Chapter 987

Infiltrate Ghost Gate

“Brother Mu Yu, don’t look. I don’t like looking like an old hag.”

“Don’t worry. Everyone interprets Hundred Faces Illusion Formation differently, so I still see you as yourself even though I gave you Duan Baiqing’s face.” Mu Yu, who assumed Tian Xingzhou’s appearance, mischievously grinned.

“Mu Yu, don’t be Momo, please. I’m sorry. I’m sorry.” Xiaoshuai curled his lips.

“This is what you get for betraying me. Get inside my shirt. It’s time to sortie.”

Xiaoshuai saw a black fiend ape’s claws instead of Mu Yu’s hand when the latter reached out. Accordingly, Xiaoshuai hung onto Tian Ran’s clothing and cried, “Stay away. I’m sticking with Sister Tian Ran.”

“Hehe.” Mu Yu transformed Tian Ran’s face. “Look up at her face.”

“Ah!” Xiaoshuai fell onto his bottom upon looking up to see Momo.

“Are you all right?” Tian Ran crouched down to pick Xiaoshuai up, but Xiaoshuai shook his head as if he was gunning for the most shakes per second record.

“That’s it. You think you’re the only one savvy with formations?!” Xiaoshuai jumped up to try and undo the formation on Tian Ran; however, Mu Yu whacked him aside.

“That’s a reminder to not sell me out again. Next time, I’ll give you to Momo.”

“Come on. Don’t bully Xiaoshuai. Xiaoshuai is just a kid,” chided Tian Ran.

“A kid? He’s the sword spirit who used to travel with your father!”

“Yeah, but he’s lost his memories. He’s now a reincarnated kid.”

“Ah, whatever. I can’t be stuffed with a naughty kid.”

Xiaoshuai climbed onto Tian Ran’s shoulder to undo the Momo transformation. “Now we’re talking.”

“You stay with Tian Ran while I go to Ghost Gate, then.”

Tian Ran had to stop further away from Ghost Gate than Mu Yu since she could not take shelter in trees, while he infiltrated.

Three Ascension Realm cultivators, meaning there are only two threats in addition to Granny Meng. I can let Elder Meng take care of her, but I wonder if she’s still even alive at this point in time. If she’s cold in the ground, we have to opt for an alternate plan, Mu Yu inwardly noted.

Mu Yu, having camped for two hours, zipped over to a young Spirit Severing Realm disciple, Gui Yuehu, who returned from a soul collection mission when he received a notification that elemental demons would assail Leisure River City in three days’ time. Taking control over Gui Yuehu with Divine Soul Formation, Mu Yu, now hiding inside the disciple’s shirt as a branch, demanded, “Take me to Ghost Gate. You lot sure are amazing, even knowing when elemental demons will besiege cities. How many Ascension Realms are there in total in Ghost Gate?”

Though Mu Yu heard there were three Ascension Realm cultivators a few days ago, there was a chance that one or more cultivators had upgraded since then.

“Three,” replied Gui Yuehu, heading to the tomb.

“Who are the three?”

“Besides our patriarch, that would be Lords Gui Mingze and Gui Huanyin.”

“What about Granny Meng?”

“I do not know. She only guards the bridge, though.”

Stupid me for asking. Members don’t cross the bridge again after entering, so how would they know? This is bad. This means there are four Ascension Realm adepts, not three. I need to be extra alert. I guess the good news is I know how to deal with Granny Meng this time, Mu Yu inwardly said. Once they descended the murky stairs, Mu Yu left Gui Yuehu’s shirt and, after some deliberation, ordered, “Wait for me outside in case I need you.”

Knowing that Granny Meng could sense his presence even if he tried hiding due to her sensitivity to souls, Mu Yu decided to confront her straight up. He sneaked across the bridge to go recruit Elder Meng, but something perturbed him, compelling him to head back across the bridge.

Why are there two Ascension Realm guards?

“What’s the rush?” Granny Meng cut Mu Yu off with her repulsive walking stick in hand.

“Elder Gui Yuzi told us Mu Yu might infiltrate. He never said anything about an old man sneaking in. Senior Sister, are you sure you have the right information? I would prefer to not have spent the last year here in vain.” Gui Huanyin, a young-adult maiden adorned in red that matched her scarlet hair trailing down to her hips and scarlet lips, sauntered over to join Granny Meng from the other end of the bridge.

I think… I’m in trouble, not control… I should’ve figured Gui Ximing must’ve told Gui Yuzi! Mu Yu inwardly brooded.

“Doesn’t matter who it is. The rule is everyone who comes here must drink my soup!” declared Granny Meng, summoning a bowl of soup with her walking stick.
