Lighting Lanterns in the Mountains and Seas
Chapter 1121 - 932: Illusion Technique Duel_2
He quickly began to think on his feet, realizing that Huang Yingying might encounter the City Lord after climbing the mountain. Not knowing what arrangements Huang Yingying had made, he immediately retrieved the Mother-child Talisman to urgently contact Huang Yingying, sending a message of urgent warning: The Chai Wenwu coming up the mountain is fake, transformed by Bai Sheng, the Illusion Demon King. Don't expose him; you can't afford to provoke him. Be careful in dealing with it first.
After sending this message, he suddenly remembered Bai Sheng had glanced at his hiding spot before heading up the mountain. Vigilance already heightened, he felt this place was unsafe and stealthily sneaked out from someone's house, urgently switching his hiding place.
He also felt that he might have been away from the Land of Exile for too long, having been at ease for too long, leading to a lapse in vigilance. Left to his own devices in the past, even without the Right Eye Superpower's assistance, such methods wouldn't easily make him fall prey; he would at least seek Feng Chi for verification beforehand.
If not for the protection of the Right Eye Superpower, like a Mountain Sea Bright Lamp, the consequences would be unimaginable!
On Yuling Mountain, upon seeing the message's content, Huang Yingying was shocked. The name of the Illusion Demon King was naturally well-known, and she hadn't expected him to suddenly appear before the Golden-haired Rat Clan, fearful that his intent wasn't virtuous, immediately worrying about her clan's safety.
Sticking his head out of the cave, he saw the figure of 'Chai Wenwu' being led up the mountain and promptly replied to Shi Chun with a message: Master, why is he coming here?
He thought it might be aimed at the Golden-haired Rat Clan.
Shi Chun didn't say he was implicated and replied, asking: Can Demon Eyes see through illusions?
He had browsed through the Demon Book and vaguely recalled that Demon Eyes might have this capability. Now he couldn't remember for sure and didn't know if he was mistaken. He couldn't temporarily refer back to Wu Jinliang's handwritten notes for confirmation.
Huang Yingying replied: There's such a saying. I haven't encountered it or tried it, so I don't know if it works against an expert like the Illusion Demon King.
Desperate to solve the problem, Shi Chun replied with another question: Can your Demon Eyes counter Bai Sheng, making him fall for your illusion?
If the energy of such a big figure can be utilized even a little, the benefits would be huge.
Though dangerous, seizing opportunities amidst crises was also his instinct.
Huang Yingying froze for a moment, looked again at the increasingly close figure, and replied again: I don't know, Master, facing an expert like him, I have no confidence at all. I'm afraid of angering him and bringing disaster to our clan.
Shi Chun replied: Old Huang, since he's here and can't be avoided, face him. At least he wouldn't dare to cause chaos publicly; you might as well try. If things go wrong, I'll use the 'Beidou Refusal Array' to trap him in Yuling Mountain. If we can't deal with him, someone from the Heavenly Court can. As long as he can't escape, he'll become easy prey within the trap and won't dare to act recklessly against the rules.
Upon hearing these words, Huang Yingying felt they made sense because she knew the big array Lord Shi mentioned could indeed trap Bai Sheng. She immediately replied: Alright, I'll give it a try.
Shi Chun asked him to maintain communication and report the situation promptly.
After setting the action signal with each other, Shi Chun retrieved another Mother-child Talisman, intended to contact Feng Chi, to probe what was happening on Chai Wenwu's side.
But after sketching out a few words, he erased them, not wanting to alert the Feng Chi side.
Then he retrieved another Mother-child Talisman and directly contacted Yu Xuanbing, asking him to urgently come down the mountain to assist him.
Shi Chun sitting in this position today wasn't by chance; he had fought with real weapons and accumulated substantial foundation to support himself, or he would've been toppled long ago.
If Bai Sheng dared to act recklessly on his turf, once he engaged the big array to trap Bai Sheng, he wouldn't hesitate to bring in the top killer to permanently leave Bai Sheng's life here.
Coming to Dingnan Prefecture and daring to strike at this Commander was simply outrageous!
So he retrieved the Mother-child Talisman again, contacted Wu Jinliang to secretly come and support him with the 'Void Escape Divine Arrow'.
The Divine Arrow might not solve experts like Bai Sheng, but at least it could create an opportunity for Yu Xuanbing, combined with the Sky Splitting Sword he wielded.
As long as Bai Sheng dares to flip the table, today he's going to let the whole Cultivation World know who dictates the territory of Dingnan Prefecture, determined to ensure Bai Sheng's demise!
Intruders of the Demon Realm causing trouble in the Heavenly Court's territory, with evidence clear, he fought to protect his domain, convinced the Heavenly Court would support him afterwards.
At this moment, Huang Yingying had already appeared to greet 'Chai Wenwu', inwardly tense, but outwardly politely bowed, saying: "City Lord Chai has arrived."
Facing him, her double pupils had become like dark whirlpools ready to swallow.
"I'm coming under orders," Chai Wenwu replied perfunctorily.
Simultaneously, in Huang Yingying's vision, his appearance became an illusion, with his true form clearer than the illusion.
Despite being mentally prepared, witnessing firsthand the fake confirmed the Illusion Demon King had indeed ascended, her heart still skipped a beat.
Yet she felt slightly relieved because the Demon Eyes indeed penetrated the opponent's illusion.
After Huang Yingying waved to dismiss the guiding clansmen, 'Chai Wenwu' asked: "Where is the master?"
After the illusion was broken, the voice that fell on Huang Yingying's ears was no longer Chai Wenwu's, but his real voice. Huang Yingying, trying to act unconcerned, said: "The master hasn't arrived yet, it's inconvenient to talk here, too many people around. Please go inside and wait."
Then led him into the cave.
Having arrived and being led into an unfamiliar environment, Bai Sheng was somewhat cautious inwardly, but not overly so. His strength dictated his outlook; he wouldn't put people like Shi Chun and Huang Yingying in his eyes, glancing around, he followed them inside.
Inside the cave, after asking 'Chai Wenwu' to wait a moment, Huang Yingying turned to leave, lingering her gaze on his eyes again before walking out.
After walking a short distance from the cave entrance, he stopped again, gazing at the thousands of lights within the city, realizing that being with Wu Hehe was fun and carefree, but being with the Master is always urgent and requires quick adaptation, somewhat stimulating.
After taking a deep breath to suppress unwanted thoughts and tension, he resolutely turned back and walked to the cave entrance again.
Once entering the cave, he met the 'Chai Wenwu' inside again.
Bai Sheng within was about to use the illusion technique to go out for a look, but hearing the footsteps, he paused, focusing to see that a stranger had entered. However, he had already been provided information about Shi Chun's appearance.
Upon seeing the person's appearance, he knew Shi Chun had arrived, immediately imitating and saluting, saying: "Master."
Upon hearing this, Huang Yingying, who had been carefully observing the changes in the opponent's expression, finally felt truly relieved, knowing that his cultivation of the Demon Eye Technique successfully suppressed the opponent's illusion technique.
In the duel of illusions, he won!
The opponent, after all, was the king who excelled in illusion, the Illusion Demon King himself. Huang Yingying's heart was filled with excitement, and with newfound confidence, he became even calmer and composed in behavior.
Seeing that the opponent wasn't in a rush to take action, upon Shi Chun's instructions, he asked: "Old Chai, what urgent matter brings you to me?"
