My Father Is Definitely Possessed

Chapter 586 - 271: The Ji Family Makes a Move!

"If it’s really Li Hengsheng, then we’ve made a great achievement!"

The man beside him said in surprise: "If we report the discovery of Li Hengsheng to the Longevity Sect, the Archbishop will surely reward us handsomely."

"Reward?"

Ji Qingzi sneered upon hearing this, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "When I previously attempted to assassinate Li Hengsheng and used the Pupil Technique, I was blind for half a year, and the Longevity Sect ignored me, with not even a bit of reward from the Archbishop, only letting me stay with the Ji family for half a year."

"Protector..."

The man beside him wanted to say something, but thinking of the events of the past two years, he indeed didn’t know what to say.

"Wu Fei, you have been following me since I joined the sect." Ji Qingzi looked at the man beside him and said, "I’ve treated you well, haven’t I?"

"The Protector has been good to me." Wu Fei quickly replied.

"Listen, if we report this matter to the Longevity Sect, it won’t benefit you or me. The Archbishop won’t credit our efforts, but if our Ji family obtains this opportunity, it will be different." Ji Qingzi said calmly.

"Protector, you mean to have the Ji family capture him?" Wu Fei quickly asked.

"It was just a fleeting glimpse, and I only felt that person should be Li Hengsheng. I can’t confirm it now; you go investigate first." Ji Qingzi said.

"Yes!"

Wu Fei turned and left.

Ji Qingzi also sat at the tea stall, pondering something silently.

It wasn’t until noon the next day that Wu Fei returned.

He had thoroughly investigated the matter concerning Li Hengsheng and came to report to Ji Qingzi.

"Protector, there’s something troublesome about this person."

Wu Fei recounted the situation to Ji Qingzi.

"Li Yun?" Ji Qingzi raised his eyebrows at the name, then said: "This person named Li Yun, is from the Southern Wilderness? And he’s currently the leader of Ghost City? In that case, the situation is indeed troublesome. If we want to take him without alerting anyone, it won’t be easy, as the City Lord of Ghost City is not an easy character to deal with."

"But Protector, this matter is very strange."

Wu Fei shared his speculation: "If this Li Yun is indeed Li Hengsheng, how could the City Lord of Ghost City not know? Previously, Realm Master Cangyuan had sent Li Hengsheng’s portrait all over the Cloud Wasteland, and Ghost City must have received it too. Yet even so, they didn’t do anything to Li Hengsheng; it’s quite illogical, isn’t it?"

"It is a bit strange."

Hearing Wu Fei’s words, Ji Qingzi also felt a bit doubtful about his assumption; is such a big opportunity really something he could pick up?

"Moreover, Lord Zhou of the Longevity Sect is also here. He was Li Hengsheng’s third senior brother. If Li Yun is Li Hengsheng, how could Lord Zhou not know? He would have reported it immediately." Wu Fei explained.

"There’s also another possibility." Ji Qingzi took a sip of tea from his cup and said: "Lord Zhou is covering for Li Hengsheng; after all, they are fellow disciples. If Lord Zhou wants to protect him, the previous two points are easily explained. Currently, Lord Zhou is the Governor of Ghost City; if he managed to replace the portraits, then naturally no one would recognize Li Hengsheng."

"Uh, this..." Wu Fei frowned and said: "That should be unlikely, right? Lord Zhou has made significant contributions to the Longevity Sect over the years, just to prepare for when the ancestors can be revived so that his brother can be resurrected first. For his brother, he has forsaken everything. Now, for Li Hengsheng, he wouldn’t forgo such great credit, would he?"

"The mind of the Human Race is difficult to fathom."

Ji Qingzi shook his head: "Whether this Li Yun is Li Hengsheng can be determined with a test."

"A test?"

Wu Fei looked at Ji Qingzi curiously.

Ji Qingzi took out a letter, handed it to Wu Fei, and said: "Deliver this letter to the Ji family quickly, and request experts from the Ji family to come here."

"Alright." Wu Fei was already on the same boat with Ji Qingzi at this moment and naturally followed orders.

Li Hengsheng unknowingly had already been targeted.

Even Lord Zhou didn’t know someone had set their sights on Li Hengsheng.

The days continued peacefully, and in the following two months of cultivation, Li Hengsheng had transformed eighty percent of his Innate True Essence.

With just the last twenty percent remaining, Li Hengsheng could transform his True Essence to a perfect state.

Feeling that the day was approaching, Li Hengsheng was very excited.

However, Xue Qianbai had taken the Qishan Order to ask the Ghost Lord of Qishan to find something, and there was still no word, even after coming to the Cloud Wasteland, Li Hengsheng learned about the true nature of the Ghost Lord of Qishan.

The Ghost Lord of Qishan, said to be of the Ghost Race, never involved himself in Ghost Race affairs and never targeted the Human Race, focusing solely on cultivation.

He was truly a cultivation fanatic.

Moreover, this Ghost Lord of Qishan was once a member of the Long Night Ancient Kingdom, one of its ancestors, who later left and secluded himself in Qishan. Even on the night when the Long Night Ancient Kingdom was overrun by the Longevity Sect, the Ghost Lord of Qishan showed no reaction.

Rumor has it that the Ghost Lord of Qishan is the world’s number one; if he were interested in Realm Master Cangyuan, even Jiang Tianyun at his peak might not have been a match for the Ghost Lord of Qishan.

But this is just speculation among the people.

Also, this month, Li Hengsheng received an order from General De Kang to lead his squad captains to recover a large tribe.
