Starting With 100 Million Lives-Chapter 726 Master of Lanwu Hall

Shu Baiwei now doesn't resist Jiang Cheng at all.

She giggled upon hearing Brother Cheng, and lifted her disguise.

"Guess who I am?"

Seeing her true face, Brother Cheng was baffled.

"Whoa, why is it you?"

Isn't this Shu Baiwei, the girl he met first when entering this Secret Realm?

"Of course it's me, surprised or not?"

Brother Cheng wasn't surprised.

But he was indeed taken aback.

"Why are you pretending to be Gu Yue Xinji? Are you messing with me? Where's the real Gu Yue Xinji?" he asked in confusion.

"Who's pretending?"

Shu Baiwei rolled her eyes at him, then willingly took his arm, smiling brightly: "I am the real Gu Yue Xinji!"

You're Gu Yue Xinji?

Brother Cheng felt thunderstruck.

He glanced at Emperor Cangxu and Bai Wuqi and others.

Everyone nodded to him, confirming without doubt.

Clearly, they already knew Gu Yue Xinji's true face and true name.

Shu Baiwei was still teasing him, "You didn't even recognize me, yet you claimed to be my Daoist Companion, not afraid of embarrassment!"

"But now... I'm actually a bit charmed by you, what should I do?"

What should I do?

What do you mean, what should you do?

How would I know what to do?

Brother Cheng was on the verge of breakdown.

Feels like he was busying himself all day for the wrong person?

Shu Baiwei was rather moved, "You said you came looking for Gu Yue Xinji, and the first person you met here was me."

"Now thinking back, maybe this is destiny?"

Though Bai Wuqi and Emperor Cangxu and others couldn't quite understand, they eagerly agreed.

"That's right, this is destiny!"

"You were meant to be together!"

"Haha, so that's how you became Daoist Companions?"

"This truly is a wonderful tale..."

Everyone kept offering blessings, Brother Cheng was without tears to cry.

He wanted to say he actually found the wrong person.

But saying so might make him look a bit stupid, damaging the brilliant and heroic image he painstakingly built.

Moreover, dazzling Shu Baiwei had already been unexpectedly moved by him.

Now he faced two choices.

Reveal the truth, and push her away?

Conceal the truth, and let things slide?

Worldly Brother Cheng didn't need to think about which option to choose.

"Hahaha, actually I knew you were Gu Yue Xinji from the start."

He surreptitiously wiped a tear from the corner of his eye, and with a complex feeling pulled Shu Baiwei's slender waist closer, rescuing his dignity forcefully.

"I just pretended not to know, fooled you, didn't I?"

"What?"

Shu Baiwei exclaimed, "You already knew?"

"Of course, if I didn't know how you look, how could I jokingly claim to be your Daoist Companion?"

Shu Baiwei finally 'realized', oh, he actually recognized her long ago.

Her last shred of doubt dispelled.

"So you noticed me long ago?" She asked delightedly.

Brother Cheng took a deep breath and nodded solemnly: "Yes, although we haven't met, we've had a long-standing bond!"

"So you really came down here to save me on purpose?"

Brother Cheng nodded earnestly, "Exactly, just for you!"

Shu Baiwei's heart almost melted, she then asked, "What is it about me that attracted you, we hadn't interacted before and yet you're so good to me."

"Everything about you." Brother Cheng gave her a standard answer.

"Wow!"

"Such moving emotions!"

"Sage Jiang truly loves Miss Shu, how enviable..."

Nearby, others were busy egging them on enthusiastically.

Despite his affection-selling, Brother Cheng didn't lose his rationale, he asked the key question.

"Have you seen Lan Ti?"

He hadn't forgotten his original purpose for coming to the Profound Realm.

"Lan Ti?"

Bai Wuqi and Emperor Cangxu and others wore bewildered expressions, unable to remember this person.

Brother Cheng felt he couldn't let this situation continue.

He closed his eyes, trying hard to recall Lan Ti's appearance, then activated the Painting's Profound Pattern.

Yet in midair, without a painting brush moving, a human portrait slowly took shape.

Moments later, a picture with 90% resemblance to Lan Ti finally appeared before everyone.

Upon seeing the portrait, Emperor Cangxu and Shu Baiwei and others were still baffled.

But Bai Wuqi couldn't help but cry out.

"Isn't this the Master of Lanwu Hall?"

"You know them?" Brother Cheng was overjoyed.

"Yes, she was a peerless genius of the White Profound Race who ascended millions of years ago, a Celestial Tier Upper Grade Profound Essence, her cultivation speed was extremely fast, she left a deep impression on me."

Bai Wuqi recalled: "She cultivated an extremely rare Witch's Profound Pattern."

"That's her!"

When Brother Cheng heard Witch's Profound Pattern, he immediately confirmed the identity.

This time there's no mistake.

Sister Lan cultivates witchcraft after all!

Didn't expect she would choose to disguise her identity to infiltrate the Xuan Race just like I did.

No wonder we're family!

He suddenly felt curious, "If she's in the White Profound Race? Why haven't I seen her?"

The Great Sage of Jiang Cheng is already a household name in the Profound Realm.

Especially since Wise Palace sits within the White Profound Race Divine Hall area, Lan Ti could easily hear his name.

Bai Wuqi shook his head regretfully: "She disappeared forty million years ago."

"Disappeared?"

"Yes, she left a deep impression on me."

Bai Wuqi said: "Master of Lanwu Hall always seemed to be searching for something, spending most of her time not in the Divine Hall cultivating, but exploring everywhere."

"Profound Realm's second to sixth-floor Secret Realm danger zones almost all bear her footprints."

"During her last adventure, she never returned, nobody knows where she went."

Brother Cheng quickly asked, "Where was her last adventure?"

Bai Wuqi recalled again, "5th Floor, southwest direction, besides that I don't know. After all, she was an Emperor Profound Realm Palace Master, her personal activities didn't need to be reported to us."

At this point, he realized something.

"Is this Master of Lanwu Hall also Otherworldly People?"

Jiang Cheng nodded: "Yes, she was my old friend."

Looks like later he'll still have to return to the Profound Realm to continue searching.

As for the present...

Since Lan Ti isn't here, better to finish the fight quickly and wrap up sooner.

"You want to retrieve Split Soul, right?"

A few people eagerly nodded.

"Yes, yes!"

"Much obliged, Sage Jiang!"

"Sage Jiang is such a nice person..."

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, great blessings to you!"

Brother Cheng waved his hand, "Don't thank me yet, I don't know where your Split Soul is either, but according to the pattern, it should be within a mysterious space on the 1st Floor of Four-direction Mountain."

"To retrieve Split Soul, primarily relies on yourselves."

"Now I'll lead you into Four-direction Mountain, straight into searching the mountain!"

Search the mountain?

Everyone's faces dramatically changed, showing an expression of fear.
