80: Chapter 80: Two More Rank Two Martial Artists Arrest the Fake Person
Head Escort Qian on the side opened his mouth wide, and out came some colorful language: "Holy crap, I pride myself on having exceptional talent—but it's only 17 points. Yichuan, did you freaking hack the game?"
He stared fixedly at Chen Yichuan, his face full of despair, sinking into deep self-doubt.
Seeing the two of them acting crazed and looking so incredulous, Chen Yichuan was just about to say something.
Suddenly, Gu Qingshan's eyes lit up. He waved his arms excitedly and changed the subject:
"Wait, no, Yichuan, the data shows you entered the Mysterious Domain on the sixth day. You happened to awaken your talent on the second day; your talent must be related to spirit."
"And the talent rank is definitely not low; it might even be a Purple-rank talent!! (Talent ranks: White, Green, Blue, Purple, Red)"
Wow.
Hearing this, Chen Yichuan couldn't help but give Gu Qingshan a mental thumbs-up.
Overthinking really is the most lethal thing; he didn't even need to explain.
Taking the opportunity, Chen Yichuan nodded.
Thump.
Seeing Chen Yichuan nod, Gu Qingshan's heart was in turmoil.
One must know that he himself has a Purple-rank talent, so Gu Qingshan knew best what that meant.
Now that Chen Yichuan had nodded in agreement, it only strengthened his determination to befriend Chen Yichuan. At the same time, he silently calculated how to go about it.
'Should I gift Chen Yichuan a martial arts technique?'
This thought flashed through his mind.
Because they had brought up talent, the three of them just chatted for a few moments.
They tacitly avoided continuing the topic and switched to talking about other things instead.
Time flew by.
...
Before long, they arrived at Fengmen Village.
The plane landed in an open grassy field.
As soon as they got off the plane, Chen Yichuan saw soldiers fully armed with live ammunition surrounding Fengmen Village.
The three of them walked to the entrance of the village, and to their surprise, two people had already been waiting for a long time.
They weren't dressed like the military, so there was no doubt—they were the other two Second-rank Martial Artists of the Xia Nation.
"Yichuan, let me introduce you to the other two Second-rank Martial Artists of the Xia Nation."
"Wudang Sect, Song Yang!!"
"Shaolin, Guan Shao!!"
Wudang, Shaolin!
Hearing these two prestigious orthodox sects, Chen Yichuan's heart trembled.
As expected, those who could break through to Second-rank Martial Artist at this stage, setting aside their own talent, didn't have simple backgrounds.
Wudang and Shaolin are the two major leaders among the sects in the Jiuzhou Nation.
To think that players could actually join them—it's truly top-tier.
"Nice to meet you both, I am Chen Yichuan!" Chen Yichuan habitually cupped his hands in greeting.
Song Yang of the Wudang Sect looked like a middle-aged uncle, disheveled, with stubble, and unkempt.
But the long sword he held in his arms made people take a second look; Song Yang was the type of person who stood out in a crowd.
"Chen Yichuan, nice to meet you. I've heard of you for a while and have seen your videos... I have to say, your Body Protection Martial Art is very strong. Let's grab a drink sometime." Song Yang glanced at him and said indifferently while holding his long sword.
"This humble monk is Guan Shao." Suddenly, the bald man standing to the side spoke softly.
After speaking, he closed his eyes to rest, not saying another word, as if his words were gold.
Seeing this, Chen Yichuan didn't say anything and nodded.
The few of them didn't exchange much, and Gu Qingshan got straight to the point: "I won't waste everyone's time. Fengmen Village has four entrances; one for each person."
"Once the target Pseudo-human is discovered, act immediately, and the others will rush over to provide support."
"Remember to keep it alive."
After speaking, Gu Qingshan took a deep look at the three of them, then used his Lightfoot Skill to enter the village first.
The other two didn't linger either and each used their Lightfoot Skill.
When it was Chen Yichuan's turn, he wasn't in a rush. He brushed the dust off his body and slowly walked into the village unhurriedly.
With three Second-rank Martial Artists in charge, he was just a minor character there to watch and prevent any accidents.
Moreover, the Pseudo-human in Fengmen Village needed to be studied; it couldn't be killed, nor could it be turned into martial arts experience.
Chen Yichuan lost a lot of interest.
His goal was clear: he was here to slack off, and by the way, see what the Pseudo-human looked like and how to identify one.
He needed to be prepared when he returned to the Mysterious Domain, after all, Uncle Taohua once said that Pseudo-humans are very dangerous.
Taoyuan Village was almost destroyed because of a Pseudo-human, so being cautious was never wrong.
...
It had only been a few minutes since he entered the village.
Chen Yichuan was walking aimlessly along the village road.
Suddenly.
Boom!!
A house to the southeast instantly collapsed, kicking up clouds of dust.
"Holy crap? Found it this fast? As expected of Second-rank Martial Artists, the efficiency is high."
After saying that.
He used the Grass-Gliding Technique and quickly dashed toward the 'crime scene.'
Tap.
Chen Yichuan landed steadily on a rooftop. He didn't rush to join in, but quietly watched the three Second-rank Martial Artists surround and attack the Pseudo-human.
In the center of the battlefield.
Gu Qingshan was the main force, physically tanking the Pseudo-human's attacks, with a golden shield appearing on his body from time to time.
Song Yang and Guan Shao were guarding the sidelines, occasionally blocking the Pseudo-human's next move.
Thump.
After a violent collision, Gu Qingshan and the Pseudo-human quickly created some distance between them.
Taking this opportunity.
Chen Yichuan finally saw what the Pseudo-human looked like.
The Pseudo-human before him, in terms of appearance, was indeed somewhat different from a normal person.
First, the Pseudo-human's pupils were always different sizes when blinking, constantly changing, and moved extremely stiffly, looking exactly like two glass beads installed in the eye sockets.
Secondly, the Pseudo-human's skin was too perfect; its entire body was pure white, and the blood flowing from its arm was actually pale blue, which shocked Chen Yichuan greatly.
What caught Chen Yichuan's attention the most was that the Pseudo-human had a deathly stillness, with no traces of a heartbeat, no signs of life, giving him an extremely strong sense of coldness, a "no living person allowed near" vibe.
"This is a Pseudo-human? It's very easy to identify."
"I wonder how Taoyuan Village was devastated back then? Is it because the rank of the Pseudo-human before me isn't high enough? Or perhaps..." Chen Yichuan frowned and whispered to himself.
He had thought that Pseudo-humans were very good at disguising themselves as humans, but upon closer inspection.
There were still many flaws.
Just at this moment.
The three Second-rank Martial Artists looked at each other, exerted their strength in unison, and boundless Qi surged out from their bodies.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
The next moment.
The three of them attacked together, trapping the Pseudo-human tightly so it couldn't break free at all.
Seeing this scene.
"Good opportunity!" Chen Yichuan shouted in a low voice and leaped into the air.
He swung the long sword in his hand elegantly.
Bang, bang.
Several sharp sword lights flashed past; Chen Yichuan severed the Pseudo-human's foot tendons and hand tendons one by one, and a large amount of blue blood sprayed out.
Immediately after, the Pseudo-human let out a roar of unwillingness.
"Roar."
"Damn it, I was just a little bit away, just a little bit."
A mechanical voice rang in the ears of the four, giving people a creepy, very uncomfortable, and unnatural feeling.
But that was all it was; none of them paid any attention to what the Pseudo-human said.
Since they had successfully captured the Pseudo-human alive, they could just leave it to headquarters.
They only needed to wait for the results from headquarters.
"Since the mission is over, this humble monk will return to study Buddhist dharma; goodbye, three benefactors."
After saying this, Guan Shao didn't say any nonsense and turned to leave.
"Heh, this fake monk is really heartless. We're colleagues, and he won't even offer to treat us to a drink. Haha, you two, want to grab a drink sometime?" Song Yang said, casting his gaze toward Chen Yichuan and the other person.
"Song Yang, next time. I still need to take the Pseudo-human to headquarters." Gu Qingshan cupped his hands and said indifferently, then began to make a phone call.
