Zou Tianjin was attacked between the night of October 3 and the early morning of October 4. On the morning of October 4, He Kao made the excuse of having family matters and flew back to Qi Yuan from Nanhua.
Now, a group of sorcerers has gathered in Nanhua to conduct an investigation. He Kao might attract soone’s attention, so staying there would be inconvenient. It’s better to return to Qi Yuan while the holiday hasn’t ended.
If mory serves correctly, this marks the anniversary of his becoming Hidden Moth. In the early morning of October 4, a year ago, Huang Xiaopang passed the identity of Hidden Moth to him, and now he is a Tier Four Scholar of the Hidden Moth Sect.
A Tier Four Sorcerer, in the Hidden Moth Sect called a Scholar, in the Qi Observation Sect called a Governnt Official, in the Observing Body Sect called a Physician, in the Micro Realm Sect called an Artisan, in the Xingshen Sect called Beggars, in the Heart Plate Sect called rchants, in the Alchemy Sect called Gardeners, in the Lingxi Sect called Divine Stick.
These nas sound like ordinary identities in the world, ant to remind these Magic Sect disciples not to beco arrogant after improving their cultivation, and not to forget their roots, as they are still ordinary mbers of the world.
The title Scholar perhaps ans that upon reaching this level of cultivation, one needs to observe more, think more, learn more, travel more, and research more, especially studying the characteristics of various techniques.
By noon that day, He Kao appeared in Chongchuan, wearing soone else’s face. This person truly existed; he was a cleaner under Bitter Tea, codenad "Big Cannon Platform," nad Feng Zilong.
Feng Zilong returned to the secret base, attempting to plot against Ye Liangcheng, but was countered by He Kao and Ye Liangcheng. Afterward, He Kao found Feng Zilong’s hideout and discovered his docunts and phone.
Besides He Kao and two other "Hidden Moth Sect disciples," no one knew Feng Zilong was dead, nor did anyone notice his disappearance.
After mastering a secret technique, Feng Zilong had been doing dirty work for Bitter Tea and occasionally did private jobs, committing more than enough cris for a death penalty several tis over. He had long severed ties with his family and moved very clandestinely.
No one knew his whereabouts or what he did; such a person’s disappearance would not arouse attention. Coincidentally, his physique was similar to He Kao’s, and his various docunts were complete, making him the perfect disguise object.
Lan Jiwan once disguised herself as another cleaner under Bitter Tea, Shang Yan, because Shang Yan’s build was similar to hers, and she also obtained Shang Yan’s passport and ID card.
Using her Tier Three Appraiser skills, Lan Jiwan created a mask that could easily deceive, akin to the human skin masks in novels. Although not made from human skin, when worn, it appeared as such, almost undetectable by ordinary people.
Despite the finesse of Lan Jiwan’s mask, it could still be exposed under a Divine Sense scan.
He Kao re-forged the Hidden Moth Gauze, and after wearing it, he transford into Feng Zilong’s likeness. Unless a master like Gu Chun deliberately used Divine Sense to probe closely, ordinary sorcerers, even high-tier sorcerers, would find it difficult to uncover.
Though magical treasures are not omnipotent, Gu Chun reminded him to master the Artifact Control Technique proficiently, avoiding noticeable divine power fluctuations whenever possible... and Hidden Moth Sect cultivators excel at concealing breath and stealth, as these are fundantal skills.
Following the address Gu Chun provided, He Kao arrived at a quick-service hotel and knocked on a room door on the third floor. It was rely polite; locks posed no challenge to him and could be opened directly with Divine Sense.
Gu Chun’s Divine Thought ca through: "Co in, open the door yourself."
He Kao pushed the door and entered. Gu Chun was sitting in a round chair, surprised, "The Hidden Moth Gauze is truly marvelous! Your disguise is such that even if I t you on the street, I might not notice."
He Kao: "I took your advice to heart and put in significant effort. As I appear now, I’m a cleaner under Bitter Tea, nad Feng Zilong..."
He Kao kept nothing secret from the elder, introducing Feng Zilong’s situation, then hesitated, "What’s that over there? It seems familiar."
The room had a large bed, a TV cabinet, a desk; by the window were two round chairs and a small table.
On the TV cabinet were small cards with photos and contact information of won—advertisent cards for door-to-door massages. Nearby were several small items, looking familiar, He Kao had previously dismantled similar ones in apartnts and old houses.
Gu Chun replied, "I just took down a miniature cara; this place is rather chaotic."
This quick-service hotel’s front desk displayed a three-star sign and also offered hourly rooms, located next to a technical institute, creating a sowhat disordered flow of people.
He Kao: "You’ve traveled the world, seen all kinds of places... what exactly happened yesterday?"
A Tier Six Cultivator is indeed extraordinary; explaining yesterday’s experience would take an average person considerable ti, but Gu Chun did it with just a Divine Thought.
He Kao paused, as if his CPU was processing at high speed, before speaking almost a minute later, "I was puzzled yesterday as to why only Gong Xiaodong, a steward, was responsible for the inquiry, without personal involvent from the Sect Law Hall Elders.
Turns out you were observing in secret all along, though no one knew... but how did you happen to appear in Chongchuan?"
Gu Chun: "Is it not normal not to know? Do I need to report and seek approval for my actions? If soone among them had an issue, wouldn’t the information leak?
When Fabian’s plan on Shi Yun Road failed, he insisted on involving Lu Shutang, which was suspicious. Steward Zou surely felt uneasy, so he and the Sect Law Hall’s investigation team ca to Chongchuan, which makes sense.
