The moment Yunxi's identity was exposed, she knew her cover had been blown. She simply stopped pretending and restored her true appearance. Beside her, Di Fei followed suit, dispelling her illusion disguise and returning to her original form before explaining softly:
"My name is Di Fei. By order of the Ghost King Baili, I detoured through Shui Qiancheng. Ranxi and I had been targeted by the Evil Immortal because of the Yunrong Workshop incident, so we disguised ourselves to evade their eyes and ears. We never expected to uncover an even deeper Evil Immortal plot after arriving in Qian Shui City. We had no choice but to resort to this measure. I hope the Ghost King Qianji will not blame us."
Di Fei spoke with considerable confidence, mainly because the Ghost King Qianji had already fallen victim to Menglan Jun's scheme and her divine soul was currently rather weak. More importantly, the Ghost King Qianji before them was a split soul, whose strength was one realm below that of the main soul. In other words, Ghost King Qianji was currently at the Ghost Lord Realm. If Di Fei and Ranxi joined forces, they would be fully capable of fighting her.
Ghost King Qianji's pale green eyes swept over the two women before finally settling on Ye Yuchen, whose soul had left his body. The purple flames surrounding his divine soul reflected in the depths of her eyes. She let out a light breath and said, "Although all the Immortal Practitioners in Shui Qiancheng have fallen asleep, this state likely will not last long. Such a tremendous upheaval will surely draw attention as well. What do you intend to do next?"
Yunxi could tell that Ghost King Qianji's words meant she tacitly approved of their actions and would cooperate with them.
