Chapter 395 - Infiltration (2/2)
But no matter what, the four strings of D Major, E Major, G Major, and A Major were still missing before Evernight could return to Fuxi Zither. Thinking of this, Xiao Chen felt more or less relieved, Su Lianyue beside him saw that he was having a good mood, she smiled and said, “This zither is so exquisite, I see you already have the strings.”
Xiao Chen nodded and said, “Yeah, it’s a gift from an old friend.”
“To be able to gift such a zither to you, presumably that old friend of yours must be an extraordinary person.” Su Lianyue’s eyes stayed on his face and did not even blink once.
Xiao Chen sighed and looked up at the bright moon in the sky. Where is Master now… Wrong! The way Su Lianyue asked was a little strange, and he immediately responded, smiled and said, “I mean the strings are a gift from an old friend.”
Su Lianyue smiled and turned to look at the valley earlier, “In four more hours, the sky should be bright…”
The moment passed, and after four hours, the sky gradually became clear blue, and there was only shadow of the moon on the West Mountain. After a while, the sky was completely bright, and the birdsongs gradually sounded from the surrounding, finally adding a touch of liveliness to this dead silent hill.
Xiao Chen and Su Lianyue stood on the top of the cliff and looked at the valley of last night. There was a faint shadow at the entrance of the valley, the Corpse Refinery Sect had indeed came to collect corpses. They looked at each other and drifted to the bottom of the cliff along with the wind.
Nearly 30 people were collecting corpses in the valley. The two were worried about alarming those people and did not enter. Instead, they hid in a dense wood outside the valley. There were also a dozen dead bodies lying in the woods. Someone should be collecting the bodies in a while.
After a while, footsteps could be heard from a distance. By listening to the sound, there should be 2 people. The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and then a complaining voice sounded, “We have collected quite a number of bodies the past few months, but I didn’t see any benefit from Elder Xu. I am afraid that he had kept most of these corpses for himself.”
Another person sighed, “Who in the sect did not come around like this? Sigh, Shen Qing was still taking care of us a few years ago, but since last month, he seems to have become a different person. When he sees us, he doesn’t even bother anymore.”
“Well, after all, he promoted to Class B disciple a few months ago, and naturally he wants to draw a clear line with us.”
Under the cover of the branches, two men could be seen walking towards the woods. Both of them were wearing blue and white student coats, and their faces were clean and white. They were not as lifeless as some other people in the Corpse Refinery Sect, they looked like the students in the town. Xiao Chen’s gaze was fixed. These two were exactly the two men he saw that night.
When they entered the woods, they gathered the corpses on the ground and complained, “Without strength, everything is the same everywhere. I thought it would be better to enter the Corpse Refinery Sect, but I was bullied everywhere! I still have to smile after being beaten!”
The two men chattered as they cleaned up more than a dozen corpses on the ground. Xiao Chen and Su Lianyue glanced at each other in the dark, and the two of them moved in front of the two men instantly.
“Who…” Before the words of the two Corpse Refinery Sect disciples were spoken, the mist of purple incense made them fainted. Xiao Chen quickly dragged the two into a dark cave. He could not kill these two yet because the disciples of the Corpse Refinery Sect would have left their Soul’s Life Source in the sect. Once they died outside, the people inside would know immediately.
Now what Xiao Chen and the two had to do is to change into the appearance of these two people and sneak into the Corpse Refinery Sect. Su Lianyue glanced at the two people on the ground and picked the one with a relatively small figure. With two fingers, she pierced a thin white radiance into the eyebrow of the man, which was the mystic arts of her Fort Raksasa, it could read partial memories in the person’s head.
Xiao Chen did not delay either and immediately pierced a white radiance into the eyebrows of the other person. Both of them had Nascent Soul Realm cultivation. The two on the ground were just Foundation Building Realm, it was very easy to explore the memories in their head.
After a while, Xiao Chen discovered that the two were a pair of brothers. The elder one was Han Yun and the younger brother was Han Yu. The two were ordinary people staying in a remote town in the East Continent with their parents. The brothers were young and vivacious and offended the rich man in the town. The rich man bought through the local official and framed his family, forcing the father and mother of these two brothers to death.
The two brothers fled in the rainy night and when they reached Miasma Mountain Range, they happened to meet a person named Shen Qing from the Corpse Refinery Sect, and was led into the sect by Shen Qing, and practiced hard from then onwards. The two brothers entered the Foundation Building Realm last year, so they quietly brought a copper Corpse back and wiped off the rich man’s family, and also killed the official officer’s family too till the blood flowed like a river, and nothing stayed alive…
Xiao Chen frowned. Most of the disciples the Corpse Refinery Sect took in were usually such people full of resentment. Such people had dense Rancorous Qi. After a while, he disguised himself into the elder brother, Han Yun, and Su Qingyue used her mystic arts of Fort Raksasa to directly transformed into the appearance of the younger brother, Han Yu instead.
After they were done, Xiao Chen took the duo’s corpse bag and the jade identity card. Finally, Su Lianyue added a fragrance to the two, and Xiao Chen sealed the two with The Roar of Ice Dragon Spirit to ensure everything was foolproof.
“Unfortunately, these two are ordinary disciples. They don’t know the high-level secrets of the Corpse Refinery Sect. Otherwise, we don’t have to be so troublesome.”
After speaking, the two immediately rushed towards the valley, so as not to cause other people to suspect anything for taking too long. When they arrived in the valley, the bodies that had covered the ground last night were gone, and about 30 people gathered in the southeast direction. Except for the leader who was in Core Forming Realm cultivation, the rest were still in the Foundation Building Realm.
When he saw “Han Yun and Han Yu” walking over slowly, the leader was impatient, he frowned and said, “You two have been away for a long time, what are you still dilly-dallying now!”
Xiao Chen pressed his throat with True Qi, and lowered his voice, “Sorry, I have made Senior Brother wait a long time.” After he finished speaking, he trotted up with Su Lianyue.
Xiao Chen’s Magic Mimicry looked very real and Su Lianyue’s transformation technique was unique. Naturally, this group of people could not tell that they were fake. The leading Core Forming Realm cultivator frowned and said, “Hurry up, don’t dilly-dally, tonight we still have a big event! If we’re late, you’re going to lose your heads! ”
