Chapter 2568: Chapter 2560: Differences

Are jealous women really brainless? Feng Jun was a bit speechless.

However, he still attempted to explain seriously, "She asked me if I had deduced her background, and I said it was inconvenient to say it outright. Actually, I could deduce it, but I won’t pursue it further."

"You could have deduced it quietly and not told her," Yi Jue’s reaction was not at all the high and cold goddess of Nascent Soul Peak, but more like a naive high school girl, "This potential threat must be eliminated... Whether you tell me or not doesn’t really matter."

"Please, Immortal Yi Jue," Feng Jun was somewhat helpless, "Do you think if I deduce the identity of a Divine Spirit Powerhouse, she wouldn’t sense it herself?"

Yi Jue was silent for a moment, but then she said, "Your deduction skills are very high... different from others."

"Then I’ll go ahead and deduce," Feng Jun answered without hesitation, "At worst, I’ll get caught... anyway, I can escape."

"I’m not telling you to get caught," Yi Jue’s Divine Sense was very intense, surely over a hundred decibels if converted, "I just want to remind you to beware of villains! Don’t harbor thoughts of harming others, but always guard against them!"

Even though Feng Jun had been among glitz and glamour before, "It’s no big deal, if she discovers me, I’m not afraid of her either. Everyone has their own elders, right? Kill the junior, and naturally, the senior will appear... She has already seen the Sun-Mirroring Glass, so it’s she who needs to weigh her options!"

"Kill you?" Yi Jue was startled, then after a moment she commented, "If you want to die, I’m not stopping you. After all, someone will avenge you."

"Then I’ll deduce," Feng Jun chuckled lightly, "She wouldn’t dare to kill me."

"Wait," Yi Jue stopped him, "I mean your deduction skills are higher than others’, I’m not urging you to deduce."

"Of course you didn’t urge me," Feng Jun responded straightforwardly, "But I don’t want you to misunderstand me... I don’t even know whether the person is male or female. You’re judging me so wrongly."

Yi Jue remarked quietly, "So you want to know if she’s male or female... Fine, go ahead and deduce."

Feng Jun suddenly stopped and pulled out his mobile phone—though he really didn’t need to do this, considering he already had one hidden within himself.

At this critical moment, True Immortal Qian Zhong turned his head with a puzzled expression, "Why stop?"

"I was just thinking of deducing your true form," Feng Jun stated candidly, "We’re about to collaborate... right?"

"My ideal collaborator is someone I can entrust my back to, for the sake of courtesy, I never deduced your true form, but now that cooperation is about to begin, I need to consider... to whom I’m entrusting my back, please understand this point."

"Understand? Haha," True Immortal Qian Zhong let out a laugh with unclear intentions, "Someone’s jealous, isn’t it?"

"There’s no jealousy," Feng Jun denied decisively, "Such low emotions can’t possibly exist among cultivators."

"You could say I’m jealous," Yi Jue, usually so aloof, was very straightforward at this moment, "He’s my Dao companion; your intentions in approaching him, I’m not quite clear on, so yes, I’m jealous, I must find out clearly... you can punish me for disrespect."

"Dao companion..." Feng Jun couldn’t help but clench his teeth, you’re playing it big now.

This is a strategy! He’s very sure... We’ve never discussed being Dao companions, have we?

"You’re overthinking," True Immortal Qian Zhong glanced at Yi Jue lightly, "I truly don’t fear his deductions of my background, for I am stable, but once he sees it... I fear you can’t outmatch me."

"I can’t outmatch you?" Yi Jue secretly gritted her teeth—you know the relationship between Feng Jun and me?

But the words were on the tip of her tongue, and she dared not say them, for a simple reason—fear of failure.

"Forget it," Feng Jun put away his mobile phone, smiled, and shook his head, "Better maintain some respect for the senior, a few minor verbal spats can be let go, some secrets between partners are good."

True Immortal Qian Zhong glanced at him and also smiled, "Young friend sees things clearly, as you wish."

This is the dignified demeanor of a great cultivator, able to fuss over small matters but also able to let go.

In fact, she also sees things clearly; if someone attempts to deduce her background, she wouldn’t constantly monitor them, but now the words have been spoken, if the other party tries to deduce again and gets caught, she can naturally debate it.

If the other party is skillful enough to deduce without being noticed by her, then fussing over it is useless, thus it’s better to handle it this way.

After such an unexpected turn, no one felt like chatting anymore, so they focused on traveling.

Twenty million miles isn’t considered far; it didn’t take long for the four to reach the entrance to the plateau.

Their states were: Feng Jun at Fifth Layer Golden Core, Yi Jue at Golden Core Eighth Layer, Qian Zhong at Nascent Soul Second Layer, and Can Sheng at Nascent Soul Fifth Level.

This combination is relatively common on general planes, Qian Zhong is the main female character, Can Sheng is the old servant, and Feng Jun and Yi Jue are two accompanying little cultivators.

Interestingly, the identities presented by Qian Zhong and Can Sheng are cultivators of the Yuangang Separate Courtyard. If they were impersonating Yuangang cultivators, they’d easily be exposed, but the Separate Courtyard is hard to verify.

So when these four came in, they virtually caused no ripple, smoothly obtaining the Pass Token, ensuring unobstructed travel on the plate.

Qian Zhong and Can Sheng seemed very accustomed to this, entering the plate leisurely, while Yi Jue naturally collected her Divine Sense, achieving a kind of "ignore" effect, with only Feng Jun lacking good concealment methods.

He felt a bit unnatural, but Yi Jue commented, "You’re fine as you are now because you need to sense those from Lingmu Sect and conduct evaluations, constantly restraining your Divine Sense isn’t appropriate, and this isn’t the core plate of Lingmu Sect anyway."

Feng Jun thought about it and agreed, so he wandered around the plate, and when evaluations were needed, he would retreat to a quiet corner, take out his mobile phone, and check if anything or anyone around had any connection with him.

This operation was fine if done briefly, but repeating it for a while became really tedious.

This plate was not small, and after half a day of evaluation, Feng Jun noticed night was approaching and wanted to take a break, "I’ve only explored about 15%, but continuing this way might easily draw others’ attention?"

He had experienced being watched before and felt being cautious was no harm.

"You can rest if you want," Can Sheng casually replied, "but if you think you’ll be noticed, you’re underestimating my Yao Family’s secret technique."

"Why not?" Yi Jue asked solemnly, not arguing but sincerely discussing, "This plate has an aura-locking mechanism; our wide-ranging activities without a clear purpose are likely to be detected as abnormal."

Can Sheng didn’t respond but looked at True Immortal Qian Zhong.

Qian Zhong pondered and said, "This was originally our family’s secret technique and shouldn’t be explained to you, but... I can generally indicate it. Have you understood how the aura-locking mechanism is realized?"

Yi Jue, not a fool, was secretly alarmed. "You can actually... break away from aura-locking?"

"It’s somewhat similar operations," Qian Zhong casually replied, "You know I can’t explain in detail. For now, rest or continue walking; no one will cause trouble."

Feng Jun guessed something, glanced at her, "Senior, are you using... the Heart Bewildering technique?"

"Hehe, more or less," Qian Zhong chuckled lightly, "Don’t ask too much, with us here, just focus on evaluation; actually, it’s more convenient at night, less likely to be noticed."

This wasn’t completely true; night operations were indeed quieter, but Feng Jun constantly switching places for evaluation might actually raise suspicion.

But since a powerhouse promised, Feng Jun wasn’t scared to roam around—at worst, he’d be discovered, but this wasn’t a critical area, even if discovered, it would be easier to handle than being exposed in crucial places.

Yi Jue recalled something, "When we evaluated ownerless treasures, if it were as convenient as now, it would have been nice."

As soon as she said this, Feng Jun stopped, "Here... there’s actually a token related to my evaluation?"

His evaluation token was associated with him and thus sensed.

"That’s not surprising," Yi Jue looked at him in amazement, "Your tokens must be spread across Tianqin, are you saying... people holding your tokens shouldn’t come to Lingmu Sect’s territory?"

"I’m not that domineering," Feng Jun’s expression was peculiar, "But these karmic ties require discernment during evaluation, ultimately quite troublesome."

Qian Zhong and Can Sheng didn’t accompany them, just traipsing behind, hearing the conversation, Qian Zhong couldn’t help but sigh lightly, "Tokens spread across Tianqin... truly, the younger generation is formidable."

Can Sheng’s mouth moved, eventually speaking up, "Ancestor, could this person with a strange fate be the breaker you’ve been seeking?"

"Breaking... isn’t that simple," Qian Zhong shook her head dismissively, "Another era of great contention is approaching, focusing on securing several more strands of opportunities for the Yao Family is the main task; my personal matters aren’t important..."

Feng Jun searched on this plate for five days and nights, the last night reaching where Lingmu Sect disciples congregated but didn’t find anyone suspicious; indeed, many people and things on this plate were connected to him, but none related to assassination.

So they moved to another plate, this time using the transmission—usually inspections during internal transmissions within Lingmu Sect’s territory aren’t that thorough.

However, emerging from the Transmission Array, Feng Jun and Yi Jue’s gaze at Qian Zhong was still somewhat peculiar—generally speaking, a Cultivator of the Out-of-body Great Sage’s true intention should not evade the Transmission Array...

Qian Zhong noticed their gaze, indifferently expressed, "What’s this? Neither the aura of Heavenly Demons nor Insects can stump me."

Upon hearing this, Feng Jun raised an eyebrow slightly, "Won’t the juniors of the senior’s family think of going to the Insect World?"
