Chapter 153: Chapter 153 Divine Master (2)_1
"That so-called Divine Master will feel it," Jiang Yu said.
"And the second method?" Dugu Qianye asked.
"No, that little Yellowstone Fiend won’t be able to sense my presence," Jiang Yu confidently stated.
"Then let’s use the second one," Dugu Qianye thought for a moment and decided to adopt the second method.
If the Divine Master knew, it meant that the people of the Divine Temple would be aware. Once the Divine Temple’s people discovered what was going on, it would be dangerous for the students of Empire College. They had to follow the Divine Temple’s lead now, without letting them detect any clues. Moreover, thinking of Huagui beneath the altar, Dugu Qianye felt that the Divine Temple was planning a significant conspiracy.
Lan Mei directly brought Dugu Qianye to the outskirts of Holy Sea City; they didn’t enter the city and landed by the seaside. Dugu Qianye took out a Communication Stone and told Xie Ping that he had found Youwu, saying that Youwu was injured but was now alright. Then he informed Xie Ping about the deception on the altar and shared his plan, asking him to tell the students of the college to pretend they had been brainwashed when the time came.
To avoid detection by the Divine Temple, Jiang Yu began to spread his Spiritual Mist before dawn, blending it with the morning mist created by nature, and guided the Spiritual Mist towards the altar.
The two then stealthily entered Holy Sea City and went to Fen Jian’s residence.
Dugu Qianye went straight to Fen Jian’s room and jumped in through the window. Fen Jian, wearing his pajamas and realizing someone had entered, immediately lept from the bed and attacked the intruder.
Dugu Qianye grabbed Fen Jian’s incoming hand, saying, "It’s me."
Startled by Dugu Qianye, Fen Jian asked, "How did you come back?"
Dugu Qianye sat down by his table and replied, "Flew back."
Fen Jian, feeling gloomy, didn’t turn on the light and just put on a coat to sit opposite her. Only then did he notice a man sitting on the windowsill, a man of extreme allure. Under the moonlight, his silver hair seemed to merge with the light itself.
"Who is he?" Fen Jian couldn’t help but ask. Dugu Qianye being followed by a man, and such a strikingly beautiful one at that, made Fen Jian wonder what kind of reaction that would provoke from Zi Xiao.
"My companion," Dugu Qianye answered without hesitation before describing to Fen Jian what she had seen and experienced on Wuyou Island. She didn’t turn to look at Jiang Yu, and therefore did not see the mixture of satisfaction and emotion that crossed his face upon hearing her refer to him as her companion.
"I found Youwu’s grandfather on Wuyou Island, so you can stop searching for him. But my grandfather and the principal were not there."
While still eyeing Jiang Yu, Fen Jian heard Dugu Qianye’s words and said, "That means we’re down a hundred Marrow-Cleansing Pills, such a pity. But you’re too daring, directly taking out Niu Yan like that. You caught me off guard."
"He came looking for trouble, not me," Dugu Qianye said, "and making a mistake that could get me confined there, it had to be a big one, right? It couldn’t raise their suspicion, either. Niu Yan wanted to kill me, so in self-defense, I killed him. That was natural and didn’t arouse suspicion. If I had made some minor mistake, would that have alarmed them?"
Fen Jian, unable to argue with her, didn’t bother to continue the debate. At that time, his heart had also been in his throat for her, fearing she would inadvertently be taken care of by Yu Batian.
"So why have you come to me tonight?" Fen Jian asked, "Don’t tell me you want to spend a lovely night together?"
After saying that, Fen Jian threw a flirtatious wink at Dugu Qianye.
Dugu Qianye broke out in a cold sweat and said, "Do you know there is something strange about the altar?"
"You’ve been there?" Fen Jian asked. Clearly, he was aware of it.
"I have."
"Have you been brainwashed?" Fen Jian asked. Actually, he could guess the answer without her response; if she had been brainwashed, how could she still go against the Divine Temple, let alone ask such a question.
"Everyone gets brainwashed the first time they go up there. Those with weak willpower can’t control themselves and become followers of the Divine Master."
"Then how come you’re fine?" Dugu Qianye asked. If he had been brainwashed, how could he still occupy the third chair of the Secret Pavilion?
"I have a way to resist," Fen Jian said.
"What, there’s actually a way to resist?" Dugu Qianye was somewhat surprised.
"Yes, but only I can use it," Fen Jian said, shrouded in mystery.
Seeing that Fen Jian was giving information in bits and pieces, Dugu Qianye became directly irritated, "Can’t you just say it outright?"
"Uh—" Fen Jian did not expect Dugu Qianye to be so impetuous, and said, "My Divine Artifact helps me resist."
Divine Artifact! So that’s how it is.
"Or perhaps, his own determination is strong enough to withstand it."
The Divine Master must have seen that the levels on the Xuanyue Continent were not high, so the levels of the Yellowstone Fiends he sent down were also not high; as long as one reached the Phantom Venerable Level and had a Divine Artifact to resist, the Yellowstone Fiends couldn’t affect them.
"Tomorrow, Shen Xingzong is inviting people from the four great Empires to the altar, you know about it, right?"
"I know. But my Divine Artifact can only protect me alone," Fen Jian said.
"I’ll take care of their matter tomorrow. But I want to go to the altar to have a look, arrange a spot for me," Dugu Qianye said.
Fen Jian felt thirsty, poured himself a cup of last night’s cold tea, and had just taken a sip when he heard Dugu Qianye’s words, causing him to spray out the tea. Fortunately, Dugu Qianye dodged quickly, otherwise, he would have been drenched.
"No way, you still want to go to the altar tomorrow?!" Fen Jian couldn’t help but exclaim, "Staying here is already very dangerous for you, and you still want to go to the altar tomorrow, is that not seeking death?"
"Of course, I’m not seeking death. If I go, naturally, I won’t let others recognize me. You must have people from the Secret Pavilion in there, let me meet them, then all you need to do is arrange their place for me."
Fen Jian still disagreed, as if the people of the Divine Temple discovered it, she would be in danger. If Zi Xiao came back and found out, he would be unable to explain himself.
Seeing that Fen Jian disagreed, Dugu Qianye took out a mask and put it on, and suddenly a face identical to Fen Jian’s appeared. Poor Fen Jian, having just taken a second sip of water, sprayed it out again.
"Alright, I give in," Fen Jian said, then arranged a spot for Dugu Qianye. It was not on the altar, but he could see what was happening on the altar.
Early the next morning, Dugu Qianye followed Fen Jian to the altar, disguised as a menial servant. In Fen Jian’s words, the more inconspicuous the person, the better to disguise, because no one would pay attention to him.
The students from the four great Empires had already arrived beneath the altar, looking at the two pillars on the altar, thinking about what the headmaster had told them last night.
After Dugu Qianye arrived at the altar, she no longer followed Fen Jian. She approached a group of people and listened to them whispering about the upcoming grand ritual.
"In just 8 days, the grand ritual will be here, the thought of it is thrilling!"
