Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?-Chapter 261 - 224: Forgery Craftsmanship
By midday the next day, both Li Qingquan and that middle-aged man seemed to have vanished into thin air, not showing up again.
The cultivators from Unparalleled Tower who returned to report all shook their heads in disappointment.
Ye Hei comforted his fellow disciples a few words, then directed them to keep watch.
"As long as they're still in White Emperor City, they can't hide for long."
Ling Wuce suddenly spoke up after watching Ye Hei finish his arrangements, "If not, you can temporarily use the Palace Guard."
With only so many cultivators from Unparalleled Tower searching such a large city, it's still too difficult.
"Is that okay?"
Ye Hei exclaimed in surprise. He wasn't part of the Imperial Court, so how could he direct the Palace Guard?
"If I say you can, you can."
Ling Wuce replied in a muffled voice. By his status, as Vice Tower Master of Spirit Realm Tower, he could indeed mobilize some Guardian Mansion guards.
Moreover, since Che Dapao and Quan Xiaotong had asked him to take charge of this matter, he naturally could also use the staff from the Guardian Bureau and the Inspectorate.
In no time, more than forty Palace Guards had gathered at the Government Office. Ye Hei left only a dozen for the city patrol needs and dispatched the remaining thirty or so one by one.
After finishing this, a figure hurriedly approached.
Bai Chong'an?
He came in hurriedly and went straight to find Han Yu.
"Uncle Bai, has something happened?"
Han Yu quickly walked up to him, asking.
Bai Chong'an took out a personal item of Bai Jingliang and handed it to Han Yu, his face slightly darkened.
The item was placed at the gate of Bai Mansion in the morning, and besides the item, there were no other objects.
Neither explaining the intention nor making any demands, it was indeed quite frustrating.
Han Yu's expression turned grim. If it was aimed only at him, it would be fine, but they just had to play this despicable game to mess with him psychologically.
"Just wait a little longer. The other party is trying to affect your mindset, which also means Bai Jingliang is safe."
Ye Hei consoled beside him. Such tactics weren't sophisticated but practical.
Once you are anxious, you will naturally have to exchange with him.
Since the opponent had already acted, they would likely come again soon.
Sure enough, by evening, Bai Chong'an once again hurriedly entered the gates of the Government Office, this time carrying a letter.
"I said that scoundrel pretends to be refined; he couldn't just deliver a message without making a fuss over a letter."
Ye Hei and Han Yu rushed out together, unable to hold back from sneering.
The two of them looked at the letter. As Ye Hei had anticipated, it was truly absurd, just a matter of a simple sentence.
"60 li east of the city by 7:00 PM!"
Now both the time and place were clear, and there were about two hours left, which was enough time to respond.
"Do you trust me, Brother Han?"
Ye Hei raised his eyes to look at Han Yu, casually speaking.
Hearing the praise from Ou Mingdong, someone who could entrust him with the stone, naturally, there was no reason not to trust him. Besides, Han Yu had a good impression of him.
Then Han Yu nodded repeatedly, "Naturally, I can trust Brother Ye."
Ye Hei immediately smiled, reached out, and said, "Then Brother Han, lend me the Dragon Blood Stone for a moment, I have great use for it."
Han Yu was very straightforward; as he suddenly reached out, a stone appeared in his palm, stunning everyone present.
The stone wasn't small, and hiding it on him shouldn't have left no trace; besides, it seemed Han Yu just conjured it up out of thin air.
"What kind of magic is this?"
The zealot of debates, Ling Wuce, was the first to widen his eyes. Compared to the Dragon Blood Stone, this trick of Han Yu's intrigued him even more.
"Just a small trick."
As it concerned the Ping, Han Yu couldn't say much, and the ability to store items in the Sea of Consciousness was not something anyone had claimed to be able to do, so he couldn't reveal it. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
"I can return before 7:00 PM, make sure to wait for my return before we go."
After taking back his awed gaze, Ye Hei quickly grabbed the stone and didn't forget to remind them before going out.
"You know a lot of bizarre things."
After he left, Ling Wuce then clung to Han Yu again, which was the most troublesome part for Han Yu.
Debate, he wouldn't discuss even if beaten to death.
"I heard that the Great Elder of Unparalleled Tower consumed a pill crafted according to the twelve cycles of the Heavenly Dao; you've hidden your depths well! You're well-versed in the workings of the Heavenly Dao."
In Ling Wuce's eyes, Han Yu designing such a pill must have meant he had a unique insight into the workings of the Heavenly Dao.
"Senior, I just stumbled upon it by chance; I definitely couldn't create another identical pill."
Han Yu could only look earnestly at him; he wasn't lying, he absolutely couldn't create another pill that was exactly the same.
"If you won't discuss, then forget it."
Ling Wuce glared at him, turned around sulking, thinking 'My path is so lonely indeed!' This kid always keeps secrets, and he doesn't want his Pill Formula or secrets, just a friendly debate is so hard.
A group of people waited straight until after 7:00 PM, only to see Ye Hei rushing back, when he left clutching one stone, returning with two packages.
He strode into the outer hall, placed the packages on a desk before opening them.
"Can you guess which of these two is real?"
As soon as he finished speaking, two identical stones appeared before everyone's eyes.
"This..."
Huangfu Liang stepped forward and felt both stones, incredibly surprised. He used to own the stone and even slept clutching it, yet now he couldn't tell which was real or fake.
When he tried to touch it with True Essence, Ye Hei quickly stopped him.
"Don't, touching it will give it away immediately."
"What on earth is going on?"
