In the blink of an eye, Yun Qi transformed into the visage of Long Yuan, and Ma Nanshan took on the appearance of He Qing. With Chu Xuan's abilities, altering someone's appearance was effortlessly done.
Ma Nanshan was almost in tears, "Why do I have to be the woman?"
Yun Qi coughed lightly, "Long Yuan and He Qing are a couple, and He Qing often initiates flirtations with Long Yuan. Remember that well, Nanshan."
Ma Nanshan, "..." frёewebnoѵēl.com
Chu Xuan casually produced two transmitting jade slips and taught them how to use them, "Take these, and transmit any information you gather through them."
"Yes," Yun Qi and Ma Nanshan both nodded solemnly.
"Go, you are Long Yuan and He Qing from now on," Chu Xuan said with a smile.
The two bowed and departed. From that moment on, Yun Qi and Ma Nanshan were considered dead. Yet, being formidable in strength, they had severely wounded the Dragonfly Squad before their supposed deaths. Of the ten members of the Dragonfly Squad, only the leader Long Yuan and the vice-leader He Qing survived.
"You seem to recognize the master?" Yun Qi asked quietly.
Ma Nanshan nodded, "It was a long time ago. I encountered... the master through a Psionic block. But he never spoke. I didn't expect the master's soul power to be so immense! Now I understand why the master never spoke; he probably saw through it as a trap all along."
Yun Qi nodded in agreement. He couldn't help but look back toward the direction of the Yellow Springs Soul Refining Formation, feeling that their new master was profoundly mysterious and utterly inscrutable. Working for him seemed like a wise choice.
...
Chu Xuan pondered thoughtfully. These two were merely pawns in a larger game. After all, the Ascendant Faction was now barely a few cats and dogs. Even without gathering their intelligence, it wouldn't significantly impact his plans.
However, the intelligence gathered from Soul One, Soul Two, Soul Three, and Soul Four was crucial. It related to the scale of measures Chu Xuan would need to employ against the Slaughter King and the Greedy King—whether he needed no preparation at all and could strike directly at the heart, or if he should slightly enhance his power before acting, or even reveal his full hand and proceed as if it were a prolonged war.
"Hmm? Is there good news from Blue Star?" Chu Xuan perked up upon receiving new information from Wang Zhenxu.
Deciding to leave a small portion of his soul on Soul Star, he immediately stood up and summoned Wang Zhenxu.
Moments later, the chief of the Black Blade Nine-Person Council knelt before Chu Xuan, his expression barely concealing his excitement. "Immortal! The harmonization technique was successful!" He presented a stack of thick papers to Chu Xuan.
With a simple gesture, Chu Xuan levitated all the papers in mid-air. He skimmed through the text swiftly, absorbing every word.
After a brief moment, Chu Xuan showed a slight hint of surprise. He had read through the technique and found it entirely viable—so much so that it could be practiced immediately without any modifications.
"Who developed this harmonization technique?" Chu Xuan inquired.
Wang Zhenxu replied respectfully, "An elderly man from a place called Ma Baoguo. He has a keen understanding of this matter, so I had him brought to the Enlightenment Institute from the Holy Light Theocracy branch."
