Shi Banxian knew he had run into a master—a true master.
One who was even more formidable than those old fossils of the Haoran Sect.
Could he be a Mahayana stage powerhouse?
Just as Shi Banxian was wondering about the Grand Elder's cultivation, the Grand Elder's voice rang out:
“It's like this. I have a mission for you. You need to play the role of someone named Wang Defa...”
Shi Banxian looked bewildered, not understanding why he was being asked to impersonate someone else. However, he quickly agreed.
“Alright!”
The Grand Elder then recounted his interactions with Lu Ming and the others when he had disguised himself as Wang Defa.
“This is Wang Defa's history. Act well and don't blow your cover. Well, even if you do, it doesn't matter, as long as you can bluff your way through...”
Shi Banxian nodded repeatedly and guaranteed,
“Please rest assured, Senior... I guarantee I will complete the mission...”
He had to perform well. If this big shot got happy and taught him a few moves, it would be enough to benefit him for a lifetime.
Only he knew how terrifying this big shot's methods were... He could even punish him from afar when he was performing a divination.
Could it be that he had divined the big shot previously? Or someone related to him? It must be related... Otherwise, the big shot wouldn't have punished him...
The Grand Elder nodded. “If necessary, and you want to reclaim your identity, just find an excuse to do so.”
“No need, no need! I feel this Wang Defa identity is quite nice. My surname is actually Wang, and my name is Wang Er. From now on, I'll just be Wang Defa...”
The Grand Elder nodded. “Suit yourself...”
Afterward, the Grand Elder handed Wang Defa's Heavenly Demon Sect identity token to Shi Banxian.
Sigh... I've finally found a Wang Defa for those kids. They shouldn't ask me for him anymore!
Just as Shi Banxian disguised himself as Wang Defa and was about to leave, the Grand Elder's voice rang out: “Wait...”
Shi Banxian turned around. “Senior, are there any other instructions?”
“That disciple of yours has an impure mind and bears the look of one who would betray his master and ancestors...”
Hearing the Grand Elder's words, Shi Banxian nodded repeatedly. “I know.”
After his disciple's death, he had found some things in his storage bag...
...
“Great Sect Master, this is bad!”
Lu Ming was carving an array disk when he suddenly heard Diao San's panicked voice.
He raised his head in confusion and asked, “What happened?”
Diao San wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead. “The... the large blue stone at the sect's main entrance is gone!”
“What?”
Lu Ming abruptly stood up and exclaimed, “It was perfectly fine. How could the large blue stone just disappear?”
Diao San was on the verge of tears. “I... I don't know! Yesterday, I even wiped it with a rag. But when I went to wipe it today, I found it was gone...”
“Let's go... Let's take a look...”
Lu Ming tossed aside the array disk in his hand. With a flash of his silhouette, he quickly arrived at the spot where the large blue stone had been placed.
Everything around was normal, except the large blue stone was indeed missing.
Just then, Big Yellow and Huang Tianbao arrived as well.
“What's wrong? What's wrong?” Big Yellow asked, wagging its tail.
“The sect's sign is missing?”
Lu Ming pointed to the spot where the large blue stone had been placed.
“What thief dares to run wild in our Qingshan Sect!” Big Yellow roared, leaping three feet into the air.
Huang Tianbao also asked with a face full of confusion, “How could the large blue stone be lost?”
Lu Ming turned to ask Diao San, “Did the sect lose anything else?”
Diao San shook his head. “No, only the large blue stone is gone. I haven't found anything else missing...”
“I thought the sect had been burgled, but after checking, I found only the large blue stone was missing...”
Diao San also found it strange. After all, everything else was more valuable than the large blue stone!
He had been wiping the large blue stone for the past few days, and it felt like just an ordinary rock!
It just happened to be blue-green, which matched the name of their Qingshan Sect quite well.
On top of that, it was the Qingshan Sect's sign...
“Search, search quickly... See if the brothers hid it as a joke,” Lu Ming shouted urgently.
Although he felt this was unlikely, he couldn't rule it out!
What if someone had a weird hobby and took a liking to the large blue stone?
Or perhaps everyone was so used to being outside that their habit of picking things up flared up, and they looted the large blue stone?
After all, he had this habit himself. Whenever he saw something good, he would subconsciously want to put it into his storage bag and bring it back to the sect.
A moment later, Fu Chen and the rest of the crowd arrived.
“Did any of you take the sect's large blue stone?”
“No!”
“No!”
...
Fu Chen and the rest of the crowd shook their heads repeatedly.
After joining the Heavenly Demon Sect, they indeed had developed the habit of looting wherever they went.
But they couldn't possibly loot their own sect's sign!
“Take a look, everyone check your storage bags. Make sure you didn't subconsciously stuff it inside...”
Hearing Lu Ming's words, everyone was utterly speechless.
Nevertheless, everyone was very obedient and checked their storage bags.
“Not here!”
“Not here!”
...
Hearing Fu Chen and the others call out "not here" one by one, Lu Ming instantly broke into a cold sweat of anxiety.
This was terrible. The Grand Elder and the others had just left, leaving him to watch the house, and he had already lost the sect's large blue stone.
When the Grand Elder and the others returned, how would he explain this to them?
Immediately, he hurriedly checked his own storage bag.
At the same time, he did not forget to remind Big Yellow and Huang Tianbao to check as well.
The three of them rummaged through their bags but couldn't find it either.
Lu Ming even checked the Equality Secret Realm.
But it was still not there.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Why did this thief not steal anything valuable?
Why did they have to steal the large blue stone of all things?
Just as everyone was getting anxious, a sound transmission talisman suddenly appeared in front of Lu Ming:
“Great Sect Master, Great Sect Master, where are you guys?”
Hearing Wang Defa's familiar voice, Lu Ming's eyes lit up.
“We are at the sect. Hurry back, there's an emergency...”
Then, Lu Ming sent the coordinates to Wang Defa.
“What a coincidence, I'm nearby. I'll be right there!”
A moment later.
Chug-chug-chug... Clatter-clatter-clank...
Lu Ming and the others saw a spirit boat belching black smoke flying in from the distance.
Seeing this, Lu Ming's lips twitched. He didn't know why, but...
Fu Chen and the others' spirit boats all looked like this...
It had already become a trend in the sect!
Everyone had a spirit boat that spewed black smoke!
Thud...
The spirit boat landed, and Wang Defa walked down with a smile.
“Wang Defa, did your sweetheart marry someone else?”
Huang Tianbao asked bluntly.
Lu Ming was completely dumbfounded. Didn't they agree to comfort Wang Defa when he returned?
You're literally rubbing salt in his wounds!
Wang Defa's lips twitched. A big shot is indeed a big shot.
They are truly extraordinary.
To think there's even such a background design for my identity!
Thinking of his identity design, Wang Defa gave a bitter smile:
“Sigh... Tell me, in what way am I inferior to him?”
Lu Ming quickly stepped forward and patted his shoulder:
“It's fine. I'll introduce ten to you in the future!”
Just as Wang Defa was about to open his mouth to decline, Lu Ming's voice rang out again:
“But right now, we have an urgent matter. Can you divine where our sect's large blue stone has gone?”
Rate on N.U.
