The short, stout disciple from Jade Void Palace felt a great deal of relief after successfully sending out the intelligence.
He was certain that among the many undercover agents, he was the first to discover the news.
Although he had only learned a small amount so far and couldn't confirm who it was, he had at least found a thread of a clue.
He had made the first contribution this time, and the rewards from the Heavenly Demon Palace should be substantial.
Thinking of this, the short, stout cultivator couldn't help but hum a little tune.
"Sister ahead, slow down your steps..."
Just as he was humming his most triumphant tune, a sharp blade suddenly pierced through his chest.
"Pfft!"
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out. The short, stout cultivator looked back with unwillingness, only to see a face of a peerlessly beautiful woman.
To think it was such a stunning female assassin; at least he felt his death was not entirely in vain.
However, the beautiful woman's icy gaze didn't linger on him. As the blade was withdrawn, his life force rapidly drained away.
Huang Feifei pulled out her short sword, wiped the bloodstains on the short, stout cultivator's robe, then set it ablaze, reducing the corpse to ashes.
With her current Heavenly Immortal cultivation, assassinating a True Immortal was effortless.
As for her Law of Death, the short, stout cultivator wasn't qualified for her to even use it.
With a casual sweep, she brushed the ashes on the ground into the grass, then used earth elemental spells to make the soil writhe, causing the remaining ashes to disappear completely.
After dealing with the assassination scene, Huang Feifei's figure blurred, and she vanished from the spot.
A quarter of an hour later, Huang Feifei appeared in a secret chamber.
In her hand was a jade slip, inscribed with the four characters "True Essentials of Alchemy."
Her divine sense cautiously probed into it, initially revealing some very basic alchemy insights.
Most people, upon seeing such content, would lose interest and not continue reading. Who would have thought there was a hidden mechanism within!
After her divine sense bypassed a layer of concealed formations, she finally saw the true content.
A cruel, cold smile flickered across Huang Feifei's face.
Over the years, her intelligence organization had long infiltrated the Heavenly Demon Palace, including the intelligence organization within the Heavenly Demon Palace itself.
Especially in the investigation of Xiao Fei, it had been thoroughly compromised.
Otherwise, wouldn't the vast amounts of immortal stone resources Xiao Fei threw out every year be wasted?
Just then, Xiao Fei pushed open the door of the secret chamber and walked in.
"Feifei, did something happen?"
He was in Jade Void Palace, and to minimize the risk of exposure, Huang Feifei would not send urgent messages unless there was a special situation.
"Young Master! Look at this."
Huang Feifei handed the jade slip in her hand to Xiao Fei.
Xiao Fei took it and carefully examined it with his divine sense, quickly discovering the concealed formation within.
After reading it, he let out a long sigh of relief.
"That was close, I almost had to change my identity again!"
He currently had two avatars in Jade Void Palace: one was a model of virtue, and the other was a troublemaker. One overt and one covert, they had the entire lower echelon of Jade Void Palace disciples completely under their control.
As long as he was given enough time, he could cultivate a group of confidantes from these disciples and then slowly develop from the bottom up.
Moreover, Zhang Yi, as the Peak Master of the Morality Peak and a direct disciple of the Palace Master, had an extremely convenient identity within Jade Void Palace. He truly didn't want to change it unless absolutely necessary.
"Feifei, how do you plan to handle this matter?"
Intelligence matters were all handled by Huang Feifei, so Xiao Fei naturally listened to her opinion.
"The disciple from Morality Peak has already been killed by me to silence him. Besides him, no one else knows about this.
This matter has been temporarily suppressed.
However, it also serves as a warning to us. If this continues for a long time, others will inevitably uncover some clues.
Even if our intelligence department can intercept all this information and eliminate the undercover agents one by one, it will still alert the enemy.
This is not a long-term solution."
Once it came to work matters, Huang Feifei displayed exceptional confidence, possessing the demeanor of a strong woman.
Xiao Fei listened to Huang Feifei's analysis, his gaze fixed on her profile. Her exquisite facial features, her snow-white skin, momentarily captivated him.
"Young Master, are you listening?"
"Mmm-hmm! I'm listening, continue!"
Xiao Fei snapped back to reality from his reverie, nodding repeatedly in affirmation.
"I plan to substitute the beams and replace the pillars!"
Huang Feifei voiced her idea. Looking up, she found Xiao Fei still gazing at her, and her face blushed. She then deliberately leaned towards Xiao Fei.
Her face landed directly on Xiao Fei's lips.
Over the years, she had already planned in her heart to be more proactive and "consume" the Young Master.
Today, she was taking this opportunity to make her move.
Xiao Fei felt his lips press against smooth, delicate skin and couldn't help but draw in a breath.
"Pop!"
After a soft sound, a red mark appeared on Huang Feifei's face.
"Right, Feifei, what were you saying just now?"
"I said, I plan to substitute the beams and replace the pillars..."
...
The Heavenly Demon Palace had ordered the undercover agents lurking in Jade Void Palace to investigate covertly. After decades, they finally yielded some results.
Today, they received a piece of intelligence that greatly excited several high-ranking figures of the Heavenly Demon Palace.
A Demon Race Immortal Monarch, with a solemn expression, held a jade slip inscribed with the four characters "True Essentials of Alchemy."
"Can you guarantee this intelligence is accurate?"
"Your subordinate can guarantee it is real intelligence. This jade slip bears the aura of this undercover agent.
Furthermore, there is another jade slip bearing the aura of the Jade Void Palace Master to corroborate it."
A Heavenly Immortal in charge of intelligence took out another jade slip, which still carried the faint aura of the Jade Void Palace Master.
This jade slip was likely a letter from the Jade Void Palace Master to a cultivator of the Purple Phoenix Palace, subtly mentioning some key information.
"Reward the undercover agent who transmitted this intelligence handsomely, and instruct him to follow the lead, preferably to identify the specific individual."
"Reporting to the Demon Monarch, that undercover agent's identity was leaked after transmitting the intelligence, and he was executed by Jade Void Palace," said a Heavenly Demon in charge of intelligence with regret.
"That is indeed a pity! But undercover work is inherently dangerous. Reward his family generously!"
This Demon Monarch was quite generous to his subordinates who achieved merit, especially those who sacrificed their lives, their rewards were even greater.
"Thank you, Demon Monarch. This undercover agent is my adopted son!"
For the Demon Race to send undercover agents towards the Human Race, they could only adopt some human youths with good potential and train them from a young age.
Of course, if the adopted son died outside, he would be the one to receive the reward, so there was no loss.
"Then the reward will be given directly to you!"
"Alright, since Xiao Fei is not in Jade Void Palace, you are no longer needed here. You may withdraw."
The Demon Monarch waved his hand, dismissing the Heavenly Demon. A moment later, he summoned another subordinate in charge of intelligence.
"According to the news I received, Xiao Fei had already secretly infiltrated the Purple Phoenix Palace long ago. No wonder we couldn't find him."
"You are responsible for intelligence in the Purple Phoenix Palace. Go back and investigate first to confirm the authenticity of this information."
