Chapter 504: Chapter 321 Cooperation_1

After much hesitation, Steward Johnson did not take the spirit stones, instead becoming more alert. A deposit of ten thousand spirit stones was extravagant, but it also implied an unusual request.

Logan responded with a faint smile. He understood that the other party was cautious and would not easily cooperate, but Logan was in no hurry. Due to Steward Johnson’s strong obsession with breaking into the Dominator Realm, Logan knew that Steward Johnson would have to cooperate with him if he was to receive massive cultivation resources.

“The ten thousand spirit stones are just a deposit. If this matter is handled properly, I can add another ten thousand for you. Condsider this carefully. After all, you are at the Perfect King’s Seat, but your sect only gives you a few hundred spirit stones as income each month.”

With Logan’s offer, Steward Johnson nearly swallowed his saliva. He had thought that Logan would add a little more to the offer, not double it. His eyes unconsciously heated up with excitement. If he truly received twenty thousand spirit stones, wouldn’t breaking into the Dominator Realm come within his grasp?

Furthermore, once he broke through, he would have a certain status within his sect and would not be bullied everywhere. What Logan said was indeed reasonable. His monthly income of a few hundred spirit stones was an insult, because he was now at the Perfect King’s Seat, only one step away from the Dominator Realm.

If he didn’t decide to stay in the Heavenly Saint Sect, he could join a small sect or become a guest of a Lord; either way, he would receive one or two thousand Spirit Stones monthly. He wouldn’t be as pitiful as he was now.

However, Steward Johnson still acted cautiously. He asked, “Tell me your whole goal so that I can weigh the advantages and disadvantages. If the risk factor is too high, I will definitely disagree. After all, you are currently hunted by the six major sects. Once I get involved with you, the only thing waiting for me is death.”

“Honesty is my preference. I’m not targeting the Heavenly Saint Sect, they are only hunting me. I need to find a way out for myself. The sects are all here due to the opportunity to reach the Sanctuary Powerhouse. I just want you to spread the message that the opportunity was taken by the Heavenly Sword Sect.”

Logan gave a playful smile and said: “The difference between Heavenly Sword and Heavenly Saint is only one character, and they have always had grudges. As such, the Heavenly Sword Sect will attract the hatred of other sects, and nobody will suspect you. All you need to do is spread a message and receive twenty thousand spirit stones.”

Steward Johnson was a smart man. He immediately understood everything. Logan intended to cause the other sects to make a move against the Heavenly Sword Sect, thus taking the opportunity to escape from the place of wrongdoing. For him, it was extremely beneficial. He would effortlessly receive twenty thousand spirit stones without assuming any risk.

Even if the Heavenly Saint Sect got involved, it had nothing to do with him. After all, the Elders of the sect had always bullied him and the Sect Leader had never stood up for him. Consider it as a lesson for them. Why not proceed with this cooperation? Therefore, Steward Johnson decided to cooperate.

Even if he was discovered later, as long as he could break into the Dominator Realm, he could simply leave the sect. With the wide world out there, it would be easy for a Strong Dominator to establish a lordship. He would have to face the pursuit of the sect, unless the half-step Saint Seat Powerhouse decided to suppress him.

King Steward nodded and said: “We can cooperate, but one thing needs to be made clear in advance. After receiving the spirit stones, we will go our separate ways. If you dare to spread this matter out, I will hunt you down at all costs.”

“Rest assured, I am very clear about this in my heart. Besides, with Lowen Shingo being captured by you guys, I dare to risk my life to rescue the person. This is enough to show my character that I will definitely not betray others.”

Logan heaved a sigh of relief. As long as Steward Johnson agreed, half of the matter was settled. And once this step was taken, Steward Johnson could no longer decide the matter. He would have to go down the same path with Logan, even if Logan did not give him a single spirit stone afterwards. By then, both had boarded the same boat.

Steward Johnson accepted this point. Indeed, Logan had great courage to dare to save people. Just who among ordinary people would dare? After receiving the spirit stones, fearing Logan would be exposed, he asked Logan to leave the camp immediately as the six sect leaders had already returned. Logan could not possibly escape the eyes of the half-step Saint Seat and left as fast as he could, trusting in Steward Johnson’s ability to get the job done.

Now in the camp tent alone, Steward Johnson was considering how to carry out Logan’s plan. It would be easy to spread the message, but it could not be traced back to him. He thus had a bold idea of letting someone else spread the message then silencing them.

Steward Johnson summoned his trusted subordinates and promised each a hundred spirit stones to spread the message. After the messengers returned, he cleverly killed them all. This way, there was not a single hint left and no one would be able to trace it back to him.

The next morning, some people in the camp started whispering and looking at the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect with hostility. This left the Heavenly Sword Sect confused—why were they being ridiculed early in the morning? They appeared to be without cause and no one was willing to explain.

After persistent questioning, they finally learned the truth: everyone was saying the Heavenly Sword Sect Leader had obtained the opportunity from Heavenly Saint Daoist and Beast King. In order not to share with other sects, they hid it. However, the matter was eventually revealed.

The disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect were baffled, wondering, “Could it be that our Sect Leader really obtained the opportunity but had been hiding it from us? Since our ranks are too low, maybe only the Elders know the truth.”

So, all the disciples went to the Elders to find out if the rumors were true or false. For a time, even the Elders were confused, as their Sect Leader had never confided in them. Did their Sect Leader really get the chance? Regardless of whether the matter was true or false, it had already incited the other five major sects’ hostility.

Therefore, an Elder issued an order: “All of you go out and clarify this. This is someone intentionally spreading false information. Our Heavenly Sword Sect has never obtained any opportunity. If we had, we would definitely share it equally with the other sects. The other sects must not make wanton speculations or else we will strictly punish the rumormonger.”

All the disciples received orders to clarify, but none of the other sects believed them. Instead, they grew more suspicious. If they had nothing to hide, why would they need to clarify? It rather felt like they had hit the nail on the head, especially the last few sentences with the threats. Were they afraid that the rumors would reach the ears of other Sect Leaders?

After the Elders sent the disciples away, they proceeded to see their Sect Leader since the storm had already risen. They had to inform their Sect Leader. If they really had obtained the opportunity, they should retreat immediately. In this place, they would definitely be coveted by the other five major sects. Only by returning to the sect would they be safe.

The leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect, unknowing what was happening, rebuked them: “What’s the matter with you all today? Why are you asking me whether or not I’ve obtained an opportunity? Can’t you see that I’ve been worried these past few days? You elders are not composed at all. Upon hearing some rumors, you become so flustered. Truly disappointing for a Sect Leader like me.”
