Wanbao Lady

Chapter 316: Impostor

After everyone congratulated and left, Huang Mobai stayed on his own accord.

Not to mention Yudut Mountain, even if it is from other sects, it is no small matter if someone pretends to be one of their own.

If you do something against the law outside, wouldn't you ruin your own reputation?

As an eyewitness, he will certainly be questioned by the Empress afterwards.

Therefore, it is better to stay here on your own initiative.

Sure enough, after all the guests left, the empress came over with Xia Li, the person involved.

"Master Huang, I was unable to speak because of the many guests in front of me. Now that it is quiet, I hope you can explain this matter in detail."

"That's exactly what Huang meant." Huang Mobai's eyes seemed to be reminiscing as he spoke, and then he told the story.

In order to take advantage of the excuse of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new to make themselves known to the Empress, the various forces that came today had already discussed it privately and decided to come to pay their respects on the third day after the New Year.

As for why it wasn't the first day after the New Year...

That's because each state has an extremely vast territory, and the major forces are located in different prefectures. The time required to travel to Yudu Mountain from different prefectures is also different.

For example, Bantong Mountain, where Huang Mobai is located, is located in Dingfang Prefecture.

Compared with Guangning Prefecture where Yudu Mountain is located, one is in the northwest of Qingzhou and the other is in the southeast of Qingzhou.

Even if they were cultivators, it would take them two days to reach Yudu Mountain.

If you don't leave early, you will miss the time.

Therefore, he actually set out early in the morning the day before yesterday, which was the first day after the New Year.

Just when I went out, I happened to glance towards Niniu Village at the foot of Bantong Mountain and found a familiar figure talking to a village woman.

If it’s not Xia Li from Yudu Mountain, then who is he?

Why is Miss Kexia here? What are they talking about?

As he was really confused, Huang Mobai stopped moving forward and flew down to say hello.

But I didn't expect that before I landed, the person below stopped talking vigilantly.

When he landed and walked over to say hello, the other party seemed not to know him. He left in a hurry without saying a word and disappeared.

Didn't give him any chance to stay.

Although I felt that this matter was suspicious, I was in a hurry and couldn't stay too long.

Besides, the destination of this trip is Yudu Mountain. Wouldn’t we just ask the Empress and find out when the time comes?

Therefore, he did not stay any longer and finally arrived at Yudu Mountain early in the morning of the third day.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the secret realm, I saw Xia Li!

Could it be that the other party was also like him, rushing back from Niniu Village?

But he never saw the other person again along the way. This didn't make sense no matter how he thought about it!

Not to mention that Xia Li, who was in Yudu Mountain, personally denied the matter.

After listening to Huang Mobai's narration, everyone present immediately realized: This is a fake!

Bayan's eyes lit up immediately, and he shook his bird feathers excitedly, "Real or fake Xia Li? Interesting, really very interesting!"

Qin Lingshan was filled with righteous indignation and said, "Who is so bold! How dare you pretend to be someone from Yudu Mountain!"

Huang Mobai seemed to be thinking, "But why would the other party pretend to be Miss Xia?"

"Since the cultivators' conference, probably 80% or not 100% of the cultivators who went there have recognized Xia Li and know that she is the envoy of the Foreign Affairs Department of Yudu Mountain. If that thief pretends to be Xia Li and does something...hiss~"

Sun Yue couldn't help but frown.

Thinking deeply, since the cultivator conference, Yudu Mountain has stood out like a dark horse, so much so that many low-level cultivators know the name of Yudu Mountain.

If that thief pretends to be Xia Li, the envoy of the Foreign Affairs Department of Yudut Mountain known to most cultivators, and uses the influence of Yudut Mountain to do something bad secretly, he will definitely be bringing discredit to his own family!

And why the other party appeared in Dingfang Mansion... is also worth pondering.

First of all, there is the journey. Even if it is for a great cultivator like Huang Mobai who is at the Heavenly Human Stage, it would still take two days to get there at the fastest or slowest pace. This shows how far the two places are apart.

Moreover, everyone knows that unless the people of Yudu Mountain have important matters to attend to, they usually don't go around recruiting disciples, training, snatching treasures, etc. They all practice quietly at home. It's not an exaggeration to say that they are half a secluded mountain gate.

Therefore, at such a long distance, as long as the thief does not make too much noise, he will generally not be discovered by me.

Who would have known that on the first day after the New Year, Huang Mobai did not stay at his home in Bantong Mountain, but insisted on going down the mountain to Yudu Mountain to pay congratulations, and he left home at dawn.

It just so happened that because of the incident with Taoist Yueban, the other party was still somewhat familiar with Xia Li.

Isn't this just a coincidence, we just bumped into each other!

If Huang Mobai hadn't come to inform us, who knows how long the thief would have continued to pretend to be someone else.

"Oh, so that's how it is!" someone slapped his thigh.

Everyone spoke one after another. After thinking through the situation, Chongfan immediately said: Check! Check carefully!

This kind of counterfeiting will never be tolerated!

As for the candidates to investigate...

"Your Majesty, please let me go! That damn thief dared to impersonate me, I must find that guy out with my own hands!" Xia Li said gritting his teeth.

Chongfan nodded.

"My lady, I'm going too!"

"I also!"

"How dare this man pretend to be someone from Yudu Mountain? He is so bold! Let me go too! Pull him out and find out who is really playing tricks!"

"We can't let that person ruin the reputation of our sect! Just let me go!"

Looking at the crowd filled with righteous indignation, each of them raised their arms high, as if they all wanted to go.

Chongfan thought about it for a while and selected two more candidates.

One of them is Meng Chuan.

This man was once a member of the Demon Suppression Division. After coming to Yudu Mountain, he was originally in charge of the Inspection Division.

It just so happened that the preliminary personnel screening work was done too well, so that after everyone came to Yudut Mountain, they were in harmony and more like family than family, leaving no room for Meng Chuan to perform.

As a result, he has been practicing hard, and now he is also a member of the celestial stage of Yudut Mountain.

Now is a good time to assign him a task so that he can relax.

The second is Ba Yan.

Not to mention how strong its original bird will is, even its clone technique has been cultivated to the level of thousands of bodies, and it is also very good at hiding. In this way, it dares to claim to be second, and no one dares to claim to be first!

With Meng Chuan's analysis and command, Bayan's exploration and reconnaissance, and Xia Li's true self to expose the opponent, it's just right.

As for having more manpower... that's unnecessary in order to avoid alerting the enemy.

What's more, with the link of Tianluo, they can keep in touch in time no matter what happens.

With Chongfan's order, Huang Mobai added the two-person-one-bird team to his return trip.

So much so that along the way, the monks from the Five Luck Pavilion would secretly look at the three of them from time to time.

Compared to Xia Li and Ba Yan, who had already appeared at the cultivator conference, the unfamiliar Meng Chuan attracted more attention from the people in the Five Transport Pavilion.
