Chapter 188: Isn’t It Me? (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Having checked around this place, Rong Yi was pretty sure here should be the end of the cave and there was no other way out. He took out a brush and some papers and made five water-proof runes and pasted them on his own face. As long as he leaned close the water, a shield would generate on his face and the water would stay half one chi (chi is a Chinese unit of measurement, one chi equals 33.33333…cm) away from his head and he could breathe freely.
First he dived to the bottom of the water and then swam following where the water was flowing to. When he saw light above his head, he immediately swam upwards excitedly.
The moment he got out of water, someone immediately pulled him up.
“Master shifu!”
An exciting voice immediately came into Rong Yi’s ears. He raised his head and saw it was his disciple Bu Qi.
Bu Qi was overjoyed, “I know you’d be fine!”
His master shi’s cultivation level wasn’t high, but he got all kinds of tricks. He must have used some kind of rune or formation to snuff out any danger. Besides, his master shifu was not a fool. He would never touch any trigger in a strange environment.
Seeing Rong Yi in a whole piece, Bai Yunchen breathed a sigh of relief.
Rong Yi looked up. It was already dawn. He then looked around. They were not in the original owner’s room.
“Where are we now?”
“In the back of Tianxu Peak.” Bai Yunchen then asked concernedly, “Yi, are you all right? Did you encounter some strange things down there?”
Hearing his words, Rong Yi felt that it seemed Bai Yunchen also knew that the cave down in there was connected to the modern world. So he pretended to be scared, “I didn’t meet anything strange, but it’s really scary in there. Someone kept talking by my ears. I even heard someone shouting for help. Senior brother, is there someone locked down?”
Bai Yunchen shook his head, “It’s not human but a ferocious evil beast. Before master shifu caught him, he often played weak to gain people’s sympathy and then ate people unprepared. Then master shifu locked it down in the cave to guard it. Fortunately you didn’t fall into his trap. If you really released him, he would definitely eat you, even your bones and your hair.”
But what surprised him most was instead of having died in there, he found the way out by chance.
“Yi, how did you find the way out?” No one else could find the way out in such a short time.
I saw that the water keeps spraying out in the pond. So I was wonder whether down in the water is connected to the outside world. So I dived in and gave it a shot. And I really find the way out.”
Bu Qi said, “This is the place to talk. Let’s go back first.
Rong Yi said, “It’s already dawn, so we won’t go back to Tianxu Peak then. My kids and their father are still waiting for me. Senior brother, I’ll come visit you again when I have time.”
“Have a cup of spiritual tea and get changed before you leave.” Bai Yunchen then took out a cup of tea and a new robe for him. If he just left like that, others would guess he got maltreated in here.
After changing the robe, Rong Yi left. On the way he saw that disciples of Nine Void Sect flying back and forth like something huge was happening, because there were even elders, guards and peak leaders among them.
“Bu Qi, something big is happening to Nine Void Sect?”
Bu Qi grinned, “How is that possible? After knowing you are leaving, they just show themselves before your eyes, trying to get themselves acquainted with you, then they could have a chance to ask you to make them enchanted runes.”
He didn’t lower his voice when saying those words, so anyone with high spiritual power could hear him. And then everyone no longer had the face to pretend to come across with Rong Yi and tried to catch up a conversation with him.
Rong Yi found it funny, “You are being too straight. Aren’t you afraid others might hate you?”
“No!” Bu Qi touched the mask on his face and said to Rong Yi using ventriloquism, “They all have no idea who I am. But some might mistake me as the chief due to my voice.”
He guessed right. Some really thought he was the chief and cursed that the chief was so sly to get close to Rong Yi disguised as someone else.
Rong Yi laughed.
When they flew by the gate of the mansion, Bu Qi heaved a sigh, “Speak of the devil, and the devil comes.”
Before his words died away, Rong Yi already saw the chief walk their way.
Seeing Rong Yi and Bu Qi, the chief raised his brows, “What a coincidence!”
Bu Qi then said, “But from what I see is you are waiting for us here.”
The chief narrowed his eyes, “You are Bu Qi?”
Last time when he asked Immortal Yunyi who Bu Qi was, he just wouldn’t tell, only saying that Bu Qi would never do something harmful to Nine Void Sect.
Bu Qi curled up his lips, “I heard from Immortal Yunyi that you are investigating me. Now you know who I am?”
Hearing his voice, the chief was kind of surprised, “You…no…you…”
Bu Qi smiled and then directly left with Rong Yi.
Watching them leave, the chief muttered to himself, “Great grand master uncle (his great grand master shifu’s peer)…”
He never expected he would have a chance to see this person.
As Rong Yi went back to his mansion, Yin Tao and Jiang Mu immediately threw themselves at him, “Daddy, you are home!”
Rong Yi then held both up, asking with a smile, “I was out the while night last night. Did you miss me?”
Yin Tao said happily, “Yes!”
While Jiang Mu just kept sniffing on him.
At this time Yan Qiushuang came out holding Yin Sensen, “Yi, come with me. I got something to tell you.”
