Chapter 505: Chapter 323 Stone_1

“You secretly seized this opportunity, and yet you still remain so arrogant. Do you truly believe we are so easily bullied? Perhaps in regular times we might grant you slight leniencies, but now, before the Sacred Seat’s opportunity, everyone is equal.”

The Heavenly Saint Sect Leader sneered. He had never gotten along with the Heavenly Sword Sect and their conflict had reached the extreme. He wanted to reclaim the opportunity that belonged to the Heavenly Saint Sect and keep it from being taken by outsiders.

Originally, due to a minor difference in a single word, the Heavenly Saint Sect had been mistaken for the Heavenly Sword Sect, a misunderstanding that had persisted for hundreds of years. Their reputation and strength paled in comparison, causing continual unease in his heart.

The Heavenly Sword Sect Leader did not reply but directly summoned his weapon. The Law’s Force took shape in mid-air, countless larger laws started to circulate in the space, and all the sect leaders felt a hint of pressure.

This dumbfounded the others. The Heavenly Sword Sect Leader was serious. He was even willing to go down with everyone for the Sacred Seat’s opportunity, disregarding his life. This was indeed admirable. However, since they were all at half-step to the Saint Seat, who was stronger than who by how much?

The others simultaneously summoned their weapons, while Celica Shingo coughed: “Everyone should settle down. Let’s not start fighting because we don’t agree with one thing. The Heavenly Sword Sect Leader, why not just take out the opportunity? Although the Sacred Seat’s opportunity is precious, it’s not enough to make everyone fight over.”

“I believe, for all the sect leaders gathered here, the Sacred Seat’s opportunity is not the main concern. It’s the Supreme Treasure of the Demon Beast clan that matters most. What if the opportunity of Heavenly Saint Daoist and Beast King was given to you? Isn’t it true that everyone is vexed because you’re keeping everything hidden? Can’t we each take a step back?”

The Heavenly Sword Sect Leader resolved not to explain further and scolded fiercely: “I might say it a million times and it wouldn’t change anything. I didn’t get the so-called opportunity and am not interested in saying anything more to you blockheads. You want to be played for fools, that’s on you, but the Heavenly Sword Sect has never been afraid of anyone. Why should we bow down?”

This weighty statement plunged the other sect leaders into deep thought. The Heavenly Sword Sect Leader didn’t seem to be lying. Could it be that he really didn’t get the opportunity, and it was all a misunderstanding on their part? Looking at it this way, the matter became serious, perhaps they were wrong to accuse the Heavenly Sword Sect Leader.

Ever since the rumor spread, it had been six or seven hours, and the Heavenly Sword Sect Leader maintained his composure. He didn’t lead his disciples to flee but calmly waited for them several people to come question him. This was undoubtedly a clear conscience on his part, or else he would have fled without a trace long before.

“I trust the Heavenly Sword Sect Leader. After all, although the rumor has spread and everyone knows about it, no one can produce any evidence. Why don’t we send out our own men to investigate and see who is responsible?”

Celica Shingo was the first to express his opinion. Other sect leaders also nodded, deciding to temporarily trust the Heavenly Sword Sect. Anyway, all the sects were stationed here, and if the real evidence was conclusive, they could take action later.

Even the Heavenly Saint Sect, who was filled with hatred, couldn’t help but take a step back: “I will have my people watch your Heavenly Sword Sect. If there’s any sign of fleeing, don’t blame me for being ruthless. At least until the situation is investigated, no one can leave.”

“I understand. I have a clear conscience and am not afraid of being investigated,” The Heavenly Sword Sect Leader also withdrew his murderous intent. Regarding these rumours, he too wanted justice. If he found out who was behind this, he would definitely seek revenge.

After consulting with the six major sect leaders, this matter was provisionally set aside. They all demanded their disciples not to spread the rumor any further. The capture of Logan was their top priority, not internal sect conflicts.

On the other side, Manager Johnson grinned, quite pleased with the development of events. He had accomplished what he promised Logan and could comfortably collect his twenty thousand spirit stones. No one suspected him at all. One must say that earning spirit stones was quite easy, especially since he merely fabricated a rumor.

Originally, he thought a major battle was on the brink among the several great sects, only for the situation to suddenly resolve. This left him baffled. But soon he realized everything; the major sect leaders were reluctant to ruin relations with each other given that everything was based on rumours and no one could assert that the Heavenly Sword Sect Leader did secure the opportunity.

But none of that mattered. After all, Logan did not say that it was necessary for the sects to start a major fight. After dark, Logan came to Manager Johnson’s tent and directly threw out ten thousand spirit stones. Added to the previous ten thousand spirit stones he had given, Manager Johnson had received a total of twenty thousand. freёweɓnovel.com

“You did a good job this time. This ten thousand spirit stone is your reward. However, your performance is still not up to par. You did not stir up any real trouble, just caused some chit-chat among the crowd. What I want is a fight between the several major sects. Can you make that happen?”

With a profound expression, Logan looked at Manager Johnson. “I’m not stingy. If you can do it, I can give you another twenty thousand spirit stones. However, it can’t be another minor scuffle like this time. I am not a fool to be trifled with. If you cannot produce results for me, be prepared to face the consequences.”

“That’s too difficult; it involves grave matters.” Manager Johnson immediately shook his head upon hearing this. If the few great sects started fighting, the situation would definitely be something he couldn’t deal with. Thousands of people would be involved. If the matter was traced back to him, he could hardly imagine the consequences.

Having already received twenty thousand spirit stones, Manager Johnson was quite satisfied. He wasn’t short of resources for cultivation. Even if Logan gave him another twenty thousand spirit stones, it actually wouldn’t mean much. After all, he wasn’t a greedy person; he wanted spirit stones just to buy resources for breakthrough to the Dominator Realm.

Logan smiled playfully, taking a sip of tea. “Alright, but there will certainly be more rumours spreading tomorrow. For instance, the collaboration between you and me. If the Heavenly Sword Sect Leader gets wind of it, it would be enough to make his hair stand. You are a smart man, you should know the consequences, right?”

Upon hearing this, Manager Johnson exploded. Logan was threatening him. But in the next moment, he lost his temper because every word from Logan was reasonable. From the moment he made a deal with Logan, there was no way out. He and Logan were like grasshoppers on the same rope.

“Can I return the twenty thousand spirit stones and you spare me?” Manager Johnson looked to Logan pleadingly. He didn’t want to involve himself in a storm. One wrong move could cost him everything. Unlike Logan, he didn’t have a powerful array. No one would save him if something went wrong.

“Of course, you can. You don’t want the spirit stones, it’s fine. After all, I didn’t spend a single spirit stone. However, the rumors that will spread tomorrow can’t be stopped. It’s all happening regardless of whether you return the spirit stones.”

Logan fixed his gaze on him. He wanted Manager Johnson to think clearly that he had to continue their cooperation. Only when Logan himself was safe could Manager Johnson’s secret be guaranteed to stay hidden from everyone. Otherwise, even if Logan did not expose him now, if he was caught in the future, he would.
