BXBX NOVEL Chapter 80 - Two-Face Mask
Sighted, Ace looks at all those headless corpses and send soul treads towards them, and within moments collect all their storage bags,
Ace didn\'t get any thief points since you can\'t steal from the dead.
Collectively there were more than fifty million ruby coins considering everyone here was a rich pig and that old man\'s wealth alone was more the thirty million.
After sorting out the items, Ace browse the girls and point his finger at one of them and ask, "What your name?"
This girl was the most beautiful of the bunch. When Ace pointed at her, she was a little bashful and nervous but still answer him shyly, "Em-Emmie."
Ace look at shy Emmie, she was the oldest in the group and also a 1st Qi Gates cultivator. Moreover, he could sense she has a very strong soul, that\'s why he picked her.
A blue storage ring appeared in Ace\'s hands and he filled it with a hundred million ruby coins and all those \'useless\' stolen techniques and skills and Alchemy Pills.
Considering he can\'t use all those techniques and books, he decided to give them to these needy girls. Moreover, he already remembered all of them in his long journey. As for the pills, he only gave them all the white-grade ones, since pills were his experiences, and even if he gave them higher-grade pills they simply can\'t use them yet. As for weapons, he didn\'t have any and money was just a number for him.
Ace also giveaway his self-created simplified version of the system\'s stealth skill!
Because system skills can\'t be taught to anyone; once he tried to teach Eva but failed. He created it after he awake from his slumber and wanted to give it to Eva when she awakes but these girls need it more.
\'I can always create more for her.\'
Ace didn\'t know his concepts can anger all those old monsters of sects to death!
Since Ace already saved them he would make sure they stay safe or what is the meaning of him saving them if they get captured again?
Ace placed the storage ring in Emmie\'s rough hand and solemnly ask, "Here this is a storage ring since you\'re a cultivator you can use it with Qi, never use it in front of others or it will be a disaster! There are ruby coins and cultivation techniques and skills inside. I also put some pills within, that will be enough for all of your to cultivate into Qi Foundation Realm. Now, I want you to take care of all your little sisters. Can you do that for me?"
Emmie was extremely shocked, she thought she\'s in a dream. She heard about those legendary storage rings because her parents were cultivators before they died in an enemy\'s hands and that person was also the one who sold her to that old villain.
"I-I\'ll take care of them!" Emmie solemnly nodded with a face fill with tears. \'He\'s so nice, even gifting us all these legendary treasures.\' She was very grateful and somewhat know; this big brother can\'t take care of them, it was already very magnanimous of him to save them all, much less giving a storage ring away like it was nothing.
Ace signed in satisfaction, seeing Emmie resolve and gratified, "Now wait for here until nightfall, after I leave you can go to this place. Remember never to show your weak side or cry in front of anyone understand? If someone…" He takes out the city map and explains to Emmie and all the other girls where to travel.
Now, he could only teach them what he knows and could only pray they could survive this cruel world.
"There is a skill book called the \'Shadow Cloak\' in the ring. It can help you hide from any 4th Gate cultivators. I\'ll explain it to you all, use it well." Ace describes the self-created skill thoroughly and gives a lecture on how to hide. All those girls learned earnestly, especially Emmie.
After teaching everything he could, Ace come to the headless corpse of the young man who was come here in the lavishing carriage of the prince manor and sighed regretfully.
\'I want to inquiry about who he was and just want to lock him up for time being, but kill him in the end. Well, he deserved it.\' Ace lament and smile bitterly but since the deed was already done what can he do.
Now he can only bite the bullet, a half black and half white mask emerge in his hand. It was precisely the two-face mask that he purchased from the system store years ago.
It was decisively the time to use it!
Ace looked at the two-face mask profoundly. He was unwilling to use this mask first because it can only save two faces. But this city prince manor\'s security level was giving him a headache and he also didn\'t know its layout, therefore he finally decided to use this mask.
That was also the whole reason for him to follow this dead young man. He wanted to \'borrow\' his face and only kidnapped him first to scout the prince manor safely. After he was done scouting, he would\'ve released him but alas his fellow was too sinister and killed by Ace because he can\'t control his nerve.
Now that he was already dead Ace can use his identity freely but the problem was he didn\'t know this guy\'s complete information. However, this change was too good to let go so he decided to take the risk.
Ace pour Qi into the black and white mask and the formation runes on it begin to shine brightly. That bright light envelops the head of the dead young man and his headless corpse completely. In the next few moments, the light begins to dim and finally faded.
The mask half white side was completely gone and replace it was the half face of that dead young man and other-half side was still black.
Ace was astounded by this. He only knows, he has to scan the full body of whoever face he wanted to \'borrow\'. But this change in the mask was new to him.
Since the scanning was complete Ace decided to check the effects of this mask. He places the cold mask on his face and suddenly,
======
"[Two-Face Mask detected]
[Do host want to change appearance into the profile save in white slot?]"
======
Ace was surprised for a moment hearing system sudden voice but still said, "Yes."
A white light enveloped his complete body. Suddenly, the height and structure of his whole body begin to change from outside. This was the work of formation engrave in the mask that can create a perfect illusion.
One could only see the illusionary appearance of the other party if their cultivation is below Qi River Core Realm and such is when they solely focus on Ace\'s face by using Qi. This is just how powerful the illusion formation on that mask was.
After the white light faded Ace\'s handsome face was completely gone and replace it was the face of that young man whose cold headless corpse was laying on the ground. Even Ace\'s cultivation aura was the same as him.
======
"[Two-Face Mask is active]
{Warning: Please watch out for the River Core Cultivators. They can easily see through your mask}"
=======
"Ahhhhh!"
Ace was scanning the system\'s warning when an alarming scream suddenly resounded from behind and he immediately turns around to see what happened.
Ace saw Emmie was standing behind him with a face full of horror and she was trembling while watching him with hatred and panic in her beautiful eyes.
"What happened?" He inquired in confusion. \'Why is she so afraid of me all of sudden?\'
\'Y-you! Where is big brother?! What did you do??" Emmie collect her courage and roared like a brave lioness. Just like Ace taught her. \'Never show your fear!\' But she was still shivering in fear.
Ace finally understood why this brat become so vigilant all of sudden and smile wryly it was his fault after all. "System turn off the mask."
Suddenly his face begins to crack and a half-human face and half-black mask replaced it. His figure returned to his actual height and slender self. He takes off the two-face mask and smiles at Emmie who was standing dumbfounded there.
"S-so magical! Big brother can even change his face. Wow!" Emmie exclaims while clapping her hands and all her fear were gone in smoke Her eyes were shimmering with adoration and awe for Ace. She was after all just fourteen years old girl and since Ace has saved them all he was her savior and most importantly an idol.
Ace scratches his face in embarrassment after seeing Emmie\'s worshiping eyes. It was a white lie if he said he wasn\'t feeling good to be worship by this little girl.
\'Cough\'…
Ace coughs to hide his reddening face and embarrassment, "I-it was nothing."
His voice turns stern again, "We already been here for five hours and it should already be dark outside. Do you remember what I teach you?"
Emmie\'s face also turns grave and slightly sad, "Yes! Emmie remembered everything big brother told us. After you leave we\'ll set this place on fire and escape towards the commoner region of the city and find a low-key place to stay." She recalls before continuing, "We\'ll only leave the commoner region after we become strong enough to protect ourselves."
Ace nodded in relief, hearing Emmie remember everything, and thought gratifyingly. \'She would be a great leader for this group of brats.\'
Although Ace overlooks, he was a brat himself!
