The female subordinate walked step by step to Yi Tianran and said coldly, "Please open your arms so I can examine you."
After a moment of silence, Yi Tianran opened her arms and let her search her thoroughly, finding two daggers and some self-defense tools.
All of these are fine.
The female subordinate then took out a bottle of makeup remover and tissues, saying, "Please remove your makeup."
Yi Tianran said, "I didn't wear makeup, not even lipstick."
The female subordinate observed carefully and indeed could not see any trace of makeup on her face.
Just as he was about to take it back, Chu Lin's cold voice rang out from behind him, "Even if it's not made up, you still have to remove it. Just think of it as washing your face again."
He had somehow crossed the crowd and stood opposite Yi Tianran, his eyes fixed on her.
Everyone else has been checked and there are no problems, so she's the last one left.
Therefore, her every move could not escape Chu Lin's eyes.
Under that oppressive gaze, Yi Tianran sighed helplessly, "Alright, since it's the employer's request, I naturally won't disobey."
As she spoke, she took the tissue soaked in toner and wiped it on her face.
At that moment, Kai'Sa's pupils contracted sharply, her heart was in her throat, and she was prepared to fight to the death.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Time passed second by second. Yi Tianran wiped her entire face with a wet tissue. When she put the tissue down, she saw that it was still the same face as before, without any change.
Kaisa was completely dumbfounded.
What... what's going on?
Could she have mistaken someone for someone else? This isn't Yi Tianran; she wasn't even part of this group at all.
No way!
Before they set off, Yi Tianran had already shown her this disguised face.
But why didn't removing the disguise remove it?
Yi Tianran raised her eyebrows and said with a faint smile, "I know I look rather fierce and my sharp eyes aren't very likable. Now that you've seen it, boss, is there no problem?"
Chu Lin felt a pang of disappointment.
She had thought that woman would definitely use her superb disguise skills to sneak in! It seems she overestimated her.
She had no intention of taking any risks at all.
He clicked his tongue in annoyance, "Alright, all of you, come with me into the ancient tomb!"
The moment he turned around, before anyone noticed, Yi Tianran winked playfully at Kasha.
Kaisa: "..."
This must be Yi Tianran without a doubt!
When did her disguise skills become so advanced?
In fact, Yi Tianran had already prepared herself mentally when she chose to join the team from the very beginning.
After all, Yi Qilin and Chu Lin had been so close before, and even Yi Qilin knew about her disguise, so how could she not tell Chu Lin?
Once he finds out, he will definitely be wary of everyone around him. When selecting people to explore the ancient tomb, he will surely suspect that she may have infiltrated the group.
So this time, her disguise was no longer a simple makeup technique, but rather she used a special potion applied to her face to fix this face shape.
Unless it is cleaned with a special solution, no one can see through this disguise.
Fortunately, everything went as she expected.
Following Chu Lin's footsteps, the group traversed the desolate mountains for more than half an hour before finally entering the entrance of an ancient tomb underground.
A chilling, eerie atmosphere permeated the surroundings.
It's only natural that a place where corpses are buried would be filled with yin energy.
However, she couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Chu, we've already arrived at the entrance of the ancient tomb. Has the master mechanic you mentioned earlier not appeared yet?"
"Don't rush." Chu Lin remained calm as he pushed open the door to the ancient tomb, and a dampness and dust blew in with the cold wind.
Everyone squinted, choked by the choking.
Yi Tianran also subconsciously reached out and covered her eyes.
As the dust settled, she removed her hand and seemed to see a dark shadow flash past her eyes.
Someone murmured, "Was that a ghost or a spirit?"
Everyone: "..."
What kind of nonsense are you spouting in an ancient tomb?!
Chu Lin snorted coldly and gave his trusted subordinate a wink.
The subordinate obeyed the order and immediately darted out. A few seconds later, he grabbed a man by the collar and brought him in front of the crowd.
Only then did everyone get a clear look at the other person's appearance.
He was dressed in dirty clothes, his long, messy hair almost covered his eyes, he had stubble on his chin, chapped lips, and a pale, thin face. At first glance, he looked like a zombie.
Others might not recognize him.
But Yi Tianran only needed one glance to know that the person in front of her was the mentor she had been searching for all along, Donald!
At that moment, she felt a lump in her throat, and if she hadn't clenched her fists tightly, digging her nails into the flesh of her palms to keep herself awake, she would have almost burst into tears.
Donald was once so full of vigor, and now he is just as pathetic.
It's clear that he's suffered a lot during this period.
"This is the master mechanic I was talking about." Chu Lin grabbed his hair and forced him to raise his head and look at the crowd.
Donald's expression was blank; he remained silent like a puppet, showing no pain or anger, as if he were isolated from the world.
Yi Tianran gritted her teeth, trying her best to control the anger in her chest and not let herself impulsively go up and beat him up.
"Can he really lead us into the ancient tomb like this?" someone asked skeptically.
Chu Lin snorted, leaned close to Donald's ear, and warned, "Hey old man, stop playing dead. If you keep this up, believe me, I'll kill you."
Upon hearing this, Donald didn't even blink, remaining frozen in place, unmoved.
Chu Lin clicked his tongue in displeasure.
Over the years, no matter how much he abused him, threatened him, or used his life as leverage, Donald refused to help him decipher the mechanisms of the ancient tomb.
This person's willpower is so strong that it's frightening.
Even Chu Lin was helpless against him.
As far as he knew, only Donald had ever entered this ancient tomb and emerged unscathed.
He needs to use the other party to obtain the treasure, so there's no way he could really be killed.
But things are different now.
He has already found something on this guy.
Thinking of this, Chu Lin sneered and leaned close to his ear, saying, "Do you think I really can't do anything to you? Let me tell you, if you don't cooperate with me to get the treasure, you might as well kill your precious disciple."
Upon hearing this, Donald's empty eyes showed a strong emotional fluctuation.
He stiffened his neck and raised his head, his voice hoarse as if sand had entered it, "What...what did you say?"
"You know best what you're saying," Chu Lin said smugly. "Do you really think I can't find anything on you? You've lived in the US for so many years, and you've trained a disciple, haven't you? Tell me, if I announce your whereabouts to the public, won't your disciple take the bait and walk right into my trap? I can finish her off anytime."
