Chapter 1590: Chapter 9: Candidate to Impersonate Fang Che
Thumb bends down.
"Two!"
The index finger bends down.
Yan Nan was quite confident, Sun Wutian was merely led into the trap by him, but he himself was definitely not stupid.
Therefore, he would surely react soon.
Sure enough, Yan Nan had only counted to ’five’ when Sun Wutian’s message arrived.
"Fifth Brother, isn’t this wrong?" Sun Wutian said, "I just thought about it for a while, and this thing requires me to go personally?"
Sun Wutian emphasized the words ’personally’, saying, "Fifth Brother, when you’re arranging people, didn’t you think? I’m going to disguise? I’m personally going to disguise? This... this is a bit too messed up, right?"
Sun Wutian was quite angry: "Fifth Brother, is there really no one available under you? Just catching me alone to do it? You’re trying to squeeze urine out of a toad here?"
Yan Nan smiled, picked up the Communication Jade, and replied.
"Why don’t you know what’s good or bad?"
Yan Nan reprimanded, "Do you think pretending to be Fang Che is a simple matter? Going alone to an unfamiliar continent, only saying Fang Che’s blade and technique, who else can pretend?"
"Moreover, going there will mean continuous battles, not just the issue of patrolling that continent. Fang Che going on a mission alone, isn’t it the best time for an assassination?"
"Don’t tell me you can’t imagine how many enemies Fang Che has? How many people from the Guardian’s big Shi Families has he killed lately? Even though it’s official business, if it were you, wouldn’t you hate him?"
"Others from big families like Feng Yu Xue might have scruples, but what scruples would they have against Fang Che? He has no background."
"I could indeed send someone else, but first, the imitation might not be convincing and might expose us; second, if the assassination succeeded, how could Fang Che return? If you’re beheaded here and show up perfectly fine a few days later?"
"Who else would I look for but you?"
Yan Nan lectured Sun Wutian extensively.
Since you already agreed, do you still want to get out of it?
"In conclusion, you’re the only one who can handle this."
Yan Nan concluded.
Sun Wutian was deeply troubled: "Fifth Brother, I’m Fang Che’s mentor’s ancestor... With such a high status, I... I’m supposed to impersonate a junior, am I disregarding my face?"
"Do you still need face with me?" Yan Nan asked.
"Then am I supposed to disregard face with Fang Che?" Sun Wutian countered.
"There are only the two of you in your vein, what face do you need in front of Fang Che?" Yan Nan countered.
Sun Wutian was going crazy: "But in front of others, can’t I, Sun Wutian, maintain my face?"
"No one else knows, what face are you worried about?"
Yan Nan said, "You’re worrying a bit too much."
Sun Wutian was stunned.
How, while talking, did it become that I’m the only one suitable for this?
And my face... seemed not considered at all?
"Fifth Brother, I feel this matter should be reconsidered."
Sun Wutian made a final effort.
"Nothing to reconsider. It’s settled!"
Yan Nan decisively concluded, "Alright, you go be busy, with such a successor, you should be secretly delighted... Given a task, you still push back and forth indeed..."
"Fifth Brother, I’m not pushing back, what I mean is..."
"If you’re really unwilling, I’ll swap Fang Che under Baizhan Blade’s name, let Baizhan Blade impersonate then."
Yan Nan threatened: "In any case, whoever goes does the same tasks."
"What nonsense is Baizhan Blade! Daring to snatch my disciple!"
Sun Wutian roared in anger: "No way!"
"Then what do you suggest, even if you handed Fang Che to Duan Xiyang, I could still have Duan Xiyang disguise, I’m confident in that."
Yan Nan said confidently.
"Duan Xiyang is even more out of the question!" Sun Wutian wouldn’t let it be Duan Xiyang either.
How could I let my successor go to Duan Xiyang?
After hesitating for a long time: "I’ll go, I’ll just go. But I have a condition."
"Not agreeing!"
Yan Nan bluntly refused, having precisely grasped Sun Wutian’s character, now having Sun Wutian firmly in hand, why would he additionally accept any conditions?
"Whether you agree or not, I still have to do it!" Sun Wutian raged, "The families that killed Fang Che’s mentor, I’ll have to wipe out! No matter what, even if Fifth Brother you act as their bodyguard, I can cleanly take them out."
Yan Nan compromised: "Fine then... they aren’t big families, are they?"
"Some aren’t small."
Sun Wutian seethed with killing intent.
"Doesn’t matter, have you investigated clearly?" Yan Nan asked.
"Investigated clearly, Feng Yun mobilized family resources to investigate, it shouldn’t be wrong." Sun Wutian replied.
"Feng Yun..."
Yan Nan sighed, damn it, why does this Feng Yun have to be everywhere?
"How many families?"
"About fifteen or sixteen families."
"Unacceptable!"
Yan Nan was furious: "Just killing an Emperor Level Sun Yuan, you need fifteen or sixteen families to conspire together? Are you viewing your descendants as some kind of big figures?"
Sun Wutian was indifferent: "Our Wei Wo Zheng Sect has thousands of families, what’s killing ten or so? Fifth Brother, if he isn’t killed, I won’t feel at ease, my thoughts won’t be clear."
"Even so, it’s not right!"
Yan Nan’s biggest headache is the internal strife within Wei Wo Zheng Sect; but it’s always been this tradition.
If a few families were to vie against each other, like cultivating Gu to stand out and swallow other families, Yan Nan wouldn’t respond.
But like Sun Wutian’s overbearing use of power to wipe out families, isn’t that a sheer loss of Wei Wo Zheng Sect’s strength?
"Wutian, sometimes it’s unwise to be too harsh." Yan Nan advised.
"But they’re still plotting to kill Yemo!" Sun Wutian said: "If we don’t kill them, they’ll act sooner or later."
Yan Nan was silent for a moment: "Then do it your way."
"Alright."
The matter discussed here was already decided.
"When you’re impersonating Fang Che, don’t reveal your demon aura!"
Yan Nan warned: "Be righteous, people-oriented, sympathize with the poor masses, be fair and just, be incorruptible!"
"Above all, don’t casually massacre a city... nor kill with a mere glare..."
Sun Wutian immediately got annoyed: "Fifth Brother, do you think I’m a three-year-old? I’m just acting!"
"Anyway, you should communicate with me anytime, to help Yemo do his job well."
"Got it, got it."
Sun Wutian was still somewhat annoyed, not willing to stay and listen to Yan Nan nagging any longer, decided to leave.
"Once you’ve done stinking, go find Fang Che, that guy’s probably in the Wan Ling Zhi Forest now. But by the time you’ve done stinking, he might not be there."
Yan Nan said.
"Can you stop saying ’done stinking’ all the time?"
Sun Wutian was extremely displeased: "You’re making me feel like I’m already dead, the body is rotting over there, and soon even the stench is gone, completely decayed..."
"Get out!"
"Alright!"
With the matter of Fang Che handled, Yan Nan’s mood improved.
He ordered: "Temporarily ignore Wu Daotian, come back and have some drinks, let’s also discuss rewards for this Cultivating Gu to become a God champion."
Then he remembered: "Today is the second, right? Tomorrow is the day of Dong Changfeng and Li Yao’s duel."
"Report on the battle at Qipan Mountain immediately, regardless of the outcome."
...
Wei Wo Zheng Sect’s worries were relieved.
But Fang Che faced the greatest crisis of his life.
After leaving the valley, Fang Che set out to return home.
To him, since there’s no more trouble here, naturally he should return early; this trip felt like a man going to market; planned beforehand what to buy, once bought, promptly returns home.
No procrastinating, no wandering around aimlessly.
But less than three hundred miles out, while maintaining his habitual vigilance, he suddenly sensed someone ahead.
Fang Che quickly dodged, but it was too late.
Because as soon as he sensed the presence, the other person noticed him as well.
Suddenly, the pace quickened.
Fang Che veered twenty miles to the side, feeling a pressure overhead like a mountain, a figure descending from the sky.
"Which young one dares appear in this Wan Ling Zhi Forest? What’s your purpose?"
Fang Che turned to look, saw clouds and mist swirling around the person’s collar, like a Jade Palace.
This outfit resembled the Heavenly Palace attire he had seen before.
Heavenly Palace people.
And to avoid trouble now, or encounters with Guardians, he’s disguised as Yemo.
Short stature, stout, with a face full of coarse hair, looking nothing like a decent person.
He stepped back two steps, saying: "I’m just a cultivator from the mountains, my elder at home is gravely ill, came to search for medicinal herbs, no need for concern, senior."
The person replied coldly: "What kind of illness requires coming to Wan Ling Zhi Forest for herbs? Are the city’s pharmacies lacking such herbs? Seems like your elder’s injury is quite advanced."
