Chapter 1268: Chapter 1268: Insider (Part 2)
Even Langfan and the others couldn’t help but look at Ye Haochuan with shock.
Who begs someone to take them back for torture? Is he out of his mind?
Feng Meiyi shot a disdainful glance at Ye Haochuan, snorted coldly, and turned her head away. It seemed that just seeing Ye Haochuan dirtied her view.
In her heart, she’d already categorized Ye Haochuan as someone who fears death and would do anything to survive.
At this moment, Ye Haochuan couldn’t care less about the so-called image problem; he only cared about whether he could achieve his goal.
Ming Quan heard him and frowned slightly, clearly pondering the reason Ye Haochuan said such a thing.
However, he ultimately couldn’t figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking and said coldly, "For us, Xuanmen has long lost any secrets; do you think you still have intelligence to offer?"
"Don’t you want to know why your second ambush against Xuanmen’s second team failed miserably?" Ye Haochuan said with interest.
"Do you know what happened?" Ming Quan suddenly lifted his eyelids and hurriedly asked.
The failed ambush that almost led to a total defeat had always been a pain in Ming Quan’s heart. During the subsequent investigation, he hadn’t completely understood what went wrong.
The only thing he learned from the inside agent was that Long Xiaotian suddenly decided to secretly contact several Nascent Soul Experts. As for when the secret island was discovered, nobody knew.
"Of course, I was the one who helped Long Xiaotian notify the other Nascent Soul Experts!" Ye Haochuan smiled smugly, "You always thought that Xuanmen didn’t have spies in the Evil Sect, huh?"
"You also didn’t consider that after Xuanmen took such a big hit from the Evil Sect, how could they possibly not have any preparation?"
"What?" Ming Quan’s heart suddenly filled with doubt.
They’d always assumed there were no Xuanmen spies among them, so they’d long dismissed the possibility of Xuanmen having any spies.
Thinking back now, it didn’t seem impossible.
With this thought, Ming Quan became furious and grabbed Ye Haochuan by the collar, demanding, "Speak up! Who is it? The one who almost led us to total defeat—I want to tear them apart!"
Damn it, you guys from the Evil Sect plant spies in Xuanmen by the dozen, but when I mention there’s just one spy in the Evil Sect, you can’t handle it? Your ability to endure is way too weak! Looks like you need to drink more melamine-laced milk powder and gutter oil for resilience!
Ye Haochuan felt disdain in his heart, but his face showed a desperation like clutching at the last straw, as he urgently said, "I can tell you, but you have to guarantee our safety!"
"Alright, as long as what you say is true, I will guarantee your safety!" Ming Quan replied without thinking.
Perhaps in his mind, he didn’t care what Ye Haochuan said. Whatever he promised, it wouldn’t matter if he sliced them all up afterward—a dead man can’t argue.
"Then why are you still standing there not talking?" Seeing Ye Haochuan hesitating, Ming Quan suddenly urged impatiently.
"Well, the thing is, I don’t actually know his name!" Ye Haochuan suddenly said with a "bitter face".
"Are you playing with me?" Ming Quan roared in anger.
Ye Haochuan looked "terrified", frantically waving his hands: "Even if you lent me courage, I wouldn’t dare lie to you. It’s just that the spy’s identity is well hidden, so he doesn’t use a real name. That’s why I..."
As he spoke, Ye Haochuan’s mind raced. There was no so-called insider involved in that matter. He made it up just to stall for time to find a way to escape.
However, he barely knew anyone in the Evil Sect and couldn’t think of anyone to use at the moment.
Listening to Ye Haochuan’s words, Ming Quan believed him a little. Since the spy could hide so well in the Evil Sect, it wasn’t possible to casually reveal his real name.
"If that’s the case, then what use do I have for you?"
Ming Quan coldly snorted, ready to crush Ye Haochuan with a slap.
Ye Haochuan showed a "terrified" expression and quickly said, "Don’t rush, don’t rush! Although I don’t know his name, I do know how to find him!"
Ming Quan’s hand paused mid-air, snorting: "If you know, then hurry up and tell me. If you keep stalling, I’ll cripple one of your legs first!"
Holy cow, do you have to be this violent? Isn’t stalling time allowed?
Ye Haochuan’s heart tightened; he knew Ming Quan’s patience was wearing thin.
"I heard from Long Xiaotian that the person seems to have mixed into the Evil Sect’s higher-ups. I once caught a glimpse of his photo, but couldn’t clearly describe him. Just give me one look at him and I’ll definitely recognize him."
After these words, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but give himself a thumbs-up—damn, his ability to concoct nonsense was becoming superb.
Ming Quan listened, furrowing his brows into a frown. He wasn’t completely convinced of Ye Haochuan’s words but was eager to uncover the hateful spy.
Alright, it’s just some ants at the Core Formation Stage, not like they’re capable of any tricks!
With this thought, Ming Quan’s heart settled down as he coldly snorted: "You better be telling the truth, or we will all perish miserably!"
He then commanded a few underlings to bind Ye Haochuan and the others, leading them to The Pentagon’s higher-ups.
"If you dare reveal the spy Xuanmen planted here, I won’t spare you!" Feng Meiyi quietly walked up to Ye Haochuan and said coldly.
Please, even if I wanted to reveal, I’d need to know who, right?
Ye Haochuan felt miserable!
In that situation earlier, if he hadn’t tried to stall, they’d probably be dead beyond dead now.
He originally wanted to escape when Ming Quan let his guard down, but now, it seemed Ming Quan wasn’t easily fooled. During the entire process of escorting them, he stayed close, giving them no chance.
Geez, am I really going to point out the insider with him? That’d be a dead end.
Ye Haochuan felt regret for a moment, but given the situation, coming up with that story was already quite impressive.
He naturally didn’t believe Ming Quan’s promises; even if he did point correctly, he’d hardly escape death.
Just as he was still agonizing, a pleasant female voice suddenly rang out.
"Ming Quan, didn’t I tell you to kill the newcomers directly? Why have you brought them back? It’s a critical time; we don’t have extra people to guard them!"
Ye Haochuan followed the voice and saw a slender and beautiful woman approaching, but the long scar on her face greatly diminished her beauty—otherwise, she’d surely be a heartthrob.
What surprised Ye Haochuan wasn’t this; he felt the woman seemed familiar but couldn’t recall where he’d seen her before.
