Chapter 2283 Yun Fu Ye
“Did you really see the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion before?”
“Where did you see him? Do you have any clues? If you do, you can inform the Great Spirit Palace about it. They’ll definitely reward you handsomely!”
The other two patrolling disciples looked at Huang Zheng and questioned him one after another.
“I’ve seen the person in the image before, but...” One of the two disciples continued to speak before Huang Zheng could reply, “Are you sure you don’t have any clues about his whereabouts? It’s really too bad. It would be great if you have clues. Otherwise, there’s nothing we can do even if you’ve seen him before.”
Yes...” The other patrolling disciple nodded in agreement.
Huang Zheng seemed to have not heard the other two patrolling disciples’ words as he asked, “Do you think that two people with similar names and appearances exist in this world?”
One of the patrolling disciples asked in confusion, “Two people with similar names and appearances?”
“How’s it possible!” The other patrolling disciples replied, “There may be people with similar looks, and there must be more people with the same name... However, it’s extremely rare for two people to share the same name and look identical at the same time.”
“However, there’s a possibility the two are twins and they’re using the same name. Apart from this, I can’t think of a second possibility.” This patrolling disciple’s words sounded rational.
“What if the two people are a human and a Human-Devil respectively?” Huang Zheng asked with a wry smile on his face.
“A human and a Human-Devil? Huang Zheng, what are you trying to say?” The two patrolling disciples were baffled.
Suddenly, one of them seemed to have thought of something as his eyes widened in shock. He inhaled sharply and quickly turned to look at Huang Zheng. He asked, “Huang Zheng, the reason you’re asking all these questions... Could it be that our new Vice Palace Master who shares the same name with the Young Mansion Master look alike?”
“What?” The other patrolling disciple was stunned.
“Yes.” Huang Zheng nodded bitterly. “Both of you must have heard that I was there when our new Vice Palace Master killed Elder Lin Yuan. For this reason, I know what he looks like. His appearance is identical to the person in the portrait of the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion that you showed us earlier. It wouldn’t be alarming if they only look identical... The problem is that they share the same name as well!” Huang Zheng was bewildered.
“This...” The other two patrolling disciples were shocked. Not only did their new Vice Palace Master share the same name with the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, but they looked alike as well! This was too much of a coincidence!
After a while, the patrolling disciple who had the portrait said with conviction, “If this is not a coincidence... There’s only one possibility left... Our Vice Palace Master and the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion are the same person!”
“Our Vice Palace Master is the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion! He must have an ulterior motive for joining our Wandering Saint Palace!” The other patrolling disciple continued saying.
“If this is the case, doesn’t this mean the Wandering Saint Palace has a spy in its midst?” The patrolling disciple gasped as fear jolted his body.
“That’s possible!” Huang Zheng’s expression darkened and his eyes were narrowed as he said wryly, “What should we do now? Although it’s very likely he’s the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, he’s currently our Vice Palace Master. With just the three of us, I’m afraid no one will believe our words.”
“This concerns the safety of Wandering Saint Palace. We must inform someone of this or spread news of this even if it’s just the three of us!” The other patrolling disciple insisted.
The patrolling disciple said in support of his companion’s words, “Of course. We must inform someone about this! Hopefully, word about this will reach our Palace Master. Currently, it seems that only our Palace Master is capable of dealing with Vice Palace Master Duan!”
The three disciples discussed among themselves and agreed to inform someone about their discovery in hopes that it would reach the ears of the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace. After that, they quickly went to a place that was closest to the mansion of Yuwen Hao Chen, the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace. However, this place was not very close to Yuwen Hao Chen’s mansion. It was only the closest place that the three disciples had access to.
The three patrolling disciples were stopped by a patrolling elder as soon as they arrived. Naturally, the patrolling elder was familiar with the three patrolling disciples. He asked, “Huang Zheng, why did the three of you rush here?”
“Elder Hou Feng, we came to see Lord Palace Master because of an emergency!” Huang Zheng blurted out impatiently since he knew the importance of their discovery.
“Lord Palace Master is in closed-door cultivation...” The patrolling elder waved them away dismissively as he said with a frown, “Regardless of the emergency, come again after Lord Palace Master is out of closed-door cultivation!”
“Elder Hou Feng, this news concerns the safety of our Wandering Saint Palace. I must speak to the Palace Master as soon as possible!” Huang Zheng said impatiently since he was worried.
“It concerns the safety of our Wandering Saint Palace?” The patrolling elder from Wandering Saint Palace asked skeptically.
The two patrolling disciples who came with Huang Zheng chimed in one after another in support of Huang Zheng.
“Elder Hou Feng, Huang Zheng is not joking! The information he wants to convey to Lord Palace Master indeed concerns the safety of the Wandering Saint Palace!”
Yes, Elder Hou Feng. This incident must be dealt with properly!”
When the patrolling elder heard their words, he raised an eyebrow before he asked in a low voice, “What’s happening? If you don’t tell me about it, I can’t let you see Lord Palace Master and potentially disturb his cultivation. After all, I’ll be the one to bear the consequences if Lord Palace Master gets angry!”
“Elder Hou Feng, the news is...” Huang Zheng quickly revealed his discovery to the patrolling elder. He knew if he did not, he would not be able to alert the Palace Master.
At the same time, the other patrolling disciples took out Duan Ling Tian’s portrait.
The patrolling elder’s expression darkened now that he realized the severity of the matter. However, he still questioned the three patrolling disciples to be certain. “I saw this portrait a few days ago when I went out. I know rumor has it that it’s the portrait of the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion... However, are you certain our Vice Palace Master looks identical to the person in the portrait?”
“Elder Hou Feng, I was there two years ago when our new Vice Palace Master killed Elder Lin Yuan... I remember his appearance vividly, and he resembles the person in this portrait! If you don’t believe me, you can summon the others who were present at that time, such as Ding Jian Hong, to verify the matter. They’ve seen the Vice Palace Master as well. In fact, if you think that’s too troublesome, I’m willing to swear on the lightning penalty oath to prove that I’m not lying.” Huang Zheng was getting more worried and more impatient. As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly pricked his finger and swore on the lightning penalty oath. “I, Huang Zheng, willingly swear on the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation. I’m willing to be killed by the lightning penalty oath if I’m lying about the identical appearance of our Vice Palace Master Duan and the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion!”
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Nine claps of thunder that seemed capable of shaking heaven and earth sounded in accordance with the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation Oath as soon as Huang Zheng finished swearing.
Seeing that Huang Zheng was not killed by the lightning penalty, the patrolling elder finally believed Huang Zheng’s words.
Suddenly, a thunderous voice rang in the air, sending a jolt of fear to Hou Feng, the patrolling elder of Wandering Saint Palace. _’Who_s so bold as to swear on the lightning penalty oath here and disturb my master’s cultivation?!”
Swoosh!
A figure appeared like a gust of wind before the group of people as soon as the thunderous voice ceased talking. The figure belonged to a blue-clad young man. He was handsome, and his body was muscular. His aura completely suppressed Huang Zheng and the others.
“My Lord, Vice Palace Master!”
“My Lord, Vice Palace Master!”
When Hou Feng, Huang Zheng, and the others saw this man, they immediately bowed respectfully and greeted him.
“Who swore on the lightning penalty oath earlier?” The young man asked as he looked at the others pointedly, causing shivers to run up their spines.
However, they could not afford to be afraid at this important moment. This blue-clad young man was Yun Fu Ye, the first Vice Palace Master and the direct disciple of their Palace Master!
