Can't we just replace Cang Tianji?"

"Be careful what you say!" Wen Yile quickly stopped him. "If you harbor murderous thoughts towards Cang Tianji, she will definitely sense it. Be careful..."

Lu Jiantong snorted coldly and stopped talking.

Du Song sighed, "How easy do you think it is to replace Cang Tianji? Half-Ming doesn't appear, Tianji is number one."

"The Chief personally visited Seventh Water Blue, one of the Three Heroes of Half-Fate, back then, but was not only humiliated in person but also lost three Supreme Protectors."

"If it hadn't been for the fact that the Chief was involved in even greater heavenly numbers, even he wouldn't have been able to return."

"Forget it, let's not talk about this."

Du Song scratched his head and looked at Wen Yile. "Hall Master Wen, you've had many contacts with the Two Worlds Hall. What do you think Li Po is up to?"

Wen Yile said, "Li Po seems like a reckless man, but he's actually extremely cunning."

"He knows very well that he's no match for us, so he must rely on external forces to contend with us."

"This village must be hiding some kind of danger."

"Li Po's intrusion into the village is a 'put himself in a desperate situation' tactic."

"He is using himself as bait to lure us into the trap. Then, he will use us to resolve the crisis in Qingyan Village. Or..."

Wen Yile paused and said, "Or perhaps he wants to cooperate with us. To break Qingyan Village together."

Lu Jiantong sneered. "Cooperate with the Reincarnation Division? He's not worthy."

Du Song asked with a frosty expression, "Hall Master Wen, what do you think about Li Po's matter?"

Wen Yile was silent for a moment before cautiously saying, "Cooperation!"

Before Wen Yile could finish speaking, Lu Jiantong said furiously, "Wen Yile, do you know what you're saying?"

"Are you trying to collude with the enemy?"

Wen Yile replied calmly, "I almost died in the Two Worlds Hall. If you're talking about 'colluding with the enemy,' I'm probably qualified to be called a dead spy, right?"

"Who knows..." Lu Jiantong had only said three words when Du Song forcibly interrupted him. "Enough, Hall Master Wen's loyalty has been affirmed by the Chief. His loyalty to the Reincarnation Division is beyond doubt. I don't want to hear similar words again in the future."

Lu Jiantong closed his mouth with a slightly dissatisfied expression.

Du Song said, "Since Cang Tianji said that the third watch tonight is the opportunity to leave Qingyan Village, it won't be false. When the third watch comes, we will surround Li Po in the name of protecting Cang Tianji and take them away from Qingyan Village."

Cai Wenyan, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly said, "Elder, I always feel that Cang Tianji's arrival is a bit strange. Do you think she might... might be in cahoots with Li Po?"

Du Song shook his head and said, "Impossible! Cang Tianji is a fate master, and in the eyes of fate masters, there is only submission and transaction."

"Cang Tianji has already submitted to Dong Apang, so she won't wholeheartedly help Li Po anymore. As for transactions..."

Du Song sneered and said, "Ten Two Worlds Halls don't have the strength to hire Cang Tianji. Our Reincarnation Division only gave Cang Tianji the title of a consultant, and we have to pay a huge amount of resources."

"Does Li Po have the strength to make Cang Tianji risk her life?"

Du Song paused and said, "I think Cang Tianji's arrival might be just like what she said, to settle the karma between her and the Two Worlds Hall."

"Fate masters never lie, Cang Tianji won't deceive us, you guys go down and prepare!"

When Du Song was speaking, I saw Wen Yile's eyes flicker, as if he had something to say, but he swallowed it back.

After the four of them dispersed, the water on the table began to flow towards the edge of the table, trickling down to the ground.

I looked at Cang Tianji with a smile that was not a smile. "You really never lie?"

"Never!" Cang Tianji said, "But, I can only say half the truth."

Sometimes, saying half the truth and letting people understand it themselves is even more deceptive than lying. How did I get the feeling that Cang Tianji's ability to deceive people is comparable to that of Old Liu!
