Chapter 40.2: Who are you, handsome?
Devil Venerable Also Wants to Know
He suddenly thought of Wen Renhe and Baili Qingmiao, during his second meeting with Wen Renhe he said that some heavenly treasures were predestined for her so he needed her for treasure hunting.
Could it be that Wen Renhe had already discovered this special feature of Baili Qingmiao? Zhong Liqian frowned and pondered.
While the crowd was discussing how to ignite the mountain fire, a fragrance came.
âThis medicinal fragrance â¦â¦ I smelled it when I met Purple Spirit Pavilion Master before.â Yao Wendan said âCould it be that the strange movement in the underground crater has alerted the Purple Spirit Pavilion Master?â
As they spoke, several people came from not far away. Several women dressed in purple robes pushed the luxurious rickshaw. Inside sat a person whose face was blocked by the curtain.
When they arrived near, the four maids dressed in purple put down the rickshaw and the leading woman said: âI wonder who started the fire just now?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The crowd retreated, revealing Baili Qingmiao, then a low voice came from the curtain: âSure enough, itâs you.â
Baili Qingmiao tilted her head, cupping her fists saluting as she said politely: âMy name is Baili Qingmiao, from what the Pavilion Master said, have you ever met with Baili in the past?â
âWho knows?â A hand lifted the curtain, a man in a silver robe stepped out, his eyes sweeping over Baili Qingmiao face and said: âPerhaps we met in a previous life.â
His long black hair was combed back and bound by a silver hair band, a few strands of long hair scattered on his shoulders. His narrow phoenix eyes flashed with a trace of coldness and his thin lips were bloodless. Only after seeing Baili Qingmiao did he smile without any warmth: âThe Shangqing Sect is the leader of the righteous path and this time many experts came that our Purple Spirit Pavilion do not dare to neglect. Why donât you stay in the Purple Spirit Pavilion for a while, and weâll figure out how to ripen the seedlings of the lock core herb together. Itâs okay if you canât, isnât there still a mature one? As long as the Shangqing sect can come up with items of equal value in exchange, it is not impossible to give it to you.â
Everyone: ââ¦â
No, thatâs not what you said a few days ago.
Not only were the people present puzzled, but also readers of ãAbusive Love Affairãand ãThe God of Destructionãwere all dumbfounded.
The book review area of the two books became unprecedentedly unified for once asking âWho are you, handsome guy?â and even Wen Renhe couldnât believe his own eyes.
The first wife of He Wenchao in ãThe God of Destructionãand the number one female lead rival in ãAbusive Love Affairã, the female scattered immortal who was beaten up by Wen Renhe on the Wanli ice field, how did she become a man now?
Yin Hanjiang saw his lord standing in front of the Purple Spirit Pavilion, Misty Morning Bell flipping through the book. Then he suddenly settled somewhere, his face turning green and white as if he suddenly had encountered something difficult.
âVenerable?â Yin Hanjiang looked at Wen Renhe in puzzlement, he couldnât imagine anything in this world that could be so difficult for Wen Renhe.
âNothing.â The revised version of both books ended here, Wen Renhe put the book away and stood in front of the Mist Morning Bell thinking: âPatriarch Yin, it seems that you and I have to change our plan.â
Coming to the Purple Spirit Pavilion, Wen Renhe had two plans in mind, first violently destroy the Purple Spirit Pavilionâs formation and break in to find the scattered immortal to force out of her method of possessing the body. Second, blow up half of Taiyin Mountain and use the art of voice transmission to say his request, so that the Purple Spirit Pavilion will respectfully present the method to him.
But who could have known that the plot had already taken an unprecedented turn, Wen Renhe decided to change his plan and enter the Purple Spirit Pavilion with a new âpoliteâ identity.
âYou and I need to change our appearance and pretend to be⦠the gatekeepers of the Zhong family and submit the invitation in a proper manner to enter Purple Spirit Pavilion. Zhong Liqian should be able to guess it and cover for us.â Wen Renhe quickly came up with a new plan and explained it to Yin Hanjiang.
He had a one-sided relationship with this Purple Spirit Pavilion master, so if he didnât cover his tracks well he would be discovered by that person and then it would be difficult to guess why the plot changed so significantly.
If the Purple Spirit Pavilion Master does not marry He Wenchao like in the original book, then her fate as female lead rival would change. If her fate could be changed, can the fate of important male leads Wen Renhe and Yin Hanjiang also be changed?
The Xuanyuan sect naturally had numerous magic treasures to change their appearance so Yin Hanjiang took out two masks. They were different from human skin masks which could be molded to any appearance you want. This magic treasure was of the lowest level so itâs aura was extremely low, except for changing the appearance it has no other use. The only advantage was that as long as the face was not touched, they would not be recognized.
âPatriarch Yin, mold a face for this venerable.â Wen Renhe instructed.
Yin Hanjiang pasted the âmaskâ on Wen Renheâs face and gently molded it with his fingertips as he asked: âWhat do you want to look like?â
âDo as you please.â Wen Renhe said, he had great confidence in Zhong Liqian intelligence so no matter how they looked, Zhong Liqian would recognize them and help them cover up their identity.
Yin Hanjiang was not short, only an inch lower than Wen Renhe, looking at Wen Renhe face he molded it attentively. After molding out a face he was stunned for a moment before hurriedly intending to remake it but Wen Renhe said: âIs it ready? Let me see.â
He pointed casually and an ice mirror appeared in front of his eyes, Wen Renhe stared at the face in the mirror silently.
The face was almost exactly like his own and only the eyebrows and eyes were slightly different from what they looked now. Giving him a little more heroic feeling, he looked just like General Wen Ren from the border town from more than a hundred years ago.
âIn the eyes of Patriarch Yin, was this venerable always only this?â In Wen Renheâs eyes, faintly flashed a trace of displeasure that came from nowhere : âGeneral Wen Ren is only a brief experience of this Venerableâs life in the mortal world. This venerable has already come out of his state of mind from that time, if Patriarch Yinâs perception remains stuck in that time period, he will never be able to advance to the Mahayana realm.â
âThatâs not true, itâs justâ¦..â Yin Hanjiang himself did not know how to explain it. Just now Venerable looked at him so intently and his gaze was so gentle that his hands moved involuntarily.
âSubordinate will change it for the Lord.â Yin Hanjiang hurriedly said.
âNo need.â Wen Renhe said and a plain face appeared and his black robe became the gray clothes of the Zhong family.
Yin Hanjiang put the âmaskâon his own face and was about to form an ordinary face for himself when Wen Renhe said: âCome to this venerable.â
A strong hand pressed Yin Hanjiang face as his whole body stiffened, he did not move and even his breathing stopped.
Wen Renhe made a mediocre face for Yin Hanjiang and withdrew his hand saying: âPatriarch Yin, donât keep chasing this Venerableâs shadow.â
âThis subordinate did not â¦â¦â Yin Hanjiang, was not able to end his sentence. He once told Zhong Liqian that he would not ask for anything and just watch silently. But in fact it was difficult to eliminate the delusions altogether.
He longed to become General Wen Renâs soldier, even if he and his lord were mortal, it would not matter. They would wear the same robe in the battlefield so even if they died together it would still be some kind of happiness.
Devil Venerable was too powerful and difficult to chase, so Yin Hanjiang did not dare to even think about it. He could only hold it in his heart so maybe in his next life he would have an opportunity.
When Wen Renhe saw him like this, he couldnât help but sigh slightly.
On the day when Alkaidâs sword was refined, he clearly felt that Yin Hanjiang was gradually opening his heart and was no longer the foolish and loyal Left Protector of the past. At that time, everything was going in a good direction, so why did he suddenly retreat back again? And even further than before?
âPatriarch Yin, do you have something on your mind that you are hiding from this venerable?â Wen Renhe asked.
âNoâ¦â¦â Yin Hanjiang couldnât say it, he really was hiding something from his lord that he would never be able to say in this life. Even if he died and his soul was taken out to be refined, he would never say it.
He looked up at Wen Renhe, his eyes full of determination: âI really have something on my mind, but it has nothing to do with lord. Venerable, please donât need to be concerned, this subordinate will certainly handle it.â
âYou â¦â¦â Wen Renhe turned his palm into a claw, stopping in the moment he was about to strangle Yin Hanjiangâs neck.
Yin Hanjiang did not avoid or dodge, instead, he obediently exposed his neck to allow his lord to strangle him.
âAfter returning to the Xuanyuan sect, go to the forbidden place to think about it for fifty years. If you donât untie your heart knot in fifty yearsâ¦â Wen Renhe paused, he did not know how to punish so he just added: âWe will discuss it after fifty years.â
After thinking about it for fifty years⦠Yin Hanjiang bowed his head and smiled bitterly.
Wen Renhe noticed that no matter what he said, Yin Hanjiang wasnât moved so a sense of powerlessness rose in his chest so he just rang Mist Morning Bell as he said: âZhong family, Zhongli Qian grandsonâs disciples Wenzun and Yinjiang seek to visit Zhong grandson. Hoping that Purple Spirit Pavilion will let us come in.â
Zhong Liqian who heard the news: ââ¦â¦â
Wenzun, Yinjiang â¦â¦ wasnât venerable afraid that with these names will others know their identity?
