Great, it's just a lackey, we're saved!

Chapter 317 Cleaning Up the House

"Fake Tan Lin said that Zhu Qi smelled that one of us had been replaced because of the smell."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qi was the first to retort: ​​"That's not right. If I can't distinguish the differences by smell, wouldn't I have already found out the roundness by now?"

Zhou Wei smiled; she naturally knew.

In fact, Zhu Qi was able to track the circularity or perceive Hu Youniang's differences because of his understanding of Qi.

The Yuanxing method originated from Kongshan Temple and is of the same lineage as Zhu Qi.

Hu Youniang, on the other hand, was a demon cultivator, born different from others.

But the fake monk claimed that he could tell from the smell that someone else had mixed in with the crowd.

"As for distinguishing Tan Lin, that's even simpler."

Zhou Wei smiled and posed the question: "Buy 100 peaches for 100 coins." Tan Lin thought for a moment and then wrote down the answer on the paper.

"Look, this is the real Mr. Tan. Zhengshan Academy is proficient in logic and calculation, how could he not even solve the problem of buying a hundred peaches with a hundred coins?"

As for the eldest princess, Zhou Wei looked at Jiang Yueli and asked, "Princess, what would you do if I were to be driven away?"

Jiang Yueli sneered: "Either I go with you, or I'll deal with whoever tries to drive you away."

Look, this is the real Jiang Yueli!

Even if a real person loses their memories when entering an illusion, they will retain their true nature.

Just like Jiang Zao's kindness, she would spare no effort to save patients, and just like Shen Shuqing, she was tough on the outside but not so tough on the inside. Although she humiliated Jiang Zao in every way, she did not pursue the matter too much when Jiang Zao took the elixir.

Everything has a traceable pattern; with careful observation, it is not difficult to discern.

After listening, the group nodded in admiration.

Tan Lin said, "The princess once said that Zhou Dianjun was bold and meticulous, but I had never truly experienced it until this illusion."

However, now is not the time for pleasantries and flattery; the most urgent task is to escape the illusion as soon as possible.

Jiang Yueli asked, "Weiwei, you said before that Xiaozhao is the medium connecting the Academy Illusion and the Grass Collection Illusion. Does that mean the key lies with Xiaozhao?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zao sat up straight.

"Sister Wei, if you really need me, I'd be willing to die for you."

Zhou Wei said, "It's not that dramatic. I do need your help, but it's just as bait."

bait?

Jiang didn't understand.

Zhou Wei explained, "Think about it, everyone. Because the illusion in the painting collapsed, Jiang Zao and Wan Qianliang, who had lost their memories, woke up. What about Yuan Xing in the Grass Collection illusion?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's hearts stirred, and the eldest princess immediately said, "Weiwei, do you mean that Yuanxing should have woken up as well?"

Zhou Wei nodded: "This illusion technique is extremely advanced. Even if Yuanxing wakes up, with his abilities, he won't be able to get out. He can't even enter our academy's illusion on his own."

Jiang Zao thought for a moment and said, "Since I can connect two illusions, I can bring Yuanxing and the others into the academy's illusion. But Sister Wei, Yuanxing is a vicious person. If we bring him here, it may cause trouble."

"What I need is conflict, and big conflict at that!" Zhou Wei took a deep breath. "I will use the circularity to break through the shackles of the illusion."

Of course, roundness alone is not enough.

Even if the two sides fought fiercely, it wouldn't be enough to break the illusion.

But with the abbot's statue present, things are different!

Only Zhou Wei knew the power of the abbot's golden body.

……

When Yuanxing woke up, he looked around blankly and warily. He only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jiang Nianmei and Jiang Nianxing sitting there peacefully with their eyes still glazed over.

"Where is this place?"

Yuan Xing remembered that he followed behind Zhou Wei and her group, and only arrived at the foot of the mountain after Zhou Wei and the others stepped onto the white jade steps.

Unexpectedly, he lost consciousness the moment he stepped into the grass market.

When he regained consciousness, he found himself in an illusion. His experiences in the illusion over the past few days were transformed into a memory that he came to know.

Yuanxing looked at the person lying on the bed, not understanding why the abbot's golden body would turn into a child in the illusion.

Unable to figure it out, Yuanxing decided to go out and see what was going on, hoping to find a way to escape the illusion.

Unfortunately, after wandering around the grassy area, he discovered that there was an invisible wall blocking his way from all sides.

"What the hell is this thing?"

Yuanxing hardened his heart and raised a palm to strike the invisible wall.

But the wall not only didn't budge, it also reflected the circular force back at him, sending him flying.

Yuanxing tried several times but could not break through the barrier, and a sense of resentment arose in his heart.

Just as he was about to go back and find the golden-armored corpse to strike the barrier, he suddenly saw a woman walking towards him from a distance.

Yuanxing recognized her at a glance; it was Jiang Zao, a palace maid serving the eldest princess.

Jiang Zao also saw Yuanxing and raised her hand to call out, "Little Tiger, Little Tiger!"

Because of the barrier, Yuanxing couldn't hear Jiang Zao's voice and could only stand there blankly.

Yuanxing only realized what was happening when Jiang Zao passed through the barrier without any obstacles and walked to his side.

"Little Tiger, what are you staring at? How are your older brother, older sister, and younger brother?"

Yuanxing was a little confused, but still subconsciously said, "Much better."

"Come on, take me to see it."

Yuanxing led the way, pondering how Jiang Zao had broken through the barrier.

'If she can come in, she can certainly take me out.'

At this thought, Yuanxing's eyes lit up.

When Jiang Zao arrived at the thatched hut, she saw the Jiang siblings with blank stares and felt a chill run down her spine.

After waking up, the two of them were even less energetic than when they were asleep in the illusion.

Jiang Zao glanced at them casually and said worriedly, "Their condition hasn't improved, and it's not a good idea for you to take care of them alone."

"How about this, you come back to the academy with me, and I'll plead with the teachers to let you recuperate at the academy. My senior sister will treat you there, and you'll recover faster."

Upon hearing this, Yuanxing was overjoyed.

He was just worried about not having an excuse to follow Jiang Zao, but now he doesn't have to bother.

"Thank you, sister. I'll pack my things right away."

Yuanxing casually grabbed some clothes, carried the person on the bed on his back, and the four of them followed behind Jiang Zao.

When they reached the barrier, Jiang Zao grabbed Yuan Xing, and they easily passed through it.

Yuanxing turned around in shock, not understanding why only Jiang Zao could pass.

The group climbed the white jade steps and when they reached the archway, Yuanxing noticed that the academy was very quiet and didn't seem to be inhabited.

"Little Sister Xiaozhao, where are we staying?"

“Come with me,” Jiang Zao said as they walked. “We will first go to Mingzheng Hall to pay our respects to the Master, and then we will arrange accommodations for you.”

Yuanxing, unsuspecting, followed Jiang Zao toward Mingzheng Hall.

When they arrived at Mingzheng Hall Square, Yuanxing could see several people standing at the entrance of Mingzheng Hall from afar.

He squinted and looked at it, then was immediately startled.

Seeing that Jiang Zao had successfully brought Yuanxing into the academy's illusion, Zhou Wei smiled.

"Master Yuanxing, it's been a long time."

Zhu Qi also stepped forward, his face full of anger, and said, "Yuanxing, you have used the Soul Transfer Technique to harm the innocent, and you even infiltrated Kongshan Temple to kill four senior brothers! Today, I will cleanse Kongshan Temple of its filth!"
