“Bloody hell!”
Long Brow True Person was stunned. He hurried over to Ye Qiu and asked, “Why did you kill them?”
“What else?” Ye Qiu replied. “Leave them to slack off?”
Long Brow True Person was speechless.
“They are enemies anyway. What use is there in keeping them?” Ye Qiu said.
Long Brow True Person said, “This fellow was a talent. It is a pity to kill him, but since they are dead, so be it.”
“There are two of them. Perfect. We can strip their clothes and impersonate Butian Sect disciples.”
He was about to act.
Ye Qiu stopped him. “No need.”
“Why?” Long Brow True Person did not understand.
Ye Qiu explained, “These two have low status in the Butian Sect, and there are many Butian Sect disciples who entered here. Someone is bound to know them well. Impersonating them would be easy to expose.”
Long Brow True Person listened and agreed it made sense. He asked, “Little brat, what do you plan to do then?”
Ye Qiu said, “We must impersonate people we are familiar with.”
Long Brow True Person immediately understood Ye Qiu’s intention. “Little brat, you mean to impersonate people from the Yin-Yang Sect?”
“Yes.” Ye Qiu nodded.
Long Brow True Person said, “The Yin-Yang Sect people we know are only a few. Who do you want to impersonate?”
“Yun Jie?”
“Tang Ye?”
“Or Song Que, or Su Wuming?”
To his surprise, Ye Qiu shook his head again.
“Yun Jie and Tang Ye are Holy Sons. Song Que and Su Wuming are Divine Sons. Their status in the Yin-Yang Sect is not low, and they are very likely familiar with Qi Tian.”
“Moreover, the matter of me impersonating Song Que has already been discovered by Wuji Heavenly Venerable. He may have notified the Yin-Yang Sect disciples to be on guard.”
“Also, those fellows are all dead. As the First Divine Son of the Yin-Yang Sect, Qi Tian may already know.”
“Impersonating them would most likely backfire.”
Long Brow True Person frowned. “I really cannot think who else we could impersonate if not them.”
Ye Qiu smiled faintly. “Old fellow, we still have one old friend. Have you forgotten?”
Old friend?
Long Brow True Person was first taken aback, then his eyes widened. “Little brat, you cannot mean Dragon Bodhisattva?”
“Exactly him,” Ye Qiu said. “We once impersonated him to do some things and even met him in person, so we are somewhat familiar with him. Moreover, he is now a disciple of Wuji Heavenly Venerable, so he should still carry some weight in the Yin-Yang Sect. Impersonating him is relatively safe.”
After Ye Qiu finished, he saw Long Brow True Person looking at him with a strange expression. “Old fellow, what is that look for?”
Long Brow True Person said, “Little brat, there is something I am not sure if I should say.”
Ye Qiu replied, “Say it.”
“You are a real bastard,” Long Brow True Person laughed heartily. “But I think your idea is good.”
“I just wonder if, when Dragon Bodhisattva learns of this, he will be angry enough to want to kill you.”
Ye Qiu said, “Do you think he does not want to kill me now?”
“This is a perfect opportunity to make use of Dragon Bodhisattva again.”
“If Wuji Heavenly Venerable learns that I impersonated Dragon Bodhisattva and killed Qi Tian, he might, in a fit of rage, take it out on Dragon Bodhisattva.”
Action speaks louder than words.
Ye Qiu immediately took out a disguise pill, swallowed it, then rubbed his face a few times. Soon, his appearance changed to that of Dragon Bodhisattva.
Then he took out two sets of Yin-Yang Sect disciple robes from his Qiankun bag.
These were collected deliberately when he killed those city lords, in case of need. He had not expected they would come in handy so soon.
“Bloody hell, you even have the clothes. Looks like you planned this long ago.”
Long Brow True Person took the robes and asked, “Little brat, you are impersonating Dragon Bodhisattva. Who am I to impersonate?”
Ye Qiu said while changing clothes, “You impersonate Dragon Bodhisattva’s servant.”
Long Brow True Person curled his lip. “Is he worthy?”
“It is only impersonation. Why fuss?” Ye Qiu said. “Besides, you do look the part.”
Damn, that was a killing blow to the heart.
Long Brow True Person glared angrily at Ye Qiu, quickly changed clothes, and swallowed a disguise pill.
In an instant, his appearance became aged. He hunched his back, kept his head low, looking very much like a servant.
“Little brat, do I look convincing?” Long Brow True Person asked proudly.
Ye Qiu nodded. “Convincing. Extremely convincing.”
“Hehe…” Long Brow True Person’s face bloomed with a wide smile, like a chrysanthemum. Before his joy faded, he heard Ye Qiu add, “Playing your true self. Truly remarkable.”
Bastard!
Long Brow True Person was so angry his nose nearly went crooked.
“Alright, just a joke. No need to be angry,” Ye Qiu said. “Everything is ready. Now we can do great things.”
“Wait.” Long Brow True Person quickly picked up the spiritual wine from the grass, took several gulps, then searched the two Butian Sect disciples’ corpses. He found two spatial rings, swept them with divine sense, and cursed, “Poor bastards.”
Then he pocketed the two spatial rings.
“Little brat, let’s go find treasures.” Long Brow True Person started walking.
“Stop!” Ye Qiu called.
“What?” Long Brow True Person turned back to look at Ye Qiu.
“Do not forget your identity,” Ye Qiu reminded. “You are now my servant. Since when does a servant walk ahead of his master?”
“You bloody… you are doing this on purpose to annoy me, aren’t you?” Long Brow True Person was very unhappy.
Ye Qiu said coldly, “Old fellow, curse one more time and see. Believe me, I will sort you out right now.”
Long Brow True Person shrank his neck in fright, quickly moved behind Ye Qiu, lowered his eyes submissively, and said ingratiatingly, “Little brat, I was only joking. Do not take it seriously.”
“I will walk behind you.”
“Whatever you need, just command me.”
Hmph.
Ye Qiu gave a cold snort and strode forward.
Not long after.
Ye Qiu stopped and said in a low voice, “Someone is there.”
Long Brow True Person craned his neck to look ahead. “Disciples from the Desolate Ancient Sacred Ground.”
In the woods ahead, more than a dozen Desolate Ancient Sacred Ground disciples sat in a circle, cross-legged.
Long Brow True Person noticed that in the very centre of their circle was a smooth stone, and on the stone grew a peculiar herb.
The herb resembled a lotus flower. It had nine leaves in total, each about half a metre long, like pale golden threads, emitting a faint golden light. Growing on the bare stone, it was extremely eye-catching.
“It looks like a spiritual herb,” Long Brow True Person said.
A sharp glint appeared in Ye Qiu’s eyes. He shook his head. “Not a spiritual herb, but a divine medicine.”
“Divine medicine?” Long Brow True Person was shocked.
Ye Qiu said, “Old fellow, have you not noticed? Those dozen-plus Desolate Ancient Sacred Ground disciples range from early Nascent Soul at the weakest to peak Nascent Soul at the strongest. How could a mere spiritual herb require so many of them to guard it?”
“This divine medicine is about to mature.”
Long Brow True Person grew excited. “Little brat, what exactly is this divine medicine?”
Ye Qiu uttered four words.
“Undying Divine Medicine!”
