Chapter 1689: Confirm Identity

~6 min read 1,139 words

This scene left Mu Yuqing and the others staring dumbfounded.

The Corpse Demon could actually speak, could release a Human Martial Cultivator, and wanted to lead them away!

Even the leopard was a bit stunned, unsure whether it should bare its teeth and roar at Ye Liuyun and the others.

"Go!"

Mu Yuqing, after regaining her senses, also called out.

The two of them mounted the leopard together and chased after Ye Liuyun and his group.

Since they couldn't defeat the Corpse Demon anyway, they decided to leave this place for the time being.

They hadn't run far when Qiong Qi could no longer maintain the Corpse Demon guise and reverted to the shabby Martial Cultivator appearance.

Seeing this, Ye Liuyun remembered and also transformed back.

"You... are Human?"

Feng Biao exclaimed in surprise.

Ye Liuyun smiled and retorted, "Otherwise, why would we rescue you?"

"You can transform?"

Mu Yuqing asked in astonishment as well.

"It's a secret technique!"

Ye Liuyun explained offhand.

At that moment, there was no Corpse Demon nearby, and the few of them halted.

The reason Ye Liuyun brought them over was to first clarify things with them, so he could lead them onward.

"What about those two Foreign Tribe members who knocked us out earlier?

Were they killed by you?"

Feng Biao asked again.

Ye Liuyun smiled and directly shifted into the previous Foreign Tribe appearance.

Feng Biao, Mu Yuqing, and the leopard examined closely; indeed, there was no flaw, not even a discernible aura.

Then Ye Liuyun transformed into the Corpse Demon form, and finally mimicked Feng Biao's appearance, leaving them gaping.

After recovering, Feng Biao burst into laughter, "Now the Human Race has hope!"

Mu Yuqing nodded in agreement and asked Ye Liuyun, "How is the Human Race's situation now?

Why is it surrounded by Corpse Demons?"

They assumed Ye Liuyun and Qiong Qi had emerged from the Corpse Demon's encirclement.

Only then did Ye Liuyun revert to his true form and explained, "We just arrived here, aren't aware of the interior situation, and happened upon you."

"Ah?

You didn't know?"

Feng Biao heard that and felt a bit disappointed.

Mu Yuqing, though also disappointed, said, "It's fine; with abilities like yours, we have hope!"

Then Mu Yuqing also described their own situation.

Ye Liuyun had already learned these through Soul Search.

"What we need to study now is how to enter and rendezvous with the Martial Cultivators inside?"

Ye Liuyun told them, "Corpse Demons are extremely sensitive to the scent of living beasts; as soon as you approach, they will detect you."

Mu Yuqing and Feng Biao nodded.

They also knew the Corpse Demons well, aware that their own strength was insufficient for a forced breakthrough.

"Did you not leave any contact information with the people inside?"

Ye Liuyun asked.

"Sects originally all have Transmission Talisman.

But now none can be reached!"

Mu Yuqing said.

Ye Liuyun immediately thought that perhaps members of their Sect had perished.

Qiong Qi, without regard for their feelings, blurted out, "Then it's possible that everyone from your Sect is dead! In a year, even two hundred thousand Martial Cultivators would have been largely exhausted.

Managing to last this long is already good!"

But that is the reality.

In fact, Mu Yuqing and the others had thought the same, but refused to admit it to keep hope alive.

When the Human Martial Cultivators here retreated to the Primordial Power of this world, the outcome was already sealed.

At that time they were already powerless to turn the tide, let alone now.

For a moment, the few fell silent.

It was Ye Liuyun who broke the silence.

"I will bring you all into the Space World, take you inside; do you agree?"

Ye Liuyun asked them.

"Of course we agree!"

Feng Biao agreed without hesitation.

Mu Yuqing hesitated cautiously and said to Ye Liuyun, "Young master, if my words offend you, please don't take offense!"

"My name is Ye Liuyun.

If you have anything to say, feel free to speak!"

Ye Liuyun replied.

"I've never heard of this transformation technique of yours."

"But how can you prove you're not a Foreign Tribe shapeshifted into a Human Martial Cultivator, trying to infiltrate the Human Race and wipe it out in one blow?"

Mu Yuqing asked.

Her question made Feng Biao also become cautious.

"Indeed, I hadn't thought of that question just now."

"Maybe you are a Foreign Tribe in disguise!"

Ye Liuyun hadn't wanted to heed their thoughts, but thinking that the person had already been saved, proving himself was no big deal.

Mu Yuqing's worry was not unfounded.

After all, entering another's Space World is like handing over one's life, so caution is understandable.

So Ye Liuyun said, "I can pass this method on to you.

Once you see it, you'll know that a practitioner of this secret cannot fake their Soul.

However, I need to sign a Divine Soul Contract with you, guaranteeing you won't pass this secret to others nor practice it yourself.

Do you agree?"

Mu Yuqing hadn't replied when Feng Biao rushed in, "Since when?

You have such a good secret and keep it to yourself?

If you're truly human, why not let everyone learn it and boost resistance against the Foreign Tribe?"

Ye Liuyun replied, "You're right; in times of peril, good things should be shared.

But have you thought about it?

After the Foreign Tribe is driven away?

The rampant spread of this secret would only make the world chaotic!

Then everyone would transform; could you tell who is who?

I'm certain there will be ulterior motives, people using this secret for selfish gain!"

"Just getting through this hurdle is enough; why look so far ahead?"

Feng Biao continued to argue.

Mu Yuqing stopped Feng Biao, saying, "Senior Brother Feng, stop arguing; his point isn't without reason!"

Then she turned to Ye Liuyun, "I accept; I agree to sign the Divine Soul Contract! If I offend Young Master Ye, please forgive me.

But this is serious; I must verify first!"

Ye Liuyun nodded, saying little else.

After he and Mu Yuqing signed the Divine Soul Contract, he passed the method to her.

The method can now only be studied by her; she may not practice it, nor pass it to others.

Otherwise, before she finishes practicing or passes it on, her Soul would dissipate together with the method.

Mu Yuqing studied the Thousand Illusion Technique for a while.

The technique wasn't difficult; it was clear at a glance.

Then she examined Ye Liuyun's Soul and confirmed it was indeed a Human Martial Cultivator's Soul, fully confirming it.

Feng Biao asked from the side, "Should the two of them also be checked?

What if this Human is controlled by the Foreign Tribe?"

He was referring to Qiong Qi and Ye Liuyun's clone.
