The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 623 - 131 She is the Divine Dependent!

The cold gleam that Lin Yun shot out was the Divine Artifact Ingenious Change.

He, Bai Jiaojiao, and Wang Wanqiu rushed over upon receiving the news and saw a swath of blue clouds from afar.

Seeing the blue clouds, Lin Yun’s fear almost got the best of him. There couldn’t be Qing Shui here too, could there!

Fortunately, the blue clouds dissipated just in time, allowing Lin Yun to glimpse the scene within the valley—a purple streak below, with many strange figures being swept away by the waves.

In an instant, Lin Yun recognized it as a Transmission Spell and decisively fired an arrow.

Shoot the horse before the man, capture the leader first. Among the crowd, he immediately spotted the most dazzling target.

The Qiaobian Spear shot out like a dragon, like a meteor, whooshing past and lodging in Yu Jiaolong’s left eye.

Lin Yun’s archery was impeccable. With no obstacles, he could hit someone’s head from eight hundred miles away—not just splitting a willow branch.

Yu Jiaolong’s armor was indeed strong, but it still had a weakness, the eyes with two crystals. The crystals were not fully integrated with the armor, and the transformed arrow shattered them, followed by a tinkling sound.

Feeling the danger, Yu Jiaolong activated the Tai Bai Divine Kingdom’s defensive Divine Arts, Vajra Invulnerable Form. The hit from Ingenious Change was like striking steel.

But it was enough; the defenses were breached.

It wasn’t just Yu Jiaolong’s defenses that were broken, but also Wu Xin’s.

Her power level was far higher than Lin Yun’s, yet she was helpless against Yu Jiaolong, whereas Lin Yun had found the weakness on his first try. Wasn’t this saying Lin Yun was more formidable than her?

"Hmph, it’s just the power of a Divine Artifact. If I had a Heavenly Demon Instrument, would I be in this state?"

Wu Xin felt that if she had a Heavenly Demon Instrument, she would be wreaking havoc already. Previously, she had controlled the entire scene, except for those who had turned into Greenfall Yellow Springs’ green-haired and yellow-haired beings. Wasn’t she sweeping through them all?

With her eye shattered, Yu Jiaolong’s faceplate fell from her armor, clearly indicating the protective crystals were a crucial part of the faceplate.

And as the faceplate fell, everyone saw Yu Jiaolong’s face.

Yu Jiaolong, indeed, had a stunning beauty that could topple nations, but the reason Lin Yun was dumbfounded was that she looked almost identical to Lin Yu.

Not only did they share looks, but their temperament was remarkably similar. If it weren’t for the look in her eyes that confirmed she wasn’t Lin Yu, Lin Yun would have suspected Lin Yu was taking on additional roles.

Wang Wanqiu was also stunned. She recognized this person was not Lin Yu, but given their striking resemblance, there had to be some connection.

However, in just a fleeting moment, the Canghai Mulberry Field Divine Art was activated. Yu Jiaolong’s sharp gaze met Lin Yun’s, and after a three-second stare, Yu Jiaolong and the Divine Realm Inhabitants disappeared from his sight.

Only after the Ingenious Change returned with a whoosh did the stunned group come back to their senses.

"Who is she..."

Wang Wanqiu asked blankly, not so much seeking an answer from Lin Yun, but rather asking out of reflex.

Lin Yun likely had never seen this person before and probably wouldn’t know who she was either.

"I don’t know either."

Lin Yun shook his head, giving an expected response.

Bai Jiaojiao, however, spoke gravely, "Perhaps, Lin Yu is a Divine Dependent..."

Her conjecture was very reasonable. Looking at the purple rift, Bai Jiaojiao had reason to suspect that these strange people were Divine Realm Inhabitants, and they could reach this place only because Ancestor Bai had perished completely. With Ancestor Bai’s protection gone, they had finally broken through the spatial barrier.

According to Ancestor Bai, these people were insignificant, but the truly terrifying one was the person who broke through the barrier a year ago, waking her up. That Divine Dependent had already gone into hiding.

Bai Jiaojiao also knew that Lin Yu had risen suddenly within this year; previously, her Cultivation Level was completely depleted, yet now she had become one of the top powerhouses, almost unmatched.

If she truly was a Divine Dependent or had been possessed by one, that would make sense. Coupled with what they saw now, the identical appearance of the Divine Realm Inhabitants to Lin Yu, how could she not suspect!

Yet, if Lin Yu was a Divine Dependent, how would Bai Jiaojiao confront Lin Yu without getting past Lin Yun?

Bai Jiaojiao spoke seriously about encountering Ancestor Bai, who mentioned the Divine Dependent that descended a year prior. Wang Wanqiu listened and fell into silence, but after a brief pause, she declared with conviction, "Even if that person looks a lot like my master, my master can’t possibly be a Divine Dependent! It’s impossible for her to be possessed by a Divine Dependent!"

Wang Wanqiu knew Lin Yu’s personality best and believed in her willpower. She had fought against the Poison Dragon Gu Worm’s poison with her will for thirty years!

How could a mere Divine Dependent possess her?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

As she spoke, Wang Wanqiu looked towards Lin Yun, hoping for his agreement.

Lin Yun nodded firmly, "Right, it’s impossible. Lin Yu can’t be that Divine Dependent."

Lin Yun added silently in his mind.

If I haven’t guessed wrong, that supposed Divine Dependent should be me...

After all, he fit the timeframe perfectly, and he was the insider traitor from the Canglan Divine Country planted here. It would be strange if it wasn’t him...

Lin Yun couldn’t disclose this, but he didn’t want Lin Yu to be wronged because of him.

Seeing Lin Yun so resolutely on her side, Wang Wanqiu felt reassured. Her master hadn’t misjudged him!

Bai Jiaojiao sighed. Clearly, she would not be able to move against Lin Yu as long as Lin Yun stood in her way. So she would have to find a way to expose Lin Yu herself or to find more compelling evidence.

Like that powerful being who just left.

"Eh, there’s a familiar-looking little cat over there."

To change the subject, Lin Yun looked around and indeed spotted something interesting, like that little cat lying on a tree branch.

What a coincidence!

Wu Xin: "..."

Do you pay attention to the cat but not to me? Am I that invisible?

The touched feelings she had earlier because Lin Yun had come to support her so quickly had disappeared, as had the slight guilt from betraying Lin Yun.

Hmph!

To think I even blabbered nonsense without exposing your true identity!

Wu Xin thought angrily, even contemplating writing an entry in the Sacred Demon’s Manual.

"Today, I got beaten up again by someone who recklessly relied on their treasure to protect them. Hmph, wait until the day you’re not wearing your armor; I’ll beat you to death! Lin Yun, that jerk, ignored me again, it’s so infuriating. Next time, I’ll let him taste the pain of Black Tiger Heart Extraction!"

The draft was ready, but unfortunately, the Sacred Demon’s Manual was in Lin Yun’s hands.

While Lin Yun went off to catch the cat, Bai Jiaojiao didn’t ignore Wu Xin. It was her first time seeing Wu Xin and she didn’t know her identity, but Bai Jiaojiao thought Wu Xin’s petite and cute appearance, coupled with Lin Yun’s hurried arrival and the way he had doted on her when she herself was small, convinced her completely.

Lin Yun really did prefer the petite and cute ones.

Should I try getting smaller next time?

Lin Yun came back soon after catching the cat. The Black Cat was just unlucky. When Canghai Mulberry Field Divine Art was activated, she thought she was in the range and so she didn’t move from the tree. In the end, maybe it was Lin Yun’s arrow or the appearance of the White Dragon, but there was a fluctuation in the divine art, and regrettably, the Black Cat ended up stuck in the tree.

All the Divine Realm Inhabitants left, only the Black Cat remained.

Originally, she thought she could stay hidden in the tree with her hiding skills, but Lin Yun discovered her.

If it had been nighttime, Lin Yun might not have found her, but in broad daylight, a dark lump in the tree was certainly going to attract attention, wasn’t it?

Lin Yun held the Black Cat like a child, and the Black Cat was very well-behaved, knowing she couldn’t escape and might as well accept her fate.

Whatever, I’m just a harmless little kitty after all.

"Are you hurt?"

Lin Yun asked Wu Xin with concern. Wu Xin snorted coldly: "Mind your own business."

Only now do you care about me, where were you earlier!

"Full of energy, I see you’re fine," Lin Yun remarked casually as he petted the cat, shocking the Black Cat. A cat may be killed, but not petted!

I seek a quick death, not this humiliation...

Lin Yun’s casual attitude made Wu Xin very dissatisfied: "You speak as if it’s nothing. Do you know how fierce that person was? She stabbed me with a sword, struck me with thunder, and..."

She hadn’t finished speaking when Lin Yun placed his hand on her head, caressing her and soothingly saying, "Don’t be afraid, I’m here, no one will bully you again."

Wu Xin was stunned on the spot, and then with a smack, she knocked Lin Yun’s hand away.

"What are you doing? Don’t touch me, this Demon Lord doesn’t need your protection!"

This tsundere attitude is really cute.

If it weren’t for the urgent situation, Lin Yun would have liked to tease her more, but with Bai Jiaojiao and Wang Wanqiu watching, and Bai Jiaojiao always maintaining some kind of misunderstanding about him, it was better not to deepen her misconceptions for now.

"What led to the conflict with those people?"

Lin Yun nonchalantly took back his hand, which Wu Xin had slapped, and asked about the incident. This question suddenly made Wu Xin feel guilty.

It was like slacking off during work hours was bad enough, but also taking a side job and getting caught by the boss on the spot, her pay would likely be gone.

Wu Xin organised her words internally and said, "Previously, when you encountered the spatial disturbance in Qinghe City, I felt there was something secretive behind it, so I came here to investigate. By chance, I ran into these people laying an ambush for me. After a life-and-death struggle, I sought your help."

She concealed her true purpose, as Wu Xin did not want Lin Yun to ruin her plans that were close to implementation.

But Lin Yun was as cunning as a ghost, could he be so easily deceived by her?

Wu Xin lacked that confidence.

However, Lin Yun didn’t press her too much this time and instead extended his hand towards her, reassuringly saying, "So it’s for my sake that you came here. You’ve worked hard. Have a drink of blood."

Lin Yun slid his fingernail across his index finger, and a small wound immediately appeared.

Wu Xin looked at Lin Yun’s offered finger, feeling displeased.

Couldn’t you just extract the blood directly? Are you asking me to suck on your finger?

Nevertheless, when a drop of blood seeped from the wound, Wu Xin opened her mouth without hesitation.

This blood is really delicious!

Wu Xin was almost captivated.

"Ah woo ah woo ah woo..."

Because of Lin Yun’s finger movements, Wu Xin let out a cute protest. She hadn’t sucked enough yet!

Wang Wanqiu: "..."

Bai Jiaojiao: "..."

So, Lin Yun likes this kind of thing, huh?
