Chapter 468 Exposed

"Sect master, could it be that there’s some problem with this Origin God Sect?"

Li Yunmu naturally wouldn’t say so, but he had no plan to change his choice because of Profound South Sect not liking his decision.

"There’s no problem."

The sect master of Profound South Sect who was also Lu Tingting’s father, Lu Zhen, shook his head. Clearly, the third tier sect’s sect master knew much more about the situation of Origin God Sect than Li Yunmu

But the two sects had friendly relations, and the other party was a sect of a higher tier. He pursed his lips and didn’t say anything in the end.

Lu Zhen paused for a while before saying, "Although there isn’t any problem, the rules of the Origin God Sect are a little strange. I advise you to consider your choice carefully and pick another second tier sect."

Li Yunmu had gotten information about Lu Zhen from Underground Serpent long ago. He was a sect master who tried to never offend anybody. He liked to cultivate peacefully, without caring about managing other matters.

It could be said that the reason why he had become the sect master was because of Profound South Sect’s elders pushing this position onto him.

With that kind of personality, there was naturally some reason behind sect master’s words. Li Yunmu wanted to enquire further, but Lu Zhen shut his mouth and did not speak anymore.

In the end, Li Yunmu departed without changing his choice, still determined to infiltrate Origin God Sect.

Lu Tingting came out from inside the palace and gazed at Li Yunmu’s disappearing back. She asked with a serene expression, "Daddy, why didn’t you stop him from entering Origin God Sect."

"Didn’t you see him leave? He’s a person who has his own strong views. He had already made his decision," Lu Zhen answered while shaking his head.

He deeply looked at his treasured daughter and added in a slightly lower voice, "Tingting, he isn’t the same Lin Qingyang as before."

"What? Daddy, I don’t know what you’re speaking about. I will go back."

Lu Tingting began to panic after hearing this and left the palace hall in large strides.

Lu Zhen saw his foolish daughter leave and let out a long sigh.

...

After walking out of Profound South Hall, Li Yunmu went down the main peak. Before long, Lu Tingting ran over, catching up with him. The strange thing was that she wasn’t like her usual self, babbling nonsense without any meaning just to attract his attention.

Rather, she was walking just behind him, following without a word.

Li Yunmu tried to catch a glimpse of her from the corner of his eyes and saw that the silly girl was concentrated on his body. Li Yunmu was quite unfamiliar with this type of circumstances. Not long ago, Wang Yan had also been acting foolish like Lu Tingting.

But the difference was that Wang Yan was infatuated with Li Yunmu while Lu Tingting was attached to Lin Qingyang who had died long ago.

Thus, Li Yunmu felt greatly uncomfortable.

But it didn’t matter. The tier jumping battle had concluded and he had obtained what he wanted. He planned to leave with the elder of Origin God Sect the next morning.

When that time came, Lu Tingting’s matter would also be concluded.

At that moment, Li Yunmu’s mind was still focused on the words of Profound South Sect’s sect master. He had wanted to say something but then hesitated, which made it clear that there was some hidden trouble which he was finding hard to mention. This cast a shadow over Li Yunmu’s heart.

He knew that Origin God Sect had many concealed secrets; otherwise, it wouldn’t have caught the attention of Underground Serpent. But Li Yunmu had already made his decision that regardless of anything, he would enter Origin God Sect.

It wasn’t just to finish the mission of Underground Serpent, but also to obtain the method to cultivate the final flux point as quickly as possible. Moreover, he had another reason which forced him to follow through with his choice.

That reason was that he had discovered that Origin God Sect surprisingly had a part of Meridian Nurturing Flux Point Technique. This made him even more determined to infiltrate that place.

But it appeared that Origin God Sect was probably a sketchy region. Li Yunmu had a premonition that he was entering the center of a whirlpool.

Suddenly, Lu Tingting who had been following behind him spoke up. "What are you thinking about?"

Li Yunmu was startled, but immediately replied with a wooden expression, "I’m not thinking anything."

"You seem to be afraid of something."

"Nothing."

"Then why did you choose to go to Origin God Sect?" Lu Tingting asked.

"Who doesn’t want to enter a second tier sect?" Li Yunmu retorted.

"But Origin God Sect isn’t any ordinary second tier sect."

Li Yunmu’s thoughts began to move, and he said, "How is it not ordinary? What’s so different about it?"

"You yourself should know the answer. It’s presently a whirlpool," Lu Tingting said while watching his expression attentively.

Li Yunmu went silent, no longer paying any attention to Lu Tingting. She stayed quiet as well for a time before suddenly asking, "Is he still okay"

"Who?" Li Yunmu had no idea what she was speaking about.

"The Lin Qingyang whom I knew?"

A hint of sorrow appeared on Lu Tingting’s face.

"Dead long ago!"

At that moment, Li Yunmu realized that the woman had seen through his facade long ago and hadn’t been trying to test him.

Thus, he might as well honestly reply to her.

Soon, he discovered that the sound of footsteps behind him had disappeared. He had a profound sensation that Lu Tingting was still standing at the same spot since hearing his words.

Li Yunmu shook his head and thought to himself, Death is also good.

If Lin Qingyang hadn’t died, then based on the information about him provided by Underground Serpent as well as Lu Tingting’s infatuation, he probably wouldn’t have had a good ending.

This was also good for Lu Tingting, but naturally she wouldn’t think like that. Li Yunmu had some understanding about why Lu Tingting hadn’t exposed that he was a substitute, why she hadn’t tried to take revenge for Lin Qingyang, and why she didn’t hate him.

Perhaps, it wasn’t that she hadn’t thought about , but that she didn’t dare to do anything.

Maybe for her dad or for the entire Profound South Sect, she hadn’t done anything.

This was the disparity between first and third tier sects, not to mention that Underground Serpent was one of the top class first tier powers.

Not much later, Li Yunmu returned to his room where a lot of familiar fellow disciples of twenty-first residential region had gathered to greet him.

But seeing his cold expression, all of them made some excuses and retreated.

Li Yunmu didn’t need to entangle himself with Profound South Sect anymore or to care about maintaining a good relationship with others. Besides, Li Yunmu had no need to even impersonate Lin Qingyang anymore.

There was no one who would be willing to impersonate others, only those who regretted their own existence.

Clearly, Li Yunmu wasn’t that type of person. At night, he took out a unique contact wood from Underground Serpent which was a small human figurine.

The height of the carving wasn’t greater than ten centimeters, and a layer of black energy covered its whole body. There was a clear mark on its body, which was an underworld hydra.

That was right, this was a piece of wood which could make contact with Underground Serpent.

Li Yunmu picked it up and applied a little force to make a cut on his finger. He dropped blood onto the figurine, which brought the human carving to life.

It gazed at Li Yunmu with rapt attention. After a long while, it had collected the whole message. The next moment, it nodded and transformed into a black shadow that quickly disappeared into the distance.
