1455 Who Was The Traitor? 2 (1/2)

However, everyone here was an elite of Tianju Hall, and so it was unreasonable to quarantine them for a few days. Besides, no house was big enough to detain 22 people. The discipline elders looked at each other for a moment and found it difficult to deal with such a situation.

Gu Canmo made up his mind and said, ”Let's quarantine them in three groups and ask them to oversee each other. We will let them go as soon as we find the traitor.”

The face of the 22 suspects changed as soon as they heard what Gu Canmo had said.

Some of them retorted. ”Headmaster Gu, it is unfair to ask us to be quarantined together with the traitor. Are you planning to quarantine us forever if you are unable to find the traitor?”

Gu Canmo coldly said, ”No, the longest that I will quarantine you is only until Celestial Master Zuo is dead. However, we will have to quarantine all of you until that time comes.”

The people were getting increasingly dissatisfied. Everyone claimed that they were innocent. The situation was getting a bit out of control because everyone was getting very angry.

Gu Canmo also understood that most of the people here were innocent. However, it was a severe issue so he could not take the risk.

Gu Xijiu suddenly spoke just as he was about to order to bring these people away. ”Headmaster Gu, their argument is reasonable. We should not quarantine everyone just because of one traitor. I have an idea to find the traitor in one day. Furthermore, we won't have to quarantine everyone.”

The crowd opened their eyes and looked at her skeptically after she finished speaking.

Gu Xijiu patted her storage bag, and soon enough, a small little head showed up from the container. It was Lu Wu, and it looked somewhat blur. ”Master, do you need anything?”

Gu Xijiu touched its head. ”Come out and listen to me.”

Lu Wu suddenly awoke and immediately jumped out onto Gu Xijiu's shoulder, its nine tails swayed along. ”Yes, master!” It felt excited to be summoned.
