Chapter 90 – True or false, let's meet by chance
Su Yun had just cut Jiao Shu'Ao's Dragon Tooth Sword in half when suddenly a series of divine abilities attacked him from below, causing him to panic.
"I've been discovered by the Tong Family! If I stay in the air, I'll become the target of the calamity dust monsters, and everyone will be after me!"
He quickly made a decision, grabbed the Immortal Rope, which immediately retracted, and threw the small wooden bell into the air. The bell spun and each layer of markings expanded outward, transforming into thirty-six suns and moons that flew around him, smashing every incoming divine ability.
He was using martial arts, not divine abilities, so he was struggling against the spiritualists' powers. However, with the help of the wooden box, he became exceptionally powerful!
"A disciple of a saint?"
The people in the city exclaimed in shock, recognizing the Sun and Moon Stacking Breathing Technique: "He's from Bai Yuelou! Is Bai Yuelou here because the saint wants to investigate my Tong Family?"
Su Yun took advantage of the chaos and fell into the city, sliding down a hill of calamity dust and landing on a long street that had been cleared.
Behind him, the small wooden bell flew over, followed by thirty-six suns and moons, which merged into thirty-six markings and blended into the bell's markings.
Su Yun raised his palm, and the wooden bell turned into a wooden block, falling into his hand. The block then disintegrated into countless tiny particles that flowed along his arm and turned into a small golden dragon that coiled around his body.
He dissipated the bloodthirsty aura and the calamity dust that had been created by the calamity dust monsters instantly fell to the ground, forming a pile.
Su Yun grabbed a few handfuls of the calamity dust and filled his sleeves, then spread some on his face.
In the shadows of the street, the miners hid motionlessly.
Jiao Shu'Ao only wanted to distract the Tong Family's spiritualists. He released only a few calamity dust monsters, and some of the Tong Family's spiritualists and students from the Shuofang Academy were already guarding the mine entrance. Escaping with the calamity dust monsters would only cause unnecessary trouble.
The city was in chaos, and Wu Tong and Jiao Shu'Ao quickly headed towards the center of the city, to the calamity dust mountain.
Jiao Shu'Ao had forged another Dragon Tooth Sword and was flying low to the ground, quietly stabbing the Tong Family's spiritualists, injuring them but not killing them.
He did this to make other Tong Family spiritualists stay behind to take care of the wounded. The more wounded there were, the fewer Tong Family members would be able to fight.
"Is the newcomer a disciple of a saint? Could it be from Bai Yuelou?"
Tong Qingluo heard the report and his face changed drastically: "Bai Yuelou doesn't have that kind of strength, it's probably another disciple of the saint! Their goal isn't the calamity dust monsters, but the treasure in the calamity dust mountain! Leave some people to deal with the calamity dust monsters, and the rest of us will go to the central hall of the calamity dust mountain immediately!"
Many spiritualists and students from the Shuofang Academy followed him and rushed towards the calamity dust mountain.
Tong Qingluo's face was grim, and he sneered: "They want to take our Tong Family's treasure, they're underestimating us! Even if a saint came, they wouldn't be able to take our treasure!"Su Yun came to the Central Avenue, a street opened up by the miners of the Hekui Factory leading to the Hekui Mountain. At the other end of the street was the Hekui Mountain, while on this end were giant copper pillars, with an ancient palace in the center of each pillar. The palace was almost buried by the Hekui, and had turned black.
Before Su Yun could approach, he felt terrifying heat waves emanating from the palace of the previous world, and could vaguely see flames inside.
A voice came from behind him, saying leisurely, "That's the Hekui, the ashes of elemental energy that have not yet burned out from the previous world's destruction."
Su Yun turned around and saw a middle-aged miner carrying an iron pickaxe walking towards him, saying as he walked, "In the previous world, there must have been extremely powerful spiritualists with abundant elemental energy and profound cultivation who suffered during the catastrophe. Their flesh was burned, and their blood and energy settled, turning into Hekui."
Su Yun squinted at the middle-aged miner and looked him over.
Many miners were monsters from the countryside, with few city dwellers among them. This middle-aged miner did not appear to be any different from the other miners, but his speech was extraordinary, arousing Su Yun's alertness.
"I have observed the various sculptures and engravings in the Hekui City, and therefore have some understanding of the civilization of the previous world. They were living beings with bones growing outside, similar to insects, with a hard shell and organs inside the bones."
The middle-aged miner gazed at the Hekui fire in the palace and said softly, "There were also extremely powerful beings among them, whose status was equivalent to that of gods, ruling over the people of that era. Their gods lived in palaces like this, and I speculate that when the catastrophe came, they used these palaces to resist it."
The middle-aged miner came to Su Yun's side and said, "When the world was destroyed, some of the gods of the previous world sealed themselves during the interval when the world turned into Hekui, and fell into a false death. Until now, the Hekui is still burning, but they have not been burned to death, indicating that they are extremely strong."
Su Yun asked curiously, "Then why did the Tong family dig them out?"
The middle-aged miner did not answer him, continuing, "If this gateway is opened, the Hekui fire will be extinguished and cooled, solidifying. The gods of the previous world will be sealed in the Hekui, and as long as they do not encounter air, they will not need to worry. But once they encounter air, they will revive and start eating people, taking their blood and flesh! In a palace like this, there are over a hundred gods!"
Su Yun shivered.
"The mine has experienced more than ten Hekui monster riots, most of which were minor and only a few miners died. The strength of the Hekui monsters is equivalent to that of spiritualists in the Yulin and Yuandong realms because they eat few people. Only once, the Hekui monster escaped to the city and went on a killing spree, eating many people. That time..."
The miner's face was expressionless as he said, "The strength of the Hekui monster reached the level of the four deputy rectors of the Four Great Academies! The Four Great Academies' deputy rectors are in the Tianxiang realm, with god-like strength!"
Su Yun couldn't help but ask in a deep voice, "You know so many secrets that others don't know, you are definitely not an ordinary miner! Who are you?"The miner sighed and turned around. "A scholar with the Heavenly Dao Order is not an ordinary scholar, and I am certainly not an ordinary miner."
Su Yun's heart suddenly skipped a beat. "Who are you?"
The middle-aged miner smiled slightly. "I don't quite understand why the Emperor sent me here as a messenger and then sent another undercover agent."
Su Yun's heart raced, and blood rushed to his head.
This seemingly ordinary middle-aged miner was actually the Emperor's envoy, the real one!
"But you're too impatient. After winning the top spot in the exam, you got close to Qiu Shuijing, who came from the capital and used to be the Emperor's teacher. Getting close to him will only arouse suspicion and offend the Emperor!"
The miner said, "Besides, Qiu Shuijing was dismissed by the Emperor. Getting close to him would be a mistake that would raise suspicion and offend the Emperor."
Su Yun tried to calm himself down, so as not to reveal his true identity. After all, he still had to use the envoy's identity to attend school in the city.
"But after I figured out the trick, I realized how deep your scheming is."
The miner's tone changed, and he showed admiration. "By doing this, you have actually washed away your own suspicions, because a real envoy from the capital would never do this! You have avoided the slaughter of the experts in the Yuan Dong or even Tian Xiang realm. You are truly cunning!"
Su Yun was confused. He had just exposed himself a moment ago, how could he be so cunning now?
"He is indeed very cunning and unfathomable."
Wu Tong's voice came, and Su Yun and the miner turned to see Wu Tong and Jiao Shu'Ao walking towards them.
"I have experienced this before. Besides being extremely cunning, his background is also terrifyingly strong!"
Wu Tong glanced at the miner, seemingly able to see through his true identity, and said coldly, "Compared to him, you are much inferior. Your spells are like fireflies in front of me. Do you still want to hide your true identity?"
Su Yun was surprised. "Isn't this envoy using his own body to come here? Then who is this miner?"
Wu Tong looked up, her face cold and emotionless, and said softly, "You are right above us now. Your true body is in Shuofang City, and you are controlling this miner's every move, even his words and actions!"
Su Yun's heart skipped a beat. This kind of spell was rare.
At this moment, the envoy must be walking on the streets of Shuofang, making the same movements and saying the same words as this middle-aged miner. This must look very strange to others!
Compared to Wu Tong's spell, this spell was indeed inferior. Wu Tong could control others without leaving a trace, but this one left a trace.
If they really wanted to investigate him, they could use this clue to find out his true identity!The miner's eye twitched as he took a deep look at the girl Wu Tong and stopped talking.
He was afraid that if he said a few more words, the woman named Wu Tong would guess his background!
If his identity was exposed, he would undoubtedly die. He did not have the same background and support as Su Yun!
Wu Tong glanced at Su Yun again and asked, "I can deceive everyone and make them unable to see my true appearance. How did you see my true appearance?"
Su Yun was puzzled and asked the middle-aged miner, "What does she look like in your eyes?"
The middle-aged miner tried not to say too much and said, "Fat, short, black, and strong!"
Su Yun frowned and continued to ask, "What does the other person in your eyes look like?"
He was referring to Jiao Shu'Ao, who was known for his gluttony in the village.
The middle-aged miner said, "Ugly, skinny, weak, and poor."
Su Yun thought for a moment. What he saw was completely different from what the middle-aged miner described. He saw the true appearance of Wu Tong and Jiao Shu'Ao, and Wu Tong did not affect his eyesight.
Moreover, on the day of the big exam, Su Yun accidentally saw Wu Tong wearing a red dress standing on top of the dragon's head.
Wu Tong could influence everyone except for his eyes!
"Is it because of the imprint of the immortal sword in my eyes, or is it because of the eight-sided celestial gate?" he was puzzled.
Wu Tong looked at him again, feeling wary of him. She rarely suffered losses, but she was sealed in the Dragon Tomb by the leader Xue Ge.
The second time she suffered a loss was when she fell into Su Yun's hands and was almost killed by Su Yun's sword.
If it weren't for the critical moment when she was sent out of the Ten Splendid Picture by Zuo Songyan, she would have died at Su Yun's hands!
Su Yun seemed to be able to anticipate her every move. Earlier, during the beast hunt, Su Yun invited another dragon girl, Chi Xiaoyao, to confront Jiao Shu'Ao, making her unable to attack Su Yun.
Now, Su Yun had even arrived here before her, as if he had been waiting for her!
Moreover, there was a mysterious envoy by Su Yun's side!
What was even more terrifying was that she found that Su Yun could see through her true form!
This step-by-step plan was so meticulous that it made her shudder, feeling like she was caught in Su Yun's palm and couldn't escape.
"But soon, I will enter the realm of Yung Ling. Once I enter the realm of Yung Ling, he will not be my opponent, and I don't need to use Jiao Shu'Ao's hand. I can get rid of him on my own!" she thought to herself.
"This terrifying person must be eliminated early, otherwise, if he grows up..." she shuddered, recalling another face, a person who even scared her as a demon.
The middle-aged miner secretly glanced at Su Yun and felt a chill in his heart. "The emperor asked me to investigate Shuofang, but I haven't made any progress these days. The emperor sent another envoy without notifying me. Does he doubt my loyalty? Does the emperor think that this newcomer from the Tian Dao Academy can defeat me?"Zhaizhu: Zhaizhu now has an account on Bilibili, everyone can follow me, Zhaizhu01. Live room number: 21778395.
