306 Ye Xuan’s Analysis

It was not impossible.

Mo Jianming was the most powerful combat force of the Sword Sect. If they could get rid of this great threat, it would greatly weaken the power of the Sword Sect, and it would only be more beneficial to them.

Moreover, these major sects had always wanted to deal with Mo Jianming, but they had been unable to do so because he was too strong.

After all, a slight change would affect the whole situation. Moreover, Mo Jianming wasn’t someone they could deal with just because they wanted to. They would have to make careful arrangements. However, if they had this opportunity, they would definitely not let it go.

“It’s possible, but it might not be the case.”

He Jiantian pondered for a moment before he said, “Although they have always regarded Elder Mo as a thorn in their side, based on Elder Mo’s cultivation, it will not be easy to deal with him. I’m afraid they will have to pay a high price for it.”

These sects were all very shrewd. They would not make a loss-making deal. It was not worth it to lose their own people for Mo Jianming. Moreover, their conflict had not reached the point of a life-and-death struggle.

“Moreover, I’ve sent people to inquire about the movements of these sects, but there are no unusual movements. If they really did make a move, it shouldn’t be so calm.”

The Misty Illusory Manor and the Infinity Sect didn’t seem like ones who would sit still and be content with their gains. If they had really succeeded, trouble would have come looking for them long ago.

“If they didn’t do it, then who did it?”

Other than these people, Shen Changling couldn’t think of any other sect that had such strength.

“You said that Elder Mo went missing while investigating something.” Ye Xuan suddenly asked, “What was he investigating?”

He Jiantian shook his head and replied, “I don’t know the details. Elder Mo just mentioned he was going to investigate something.”

Ye Xuan felt that there was more to this than meets the eye. Perhaps Mo Jianming’s disappearance was related to this so-called ‘investigation’.

But no matter what, at least Mo Jianming’s life wasn’t in danger now, which could be considered good news. Moreover, with Mo Jianming’s strength, if the enemy really wanted him to die, they would have to pay a great price.

“Elder Mo might currently be trapped in some place. If we find a way to contact him, we can save him.”

Ye Xuan was more inclined to believe that Mo Jianming was trapped and temporarily unable to ask for help from the outside world.

Shen Changling’s face looked much better after hearing his words.

“By the way, sect leader, we’ve discovered something after returning from Changping.”

Since Mo Jianming was not there for the time being, Shen Changling told He Jiantian about the altar, but he omitted some things related to Ye Xuan in the process.

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust He Jiantian, but Ye Xuan rarely came into contact with He Jiantian. Besides, Ye Xuan would not want others to know too much about his private matters either.

He Jiantian’s expression turned serious. He asked, “Are you serious? That altar is really strange. Even the great demons were suppressed.”

Things that happened a thousand years ago were no small matter. According to Shen Changling, there were still people out there who wanted to use this power to resurrect and come back to the world. What a heaven-defying move.

Just by listening to Shen Changling’s descriptions, He Jiantian knew that the high priest’s methods were evil and he was definitely not a good person. If the ‘Master’ he spoke of really appeared in the world, it would be a great disaster.

“I don’t dare to lie about this!”

He Jiantian was well aware of Shen Changling’s character. Although he did not teach Shen Changling personally, he had watched him grow up. Shen Changling would not lie about such things.

“Before you left, Elder Mo also mentioned this to me. He said that you followed Elder Ye to gain experience. I didn’t expect that there would be so many twists and turns in this matter, and it even involved things from a thousand years ago.”

He Jiantina furrowed his brows slightly and said, “It looks like troubled times have come. First, Elder Mo went missing, and now this has happened. It looks like Jingdu will not be at peace again.”

He Jiantian and Ye Xuan didn’t know each other very well, but he knew that Ye Xuan had a good relationship with Mo Jianming. Otherwise, Mo Jianming wouldn’t have taken the risk of offending several major sects to help Ye Xuan. Therefore, he had a good impression of Ye Xuan.

“I have to thank you, Elder Ye. The altar has already been destroyed, so at least it won’t cause any more trouble. Otherwise, who knows how many more problems would arise from it.”

“Sect Master He, you’re too kind. This is also my duty. It’s my duty to exterminate demons and protect the Dao. If they really appear in the world, people will definitely be plunged into misery and suffering.”

Ye Xuan’s humble words won He Jiantian’s favor, and he secretly praised Ye Xuan inwardly. He thought, ‘No wonder Mo Jianming admires him.’

“However, I am by myself so I only have my own strength to rely on. Although the altar has been destroyed, I can’t be sure that there will be other things. The Sword Sect is powerful and has a deep foundation. I hope you can pay more attention to this matter, Sect Master He.”

He Jiantian understood what Ye Xuan meant, and he couldn’t help but look up to Ye Xuan. “I didn’t expect you to think of this at such a young age.”

The scheme a thousand years ago was huge, but this time, it was a fluke that Ye Xuan saw through it. Who knew if there were any other tricks up their sleeves? After all, this force behind the scenes wanted to plot against the world, so the scope they involved was definitely not limited to the altar.

Maybe there were people like the high priest, but the time was not right and they didn’t want to reveal themselves. The world was big and they were in the dark. It would be difficult for the Sword Sect to find them all.

Moreover, their sect had many things to deal with. On top of all this, there was the matter in Jingdu as well. Thinking about this, He Jiantian’s head hurt a little, and the wrinkles between his brows deepened.

“I understand what you mean. I will pay more attention to it. If it is really as you say, I’m afraid that my Sword Sect alone will not be enough. The other sects will also need to know about this so that they can better prepare for the future.”

Ye Xuan had a different view.

“Now, the major sects are harmonious on the surface but not on the inside. If they know about this, they might want to make a big deal out of it and fish in troubled waters. I’m afraid it will be troublesome for the follow-up investigation.”

Ye Xuan’s worry was not without reason. The other major sects might not be able to find any clues when the time came, and they might even interfere for their own interests. At that time, the situation would become even more chaotic, and the gains would not make up for the losses.
