Chapter 306: Amazing acting skills

"Where's the person who hired you?" Du Ge asked.

"In the woods over there," the farmer replied. "He said if anyone agreed to cooperate, I should bring them over."

"Lead the way," Du Ge sheathed his sword and instructed.

The farmer glanced fearfully at Du Ge, bent over to pick up the two baskets of peaches on the ground, and led the way.

Du Ge called out to the dazed Luo Shuang.

Luo Shuang snapped back to reality, gave Du Ge an awkward smile, and quickly followed. She couldn't help but glance at the cut on the farmer's face that Du Ge had made.

The characteristics of the Heavenly Demon described in the announcement kept swirling in her mind.

Leng Shi, who was severely injured, suddenly let her go, his wounds healed quickly, blood pouches, undercover, extensive knowledge, and he left immediately after seeing the blood test at the city gate...

A series of clues converged in her mind, pointing to one truth—Heavenly Demon.

Her newly acknowledged master was highly likely to be a genuine Heavenly Demon who had possessed someone.

Previously, the story Leng Shi fabricated seemed flawless, but it always felt a bit off. However, when she considered him as a Heavenly Demon, everything made perfect sense.

Heavenly Demon?

Her master was actually a Heavenly Demon in these chaotic times!

Luo Shuang's heart pounded rapidly, and she occasionally glanced at Du Ge, feeling a bit lost.

"Princess, what are you thinking about?" Du Ge, with his keen senses, immediately noticed Luo Shuang's abnormality.

When he saw the announcement, he realized he might have been exposed.

But Du Ge didn't take it seriously. He thought his disciple, whom he had personally trained, wouldn't be that foolish. Now it seemed he might have overestimated her.

"Nothing," Luo Shuang forced a smile and said perfunctorily, "I was just wondering what the Heavenly Demon would look like. I've never seen one before!"

"Neither have I," Du Ge said, looking at the farmer's back. "In a while, I might have to cut the Heavenly Demon twice to see if they really heal as quickly as the announcement says, and if you have to cut off their head to kill them..."

The farmer's shoulders, carrying the baskets, trembled slightly.

Looking at Du Ge's calm demeanor, Luo Shuang had a fleeting thought that maybe he wasn't the Heavenly Demon after all.

Too natural.

Maybe she should pretend to accidentally cut him to verify her judgment...

What could his keyword be?

"After talking for so long, I still don't know what you think of the Heavenly Demon," Du Ge's voice, as if coming from the sky, struck Luo Shuang like lightning, jolting her awake.

That's right!

Du Ge gave an awkward smile, cupped his fists again, and said, "Sir, your behavior doesn't match the Heavenly Demon described in the announcement, and your wound hasn't healed quickly. I was actually testing you just now. Please forgive me."

Damn!

The farmer's face changed instantly. He looked at Du Ge, shook his head, and said, "Mr. He, you truly are an imperial teacher. I, Wu, am ashamed."

After saying this, the wound on his face healed quickly.

Seeing the wound heal rapidly, Luo Shuang couldn't help but widen her eyes. Standing between two Heavenly Demons with a combined total of eight hundred tricks up their sleeves, she suddenly felt as naive as a fool.

For now, it seemed her master was more formidable, playing the other party like a fiddle without them even realizing it.

"Mr. Wu, you're too modest. Actually, we are also desperate, trying anything in a crisis," Du Ge said, slightly stunned by the healing wound but quickly regaining his composure, his micro-expressions perfectly controlled.

Then.

While guessing the other party's keyword, he explained their current situation in detail.

Alien Star warriors who possess bodies do retain memories.

Some unlucky ones might lose their memories, but that's rare.

This time, Pan-Universal Entertainment changed the rules, making everyone possess bodies randomly.

So, the possessed person's experiences limit them. Even if they have memories, they might not be useful.

If he was a killer, it would be easier to deal with.

The one who possessed the old farmer might only have memories of farming and feeding cattle, with his world knowledge limited to his immediate surroundings.

Expecting him to understand the major events of the world in a few days was indeed difficult.

"...That's about it," Du Ge said. "Now, the princess only has me as her guard. Dragon Fang's assassins are blocking our way to Chongming Kingdom to seek reinforcements. We are going to Qinglan Sword Sect for help. The announcement said the Heavenly Demon has supernatural powers to disrupt the world. If you can help us overcome the current crisis, we will agree to any request you make..."

"Please help me," Luo Shuang bowed to the farmer again and promised, "Sir, if I can reclaim Qingwu Kingdom and avenge my father and brothers, I am willing to grant you the position of national teacher."

The farmer looked at Du Ge and Luo Shuang, instinctively holding his breath. Helping the princess restore her kingdom, was this the main storyline of the Alien Star Battlefield?

Was he really this lucky?

Did he just casually catch two big fish?

"Mr. Wu, I know this is very difficult. If you are unwilling, we won't force you, but please keep our secret..." Du Ge's words were humble, but his hand quietly gripped the sword hilt, ready to kill if the farmer didn't agree.

A tough guy!

The native's intelligence was too high.

The farmer looked at He Xu, then at Luo Shuang, and made a decisive decision. He knelt on one knee, cupped his fists, and said, "Princess, Mr. He, I am honored by your trust. Wu Chang is willing to serve the princess with all my might."
