Chapter 94: Creepy

Chapter 94 – Creepy
“When the Alliance releases the mission, you should already know that we will conduct an examination, and only those who pass the examination will actually be able to take this mission.”

Inside the Zhao Family’s residence in Immortal Cloud City, the Zhao Family’s butler looked at the dozen or so Dan Masters underneath him with a smile on his face and said.

“Let’s start the assessment, if we can’t take this task in the end, we can also go back earlier.” An old Dan Master whispered, and the others responded.

Most of the dan masters who took this task did so because it was simple, the reward was rich enough, and it wasn’t troublesome. In terms of mentality, it was naturally a quick fix.

“Everyone, please come over here.”

The Zhao Family’s butler didn’t dare to neglect these dan masters and invited all of them to a courtyard. There were already a dozen or so dan furnaces neatly placed here, and medicinal herbs and such were also readily available.

“The test is very simple, it’s also to refine the Face Nourishing Dan, and in the end, whoever has the best quality and medicinal effect of the Face Nourishing Dan, this task will go to them.” The butler said in a deep voice.

None of the dan masters present had any objections, refining a furnace of face nourishing pills wasn’t troublesome, and with everything here, it would be even simpler.

Chen Fei was in the crowd, found a position, raised the fire and set up the furnace, then checked the herbs next to him, didn’t find any problems, and threw all of them into the furnace with a brain.

The refining techniques of the Dan masters present were also quite casual, although not as rough as Chen Fei, but not far behind.

However, in a few moments, the courtyard was filled with the aroma of medicine, and in less than a quarter of an hour, Chen Fei slapped open the lid of the furnace and took out the Face Nourishing Dan. The servants of the Zhao family hurriedly came forward and carefully took the pills away, sending them to another courtyard.

One by one, the pills refined by the dan masters came out one after another, and were all sent to another place.

Everyone waited patiently for the results, but in a few moments, the butler appeared in the courtyard.

“Tough luck everyone, this task was finally taken by this Dan Master Chen.”

The Zhao family butler revealed a hint of apology to the other Dan masters and clapped his hands as the Zhao family slaves gave each Dan master a gift box. The items within the gift boxes weren’t considered expensive, but the faces of some of the Dan Masters looked a lot better.

A few moments later, Chen Fei followed the butler to another courtyard, where the sound of warbling came from within.

“Sister Master, you haven’t been here for a while. If it wasn’t for the Face Nourishing Pill today, would you still not come to me?” Zhao Peixiu said with some unhappiness.

“I came because I wanted you, what does it have to do with the Face Nourishing Dan. If you want to say that, then I’ll leave.”

“Well well well, as if I said wrong, you can not go, I still have a lot to say to you.”

Zhao Peixiu hurriedly retained, and just as he was about to continue talking, he saw the butler walk in with a stranger.

“Miss, Dan Master Chen is here.” The butler went forward and fawned.

“Then let’s start, I want the elixir to be eaten right when it comes out of the oven, I heard that it has the best effect.” Zhao Peixiu glanced at Chen Fei and urged the butler at the side.

Chen Fei glanced at Zhao Peixiu and the two of them, dignified and beautiful, even if they were sitting, they could tell that both of them were of the extremely good kind.

Just glancing at them, Chen Fei lowered his head and stopped looking. Only Chen Fei’s nose unconsciously sniffed, and an extremely faint smell of injury medicine drifted into the middle of his nostrils.

After becoming a Dan Master, Chen Fei had become much more sensitive to all kinds of flavors, belonging to an occupational characteristic. The flavor that he smelled at the moment was an extremely high grade trauma medicine.

Chen Fei didn’t think too much about it, someone who was injured used trauma medicine, and it had nothing to do with him.

“This is that fifty year old herb? It is rather rare.”

“Yeah, I also got it by chance. My father also wanted to use it to refine other pills, and it was only after I begged for a long time that he agreed to let me use it to refine the Face Nourishing Pill.” Zhao Peixiu said proudly.

“I took advantage of you instead.”

“What is there to be polite about between sister and me, as long as you come to me often, I’m extremely happy.” Zhao Peixiu smiled and said.

Chen Fei listened to the conversation between the two daughters and closed his eyes. Only after the herbs were all brought before him did Chen Fei open his eyes and began to refine this furnace of Face Nourishing Pill.

Zhao Peixiu watched curiously as Chen Fei refined the pills, but immediately turned her head away in boredom, this refining of pills was completely different from what she had imagined, boring as hell.

Chen Fei looked at the furnace, feeling the changes in the medicinal properties of the herbs inside the furnace, adjusting them from time to time.

Compared to an ordinary Face Nourishing Pill, the changes in the medicinal properties of the fifty year old herbs were really a lot more drastic, and if one was not careful, one could really fail to refine it.

Fortunately, Chen Fei was too familiar with the Face Nourishing Pill, and even though the changes in the medicinal properties were drastic, they were still under Chen Fei’s control.

The fragrance of the medicine began to permeate the courtyard, and after spending two quarters of an hour, as Chen Fei slapped off the lid of the furnace, this furnace of expensive Face Restoring Pill was formally refined.

“Done? Senior sister, come over and take a look together.”

Zhao Peixiu saw Chen Fei take out the elixir and couldn’t wait to drag someone over to Chen Fei.

Between the originally medicinal fragrance, two wisps of the woman’s ethereal body fragrance suddenly intruded. Chen Fei subconsciously inhaled a bit, his eyebrows fluctuated slightly, why did it feel a bit familiar?

“Miss, the elixir has just come out of the furnace, it is best to leave it for a moment before taking it.”

The housekeeper saw Zhao Peixiu wanting to take it immediately, and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, or else Zhao Peixiu would be afraid of scalding later on, then his position as a housekeeper would probably come to an end.

“Understood.”

Zhao Peixiu looked at the three Face Nourishing Pills in the tray, and his face was filled with smiles. There was one left over later, so she could give it to her mother. “Master Chen Dan has worked hard, please follow me.”

Seeing the smile on Zhao Peixiu’s face, the butler understood that he was extremely satisfied in his heart and slightly arched his hand at Chen Fei, leading him out of the courtyard. After all, it was Miss Zhao’s courtyard, it was better for outsiders to stay less.

“Sister, what are you looking at that Dan Master for?” Zhao Peixiu asked strangely.

“Nothing, I just think that the caliber of his refining is very high, so if you need anything in the future, you can also look for him.”

“It’s not bad yet, before I thought that at most two would come out of the furnace, but I didn’t expect that there would be one more, so that’s good.” Zhao Peixiu laughed softly.

“The housekeeper stays.” Chen Fei took the thanks given by the housekeeper and at the gate, arched his hand and said.

“This time, thanks to Dan Master Chen, I will have someone go within the alliance later to finish this mission.” The butler smiled and said.

“Many thanks!”

“The thanks should be mine.”

After a commercial blowout, Chen Fei left the Zhao Family Residence and returned to the middle of the rented courtyard.

Along the way, Chen Fei’s brows were furrowed, he always felt that the woman he had just seen in the Zhao Family Residence looked familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had met her.

“Back, did the mission go well?” Seeing Chen Fei’s frown, Chi De Feng couldn’t help but show concern.

“Well, it was completed.” Chen Fei nodded.

“Then why do you look preoccupied?” Chi De Feng asked strangely, how could you still look like this when the mission was completed.

“Just now, I saw a person in the Zhao family residence, I always felt familiar, but that face, I really haven’t seen it before.”

This was what made Chen Fei the most puzzled, if he had seen a face, he shouldn’t be able to forget the person, especially if it was still a familiar body scent. For Chi De Feng, Chen Fei had nothing to hide and told all his doubts.

“The smell can even make you familiar, this impression of yours is too deep.” Chi De Feng couldn’t help but laugh.

“Yes, a deep impression…”

Chen Fei’s words stopped abruptly, as if a bolt of lightning had crossed Chen Fei’s mind. Chen Fei finally remembered where he had smelled that flavor, wasn’t it the demonic girl that he had bumped into that night in the mountains!

Because both sides were extremely close at that time, and the form was tense, thus Chen Fei had a very deep impression of Shi Xueqin’s flavor.

Just now, he couldn’t remember because Shi Xueqin’s appearance had changed, and what he saw that night was completely different.

At the same time, Chen Fei knew why he was haunted by the person just now, because the flavor of the gold sores medicine, subconsciously, let Chen Fei will be these things together, just a moment stuck, did not immediately react to it.

But what makes Chen Fei still puzzled is that looking at Shi Xueqin that night, Chen Fei is very sure that what he saw should be Shi Xueqin’s real face only.

But whenever Shi Xueqin had changed her face, Chen Fei could see it, this point of confidence, Chen Fei still had. But on the contrary, today again saw Shi Xueqin, not only the appearance has changed, and Chen Fei still did not see what traces of disguise.

“Under this sky, besides the fact that Transfiguration can change one’s appearance, is there any other way?” Chen Fei raised his head to look at Chi De Feng, to say that Jiang Hu experience, Chi De Feng was indeed much richer than Chen Fei.

“There are, and there are many methods.” Chi De Feng nodded.

“What are the ones where no traces of disguise can be seen?” Chen Fei pursued.

“So that you can’t even see the traces of disguise?”

Chi De Feng’s eyebrows slightly wrinkled, he was aware of the high degree of Chen Fei’s Transfiguration, to be able to make even Chen Fei unable to see it, then the methods of changing appearance at once were very much less, and the ones that could be used could be said to be few and far between.

“Yes, I can’t even tell.” Chen Fei nodded and said.

“There is one that should fit what you said.”

Chi De Feng pondered for a moment and said, “A human skin mask! The refining method is unknown, and the wearing technique is near top secret, but as long as it’s used properly, it’s a complete change of appearance.”

“Human skin mask?”

Chen Fei thought of Shi Xueqin’s flawless appearance and estimated that only this kind of thing was possible. If it wasn’t for the flavor of the gold sore medicine and the faint wisp of body fragrance, Chen Fei wouldn’t have been able to detect the problem.

No wonder the Divine Flame Sect had been in addition, could not be eradicated cleanly, this enemy was completely hidden amongst the masses, even the oldest lineage within the Immortal Cloud City, and it was indeed extremely difficult to discover by normal means.

Chen Fei thought about his own performance in the Zhao family, there should be nothing wrong with it. The main thing is that when he faced Shi Xueqin, he used a fake appearance and a different body shape, so the possibility of being discovered was extremely low.

This matter is best to immediately notify the sect, but now just came back from the Zhao family, immediately rushed back to the sect, if Shi Xueqin has the heart, may be a little dangerous, prudent, can be slightly slow for a day before returning to the sect.

People can’t go back, the message can go back first. Chen Fei wrote the message and released the carrier pigeon.

“By the way, for the last two days, I haven’t heard the sound of children playing next door, have they moved?” Suppressing the restlessness in his heart, Chen Fei casually asked.

“Children? When have there ever been children in the compound next door?” Chi De Feng looked at Chen Fei, his face full of doubts.
