Can I Really Change Things? (ON HOLD)

Chapter 35

'Okay, so I'll put one here, and then another one over here. I should hurry up though, Shen Ming and Ling Wan should be back soon. I'm glad I know this route, at the very least, anyway.'

Place her talismans all over the place while quietly humming along to the pink panther theme, she found herself in front of a large door that didn't look like it belonged to an ordinary room.

Taking a huge risk, she slowly opened the door and found herself in a large office littered the scrap pieces of paper and blank talismans.

'I've hit the jackpot. ' 

Looking through the papers, she mainly just found useless things, however one thing caught her eye.

"This... But this is. How?" She quietly gasped.

In her hands were the defence maps of Cloud Recesses. It had everything, from its layout to its former weak points. Emphasis on the word 'former'. Ever since she had updated the wards and their defences, these papers were now basically useless, which they had probably figured out already, as something that important wouldn't just be lying around like this.   

'Who gave them this information? As far as I'm concerned, the Lans have airtight security. This information is fairly outdated, so it can't have been from before I became a sect leader. But the main question is who? The Lans are known for their moral integrity, but could it have been an outer disciple? Maybe, they sent in spies to extract information?'

Burning the layout plans with her spiritual energy, she kept rummaging around, hoping to find any information pertaining to the mole inside the Lan Sect. 

'No, no, no! There's nothing in here that can help me! I should just leave; I've done enough for one day anyway.' 

About to open the door to rush back to her room, she froze when she heard footsteps from outside the door. 

Panicking she ran over to a large screen and hid behind it, not even daring to breath as she heard the door open.

TaiFeng managed to make out the silhouettes of seven Wens, one of them was the silhouette of a woman who she couldn't recognize.

Going over to the messy table, the woman rummaged through the papers, finding what she was looking for, she spoke.

"I've got what I was looking for, you can all leave now." She spoke in an assertive tone. 

It was Wen Qing!

As the Wen disciples slowly left the room, Wen Qing pinched the bridge of her nose in frustration. 

"Psst, Qing-jie." TaiFeng whisper yelled.                                                                                                                "I'm over here, behind the screen."

"...TaiFeng?!" She said, rushing over behind the screen.
