"How did you know the three from the Ember Palm Pavilion betrayed you anyway?", Wei Yuanjie chuckled as he entered the room in the inn he stayed in, plopping on the sofa with a satisfied sigh of having done a good job.
It was obvious that Lu Bihai and the Elders of the Sect activated the Protective Formation when they talked about conspiring, and the Formations that the Martial Alliance installed in that room were even better than what Wei Yuanjie saw in many places at the Imperial Palace - part of their delegation here were Symbol Arts Masters of the Martial Alliance after all.
Not to mention that Wu Long only just came out of seclusion when the Ember Palm Pavilion finally solidified their resolve enough to approach Lu Bihai, so it was unlikely that he spied on them personally. And the 9th prince had a hard time believing there were many people who had Wu Long's unconventional skills and abilities to be able to spy through such powerful formations with ease.
