Chapter 19: Disguise Technique, Sudden Change In The Escort Agency

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

On the official road, a convoy with the flag of the ‘Dragon Gate Escort Agency’ was moving quickly.

This team was Zhang Xuan and He Lingxue’s escort team. However, the atmosphere in the team was very strange.

Not only did the two escort leaders not say a word along the way, but He Lingxue’s expression had been cold since the moment she set off.

Zhang Xuan, who was in the limelight in the escort agency, was also silent.

It made the henchmen following the team very depressed. Even when they were resting, they did not dare to speak carelessly.

Under this strange atmosphere, the escort convoy traveled for five days and arrived at Feng City. The mission was completed easily and the goods were delivered perfectly.

However, the commissioning party did not come to collect the goods immediately. They still had to wait for some time.

Zhang Xuan didn’t want to see He Lingxue roll her eyes at him. He left the team and went out alone.

Feng City was similar to Lin’an City and was also a small city of the Great Zhou Empire. However, there were more pedestrians on Feng City Street than in Lin’an City.

Walking on the lively street, listening to the laughter of the pedestrians and the shouts of the peddlers, Zhang Xuan finally relaxed.

However, when he turned a corner, Zhang Xuan raised his eyebrows.

Looking at the man who quickly walked past him, a playful smile flashed across his lips.

“This thief is really everywhere.”

Although Zhang Xuan had always been relaxed, he still instantly noticed that his money bag had been taken away.

Looking at the figure of the thief who quickly blended into the crowd, Zhang Xuan slided and passed through the crowd like a fish, grabbing the man.

“What are you doing?”

The man who was grabbed by Zhang Xuan asked with a puzzled expression.

Seeing the man pretending not to understand, Zhang Xuan chuckled and said,

“Your acting skills can fool others, but it’s useless against me.”

He stole his money bag and even gave a perfectly guileless look. He was a repeat offender.

Upon hearing this, the man’s expression changed. Just as he was about to continue quibbling, a glint flashed across Zhang Xuan’s eyes.

He grabbed the thief, intending to take back his money bag. After all, thieves were everywhere, and there was no need to let a thief affect his mood.

However, when Zhang Xuan was talking to the man, he suddenly sensed a familiar aura from the man.

Figures quickly flashed through his mind, and he quickly remembered who this man was.

With his Connate Realm cultivation, he could sense the aura of ordinary people the most clearly.

The man in front of him was the man who stole his wallet in Lin’an City last time. However, this man’s face was different from the last time, but his aura was the same. Zhang Xuan was confident that he was not mistaken.

This discovery immediately piqued Zhang Xuan’s interest. Before the man could argue, he used his internal energy to control the man and pulled him into an alley.

“I don’t know you. What do you want?”

The man who was controlled by Zhang Xuan panicked and shouted anxiously.

Zhang Xuan stared at the man with a burning gaze, but he couldn’t see how the man changed his appearance, which made him even more interested.

How did the other party do it?

One had to know that he was a Connate Realm expert and could definitely be considered a top expert in the martial arts world. It might not be that everyone’s disguise could fool his eyes, but any ordinary man’s disguise could definitely be seen through at a glance.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan could not see any flaws at all. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

“Last time in Lin’an City, you took my money bag once. You didn’t forget, right?”

Zhang Xuan asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the man panicked even more, especially after seeing Zhang Xuan’s face clearly.

“You… What a coincidence. So it’s Big Brother. Look at what happened.”

The man’s quibbling words finally changed to admitting defeat.

Although he had only met Zhang Xuan once last time, the man had a deep impression of Zhang Xuan.

He knew that Zhang Xuan was different from the others. He was not someone a small thief like him could offend.

“Big Brother, this is a misunderstanding. Let me explain…”

The man rolled his eyes and took the initiative to hand over the money bag, wanting to fool him.

However, he was interrupted by Zhang Xuan.

“Tell me how you managed to change your appearance.”

Zhang Xuan was not interested in the thief. What he was interested in was the way the man changed his appearance.

Even he could not see any flaws. This wasn’t something that anyone could do.

“Well …”

The man hesitated for a moment. Sensing that Zhang Xuan’s gaze was getting colder and colder, he gritted his teeth and said,

“Big Brother, since we’re destined to meet, I’ll tell you my unique skill…”

The man quickly explained how he changed his appearance.

Disguise technique?

There was actually such a technique in this world?

After understanding the man’s technique, Zhang Xuan’s eyes lit up. This disguise technique was still useful to him.

“Brother, I’ve told you everything I know. Can I leave now?”

After revealing the disguise technique, the man carefully asked.

After getting what he wanted, Zhang Xuan did not make things difficult for the man and let him leave.

After walking around the streets and not encountering any unexpected gains, Zhang Xuan returned to the team.

Coincidentally, the client had also received the goods. The escort agency’s team returned the way they came.

The way back was as strange as when they came. He Lingxue’s face was still cold. Every time she accidentally saw Zhang Xuan, she would snort coldly and turn her head to the side.

Zhang Xuan couldn’t be bothered. He had been learning the disguise technique along the way, so he naturally didn’t have time to care about He Lingxue’s displeasure.

The so-called disguise technique was actually a group of techniques that required memorization and special methods to change one’s appearance. If one could not remember the other party’s aura like Zhang Xuan, they would almost not be seen through.

It didn’t take long for Zhang Xuan to master this disguise technique. This gave him another trump card in his future journey in the pugilistic world.

Especially with his Connate Realm cultivation, he could change his aura at any time. Those who were not more advanced than him would not be able to sense it.

With this disguise technique, he could use another identity to do many inconvenient things. This way, his true identity would not be exposed.

He had gained a lot from this escort mission.

The team returned much faster. After traveling day and night, they returned to Lin’an City in less than three days.

He Lingxue, who had been tense, finally looked better when she returned to Lin’an City.

However, when she glanced at Zhang Xuan, she couldn’t help but snort. Those who didn’t know better would think that Zhang Xuan had done something wrong to her.

However, Zhang Xuan kept a distance from He Lingxue. No matter how He Lingxue glared at him, he remained indifferent and ignored her.

However, when the team approached the east side of the city, everyone’s expression changed, especially He Lingxue and Zhang Xuan.

The Dragon Gate Escort Agency was set ablaze, illuminating half of Lin’an City.
