Shock! The Evil Emperor actually pampered the entire cultivation world
Chapter 18: The Secret Art of Shapeshifting
"Bang——" The person in charge who acted as the doorman closed half of the door, smiled apologetically, and signaled behind her with his eyes.
Yi Chi felt the gaze behind him, sighed inwardly, sat back and continued drinking tea, pretending not to notice Mo Huaizun's deep gaze.
Mo Huaizun said calmly, "Se Jue, don't do anything reckless."
Wenren Sejue Caocao nodded.
Mo Huaizun glanced at Su Yueyan, who looked extremely aggrieved after being helped up, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, "Lord Xiaoyao is my master, he has an eccentric personality and loves drinking. Back then, Old City Lord Song brought out a pot of ancient fine wine from the secret realm and exchanged this marriage with Lord Xiaoyao."
Yi Chi was startled and laughed in his heart. It was outrageous to exchange his cheap apprentice for a pot of good wine! But if it was done by Lord Xiaoyao, then it was normal.
Song Yueqing widened her eyes slightly. She had been wondering why her family could climb up the supreme cliff. Her grandfather never told her about it, and it turned out that no one would believe it even if she told him!
"It cannot be carried out now, but the Tianling Auction will have other compensations for the City Lord's Mansion."
Mo Huaizun looked at Song Yueqing and made the final decision in a steady tone, "As the granddaughter of Old City Lord Song, as long as her position as Young City Lord remains unchanged, the Tianling Auction will be held in Hewen City for the next 100 years, and there will be some discounts for the Young City Lord's items. The local person in charge will discuss this matter with Miss Song."
Does this mean to skip Su Xing, the son-in-law of the city lord, and clearly support Song Yueqing to take the throne?
Song Yueqing had already given up hope, but was pleasantly surprised when she heard this, "Thank you, my Lord!"
Su Yueyan bit her lip and her face turned pale but she didn't dare to say anything. Although her main purpose was to capture the target, she always regarded the position of young city lord as something in her pocket.
"What does your Lordship mean? Jueya wants to interfere in the internal affairs of Hewen City?" Su Xing was frustrated again and again, and he was furious, so he asked coldly.
"The city lord has to think it over before he speaks. The Lord does not mean to appoint or dismiss the city lord." The person in charge said with a smile.
Su Xing's mind became clearer. He glanced at the accounts and was not prepared to pay attention to Mo Huaizun, who was feeling resentful.
But he could go from being a son-in-law who was looked down upon by everyone to the Lord of Hewen City, so he could naturally endure things that ordinary people could not endure. Therefore, he slowly bowed his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Lord. I believe Yue Qing will not let you down."
"Let's go. It's time to discuss the follow-up matters with City Lord Wen and Miss Su." The person in charge was extremely smooth. He saw that his boss had something to talk to Yi Chi, so he tactfully led the bystanders out.
When Song Yueqing left, she winked at Yi Chi with a look of blessing on her face. "This lady is counting on your sympathy and encouragement."
Yi Chi was speechless. It wasn’t like he was going to the execution ground.
The doors opened and closed, and the only people left in the room were Yi Chi, who was feeling bitter, Mo Huaizun, who stood still, and Wen Ren Sejue, who was sitting in an awkward position.
The air was exceptionally quiet, with shouts of auctioneers outside rising and falling. Yi Chi, who was being burned to death at the crematorium, had no choice but to lower his head and continue counting the tea leaves.
"I don't know where Miss Yi Chi learned the secret art of shape-changing. There are not many people in the cultivation world who can do it. The last master of this art that I saw was that omnipotent little junior sister."
Mo Huaizun turned a page of paper and spoke in a light voice, his voice sinking in the tea mist, a low and pleasant hum.
Yi Chi's heart was in suspense.
The secret art of shape-changing is rare and extremely difficult to master, and it is also very useless in the world of cultivation where spiritual tools are rampant, so there are very few people who can do it.
It seemed that Yi Chi used magical herbs to change his appearance yesterday, but in fact he was changing his body shape. Otherwise, how could such a simple disguise technique not be seen through by Su Xing, who was in the Spirit Transformation Stage?
"In the world of cultivation, opportunities are determined by heaven. I only learned it by chance in a secret place. Your Excellency saw through it at a glance, which shows that I learned it carelessly. This secret technique is not that powerful."
Yi Chi pretended not to hear the second half of the sentence, being very humble, but in fact he was implying that Mo Huaizun was ignorant of the rules of the cultivation world and was interfering in other people's opportunities.
Mo Huaizun paused for a moment and looked up. "That's not the case. It's just that the Hunyuan body is really special. Even if you try your best to hide it, the spiritual energy fluctuations around you are still more active than those in the other foundation-building stages. That's why I carefully investigated. And I've often received news about you in the past two days, so I naturally paid attention to it."
Yi Chi had nothing to say. It was extremely difficult to conceal his special physique by just relying on the secret art of shape-changing. Even if the difference was small, it would still be eye-catching in the eyes of someone as meticulous as Mo Huaizun.
"Miss Yi Chi stole the Red Sleeve Spirit Ship but did not flee. Instead, she risked her life to come to this crowded auction. Now she is not in a hurry to bid. I am afraid she has some finale items that she must purchase."
Mo Huaizun always spoke slowly and directly to the point, and the sense of oppression was as real as a substance. If it were an ordinary foundation-building cultivator, he would definitely be panicked.
Yi Chi didn't care about these, but her real identity was embarrassing, so she was very tired.
I just want to escape from this suffocating place.
Hearing this, she immediately returned the Red Sleeve Spirit Ship with both hands, and found an excuse to admit her mistake and show her loyalty, trying to suppress what Mo Huaizun said next, "Yesterday I saw that the Master was in a state of confusion, so I had no choice but to keep it for him. Now that it has been returned to its original owner, I am relieved."
"If there is nothing else important, I will leave first."
Watching Yi Chi's disappearing back, Wenren Sejue, who had never interrupted, played with the spirit ship on his slender fingertips, raised an eyebrow in surprise, "Just let her go like this? With her Hunyuan physique, Jueya can't just stand by and watch, right?"
Mo Huaizun retracted his deep gaze, took a sip of tea, and said calmly, "Don't worry, she will come to my door in less than an hour."
After saying this, he called the supervisor over and said a few words to him. The supervisor went out in shock.
After the people left, Wenren Sejue smiled with half of his face propped up, "What a generous gesture."
"I thought you didn't want to bother recruiting, but I didn't expect that the head brother would resort to such means."
"After all, you have to support a declining sect. As the leader of a sect, you are isolated and helpless. It is natural that you will benefit a lot from haggling over interests every day." Mo Huaizun's voice was warm and deep, and he looked very solemn.
Wenren Sejue rolled his eyes, "Okay, okay, stop pretending, what do you want me to do now?"
Mo Huaizun's eyes shone slightly, "You will know soon."
Wenren Sejue was used to this man's behavior and had no interest in asking further questions. Thinking of Yi Chi, he threw a crystal stone to Mo Huaizun through the air.
"The backgrounds of the brother and sister have been investigated, so there is no problem. It's just that Yi Chi's personality is very interesting. He looks withdrawn and shy, but he is actually eccentric, with a unique personality and quite mysterious." As if he remembered something, he chuckled twice.
"You are so bold that you dared to drug me and steal the spirit ship. Fortunately, I did not drink it."
Mo Huaizun's spiritual sense swept over and when he heard the words, his mind recalled the look on Yi Chi's face when he inserted the plum branch into Yu Zhiqing's head and looked up to provoke her.
A bit casual, a bit wanton, a bit proud.
Very long time no see.
"The true teachings of Jueya should be like this. Better to have nothing than to have something less than perfect."
This person is not interested in the sect, so it takes some effort to recruit him.
……
Yi Chi walked into a room on the third floor with a thoughtful look on his face.
Yi Yuan sat there anxiously waiting for a long time, and only felt relieved when he saw him.
