Before leaving the Crescent Country, Wu Chijin still had a few things to tell them. He had calculated that the Ruler had to accompany the young masters of the other countries to drink tea at this time every day. If he went to look for Nian Yongjun now, he wouldn't run into the Ruler, so it wouldn't be considered going against the Ruler's words.
Wu Chijin silently came to Nian Yongjun's roof and flicked the tiles on the roof with his fingers. This was the secret signal he had agreed with Nian Yongjun.
Nian Yongjun immediately ran out of the house when he heard the secret signal. He jumped onto the roof and held Wu Chijin's hand excitedly. They sat on the roof side by side as if they were children.
"Why are you back? Has the matter that the country ruler requested been settled?" Nian Yongjun asked anxiously.
"If you don't come back, where will you go?" The Crimson Vajra did not know where to start. He thought Nian Yongjun would ask him where he had been all this time, but he was concerned about this question.
"Then is the matter that the country's ruler asked you to do settled?”Nian Yongjun asked.
Wu Chijin still couldn't answer this question. If he could, he wouldn't be meeting Nian Yongjun, but the welfare student. Therefore, Wu Chijin could only respond like this,"What can I do by myself if the country ruler can't even do it even if he gave 5,000 Crescent Army soldiers to Pavilion Master Le?"”
"That's true. Where have you been for the past three months? There was no news at all. I secretly sent a few groups of people out of the city to support you, but they were always blocked by the Black Sea seal outside.”At this moment, Nian Yongjun asked the question that Wu Chijin had thought he would ask. He continued," The King was just saying that in a fit of anger. He doesn't have that intention. You're cousins and fellow disciples. Now, you're his right-hand man. He was just anxious and said something serious. Don't take it to heart. I'll accompany you to talk to the King later."”
"You're not joking. It doesn't matter if he's anxious or if he wants to establish his authority, but I have to abide by the rules. Otherwise, how can the country's ruler control all officials in the future? Unless I resign and use my identity as a cousin to argue with him, otherwise, the division between the monarch and his subjects will be there.”Wu Chijin said helplessly.
"That's true. Alright, let's put that aside for now. Tell me where you've been during this period of time. Where's Pavilion Master Le? The country ruler couldn't wait for Pavilion Master Le to come back to protect him, so he kept nagging. However, that was also what annoyed the crown princes. They panicked when they didn't see the Crescent Army, and they kept asking Pavilion Master Le when she would come back.”
Wu Chijin didn't know where to start. However, he didn't have time to talk to Nian Yongjun in detail, so he could only tell him the important thing first." The Crescent Army is currently stationed in the Baishou Country. They didn't suffer much damage, but they still have their confidence. In addition, Military Advisor Mao Ming had persuaded several countries to send troops to help defend the Crescent Country. The time would be at the beginning of next month. As long as the country protection seal is not broken, we will be able to resolve the crisis very quickly.”
"Early next month?" Nian Yongjun asked in surprise.
"Yes, I am. Vice General Du Jing told me this personally.”
"Early next month?" Nian Yongjun repeated these words again and asked,"Who will lead the coalition army?"”
Nian Yongjun's question made Wu Chijin suddenly realize something, so he replied," Of course it's Pavilion Master Le. Who else can lead the alliance army besides him?"”
"Pavilion Master Le is leading the army? Is this what Du Jing said?" Nian Yongjun asked in confusion.
"Then who else can say? If the Myriad Mountains Kingdoms are not under the command of the Crescent Country, who else can they be ruled by?”Wu Chijin said matter-of-factly.
"That's true. You're right." Nian Yongjun then asked,"What are you going to do down the mountain?" I'll help you talk to the country ruler and ask you to return to the Crescent Country as soon as possible.”
"I still have to figure out the enemy's background. The current blind method of fighting can only cure a small problem, but it can't solve the fundamental problem.”
"Do you have any clues now?" Nian Yongjun asked.
"It's hard to say. The other party is hiding very well. Wherever I go during this period of time, the clues will be cut off.”Wu Chijin paused for a moment before continuing,"However, I have my own ways. Don't think that this will be difficult for me. I've already grabbed their tails. Just give me a little more time."”
"Are you confident?" Nian Yongjun asked doubtfully.
"The Shu Li Pavilion has spies not only in the various countries in the mountains, but also in the Crescent Country, Crescent Mountain, and the various countries in the rivers. Unless they are sent by the heavenly troops and generals, how can they escape my eyes?”Wu Chijin said half-jokingly.
"Of course, who doesn't know that you're the number one sage of the ten thousand mountains.”Nian Yongjun continued," If you go down the mountain again, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back for a while. I'll help take care of the Qingfeng Study. Although it'll be safe with the Spirit Snake Mountain Master guarding it, I can still help with some daily necessities."”
"How could Master come and help me look after the house? It's rare for him to go down the mountain, so he has to see through the entire Crescent Country. Even the Black Sea and Black Mountain outside are sealed. It's as if he's walking through the alleys and doors many times. Otherwise, how could I go down the mountain and go up the mountain as I please?”
Nian Yongjun looked at Wu Chijin doubtfully and said,"Has the Mountain Master of Spirit Snake Mountain been traveling with you all this time?"”
"How can I? Although Master has gone up and down a few times, most of the time, he still stays in the Crescent Country. After all, Master promised me to help look after the country's ruler.
Alright, I have to leave now. I'll leave the mountain before dark. Everything in the city will depend on Pavilion Master Nian.”Wu Chijin stood up and prepared to leave.
"When will you be back next time?" Nian Yongjun stood up and asked.”
"It's hard to say. The situation changes rapidly, and it's not up to you. See you later." Wu Chijin turned around and left after saying that.
Looking at Wu Chijin's back as he left, Nian Yongjun carefully mulled over the question and answer between the two of them. He did not know where the problem had been. He carefully thought about how Wu Chijin had seen through his weakness.
However, he was more conflicted about whether he should attack Wu Chijin now. At this moment, Wu Chijin's back was full of flaws, but he was not confident because the person in front of him was Wu Chijin. He had a hundred ways to deal with his sniper. If he failed, he also had a hundred ways to retaliate. Moreover, there was also the peerless expert, Spirit Snake Mountain Master. He could appear anywhere in Yuaya Country, including behind him now.
Wu Chijin, who was leaving, walked quickly without looking back. He was facing a life and death situation. He expected Nian Yongjun to be in a dilemma about whether to attack him or not. This was a moment that he had exchanged for decades of shrewdness. He bet that Nian Yongjun would not be willing to take this gamble because Nian Yongjun had the upper hand. The winner would not choose to bet on luck.
He had just realized that Nian Yongjun was the mole. Although he was only 50% sure, his intuition had never been wrong. Moreover, he could not afford to make such a mistake. After all, this person currently held the power of life and death in the entire Crescent Country.
Wu Chijin's figure quickly left Nian Yongjun's sight. Nian Yongjun regretted not making a move just now. Even if he was only 50% confident, he shouldn't have been so overcautious since he had chosen this path, because Wu Chijin wouldn't let him be so defenseless behind his back again.
However, Nian Yongjun was not worried that Wu Chijin would expose him. He was confident that up until now, it was still flawless. Wu Chijin did not have any evidence to testify against him. Everything was just Wu Chijin's intuition. It was impossible to shake his position in front of the welfare students with just the Heart Executioner.
Wu Chijin only had a very short period of time to leave the Crescent Country. He didn't know how deeply the entire Crescent Country had been infiltrated. If Nian Yongjun could be a mole, who else could escape suspicion? If he collapsed now, he would definitely be branded as a spy, and no one would suspect Nian Yongjun anymore.
Since he had already begun to suspect Nian Yongjun, he had to complete two other things before he left. The first was to warn You Tianlang that Wu Chijin had left the words " White Crane Flying South " in the study room of the Shuli Pavilion. This was a code word between Wu Chijin and You Tianlang. The White Crane referred to Nian Yongjun, while the word "
The second thing was to hide the entrance of the Clear Breeze Study. Although only a few trusted aides in the Crescent Country knew about it, and even though the master of Spirit Snake Mountain was in charge of the study, they had to ensure that Shui Yingyue and Luo Xiaoyuan's future was safe. The only way was to completely hide the entrance of the Clear Breeze Study and make it disappear from everyone's sight.
After he left, he did not know when he would return to his homeland. Wu Chijin was worried about the king, his master, Shui Yingyue, and Luo Xiaoyuan. However, he had to go to the battlefield now. Only there could he preserve the last breath of the Crescent Country.
