Chapter 1337 Luring the Traitor Ou

Translated by XephiZ

Edited by Aelryinth

Covered in filth and ashes, Mo Fan walked into the Canton Tower and made his way to the ward on the seventieth floor.

He could not afford to sit still. Someone was waiting for him to return safely, and someone was waiting to be comforted by him with everything he had.

“What should I even tell the Hall Mother? Please don’t do anything so reckless next time. I know that every person’s life is precious, but we from the Parthenon Temple should only do things that are within our powers, to ensure that we can do more meaningful things…” Tata was speaking quickly. Mo Fan could hear her Greek accented speech before entering the room.

“My Heavens, you’re finally back! I thought you were killed too!” Feng Zhoulong immediately walked up to Mo Fan.

Lingling went up to Mo Fan too. She quickly helped him to a sickbed after seeing his injuries.

“Lingling, I’m sorry…” Mo Fan said grimly.

If he had managed to see through Bei Jiang’s abilities earlier, he would have been able to save Leng Qing’s life.

Bei Jiang was dead, but he would trade many Bei Jiang for Leng Qing’s life!

“What is there to be sorry about? Humph, didn’t you notice that someone has fainted?” Tata spoke up, displeased.

Mo Fan looked around and saw Xinxia lying beside Leng Qing’s bed like she had fallen asleep, yet Mo Fan knew Xinxia would never fall asleep in a situation like this.

He went over to Xinxia and noticed how terrifyingly pale her face was. It was like she had endured great torture.

“What happened?” Mo Fan asked.

“I don’t know what we owe you, but Her Highness used a sacred art of the Parthenon Temple, one she has yet to master…” Tata kept grumbling.

Xinxia slowly regained consciousness when she heard Mo Fan’s voice. She smiled when she saw Mo Fan standing in front of her, but her eyes were flickering when she saw Mo Fan’s injuries.

“I’ll…I’ll treat your…”

Tata immediately interrupted as Xinxia was trying to say something. “My little Saintess, are you trying to make me a sinner of the Parthenon Temple?! Let others worry about his injuries. Don’t you cast another spell, or I’ll have no choice but to drag you back to the Parthenon Temple!” Tata screamed.

Xinxia began to panic as soon as she saw Mo Fan’s injuries. It was common to see Mo Fan with injuries, but they had never been as serious as the ones he currently had. A few of them had almost cut his throat open. She could not imagine how close to death Mo Fan was in the fight. He might not have returned!

“Did you use the Spell of Resurrection?” Mo Fan asked.

Xinxia shook her head and said, “I didn’t use the Spell of Resurrection. I only used the Greater Healing Blessing of the Parthenon Temple. My cultivation is not strong enough, so I was worn out by it.”

“Worn out? Do you think I don’t understand your words? You’ve damaged your soul for it, and you’ve only preserved the soul of her body for now. If you don’t cast the Greater Healing Blessing on her every month, she is still going to die!,” Tata exclaimed.

“Sister Xinxia, my grandpa always says that our fate is in the hands of the Heavens. We’ve done all we could for our sister. You don’t have to sacrifice your soul for her… it was my sister’s decision. She knew something like this would happen one day the moment she chose this path,” Lingling did not cry this time. She even tried to comfort Xinxia.

Xinxia did not agree with her. She placed her hand on Leng Qing’s palm and said softly, “If our fate is really in the hands of the Heavens, it means fate has brought me here to save Sister Leng Qing’s life. Don’t worry, it’s not as serious as Tata is saying. I can cast the Greater Healing Blessing on Leng Qing once every month after my cultivation improves. I’ll bring her to the Parthenon Temple. You all have tried so hard to save her, how can I not do anything?

“The Source of Darkness has been destroyed. Even though she has stepped into the Gates of Hell, there are cases where people with wilted hearts came back to life in the history of the Parthenon Temple, which is why I’m eager to preserve her soul. It’s a reminder that I shouldn’t be slacking on my cultivation, too. Don’t worry, I won’t force myself, and I won’t do anything excessive, but I’ll try my best to save her. If one year isn’t enough, I’ll spend two years, or three years…”

Mo Fan was touched by Xinxia’s determination. There were many things he wanted to say, but he expressed them with a hug.

“I was thinking of giving Brother Mo Fan a surprise and staying with you for a few days, but I’ll have to bring Sister Leng Qing back to the Parthenon Temple…” Xinxia said apologetically.

“It’s my fault. Stay until tomorrow,” Mo Fan felt guilty.

Xinxia finally had a chance to rest, yet she ended up so worn out because of him!

“Mm!” Xinxia nodded.

When Mo Fan woke up the next morning, half of the bed was already empty, with only a faint pleasant scent left. Mo Fan was already missing her. He also felt a little helpless.

Did she already leave?

Why did he have to sleep like a pig? His injuries had already recovered by the end of the night. He could have woken up earlier to do something shameless, yet he had missed out on the opportunity.

He should really pay a visit to Greece. He believed the old antiques of the Parthenon Temple were missing him too…

“Mo Fan, I’ve decided to dig the Cold Prince out!” Lingling’s voice came out of nowhere.

It scared the shit out of Mo Fan. Since when did Lingling learn to come and go like a shadow?

“Bei Jiang was only an assassin. The person that wanted my sister dead was the Red Cardinal of the Black Vatican, known as the Cold Prince. The information that my sister risked her life for is clearly something very important. Every Red Cardinal is a psychopath. I believe my sister discovered something terrifying,” Lingling said sternly.

“We should discuss it with your grandfather first. It’s a little difficult for us to take on a Red Cardinal yet,” Mo Fan replied.

“My grandpa won’t be coming back to the country for some time. Something huge must have happened,” Lingling told him.

“Then we’ll go talk to Zhu Meng and the others. We don’t have a single clue where to start, unless your sister is able to wake up now,” Mo Fan said.

Lingling shook her head and said, “We do have one.”

Mo Fan glanced at Lingling in confusion.

Leng Qing did not tell them anything. It was likely something that could not be explained clearly in a few words. It might be a place, a secret lair, or part of a conspiracy.

“Do you remember how we were using the traitor to relay the information to the Cold Prince?” Lingling said.

“Of course. It’s actually quite terrifying, knowing that someone in the Enforcement Union is working for the Black Vatican,” Mo Fan said.

Mo Fan remembered Leng Qing mentioning that there was a traitor in the Enforcement Union, but the traitor was not necessarily a member of the Black Vatican. He was still an Enforcer, yet he was unaware that he was betraying his colleagues. He was most likely giving away information to a certain organization in return for some benefits, but the Black Vatican was able to secure the information, too. Therefore, it did not necessarily mean someone in the Enforcement Union was a spy sent by the Black Vatican, but it was obvious that there was a breach. It was not safe to pass important information to the Enforcement Union. Even the secret message encrypted by an Elder had ended up in the hands of the Black Vatican in no time.

However, the person leaking the information in the Enforcement Union was clearly a huge problem, considering how quickly the message had ended up in the Cold Prince’s hands!

“I handled the encrypted message differently when I was sending it out. I duplicated the message and requested the Enforcement Union of different places meet us at the road where you went, but the cities I wrote were Foshan, Xiamen, Shenzhen, Kunming… these cities have the same address of the road in Guangzhou,” Lingling told him.

“You purposely gave them the wrong address? How did Bei Jiang know where I am then… ah, I understand now. The Cold Prince and Bei Jiang know we are in Guangzhou, thus the person we were trying to contact was going to be in Guangzhou, too. When they saw the wrong addresses, they would have assumed we were trying to trick them. They would still go to the same road to look for me,” Mo Fan said.

“But the traitor knew we were in Guangzhou and my sister’s condition. The person knew we hadn’t learned anything important. It was obvious that the message we sent was bait,” Lingling said.

“But how do we know who’s the traitor? Every city has a different person who will receive the person that sent the secret message,” Mo Fan said.

“Which is why I used my role as a Hunter Master to request a Hunter meet with the recipient in Foshan, Xiamen, Shenzhen, and Kunming… I was just trying my luck to see if the traitor would make a mistake,” Lingling said.

Mo Fan was stunned. Lingling’s move was absolutely brilliant!

Lingling purposely sent the wrong address to trick the traitor into believing that it was just bait, yet she still ended up sending people to meet with the recipients!

“Last night, the Hunter in Kunming told me that there was no one waiting for him at the designated location, which means the person that received the secret message in Kunming is working for the Black Vatican. His mistake has exposed himself, but he doesn’t know it. The person must have quite a high status and role in the Enforcement Union. I was thinking of taking him out right away, but now that we’ve learned the Cold Prince is up to something, I believe we should keep the line there. We might be able to track the Red Cardinal down with it!” Lingling’s eyes glittered.

“Lingling, you are an absolute genius! Well done, we finally have some clues we can work on, which means we are no longer passive… we might be able to take the lead and take down the Red Cardinal!” Mo Fan exclaimed excitedly.

Lingling’s plan was impressive, especially how she had purposely given out the wrong address, yet still sent someone to meet the recipients. If the traitor was more cautious and sent someone to the address just in case, they would have ended up empty-handed still. However, the receiver in Kunming did not show up as expected; the person must have been too busy enjoying a sense of achievement after taking out an Elder of the Enforcement Union!
