You'll Be Young Master Lu, the Sect Leader from Now On
Choosing a fake Young Master Lu is no easy task.
It's not as simple as just grabbing a Golden Core cultivator from the street. No matter how much an ordinary Golden Core cultivator is under the command of the Emperor Jiang Decree, they can't become Golden Core cultivator like Young Master Lu.
At the very least, one must be at the Golden Core stage with a solid foundation to have room for maneuver.
Secondly, one must know how to use a sword.
When Young Master Lu was wreaking havoc in the Ask Dao Sect, his most eye-catching skill was his Swordsmanship.
And this person does not belong to any major power.
The disappearance of a disciple from a powerful faction is a serious matter.
Therefore, the elders of the Dijiang clan searched for a long time but could not find a suitable candidate.
He noticed Lu Yang carrying a sword.
The High Antiquity Emperor Jiang had already been revived two hundred years ago. Although he unified most of the demon realm in just six months, it was actually the result of two hundred years of accumulated strength.
Over the past two hundred years, the Dijiang clan has secretly gathered various intelligence, including information about the contemporary prodigy.
Whether it's Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou, Man Gu, or Bai Ming of the Five Elements Sect, or Shi Chan of the Hanging Temple, they all know what he looks like.
The person carrying the sword was not among the disciples gathered by the Dijiang Clan; he was either Rogue Cultivator or a disciple of a third-rate force!
Perfect for impersonating Young Master Lu!
The one in the black robe next to him looks to be only at the Body Integration Realm stage; he's nothing to be afraid of.
The elder of the Dijiang tribe secretly made a plan.
With so many people around, it wasn't convenient to take action, so the elder from the Dijiang tribe patiently followed behind the two.
As a cultivator in the Tribulation Transcendence stage, he remains untouched by immortals, and no one can restrain him or detect him.
"Why is someone following us?" The Immortal Fairy frowned, displeased.
Jiang Lianyi nodded. "Indeed, there's someone who's been following us; it should be someone from the Dijiang clan Tribulation Transcendence."
What is he going to do?
Who cares?
"That's true."
The human, the ghost, and the demon continued their exploration of the demon city.
"You can't come in here?"
Lu Yang walked to the center of the demon city, which was separated by a temporary wall a hundred meters high. A powerful demon at the Integrated Body Level was stationed here, and no one was allowed to enter without permission.
"This is the Temple of Heaven, where the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China was held." Jiang Lianyi scanned it with her Divine Sense and knew what it looked like inside.
"It looks like Zhu Tian has lost a lot of blood." The main body of the Temple of Heaven is made of white jade, which is rare even in High Antiquity times, and Jiang Lianyi doesn't have any.
If Jiang Lianyi wanted it, she would need to take raw materials such as sand and gravel to the Immortal of Time to modify the wind direction and temperature, and ask the Immortal of Time to use the Dao Fruit of Time to create a piece of white jade.
"Oh, then we can wait until the founding ceremony to see it," Lu Yang said, adding that seeing it beforehand would diminish the mystery.
"Shall we go stroll down that street?" Lu Yang pointed to the other side of the narrow alley.
"Good."
As the human and the demon entered the passageway, the elder of the Dijiang clan finally seized the opportunity, held his breath, and quickly followed.
He flashed through the air and appeared in front of Lu Yang and Jiang Lianyi.
"Kid, I finally got my chance! I've been waiting for so long!"
Just as Lu Yang was about to react, he saw the elder of the Dijiang clan swiftly take out the Dijiang Token and activate it with his Essence Blood. The High Antiquity Dijiang phantom appeared, almost materialized, baring its fangs and claws, piercing through Lu Yang's pupils, rushing into his mental space, and taking control of Lu Yang.
Holding the Emperor Jiang Token is like having the ancient ancestor himself appear. Not to mention a mere Golden Core cultivator, even a Tribulation Transcendence cultivator cannot stop him!
In the spiritual realm, the Immortal Fairy held the illusory image of the High Antiquity Emperor Jiang in one hand, her expression strange. What kind of strategy was this?
The High Antiquity Emperor Jiang's illusory image appeared as if it were alive, struggling and writhing with its six limbs and flapping its four wings, creating a hurricane in the spiritual space.
Thump--
Without a second thought, the Immortal Fairy slammed her other hand on the head of High Antiquity Emperor Jiang phantom, instantly halting its attack.
"A mental attack at the level of a half-immortal, that's quite something."
The Immortal Fairy was very confident; within Lu Yang's mental space, she was an invincible being.
At the same time, the walls of the mental space flickered with light, and the runes kept changing, as if preparing to launch an attack.
This was a backup plan left by the senior sister in Lu Yang's mental space, ensuring Lu Yang's safety within it.
The High Antiquity Emperor Jiang's illusory image was stopped by the Immortal Fairy, and the runes around the wall dimmed, merging with the wall as if they had never existed.
The Immortal Fairy exerted a slight force with her right hand, crushing the illusory image of the High Antiquity Emperor Jiang.
The High Antiquity Emperor Jiang's phantom image never resisted from beginning to end.
Lu Yang was unfortunately controlled by the Emperor Jiang Order. His eyes were glazed over, his arms hung limply, and his whole body relaxed. He was no longer wary of the old man.
"The same as you!"
The elder of the Dijiang clan then activated the Dijiang Decree on Jiang Lianyi, but Jiang Lianyi was also controlled and did not react.
"What's your name? Which sect do you belong to?" The elder of the Dijiang clan wanted to confirm once again that the person he had found was suitable.
"My name is Yunyang, and I come from the Tianmen Sect."
"Yunyang? No sect or faction," the old man of the Dijiang clan muttered, recalling the information he had on the talents of the Great Xia Dynasty, but there was no one named Yunyang.
"Where is the person next to you?" The elder of the Dijiang clan focused his gaze on Jiang Lianyi, who was dressed in a black robe and whose face could not be seen.
"She is my master, Su Yiren."
"The reclusive Body Integration expert Su Yiren, so it was her." The elder of the Dijiang clan realized. Few cultivators in the Great Xia Dynasty knew Su Yiren, let alone those in the Demon Realm.
Are you skilled with a sword?
"Skilled at."
"You two are very lucky; you've been chosen by the Ancient Ancestor to impersonate the Heavenly Court at the founding ceremony in two days."
"You are no longer Yunyang, but Young Master Lu of the Heavenly Court Sect."
"Yes, I am Young Master Lu!" Lu Yang said firmly.
"Good attitude." The elder of the Dijiang tribe nodded in satisfaction.
"As for you, Su Yiren, you are a Heavenly King Protector of the Heavenly Court Sect."
Jiang Lianyi rolled her eyes from beneath the black robe and ignored him.
The elder of the Dijiang clan paid no attention and continued, "Yunyang, what you need to do is impersonate the Heavenly Court during the founding ceremony, fight against our clan's prodigy, and after a fierce battle, be defeated by our clan's prodigy!"
"Yes, mission accomplished!"
The elder of the Dijiang clan activated the Dijiang Decree once more. "I command you to unleash your full potential at any cost, and to reach the level of Young Master Lu in a short period of time!"
After saying that, Lu Yang's whole body turned red, as if he were on fire, and he collapsed to the ground, curled up in a ball, clutching the clothes around his heart, and let out a heart-wrenching wail.
"It hurts... it's so hot... power... power is surging out!"
Every force comes at a price. Lu Yang couldn't withstand the force and rolled on the ground, beads of sweat the size of beans appearing on his forehead. In no time, his hair was completely soaked with sweat.
Sizzle sizzle--
Lu Yang's body temperature rose higher and higher, and his body heat evaporated the sweat, causing it to hiss and steam.
Amidst the steam, Lu Yang slowly rose, adjusting to the force.
The elder of the Dijiang clan was overjoyed. As expected of the Dijiang Token bestowed by the ancient ancestor, its effect was truly remarkable.
"My lord, I have reached the level of Young Master Lu!"
The second update will be at 11 PM.
