Ye Haochuan and Shentu Fu investigate Netherworld Mountain, a heavily guarded area rich in spiritual herbs and rumored to contain a Supreme Treasure. They learn that access requires a special Jade Token. After two days of waiting, they encounter Ma Yi, a familiar face and a qualified candidate to enter the mountain, who is delivering herbs to his master.

“I have a small matter to discuss. I want to ask for your help. You…”

Ju Yuqu suddenly spoke up, addressing Ma Yi.

“This…”

Ma Yi said with some difficulty, “My master urgently needs medicinal herbs, I’m afraid…”

Usually, he would gladly help Ju Yuqu, as everyone in the Temple knows how favored Ju Yuqu is, with even other Demi-God Cultivators rarely seeing a Divine Artifact, Ju Yuqu has as many as two.

Even a small treasure leaking from Ju Yuqu’s hands would profit cultivators of Ma Yi’s level greatly.

But today was different; he was eager to enter Netherworld Mountain to broaden his knowledge and really did not want to do anything else at this time.

“Don’t worry, at most it will delay you the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, and afterwards, I will give you a High-Level Sub-Divine Instrument as compensation!” Ju Yuqu said calmly.

“High-Level Sub-Divine Instrument?”

Ma Yi’s heart suddenly pounded rapidly.

His cultivation level was only at the Quasi-God Early Stage, and his most powerful magical treasure was just an Early Stage Quasi-God Artifact.

If he could really obtain a High-Level Sub-Divine Instrument, his strength might double.

The key point was that it wouldn’t take much time, earning a High-Level Sub-Divine Instrument with just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea—where else in the world would such a good deal exist?

“Since Young Master Ju has spoken, I should do my utmost!”

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Ma Yi tried to maintain a calm demeanor, asking, “May I ask Young Master Ju, what would you like me to do?”

“Follow me, and you’ll understand when we get there!”

Ju Yuqu didn’t say more, and directly turned toward the mountain where Ye Haochuan and Shentu Fu were hiding.

Ma Yi found it somewhat strange but did not suspect anything and quickly followed.

This peak was only ten or so miles from Netherworld Mountain. The forest was dense, but devoid of the spiritual qualities of Netherworld Mountain, with few medicinal herbs, so few people there.

As Ma Yi followed Ju Yuqu’s figure to land, he saw Ye Haochuan looking at him with a strange expression. He was terrified, retreating while saying, “Ye Haochuan, why are you here?”

Then, he suddenly turned to Ju Yuqu, saying, “Young Master Ju, this person is a major criminal of the Temple, quickly capture him!”

Since the incident at the South Sect, Ye Haochuan’s Wanted Order spread throughout the Immortal Realm.

Ordinary cultivators might only treat it as gossip, not knowing why Ye Haochuan was wanted. But the Danxi Alliance, having connections to the Temple, understood the full truth.

Since the Danxi Alliance once included Ye Haochuan, several of its senior members underwent investigation.

As for Hua Wen, who personally recruited Ye Haochuan to the Danxi Alliance, he was directly imprisoned in the Temple’s Sin Prison, reportedly subjected to harsh torture daily.

Knowing so much of the inside story, made Ye Haochuan appear as a plague god in his eyes, a plague god he held grudges against but couldn’t rival.

His only hope was that Ju Yuqu, a member of the Temple, could capture the “rebel” Ye Haochuan.

But a surprising scene unfolded, Ju Yuqu not only refrained from attacking Ye Haochuan but instead thrust his sword, slicing off Ma Yi’s head.

Poor fellow, till his death he didn’t know why Ju Yuqu would assist a “rebel” against him.

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but laugh, as Ma Yi provoked him before, and now he’s unexpectedly being useful.

Checking Ma Yi’s ring, he indeed found a Jade Token to enter Netherworld Mountain.

“It’s done!”

Ye Haochuan felt delighted in his heart, using the Art of the False Face to transform into Ma Yi, and donned Ma Yi’s clothing.

“You first go to the Minor World and wait. I’ll release you once I’m inside!”

Ye Haochuan put Ju Yuqu back into the Donghua Immortal Domain, and told Shentu Fu.

“Be careful!”

Shentu Fu exhorted.

Ye Haochuan nodded slightly, collected Shentu Fu into the Donghua Immortal Domain, then tidied his clothes and flew toward the entrance of Netherworld Mountain.

“Take out the Jade Token and hand over all your belongings for our inspection and record!”

Approaching the seal, a Demi-God Cultivator guarding the place stated coldly.

“Alright!”

Ye Haochuan, with a respectful demeanor, took out the Jade Token and removed his ring, handing them over to the cultivator.

He appeared very serene, yet no one knew how tense he actually felt.

His focus was fully on the God Lord Cultivator, worried that this guy could see through his Art of the False Face.

He evidently worried too much, considering the power of the Art of the False Face aside, the God Lord Cultivator hadn’t looked at him at all.

He overheard the cultivator complaining to another Demi-God Cultivator, “What the hell, this time the medicinal herbs harvested in Netherworld Mountain are only split into one-tenth for our Gong Family. I’m a watchdog for them every day, for what damn purpose?”

“You should speak less, if someone from the Temple hears, it’ll be troublesome!”

The Demi-God Cultivator turned pale, whispered, “The Temple is strong now, we can’t resist. For now, it’s prudent to bite our tongues and swallow bitterness!”

“Bite what bitterness, we’ve been a lackey for thousands of years, has the Gong Family risen yet? I think the Family Head’s been kneeling too long, he can’t stand anymore. Just wait, when the Temple’s squeezed the Gong Family dry, let’s see how he cries!”

The God Lord Cultivator growled angrily, “Like Xu, Geng, and Baili, those three families have guts, daring to challenge the Temple head-on. Unlike us, oppressively being human’s lackeys!”

The Demi-God Cultivator wanted to say more, but ultimately just shook his head, ceasing his advice.

Ye Haochuan was a bit surprised, glancing at the God Lord Cultivator, thinking this Gong Family isn’t entirely devoid of integrity.

If given the chance, this guy might be of use someday!

Using the Jade Token, he opened a meter-wide door in the seal and walked through slowly.

As Shentu Fu had said, there were still more than a dozen Temple cultivators in the hall, silently observing him.

Ye Haochuan’s heart hung again, among the team were three God Lord Cultivators, if any discerned anything, he’d have no time to flee.

He was seasoned through great trials, although his heart quivered with fear, his face remained calm, greeting them each with courtesy as he flew slowly toward the depths of Netherworld Mountain.

Fortunately, these people didn’t seem to notice anything suspicious.

Being Ma Yi’s first time here, naturally, they wouldn’t recognize him, negating any suspicion at first glance.

As he was inwardly relieved, someone brushed past him.

He originally didn’t pay much attention, but the person suddenly turned and asked, “Have we met before? Why do I feel your aura is very familiar?”

Ye Haochuan turned in confusion, looking at the person who stopped him.

The next moment, he gasped sharply.

Damn, how could he be here?

Even if little master didn’t burn incense before leaving home, the luck shouldn’t be this bad, right?
