The Immortal Emperor Returns Chapter 536

After Xie Qingyun left, Yue Fandie thought for a moment and looked at Chu Xun, saying, “Bro, we have to guard against this. The alien races and the Assembly of Immortals hate you to the guts. They wish you could just drop dead. Now, they offered to cooperate with you only because of the fragments of the Reality Painting you have. If you really open the ancient ruins, they would by no means sit back and watch you take away 40 percent of the treasures in it.”

Chu Xun nodded slightly.

“No one would work hard if there was nothing to be gained. Those bastards must be up to no good,” Yue Jingchou muttered.

“Second Uncle, they must have something up their sleeves. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the nerve to come here and seek help even though they know very well about your cultivation and disposition.” Yue Hongbo's view of the matter was rather thorough.

“Second Uncle, I don't think you should go. It's better to be safe than sorry. These bastards are rather wicked. They may have set up a trap for you,” Yue Changle said.

Chu Xun smiled and said, “No, I'll go. I must go. But Jingchou will go with me this time.”

“Me?” Yue Jingchou was taken aback for seconds before he rejoiced and said eagerly, “Great! I'd love to…”

The prospect of fighting side by side with Chu Xun made him very excited.

“Do you have a plan, bro?” Asked Yue Fandie.

Chu Xun nodded and said, “What you said is correct. The Assembly of Immortals and the alien races are not easy to deal with. We have to be on guard.”

Chu Xun knew very well that with his current cultivation, he was not strong enough to dominate the world and do whatever he wanted with no scruples. Since ancient times, many big shots had failed miserably when they were not on alert. Chu Xun was confident but not conceited.

“What is your plan, Second Uncle?” Asked Yue Jingchou.

Chu Xun looked at him and told him his plan.

His plan was to swap identities. Yue Jingchou pretended to be him while he disguised himself as Yue Jingchou.

This way, the alien races and the Assembly of Immortals would only focus on Yue Jingchou, the fake Chu Xun, and ignored the real one.

“Sure, I'll do it,” Yue Jingchou agreed without thinking.

“This plan is highly risky. Even though I'll be there to protect you, I can't guarantee that you won't be in danger. You should think it through,” Chu Xun advised. After all, no one knew what dirty tricks the alien races and the Assembly of Immortals had up their sleeves.

“I think it's doable,” Yue Fandie said, “this boy is also an Immortal-level expert now, but he lacks experience. It'll do him good if he can go on an adventure with you.”

“Brother, no one can predict what will happen on this trip. Are you really not worried at all about Jingchou going on the trip with me? Moreover, he'll become a thorn in the side of the alien races and the Assembly of Immortals.”

“As a man of our Yue Family, how can Jingchou be afraid of death?” Said Yue Fandie. He was not perturbed at all.

“I strongly doubt if I'm really your biological son,” muttered Yue Jingchou.

“I'll go on an adventure at the risk of my life. But my father does nothing to stop me. Instead, he completely supports me.”

“You insolent pup, I think you need a good beating again,” Yue Fandie scowled and then said, “if you're afraid of danger, just let your older brother do it.”

“I'm okay with that,” Yue Hongbo said eagerly.

“Never mind,” said Yue Jingchou hastily, putting on an air of righteousness, “how can I just sit idly by and watch my older brother risk his life? If I don't go to hell, who will? Let me take the risk.”

The matter was settled then.

Yue Jingchou had basically the same physique as Chu Xun. Both of them were quite slender. Thus, only a few minor alterations would suffice.

Chu Xun changed Yue Jingchou's appearance with a secret skill, while he altered his face to look exactly like Yue Jingchou.

“I'm Chu Xun the Devil now,” said Yue Jingchou enthusiastically. He paced back and forth. Then, looking at Chu Xun, he said, “Second Uncle, do I look like you?”

“You should call me Jingchou now,” Chu Xun reminded him.

Next, Chu Xun cautioned him about what he should pay attention to.

Yue Jingchou listened carefully and diligently studied Chu Xun's every move.

“I still think there's something missing, isn't there?” Yue Hongbo mused for a while. Then, his eyes sparkled with enlightenment as he said, “That's it. He lacks Second Uncle's domineering air, the kind derived from having no fear.”

Yue Jingchou was stunned for a moment. Then, thinking of Chu Xun's posture, he put one hand behind his back, squinted at others, and paced with his toes pointing outward as if he was the most powerful man in the world.

Yue Fandie gave him a kick, saying, “You should be domineering, not arrogant. You're now like a ruffian who needs a spanking.”

Chu Xun sniggered. He lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then he took out a Spirit Stone, closed his fingers as if they were a blade, and carved a small magic formation on the Spirit Stone before handing it to Yue Jingchou.

Yue Jingchou activated the Spirit Stones. Next, his aura changed into one that was terrifyingly powerful. The looming pressure he emitted was horror-inspiring.

Chu Xun did the same thing to another Spirit Stone and handed it to Yue Jingchou, saying, “This stone has a Defending Formation. Activate it as soon as you encounter any danger.”

Yue Jingchou nodded vigorously and stowed them away. These stones could be life-saving.

“There's still one thing Jingchou can't do,” said Yue Fandie.

“Brother, you mean flying?” Chu Xun chuckled and said, “Don't worry. I have it all planned out.”

Three days passed quickly.

On this day, Chu Xun and Yue Jingchou set off for Flower City to meet up with the Assembly of Immortals and the alien races.

In front of the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy, Chu Xun fetched out a flying Sacred Relic. A huge ship materialized and floated in the air. It was the one he had snatched from the Mustelid race.

He and Yue Jingchou got on the flying ship and flew toward Flower City.

According to the investigation of the disciples of the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy, the members of the Assembly of Immortals and the alien races already arrived at the Huatai Hotel in the downtown area yesterday.

They did not deliberately hide their identities because they wanted Chu Xun to know where they were.

When the flying ship entered the airspace above Flower City. it attracted many ordinary people's attention.

More than a dozen people came out of the Huatai Hotel, including Xie Qingyun.

One of them was an old man with yellow hair and a yellow beard. Looking at the spaceship in the sky with malicious eyes, he scolded angrily, “That jerk!”

“Brother Huang, what is that?” Asked a middle-aged man with a terrifying aura. He looked completely baffled.

“This flying treasure belongs to our Mustelid race. One day, it just disappeared. Turns out that it was snatched away by Chu Xun the Devil,” Huang Chi said furiously.

Everyone caught on.

“Brother Huang, please bear with it for the time being,” Xie Qingyun said consolingly.

“Don't worry. I know what's the right thing to do,” Huang Chi said with a long face.

The flying ship slowly landed. Chu Xun followed Yue Jingchou and disembarked.

“Brother Chu, welcome, welcome,” Xie Qingyun headed forward to greet them.

“This is the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy's domain. I should be the one welcoming you,” Yue Jingchou, who had disguised as Chu Xun, said with a smile.

Xie Qingyun was slightly taken aback. But shortly, he smiled and said, “Brother Chu, please forgive me. I shouldn't have stolen the host's thunder.”

“Chu Xun” shook his head to show that he didn't mind.

“Brother Chu, let me get this straight. From now on, we'll cooperate with good faith. For the sake of the gains, we should let bygones be bygones for the time being, right?” Xie Qingyun was very smart. He directly stated that there was enmity between them instead of trying to deny it.

“Chu Xun” nodded slightly in agreement.

“Brother Chu, this is Master Zu Si.” Xie Qingyun pointed at a lanky young man with ordinary looks.

Zu Si's skin was fair and clear, which made him look somewhat feminine. There was a faint smile on his face. He did not look too aloof or too cordial. He took two steps forward and said, “I've long heard of Brother Chu's great name. I'm Zu Si. Glad to meet you.”

The urge to kill raged inside Yue Jingchou. It was because of this man's scheme that Mu Ziran and the Zombie race nearly launched a bloodbath in the Sanctuary of Tetrarchy. However, he was Chu Xun now. He knew what his priority was. With a smile on his face, he remarked, “I've long heard of Master Zu as well. I heard that you are setting up a Transfer Formation. Has the construction been completed? Where is it built? I wonder if I have the honor of visiting it.”

Zu Si's face stiffened slightly. But he quickly put on his regular look and said, “Brother Chu, you're flattering us. It is only Mu Ziran's means to seek survival. Brother Chu, please don't take it seriously.”

“Chu Xun” nodded with a smile and said nothing.

Seeing this, Xie Qingyun quickly changed the subject. Pointing at Huang Chi, he said, “This is an expert from the Mustelid race. His name is Huang Chi.”

Huang Chi glanced at “Chu Xun” and snorted coldly. He did not step up to salute him.

“Chu Xun” narrowed his eyes slightly, and a formidable aura surged around him. “You seem to take issue with me, don't you?”

“Brother Chu, don't get this wrong. Brother Huang is a distant and unsociable person. He has always been like this. If Brother Huang has offended you, I apologize to you on behalf of him.” Xie Qingyun tried to smooth things over.

“Chu Xun” nodded and withdrew his aura. As a gesture of showing Xie Qingyun some respect, he let this slide.

“This is Hei Peng, our friend from the Draconian race.

“This is Kong Changcun, a friend from the Peacock race.

“This is Jing Shan, a friend from the Assembly of Immortals.

Xie Qingyun introduced all the people present one by one.

Except for Huang Chi, the others all seemed quite respectful.

“When are we leaving?” Asked “Chu Xun”.

Xie Qingyun replied, “Brother Chu, if there is nothing else, let's depart as soon as possible.”

“Chu Xun” nodded slightly and said, “Give me two hours.”

“Sure, Brother Chu,” Xie Qingyun said.

Yue Jingchou and Chu Xun turned around and left. Two hours later, they came back on time.

“We're all set. Brother Xie, let's set off,” called out Chu Xun after he and Yue Jingchou boarded the flying ship.

The corners of Xie Qingyun's mouth twitched. They originally hoped to ask Chu Xun to let them take his flying ship as well so that they could travel faster.

However, from the looks of it, Chu Xun didn't want them to get on the ship, so he did not have the face to make the request.

The group of people set off for the ancient ruins.

Xie Qingyun and the others were running strenuously on the ground, while Chu Xun and Yue Jingchou were basking in the sun on the flying ship, enjoying barbeque and good wine.

They left for two hours just to buy food for the barbecue.

“That jackass…” When Huang Chi saw this, he gnashed his teeth.

His curse was, of course, captured by Chu Xun's extremely acute ears. With a flick of his finger, the chicken bone in his hand accurately hit the back of Huang Chi's head.

Huang Chi felt a gust of cold wind was suddenly blowing at him from behind. He wanted to dodge, but he couldn't. Something hit the back of his head. Instantly, his brain vibrated. It was as if someone just struck him in the head with a rod. Everything in front of his eyes became dark, and he slumped onto the ground and rolled dozens of meters away.

Xie Qingyun and the others were all startled. In shock, they stared blankly at Huang Chi's furious expression. “What's going on?”

They were running as fast as lightning. With the wind whistling in their ears, they didn't hear or notice anything unusual.

Huang Chi looked at the flying ship in the air with a sullen face. In fact, he did not know what had hit him or who did it. Subconsciously, he thought it must be Chu Xun.

He looked around for the thing that hit him, but he couldn't find anything.

When Chu Xun threw out the chicken bone, he exerted the Concealed Force, which reduced the chicken bone to powder after it hit the target.

Yue Jingchou, who now had turned back to be himself, walked to the side of the ship. When he noticed Huang Chi's vicious gaze, he was involuntarily taken aback.

“Weasel, why are you looking at me like that?”

Huang Chi's expression grew increasingly sinister. “You know what you guys did.”

“I know what?” Yue Jingchou asked, his face written with confusion.

Just as Huang Chi was about to lash out, Zu Si called, “Brother Huang.”

Huang Chi then fought back his anger and shot a hard look at Yue Jingchou before he cocked his head to one side.

“Wow… There's a huge bump on your head…” Yelped Yue Jingchou.

It was not until then that the others saw that there was a fist-sized bump on the back of Huang Chi's head, and fresh blood was seeping out of it.

Huang Chi's just repressed temper flared again at Yue Jingchou's words.

“Little bastard, even if your father came, he wouldn't dare speak to me like this. You'd better behave, or you'll bring doom on yourself!” Huang Chi said gloomily.

“Jingchou, come back.”

Just as Yue Jingchou was about to snap back, he heard Chu Xun call him. He pointed a finger at Huang Chi and said, “Just you wait, weasel!”

With that, Yue Jingchou walked back.

Because the ship was too big, the people on the ground couldn't see what was happening on the ship at all.

Not long after Yue Jingchou went inside, Chu Xun leaped off the ship with a wild aura and swooped down on Huang Chi.
