"I, Yin Busan, swear by the Heart Devil Oath, that I have never betrayed the Yin Family and have never done anything detrintal to the Yin Family; everything is for the Yin Family first..."

Yin Busan spoke for quite a while, each sentence more steadfast than the last. No one in the entire Yin Family was more resolute than he was.

"Big brother, such a person will never be exploited by a Heart Demon. His Heart Field is already filled by one thing, leaving no room for Devil Thoughts, and he'll never need a hungry ghost.

Big brother, you'd better be careful with this kind of person. If soone like this goes against our Jinlan Mountain, it would be terrifying. Even if I exerted all my efforts, I wouldn't be able to affect him, and I estimate your abilities wouldn't either."

Yu Ziqing ignored Lou Huai and just looked at Yin Busan.

Yin Busan's gaze was as unwavering as if carved in stone, almost tangible.

What a terrifying guy.

He had once wondered if there was really anyone besides him who would never fear Devil Thoughts or entering a Devilic state.

Unexpectedly, there really was—this guy, Yin Busan.

After Yin Busan finished his oath, Yu Ziqing left.

Half a day later, soone ca to invite Yu Ziqing over.

This ti, Yu Ziqing brought Wu Shuangge with him.

Upon arriving, only three people were present: Yin Busan, Yin Busi, and the quick-tempered clan elder.

Yin Busi personally walked out the door to greet Yu Ziqing outside.

Upon seeing Yu Ziqing, Yin Busi bowed from a distance and perford a grand salute.

"Thank you, Brother Qing, for all that you've done. The Yin Family cannot repay you."

"No need for courtesy." Yu Ziqing returned the salute, thought for a mont, and asked, "If I may ask boldly, how co you haven't been caught?"

Yin Busi chuckled and pointed to his head.

"Do you know why I'm called Yin Busi?"

"I don't."

"I have inscribed four commandnts into my Divine Soul, the first being never to betray the Yin Family and never to betray my big brother."

Yu Ziqing was taken aback.

"So, Brother Qing, you need not doubt . In the entire Yin Family, I am absolutely impossible to betray the Yin Family or my big brother."

"You figured it out?" Yu Ziqing chuckled, not denying it.

"I knew from the beginning, but at the ti, I couldn't say anything. I wanted people to think I was soone who could be swayed, soone with thoughts of replacing my big brother.

But now, there's no need to keep hiding. At least, I didn't want to hide from you anymore, I had to let you know I was trustworthy.

But after today, I will go to receive punishnt from the family's law.

Fortunately, my big brother is soone who only handles things according to the rules.

Once the traitor is confird, I will be released."

"How did you get out now?" Yu Ziqing was a bit curious, weren't they even going to put on an act?

"The Great Clan Elder personally summoned , naturally no one could stop it." Yin Busi smiled, thought for a mont, and added, "It's that Elder Yin Xiaoshi; he likes the way I handle things, and he wanted to personally ask so questions."

"If I may ask boldly, was that elder given this na because of strong murderous intent?" Yu Ziqing asked quietly.

"Yes, Elder Shi was not fond of the Yin Family's Sealing Secret Technique in his youth; he practiced only Killing Techniques. When deciding a na, he settled on Xiaoshi. Later in his years, he sealed his sword, not venturing out anymore. If you like Sword Cultivation, you can ask the Great Clan Elder for guidance; he surely wouldn't hold back."

Yu Ziqing thought for a mont. There didn't seem to be anyone from the Yin Family among the Sword Cultivators ntioned in the rumors.

"Don't bother guessing; when the Great Clan Elder travels outside, he never uses the Yin Family's na. If you want to know, ask him yourself. As a junior, it's not my place to say. The Great Clan Elder's temper isn't the best, and I don't want to get beaten up.

However, I guess you've definitely heard his na spoken outside."

Yu Ziqing suddenly laughed aloud. Indeed, using pseudonyms when traveling was standard practice worldwide, not just sothing he did.

Yu Ziqing thought of many strong individuals known outside, so only by pseudonyms, and so who suddenly vanished without a word.

Were those people also quick to use a pseudonym whenever they ventured out if they weren't dead?

Not wanting to wander anymore, they'd drop the pseudonym and return to their original identity.

Yin Busi was led into the courtyard, where Elder Yin Xiaoshi wore a smile, scrutinizing Yu Ziqing.

"Youth, next ti you use your little tricks, don't do it in front of a Sword Cultivator, or you'll be found out.

A real Sword Cultivator's Sword Heart is pure, and Sword Intent flawless; any slightest external force, regardless of what it is, will be detected.

Your little Fire Qi will, of course, be discovered as well, though I do have fire and didn't bother with you."

"Thank you, senior, for your guidance." Yu Ziqing respectfully perford a salute, grateful for the elder's teachings.

Elder Yin Xiaoshi still smiled, uninterested in Yu Ziqing's little trick. He naturally knew that Yu Ziqing was rooting out the Yin Family's traitor, sothing he was happy to see, even actively incorporating a slight Fire Qi, stirring the fla in his own chest.

If he suppressed it any longer, he'd almost have drawn his sword to kill so people.

Elder Yin Xiaoshi leaned on his cane and walked inside. Seeing the elder's frail-looking back, Yu Ziqing instantly thought of his village chief.

Indeed, those who could act so convincingly like a weak chicken must be bigshots.

Yu Ziqing smoothly stepped forward to support Elder Yin Xiaoshi.
