The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 43 Su’e

Arriving in the Cultivation World, Lin Yun had never before encountered such a beautiful ghost.

It’s a pity she’s so good-looking but a ghost. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"I am not a ghost."

Just as Lin Yun thought that, the apparition spoke before him.

Indeed, she could see right through his thoughts.

"I do not possess mind-reading."

"I believe you, my ass!"

Although the female ghost was attractive, Lin Yun wasn’t the kind of person who let his principles be swayed by appearances.

This woman sure didn’t seem like any good!

"It is only when you think of matters related to me that I can know them; if you don’t think about them, then I am unaware."

"Really?"

Lin Yun decided to try it out in his mind.

Let’s randomly think of something related to this apparition, shall we!

Speaking of which, this apparition doesn’t have a body, can she even... you know?

Involuntary thoughts of all sorts filled Lin Yun’s mind.

"You... are truly rude!"

Lin Yun heard an embarrassed and annoyed voice.

Holy crap, it actually works.

Did this count as flirting with her?

Lin Yun’s thoughts ran even wilder, wondering if the female ghost was wearing real or illusory clothes, and what it would look like underneath if they were to be removed...

"I have never seen such a shameless person!"

Lin Yun’s suicidal move clearly infuriated the shadow, and with a wave of her hand, she froze him completely, bringing his thoughts to a halt. His mind cleared of stray thoughts, as if entering a sage’s moment of enlightenment, thinking nothing at all.

"Sister Immortal, I was wrong."

Lin Yun quickly admitted his mistake in his mind.

"I am not a fairy either."

"Then you are...?"

"I am a Divine Spirit, you can call me Su’e."

"What a lovely name! So, Sister Immortal, can you withdraw your Divine Skills now? I’m kind of afraid of the cold."

Su’e: "..."

Why did my fated one have to be this guy?

This was the first time Su’e felt displeasure due to her Divine Spells.

What was usually one of the Divine Spirit’s most potent innate gifts...

Thought begets feeling.

But who could have imagined there would be someone whose mind was full of dirty thoughts?

This is blasphemy!

And she was the most pure and unblemished among the Divine Spirits; if it weren’t for Lin Yun being the one she was waiting for, she would have brought down divine punishment upon him without hesitation.

Merely freezing him temporarily was already merciful.

Su’e sighed and still retracted her Divine Skills.

"There isn’t much time left, go get the Moon Water Spirit Pearl and leave this place quickly."

Su’e originally wanted to talk more with Lin Yun, but now she was out of the mood.

Just hurry up, grab the treasure and get lost.

"Uh, this, can I really take it?"

Lin Yun was somewhat skeptical; he had read the stele, which claimed this was a land of seals, and if by taking the pearl he released some unmanageable creature, it would be the end of him.

Su’e, for her part, actually thought better of Lin Yun in this moment. The lad had a commendably just heart, not being tempted even by a treasure, acting with enough caution.

She figured, if he didn’t have such a character, he would probably be unable to fulfill such a destiny.

If only he weren’t so lecherous.

As Su’e thought this, she casually called the pearl that was floating above the altar to her hand, showing that she didn’t need Lin Yun’s help to take the Spirit Pearl.

Holding the Spirit Pearl, Su’e showed a hint of nostalgia, but she quickly returned to her cool demeanor and handed the pearl to Lin Yun.

"Being cautious and suspicious can save your life but also make you miss many opportunities. With this Spirit Pearl, you will be able to avoid many detours in the future."

Su’e earnestly said, "Divine artifacts possess spirit. In the future, if you encounter something of the same origin as this pearl, it will sense it. If it shows repulsion and dislike, it definitely signifies a malevolent place, and you can make your judgments accordingly."

Lin Yun’s eyes lit up. There were such good things? Then it was like he had a radar, right?

Having experienced the time in the Dragon Tomb, Lin Yun had gained a deeper understanding that in the Cultivation World, many opportunities sometimes turned out to be traps.

That’s why he hadn’t been eager to come down when Su’e had previously called for him.

This opportunity had truly been forced into his hands by Su’e.

Lin Yun also thought of a saying.

Every gift from fate has its price secretly marked; the only question was whether he could succeed in getting it for free.

Still, Lin Yun accepted the spirit pearl. Once in Lin Yun’s hands, the glow of the pearl actually subdued and it gradually shrank to the size of a ping pong ball—a transparent sphere.

"What’s the use of this spirit pearl?"

Lin Yun observed it for a while but didn’t notice anything special.

"You’ll know once you eat it, but, that should wait until after you’ve escaped from danger," Su’e advised.

"Escape danger?"

Lin Yun had a bad premonition.

"Since your arrival and the awakening of me, the sealing energy has been leaked. The Abyssal Demon Creatures have sensed it and are already approaching this way. The demon creatures at night are endless, and those people above are too strong to defeat. Now is still the time to get away."

"Abyssal Demon Creatures?"

Lin Yun discovered yet another new setting.

He felt like a newbie just out of the starting village, unfortunate enough to keep running into various big bosses, like Su’e, a Divine Spirit, who should only be encountered and unlocked after reaching max level, right?

If this were a game, that is.

Lin Yun mentally ranted in frustration. Before, he had thought as long as he stayed in Yellow Wind Valley and hid in the water when danger loomed, he’d be safe. Now, that flag was instantly triggered.

Yellow Wind Valley had become the most dangerous place.

"Can’t I just hide here?"

"No, I will soon seal this place. Otherwise, if those demon creatures arrive and the seal becomes contaminated, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Lin Yun: "..."

Great, just like me to never find peace wherever I go.

He had thought of Yellow Wind Valley as an excellent place for cultivation; now the valley was about to be no more.

Lin Yun didn’t linger. Making a swift decision, he asked, "One last question, what exactly are you sealing?"

"Don’t ask. It’s something you shouldn’t know right now. Go," Su’e responded.

Su’e didn’t give Lin Yun a chance to speak further. With a wave of her hand, Lin Yun felt an irresistible force push him upward.

Soon enough, Lin Yun surfaced.

The moment he surfaced, Lin Yun didn’t care if he would arouse suspicion; he immediately used Fire Escape and appeared on the small pavilion in the center of Holy Spring Lake.

For the past two days, Hongling had been guarding this place.

When Lin Yun had disappeared, she hadn’t thought much of it, assuming he was still practicing.

It was only now when Lin Yun suddenly appeared that she didn’t know what he was up to. Weren’t they agreed that he would act as bait?

"Quickly, give me the Ascending Dragon Sword. There’s trouble," Lin Yun said.

"What happened?"

Hongling, seeing Lin Yun’s demeanor, didn’t believe he was joking around and hurriedly handed over the Ascending Dragon Sword.

But Lin Yun didn’t answer her, merely stating, "There’s no time to explain. Do you have a way to gather everyone else and organize an evacuation?"

Lin Yun could choose to run away by himself. He didn’t have much of a connection to the other people in Yellow Wind Valley, but ultimately, he was still human. With many of his kind in the valley, he couldn’t heartlessly neglect them.

It wasn’t that he felt the need to save everyone, but if possible, he’d try to save who he could.

After all, he was just passing the message.

Hongling: "..."

"Are you sure you’re not joking?"

Yellow Wind Valley had been established here for over a hundred years; it couldn’t just be abandoned so easily.

"Of course not," Lin Yun assured.

"Fine, then I believe you," Hongling said decisively.

She flew into the air and began shouting, "All residents of the valley, immediately assemble at the exit!"

Lin Yun: "..."

So basically, communication here relies on shouting, huh?
