Chapter 408
"This is Beifeng? The Beifeng I have been searching for so long?" Looking at the man lying on the ground, Li Huowang felt like he was in a dream, his mind buzzing like he had been drinking.
Ever since he learned that Beifeng had a way to get rid of illusions and control the innate energy within the body, Li Huowang had been thinking day and night about how he would find him.
But he never expected that when Beifeng appeared in front of him, it would be in this situation.
"Him? Is he really Beifeng?! Zhuge, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" Li Huowang looked at Zhuge Yuan in astonishment.
"Yeah, there's no mistake. This man is Beifeng. He was hiding among those eunuchs, and I saw him. But..."
Li Huowang trembled and clasped his fists towards Zhuge Yuan, saying heavily, "I can't thank you enough for this great favor!"
After saying that, he immediately squatted down and carefully helped Beifeng up, taking out a dagger to peel off his face.
After flipping through several layers, when Li Huowang saw the mahjong tile with Beifeng's name carved on it in flesh and blood, he was so excited that he almost cried.

As Li Huowang's trembling fingers brushed over the flesh and blood tile, the tile, made up of flesh and blood, began to speak.
"Hehehe, look at you, so happy. What's wrong? Are you my long-lost son?" Beifeng's voice was old and hoarse.
Li Huowang took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement, and said with a trembling voice, "Beifeng, Beifeng, I've been searching for you so hard."
"Oh? You've been searching for me so hard? Well, it seems that I won't die until you empty what's inside my belly."
Li Huowang seemed to have not heard him, gripping the dagger in his hand that was dripping with blood, and approached him, looking into his eyes.
"Brother Beifeng, can you help me with a favor? Please tell me how to get rid of those illusions as a heart disciple. As long as you can tell me this method, even if I release you directly, we can negotiate!"
Whether he agreed or not, Li Huowang had already made his next move in his mind, but he didn't expect the other party's reaction to be beyond his expectations.
"Heart disciple? Hehehe, who told you I'm a heart disciple? I am Beifeng, that's true, but I'm just pretending. Only the fourth brother is the heart disciple, not me."
At the moment he heard these words, Li Huowang's pupils shrank to the smallest size. "Fourth brother?"
This simple nickname, like a ghost, made Li Huowang's suspended heart fall into an invisible abyss.
Seeing Li Huowang's expression, Beifeng's face showed a hint of pride. "What's wrong, young man? Haven't you played mahjong before? Isn't it normal to have four North tiles in a set of mahjong? Four... red dragons?"
"Four North tiles? Does that mean there are four red dragons?!" Li Huowang's mind exploded.
The next moment, Li Huowang, with a distorted expression, lifted him up in the air. The dagger in his hand had already been inserted into his abdomen and began to slowly stir.
"It's impossible! At this point, you still want to deceive me! I'm telling you! Since you've fallen into my hands, death will be a luxury if you don't give me that method!"
Just as Li Huowang was about to go through everything he had experienced and ask Beifeng again, Zhuge Yuan, who was beside him, spoke up, his tone somewhat awkward.
"Um, Li Xiong, this person is indeed telling the truth. I actually haven't finished speaking just now. Although this person is Beifeng, he is not a heart disciple. Although he pretended to be a heart disciple, I could tell the truth from the false."
Zhuge Yuan's words were like pulling out Li Huowang's backbone, making his face instantly pale.
He looked at Zhuge Yuan, not knowing what to say for a while.
Li Huowang almost couldn't catch his breath. If there was anything more painful than having nothing, it was seeing something within reach and then losing it again.
"You like storytelling so much, why didn't you tell me about these four Beifengs before?"
Zhuge Yuan tapped his forehead regretfully with the folding fan in his hand. "Ah, I thought you knew, but I didn't expect you didn't know about this. It's not too late for me to tell you now."
"You know, these Taoist sects that deceive beings can change their faces and disguise themselves. To outsiders, they always appear with one face, but behind the scenes, this face is actually shared by four people. So outsiders think that each suit of the Taoist sects only has one person."
"By constantly changing the positions of the same suits, the Taoist sects have deceived many people."
Finally catching Beifeng, at this moment, he had lost all value. A surge of blood rushed to Li Huowang's head, causing him to raise the dagger in Beifeng's belly and tremblingly stab it towards his heart.
Blood was flowing from the corners of Beifeng's mouth, and the pain distorted his features, but he didn't care at all. Instead, he looked at Li Huowang contemptuously. "Hehehe... so you're from the Elysium Sect? A bunch of self-righteous fools."
"Li Xiong, you can't kill him. I'll leave him to you. Maybe he knows something." Seeing the arrogant smile on Beifeng's face, Li Huowang couldn't extinguish the fire in his heart, but in the end, he forcibly suppressed that evil fire.
The "True Scripture of Fire Elysium" was picked up from the ground, and Li Huowang began to heal Beifeng.
Seeing Li Huowang's actions, Beifeng's laughter became even louder. "Oh? You're not going to kill me? You must have a favor to ask of me, hahaha."
After Beifeng's abdominal wound was wrapped in a layer of burn scars, Li Huowang looked at the appearance of the captive in front of him again. Beifeng now looked like an ordinary old man.
At this point, being disappointed and angry was of no use. Instead of wasting time on this, it was better to think about how to make up for the loss."Since you are one of the Beifengs, and the four of you share the same face, where are the other three Beifengs? You must know, right?" Li Huowang asked.
"Hehehe, it seems I guessed right. Since you're looking for the fourth one, your identity must be Xin Su, right? Want him to tell you how to escape from Xin Su's confusion?" This Beifeng had already deduced Li Huowang's purpose.
Seeing that the other party remained silent, Li Huowang neatly arranged the torture tools in front of Beifeng.
"I really look down on you people from the Aojing Sect, always using the same trick. You don't use your brains at all. Fine, I'll tell you what you asked, but..."
At this point, Beifeng's mouth curled up slightly, his eyes slanted as he looked at Li Huowang in front of him, "But, do you dare to believe what I say? Don't forget, I'm from the Taoist sects that deceive beings, hehehe..."
