This Sword Cultivator is Somewhat Dependable-Chapter 762 - 48: Leveraging Momentum to Eliminate Demons_2
Within the War Demon Clan alone, the Demon Lord of the Jian Luo lineage along with twenty-seven Demon Lords from the twenty-seven King Realms make at least thirty Demon Lords in existence.
Under each Demon Lord’s command, there are at least five or six Ninth Grade members of the Demon Race following them, and in many cases, a dozen or more.
For instance, under the command of Hei Sha Demon Venerable, there are precisely eight Ninth Grade Demonic Cultivators.
A rough count reveals that there are about two hundred Ninth Grade members of the Demon Race in the Burning Moon Domain.
What a terrifying number is this?
Moreover, the War Demons are only one of the Eight Great Holy Demon Clans of the Abyss. freewebnσvel.cѳm
If it weren’t for the fear of Ancestral Daoist Xia, would the Demon Race have already sent their army to invade again?
......
"How much do you know about my forces?" Lu Qingshan suddenly asked after pondering for a while.
——Within the Jade of Mo, there were only intelligence reports on Chi Pu and Diao Feng, nothing on Qing Ge.
Yu Luo was taken aback and somewhat puzzled.
Why ask this?
"If you wish to swear allegiance to me, you must demonstrate your value," Lu Qingshan said coldly. "To be honest with you, among my followers, there are spies planted by Chi Pu, occupying high positions with no small authority.
I want to see if you can figure out which of my followers is Chi Pu’s informant."
So that’s it.
Yu Luo immediately caught on.
This was a test from Qing Ge.
He wasn’t afraid of the test, and after pondering for a moment, he carefully analyzed, "First of all, since you mentioned that this person holds a high position, it suggests that this person should be of the Demon Marshal rank.
Among your followers, there are currently three Demon Marshals, namely Pu Qu, Wu Sen, and Green Serpent."
"Among them, Pu Qu Demon Marshal is a high-ranking Demon Marshal, the other two are both low-ranking Demon Marshals.
Pu Qu Demon Marshal is from the Blood Demon Clan, cultivating the Blood God Body, Wu Sen is from the Armor Demon Clan, cultivating the Black Scale Demon Body, Green Serpent is from the Serpent Demon Tribe, cultivating the Myriad Poison Demon Body."
As Yu Luo spoke, he paused for a moment, seemingly organizing his thoughts, then continued, "At first glance, it seems that Wu Sen, the Demon Marshal, has the highest possibility of being the insider.
Since his Armor Demon Clan is one of the forces behind Lord Chi Pu.
However, for this very reason, Wu Sen was the first I excluded as the possible mole.
After all, if he were truly an informant for Lord Chi Pu, it would be too conspicuous, and naturally, he would not be trusted by you, making it difficult for him to fulfill the tasks assigned by Chi Pu as an informant.
Then the choice narrows down to one of the two remaining, Pu Qu Demon Marshal or Green Serpent Demon Marshal."
"Pu Qu Demon Marshal’s Blood God Body can cultivate a Blood God Pupil, which possesses many supportive Divine Skills with endless uses. Because of this, Pu Qu Demon Marshal is highly valued by you.
In contrast, Green Serpent Demon Marshal’s Myriad Poison Demon Body makes him so toxic that others dare not approach him easily, causing you to keep your distance and making his status the lowest among your Demon Marshals.
Since Chi Pu wants to plant someone by your side, he would need to ensure that this person gains your trust.
Only by having close interactions with you can he gather your confidential information."
"So it seems," Yu Luo’s pupils dilated in shock, "the spy that Chi Pu planted by your side, could it be...Pu Qu Demon Marshal?!"
He was incredulous.
The strongest around Qing Ge, in fact, belonged to another Lord?
How could this play out? Completely overwhelmed.
Is it too late to regret my allegiance now?
Clap clap clap!
Crisp clapping broke Yu Luo’s reverie.
Lu Qingshan applauded and praised, "You do have some brains.
You guessed right, Pu Qu Demon Marshal is indeed the spy my dear brother has planted by my side."
While he praised Yu Luo outwardly, he felt the same inwardly, though not about the same aspect.
Indeed, I was not wrong about you; given a stage, you took flight.
He simply started a topic, and without any need for detailed guidance, Yu Luo launched into a brilliant analysis, pointing directly at Pu Qu Demon Marshal.
A mole?
The devil knows if there is one, it was just an offhand remark by Lu Qingshan.
Whether or not there is one, whoever it might be, the result would be the same.
That is, Pu Qu Demon Marshal must be the mole.
And through Yu Luo’s recent analysis, he had finally completely figured out Qing Ge’s forces.
His next primary task was to find a pretext to eliminate Pu Qu Demon Marshal, who was highly esteemed by "Qing Ge."
......
At this, seeing Lu Qingshan confirm his guess, Yu Luo instantly felt a chill.
Lu Qingshan, seeing the thoughts in Yu Luo’s heart, smirked coldly, "Status is not something I grant you freely but something you must earn yourself."
"I was already aware of Pu Qu Demon Marshal’s identity yet continued to use him intensively. What do you think that was for?"
Yu Luo was startled, then suddenly realized, "Is this using the plotter’s own scheme against him?"
No wonder, after his interaction with Qing Ge, he felt that this Lord’s strategies were unimaginably profound, yet others kept calling him a "brainless brute."
It turns out it was all an act Qing Ge purposefully performed for others to see...
"Exactly, because I have not had truly reliable people, even knowing of Pu Qu’s rogue identity, I had to pretend to be kept in the dark.
After all, if I were to directly expose his identity, there would then emerge a second Pu Qu, a third Pu Qu, and they would become even more difficult to deal with."
"Unless I find followers who truly obey me, I can only let him do as he pleases."
