Not a Ghost

Clapping his hands together, Mu Di Bai got up and said, "Alright, you better get prepared. Even if I'm helping you cover, all I can do is lend a helping hand. Unless you want to face this tribulation head-on, you'll have to head out for a while. After all, it's an effect of gathering hatred. If you run away and change your appearance, they won't magically know how to find you, right? Haha."

Stunned, Di Tou took a moment before asking in a hesitant tone, "Is that why you had me take up your appearance?"

Blinking, Mu Di Bai said in a casual tone, "Why else? Would it really have been so hard to give you a random identity to play with? The tribulation is a hammer that's ready to fall. No matter how you hide and delay, it is destined to fall. At most, you can try to let someone else take the brunt of it."
