The Quest for Immortality-Chapter 868: Sever Gold Jade Slip (2)
The Big Han’s expression changed, and he stubbornly retorted,
"What Disguise Technique?"
Mo Hua showed displeasure, "Playing dumb with me?"
Seeing Big Han’s obstinate expression, Mo Hua’s Divine Sense stirred slightly, reigniting the Formation on the Iron Plate to its utmost limit.
Big Han’s eyes suddenly widened, his body trembling in pain, and his knees tortured, but he clenched his teeth tightly and remained silent…
Mo Hua felt it was odd, "How can he endure so much?"
Before he finished speaking, Big Han passed out from the pain…
Mo Hua was somewhat helpless, muttering to himself,
"He would rather be tortured than surrender the ’Disguise Technique"
"Is it because the ’Disguise Technique’ is so crucial that he can’t surrender it even in death…"
"Or is it because the Formation on this Iron Plate isn’t powerful enough to force out the truth from his lips?"
It’s a pity that he couldn’t use this Iron Plate himself and thus didn’t know its full power…
He would have to think of ways to improve it later…
Mo Hua contemplated silently.
Right now, from Big Han’s mouth, not enough information had been revealed.
Mo Hua planned to wake him up and make him suffer a little more to get some truth out of him.
He could almost be certain that this traitor from Sever Gold Sect was definitely hiding something.
And he must have been involved in trafficking Cultivators too, just too guilty to admit it.
So it was, Mo Hua saw no need to be polite.
Mo Hua lifted the Thousand Jun Stick, intending to awaken Big Han, but Murong Caiyun stopped him.
Murong Caiyun said helplessly,
"Junior brother, that’s enough… Don’t ’waste’ him, he still has to be handed over to the Taoist Court."
Mo Hua blinked, "Then should I go easy?"
Murong Caiyun felt a headache coming on, "That won’t do either."

Mo Hua felt regretful, "Alright then."
The mission was important, Merit Points were important, more information could be gathered later.
However, Murong Caiyun was puzzled, "What about Boss Jiang, the Bald Eagle, and the traffickers? Why are you asking him these questions?"
Of course, it was for the Four Symbols Formation.
And the conspiracy of trafficking Cultivators behind the scenes.
But these things were not suitable to be said outright.
Mo Hua then said, "I suspect he’s in cahoots with a bunch of traffickers! I had a little brother who was almost abducted by these traffickers, so I just asked in passing, hoping to find some clues to roundup them all!"
Mo Hua put on a face of hating evil as if it were his enemy.
Murong Caiyun and Ouyang Feng looked at each other, unsure whether Mo Hua was telling the truth.
Mo Hua quickly changed the subject,
"Can I search his body then?"
The Xie family’s goal was to capture, not search the person.
Ouyang Feng thought for a moment, sighed, "Go ahead and search..."
He even took out the Storage Bag found on Big Han and handed it to Mo Hua, "You might want to check this Storage Bag as well, see if you can find any clues."
Mo Hua’s eyes lit up; he immediately took the Storage Bag, but a bit embarrassed, he said,
"Senior Brother, is this appropriate?"
Ouyang Feng smiled, "It’s fine."
He too was curious to see if Mo Hua would uncover anything.
As for the Taoist Court of Bishan City, and the Xie family, given his background, he actually didn’t care much for them.
The only reason he adhered to the rules was because of the sect rules of Tai’a Sect and the family teachings of the Ouyang Family, not wishing to disgrace the sect and the Noble Clans in public.
Mo Hua immediately searched Big Han and then frowned.
He discovered that Big Han’s flesh was soft, all "fake", like something attached to the body, forging a special form.
Therefore, he could be a woman, a young man, an old crone, or a sturdy man.
Big Han’s face was clearly patched up with some kind of skin, looking very strange.
As for what he originally looked like, it was impossible to tell.
Not even with Divine Sense.
Divine Sense "sees" the essence of Spiritual Power of all things in the blankness of space, or the trajectory of Qi Mechanism, not the real appearance.
The flesh and faces are mere outer appearances.
However, the essence of "Spiritual Power" of Big Han was clearly seen by Mo Hua and silently noted in his heart.
This way, if he encountered him again in the future, he would not be able to escape…
Big Han indeed had some hidden items, and Mo Hua, without missing a single one, searched them all out and put them together with the Storage Bag.
Mo Hua went through them one by one.
Spirit Stones, Pills, Spiritual Artifacts…
Mostly things that a common Cultivator would carry.
There were some Cultivation Techniques and Taoist Skills, but they were not rare and were not linked to Sever Gold Sect.
The Disguise Technique was not found…
The only odd thing was a Jade Slip.
This Jade Slip was made of white jade with strands of gold edges.
Mo Hua found it very familiar and after a quick thought, he was startled: the same style of Jade Slip he had seen before!
Boss Jiang!
That trafficker Boss Jiang had two Jade Slips of the same style in his possession, but they were sealed, and Divine Sense could not spy on them, so Mo Hua stored these two Jade Slips in his Storage Ring.
Mo Hua’s Divine Sense moved slightly and found that this Jade Slip from Big Han’s possession was also sealed, and seemed to be sealed with the same method as Boss Jiang’s Slips.
Mo Hua’s heart skipped, and he hurriedly asked,
"Senior Brother Feng, do you know what this Jade Slip is?"
Ouyang Feng took it, glanced at it, and his gaze briefly paused on the gold edges of the Jade Slip, expressing surprise,
"This seems to be… the Heritage Jade Slip of Sever Gold Sect?"
"Sever Gold Sect!"
Mo Hua felt a chill in his heart.
So did that mean Boss Jiang was also once a disciple of Sever Gold Sect?
Mo Hua remembered something and then asked suddenly:
