I Am Really Not The Son of Providence

Chapter 257: The Sect Master Gets Tricked

The Blood Kill Sect Master’s face was filled with rage and betrayal.

To be honest, he was gradually being convinced by the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s words.

It was not that the Blood Kill Sect Master’s IQ wasn’t high.

Although, it was indeed not that high…

But the main reason the Blood Kill Sect Master believed the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was because his failure was just too bizarre and astonishing.

It must be pointed out that their plan to release the Evil Spirit Lord had been years in the making, 1,000 years to be exact. And everything was done in the utmost secrecy.

Even within the Blood Kill Sect itself, only a few members knew of it.

The Blood Kill Sect Master had only informed the rest of his sect when the Heavenly Demon day was about to arrive so that he could lead them to the battlefield.

Their plans were still disrupted even after such careful planning. It was just too baffling.

It could still be considered rather reasonable for Hei Yuan and the rest to be captured by Shen Tian. After all, they were asking for it.

But at that point in time, the task of unleashing the Evil Spirit Lord had not even started yet. How did Shen Tian know of their plans then?

More importantly, the Blood Kill Sect Master had once secretly infiltrated the battlefield and visited the Dark Yin Plains. He had seen just how terrifying the Dark Yin Energy there was.

That Dark Yin Energy was under the Evil Spirit Lord’s control. It had the power to butcher Saints and was extremely fearsome.

In the Primordial Battlefield, all living creatures from the outside would have their cultivation levels suppressed to the Golden Core stage and below.

Under such circumstances, unless he had made prior preparations, how had Shen Tian managed to capture the Evil Spirit Lord?

It was obvious that the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground already knew of the Blood Kill Sect’s plan to release the Evil Spirit Lord. And so they had set a trap for them.

There must be some other Evil Spirit sub-sect secretly supporting them in this entire process, hoping to annihilate the Blood Kill Sect.

Otherwise, how had Shen Tian gotten teleported there? He was the Divine Firmament Saint! There was no way his teleportation could have gone wrong. And even if it had truly gone wrong, there were so many other places he could have ended up in. Why had he ended up in the exact same valley as the Blood Kill Sect Master?

This was all too much of a coincidence!

…

Sinister plot. This must all be part of some sinister plot!

It must be the Seven Kill Sect. That old fool from the Seven Kill Sect must be trying to kill him!

The Blood Kill Sect Master gritted his teeth. “Didn’t expect that traitor Seven Kill Sect to have reached so deep amongst my subordinates.”

Although the Evil Spirit Sect’s members appeared to be unified on the surface, each sub-sect was extremely cautious toward one another.

They knew that everyone in the sect was bad eggs and would never hesitate to try and harm one another.

As a result, the locations of the main camp quarters of the weaker sub-sects were all highly classified. They would never reveal this information to anyone, not even to members of the other sub-sects.

Otherwise, things would not have been so peaceful within the various sub-sects over the past 10,000 years. They would have already been rooted out one by one by the sacred grounds and completely annihilated.

In theory, the various sub-sects stayed out of each other’s way. But only a few of the sub-sects truly stuck to that principle.

Most of the time, the sub-sects in the same region would somehow bump into each other. As a result, there would always be times when they cooperated or fought.

The Blood Kill Sect and Seven Kill Sect were the two largest sub-sects near the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground. They were also situated relatively near each other.

In the Blood Kill Sect Master’s opinion, if there was a traitor in the overall Evil Spirit Sect, it would definitely be the Seven Kill Sect. No doubt about it.

After all, the Blood Kill Sect and Seven Kill Sect had a lot of bad blood between them.

The Seven Kill Sect definitely had a motive to kill him!

…

“That scoundrel! How dare he plot against me!?”

Upon noting the anger in the Blood Kill Sect Master’s eyes, Shen Tian secretly observed a moment of silence for him.

If not for the fact that he had personally experienced it, he would have also believed the Sacred Leader’s words.

After all, it was just too coincidental.

Master is indeed formidable! You have utterly tricked this stalwart and unyielding man.

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura rippled gently. “My friend, can we talk about cooperating now?”

The Blood Kill Sect Master was taken aback. “Cooperation? How?”

The Sacred Leader replied calmly, “Very simple. Give me information about the Seven Kill Sect in exchange for your life. How about that?”

Give him information about the Seven Kill Sect to exchange for my life? That simple?

As if he could read the Blood Kill Sect Master’s thoughts, the Sacred Leader continued. “Well, of course, it’s not that simple. I also need you to pledge your loyalty to me.”

Pledge my loyalty? Impossible!

The Blood Kill Sect Master smirked. “I am a great Saint. Pledge loyalty to you? Are you worthy?”

The door appeared once again beside the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader. “Oh? Never mind then.”

The Blood Kill Sect Master’s scalp went numb upon seeing the excited Scarlet Flame Apes on the other side of the door.

“Ahem, calm down. This pledging of loyalty thing is a bit too much. But… But we can still talk about cooperating!”

The door disappeared, and the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader said, “Tell me everything you know about the Seven Kill Sect. Agree to be my spy within the Evil Spirit Sect.

“If so, I can promise to let you go. Otherwise, you can go accompany those Scarlet Flame Apes!”

The Blood Kill Sect Master felt a deep sense of resignation.

“Many people witnessed my capture by your men. You want me to return to the Evil Spirit Sect to be a spy? That would be as good as sending me to my death!

“You should know of the Thousand Illusion Queen. She is the best at illusions and bewitchment. I will not be able to withstand her bewitching arts.”

The Blood Kill Sect Master was speaking the truth.

After all, the Evil Spirit Sect had managed to survive for 10,000 years. Perhaps some of the sub-sect masters were fools, but the sect’s upper management levels were definitely no fools. They would not be that easily tricked.

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura rippled. “If you are willing, I have my ways to help you. To deceive others, one must first deceive oneself. Let me explain.”

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s voice was calm and impassive.

The “Infernal Affairs” ploy against the Evil Spirit Sect had started.

…

Two hours later, Shen Tian and the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader left the lightning world.

At this point, Shen Tian was full of awe and respect for his master.

Capturing such a high-level mafia boss and turning him into his spy!

Luckily, he was his master. If he was his enemy… Shen Tian felt a tremble of fear at that thought.

“Tian’er, I brought you along to interrogate the Blood Kill Sect Master to show you that although we are of the righteous path, we must sometimes resort to more unusual means.

“Power does not discriminate between good or evil. Use it for good, and it will be good. Use it for evil means, and it will be evil. The key thing is to maintain a true heart.

“Do you understand?”

Shen Tian thought about it.

“Do you mean that I should use shameless methods against shameless people?

“As long as my intentions are good? If so, since they are already shameless, there’s no need to feel sorry for them?

“Is this what you mean, Master?”

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura vibrated intensely. “Ahem, yes… Yes, that’s what I meant.

“But I was just showing you an example today. There’s no need to use the same methods in the future unless absolutely necessary.

“After all, one should always walk on the bright main road whenever possible and avoid using the shady back lanes unless absolutely necessary. You are the Son of Providence, and you need to maintain your reputation.

“Even for me, I have only used this kind of extreme method once or twice over the past thousand years. This is not something to be used frequently.”

Shen Tian nodded. “I understand. As shameless as the person is, I should only use such methods when it’s worth it, right?

“For people of our status, we need to maintain our upright reputations.”

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader looked at Shen Tian with a serious expression. This disciple of his was indeed a quick learner and worth his guidance.

It was just that Tian’er’s words were too… direct.

Shameless methods? That’s too blatant!

He is still too young.

He needs more practice on making politically correct remarks!
