Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 3572
One after another, seven figures walked into the house and looked at Lankesh in front of them with a complicated expression.
Upon seeing this group of people, Lankesh couldn't stop his expression from undergoing an immense change. "Charleuse, it's you folks. How could this..."
Then, he saw Jenan in the crowd and was taken aback. He quickly looked at the figure in front of him and asked, "Why are there two Jenans? What's going on? This-" As Lankesh spoke, the face of the figure in front of him began to change and finally, it returned to a young man's face.
When he saw this face, he immediately placed the man. "It's you-Fade Chen!"
Walking up to Charleuse, Fade remarked, "I'll leave the rest to you, Charleuse." Charleuse nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you so much, Young Master Chen." Fade gently waved his hand and did not say anything more.
The way to find the mole had been decided by him, Charleuse, and Jenan after discussion.
Fade had utilized the Six Arts Book that he'd received from Haykal. He'd chosen a blank page of the skill of "Appearance Transformation" and changed his appearance to Jenan's. Then, with this face on his head, Fade had gone to test the elders one by one.
Because the function of the Appearance Transformation was much better than the ordinary face disguising skill, it almost wouldn't reveal any flaws, so the effect he'd achieved was very good.
In the end, as expected, the mole turned out to be the last elder he'd tested-Lankesh Hu, otherwise known as the Seventh Elder.
The surprised expression on Lankesh's face gave way to a multitude of expressions unable to be pinpointed.
At this time, Charleuse came over and looked at Lankesh. He sighed softly and said,
"Lankesh, you tell me what's going on."
After a moment of silence, Lankesh lowered his head and said nothing.
Charleuse let out a long sigh and continued, "We have worked together for many years, after all. I don't want to execute any coercive means, so—"
Lankesh's body trembled as he raised his head and spoke slowly.
In fact, the whole thing was very simple.
After Skyle appeared, Charleuse decided to gather the power of the whole clan to help Skyle break through to the Fetus Refine Realm. Therefore, most of the cultivation resources in Sun-Moon City were harnessed for Skyle. Charleuse even took the lead to take out his cultivation resources and use them on Skyle.
In this way, the other elders also donated their cultivation resources. As the seventh elder, Lankesh naturally had to follow suit.
However, while on the surface he donated resources, he was very unwilling in his heart.
He recalled that when he was young, he'd also been a genius of Sun-Moon City. He had once thought of breaking through to the Fetus Refine Realm but had failed all three times. Therefore, the higher-ups of Sun-Moon City at that time had made him give up the idea of breaking through. They had reduced the amount of resources he had and had transferred them to other younger geniuses.
Although Lankesh had not said anything at that time, he had always been holding a grudge. He thought that his talent was very high. If he continued to have enough cultivation resources, he might be able to break through to the Fetus Refine Realm. It was just that the senior officials of Sun-Moon City had not had faith in him at that time, so he'd lost this opportunity.
This kind of resentment had been buried in his heart for nearly a hundred years. Until now, it had become a sealed balloon. All kinds of negative emotions had been accumulated in it, constantly brewing and expanding.
When Skyle showed up, supported by
Charleuse and the others, this kind of strong contrast cast Lankesh's mind back to what had happened to him that year. The anger in his heart turned into jealousy, wrath, and even hatred, which made his
O`
heart-balloon become bigger and
bigger.
In the end, his experience in Wasteland became a needle that pierced through the balloon in his heart and caused all the negative emotions that he had accumulated over the years to burst out. Therefore, after having received all kinds of promises from Wasteland's Evorald Chai, Lankesh had decided to betray Sun- Moon City and become Evorald's pawn to pass on all the secrets of the city. This time, he was the one who leaked the news of Skyle using the Sun-Moon Sword to prepare for the Fetus Refine Realm to the governor of Wasteland, Evorald. This led to the so-called inspection from Evorald.
As for Jenan's attack, it was naturally thanks to the information revealed by Lankesh that they had sent a hitman from Wasteland.
All of this was for the sake of suppressing Sun-Moon City. They would never allow the Chinese of Sun- Moon City to have a Fetus Refine Realm expert.
After listening to him, the elders looked at Lankesh and lapsed into momentary silence.
In the end, Charleuse let out a long sigh and said, "Lankesh, I still couldn't wrap my head around why you did this. This is a big event for the rise of the Chinese, but you-"
Since he had confessed everything, Lankesh had no scruples left. Without hiding anything, he directly interrupted Charleuse's words. "What does the rise of the Chinese have to do with me?"
"All I know is that this damn place is far inferior to the Wasteland, much less the other major cities of the Great Hsia Domain. I've trained hard for so many years, and I only want to live a good life. Is there anything wrong with that?" Charleuse said bitterly, "Lankesh, everyone prays for a good life, but you can't do this!
Besides, the reason why we do this is to let the whole of Chinese live a good life in the future, is it not?"
"Ha, future! How many years has it been, huh, First Elder? Do you really think the future that you speak of will come? Do you believe it yourself?" Lankesh gave a cold laugh.
On the other side, the Third Elder, Thasheel, who had a bad temper, was furious and came over directly "Lankesh, aren't you trying to cover up your selfishness by rattling off so many excuses? There's nothing to talk about." "Even if I'm selfish, so what? Is there anything wrong with being considerate of myself?"
Lankesh defended himself.
Thasheel said coldly, "If you relied on betraying your comrades to live a good life, then that makes you a bona fide traitor."
"So what if I'm a traitor? As long as I live a good life, to hell with reputation!" Lankesh said.
"You-" The bad-tempered Thasheel was so angry that he wanted to hit him.
At this moment, First Elder Charleuse stopped him and said to Lankesh, "You may not care about your reputation, but do you really think you can live a good life in Wasteland after betraying us?"
"Uh..." Lankesh gave a thought, but
he still insisted. "Of course I can. Mr. Chai has promised me that as long as I succeed, I will be able to move to Wasteland and he'll provide me with cultivation resources to help me break through to the Fetus Refine Realm."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Sixth Elder shook his head and said with a smile, "Lankesh, you said so much just now, I thought you were a smart person. Now it seems that you are just a brainless fool."
"A useless traitor is what you are. Do you think Evorald Chai will keep you there?"
"Besides, Evorald represents the authority of the Great Hsia Domain. For so many years the authority has been sabotaging the Chinese in public and in secret, in order to prevent a Fetus Refine Realm cultivator from appearing in the clan." "In this case, do you really think that Evorald will help you break through to the realm?"
"Don't forget that even if you betray us, the blood of the Chinese still flows in your body. You are still the object of their suppression."
The Sixth Elder's words caused Lankesh to grimace. His expression immediately fell and he did not say anything for a long while.
