The Patriarch nodded slightly.
"Then check the records."
The order came instantly.
Elders moved.
Maintenance logs were brought.
Movement records.
Assignments.
Everything.
Hours passed.
Eventually the results came.
Ju Fan indeed had not touched sect Jiangshi recently.
Most of his work orders had been suspended months earlier.
The suspicion faded.
The First Kidney Peak Head no longer spoke.
Han Yu quietly stood aside.
Inside however…
He smiled.
The first step had succeeded.
Now the sect possessed evidence.
Evidence of modified Jiangshi.
Evidence of hidden tampering.
Evidence pointing toward a faction.
And best of all…
The evidence came from him.
The Patriarch finally spoke.
"This confirms it."
The hall quieted.
"There is indeed a hidden force inside our sect."
"A force capable of modifying Jiangshi."
"A force capable of hiding itself."
The elders' expressions darkened.
The Supreme Elder slowly opened his eyes.
"If they can modify Jiangshi…"
