Reverend Nilei
Mu Yu’s appearance inundated Long Qingan with jubilance to the point that he snapped out of his bleary state and jumped up to salute the former. “Thank you for saving my life, Sir.”
“Lie back down,” Mu Yu urged. “You don’t need to exercise formalities with me. We’re not in a master and slave contract.”
“Master ordered me to help you, so there is nothing I will refuse to do.”
Zhuge Xiaosheng experienced, “Although I do not understand your reasons, I owe you my appreciation twice.”
“You need not thank me, Patriarch Zhuge. Your life is more important than mine.”
Voice low, Mu Yu questioned, “You still won’t reveal who your master is, will you?”
“Master said you will find out when the time is ripe. I am only responsible for carrying out orders. I cannot divulge what I do not have permission to bring up.”
“… You can’t go back to Martial Hill City anymore. How are you going to operate in your wounded state? Has your master provided you with any instructions?”
Long Qingan shook his head. “I do not know. Master gave me an ability to escape from Apotheosis Realm adepts; however, the ability has now malfunctioned since saving Patriarch Zhuge. I can only wait here for further instructions at this point.”“You’re going to wait for your death here?”
Long Qingan cast his eyes to the ground.
On one hand, Mu Yu could not bring himself to abandon someone who had helped him and Patriarch Zhuge. On the other hand, he did not like the risk of keeping somebody he did not know around him.
“How do you usually contact your master?”
“I receive orders that Master conjures in his mind and find out where to find him because we have a connected sense. In saying that, I can feel something severing our connection. Rather, you…” Long Qingan widened his eyes. “Sir, why do you have that aura?”
“What aura?”
“Sir, have you obtained Ghost Gate’s Walk-in Heart Switch?”
“How do you know? Are you with Ghost Gate?”
“No. If you intend to heal Eternally Youthful Ku Mu with it, you must not at all costs!”
Mu Yu seized Long Qingan’s collar violently. “Who are you?! Don’t test my patience! I’m not playing with you!”
Due to his injuries, Long Qingan struggled to withstand Mu Yu’s pressure. “You… cannot use Walk-in Heart… Switch… Or you will… regret it…”
“Telling me not to save him will be your biggest regret.”
“Sir, you can kill me if you wish. If you use it to heal Eternally Youthful Ku Mu, though, you will not like the results.”
“Explain yourself!”
“Because… Because…”
“Speak!”
“Because you will not want Eternally Youthful Ku Mu to be in the same state as Long Qingan.”
Gu Jiangyou flitted to Mu Yu, and his eyes became actively sharp as soon as he heard the voice. Like Gu Jiangyou, Mu Yu recoiled as he turned to the middle-aged man attired in a blue robe who suppressed his Apotheosis Realm energy.
“Tan Qingquan! Who exactly are you?!” blustered Mu Yu.
“I thought you’ve been searching for me,” responded Tan Qinguan.
“Y-you’re… Reverend Nilei?”
“Brother Ermao!” Qing Fan ran over to Mu Yu and Long Qingan. “Brother Ermao, don’t do this to Grandpa City Lord.”
“Grandpa City Lord?” Mu Yu released his hold on Long Qingan and screened the latter.
Long Qingan returned to Reverend Nilei’s side and knelt down. “Master.”
“Qing Fan, what did you call him?”
Qing Fan grabbed onto Long Qingan’s clothing. “He’s Grandpa City Lord of Eastern Desert City. Shifu saved him.”
“You are City Lord He Jinglong?” As Long Qingan kept his head down, Mu Yu turned to Tan Qingquan. “What is this about?”
Tan Qingquan looked down at Long Qingan. “Qing Fan is right. He is He Jinglong.”
“I need proof,” demanded Mu Yu.
Tan Qingquan pressed a hand onto Long Qingan’s forehead and then lifted it, pulling Long Qingan’s soul out of Tian Jiangcheng’s body. Indeed, the soul’s appearance was that of He Jinglong’s, except his soul had turned red, while his qi was identical to that of none other than Walk-in Heart Switch!
“You used Walk-in Heart Switch to control him?” Mu Yu aggressively asked.
“You should not blame Master, Master Mu Yu.”
“What’s the difference between this and being dead? I won’t let you live under someone’s control!”
“I’ll ask again: is that how you want Eternally Youthful Ku Mu to live?” Tan Qingquan repeated.
“What do you mean?”
“Souls under Walk-in Heart Switch’s control will become loyal slaves to the one who possesses Walk-in Heart Switch; they are essentially puppets. I never asked He Jinglong to prostrate himself before me; it’s all Walk-in Heart Genesis’ work. Not even I can do anything about it.” Tan Qingquan conjured lightning to his hand to return He Jinglong’s soul to Tian Jiancheng’s body.
He Jinglong doted on Qing Fan and held the boy’s hand, but he was subservient to Tan Qingquan, brimming with respect.
“If you use it on Eternally Youthful Ku Mu, he will take you as his master no matter what you do. Do you want him kneeling to you every time he sees you? Why do you think Ghost Gate is doing everything in their power to retrieve Walk-in Heart Switch? Bai Jie wants to merge the two parts so that he can utilise its full power to control the cultivation world. If he can control the world with it, he will have superior control over them than you have using Divine Soul Formation.”
