At this moment, Bai Zhaoyun's mental power outside keenly sensed a slight movement.

He immediately noticed that another uninvited guest had entered the fishing village.

An ominous premonition came to my mind. Could it be that those evil soul masters have made a comeback again?

Thinking of this, he decisively told Amu not to run around, and after practicing well nearby, he flashed away, left the Earthly Immortal Realm, and returned to a grassland somewhere in the Douluo Continent where he had left before and entered the Earthly Immortal Realm.

His gaze passed through the shadows of the trees and fell on the altar not far away. As expected, two figures wearing black robes and devil masks appeared there. They were the evil minions of the Holy Spirit Church.

One of them was tall and thin. He was bending over, carefully examining the lifeless bodies on the ground, as if looking for some clues.

The other man was fat and looked around bored, showing no interest in the scene before him.

"Li San, do you see what's going on?" the fat man asked impatiently, with a hint of contempt in his tone.

The tall and thin man straightened up suddenly, frowning, and warned in a cold tone: "Don't call me by my real name when you are on a mission outside!"

The obese man curled his lips indifferently and muttered in a low voice: "Tsk, what's so great about being so mysterious! I see you have been observing for a long time, tell me, what did you find?"

"Every one of these dozen people had a soul power of over 70 levels, but they were killed in one blow. The attacker was so ruthless, he is definitely not an ordinary person!" said the tall and thin man in a serious tone.

“What you mean is…” The fat man seemed to realize something, and his voice began to tremble.

"The only one who can kill so many powerful spirit masters in an instant is probably..." The tall and thin man paused and said word by word, "Title Douluo!"

"What? Titled Douluo?" The fat man's face changed drastically. He no longer dared to show contempt, and his tone was full of fear.

"That's right. It's very likely that a Titled Douluo passed by here and saw these people presiding over the sacrificial ceremony, so he took action and killed them all." The tall and thin man named Li San analyzed.

"Yes, yes, that's right! It must be like this!"

"In that case, let's go back and report!" The fat man couldn't wait to leave this place of trouble, so he turned around and wanted to leave.

"It's too late to leave now," Bai Zhaoyun said coldly, standing behind them. The two looked at each other and knew that this person was the Title Douluo who had killed more than a dozen of them. They knew that they were no match for this person.

The fat man shouted, "Run in different directions!" Bai Zhaoyun snorted coldly and was about to take action, but at this moment, the tall and thin man named Li San stabbed the defenseless fat man in the stomach with a sword, killing him to death.

Then he knelt down and said, "Believer Li San, greetings to the master." Bai Zhaoyun was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that this person was the hidden man that Bai Yun had planted in the Holy Spirit Church. After so many years, he had really forgotten about this extra character.

Bai Zhaoyun knew that Li San had mistaken him for Bai Yun. He did not explain but looked at Li San coldly with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Li San, what did I say at the beginning? Since you have become a believer, there can no longer be any innocent blood on your hands. Have you forgotten what I said?"

"Sir, please spare my life. I have not killed any innocent people in these years. Please understand my words, sir."

"What's going on with these people?" Bai Zhaoyun pointed to the altar of the small fishing village.

"Sir, these people are carrying out the orders of the branch hall master and presiding over the sacrificial ceremony. I was only sent here to investigate the cause of death of these people, and I was not involved in it!"

Li San glanced at Bai Zhaoyun secretly, then thought of something and added: "Sir, you can enter my soul through the line of faith and check my memories over the years. Over the years, I have been in seclusion, preparing to sprint to the realm of level 80 Soul Douluo, and have not carried out any tasks within the church."

Bai Zhaoyun did not believe this man's one-sided statement. After thinking about it, he decided to enter his soul through the line of faith to see if it was true.

He had already learned the line of faith from Baiyun. With the unique soul origin of him and Baiyun, it was really possible for him to directly enter this person's soul and take a look.

Bai Zhaoyun narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint blue light flashed in his eyes. He stretched out his finger and gently touched Li San's forehead.

"Ah!" Li San trembled all over, as if he was thrown into an ice cave. A bone-deep chill instantly swept through his body.

He opened his eyes wide in horror and tried to struggle, but found that his body seemed to be pressed down by an invisible mountain and he could not move.

From Bai Zhaoyun's fingertips, a faint gray aura slowly seeped into Li San's forehead, like a tiny poisonous snake, drilling into the depths of his mind.

Li San felt a sharp pain in his mind, and countless fragments of images flashed by like a revolving lantern. Those images that he had deliberately sealed away in the depths of his memory were now displayed in front of Bai Zhaoyun without reservation...

Bai Zhaoyun closed his eyes and carefully felt Li San's memory. The images were chaotic and the timelines were intertwined, but he relied on his strong mental power to quickly sort them out and find the answer he wanted.

He saw Li San's experiences over the years: his secluded training, his ecstasy when he broke through a bottleneck, and his occasional ruthlessness when carrying out tasks within the sect.

The scene changed, and Bai Zhaoyun saw Li San participating in the sacrificial ceremonies. The raging flames, the wailing of innocent villagers, and the greed and madness flashing in Li San's eyes...

Bai Zhaoyun's heart trembled. Sure enough, Li San did not tell the truth. He participated in those sacrificial ceremonies and gained huge benefits from them!

"Ah!" Li San screamed in pain, his soul seemed to be torn apart. Everything he wanted to hide was seen clearly by Bai Zhaoyun.

Bai Zhaoyun withdrew his fingers, and Li San immediately collapsed to the ground, drenched in cold sweat.

"Master, please spare me! Master, please spare me!" Li San knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Bai Zhaoyun looked at him coldly, with a hint of disgust in his eyes.

"Hmph, you are so brave!" Bai Zhaoyun's eyes were wide open with anger, and Li San was so scared that he trembled all over.

"Master, it's really you! Master, please spare my life! I was wrong, I was wrong!" Li San was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed madly to Bai Zhaoyun, "Master, please give me another chance!"

"So you knew I'm not Bai Yun, and you deliberately mentioned the line of faith just now just to test me?" Bai Zhaoyun suddenly realized, with a hint of coldness in his tone.

"Master, I really didn't know it was you! Master, please forgive me this time, I am still useful, please don't kill me!" Li San cried and knocked to the ground again and again, blood soon oozing from his forehead.

"How did you find out that I'm not Bai Yun?" Bai Zhaoyun looked down at him coldly.

"Master...you...you are not the master?" Li San trembled and spoke incoherently, "Then how can you enter my soul and check my memory?"

"Speak, or you will die!" Bai Zhaoyun interrupted him impatiently.

“Yes, yes, Master, you…oh no, this sir,” Li San was so frightened that his soul flew out of his body, and he quickly changed the subject, “Although you look exactly like my master, there is no difference in your aura or soul fluctuations. But…but…”

"but what?!"

"But you forgot that I signed a faith line with the master," Li San swallowed his saliva, "You are standing in front of me, but I can't sense you through the faith line, so..."

"So I know that you are not my master at all!" Li San said this sentence with difficulty, as if he had used up all his strength.

It turned out to be the case.

Bai Zhaoyun understood in his heart that it seemed that this Li San was not as simple as he seemed.

He smiled coldly and said, "You are quite clever. You can actually think of testing me in this way."

"No, no, I'm just trying to save my life." Li San said tremblingly.

"Save your life?" A cold light flashed in Bai Zhaoyun's eyes. "Do you think you can still save your life now?"

Upon hearing this, Li San's face turned pale. He knew that he was probably doomed today.

"Please spare my life, sir! I am willing to work like a slave for you, sir. Please spare my life!" Li San begged bitterly.

"Work like a slave?" Bai Zhaoyun sneered, "Do you think you are still qualified?"

Li San was suddenly speechless. He knew that he might not be able to escape today.

"Tell me, why did you want to kill Bai Yun?" Bai Zhaoyun asked with a cold tone.

When Li San heard this, his body trembled violently and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

"Sir, how...how do you know?" Li San asked tremblingly.

"Hmph, do you think you can hide it from me?" Bai Zhaoyun snorted coldly, and a powerful pressure instantly enveloped Li San.

Li San suddenly felt difficulty breathing, as if a mountain was pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" Li San could no longer bear the strong pressure and said quickly, "It's... the leader who told me to do this!"

"Three years ago, the master asked me to find out the news about Liuxi Village, and I have been searching secretly. One time, the leader was inspecting the branch hall and found me. He also used some secret soul method to spy on my memory and knew the existence of the master.

He seemed to be very interested in the master and wanted to remove the belief line on me, but he tried many times without success. The leader then really took notice of the master and taught me a set of secret methods, asking me to hypnotize myself every day to maintain my belief in the master, so that I would not collapse and die.

He also asked me to continue to hide and wait for the master to show up, and then secretly tell him the master's whereabouts. However, in the past three years, apart from asking me to find Liuxi Village, there has been no news from the master..." At the end, the man in black actually had a bit of grievance in his tone.

After listening to this, Bai Zhaoyun felt a chill on his back.

"The legendary leader who possesses the Three Life Spirit actually has such a method. It is really hard to guard against! He actually thought of using self-hypnosis to solve the collapse of the belief line. It is incredible!"

"So, the line of faith... could it be?!" Bai Zhaoyun had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he immediately thought of Nasus, as well as some terrifying possibilities.

He didn't dare to delay any longer, and knocked Li San unconscious quickly and efficiently, brought him into the Earthly Immortal Realm, and then appeared in front of the teleportation array of the Earthly Immortal Realm.
