"One more question." Yi Yong spoke, "Special Envoy, your strength is too conspicuous. A fifth level Great Void Realm's strength will definitely attract the Fang Clan's attention."
Nangong Lie waved his hand and said, "That's fine. I happen to have a technique for concealing one's strength. After Brother Lu learns it, you can disguise your strength to the Origin Realm and it should be fine."
Lu Xuan nodded and smiled, "That's right. Actually, I have been interested in Brother Nangong's technique for concealing one's strength. I just didn't have the nerve to ask."
Nangong Lie laughed heartily and said, "It's just a small trick, there's no need to keep it to yourself. I'll teach you this Cultivation Method. It won't be too late for Brother Lu to act after you've learned it. This time, you're willing to take the risk for our Nangong Clan, so we'll naturally do our best to ensure your safety."
Nangong Lie's words came from the bottom of his heart. Lu Xuan was the Nine Eastern Alliance's Special Envoy. No matter what, he couldn't let anything happen to Lu Xuan. After all, the Nangong Clan still wanted to rely on the Nine Eastern Alliance.
The cultivation method that Nangong Lie taught Lu Xuan had a very fitting name. It was called "Deceiving Others". It could make one's cultivation level drop by one big realm or increase by five small realms. In other words, Lu Xuan could at least disguise his strength as the fifth level of the Origin Realm, or increase it to the peak stage of the Great Void Realm. But the chances of being seen through was much higher than lowering his cultivation level.
It might be a small trick, but when used at a crucial moment, it could produce unexpected results. It wasn't hard to cultivate the Deception Technique, but Lu Xuan wasn't able to master it in a short period of time. Hence, he set a time limit of three days with Nangong Lie.
Within these three days, Lu Xuan would make the best use of his time to cultivate the Deception Technique. Nangong Lie also needed to make some arrangements. Who would follow Lu Xuan into the Red Flame Palace to cause trouble and who would attack outside to attract the Fang Clan's attention.
Yi Yong asked Song Jianbai to send Lu Xuan back to the Nine Eastern Alliance's base to rest, while he snuck back into Red Flame City. He was after all an external elder of the Fang Clan and couldn't disappear for a long period of time. Furthermore, he had to make some arrangements. In addition, Nangong Lie had just informed Yi Yong about some of the spies that the Nangong Clan had planted in the Fang Clan. Even though their status wasn't as high as Yi Yong's, they could still be of some use.
In less than two days, Lu Xuan had completely mastered the Deceiving Method. If a warrior wanted to see through another person's level, they would usually judge that person through their aura, aura, and other aspects. These things were basically instinctive to warriors, and it was very difficult to change them. The Deceiving Method used a unique method to forcibly change these appearances. However, one's level was still there, after all, and it was very difficult to change too much. As such, the Deceiving Method could only hide one's strength by one major level at most.
To increase the cultivation level, one had to mimic the qi presence and presence of that cultivation level. But before one could truly reach that cultivation level, it was still very hard to mimic it. Hence, increasing one's cultivation level was much easier to reveal flaws than lowering one's cultivation level.
Lu Xuan controlled his qi presence to be around the seventh level of the Origin Realm. At his age, being at the seventh level of the Origin Realm was considered a very eye-catching strength, but it wasn't too shocking. He was much stronger than a regular martial artist, but when compared to the true prodigies of the major sects, he was still lacking.
Three days later, Yi Yong returned from Red Flame City. Song Jianbai brought Lu Xuan back to the valley where he met Nangong Lie previously. Today was the day of the mission.
Nangong Lie arrived early as usual. Besides him, he also brought along a few members of the Nangong Clan. These people were the candidates to follow Lu Xuan to infiltrate the Red Flame Palace.
"I have brought the men and the plan is ready." Nangong Lie spoke, "Brother Lu, I will personally follow you in. Even if something happens, I will ensure your safety."
Nangong Lie had thought it through thoroughly. He wanted to ensure Lu Xuan's safety. Naturally, it would be best if he was by Lu Xuan's side. Furthermore, the most important thing for this mission was to create chaos from the inside. On the contrary, the attraction from the outside was just a pretense. He would only be assured if he was going personally.
"It would be great to have Brother Nangong along." Lu Xuan nodded. After a year, Nangong Lie's strength was no longer at the eighth level of the Great Void Realm. He had already reached the ninth level of the Great Void Realm. Under the situation where he didn't encounter those old monsters, his strength was already very shocking.
"Then Brother Lu, please keep us. I will leave the rest to you." Nangong Lie cupped his fist and said.
This time, Nangong Lie brought a total of twenty-five people, including himself. Since Lu Xuan boasted that he could bring people in, the more the better.
The group of people from the Nangong Clan looked at Lu Xuan uneasily. They had heard from Nangong Lie that Lu Xuan had a space that could store people. Although Lu Xuan said it confidently, they had never seen it before and they were more or less worried.
Lu Xuan did not waste any time. He took out the Taiyi Cauldron and activated the skill. The second layer of the Taiyi Cauldron was immediately opened. A misty white light instantly enveloped Nangong Lie and the other twenty-five people. Nangong Lie and the others immediately felt a suction force.
"Don't resist. This force will suck you into my space," Lu Xuan said in a deep voice.
Nangong Lie did not doubt Lu Xuan at all. There was no need for him to doubt him. The Nine Eastern Alliance did not need to use this method to deal with the Nangong Clan. Moreover, he knew Lu Xuan quite well. The Nangong Clan and the Sikong Clan were absolutely irreconcilable enemies, and Lu Xuan and the Eight Cardinal Temple were also irreconcilable enemies.
With a swoosh, Nangong Lie was the first to be sucked into the space of the Taiyi Cauldron. Seeing that their Clan Leader was the first to enter, the rest of the Nangong Clan looked at each other and flew into the Taiyi Cauldron one after another.
Yi Yong was very surprised to see this amazing scene. It seemed that this young envoy was quite capable. If it were not for Lu Xuan, it would not be so easy to take back the Nangong Clan's inheritance even with Yi Yong's help. But now, it seemed like it was in the bag.
"Hall Leader Yi, let's go." Lu Xuan looked at Yi Yong and said.
Yi Yong nodded, then flew up into the air and quickly flew in the direction of Scarlet Flame City. In mid-air, Yi Yong removed the mask on his face and restored his original appearance, which was the appearance of the Fang family's external elder, Zhong Yong.
When he saw that Lu Xuan was still in his original appearance, he couldn't help but ask, "Envoy, don't you need to change your appearance?"
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "I don't think anyone in the Fang Clan recognizes me. If I use a mask, it will be easier to see through my disguise. I might as well stay like this."
