"Oh?" Mo Ze frowned slightly.
"I saw Su Luo and the others come up from the first level earlier. Rather than explore, she directly locked onto the target and headed towards this thatched cottage. Tell me this, if she didn't know this was the entrance to the secret path from the start, how could she have flown straight here?"
"Are you telling the truth?" Mo Ze grabbed Yan Wenqing’s collar.
If this was the case, this was a serious problem, as that meant that there was a traitor around Fairy Wuyou!
The traitor had definitely told Su Luo the correct path. Otherwise, how could she have known this route?
"Are you sure you didn't tell her?" Mo Ze stared at Yan Wenqing seriously.
"Brother Mo, would I have dared to come along If I really did this? Am I looking for death?" Yan Wenqing also felt aggrieved.
Mo Ze thought for a moment: ‘That was indeed the case. Would Yan Wenqing have dared to follow me if he really wanted to betray me?’
Yan Wenqing's words made Mo Ze believe with 90% certainty that Yan Wenqing wasn't the traitor.
He grabbed the communication amulet, called Fairy Wuyou, and told her about this matter.
"There's a traitor among us?" A hint of suspicion flashed across her eyes as she calmly surveyed her surroundings.
"Yes. According to Yan Wenqing, Su Luo unhesitantly went straight to the secret path. This is very suspicious."
"Your words make sense." Fairy Wuyou frowned deeply.
Being paranoid by nature, she began to mentally examine her followers one by one after hearing Mo Ze's words.
There weren’t many people who knew that path. However, the number wasn't very small either, so it was a little difficult to sift through them.
Nevertheless… Fairy Wuyou glanced over Lin Banli.
Lin Banli had always had a good relationship with Luo Yichen. Therefore, there was no guarantee that he wouldn't secretly help Su Luo due to his relationship with Luo Yichen.
Fairy Wuyou recalled that Mo Ze had secretly complained to her that Lin Banli was rather friendly with Su Luo…
Lin Banli was her most valued person. As long as he didn’t betray her, it didn't matter even if other people did.
Therefore, Fairy Wuyou was focused on Lin Banli.
Not knowing that he was being suspected by Fairy Wuyou, Lin Banli continued to accompany her eagerly and diligently.
By this time, Fairy Wuyou had already found the exit of the third level. There were four people accompanying her besides Lin Banli.
Fairy Wuyou quietly collected the communication tablets from the four people. However, she didn't collect Lin Banli's communication tablet.
"Come on. Let's go in." Fairy Wuyou held Lin Banli and together, they entered the secret portal.
Lin Banli smiled gently and dotingly at Fairy Wuyou: "I'll go ahead first."
Afraid that the fourth floor would be dangerous, he was willing to take the lead and shield her from all dangers.
Fairy Wuyou took a long look at Lin Banli. Raising the corner of her eyes ever so slightly, she shot an ambiguous smile at him: "Little Linzi, I trust you very much."
"I know." Lin Banli warmly returned the smile with a hint of gentleness in his eyes.
"Don't betray me." Fairy Wuyou provocatively traced her finger along the outline of Lin Banli’s pointed chin while her beautiful eyes brimmed with an incomparably charming glint. "Otherwise…"
Fairy Wuyou changed her hand into a claw and made what seemed like a grabbing move at Lin Banli's handsome face.
Lin Banli held her unruly hand and gently brought it to his lips. He stared at her affectionately and solemnly declared: "Even if I die, I will not betray you. Unless…"
