Translator XiaoBai: This is a really long chapter so enjoy :)

The sudden shift in events made Zhang Yiyi's heart sink even further.

She carefully concealed her presence, not daring to let herself be discovered. The way things were going was clearly off—Fang Chun had lied to her!

Not only had he lied, but the elaborate deception had clearly been crafted specifically for her.

Fortunately, her ancient jade concealed her aura, and from the start, she had been extremely cautious. As a result, when the other party's divine sense swept over, they didn't detect her.

"N-Ninth Master, please forgive me. That female cultivator is far too cunning and ruthless. She was completely unaffected by me and didn't care about the lives of others in the slightest," Fang Chun hurriedly defended himself, pushing all the blame onto Zhang Yiyi. "Also, I think... maybe she really isn't someone sent by Yunxian Sect."

"Useless trash!"

The man struck Fang Chun with a palm, sending him flying, not even bothering to listen to his excuses.

That blow was no light strike, nearly costing Fang Chun his life. It was clear the man didn't consider Fang Chun worth anything.

However, despite this, the Ninth Master ultimately spared Fang Chun's life.

Fang Chun, who had been trembling in fear, finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing his life had been temporarily spared.

"Thank you, Ninth Master, for sparing me. Thank you!"

At this moment, Fang Chun was like a completely tamed dog. The more he was beaten, the more respectful and grateful he became.

His servile attitude seemed to please the other man, and he did not strike him again.

"Whether or not she's from Yunxian Sect doesn't really matter. In any case, she cannot be allowed to live!"

Ninth Master didn't seem particularly concerned about the issue. Glaring at Fang Chun, he scolded, "Today's perfect opportunity was wasted by you! If we want to act again without involving the City Lord's manor, it will take more effort. Trash like you should've been thrown into the Blood Pool with your two fellow disciples already!"

"Ninth Master, please spare me! I still have my uses, I still have value! If she really was sent by the Yunxian Sect, it means the sect is already investigating why my two fellow disciples and I have gone missing. To prevent the Yunxian Sect from interfering and ruining the Patriarch's grand plans, you must keep me alive for future needs!"

Terrified of ending up like his two fellow disciples, Fang Chun desperately clung to his last bit of usefulness.

"Shut up! If I hadn't already considered that, do you think trash like you would still be alive right now?"

Ninth Master held deep contempt for people like Fang Chun, who were greedy for life and afraid of death. No wonder the so-called righteous sects were declining by the day—just look at the kind of useless disciples they were recruiting. Even a servant had more backbone.

Fang Chun, of course, didn't dare make another sound. He nervously stood up and moved to the side, doing his best to minimize his presence, terrified that Ninth Master might find another reason to pick on him.

"Once you go in, report everything you said to that female cultivator in detail. Don't leave out a single word, including her facial expressions and reactions!"
