The fat vendor pointed behind the demon expert and laughed foolishly. The expert didn't suspect anything and really looked behind him.
However, there was no one behind him. Before he could react, he felt a blow to the head.
"I said it's behind, so it's behind. Why are you so stupid?"
The demon expert, still dizzy from the beating, turned around and saw that the fat vendor had already transformed into Ye Zichen.
He didn't even have time to release his divine awareness to notify the other demons. Another blow smacked him in the head.
The demon expert could only point at Ye Zichen's blurry face, tilt his head, and fall to the ground.
"I knew you weren't smart. You're so easy to fool."
He dragged the Devil Race expert to the side of the street and stripped him clean in a few moves. Not long after, from the entrance of the alley, a person who looked exactly like the previous Devil Race expert walked over.
"That's much easier now."
This person was naturally Ye Zichen's incarnation. Leaving the city at the speed of a moth was too slow.
If he'd transformed into a commoner, given Gu Li's level of caution, he wouldn't have let him leave the city. Instead, he would've investigated him thoroughly.
Only if he transformed into his subordinate would he be able to use his diviner cultivation without arousing suspicion.
Glancing at the Demon Race expert who had been stripped naked in the alleyway, he lightly crooked his finger and sent him into the Yao-Subduing Pagoda.
There was no way he could destroy the corpse!
It was best to be cautious and avoid using divine power if possible. He'd toss him into the Yao-Sealing Pagoda first. As for the rest, that could wait until they left the city.
"What a foolish old man."
Ye Zichen couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. He'd thought it would take some effort to deal with him. He hadn't expected it to go so smoothly.
"Li Ju!"
"Li Ju!"
Suddenly, several shouts echoed through the sky. At first, Ye Zichen didn't have time to react. It wasn't until someone landed beside him that he realized Li Ju was the demon's name.
"So it's someone from the Jiuli."
Ye Zichen muttered to himself, then averted his gaze.
Transforming into Li Ju was just the beginning. This was the most important thing. He needed to use these demons to test whether or not the demon experts would see through his disguise at close range.
They were getting closer and closer!
Although Ye Zichen did his best to hide his emotions, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Li Ju, what are you waiting for? Did you find him?"
The two demon experts descended. These two demon experts were also in the Celestial Being Realm, similar to Li Ju himself.
"I didn't find it. Come down and rest," said Ye Zichen.
"Then why aren't you looking? Do you still have time to rest?" The taller demon expert said. "It's fine to rest for a while. We've been searching for four hours. If the person the Sacred Master found was really proficient in spatial dao techniques, he would have escaped long ago. Even if he doesn't run, he's at least at the Ruler level if he can use Space Dao Arts. Wouldn't we be courting death if we ran into him? "
A devil expert said.
"Shut up!"
The taller Demon Race expert glared at him. "If Saint Master hears this, you're dead."
"Let's talk among ourselves," the shorter demon expert said.
"It's better to be careful. You and I shouldn't waste too much time here. Even if it's just for show, we still have to get busy. " "Li Ju, don't rest. If the Sacred Master sees you, you'll be in for a treat."
As soon as he finished speaking, the expert from the Demon Clan flew away.
The shorter Demon Clan expert patted Li Ju's shoulder and flew off in another direction.
"Heh!"
As he watched the two demons leave, Ye Zichen couldn't help but wipe his lips and smile.
The Seventy-Two Transformations really was a divine technique!
The two demon experts stood in front of him, yet they couldn't tell that he wasn't Li Ju, but rather Ye Zichen. But when he thought about it, it made sense. When he'd transformed into a pebble, Gu Li and so many other demons had been present, but hadn't anyone noticed him?
On the way here, Ye Zichen had been rather worried. Would they really let him go so easily?
Ye Zichen scratched his head, then didn't tarry any longer. He hurried to the gates of Greenwave City. On the way, the demons he encountered didn't pay him much attention. Instead, they used their divine senses to carefully search the city.
An hour later.
As Ye Zichen hurried at top speed, he could vaguely make out Greenwave City's walls.
At the rate things were going, he'd be able to break free in less than a hundred breaths of time.
"Is it really that simple?" Ye Zichen didn't dare imagine it.
"Li Ju!"
At that moment, someone called out Ye Zichen's name from behind him.
On the way, Ye Zichen heard his name repeatedly, but no one had noticed his disguise. This time, he didn't take it seriously at all. He turned around and looked back.
Unexpectedly, the person rushing towards him was Gu Li.
"Holy Master."
Ye Zichen didn't dare be negligent around an old rival like Gu Li. Ye Zichen bowed respectfully, then looked down and quietly waited for Gu Li to arrive.
"Is there any news of Ye Zichen?"
"Not yet!" said Ye Zichen.
"If there's no news, then why are you in such a hurry to leave the city? I thought you'd heard that Ye Zichen had left, "said Gu Li.
He'd actually suspected that.
Ye Zichen's heart jolted. He'd been in such a hurry to leave the city that he'd forgotten about this.
"I just thought that if we couldn't find him after so long, he might have already left the city. That's why I wanted to search outside," said Ye Zichen.
"That's not a bad idea. It's been so long, he might really have left the city."
Ye Zichen hurriedly nodded.
"Alright, then go out and take a look." Gu Li waved his hand with a smile. Ye Zichen nodded as if he'd just received an imperial edict. However, before he could take more than a few steps, "Wait, who was the person you told me about last night? I forgot. Can you remind me again?"
"......"
Ye Zichen, who'd just turned around to leave, instantly stopped.
He narrowed his eyes and looked in Gu Li's direction, only to see that Gu Li was smiling back at him.
"I really nearly let you get away. You've mastered the Seventy-Two Transformations quite well. Ye Zichen?"
"I can't believe you noticed."
Ye Zichen chuckled, then returned to his original appearance. His eyes were filled with regret.
"I thought you'd learned the Dao of Space, but I forgot you had the Seventy-Two Transformations. Ye Zichen, you're really something. You tried to play me in the dark? You've got guts!" said Gu Li.
"I almost got away," sneered Ye Zichen.
"Got away? That's impossible. In truth, I've long since set up an inescapable net outside the city. Once you're outside, you'll be more likely to be exposed, "said Gu Li.
"Is that so?" said Ye Zichen.
"Of course!" Gu Li nodded.
"Are you sure about how the Great Sage managed to get into the city?"
"The Great Sage? Trying that trick again? That's no good, is it? "laughed Gu Li disdainfully.
"It's true. If you don't believe me, turn around and take a look. That stick is about to hit you. If you don't get out of my way, I'm afraid it'll smash your skull in."
Gu Li's expression changed. He reached out with his divine sense, then instantly froze.
