"Elder Bai, please take a look at them..."

Mu Jinyu saw Bai Xiaosheng rushing over, and without wasting words, directly asked him to check on Xia Ruochen and the others, and then help calculate the Secret Heavenly Calculation to see if it could reveal any direction.

"Hmm?! Unusual Demonic Qi..."

Upon seeing the state of the people in the secret chamber, Bai Xiaosheng, although his expression couldn't be discerned due to the blurred figures, felt the gravity of the situation through his tone.

These were all top members of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, implicated in numerous matters.

"Alright."

Without hesitation, Bai Xiaosheng began to calculate the causality on them, hoping to uncover the mastermind behind it all.

But after a while.

Bai Xiaosheng's body shook, and with a somewhat horrified tone, said, "I can't discern it, it's still the same as last time."

Last time, after Mu Jinyu inquired about Sheng Rulai, he had also attempted to deduce but found nothing, assuming it was just an accident and thought little of it.

But now, witnessing Xia Ruochen and the others' state, he still couldn't deduce the mastermind behind it, could it all be due to another accident?

Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself, not to mention Mu Jinyu would not believe it, even he himself didn't believe this conclusion.

"This..."

Bai Xiaosheng spoke hesitatingly, unsure what he was thinking, then said to Mu Jinyu: "Dragon Master, you should perform a Soul Search on them first, to see if any points connect, and if they've come into contact with anyone..."

"Alright."

Mu Jinyu glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, though his tone was shocked and he hadn't deduced the mastermind, Mu Jinyu felt that he seemed to have some conjectures but didn't voice them because he wasn't certain.

Subsequently, Mu Jinyu calmed down, realizing that he couldn't always rely on Secret Heavenly Calculation.

Would he really do nothing if the Secret Heavenly Calculation failed, and act like a headless fly?

Shaking his head slightly, Mu Jinyu instructed Xilin to follow him and then stepped into the secret chamber.

"Roar!!"

Xia Ruochen and the others, like mindless zombies, were originally restrained by restrictions, eager to riot upon seeing Mu Jinyu and the others but unable to move. As Mu Jinyu presented himself, they let out an excited roar, lunging toward him!

"Bang bang!!"

Mu Jinyu, as if performing a Buddha's Shadowless Kick, moved so fast his footwork was a blur. Dozens of them who charged were all kicked backward, their necks snapped, rendering them completely paralyzed and unable to move.

Mu Jinyu approached, raised his hand to press on Xia Ruochen's head, and began executing the Soul Searching Technique on him.

Although Xia Ruochen now seemed muddled, resembling a zombie, he hadn't truly lost his mind. His brain was intact, or else Sheng Rulai, when the Demonic Qi invaded later on, could never have been rescued later. Therefore, Mu Jinyu's soul search was still effective on them.

Soon, Mu Jinyu finished the soul search on Xia Ruochen but found no suspicious characters.

Frowning slightly, Mu Jinyu didn't immediately purge the Demonic Qi from Xia Ruochen's body and continued to perform soul searches on the next person.

About half an hour later.

Mu Jinyu had finished soul searching the entire group of Great Xia Dragon Sparrow's tops.

Unfortunately, he found no clues amongst them.

They didn't even know what they had come into contact with that led to their Demonic Qi corruption.

"How is it? Did the Dragon Master discover anything?"

After Mu Jinyu completed the soul searches, Bai Xiaosheng inquired.

"No, I can't see any abnormalities..."

Mu Jinyu turned his head to Bai Xiaosheng, shaking his head slightly.

Then, he began to release the restraints on the Three-Leaf Youlian.

In an instant, the Three-Leaf Youlian extended invisible vines from within Mu Jinyu, reaching into the Sea of Consciousness of Xia Ruochen and the others, voraciously devouring their internal Demonic Qi!

"Ah!!"

Xia Ruochen and the others couldn't help but cry out in pain at first, but soon went silent.

Not long after.

The black aura dissipated from their bodies, and their blood red eyes returned to normal.

"Uh..."

"It hurts..."

"Why can't I get up..."

At this point, they gradually regained consciousness, their eyes filled with confusion and helplessness, struggling to get up but felt severe pain all over, unable to rise.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!"

Mu Jinyu gently raised his hand, sending strands of Life Source Energy to restore their snapped necks, which relieved their pain.

"Phew..."

"Whew... ah..."

They breathed heavily, feeling no more pain, and with effort, finally stood up from the ground.

Then, Xia Ruochen noticed Mu Jinyu.

"Dragon Master, why are you here?"

Seeing Mu Jinyu, Xia Ruochen's eyes widened in surprise, then he laughed and asked.

Mu Jinyu frowned slightly, then relaxed and asked, "Do you not remember anything?"

Xia Ruochen was taken aback, puzzled, and asked, "What happened? Did something occur?"

Mu Jinyu didn't immediately answer his question, letting him think it over himself.

After asking, Xia Ruochen sensed something was off, his brows furrowed as he looked at the poorly ventilated secret chamber!

"Isn't this the secret chamber? Why are we here..."

Quickly reacting, Xia Ruochen recalled his memory before losing control, his expression filled with panic and confusion, saying, "I remember, wasn't I in a meeting with the Elders? Then... it seemed..."

He vaguely recalled that just before his loss of control, he seemed ready to attack the Elder?

What happened?

How did he become like that?!

Is this still him?!

Xia Ruochen swiftly raised his head to look at Mu Jinyu, his expression a mix of panic and hope.

Mu Jinyu shook his head and said, "It's alright now. I've eliminated the Demonic Qi from your body; you won't lose control without reason anymore."

Xilin stood aside, her wine-red eyes had been fixed on Mu Jinyu ever since he commanded the Three-Leaf Youlian to devour the Demonic Qi from the group.

Due to her Cultivation and Divine Sense being sealed, she couldn't sense deeply, but she could feel a peculiar wave had emerged to dissolve the Demonic Qi in the group.

No!

Not dissolved, more like devoured?

What's going on?

Does this guy have some creature hidden inside him?

Xilin frowned deeply in thought, wishing she could restore her Cultivation instantly, then subdue Mu Shao'ai when he's absent, dissect him to find out!

Hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Xia Ruochen, though unsure about the truth, still breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng, who had been silent and deep in thought, suddenly spoke up:

"Dragon Master, I think I might have figured out what's going on!"

Upon hearing Bai Xiaosheng, Mu Jinyu immediately turned around, watching him intently, saying, "What is it?"

Silently thinking to himself, as expected, in situations where the Heavenly Mechanism is obscured, finding others may not yield results, but Elder Bai might just know some clues.

Bai Xiaosheng sighed softly, his tone carrying a sense of helplessness and reminiscence, saying, "The mastermind behind this incident might very well be a senior brother of mine..."
