NOVEL NEXT Chapter 15.1: How Did Senior Sister Know?
“The Purging Evil Pill?”
Shen Yuluan was stunned, unable to recover her thoughts for a long time. Was all of this within that junior brother’s expectations?
Unconsciously, Shen Yuluan touched the storage ring on her finger, where a bottle of Purging Evil Pills lay quietly.
“Disciple, is there anything else?”
The gentle voice brought Shen Yuluan back to reality.
“Nothing else. I’ll take my leave now.”
Shen Yuluan respectfully bowed and then descended from Qixia Peak.
After returning to her residence on Zhenyu Peak, Shen Yuluan flipped her palm, revealing a bottle of Purging Evil Pills.
Her beautiful eyes showed a contemplative look.
“Who exactly is that junior brother? How did he know I was poisoned?”
Shen Yuluan couldn’t understand it.
Her master, a peak expert at the Life and Death realm, could detect the poison within her, which made sense.
But Li Xun was only at the peak of the Qi Condensation realm, without even the ability to use spiritual sense.
He couldn’t have detected the poison just with his eyes, could he?
After thinking it over for a while and still having no clue, Shen Yuluan decided not to dwell on it.
She placed the bottle of Purging Evil Pills on the table and murmured,
“It seems I’ll need to find a chance to properly thank Junior Brother Li in the future.”
“But before that…” Shen Yuluan’s eyes flashed with a cold light as she muttered,
“I need to find out who poisoned me!”
She wasn’t naive enough to believe that her poisoning was just a coincidence.
In four months, the Law Enforcement Hall would hold a major competition, and the winner would have the chance to become the Enforcer.
This position was crucial to her, as it was second only to the Chief and the two Law Enforcement Elders within the hall.
As an Enforcer, she would have the opportunity to become a Law Enforcement Elder.
Once she became a Law Enforcement Elder, she could further advance to become the Chief Enforcer.
At the position of Chief Enforcer, she would be a powerful figure within the Profound Sun Sect, with authority second only to the Sect Master.
If Junior Brother Li hadn’t reminded her today, and with her master about to enter seclusion, it was foreseeable that four months later, she would inevitably be defeated.
At that point, not only would she miss the Enforcer position, but she might also lose her current standing.
“Du Qianluo, Cao Ming, Gu Nanxing…”
Shen Yuluan coldly uttered three names.
These three were her competitors for the Enforcer position, and they had the most motive to poison her.
After all, eliminating one rival in the next four months would increase their chances of winning.
“Who could it be?” Shen Yuluan murmured to herself.
While she was deep in thought, a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, dressed in the hall’s uniform and holding a jade slip, approached her room.
“Junior Sister Luo Yiyi seeks an audience with Senior Sister.”
“Come in.”
Shen Yuluan quickly regained her calm demeanor and spoke.
“Yes.”
Luo Yiyi entered the room, gave Shen Yuluan a slight bow, and said,
“Reporting to Senior Sister, this morning, a disciple from the Law Enforcement Hall apprehended an outer disciple.”
“An outer disciple?”
Shen Yuluan raised an eyebrow and asked casually,
“What was his offense?”
