Chapter 413 - Changing Endlessly

"It's fine." replied Zhong Yue carefully, "We have some urgent matters, please pardon us."

The pretty woman then said, "I see … Then I will not hold you back anymore. That's right. I have yet to know your name, my friend from the monster race. It is really rare to see a True Spirit level monster in the West Barren."

With a cough, Zhong Yue said seriously as he introduced Gu Hongzi, “This is Gu Hongzi, he is the guest of the elder priest from our clan.”

"I see, Xuan Su has also heard of your name, Junior Martial Brother Gu Hongzi… You have become quite famous after your battle with Shi Buyi. I truly admire you. You will surpass Shi Buyi in the future for sure."

Zhong Yue then said measuredly, "Senior, the elder priest is still waiting for us, we have to go now."

The pretty woman no longer forced them and replied, "Go, please pass my regards to the elder priest."

Zhong Yue behaved obediently, and as he walked towards Gu Hongzi who was still measuring the pretty woman, Zhong Yue quickly dragged him away.

"Junior Martial Brother Zhong, she looks familiar…." asked a puzzled Gu Hongzi.

"It feels like I've seen her somewhere else before, but I just can't recall it. Strange … Really strange!"

Qi Practitioners all possessed incredible memories; thus, it was impossible that Gu Hongzi would not remember the lady if he had seen her before.

Without saying anything, Zhong Yue dragged Gu Hongzi with him, and after flying away for almost a hundred miles, Zhong Yue finally let out a breath of relief, "Senior Martial Brother Gu Hongzi, you've met her once. And it was very recent. The true spirit of Zhu Yushan, that Insect Mother Queen, and this lady both have the same face! This Gu Diao Celestial Race lady who calls herself Xuan Su is the gigantic insect that escaped from the Black Mountain's Secret Realm!"

The memories flooded back into Gu Hongzi's as he recalled everything about this lady; when Zhu Yushan summoned his true spirit, the head of his true spirit had the head of a demon lady.

And the pretty woman he met just now looked very familiar because she had the face of a celestial race, thus, although they looked alike, Gu Hongzi did not think much about it!

But now, after being told by Zhong Yue, he immediately remembered everything!

"I can't believe she actually hid within celestial races of West Barren!"

Gu Hongzi exhaled deeply and murmured blankly, "The Gu Diao Celestial Race is one of the biggest races in the West Barren. But who would've thought that no one realized that the Insect Mother Queen had infiltrated their clan and rise to occupy a high post within their race! God knows if she has discovered our disguises…."

"Of course, she has! We pursued Zhu Yushan, and he slowed down because of this celestial temple. But Xuan Su immediately killed him after they encountered!"

"Obviously, she knows that we were pursuing Zhu Yushan and so decided to kill him before he could expose her secrets. She invited us into the celestial temple as dead men tell no tales. If we were to enter the temple just now, we would end up as nothing but crushed flesh and blood!"

Gu Hongzi then added, "She invited us into the temple in an attempt to eat us inside, which means that there are barely any survivors of the Gu Diao Celestial Race, or she runs the risk of exposing her real identity."

Zhong Yue nodded and said again, "The Insect Mother Queen's reproductive ability is extremely terrifying. God knows how many she's given birth to since escaping the secret realm. It's normal that she's taken over the entire Gu Diao Celestial Race with her insects! Since she knows about us, she will definitely not let us go away so easily!"

Gu Hongzi turned around, and as he looked at the direction of the Gu Diao Celestial Temple, he replied, "The only reason she never attacked us was to keep her real identity a secret. However, after we leave the territory of the Gu Diao Celestial Race, she will have her chance to attack us. But judging by the speed she showed when she killed Zhu Yushan…."

"I will be no match for her. Things will be even worse if she is in her true form. Junior Martial Brother Zhong, you've been very good at planning since the beginning? What do you suggest we do now?"

With a bitter laugh, Zhong Yue answered, "You overestimate me, senior martial brother. I might still be able to kill her if she stands still without resisting. Otherwise, I won't be able to anything against her either ... Wait!"

All of a sudden, Zhong Yue's eyes lit up as he said, "I have an idea! There are celestial temples everywhere in the West Barren!"

Upon hearing Zhong Yue’s idea, Gu Hongzi also laughed and asked, “You mean….”

"That's right! We will enter the celestial temple of the many celestial races out here! No matter how powerful she is, she will not risk waking up the slumbering godly spirits in the West Barren! I've received the million gods' picture of the Bai Zhe Clan so I can disguise as any celestial race to enter their celestial temple! As for you…."

"I will have to ask you to disguise as my servant," said Zhong Yue with a polite smile.

Gu Hongzi then nodded, "Doesn't matter. I really need to disguise myself because there are quite a lot of people out there that can recognize me."

As he spoke, his body shrunk, and his face turned old as he became a middle-aged monster. Besides that, he restrained his power as well to match that of a servant and followed beside Zhong Yue who was disguised as a young man Zhu Jian Celestial Race.

Zhong Yue quickly inspected Gu Hongzi and suggested, "Senior martial brother, your strength is still too much, you have to suppress it by a little more."

Gu Hongzi nodded and did as Zhong Yue suggested, bringing his strength down to Heavenly Dharma level while Zhong Yue gazed a thousand miles away with his divine third eye.

His divine third eye enabled him to see what others couldn't, and as he opened up his divine eye, he saw an eagle's view of everything within a thousand miles from him in his line of sight, including a few celestial race's people.

After comparing the appearances of these few celestial race's people with the description of the million gods' picture, Zhong Yue said, "In front of us is the Bi Fang Celestial Race and one of their temples. Just follow this path, and we will be there in no time!"

The two then started rushing towards the front, and before they got close to the Bi Fang Celestial Race's place, Zhong Yue turned into a Bi Fang Celestial Race's Qi Practitioner and headed straight to the temple with Gu Hongzi!

At the same time in the Gu Diao Celestial Temple, the pretty woman, Xuan Su had a mirror placed in front of her showing both Zhong Yue and Gu Hongzi.

And when she saw Zhong Yue turn into a Bi Fang Celestial Race's Qi Practitioner, and she hesitated before putting her hands into the mirror and took it out immediately as she said, "What a cunning boy…."

Suddenly, a thunderous noise came from the skies above Zhong Yue and Gu Hongzi, and when they looked up, a strange-looking insect with a huge clamp on its head was staring at them maliciously!

Their face changed immediately, and at this crucial moment, a single legged fiery bird flew into the skies and turned into the single legged Bi Fang Celestial Being that charged straight towards the insect with a blazing divine aura!

"Who are you! How dare you harbor ill intentions towards my people!"

With a loud battle cry, the celestial being looked towards the insect which quickly disappeared back into the void.

Zhong Yue and Gu Hongzi then thought to themselves in relief, This really worked out well! But this old ancestor of the Bi Fang Celestial Race might be too strong! He is as strong as Demon Saint back in his peak form! This old ancestor might be someone incredible back in the old days! I wonder if my disguise can hide from this godly spirit of the Bi Fang Celestial Race. If I can't, then things won't be any better than before….

Fortunately for them, after the insect disappeared, the Bi Fang Celestial Race's godly spirit looked away and returned to the celestial temple, quickly disappearing again. Within the blink of an eye, everything had returned to normal save for the priests of the Bi Fang Celestial Race as they were still in a panic about what had caused the reappearance of their old ancestor.

In the midst of chaos, Zhong Yue and Gu Hongzi quickly got away through the back door of the celestial temple, and they rushed towards the next celestial temple.

Meanwhile, Xuan Su was still paying close attention to them as she suddenly said to herself, "I am curious about the number of forms you can change into. You might be able to change your appearances to that of the Bi Fang and Zhu Jian Celestial Races, but how many more do you have in your bag?"

Next was the Lu Wu Celestial Race, and when Zhong Yue passed through their border, he took the form of the Lu Wu Celestial Race and walked into the celestial temple just like that.

Xuan Su then bit her lips as she wanted to make a move but was too afraid to do so.

Previously, just when she attacked the two of them, she immediately drew the attention of the Bi Fang Celestial Race's godly spirit and almost exposed her location to the godly spirit. With that, she dared not recklessly act as there were still many slumbering godly spirits all over the West Barren. And with her strength as it was now, she wouldn't be unable to go against all of them at once.

If she were exposed, the plans and everything that was done by the Insect Race for all these years would be flushed down the drain within seconds! Xuan Su could not afford this risk, even if she were desperate to kill Zhong Yue and Gu Hongzi!

"Let's see how long can you keep this up, Zhong Yue!" Xuan Su smirked as she forcefully bit her lips.

But what caused her eyes to twitch and spasm again and again was that Zhong Yue seemed to be able to change his appearance into every celestial race he came across. In fact, not only did Zhong Yue changed his appearances, but he also altered his aura to match each of the different celestial races as he needed to. Thus, he was able to safely slip through every territory he came across without so much as a hitch.

"What a great talent. You can become a thief like this, junior martial brother. This is like an art that is perfectly suited for thieving bandits!" Gu Hongzi said suddenly.

"If you transform, enter their celestial temple, and steal their treasures, you can definitely make a considerable fortune.

Zhong Yue was momentarily stunned before realizing the genius behind what Gu Hongzi said. He then replied, "That's right. If I turn into one of them, I can easily steal their treasures… Wait… This celestial race here is…."

"Xiao Mang Celestial Race!" Zhong Yue looked towards the front with his divine third eye.

In front of them was the territory of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race, one which occupied a considerable portion of the West Barren. Their land, however, shrunk severely after the old headmaster of Swords Gate killed the Xiao Mang elder priest.

"Perhaps, I can steal something from their celestial temple," said Zhong Yue as he looked at the Xiao Mang Celestial Temple.

“What do you want to steal?” asked a puzzled Gu Hongzi.

Zhong Yue looked at Gu Hongzi for a few moments before suddenly blinking his eyes and answering, "A lady."
