Charleuse was so angry that he wanted to attack Fade and leave. However, when he heard the word "traitor", he suddenly stopped and stared at Fade. He gritted his teeth and said, "What the hell are you talking about?"
Fade remained calm. He looked at Charleuse and said, "Firstly, Jenan was seriously injured, and now the convoy carrying the last ingredient was ambushed."
"I doubt you're not this naive to think that two incidents aren't related. There's no such thing as coincidence!"
The muscles on Charleuse's stiffened. After a moment of silence, he shook his head and said, "I have no idea what you are talking about. If you want to keep me here and continue to talk nonsense, then I'm going to leave now."
After that, he turned around and left.
Seeing this, Fade sighed and shook his head gently. Then, he said, "Mr. Zhu, if you think that I'm talking nonsense, then I suggest that you listen to what Jenan has to say!"
"What are you talking about?" Charleuse frowned.
Fade walked to the bedside and used his positive energy. He tapped on the bed and said, "I'm going to let Jenan tell you in person!"
While they were talking, Jenan, who had been lying on the bed and unconscious the whole time, actually opened his eyes at this moment. He turned his head and looked at Charleuse. At the same time, he said, "Master Zhu, I..."
"Jenan, you're awake! That's great...." Charleuse said excitedly.
Jenan waved his hand and said, "Master Zhu, please don't tell anyone about me. I just want to let you know that there's a traitor within the mayor's mansion and I'm guessing it's one of the eight elders."
"This..." Charleuse's face changed, and then he asked, "What happened? Who hurt you?"
Jenan shook his head gently. "I have no idea. The man was wearing a mask. I couldn't recognise him, but he's stronger than me and I'm pretty sure he's stronger than you. He might have reached Stage 9 of the Soul Refine Realm."
"What? We have a Stage 9 Soul Refine Realm cultivator among us?" Charleuse's face darkened.
Jenan continued, "Mr. Zhu, the other day, I went to Wasteland Desert to find a raw material that could unlock the Sun- Moon Sword which would help Skyle break through in his cultivation."
"Only a few people in the mayor's mansion know about this matter. However, my actions and timing were known by the other party. They were waiting in hiding to attack. Once I arrived, they launched a sneak attack on me. That's how I got injured."
"If I did not have the Heart-Protecting Mirror left by my ancestor, I'm afraid I would not be here now."
"Mr. Zhu, the day of Skyle's breakthrough is just around the corner. The most important thing for us now is to find out who the traitor is as soon as possible. Otherwise, I sense that there will be danger!"
After listening to these words, Charleuse was silent for a moment and asked, "Jenan, who do you suspect?"
This meant that Charleuse believed Jenan's words.
Jenan shook his head gently and said, "I don't know. I wished I had more details. At this moment, it could be anyone."
"Therefore, in order for us to find the traitor as soon as possible, we need to seek help."
Charleuse immediately understood what Jenan meant and turned to look at Fade.
Jenan explained at this time, "Fade saved my life and helped keep this a secret. I trust him!"
At this time, Fade also explained to Charleuse, "Jenan actually woke up when I treated him the other day. I originally wanted to help him, but at that time, he secretly transmitted a voice message to me, saying that there was a traitor within the mayor mansion and reminding me not to tell anyone. So, I cooperated with him and pretended that he was still in a coma."
After listening to Fade's explanation, Charleuse nodded slightly. He trusted Fade, wholeheartedly.
This kind of situation lasted all the way to Charleuse's generation.
As a genius of Sun-Moon City, when he was 120 years old, he had cultivated to Stage 9 of the Soul Refine Realm, which was the highest level a Chinese could cultivate to.
At that time, he was the same as many of the Chinese clan's senior geniuses. He had thought of breaking through this barrier and entering the Fetus Refine Realm. He had tried all sorts of methods and still failed.
In addition, Charleuse had discovered that aside from his own shackles, the people of the Great Hsia Domain, as well as the official forces, were intentionally suppressing the members of the Chinese, blocking their path of cultivation.
In this way, due to the gradual growth of age and the damage accumulated over so many years, Charleuse's cultivation had declined to Stage 8 of the Soul Refine Realm.
At this time, Charleuse had no choice but to give up. He tried his best to maintain his cultivation at Stage 8 of the Soul Refine Realm, so that he could protect Sun- Moon City.
Most of the people in the same generation as him were in the same situation, and most of them were inferior to Charleuse.
In the end, they could only accept their fate.
But at this moment, a genius, Skyle, appeared in Sun-Moon City. He was extremely talented. He started cultivating at the age of three, entered the Physical Refine Realm at the age of six, broke through to the Soul Refine Realm at the age of eighteen, and still continued to advance. He was turning 36 this year and he had reached Stage 9 of the Soul Refine Realm.
He was the fastest cultivator in Sun-Moon City and even the entire Chinese population to reach Stage 9 of the Soul Refine Realm in the past few thousand years.
Charleuse and the others, who had given up hope, saw hope in Skyle.
They were looking forward to seeing this once- in- a- thousand- year genius break the curse of the Chinese and enter the Fetus Refine Realm.
