Hidden moth

Chapter 289: The Silent Fragrance

What did He Kao realize? What happened today proved that Mei Guyu had not lost her magical powers at all. When she came to Qiyuan after her retreat, she had not taken the step of seeking to verify her seventh-level cultivation.

She simply stopped using her magical powers. She did not do this to deceive anyone, but to try to find an opportunity to take that step in this way.

But she had never succeeded until this moment when she came to her senses... When she handed the Falling Rain Sword to He Kao, it showed that she had finally taken that step.

She also hinted to He Kao why she had taken that step and how she had taken it. He Kao still couldn't fully understand the mystery of the realm of cultivation, but he knew that Mei Guyu had truly lost her magical powers at this moment.

Thinking back to what Jiang Daozhen had said, He Kao suddenly felt that the old man seemed to be right!

He Kao realized it but couldn't say it out loud. Mei Guyu showed her great power tonight, and no one would dare to attack her again. This was the best protection for her.

This does not require any gag order from the clan hall, as long as the insider is absolutely reliable.

He Kao took the ruler, his hands shaking slightly, but he tried to smile as he said, "Since this is a favor between friends, there's nothing much to say. I'll keep it safe for you for the time being."

Mei Guyu smiled again: "You also carried a steel ruler some time ago. It looks similar to this one, but it should be specially made. The material is very special and the ruler is thicker. How about lending it to me?"

She actually wanted to exchange a steel ruler with He Kao. Given her current condition, she couldn't use her magical powers, so the steel ruler specially made by He Kao was indeed a more suitable weapon for her.

He Kao nodded and said, "Okay!"

Hearing his answer, Mei Guyu simply extended his hand.

He Kao was slightly startled: "You want it now? I don't have it with me, I left it at home."

Today he plays the role of Li Xiuyuan. When he goes out for a "walk", of course he does not carry the backpack commonly used by programmers, nor does he bring the steel ruler specially made by Jiuliang Manufacturing.

Mei Gu asked, "With your level of cultivation, can't you recruit him?"

He Kao replied somewhat awkwardly: "Almost."

Although the Happy Valley Amusement Park was not far from Pugang Town, the place where the two were standing was still about five kilometers away from He Kao's yard. Even if He Kao had the ability to control objects with his spiritual sense, he could not reach the steel ruler.

Mei Guyu: "Then let's go back first. I have to take a car to get back to the apartment now."

He Kao: "I'll drive you."

The two of them walked back. When they were almost halfway there, He Kao finally waved his hand. A steel ruler flew out from mid-air, landed steadily in his palm, and then was handed to Mei Guyu.

This scene is really cool and really embarrassing.

Although this steel ruler was made of a unique material and had been refined by divine consciousness and magical power, it was only tougher and not even a magical weapon. But since Mei Guyu was carrying it with him, who could say it wasn't the Falling Rain Divine Sword?

From finding Jingyan just now to summoning the steel ruler now, although He Kao did not reveal the foundation of the hidden moth technique, the details of his cultivation have been almost fully demonstrated.

Since the Falling Rain Sword was given to him, Mei Guyu should have an idea of how powerful the sword would be in his hands.

Mei Guyu inserted the steel ruler back into the side of the bag. It looked no different than before, and frowned slightly as he said, "Fifth level cultivation, you can break it at any time."

She saw that He Kao's cultivation had reached perfection at the fourth level, and he was only one step away from breaking through to the fifth level. As she spoke, she sent another divine thought, introducing the various details and precautions for breaking through to the fifth level, as well as her own personal experience.

The secret of breaking through the fifth level is introduced in the inheritance of the high-level hidden moth technique obtained by He Kao, and the immortal Tan in the painting also gives some suggestions.

But that was an ancient method from thousands of years ago. Mei Guyu's divine consciousness contained the latest summary of the ancestors over the past thousand years, which was also very helpful to He Kao.

He Kao actually forgot to express his gratitude, but Mei Guyu didn't mind.

When the two returned home, they went inside first. When they came out, He Kao had returned to his original appearance, carrying his backpack with a steel ruler stuck on the side of the bag.

Gu Chun once gave He Kao an idea, asking him to pretend to be Li Xiuyuan to intimidate the villains, because almost all the people sent to Qiyuan by the Zongfa Hall some time ago had been withdrawn, even Elder Li had quietly left, leaving only Mei Wenhua.

Of course, it was impossible to hide this kind of thing from Mei Guyu, but she didn't say anything.

It was not until he heard the sound of the divine sword and the phoenix that He Kao realized that he was not trying to intimidate the villains by pretending to be Elder Li, but was actually trying to seduce them!

Because the other party's plan was obviously to eliminate Elder Li and Elder Mei together.

The elderly people should be insiders. They know that Mei Guyu does not need He Kao's protection, but it is He Kao who needs Mei Guyu's protection.

At least that was the case before Mei Guyu handed the Falling Rain Sword to He Kao.

He Kao drove Mei Guyu back to Sesame Apartment. They seemed to have forgotten another thing, that is, the battlefield in Happy Valley had not been cleaned up yet. I don’t know if it was intentional.

When passing near the Qiyuan University campus, a wisp of black smoke flew out of the car window. Upon closer inspection, it was an eye mask made of green gauze, which was Yin'e Sha.

The Yin'esha floated over the treetops, flew over the wall, and circled several buildings. When it fell, it was caught by a slender hand.

Lan Jiuwan had just received a notice from her "Master Brother" to retrieve the Yin'e Veil at a designated location. Unexpectedly, the Veil floated directly from the sky right before her. After scanning the area with her spiritual sense and seeing no one was around, she donned the Veil and instantly transformed into Luo Mingzhi, the university counselor.

Lan Jiuwan pretended to be Luo Mingzhi, and she looked much more like him than He Kao did when he played Elder Li. He must have become very familiar with Luo Mingzhi during this period of time. He imitated her posture and expression perfectly, and even her vitality was very similar.

The breath of vitality is difficult to imitate, which is also one of the magical uses of Yin'e Sha.

She was wearing Luo Mingzhi's clothes at the moment, walked through the corner of the campus, and walked into an apartment building...

In the expert apartment provided by Qiyuan University for visiting scholars, Jiaobide did not go out for dinner nor order takeout. Starting from dinner, he was holding his mobile phone and a glass of wine, waiting for news.

During his time in the United States, he developed a bad habit of drinking without even having a meal.

At least some peanuts, fennel beans, or something? Even those Mexicans next door to the United States know to rub some lemon salt on the palm of their hand when making tequila, and then lick it after taking a sip.

He was not an alcoholic, nor was he drunk at the moment. He was just used to using this method to stabilize his emotions and relieve tension and anxiety.

He is the chief contact person for all underground members of the Xiao Alliance in the East Country. He is responsible for collecting, organizing and analyzing intelligence from all aspects, developing organizational members and planning related actions.

As for important action decisions, it was not his turn to make the decision because Fabre was above him.

Jiao Bi De knew about tonight's operation, and the Xiaomeng leaders would capture Li Xiuyuan and Mei Guyu in Qiyuan.

He had heard that Fengwei Township was planning a major operation, but he had no idea what it was. If it succeeded, Xiaomeng would achieve an "unprecedented victory."

He has no right to interfere in the affairs of Fengwei Township, but the action on Qiyuan's side should start at dinner time tonight, and it is unknown when there will be results.

At this moment, he suddenly received a message, which, according to the codeword, should have been sent by Fabre. Fabre said nothing else, simply instructing him to immediately remain silent and dormant, and to block all contact information of the members of the organization under his jurisdiction.

Jiao Bi De was a little surprised and puzzled. Did this mean that the operation was successful or failed?

He had drawn up several contingency plans for tonight's operation, and it was unknown how many of them were ultimately adopted by the higher-ups. His suggestion was that if tonight's operation was successful, many people would temporarily enter a state of silence to prevent the enraged Shumen from pursuing them.

But Fabre's order at this moment was for him alone, asking him to immediately go silent and dormant. The so-called one-way blocking meant that all his offline members could not find him, and any related accounts would be cancelled if necessary, and some groups would be disbanded if necessary.

Those contact information that cannot be deleted must be abandoned and cannot be used from this moment on.

His subordinates cannot contact him and do not know his identity, but based on the information he has, he can recontact those people when necessary in the future.

But on the other hand, this also means that his connection with his "superior" has been cut off. For example, he can't contact Fabre and other Xiaomeng executives for the time being, and can only wait for the other party to contact him in the future.

Jiao Bi De thought he had become a core member of the Xiao Alliance, but Fabre didn't seem to agree. Fabre didn't tell him what had happened, perhaps because he was too short on time or because he didn't think it was necessary.

But Jobid's role was indeed very important. If he fell into the hands of the Patriarchal Hall, the consequences would be quite serious, so Fabre gave him this order in time after he escaped.

In fact, a safer and more reliable approach is to let Jiao Bide run away quickly, leave the country immediately and return to North America, or hide in a place where the clan hall cannot find him.

But Fabre did not do so, perhaps for many reasons.

First of all, he was still a little unwilling to give up. Although the operation failed, he still couldn't give up the nails that had been buried, otherwise it would be a pity; secondly and more importantly, he didn't think Jiao Bi De would be exposed.

Jiao Bi De's identity is special. He has been lurking in Qiyuan University for a long time and has never aroused anyone's suspicion or attention.

It is not easy for Xiaomeng to train and place such a person, and he must continue to play a role. If he is notified to evacuate suddenly at this time, it may attract the attention of the Shumen.

Then let him continue to stay in Qiyuan. There is an old saying in Dongguo that the darkest place is under the lamp, which means that the most dangerous place is often the safest.

After receiving the notification, Jiao Bi De drank the wine in his glass, took out his computer and several mobile phones, and was about to act according to the plan. After thinking about it, he stopped what he was doing and planned to disguise himself and go out.

Some things need to be processed online, and he doesn't want to use the network here.

Just then the doorbell rang. He was startled and immediately breathed a sigh of relief after scanning with his spiritual sense, but then he frowned again, revealing an extremely impatient expression.

But when he opened the door, he regained his graceful demeanor and asked with a smile, "Mingzhi, why are you here?"

Luo Mingzhi walked in with a concerned look on her face and said, "It happened! I sent you several messages but you didn't reply. I don't know what happened, so I came to check on you."

As he spoke, he closed the door with his heel and opened his arms to hug Jiaobid.

Jiao Bi De obviously didn't want to be disturbed at this time. He just wanted to send her away quickly. He said, "Didn't I tell you..."

He was suddenly interrupted when he said this. His body slid down softly and knelt in front of Luo Mingzhi, and was then lifted up by Luo Mingzhi by his hair.

This Luo Mingzhi was of course played by Lan Jiuwan. As a fifth-level mind-measuring person who had practiced the art of subtlety, Jiao Bi De's cultivation level was much higher than Lan Jiuwan's, but he was not on guard at all.

There were several battles today, big and small. Some were grand and full of twists and turns, while others were exciting and unexpected, but Lan Jiuwan's was the most relaxed, with almost no movement.
