Chapter 350: Real or Fake

"I\'m worried that as soon as I take my eyes off it, the World-Dominating Halberd will disappear," Yun Chaoxian said with some concern.

"The situation won\'t escalate to such an extent. No matter how skilled that thief is, there are limits," Chu Liang said. "Based on his past actions, he is able to perform some magical tricks but his greatest strength is his cunning.

"Cunning?" Yun Chaoxian frowned as he pondered.

"For example, he might disguise himself as someone you know, confuse you, and then steal the World-Dominating Halberd," Chu Liang explained.

"Huh?" Yun Chaoxian stared at Chu Liang\'s face for a moment and asked, "Brother Chu, you\'re not a fake, right?"

"Of course I\'m real," Chu Liang rolled his eyes and said irritably, "Since we left Ultimate Martial Mountain Manor, I haven\'t been out of your sight. When would I switch places?"

Yun Chaoxian glanced at the bronze mirror on the table, as if to confirm he himself wasn\'t fake either.

Chu Liang chuckled and said, "I\'ll go rest next door, but I\'ll keep my divine sense over this area. Call me if anything happens."

Yun Chaoxian appeared a bit nervous, "How about we keep watch together?"

"Then he won\'t come. Let\'s keep everything as usual," Chu Liang said. "I also want to see what tricks he has."

"Alright," Yun Chaoxian agreed, then muttered, "If his target wasn\'t the World-Dominating Halberd, I\'d actually want to see it too."

Chu Liang nodded in agreement.

Most people, except for the treasure\'s owner, would be curious about how a thief managed to steal it under such strict surveillance.

After Chu Liang left, Yun Chaoxian continued to stare at the World-Dominating Halberd. As a cultivator with abundant vitality, he could keep watch for days without needing sleep.

As the night grew darker, a sudden shout pierced the silence from outside. "Fire!"

Suddenly, a commotion erupted, and a faint glow of firelight flickered through the window.

"Brother Yun!" Chu Liang called out as he pushed the door open. "Something\'s happening at the inn. Let\'s go check it out!"

"Alright!" Yun Chaoxian stood up abruptly and began striding out.

Chu Liang quickly pushed him back as he shouted, "Take the World-Dominating Halberd with you!"

"Oh right," Yun Chaoxian remembered, turning back to grab the halberd.

When he turned around again, Chu Liang, who had been standing at the door, was gone.

"Huh?" Yun Chaoxian stepped out and saw Chu Liang emerging from the next room.

"Brother Chu, where did you just go?" he asked, feeling puzzled.

"You just saw me?" Immediately, a light flickered in Chu Liang\'s eyes as he leaped through two floors and into the air.

Realization dawned on Yun Chaoxian—the Chu Liang he had encountered earlier might have been an imposter!

Chu Liang had not left the room, and his divine sense hadn\'t detected anyone else. Unexpectedly, Li Feiyu had a method to avoid divine sense detection!

So, instead of relying solely on his divine sense, he quickly scanned the surroundings with his eyes. As expected, he soon spotted a vague, ethereal figure.

The figure stood out not only due to Chu Liang\'s keen eyesight but also because it made no effort to hide, seeming to approach deliberately.

...

Yun Chaoxian saw that the figure was identical to Chu Liang in appearance, expression, and posture. It was as though Chu Liang had performed the Immortal Technique: External Manifestation, which would create a clone.

He locked eyes with Chu Liang from across a rooftop. Then, with a swift motion, he wiped his face, revealing a mask that concealed his true appearance. With a flip of his hand, he drew out a halberd and shouted, "I took the Baxia Dual Rings from Ultimate Martial Mountain Manor out of necessity and have no intention of being enemies with the Great Astral Sect. I came to steal the World-Dominating Halberd this time just to prove my skills. Now, I won\'t take this halberd, and I hope you won\'t trouble me again."

This person was indeed Li Feiyu.

Chu Liang looked at him and smiled before saying, "Did you guess that we had prepared a fake World-Dominating Halberd?"

"Of course," Li Feiyu replied. "When Yun Chaoxian entered the inn, he wasn\'t wearing any storage-enchanted tools. But now, he\'s wearing a storage jade ring. Obviously, this ring was prepared to store the World-Dominating Halberd."

Ancient legendary weapons, like the World-Dominating Halberd, had slain countless evil entities and carried a powerful murderous aura. Such items couldn\'t be contained by ordinary storage enchanted tools.

As a result, disciples of the Great Astral Sect typically carried their legendary weapons in hand for easy access. This way, they didn\'t have to worry about finding special storage for these formidable items and could use regular storage enchanted tools for the ordinary items.

In this situation, for Yun Chaoxian to store the World-Dominating Halberd, he would need a high-level storage enchanted tool. The fact that the thief noticed this small detail was rather surprising!

"Moreover," Li Feiyu continued, "Yun Chaoxian\'s acting wasn\'t very convincing. Although he pretended to care, when the fire started outside and I called him, he didn\'t pay any attention to the legendary weapon on the table. It was clear he knew it was fake—that was his flaw."

"So, did you steal the real legendary weapon from his storage enchanted tool?" Chu Liang asked again.

Previously, he and Yun Chaoxian had indeed planned to create a fake halberd, which looked and weighed very similar to the real one. Without being infused with foundational qi, it would be difficult to tell the difference.

The fact that Li Feiyu could make this judgment and steal the halberd in such a short time showed he was sharp-minded. On the other hand, Chu Liang couldn\'t help but wonder if Li Feiyu\'s method of stealing the World-Dominating Halberd from the storage enchanted tool was similar to his own divine technique, Mystic Fingers.

"I have no interest in this halberd," Li Feiyu sneered. "If you continue to be relentless, I won\'t be so courteous next time."

"Quite arrogant of you to say that," Chu Liang replied with a smile. "Are you so sure the halberd you stole is real?"

"What?" Li Feiyu frowned. He quickly infused a bit of foundational qi into the weapon and realized that the legendary halberd in his hand was just a piece of ordinary iron. His expression changed immediately.

"I anticipated that Brother Yun might expose a flaw, so I swapped his storage enchanted tool," Chu Liang said, turning his hand to reveal the real legendary halberd.

Yun Chaoxian appeared behind him, charging towards Li Feiyu. At that moment, Chu Liang tossed the halberd to Yun Chaoxian. As he caught it, the halberd shone with a majestic glow!

Indeed, this was the real World-Dominating Halberd!

"Where do you think you\'re going?" Yun Chaoxian shouted, swinging the halberd as he chased after Li Feiyu.

As Li Feiyu\'s figure flickered, he moved as swiftly as a rabbit, instantly disappearing from the rooftop in a shadowy blur.

Chu Liang didn\'t hesitate and chased after him! The swordlight he controlled cut through the night sky. Although it might disturb the residents of Donghuai City, this was the least of his worries right now.

Li Feiyu\'s cultivation level wasn\'t particularly high, likely at the peak of the fourth realm. However, he specialized in stealth, transformation, and wind manipulation. At this moment, his figure flew like a ghost and was about to vanish from sight.

If Chu Liang\'s sword-flying speed wasn\'t as fast as a meteor, he might have been left behind like Yun Chaoxian.

The muscular man shouted loudly as the two in front sped ahead, leaving him hundreds of zhang behind.

Li Feiyu\'s shadowy figure descended into an alley and it seemed as though he had prepared another way to escape.

But suddenly, a mysterious light illuminated the area around him!

Whoosh—

It was as if a cage of light had suddenly formed, trapping Li Feiyu!

It was an enchanted formation!

Even from afar, Chu Liang recognized the Five-Prison Golden Light Formation, a classic enemy-trapping technique in formation arts.

However, he hadn\'t been the one to set up this enchanted formation.

A name instantly came to his mind. As expected, the formation was set up by Zhuge Guanxing from the Fog-Hidden Mountain of Immortals.

As the formation lit up, two figures flashed into view. One held a heavy sword, while the other gently waved a feather fan.

Sure enough, it was Li Fujian and Zhuge Guanxing!
