<strong>Chapter 362: To Boost Morale, One Words Is Enough!</strong>


    “Wang Po also said he’ll help me carry some cloth the next time we go to town, to make new clothes. I was thinking of asking him to carry double, to make dad a pair.”


    Bu Liuhen was happy, “Good, as long as you’re happy, all is well. This is a great ce, free from the cumbersome matters of the world.”


    Bu Liuhen had a reverent gaze stirring Bu Shenlian’s curiosity, “Dad, what is it?”


    “Sire Faceless needs me.”


    “He bestowed great kindness upon us and we can’t tarry. Go quickly, dad.”


    “Lead me to your room first.”


    Bu Liuhen sat cross-legged in her room, “Sire Faceless, I obey your call.”


    His awareness shifted and was now in the hall. Chen Ming stood on his seat of honor as Bu Liuhen bowed, “Sire Faceless.”


    Chen Mingughed, “You are my de, but even a de needs to be sheathed sometimes. But the time hase for you to act.”


    Bu Liuhen stood, “I’ve long been ready! Pleasemand me, sire Faceless!”


    “On Martial King Star, there is a 333 zhang cliff in a deste mountain range. Go inside the cave within and you will find a rock at the end with my mark on it. A bow lies below it. Bring it to me. ”


    “Understood!”


    “Oh, right. Don’t try to draw it or you’ll offend it and die.”


    Bu Liuhen’s thought, That’s a Martyr weapon!


    “I will carry it with care.”


    “You must know where the Vile Dragon Star River’s Devil Gate is located, right?”


    “It is found in the Vile Dragon Star River. Heavenly Court and Jade Lake could never control it and for this reason, their conflicts aren’t too severe. Subordinate already knows Devil Gate’s location. It is a soul well from which souls are collected. They are open only seven days each hundred years. Those days are also when the shes between the great powers will reach a peak.”


    “Take your men and wipe out all Jade Lake garrisoned troops and sentries in the area!”


    In Bu Liuhen’s mind, Sire Faceless wants to act, he wants to join the scramble for the Devil Gate. The shock was great but far lesser than the joy. The ways towards strength in the Gxy weren’t just through cultivation. It could only get you as far as Celestial Immortal if you cultivated your entire life. The other way was through struggles!


    But why fight?


    Following those powers into battle one would earn achievements and gain their rewards. The chance of rising higher came through these gifts!


    For Bu Liuhen to reach the Gold Immortal realm, his choicended him under sire Faceless’mand in the struggle against Heavenly Court and Jade Lake.


    Bu Liuhen said, “Will we pass off as Heavenly Court’s men?”


    His thinking was simple. Faceless were very few and even rarely showed themselves. He would be the one to do the fighting. But did he had what it takes to fight Heavenly Court and Jade Lake head-on?


    That’s suicide!


    The best way was to dupe Jade Lake believe Heavenly Court was making a move, inciting the two into open conflict. When the two were at each other’s throat, that was the best time to strike.


    Chen Mingughed, Ah, still naive. “If you assume Heavenly Court’s identity it will do the opposite, exposing us. There are ten more years until the Devil Gate opens. Heavenly Court won’t act. Attacking so soon will draw unwanted attention and do more harm than good; if we fight openly that is. This is why we will carry out assassinations.”


    “Heavenly Court and Jade Lake are in the dark about our existence. When Jade Lake’s garrison is dead, the Heavenly Court’s men will be left unharmed. In those two’s eyes, only the other side would be capable of such a thing. Without even the need to reveal ourselves to be from Heavenly Court, Jade Lake would still believe it was done by them.”


    Bu Liuhen bowed in understanding, “Sire Faceless’ n is wless. The two will fight while we will reap the benefits.”


    Chen Mingughed hard, “No. It’s not that simple. Another Faceless will stick his foot in.”


    Heavenly Court and Jade Lake didn’t scare him in the least, but another Faceless was a whole other matter. Faceless was infamous in the Gxy for being excessively cruel.


    Bu Liuhen said, “What do we do? Please guide me, sire Faceless.”


    “A de is not enough and this matter requires the intervention of another. Once Heavenly Court and Jade Lake are in open conflict, the defense in Jade Lake’s River Office would loosen. When Jade Lake will make arge-scale march to Vile Dragon Star River, you will take your men to the River Office’s prison and deliver the bow to a one-legged old man. Tell him the deal isplete and also remind him of my price. With Eight Dragon-ascending Steps, it should be easy for you to leave.”


    Bu Liuhen understood, Sire Faceless has gained another de and asks me to rescue him.


    He bowed, “Rest easy, sire Faceless. Subordinate will bring it to fruition!”


    Chen Ming nodded and Bu Liuhen woke up with a gesture.


    He turned to Bu Shenlian, “Father will go now. In ten years, the Three-headed Dragon Constetion will be wrecked with unrest. You must look after yourself and not let anyone know who you are.”


    “Dad, don’t worry. I can handle myself. With such a mysterious Faceless, dad’s future will look brighter and brighter.”


    Seven dayster.


    Near Devil Gate’s location, Jade Lake’s garrison.


    Bu Liuhen watched the sentry post from afar when a Celestial Immortal asked, “Sir, are we going to strike Jade Lake’s territory? Even the manyrge powers in the Vile Dragon Star River don’t dare to move on them!”


    Another said, “If Jade Lake finds out, there won’t be even bones left to show we existed. How can we face off against Jade Lake?”


    Bu Liuhen smiled. He knew that one word was enough to fill these Celestial Immortals with the courage to join in this undertaking. “From now on, we are no longer strangers. Call me... de!”


    The ten Celestial Immortals shivered. One even got cold feet and fell, his mouth stammering, “B-de... Did that mysterious figure descended once again?”


    That meant the rightful ruler of the Three-headed Dragon Constetion was back. He would sweep the constetion like a ck cloud, wrapping and reigned it in.


    Faceless stopped at nothing when doing things, they were beyond logic. They gained their rule through bloodshed, fear, and shady deals.


    They were called devil merchants, soul dealers.


    The paralyzed Celestial Immortal crawled his way up and bowed, “Please show us the way, sir de. We shall never disgrace our tasks!”


    The others were in high spirits, killing intent leaking from each one. They had the backing of that enigmatic persona. There was nothing to fear now. Kill!


    “Please show us the way, sir de. We shall never disgrace our tasks!”
