Super Invincible Immortal Doctor-Chapter 387 Difficult to distinguish between True and False_1

Chapter 387: Chapter 387 Difficult to distinguish between True and False_1

Suddenly, an unexpected warning echoed in Su Chengyu’s mind; his body jolted as he furrowed his brow. As a cultivator, he knew that someone was communicating with him through the Sound Transmission Spell.

"The person you are facing is wicked, don’t trust his words."

Confusion instantaneously filled Su Chengyu’s heart. He keenly observed the old Taoist in front of him; though he didn’t carry the aura of a divine immortal, he seemed kindly and benevolent and didn’t look like the wicked sort.

However, with his past experiences, Su Chengyu knew better than to judge a book by its cover. Recalling the whole matter, everything seemed too much of a coincidence, too smooth, too convenient.

However, the old Taoist appeared deep and impenetrable. If he could identify Xu Nanzhi’s health issues and discover the two God Beasts they had at home, his abilities were surpassing Su Chengyu by a lot.

So, Su Chengyu hadn’t doubted the old Taoist. After all, if the man had evil intentions, he wouldn’t bother with such an elaborate plan; he could have simply acted, and Su Chengyu wouldn’t be able to resist.

Moreover, Su Chengyu’s heart was attached to Xu Nanzhi. As soon as the old Taoist said that he could save Xu Nanzhi, Su Chengyu was so overjoyed he hadn’t thought through much.

"Young friend, hold on a moment. I will be there immediately," the voice sounded once more.

"Senior, you mentioned that the Rainbow Heart Lotus is your treasure. Could you please show me the other fragments to broaden my view?" Su Chengyu said.

The old Taoist replied, "The Rainbow Heart Lotus is a supreme treasure. Too many covet it, and I have hidden the fragments. I don’t carry them with me."

"I have two more requests," Su Chengyu nonchalantly stated.

Upon hearing his words, the old Taoist seemed to be getting a little impatient. He replied, "State all your conditions together, and I can agree to them. First, unbind the Green Lotus Fragments from yourself and return them to me."

"You seem to be in a hurry?" Su Chengyu said.

"I have been seeking it for nearly a thousand years, how can I not be eager? This matter is of great importance, it involves the greatest secret of the entire world and universe," the old Taoist sighed.

"Oh? Could you share this secret with me?" Su Chengyu, in an attempt to stall time, was curious about who was the real villain, the old Taoist in front of him, or the person who’d messaged him.

At this moment, Su Chengyu didn’t trust anyone.

"This secret is too important. Knowing too much will not do you any good, and it’s not something you should know. Hurry and state your conditions instead," the old Taoist waved him off.

"I have a cherished person who, unfortunately, has died. I have sealed her soul and body, hoping to resurrect her, but I don’t have the means to do so. Senior’s profound cultivation and heavenly mana, can you help me resurrect her?" Su Chengyu said.

"No problem!" Without a second thought, the old Taoist accepted his request.

"Oh? Resurrecting the dead goes against nature’s principles. Senior, aren’t you afraid of bearing karma?" Su Chengyu asked.

"Young friend, if you return the Green Lotus Fragments, it’s a huge favor to me. Resurrecting one person for you is not difficult at all," the old Taoist said.

"And, my Spirit Beast’s primordial spirit is about to dissipate, could you assist me?"

"No problem," the old Taoist agreed without hesitation.

"Then please, senior, fulfill these two tasks for me first, and I will immediately return the Green Lotus Fragments," Su Chengyu said.

The old Taoist’s expression turned gloomy instantly and he spoke with annoyance, "Since I’ve promised, I won’t break my word! Moreover, what you’re asking is no simple matter! I need to reconstruct the Rainbow Heart Lotus and borrow the power of the spiritual artifact to accomplish it. Quickly hand over the fragments to me."

"No way! If you go back on your word, I will have no way of dealing with you."

Su Chengyu rapidly withdrew his hand, retracting the Green Lotus Fragments back into his body.

Xu Nanzhi felt that Su Chengyu’s sudden change in attitude was too abrupt. A moment ago, he was reverential and grateful to the old Taoist, and now he was using the Green Lotus Fragments to threaten him.

This wasn’t Su Chengyu’s character.

The old Taoist became furious. Just then, a figure emerged out of thin air in the study, startling Xu Nanzhi who was next to them.

The newcomer was clad in the same outfit as the original old Taoist, and even the facial features were identical. The only difference was this individual exuded a more Immortal-like demeanor.

"You monster, disguising yourself again as me to fraudulently acquire the Bao Lian Fragments," said this later arrived old Taoist calmly.

The original old Taoist stood up, a light flashed around him, and his appearance altered instantly, revealing a pair of horns on his head, comparable to bovine ones, a green face with fierce teeth, and a fearful appearance. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Xu Nanzhi jumped in surprise. Su Chengyu quickly pulled her into his embrace. The horned monster spit a ball of light at the old Taoist as he tried to escape.

"Where do you think you’re going!"

With a wave of his hand, the old Taoist dispersed the ball of light. With his next move, a gesture in space, he caught the horned monster who had just disappeared into thin air.

The horned monster was roaring angrily when the old Taoist waved his horsetail whisk. A rune flew out, restraining the beast. The horned monster screamed as the rune began to consume it, reducing it to ashes within moments.

"My actions have disturbed you, young friend. I deeply apologize," the old Taoist bowed to Su Chengyu.

"What just happened? Did you know that the previous old Taoist was an imposter?" Xu Nanzhi asked.

Su Chengyu shook his head and said, "I didn’t! He was the one who alerted me through telepathic transmission, warning me not to trust that monster."

After the recent experience, Su Chengyu was no longer ready to easily trust the old Taoist in front of him. He held the Dragon Slayer Sword, on guard.

Without minding him, the old Taoist sat down, pouring himself a cup of hot tea.

"Young friend, you don’t need to be so tense, I’m not a bad person," the old Taoist said.

"How can you prove it? How can I know you’re not with that previous monster, playing a game of thief catching thief, to gain my trust?" Su Chengyu asked coldly.

"You are indeed smart. But if that monster and I were in league, wouldn’t you have been deceived when I didn’t warn you earlier? Why would I make any unnecessary moves?" The old Taoist chuckled, stroking his beard.

Su Chengyu slightly eased his guard, although he didn’t entirely trust this old Taoist yet.

"Are you also here for the Green Lotus Fragments?" Su Chengyu asked.

The old Taoist nodded slightly, "Indeed, I, Qingxu Zi, am here for the Green Lotus Fragments."

"Then what’s with the monster earlier?" Su Chengyu inquired.

"Naturally, it’s a monster that coveted the Green Lotus Fragments and had the audacious plan to snatch them. Fortunately, I got here in time, or it would have succeeded. These Green Lotus Fragments are useless to you; return them to me. I am willing to exchange a top-grade spiritual artifact or something of equivalent value with you."

Qingxu Zi took a sip of tea. Su Chengyu lightly squinted his eyes, pondering whether this man before him was trustworthy.

"I don’t need the artifact. Accomplish three tasks for me, and I will give the Green Lotus Fragments to you," Su Chengyu used the same conditions as before.

Even if this Qingxu Zi turned out to be an impostor, as long as he could settle these three chores, why not give him the Green Lotus Fragments?
