Upon hearing this, the white-faced monster was suddenly flustered, and immediately said with a look of horror:
“Immortal, this… this I… really don’t know!”
Just as Xu Taiping was getting annoyed by being called by this hundred-faced monster and was about to give him another cone to make him calm down, the voice of the Eighth Senior Brother suddenly rang out——
“Little Junior Brother, I know about this.”
“It’s just tomorrow afternoon. In the past, when it was the anniversary of the death of our former mistress, Little Junior Sister always asked me to help buy wine and dishes!”
“Tomorrow afternoon, that’s still in time…”
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping immediately relaxed.
Next, after Xu Taiping confirmed again whether what this white-faced monster said was false, he then put it into the Ghost-Sealing Talisman.
However, before sealing it into the Ghost-Sealing Talisman, he made it send a message to Jin Hezhi with the Message-Sending Jade Slip——
“Honored Superior, Wu Liang, the eighth disciple of the seven peaks, has already fled back to Qingxuan. Should we continue the pursuit?”
To Xu Taiping’s surprise, Jin Hezhi quickly had a reply——
“Trash! Wait at the foot of the mountain. No one is allowed to enter the mountain before the grand ceremony.”
After hearing this familiar voice, Xu Taiping could already be completely sure that what this white-faced monster said was not false.
“Jin Hezhi, since you dare to come this time, don’t even think about escaping.”
Xu Taiping muttered with a cold gaze.
Then he turned his head and looked at the Eighth Senior Brother beside him and said:
“Eighth Senior Brother, Jin Hezhi has been planning for a long time. You only know a part of his conspiracy now. Before you can completely figure it out, don’t startle the snake.”
“Besides, the news of my return cannot be revealed to anyone.”
“Don’t worry, little junior brother. I understand this.” Wu Liang promised solemnly.
“There is one more thing I want to ask Eighth Senior Brother to help with.” Xu Taiping suddenly looked at Wu Liang with a serious expression.
“What kind of help do you need? Just say it, little junior brother!” Wu Liang nodded seriously.
“I want to borrow your face, senior brother.”
Xu Taiping looked at Eighth Senior Brother Wu Liang seriously and said.
“My… face?”
Youdaoplaceholder0 stunned.
……
Half a stick of incense later.
Xu Taiping transformed into the appearance of Eighth Senior Brother Wu Liang and walked out of that karst cave.
“In this way, I will be able to move freely in Qingxuan. However, it means that Eighth Senior Brother, you will have to take a nap in the Dragon-Trapping Tower for the time being.”
He then looked at the Dragon-Trapping Tower in his hand again.
This time, it is only Jin Hezhi who is causing trouble behind the scenes. He can directly report this matter to the Sect Master.
But the problem is that behind Jin Hezhi, there are also two Faceless Ones from the Faceless Tower.
Even more crucial is that these two Faceless Ones have been lurking and plotting in Qingxuan for a full seven years.
“Perhaps, apart from Jin Hezhi, these two people also have other chess pieces in their hands.”
“Therefore, before those two put all their chess pieces on the chessboard, I must never expose my identity. Otherwise, the scene seen by Lotus Pupil will definitely change.”
While changing into Eighth Senior Brother’s clothes, Xu Taiping muttered to himself.
He had long known that the scenes seen in Lotus Pupil were only from some kind of deduction. Once you intervened too hastily, it was very likely to change the disaster and make the deduction of Lotus Pupil invalid.
This is why Xu Taiping is so cautious.
“Taiping, next I suggest you first go and take a look at the place where those two Faceless Ones are in seclusion. We have to first confirm whether what Lotus Pupil saw is correct.”
“Otherwise, it will be a waste of effort.”
Fairy Lingyue suddenly reminded Xu Taiping.
“Well, go there today. It just so happens that I can also see how Uncle Baihong is doing now.”
Xu Taiping nodded.
……
Two hours later.
Star-Gazing Cliff.
Danxia Cave.
This was precisely the cultivation ashram of Uncle Baihong, and also the hiding place of the two Faceless Ones in Lotus Pupil.
“The cave door isn’t sealed shut. Those two Faceless Ones should have come out of seclusion.”
Looking at the cave with the open door, Xu Taiping said to Fairy Lingyue in his heart.
“Go in and confirm. You have Lotus Pupil to shield your aura, and also this cloak. Don’t be afraid of being by them.”
Fairy Lingyue replied.
Xu Taiping nodded and immediately took out the token given by Bai Yu to open the stone door of Danxia Cave.
The moment the stone door opened, an extremely thick bloody qi immediately blew towards him.
Xu Taiping’s heart skipped a beat, and a strong sense of unease welled up in him.
“Bai… Uncle Baihong?”
After he walked a few more steps into the cave, he suddenly saw Baihong, who was covered in injuries, being bound by chains and lying weakly on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Xu Taiping’s heart trembled.
He was now very glad that he had asked Sister Lingyue to cut off the gourd’s induction with the outside world. Otherwise, Bai Yu, who was currently refining the Demonic Transformation Pill, would definitely go crazy.
“There’s no one in the cave. Those two Faceless Ones should have gone out.”
Fairy Lingyue transmitted her voice to Xu Taiping.
Hearing this, Xu Taiping immediately lifted his cloak and walked quickly to Baihong. He reached out and checked its breath.
After finding that Baihong still had a glimmer of life, Xu Taiping was greatly relieved.
“Sister Lingyue, can I feed Uncle Baihong a vitality pill?”
The appearance of Uncle Baihong at this moment really made Xu Taiping feel unbearable.
“It’s better not to. Once those two Faceless Ones find out, the deduction of Lotus Eye is very likely to be changed. At that time, it won’t be just one Baihong who dies, but the entire Qingxuan!”
Fairy Lingyue warned Xu Taiping in a very stern tone.
“I understand.”
Xu Taiping nodded, reached out and touched Baihong’s head and said,
“Uncle Baihong, you must hold on for another six days!”
“Taiping, someone is coming!”
At this time, Fairy Lingyue suddenly reminded Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping quickly pulled up his cloak and hid in the corner.
“Rumble…”
Just after hiding well, the sound of the stone door outside the cave slowly opening rang out again.
Then the voice of Fairy Lingyue sounded again——
“This breath is indeed that of the Faceless Ones. The deduction of Lotus Eye is correct. But don’t worry. As long as you hold your breath and concentrate, it’s very difficult for them to find you.”
Xu Taiping nodded silently. Even so, there was still a hint of nervousness in his heart.
After all, he was about to meet two people who, according to Liantong’s deduction, had nearly wiped out the Qingxuan Sect.
