The One Who Erected the Monument

Hong Yuye was silent for a moment. She didn't immediately give her opinion on the matter. Then, she said, "Go on."

"Recently, there have been rumors within the sect concerning the Blood Wish Path, and the central figure in these rumors is Jiang Hao. It's being said that he's practicing the Blood Wish Path," Baizhi said.

"What's the truth?" Hong Yuye asked.

"He is definitely not practicing the Blood Wish Path. However, he hasn't offered any explanation or response to these rumors. I suspect that he didn't spread the rumors, but he might have intended to use the rumors to his advantage to justify his advancement. If he does that, then no one would notice the person behind him," Baizhi said.

Hong Yuye poured herself a cup of tea. "What else?"

"This situation might actually benefit us, so we've been waiting for it to be more evident. We might find some flaws in his actions, and it might lead us to the person behind him," Baizhi said.
