Yi Zheng was still using the Light Mask skill, so even though the Divine Beast had activated his Spirit Wisdom and turned him into a Wild Monster, he still retained the tag of a neutral animal to be observed.
Now he was in an awkward position. If he turned off the Light Mask, Mingming and Bifang would see right through his attributes instantly, and even a fool would know he had been pretending dumb and harboring ill intentions. Given Bifang's personality, he would likely send Yi Zheng back to Zero Level in an instant and have him rolled back to Newbie Village to munch on carrots.
But keeping the Light Mask on meant he might lose his chance to cultivate this time.
What a dilemma...
They say fortune favors the bold, but that applies only when there's a chance of success, and right now, Yi Zheng saw no hint of such possibility.
So, Yi Zheng could only continue to play dumb, watching Mingming with his head tilted, pretending nothing had changed.
