The next day.
Inside Lin Yun’s hut.
After a night of healing, Lin Yun had recovered most of his injuries.
Today was the Heavenly Ranking settlement day, and the rewards were settled according to the Heavenly Ranking at 23:59 last night.
The deacon sent Lin Yun 1200 spirit stones, which was the reward for 12th place.
Staying for a month 1200, if you stayed for a year that would be 14,400 spirit stones, staying for ten years that would be 144,000!
The Heavenly Ranking rewards were still very rich.
If you can rush to the top three. The rewards are still horrible.
If you wanted to rush from second stage YuanYing, to third stage YuanYing, if you relied on spirit stones, you’d have to be around 150,000 spirit stones. Lin Yun pondered.
This was an astronomical amount.
The further one went, the amount of spirit qi needed to raise a realm was a terrifying number.
That was why there were so many disciples who couldn’t mention a high enough realm in one breath.
The vast majority of the disciples of the Sacred Temple. Rushing from the second stage to the third stage all relied on going to the cultivation place every day and cultivating for a few decades, and then they would be able to afford so many spirit stones.
Only a small number of talented disciples. They were able to rely on impacting the Heavenly Ranking and winning events to obtain a large amount of spirit stones, and were able to come up with enough in just a few years or a dozen years.
Of course, even if Lin Yun had enough spirit stones right now, it wouldn’t be appropriate to immediately impact a third-stage YuanYing.
Lin Yun had just risen to the second rank YuanYing, he had to stabilise himself in this realm for a while, steadily and surely, one step at a time, if he rushed too quickly, his realm would be vapid, which would not be good for his cultivation in the future.
Just after sending the deacon away, the Grand Elder came to Lin Yun’s hut.
”Grand Elder, what brings you here.”
After Lin Yun saw the Grand Elder, he quickly got up and saluted.
I’ve come to console you, after yesterday’s incident, I didn’t see you come to complain, I’m worried that you feel that it wasn’t handled fairly enough, and that you have grievances in your heart, if you have grievances. It has to be resolved before it can be resolved. The Grand Elder said with a smile.
”Great Elder, I don’t have a grudge, I’ll embrace the ruling of the Holy Temple.” Lin Yun spoke bluntly.
”Lin Yun, I’m completely relieved that you have such a heart.” The Grand Elder nodded in satisfaction.
”Grand Elder, thank you for your concern for me as well.” Lin Yun arched his hand.
The fact that the Grand Elder was still worried about his emotions and came here specially was enough to see that the Grand Elder was very attached to Lin Yun.
I care about you because I appreciate you, cultivate well. The Grand Elder patted Lin Yun’s shoulder.
”Grand Elder, there’s one thing I’d like to enquire about… why is someone spying on me these last month or so?” Lin Yun opened his mouth to enquire.
Although the spies were careful, Lin Yun had discovered it a long time ago.
The Grand Elder’s expression became grave after hearing this question thrown out by Lin Yun.
Only after a moment of contemplation did the Grand Elder say in a serious tone:
”Ah Lin Yun, I don’t want to lie to you. I’ll be honest, there are spies in the Holy Temple.
And you, Lin Yun, just happen to possess a certain suspicion, the Holy Temple is conducting a certain degree of surveillance on you in order to investigate clearly, I hope you understand that the investigation is clear, and it’s also in order to return your innocence.
The Grand Elder knew that since Lin Yun had already realised that he was being watched, there was no point in hiding it.
If he concealed it, it would only aggravate the gap between the sanctuary and Lin Yun.
Do you suspect me? Because of the Vice Temple Master, Elder Xiong and the others, going to attack the Shadow Sect? Lin Yun frowned.
”That’s right, the news of the attack on the Shadow Sect was leaked, and that’s what caused the casualties in the Holy Palace to be that heavy. This matter was known only to the elders and you, so you and the elders, were the ones under suspicion. The Grand Elder told the truth.
”So that’s how it is.” Lin Yun nodded indistinctly.
He was one of the few people who knew about it and suspected himself. It was reasonable.
Moreover, when Lin Yun thought about it carefully, since only he and the elders knew about it.
Then his own suspicion, was bound to be the greatest ah, because the trustworthiness of the elders was definitely much higher than his own.
If Lin Yun was the hall master, Lin Yun would have suspected the same thing.
It can’t be helped, I hope you understand. The Grand Elder was afraid that Lin Yun would become resistant.
Don’t worry, Grand Elder, since we’ve all talked it out. Then it will be fine, I also hope that you can investigate, investigate clearly in order to return my Lin Yun innocence. Lin Yun said.
It’s just an investigation, it’s not like he’s taking any other actions, Lin Yun isn’t resistant yet.
After a pause, Lin Yun continued: great elder, can you trust me?
I naturally trust you, and after our initial investigation. I’ve already lifted the suspicion on you temporarily, but of course I haven’t completely ruled it out, because until the truth comes out, it’s impossible for everyone who knows about the mission to completely rule out the suspicion. The great elder said.
This spy, who could it be? Lin Yun’s gaze was slightly condensed.
Lin Yun himself certainly knew best that he wasn’t a spy.
This spy, then, was bound to be among the four elders!
First Elder, Second Elder, Third Elder, Fourth Elder ……
Lin Yun pondered over these four.
The Grand Elder? Lin Yun didn’t think it was possible, Lin Yun thought that the Grand Elder was a very good person.
Third Elder and Fourth Elder, Lin Yun didn’t have much of an impression of them, but he felt that they were also good people.
As for the Second Elder, Lin Yun naturally had a bad impression of him.
Of these four, who would it be?
”Lin Yun, at the moment, your greatest suspicion has been dispelled. We can’t determine who is the most suspected either. The Grand Elder said helplessly.
If we didn’t find the traitor, this traitor would be a thorn in the heart of the Holy Temple, and would cause a great deal of hidden danger to the Holy Temple. It could even cause the entire Temple to lose in the future! Lin Yun’s expression was grave.
Joking aside, one could imagine how serious the consequences would be if an elder was a mole!
Moreover. Once Lin Yun thought about the fact that the deaths of the Vice Temple Master, Elder Xiong, Senior Brother Shi Zhen and the rest of them were most likely caused by the betrayal of a spy, Lin Yun hated the spy with a passion!
Lin Yun really desperately wanted to know which bast*rd. betrayed the holy temple!
That’s right, if this thorn isn’t peeled off, the Holy Temple will have no peace! The Grand Elder spoke in a serious tone.
Right now, it was even more important for the Holy Temple to pick off this thorn than to search for the altar!
”Great Elder, I’ll be blunt, I think that the Second Elder is the most suspicious.” Lin Yun said.
This was the self-consciousness in Lin Yun’s heart, Lin Yun always felt that the Second Elder’s character was not good, and that if he betrayed the Holy Temple, he would be more likely to do so, than the other few elders.
I’ve exchanged views with the hall master, for now, our suspicion of the second elder is indeed a bit heavier than the other two elders, and he reacted a lot in the matter of the suspect. The Grand Elder said.
The Grand Elder continued: but without substantial evidence, we won’t take action, we can’t let any bad person off the hook, but we can’t wrongly accuse any good person either.
Lin Yun nodded in agreement, but Lin Yun had the heaviest suspicion in his heart.
Eldest Elder, I have a suggestion to test, who is the traitor. Lin Yun said.
Immediately after, Lin Yun came to the ear of the Grand Elder and quietly spoke his thoughts, to the Grand Elder.
