TFDC Chapter 91.1



Chapter 91.1 - Kicked out of the sect




Lou Qingwu returned to the Leaning Wind Pavilion, but didn’t find Thousand Face.


These two days that she went to the Night Prince’s residence, she used the same excuse she told Lou Qufeng, that she’d be going to a meditative Buddhist temple.


To prevent the second madam Ruan Zhen going to find trouble for her, she told Thousand Face to disguise himself to look like her and head to the temple.


Afterwards, Thousand Face was supposed to come back but because he had some personal matters to attend to, he didn’t come back in the day when he said he would’ve.


It was only until nightfall did he appear at the Leaning Wind Pavilion.


He knocked and saw a maidservant that he didn’t recognise open the door.


He froze a moment before looking past Lan Bai and seeing Lou Qingwu, only then did he let out a sigh of relief.


“Aiyo, master, I thought I went through the wrong door. Who’s this little girl, she’s quite pretty.”

Lou Qingwu: “This is Lan Bai.”

Thousand Face looked Lan Bai up and down before being glared at by Lan Bai.


Then he laughed as he walked towards Lou Qingwu, looking at her, “Master, I heard you were looking for me. Did something happen?”


“En. I have something urgent that I need to ask you about.”

“What is it? Master, just ask, if I know, I’ll definitely answer.”

Lou Qingwu thought for a moment before looking at him seriously, “Apart from you, is there anyone else who can disguise themselves to the point where there’s no difference to the real thing?”


Thousand Face froze, “Ah?”


Lou Qingwu pinched her arm, “What, there isn’t?”


Thousand Face hesitated and thought for a bit before scratching the back of his head, “It’s not that there aren’t but master, what made you think of this?”


“Do you still remember Su Sheng?”


“Of course I remember, didn’t she leave with Mu Yunqing? What, she’s already got him in her hands?”


Lou Qingwu shook her head, “No, it’s just that I think there’s something suspicious going on. Back then, Mu Yunqing could defy an imperial edict for Su Sheng, so why did he suddenly change his mind and decide to marry Li Xiangluan? Isn’t that hypocritical?”

At that time, they’d all been shocked about the news of Su Sheng being sold into prostitution that they hadn’t considered this.


So thinking about it today, they realised that they were a lot of things that seemed off.


She just had a feeling that it wasn’t so simple.


Thousand Face’s face slowly became solemn, he grabbed a chair to sit down on as his brows furrowed tightly.


He hesitated for a long time before speaking, “Originally, I didn’t want to say this because it’s a shameful thing for our sect but seeing as it’s master who’s asking, then I’ll say it.”

“Back then, shifu didn’t just pass on his disguising arts to me. Before me was a senior brother. It was only a pity that this senior brother did something with his disguising arts that was bad. What it was, shifu didn’t tell me, but he kicked him out of the sect. Afterwards, it was a long time after that I’d entered, did I hear that there was a senior brother above me.”

Lou Qingwu heard him finished speaking as her face was slightly startled, “Can you still find your senior brother?”


“That … I probably could.”

After all, it wasn’t easy for someone to reach their sect’s level of disguising arts.


He only had to slightly try to find him, and it’d be easy to sniff him out.


Lou Qingwu then lightly let out a breath, “Then help me investigate if your senior brother went to Jiangyin a few years ago.”

“En?” Thousand Face suddenly lifted up his head.


“Jiangyin? Isn’t that Su Sheng’s …”

He thought of something before his face changed.


“Master, you think that the person who sold Su Sheng into prostitution wasn’t Mu Yunqing, but someone who disguised himself as him?”

“.... Yes.”

They made an error.


They relied too much on Su Sheng’s personal account that Mu Yunqing sold her into prostition, thinking that she’d know him well enough, so Lou Qingwu believed her without a doubt.


But this world had the art of disguise.


If he was anywhere near as good as Thousand Face, then she was afraid that it’d be easy for him to decieve Su Sheng.


Right now, she was just hoping that that wasn’t the case.


Otherwise, she really didn’t know if Mu Yunqing and Su Sheng ….


Thousand Face realised the solemnity of the case too, patting his chest and guaranteeing, “Master, don’t worry. I’ll go investigate immediately, I believe I’ll get to the bottom of it soon.”

“En, go.”

Thousand Face quickly left and the room only had Lou Qingwu and Lan Bai again.


Lou Qingwu rubbed her forehead, her eyes staring blankly ahead, “Lan Bai, do you think … I was wrong?”

  2. I believe that it was that Lin gitl who wanted to marry him and asked for an imperial edict from the emperor. And when she found out that he didnt want to marry her she made that senior brother of Thousand Face stage everything. Let him act as MY and sell her into prostution and god knows what she made MY believe.
    If he really gated her he would'nt have kept her rosarybeads...
    God i hope its not too late to clear up this misunderdtanding and get a happy ending.
