Chapter 2622
byUnder the eyes of everyone, Yang Kai’s appearance quickly underwent earth-shattering changes.”
Originally, he was quite handsome and dashing, with a refined and handsome appearance. But after being disguised by Shi Tianhe’s disguising technique, his appearance actually became extremely ordinary. An Ruoyun and the others all widened their eyes in surprise and marveled.
If this change hadn’t happened right under their noses, I’m afraid no one would dare to believe that such a simple disguising technique could achieve this level.
It was only half an hour before and after. Shi Tianhe finally wiped Yang Kai’s face, looked at it carefully, and nodded, saying, “Alright.”
She took a few steps back, and An Ruoyun and Ji Yao immediately came up and observed closely at close range. They were shocked to find that they couldn’t see any flaws. The ordinary-looking man in front of them seemed to have been born with this appearance.
The only thing that couldn’t be changed was Yang Kai’s ownsmell.
However, in the Qingzong, not many people had met him face to face. Feng Xuan and Yao Zhuo could be considered to have dealt with him directly. But as long as he didn’t reveal hissmell in front of them, presumably they wouldn’t find anything.
Bing Yun’s beautiful eyes shone brightly and said, “Amazing skills. Tianhe, your disguising technique is quite remarkable.”
Even she praised it like this, which shows how amazing Shi Tianhe’s skill is.
An Ruoyun wondered, “Tianhe, who did you learn this skill from? Does the Dong family in Taiping City have such means?”
Shi Tianhe is her disciple, but she has never taught Shi Tianhe these things. Obviously, she learned them after going to Taiping City. But a mere Dong family, what virtue and ability does it have to possess such a strange technique.
Shi Tianhe shook her head and said, “This disguise technique does not come from the Dong family. It was learned by the disciple from a strange person.”
“Strange person?” An Ruoyun was stunned when she heard it.
Shi Tianhe’s face showed a look of reminiscence and said, “That was almost sixty years ago. A beggar came to Taiping City. He was unkempt and despised by others. One day, he was beaten and injured and fell in front of the Dong family’s door. The disciple saw him when she came back from going out to handle affairs and asked someone to help him to the firewood room to settle down. Later, when he was leaving, he specifically came to look for the disciple and taught the disciple this disguise technique as a thank-you gift. The disciple didn’t take it seriously at that time. Later, when she was idle and bored and fiddling around, she found out the superiority of this disguise technique.”
“Beggar…” An Ruoyun and Ji Yao looked at each other and both felt quite incredible.
“That was no ordinary beggar. He should be a certain expert.” Bingyun’s beautiful eyes flashed. “Tianhe, you can get this opportunity. It is also a case of a good person getting a good reward and a stroke of good fortune.”
An Ruoyun and Ji Yao both nodded in succession.
If that person was really an ordinary beggar, how could he possess such a miraculous art of disguising? He was obviously some powerful expert playing tricks on life. Some powerful experts have such strange tempers. Instead of living a good life, they love to play the game of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger.
“What a pity…” Bing Yun sighed again.
“What is Master regretting?” An Ruoyun asked in confusion.
Bing Yun said, “That expert might have been looking for an heir to his mantle in this way. Unfortunately, Tian He might not have met his requirements, so he didn’t pass on his mantle. Instead, he just taught the art of disguising as a thank-you gift.”
An Ruoyun nodded in understanding and said, “It’s indeed a pity.”
If Shi Tianhe could really have obtained the inheritance of that expert’s mantle, perhaps he would be like Zi Yu now and already be at the Emperor Venerable Realm. The Dong family wouldn’t have suffered the disaster of being wiped out.
“That beggar… Was he born with a head and rat eyes and a mouth full of yellow teeth? Yang Kai listened for a while and suddenly asked beside them.
Shi Tianhe asked in surprise, “Does Uncle Yang know that expert?”
“Probably know!” Yang Kai nodded, with a black line on his face.
To be able to sublimate a simple art of disguising to such a level and being a beggar with a deer head and rat eyes Yang Kai already had an idea in his heart about who this person was.
Since this strange art originated from that person’s hands, it was reasonable to have such a miraculous effect.
Seeing that Yang Kai had no intention of elaborating on that strange person, Bing Yun didn’t ask either. She just nodded and said, “This disguise technique is indeed remarkable. Even this Palace, if not carefully examined, might be deceived.”
Yang Kai smiled and said, “Then this plan can be implemented.”
Bing Yun was still worried and said, “But there are powerful enemies outside like a forest. Once you fail, how will you escape? It would be better to let Tian He disguise this Palace, and this Palace will take action personally. There will be a greater chance of success.”
Yang Kai quickly shook his head and said, “This probably won’t work. Senior, you are a Third-Order Emperor Senior. If you really go to receive that Recruitment Order, I’m afraid you will immediately alarm Feng Xuan and Yao Zhuo. When the two of them come to investigate, you will surely be exposed. I’m different. I’m only a First-Order Emperor Senior. My cultivation is neither high nor low. Once I defect over there, not only will I be highly valued over there, but I won’t alarm too many people either. It’s just convenient to take action. Senior, don’t say anymore. This matter is settled like this. Don’t worry about my safety either. If things really can’t be done, I will immediately escape.”
Bing Yun sighed, knowing that Yang Kai had made up his mind and it was not good to persuade him anymore. She just said gratefully, “Then you must be careful above all else.”
Yang Kai nodded and said, “There is still one more thing that requires Senior’s help!”
“You say.”
“I need a large amount of Void Spirit Crystals. If there are Void Spirit Jades, that would be the best.”
“Alright.” Bing Yun nodded. “I’ll have someone check the storeroom right away. If there are any Void Spirit Crystals or Void Spirit Jades, they will all be brought to you.”
Whether it’s Void Spirit Crystals or Void Spirit Jades, they are both in high demand throughout the Star Boundary because these two things are the main materials for refining storage treasures. Space Rings and Space Bracelets are all refined from these two things.
Comparatively speaking, Void Spirit Jade is one level higher in grade than Void Spirit Crystal.
Although Bing Yun didn’t know what Yang Kai wanted the Void Spirit Crystals and Void Spirit Jades for, she didn’t ask too many questions and just readily agreed.
“Tian He, help Shishu Ji Yao with her disguise as well.” Yang Kai said to Shi Tian He, and then turned to Ji Yao and said, “Junior Sister Yao, I’ll go prepare first. We’ll set off in the evening.”
Ji Yao took a look at him, didn’t suspect anything, and nodded slightly.
With a flash of his figure, Yang Kai immediately left the great hall.
After leaving the great hall, he didn’t return to his small courtyard but instead rushed directly out of Ice Heart Valley.
Before long, he arrived at the edge of the protective sect formation, which was exactly the place where he and Ji Yao had entered together before.
“Who goes there!” As soon as Zhangsun Ying, who was guarding here, saw Yang Kai’s arrival, she immediately rushed out from the hidden place, staring at Yang Kai with a cold expression. The other disciples also rushed out in unison, surrounding Yang Kai tightly.”
“Junior Sister Zhangsun!” Yang Kai grinned at Zhangsun Ying. “It’s me. Don’t be nervous.”
“You… are you Senior Brother Yang?” Zhangsun Ying’s beautiful brows furrowed slightly, and she said in surprise, “Why have you changed like this?”
Just now, she suddenly saw a strange man appear here and was really shocked. She thought that the protective formation of Bingxin Valley had been broken, otherwise, how could such a loophole occur?
But now, upon hearing the voice, Zhangsun Ying knew that the person in front of her was Yang Kai, but his face had changed so much that she didn’t dare to recognize him.
“I was ordered by Senior Bingyun to go out and do something. Please open the formation for a moment.” Yang Kai pointed to the formation and said.
“Alright, wait a moment!” Zhangsun Ying didn’t decline, nor did she go to verify with Bingyun, because Bingyun had previously said that Yang Kai was a friend of Bingxin Valley, and all his requests should be complied with without the need for reporting.
As she spoke, she took out a token and held it in her hand. She carefully observed the situation outside and, after confirming that there was no one nearby, she shook the token slightly at the light curtain of the formation.
A mysterious light shot out, and the tightly closed formation immediately split open a crack.
Yang Kai’s figure flickered and he exited the formation. At the same time, he transmitted a voice and said, “It will take at least two or three days, and at most five or six days. I will definitely come back. When the time comes, I will have to trouble Junior Sister Zhangsun to open the formation and respond to me again.
“No problem!” Changsun Ying quickly responded. After confirming that Yang Kai had left, she then closed the formation.
“What is this Uncle Yang going out for now? And he even disguised himself like that.” Yu Dan stepped forward and asked curiously.
Changsun Ying shook her head and said, “I will report to the Sect Master.”
Previously, when Yang Kai wanted to leave, she didn’t report and verify because Bing Yun had given an order before. Now that Yang Kai has left, it is necessary to inform Bing Yun.
She immediately took out the messaging compass and infused her divine sense into it.
In the main hall, Bing Yun quickly noticed and took out her own messaging compass. After seeing the message inside, she couldn’t help but wryly smile.
Below, Ji Yao was still sitting there being disguised by Shi Tianhe, waiting for nightfall to go to Binglun City with Yang Kai to receive the recruitment order. She didn’t expect that Yang Kai would actually leave her aside and act alone.
This made Bing Yun not know how to explain this matter to Ji Yao. But she also saw that Yang Kai did this on purpose. She didn’t know what exactly happened between her third disciple and Yang Kai, making Yang Kai seem to avoid her.
……
Binglun City was originally the foundation of Bingxin Valley and also the hub for Bingxin Valley to exchange materials with the outside world and collect various information. Most of the industries in the city were owned by Bingxin Valley.
But since half a year ago, not a single Bingxin Valley disciple could be seen in this Binglun City anymore.
The Wenqing Sect arrived here with their invincible strength, seized the Icewheel City, and used it as a stronghold to widely recruit talents, eyeing the Bingxin Valley. They were just waiting for the opportunity to be ripe to deal a fatal blow to the Bingxin Valley and completely wipe it out.
The more than half of the industries in the city that belonged to the Bingxin Valley were now in a mess. The supplies inside had long been looted, and most of the shops had become ruins.
At this moment, in front of a great hall in the Icewheel City, there was a horizontal plaque with three big characters written on it.
Recruitment Hall!
This was exactly the place where the Wenqing Sect recruited talents.
Since the Wenqing Sect issued the recruitment order and promised countless benefits, quite a few martial artists had come to offer their services. Otherwise, even a top-notch force like the Wenqing Sect couldn’t have gathered one hundred thousand people.
Among these people, there were no shortage of Emperor Jing martial artists who lacked cultivation resources or had ulterior motives. They were moved by the various benefits promised by the Wenqing Sect and stayed here to serve them.
