Chapter 390: Chapter 29: Infiltrating Fire Dragon Pass, How Are You So Skilled? (8K)_4

In the end, four unlucky fellows were chosen.

"It’s these four: Power Warrior Commander Luo Ba, Warlock Commander Rah, Warlock Commander Xu Ba, Power Warrior Commander Huo Wei."

"When you play the roles later, try not to talk if you don’t have to. These four are in the same shift group. If there are any communication needs, leave it to me and Old Chen."

Chen Shijie said sulkily, "You do it. I only know the common language, and the Fire Demon Clan speaks ’Nanhai Language.’"

He really needed to brush up on it when he got back.

Chen Shijie thought to himself.

It was not something he usually did. How could someone like a Nine-Section Minister of Agriculture imagine doing this kind of thing?

Obviously, he was not as versatile as Zhao Xing.

....

In the Underground Cave Space, in a cave, there was a large jade bed placed in the center.

Surrounding it were some flowers and plants, and outside the bed, there was a fountain.

For Luo Ba, as a Power Warrior Commander, the conditions underground weren’t too harsh.

The food and supplies were decent, just a bit boring.

There wasn’t much entertainment, nor were there any fragrant women.

"It’s almost over."

Luo Ba rolled over on the bed and stretched lazily.

Today’s schedule for Luo Ba was no different from usual: clock in for work, take a nap; after work, find a woman.

Simple, monotonous.

The other commanders were almost the same, even though they were at war with Great Zhou.

But what did that have to do with Fire Dragon Pass?

This stronghold had never been breached.

History had proven it many times.

The position of commander at Fire Dragon Pass had now become a cushy job, with good pay and little work, without any fear.

Even a general would not trade for it!

"Who should I play with today?"

Luo Ba, after stretching, touched his crotch, picked his nose, and then bent over to grab the bag on the bed.

The next second.

His movements stiffened.

A flat, small hole appeared on his forehead.

Luo Ba watched his vision blur, and everything went black as his consciousness faded.

"Hiss~"

Before Luo Ba’s body fell, a flame emerged from the small hole in his forehead, and then he turned into ashes.

From the wall, Zhao Xing, Long Xiao, Yu Ziqi, and Chen Shijie came out.

"Long Xiao, turn into Luo Ba, quickly."

"Roger."

Long Xiao immediately touched his ear. Then he shook and transformed into Luo Ba.

They had already used the Qianji Mask to capture the appearances of the four Fire Demon Clan members.

Now, it was easy to change forms.

"Now, I’m Luo Ba." Long Xiao grinned, resembling Luo Ba quite a bit.

"Let’s go."

"Wait." Zhao Xing pointed to the flowers and plants next to them. "Instant Primordial, soul-binding grass man, rise!"

Those ordinary flowers and plants were instantly elevated to the third rank by Zhao Xing.

He then quickly cut them down, gathered the materials, and created a grassman.

Zhao Xing activated his discerning eyes, searching for Luo Ba’s three souls.

After Yu Ziqi killed Luo Ba, his Life Soul immediately entered a wandering state.

"Bind!"

Luo Ba’s Life Soul was instantly absorbed into the grassman.

Right now, with the soul-binding grass man, Zhao Xing could only bind the Life Soul.

Heavenly Soul, Earth Soul, he couldn’t manage those.

But that was enough.

Because even the Southern Barbarians’ priests struggled to summon a person’s Heavenly Soul and Earth Soul.

The Heavenly Soul is the rebirth soul, and the Earth Soul is the karma soul.

To summon rebirth and karma souls required someone on the level of a God of Fate First Grade.

In the Southern Barbarians, that would be a Heavenly Witch at such a level.

However, the Life Soul was easier to summon.

Zhao Xing had to collect Luo Ba’s Life Soul. They didn’t know how long it would take; to be safe, they killed Luo Ba and then collected his Life Soul.

Moreover, after binding the soul, Zhao Xing could also extract memories from this guy’s Life Soul.

If it was too long ago, it wouldn’t work, but recent memory fragments were no problem.

"Gurgle, gurgle~"

The grassman was now left at the bottom of the hot spring in the cave, about eight meters deep. It was hard to spot unless one looked closely.

"Now, we can go."

.....

Long Xiao exited the cave and, following prior instructions, went to find Warlock Commander Xu Ba.

Because this was his ’brother,’ the two of them worked at Fire Dragon Pass.

They had a very good relationship.

"Xu Ba, it’s time to get off work!" Long Xiao called out outside Xu Ba’s cave.

In the Southern Barbarians, going to and getting off work was a trend, mainly learned from Great Zhou.

Great Zhou officials above the fifth rank called it attending court; those not qualified to participate in court discussions called it going to work, since the places where they handled affairs were called offices.

The rituals at Divine Mountain in the Southern Desolate, the Spring Festival, and many other things were copied from the Qi Fortune Dynasty of Central Earth Divine Continent.

"Brother, why does your voice sound strange today?"

Xu Ba, a Warlock Commander, asked.

His senses were keen, and when Long Xiao approached, he felt something was off.

After all, they were close, so it was easy to detect abnormalities.

"I’m not feeling well today," Long Xiao said. "We..."

"Hiss~"

Xu Ba also stiffened, then turned to flames and vanished.

It was Yu Ziqi who made the move.

"I wanted to try to get some intel, yet you killed him directly." Long Xiao muttered.

"With your poor acting skills, even your Nanhai accent carries a Xier County dialect, and you expect to get intel?" Yu Ziqi sneered.

"Who the hell are you looking down on? Like you can speak it fluently!" Long Xiao retorted. Colleagues often became rivals, and Long Xiao and Yu Ziqi followed different paths, so they often bickered.

Chen Shijie said, "Alright, is this the time to chat? Zhao Xing, change your outfit quickly."

"Yes."

Zhao Xing touched his earlobe and transformed into the appearance of Xu Ba.

"Now, I am Xu Ba."

"Now, I, I, am Xu Ba."

"Brother, why does your voice sound strange today?"
