Global Game: I Can Choose Instance Rewards-Chapter 515 - 356: Exposing the Truth, Shock and Admiration (Part 2)

Wang Zhifan casually decided the fate of the demonic woman from the demon sect. He wasn’t worried at all that this entity, described as quite powerful in the Destiny Divination Book, would find a chance to escape. This is because he had infused a substantial amount of ice source power into her and coupled with her numerous injuries, she was basically half-dead.

"Sun Xiang, the second person I want to question at this assembly is you. Are you willing to come forward voluntarily?"

All eyes in the hall were on Wang Zhifan as he turned his gaze toward Sun Xiang, the deacon of the Juyi Sect, who had been an onlooker just moments before. This thirty-something man, dressed in a uniform gray-white outfit, suddenly wore a look of shock.

For a moment, everyone else in the hall was astonished by Wang Zhifan’s words. How could they not understand what he meant? It indicated that Sun Xiang was also an infiltrator from the demon sect! 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Deacon Sun is also in disguise from the demon sect?! That’s impossible!"

"It shouldn’t be. I’ve known him for many years. If he had been replaced, I wouldn’t have failed to notice!"

"This is terrifying. I can’t even begin to imagine who else might be like this..."

Amidst the crowd’s discussions, Sun Xiang, the deacon now in the spotlight, felt enormous pressure. He sensed the terrifying power from Wang Zhifan in front of him, like a mountain or an ocean. In front of this young man, he had no chance of resisting, but he did not intend to submit so easily. He suspected this sect leader was only somewhat suspicious of him and was trying to trick him.

"Mr. Wang! I’ve been loyally serving the Juyi Sect for over ten years! Since joining Wind Snow Tower, I’ve never harbored any second thoughts! If you, Sect Leader, doubt my loyalty, I can only prove my innocence with death!"

As he spoke, the man drew his longsword, aiming to slash his throat, appearing extremely loyal and fearless. But as he expected, Wang Zhifan reached out at the last moment to grab the arm holding the sword, allowing Sun Xiang to breathe a sigh of relief, feeling he had gambled correctly.

But what Sun Xiang did not foresee was that although Wang Zhifan played along with his act of proving his innocence through death, he did not choose to let him go. Instead, he raised his voice and said:

"Sun Xiang, since you refuse to admit it voluntarily, I will bring out the evidence and convince you beyond doubt... Someone, bring it over!"

At the end of Wang Zhifan’s command, a mysterious black-clad, masked individual strode in through the hall’s back door, holding a large piece of yellow paper covered in dense writing.

"That is..."

At first glance, Sun Xiang could not see clearly what was brought, but when the black-clad person walked closer, he immediately understood. His face turned deathly pale, and the longsword in his hand lost grip, dropping to the floor with a crisp clang.

Wang Zhifan paid no attention to Sun Xiang’s frightened reaction, nor did he worry about any sneak attack from him. Instead, he turned to the others in the hall and said:

"Everyone, this paper was found after I secretly discovered Sun Xiang’s secretive plot. I had someone retrieve it from the hidden layer at the bottom of his wardrobe. Mr. He, please read the text for everyone."

"Yes, Sect Leader."

Mr. He, who had been wandering when the demonic woman issue arose, quickly took the yellow paper from the hand of the night-clad person and began reading out loud to the crowd.

"To the venerable Saint Sect, rumors recently circulated in the tower of a righteous strongman taking the sect leader position. Once I uncover his details, I can arrange an ambush to avenge the gruesome death of the Blood炼尊者 (Blood Refinement Master)..."

Partway through reading, Mr. He found it hard to continue because the words on the paper were too blatant. They clearly showed it was left by an infiltrator from the demon sect. The so-called Blood炼尊者 was apparently the demon leader who was besieged by Wang Zhifan and other righteous sect leaders a while ago, and the Saint Sect is the demon sect. It’s evidence of an infiltrator colluding with the demon sect against his own people.

If it were just these words, it could potentially be dismissed as someone being framed. After all, anyone can write, but the problem was that Mr. He, who knew Sun Xiang since he first joined the Juyi Sect, instantly recognized the handwriting as Sun Xiang’s!

"Sun Xiang... I never thought you were such a person! I, Mr. He, watched you rise from a handyman to a deacon! How could you collude with the demon sect against your own people!"

As he spoke, Mr. He hurled the paper away, losing his composure, and charged in front of the pale-faced Sun Xiang, pointing his finger at his nose and cursing. In just a few seconds, he wanted to channel his energy to slap this traitor to death.

But the nearby Wang Zhifan quickly exerted his aura to calm Mr. He and rendered a verdict against the now defenseless Sun Xiang, deciding to have him detained like the demonic woman for further interrogation.

During this time, everyone in the hall erupted in an uproar. After all, Sun Xiang was, strictly speaking, an insider and had been around longer than many others. They found it hard to accept that even someone like him had joined the demon sect. Many were incredulous, clambering to pass around the written evidence Wang Zhifan brought. Some, like Mr. He, shouted and cursed Sun Xiang for his betrayal, enraged at his treachery.

Back in his seat, the Sect Leader of the Wuji Sect, Xiong Tianli, fell into deep thought at this scene. On one hand, he was shocked at the degeneration of the Juyi Sect’s personnel. On the other, he marveled at Wang Zhifan’s unparalleled investigative ability, able to uncover such deeply hidden infiltrators of the demon sect.

Initially, he thought he was qualified to impart some of his experience in this field to Wang Zhifan. Now, he realized he didn’t understand Wang Zhifan’s skills and depths. This young man was far more than just powerful; there was definitely a very strong, mysterious hidden strength behind him that no one should underestimate.

His two disciples, Wu Xun and Yang Qingqing, who he had arranged to assist, were equally shocked and impressed by Wang Zhifan’s abilities. They had felt this way when he exposed the disguised demonic woman, and now with the betrayal of an internal elder being revealed, they were in even more awe.

"Mr. Wang, the Honored Guest Elder, truly deserves the title of an extraordinary genius. Compared to him, the so-called geniuses in the eyes of me and my junior sisters and brothers are nothing. Whether in terms of strength or in other aspects, in the future at the Wind Snow Tower, I’ll definitely seek his guidance..."

"Sect Leader Wang is indeed too mysterious. Before his subordinates appeared, I completely had no perception of their presence...He must come from a powerful, hidden sect of hermits. Reemerging into the world only to hone himself; working under such a person, I’m bound to learn a lot!"

As Sun Xiang, the second person to be exposed, was bound and taken away by Wang Zhifan’s order, he called on everyone to calm down and resume the assembly.

However, just when everyone thought the third person named, Qu E, the water-carrying maid, would be another demon sect infiltrator, he revealed that, upon investigation, there was no sign she had joined the demon sect. Instead, she had been victimized by the demon sect and had a gu worm planted in her body.

Wang Zhifan then, in front of everyone, activated his cultivation force and delivered a palm that made Qu E expel the gu worm, allowing everyone to witness firsthand the truth of his words, further strengthening his subordinates’ trust in him.

As for how Wang Zhifan could so smoothly expel the gu worm from this woman, it had little to do with his pretend exertion of cultivation power in that palm. The two cultivation techniques he practiced were not suited for such matters. What he truly relied on was the meticulously honed ice source power, which directly pinpointed the gu worm within her body and froze it precisely to death. Then, due to his ability to control the ice block, he moved it out directly, a precision akin to a surgical operation.

Thus, in the subsequent assembly, Wang Zhifan revealed the true identities of others who were named, always presenting crucial evidence, making it clear that he was the type to seek truth without wrongful accusations. This rapidly elevated everyone’s trust and confidence in his abilities to a high level.

In the assembly’s conclusion, he didn’t immediately disperse everyone back to their posts. Instead, he provided precise intel on a demon sect hideout in Tiger Head Town, dispatching his capable subordinates to address the threat immediately.
