Zhongnanshan and his party came to an end here. Although Ouyang Xiu ruined their mood in the end, they still managed to destroy the Assassination Society branch, and it was considered a happy ending.
After the six emperors said goodbye to each other, they rushed back to their respective empires.
Lin Yun followed the Ancient Sealand Emperor and returned to the Ancient Sealand Empire. He planned to stay in the Ancient Sealand Empire for a while and wait for the collection of soul jade fragments to be completed before setting off.
On the way back to the Ancient Xilan Empire, Lin Yun suddenly asked the Ancient Xilan Emperor: "You said before that you found and destroyed Ouyang Xiu's six research bases, but in the end you never caught him?"
The ancient Silan emperor nodded: "That is indeed the case."
Lin Yun added: "Then have you ever thought about why this is?"
Emperor Gu Xilan thought for a while, and then said: "Ouyang Xiu is very cautious and will definitely not set up his headquarters within the borders of our six empires."
Lin Yun shook his head and said, "This may be a reason, but it is not the main reason."
"Oh? Little brother, what do you think is the main reason?" the ancient Xilan emperor asked curiously.
Several other ancient Xilan strongmen also had curious faces.
Lin Yun continued: "The main reason is that Ouyang Xiu has placed an informant of his in the government of your empire."
"And the status of this informant is not low. At least he knows your movements at all times and can convey your actions to Ouyang Xiu as soon as possible."
Hearing Lin Yun's words, the ancient Xilan emperor was doubtful: "Little brother, are you sure?"
"Not only can I be sure, but I can also roughly guess who the spy is." Lin Yun said confidently.
After hearing Lin Yun's words, the Ancient Xilan Emperor and several Gu Xilan strongmen looked at Lin Yun with disbelief, obviously thinking that Lin Yun's words were nonsense.
Shangguan Xia Yan said from the side: "Our boss's judgment is very accurate, and his words will definitely not be wrong."
"Who do you think the spy is?" Although he didn't believe it, Gu Xilan still asked curiously.
Lin Yun did not answer directly, but asked Wang Long: "Eunuch Wei and the lieutenant general who was held hostage by us, please tell me in detail their life and background."
Hearing Lin Yun suddenly ask such a question, the ancient Xilan emperor and Wang Long were stunned, obviously unable to figure out what Lin Yun was going to do.
In fact, Lin Yun had important reasons for asking these questions.
Just now, Ouyang Xiu's puppet said to Lin Yun, "Your name is Lin Yun, right? I have already remembered you." At the same time, it also transmitted vital energy to Lin Yun, using a voice that only Lin Yun could hear.
The voice said something to Lin Yun.
What this sentence says is: "The demon dragon bloodline in your body will belong to me sooner or later!"
When he heard this sentence, Lin Yun was shocked.
He clearly had not used the power of the demon dragon bloodline in the battle here. How did Ouyang Xiu know about the demon dragon bloodline he possessed?
there is only one truth.
Apparently someone leaked Lin Yun's information to Ouyang Xiu.
As for who leaked it, Lin Yun could roughly guess it without thinking carefully.
Because Lin Yun once demonstrated the power of the demon dragon's bloodline in public in the ancient Sealand Imperial Capital.
Therefore, the person who leaked the information must be the person present at the time.
There were many people present at that time, but most of them were soldiers with no status. Those soldiers without status could not grasp the political trends of Guxilan and knew the whereabouts of Lin Yun, so they could not become Ouyang Xiu's spies.
To eliminate these people who have no status, and at the same time satisfy the need to be able to grasp the political trends, and the only people present at that time were Wang Long and the golden general.
In addition, there was Eunuch Wei. Although he was not present at the time, he later indirectly learned from Wang Long that Lin Yun had the blood of the demon dragon.
Since Wang Long met Lin Yun, he has been following Lin Yun and is always under Lin Yun's surveillance, so he can rule out suspicion.
Then the only suspects are General Golden and Eunuch Wei.
Lin Yun was not yet sure which of the two was Ouyang Xiu's spy, so he asked Wang Long about their lives and backgrounds, in order to finally determine which of the two was Ouyang Xiu's spy.
Although he was confused about what Lin Yun was asking, Wang Long still told Lin Yun all the information he had about the two people.
Eunuch Wei entered the imperial palace when he was young, got acquainted with the ancient Xilan emperor, and became a good brother on the martial arts stage.
At that time, the ancient Silan emperor admired and even obsessed with martial arts, and would compete with the masters in the palace every day.
The masters in the palace all knew that the Guxilan Emperor had a noble status and were afraid of accidentally hurting him, so they did not dare to fight him seriously and deliberately lost to him every time.
Only the young and ignorant Eunuch Wei dared to fight seriously with him at that time, allowing him to experience the thrill of fighting.
It is precisely because of this that the two of them, with different identities, became good brothers.
It is precisely because of this that Eunuch Wei became the most popular person in the current dynasty.
Judging from Eunuch Wei's experience, it is unlikely that he would betray the Emperor of Guxilan, and the Emperor of Guxilan would not believe that he would betray him.
Compared with Eunuch Wei's experience, the lieutenant general who was held hostage by Zhu Liya was much more suspicious.
That lieutenant general's name was Zhou Shaohua. He was born into a poor family in a small village. He was of ordinary origin and had mediocre qualifications.
He has been in the army for ten years. When he first entered the army, he was just an unknown soldier captain.
In the ten years since he joined the army, his cultivation and strength have improved by leaps and bounds, constantly surpassing generals who are more talented than him. He has also repeatedly made great achievements on the battlefield, and has now reached the position of lieutenant general.
His growth and struggle experience is incredible to many people, almost like a miracle.
But this was very suspicious in Lin Yun's view.
Because a person with extremely poor cultivation cannot improve by leaps and bounds for no reason. Unless that person is supported by a strong backer.
And the person who supported Zhou Shaohua behind the scenes was obviously Ouyang Xiu, who mastered cutting-edge technology.
Presumably it was Ouyang Xiu's private support for Zhou Shaohua that bribed Zhou Shaohua to become his spy, allowing Zhou Shaohua to work for him in a down-to-earth manner.
After confirming that Zhou Shaohua was Ouyang Feng's spy, Lin Yun expressed his speculation to the ancient Xilan emperor.
After listening to Lin Yun's speculation, the ancient Xilan emperor and Wang Long felt like they were given a wake-up call, and they suddenly realized.
"Zhou Shaohua's rise is very suspicious. I should have thought of this kind of thing earlier!" Wang Long slapped his forehead and said with regret on his face.
Emperor Gu Xilan said with a gloomy face: "When I return to the imperial capital, I will immediately order the arrest of Zhou Shaohua!"
