Chapter 482: Two People (1/2)
Abject disbelief rocked the scene.
None of the dozen dao immortals present had reached origin dao realm, but most of them were arcane dao immortals, making them undisputed powerhouses in this world. However, none of them had seen what had happened! No one had sensed anyone approaching, either.
The Mo peerless immortal only managed to come to a bedraggled halt after flying out nearly ten kilometers. His left cheek was swollen and his teeth were knocked out. He spat out white teeth one after another, cutting a pitiful figure.
……
“Who was that?!” Scanning the surroundings with eagle eyes, the Donglin dao immortal’s consciousness swiftly spread out like mercury. When he caught sight of a faint figure in the sky, his pupils contracted violently.
“It’s you… How is this possible?!” he screamed.
Qing Yu’s Sidekick!
His presence, the ripples of his nascent spirit—everything about him was identical to the man with Qing Yu back in Destiny City, only he’d changed into black robes.
Jaws dropped and sharp gasps abounded. The real deal had shown up when the Mo immortal accused Lu Yun and Qing Han! Could it be that Lu Yun and Qing Han really weren’t the two shitstirrers?
However… the entire world of immortals was hunting down the pair. How dare Qing Yu’s Sidekick show his face here? Did he even know what death was?
All eyes were on him, and even Lu Shenhou’s expression turned grave. Qing Yu’s Sidekick had already entered Dusk Province, however, so the dao immortals didn’t dare follow him.
……
“Behold, for I am Xing Chen,” Xing Chen announced calmly from the sky. “Xing as in the character for Xing of the stars, Chen as in the character for Chen of the stars. I was just going to watch the show, but I didn’t expect there to be a traitor who’d forgotten his roots in the Mo Clan. Tsk tsk, that’s more than enough. I do have a bit of a relationship with the Mo Clan.”
The Mo peerless immortal turned pale, but thick confusion colored his gaze. He’d seen Qing Yu’s Sidekick call himself Lu Yun back in the Mo residence in Destiny City. Why would he show up at the same time as Lu Yun?
He was certain that the man before him was Qing Yu’s Sidekick, the very one he’d seen that day.
“Ha!” the Donglin dao immortal scoffed. “It’s just a trick with a replica… I’ll shatter your disguise!” He manifested a gleaming mirror as he spoke.
“No replica is perfect, and they’re never separate living beings. The flaw may be visible in the form of a damaged soul or a second nascent spirit! Do you think you can fool everyone with a fake, Lu Yun?!”
He lifted the mirror and aimed its iridescent light onto Xing Chen, making visible the young man’s nascent spirit, three ethereal soul-parts, and seven corporal soul-parts. Every curve of the soul’s grain and structure of his spirit was revealed for everyone to see.
This special treasure couldn’t remove disguises, but it could reveal nascent spirits and souls for what they were, fully piercing through replicas and foreign nascent spirits.
“Impossible!!” screamed the Donglin immortal. “This is completely impossible! You aren’t a replica, but a separate living entity?! Then… the Lu Yun in Dusk Province must be a replica!”
Upon shifting the mirror to Lu Yun, he stumbled backward and shot a look of disbelief at the Mo peerless immortal. Lu Yun was his own being, too, with a complete set of nascent spirit and soul-parts.
“No, that can’t be true! When I was in the Mo residence, I saw Xing Chen with my own eyes and heard him call himself Lu Yun!” The Mo peerless immortal couldn’t believe it either.
