I Am an Undercover Agent

"How could this be!"

Xie Biyan's old face twitched, stunned and flustered by the situation.

This was not the outcome he had expected!

He had initially thought this little girl before him was a fraud with no real substance, but who knew she would be so terrifying, summoning such powerful helpers in an instant.

And listening to these powerful individuals, it seemed they were in a master-servant relationship with this little girl. Had he misjudged her? What should he do now?

Yun Shan and Yun Yun were also deeply shocked by what they were witnessing. The Overlord's Color Haki Ye Qianqian had just unleashed was too potent. It could incapacitate over a thousand people with its aura alone, something even a Dou Venerate couldn't achieve!

Yun Shan secretly berated himself for being an idiot, suspecting their ancestor. Thankfully, he hadn't shown even a hint of doubt, or he would have surely disappointed their ancestor greatly!

"Saber, someone wants to kill me. What do you think we should do?" Ye Qianqian chuckled lightly.

Now that Saber had arrived in time, she had nothing to fear. Her confidence surged. If she didn't show off now, when would she?

"Someone dares to provoke the Master's authority?" Saber pondered for a moment before replying calmly, "That's simple. Your subordinate will kill all these ants for you!!!"

"Boom!"

These words, like a stone stirring a thousand waves, left both the Misty Cloud Sect and Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate forces trembling in fear.

Kill them all?

That was truly an overbearing statement.

"Ding"

Congratulations to the host for obtaining 1000 Shock Points from Yun Shan.

Congratulations to the host for obtaining 1400 Shock Points from Yun Yun.

Congratulations to the host for obtaining 6000 Shock Points from Xie Shan.

Congratulations to the host for obtaining 5500 Shock Points from Xie Biyan.

Congratulations to the host for obtaining...

"Wait, wait... wait a moment."

Xie Biyan was certain he was no match for Saber, let alone the mysterious Ye Qianqian. His eyes darted, and he immediately cried out for mercy, his expression changing once more. He cupped his fists and said, "Esteemed adult, junior... junior was just joking earlier. Please don't be angry, and don't take it seriously."

For a moment, everyone from the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate was speechless at Xie Biyan's sudden change of heart. They felt as if Xie Biyan had become a professional actor, having changed his attitude three times in such a short period.

"What? You think I'm still a fraud, you brat?" Ye Qianqian said with a smile.

"How could I! How could I! Junior was just speaking carelessly earlier. Senior, you are magnanimous, please don't hold it against me."

Xie Biyan shamelessly admitted his fault, completely devoid of any integrity, leaving Yun Shan and his disciple dumbfounded. Where was that arrogance from just moments ago?

Although the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate was powerful, they couldn't match Ye Qianqian's side with ten peak Dou Emperors, not to mention Saber's strength far surpassed Xie Biyan's, making Xie Biyan hesitant to act rashly.

Furthermore, Xie Biyan hadn't even factored in the combat strength of Yun Shan and his disciple. If a fight truly broke out, even if the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate revealed all their trump cards, they might not be their opponents. The only course of action now was to appease them with flattery, apologize, and hope for leniency.

"Good," Ye Qianqian nodded with satisfaction. "To know one's mistakes and correct them is a great virtue. If I were to pursue this further, wouldn't I be bullying the weak and inviting ridicule?"

"Yes, yes, yes. Senior is benevolent and magnanimous, the greatest person of all time!" Xie Biyan repeatedly nodded, giving a thumbs-up.

"If that is the case, are your Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate willing to submit to my Misty Cloud Sect?"

"Willing, will... what?" Xie Biyan was stunned, his eyes widening as he looked at Ye Qianqian. He hadn't expected this to be the purpose of her visit.

Submitting to the Misty Cloud Sect? How was that possible? Their Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate was currently an affiliated branch of the Hall of Souls. This adult actually dared to poach from the Hall of Souls? She wasn't afraid of their retaliation, but he was!

Even without the Hall of Souls, Xie Biyan was extremely unwilling. The Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate had been passed down for seventeen generations since it came into his hands. If they submitted to the Misty Cloud Sect, the name Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate would cease to exist. Wouldn't he be letting down all the ancestors of the sect?

"Put away your petty worries," Ye Qianqian said, seeing Xie Biyan's concerns. "I know your Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate has ties to the Hall of Souls, but the Hall of Souls is beneath my notice. You have no need to worry.

Furthermore, by submitting to the Misty Cloud Sect, your Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate will receive immense benefits. In the future, I will lead you to conquer the world, and you can choose any spiritual land on the Dou Qi Continent. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Ye Qianqian, as always, made grand promises, which were always effective, stirring Xie Biyan's thoughts.

"Old Xie, what should we do?" Xie Shan, standing beside him, was also undecided. If all else fails, should we just surrender?

"Hehehehe... Utter nonsense."

Just then, a disgusting cackle echoed from above them. The entire world suddenly turned pitch black, making it impossible to see anything. Endless ghostly energy let out mournful cries, condensing into black dragons that swirled and charged around them.

Yun Shan's expression grew serious. He was all too familiar with this kind of black ghost, as it was the signature entrance of the Hall of Souls! Vulture Protector had once shown off like this in front of him. Could the newcomer be a strong individual from the Hall of Souls?

The sounds of countless vengeful spirits shook the surroundings, and waves of sinister cold air pierced the bones, showcasing the terror and power of the newcomer.

Ye Qianqian, tightly guarded by Saber and the others, slightly curled her lips. She already knew who had arrived.

Wasn't this Iron Protector, who in the original story had his soul captured by Xiao Laosan and refined into the Heavenly Demon Puppet!

Speaking of Iron Protector, he was a colleague of the Misty Cloud Sect's Vulture Protector. He was usually responsible for the Hall of Souls' market promotion, constantly instigating this sect or signing contracts with that force, extremely skilled in his business.

Seeing Ye Qianqian openly poaching his clients this time, how could he tolerate it?

"With just you lot, you dare say my Hall of Souls is not worth mentioning, and even boast about conquering the world?"

A loud shout echoed from the sky, and the ghostly energy intensified, covering the sun with a dense, terrifying aura, like a living hell.

Everyone's hearts trembled. The Hall of Souls was indeed as terrifying as rumored.

"A mere ant, daring to act presumptuously before this King," Saber sneered. Undisturbed by the spectacle, holy light surged from above her head, a golden radiance shooting towards the sky. An unstoppable aura of kingship, like a river flowing for ten thousand miles, crushed the boundless ghostly energy.

In an instant, the ghostly energy, upon encountering the holy light, scattered as if mice encountering a cat, vanishing without a trace before their very eyes. The sky returned to normal, bright sunlight bathing the land, bringing a sense of comfort.

Stripped of the ghostly energy's concealment, the Iron Protector's figure appeared before everyone.

"You... you can actually counter my Hall of Souls' soul-ghost energy?" The Iron Protector's eyeballs bulged, nearly popping out of their sockets.

He simply couldn't comprehend how the Hall of Souls' techniques, always feared by all, were utterly useless against this person.

In truth, the Hall of Souls' soul attacks were the most sinister in the world, but they weren't without counter-measures. For instance, Heavenly Flames, capable of burning away impurities, or lightning, representing heavenly might, were both nemeses to Yin-evil soul techniques.

As for Saber, the King of Knights, she had slain countless enemies to protect her homeland, her hands stained with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, achieving unparalleled kingly glory.

No matter how troublesome these souls were, they were all crushed and annihilated upon encountering such a powerful kingly aura.

"Ant-like creature, how dare you provoke my Lord's majesty? Then you must be prepared to face the reality of death." Saber moved, her divine battle armor instantly equipping itself. Her armor radiated immense energy, commanding respect.

In a flash, the Iron Protector felt his vision blur. The opponent had suddenly appeared before him, terrifying him to the core.

"Haaaah!" Saber shouted, clasping her hands together as if grasping air, and slashed fiercely at the Iron Protector from a distance.

The Iron Protector paused, thinking, Is this girl an idiot? She has no weapon in her hands, what's the use of making a gesture at me? But in an instant, he felt something was wrong. Relying on his Dou Ancestor intuition, he sensed a flow of air and instinctively took a step back.

Swish

A crack appeared on the Iron Protector's chest, startling him into widening his eyes. This girl was wielding an invisible sharp weapon.

That was indeed the Wind King Barrier. This Noble Phantasm was protected by powerful magic, not that the sword itself was transparent. Therefore, it was difficult for enemies to gauge the sword's attack range. Though simple, it could produce immense effects in close combat.

Having suffered a minor setback, the Iron Protector became enraged and retaliated with continuous Dou techniques, unleashing thousands of black chains from his back, resembling a dance of myriad seductive snakes.

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

Crisp sounds echoed continuously. These dense chains, which even a Dou Ancestor expert dared not touch, were all severed by the young girl before him today.

What shocked the Iron Protector even more was yet to come. He had clearly unleashed his full power, yet this girl before him was still toying with him.

"Xie Biyan, aren't you going to act? Have you forgotten your transaction with my Hall of Souls?"

The Iron Protector could only defend, completely unable to counterattack. His clothes were already torn to shreds, revealing his pitch-black soul body, looking utterly pathetic. He, a dignified protector of the Hall of Souls, was being beaten by a fifteen-year-old girl to the point of being unable to retaliate. This was a profound humiliation.

Knowing he had run into a tough opponent, he quickly turned and shouted for help to Xie Biyan.

Upon hearing Xie Biyan's words, Xie Biyan's scalp tingled. You fight your fight, why are you calling me? Aren't you trying to screw me over!

"Old Xie, do we help or not?" Xie Shan asked.

This question made Xie Biyan's mood even more complicated. The Hall of Souls... he didn't dare offend them. But the ancestor of the Misty Cloud Sect before him... he equally didn't dare offend. What was he to do?

"Saber, stop playing around. Give this disgusting fellow a quick end."

Just then, Ye Qianqian also shouted with mock seriousness, immediately making Xie Biyan choose his side.

Xie Biyan placed his hands on his hips and let out a hearty laugh, "Ahahaha... The Hall of Souls' trash deserves to die. Did you really think this old man would associate with your Hall of Souls? I was merely enduring humiliation, acting as an undercover agent."

Xie Biyan put on a righteous demeanor, cupped his hands towards Ye Qianqian, and said, "Senior, this junior's heart has always harbored a soul of justice. Since childhood, I aspired to uphold righteousness and vowed to fight to the death against wicked villains. I beg you to let this esteemed lady show no mercy, to discipline him as if he were my own grandson. This person and I are not at all acquainted."
