"How could he have failed?"
Huang Liang couldn’t understand.
Even he wasn’t necessarily a match for Lu Yuanji.
Lu Yuanji’s talent for cultivation was greater than his own, and his foundation was quite profound. He was only a step away from Foundation Establishnt!
It wasn’t without reason that Lu Yuanji had been able to hold his position as the Big Master of Black Wind Mountain for so many years without a single mishap.
"Forget it. Since he failed, we’ll just have to try another way."
"Senior Brother, what way is that?"
Huang Feng asked hurriedly.
He had received news.
In a few days, Su Yuyan would be coming to Yellow Crane Immortal City again.
When that ti ca, he didn’t want Li Chang’an getting in his way.
Huang Liang slowly walked over, sat down in front of him, and said in a low voice, "Junior Brother, with our status, dealing with a re Loose Cultivator like Li Chang’an is actually quite easy."
"Senior Brother, you don’t want to use the Law Enforcers’ power again, do you?"
Huang Feng shook his head repeatedly. He was truly terrified of Pei Yingyao after their last encounter.
The fear of directly facing a Foundation Establishnt Great Cultivator was not sothing an ordinary person could understand.
Thinking of this, Huang Feng felt a little aggrieved.
Yellow Crane Immortal City was, after all, the territory of the Yellow Crane Mountain Lineage. It was his ho turf, yet he couldn’t even handle a minor Loose Cultivator like Li Chang’an.
"Ah, Junior Brother, you’re still too timid in the end."
Huang Liang sighed softly.
Then, he slapped his Storage Pouch.
A lifelike human skin imdiately appeared on the stone table in front of them.
"This is..."
Huang Feng’s face showed shock.
This was because...
...the human skin was, shockingly, a perfect likeness of Li Chang’an!
Huang Liang explained, "Although I didn’t think Lu Yuanji would fail, I had him create one of Li Chang’an’s skins for just in case. This skin was made in a hurry, so it isn’t perfect. It can only be used once."
At this point, he gave a faint smile.
He looked completely confident.
"Even if it’s only for one use, that’s enough!"
"Senior Brother, what do you plan to do with this skin?"
Huang Feng pressed him urgently.
He had a vague feeling that Huang Liang was about to do sothing big.
He heard Huang Liang laugh and say, "Junior Brother, this is your own affair. Your Senior Brother won’t do the dirty work for you. Just do as I say. As long as you’re bold enough, Li Chang’an is as good as dead!"
"Senior Brother, what if Junior Martial Uncle Pei..."
"Junior Brother!"
Huang Liang cut him off.
"I’ve told you, there’s no way Junior Martial Uncle Pei values Li Chang’an. At most, he earned a favor from her, and once it’s used, it’s gone!"
...
「One month later.」
That evening, Li Chang’an was in a dicinal bath, tempering his physique.
At the sa ti, he held a Jade Scroll, continuously studying the contents of the Spirit Doctor legacy.
’This Spirit Doctor legacy is only Tier One Top Grade, yet it has more content than a Tier Two Low Grade Talisman legacy. It’s so detailed, with records on how to treat injuries caused by every type of Demon Beast.’
Li Chang’an mused to himself. Being a Spirit Doctor was not easy; there was far too much to morize.
Fortunately, a Cultivator’s mory far surpassed that of a mortal.
If a mortal were to study this, they probably couldn’t finish it in a lifeti!
He was engrossed in his reading.
Suddenly,
a golden light flashed before his eyes.
[Divination has been refreshed]
[Today’s Divination: Neutral]
[Chu Xiong, a Foundation Establishnt Great Cultivator from the Yellow Crane Mountain Lineage, will suddenly show up at your door, claiming you killed his disciple. He will try to drag you to the Black Prison for interrogation. Fortunately, Pei Yingyao will intervene on your behalf, and the matter will conclude without any real danger.]
’Chu Xiong?’
Li Chang’an frowned and read the contents of the Divination again.
He knew of this person.
He was the twelfth disciple of Huang He Master, with an Early Stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivation.
Rumor had it that his talent was decent, but he was simple-minded, had a fiery temper, and often offended people.
Because of this, his reputation among the Foundation Establishnt Great Cultivators of the Yellow Crane Mountain Lineage was relatively poor.
’I’ve been focused on my self-cultivation and rarely even leave my ho. When could I have possibly killed his disciple?’
Li Chang’an was baffled.
He didn’t even know Chu Xiong’s disciple and had never crossed paths with him.
’It’s said he’s simple-minded. He’s most likely being used.’
Li Chang’an pondered for a mont and quickly thought of Huang Feng.
He knew very well.
After the incident at the restaurant, Huang Feng was bound to be resentful.
’He was severely injured by Elder Pei, so he probably doesn’t dare to openly use the power of the Law Enforcers against anymore. That ans he can only resort to other forces.’
Chu Xiong, who was simple-minded yet possessed Foundation Establishnt Power, was the perfect pawn.
However,
Li Chang’an was still a little confused.
How would Huang Feng manage to deceive Chu Xiong?
’Could it be that he learned a profound Disguise Technique and can impersonate ? Or perhaps... he has a false skin of ?’
Li Chang’an thought of the human skins in Lu Yuanji’s Storage Pouch.
Logically,
as long as soone had a portrait of him, making a false skin wouldn’t be difficult.
But, according to the records in the Skin Painting Technique legacy, creating a reusable false skin was an extrely ti-consuming process.
For this very reason,
Lu Yuanji’s Storage Pouch had only contained one reusable false skin; the rest were all real skins.
Judging by the tiline,
he wouldn’t have had enough ti to create a perfect false skin of Li Chang’an for the Huang brothers.
’Perhaps Huang Feng has a few single-use false skins.’
Li Chang’an pondered for a long ti and gradually drew closer to the truth of the matter.
Even a single-use false skin would look incredibly realistic and be difficult to see through.
As long as it was used properly,
it wouldn’t be hard to fool soone as simple-minded as Chu Xiong.
...
「The next morning.」
Outside the courtyard,
a man approached.
He was burly, with the build of a bear, and clad in heavy Armor. He looked like an upright Bear Demon, unbelievably stout.
It was none other than Huang He Master’s twelfth disciple, Chu Xiong!
At this mont,
his face was filled with fury, his eyes seed to spit fire as he stared intently at Li Chang’an’s residence.
’An Array?’
Chu Xiong could tell that Li Chang’an’s residence was protected by an Array.
According to the common knowledge of the Cultivation Immortality Realm,
one should never enter an Array lightly.
But in his current state of rage, he couldn’t be bothered with such things. He kicked the courtyard gate open and strode inside.
"Li Chang’an, get the hell out here!"
His voice was like thunder as he roared at the house.
A mont later,
the door to the house slowly opened.
Li Chang’an used an Illusion to form a body, while his real self remained hidden deep within the Array.
Then, with a puzzled expression, he walked out of the house and cupped his fists at Chu Xiong.
"Elder, are you looking for ?"
Before speaking, he had already crushed the Jade Token Pei Yingyao had given him.
At the sa ti, the Profound Water Turtle was in his Spirit Beast Bag, ready to strike.
’With the Profound Water Turtle’s current strength, holding its own against Chu Xiong won’t be a problem.’
Li Chang’an thought to himself, sizing up Chu Xiong.
He noticed
that the man’s appearance was rather strange.
His body was exceptionally muscular, but his head was pointed, making him look not quite human.
Li Chang’an couldn’t help but recall so rumors he had heard.
It was said
that when this man was young, he focused on Body Refinent but went down the wrong path. In his desperation to strengthen his physique, he consud many Spirit dicines with extre side effects.
This resulted in his body becoming much more muscular, but his mind was affected.
He beca simple-minded and easily angered.
Just then, Chu Xiong roared in anger, "Li Chang’an, you killed my disciple! Your cri is unforgivable! Co with to the Black Prison for interrogation now!"
