Chapter 528: Trap
Tianyi shook his head and said. “Not him”
In the past few years, his subordinates had brought him many people that once entered the Bodhi Tree, but Tianyi could feel that none of them had a connection to the divine tree. Eventually, the number of times his subordinates delivered the people to him diminished.
Although Tianyi didn’t know the exact number of people that entered the Bodhi Tree, he could still remember a few of them, especially Mo Ling. Till now, his subordinates had not caught the native.
“Hm?” Tianyi turned his head when he saw his subordinate bringing him another person. He recognized the person in the venerable’s arms. She was Xuan Queling, the woman who accompanied Mo Ling. However, he was more surprised to see Mo Ling’s other woman following behind the sky venerable obediently.
“You’re one of the Emperor Hall’s agents?” Tianyi asked.
“Emperor Nine Heavens’ eyes are keen,” the sky venerable praised. “Chou Nu is the person we placed next to Mo Ling following your orders those years ago. It was thanks to her that we could locate Mo Ling. Unfortunately, his power exceeded our expectations. He killed an earth venerable and tens of imperial protectors.”
Tianyi nodded. “From now on, whenever you make a plan against Mo Ling, increase the amount of force by ten times whatever you estimated.”
The sky venerable was confused. Although Mo Ling was powerful, there should be no need to be so wary against a yokel, right? Next to him, Chou Nu’s expression paled. Although she was on the side of Emperor Hall, Mo Ling held a special place in her heart.
The changes in her expression were caught by Tianyi and the sky venerable. The sky venerable frowned, but he didn’t rebuke her. At least, not right now. He motioned toward the woman in his grasp. “Emperor, is this woman the one you are searching for?”
