The Mastermind Behind the Scenes, an Unexpected Revelation!

Although these eight children did not embark on the path of cultivation, each of them possessed extraordinary physique and exceptional talent.

If one embarks on the path of cultivation...

He will surely be a genius.

Even if Chen Ning didn't understand the purpose of stealing the Innate Origin, such promising talents must possess an even more extraordinary Innate Origin.

As for why those two children were not removed from their Innate Origin.

It's probably not the right time yet.

Chen Ning couldn't just stand by and watch these two children suffer such a terrible fate.

He has to protect them first.

Just as the two sides were on the verge of a fight, tensions rose.

A voice rang out.

"Young Master Chen, please calm your anger for now. How about I enlighten you?"

The one who spoke was the Spirit Rhinoceros True God who had returned after leaving.

After Chen Ning saw him.

Still unmoved.

He won't leave this place even a fraction of an inch.

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God saw through Chen Ning's concerns.

They were simply worried that if they were sent away, the children would be moved elsewhere.

Then.

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God looked at Lang Xiaoshan and said, "You may all leave for now. I have something to say to Lord Chen. These children can stay in the hall so that Lord Chen can rest assured."

However.

Lang Xiaoshan's eyes flickered, but he did not agree.

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God was immediately enraged and said, "What? Don't you believe in me? If it weren't for me and Lord Chen, your Azure Cloud Sect would have been destroyed by Li Xiong of the Sea King Hall long ago!"

"The sect leader instructed me to keep a close eye on these children."

Lang Xiaoshan insisted on speaking.

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God said, "If there's any problem, take responsibility. Just have Chen Guan come find me."

Chen Guan is the name of the sect leader of the Azure Cloud Sect.

Upon hearing this...

Lang Xiaoshan's expression changed for a moment, then he asked his junior brothers and sisters to leave the main hall.

Now.

Only Chen Ning and the Spirit Rhinoceros True God remained in the hall.

And those eight children.

What are you trying to say?

Chen Ning's tone was indifferent.

"Lord Chen, since you've already witnessed it, I might as well Opening the Heavens."

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God laughed, "Last time you destroyed the Nine Yang Palace, I suffered considerable losses. Do you know what twenty Divine Crystal a year means?"

"So what?"

Chen Ning asked with a cold laugh.

"So, I need to find a good new home. After searching for a long time, I've actually found one."

"Azure Cloud Sect?"

"Yes and no."

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God laughed and said, "The disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect are all kept in the dark. They are truly foolish. They are only interested in helping the world and helping people, but this is also a good cover. From beginning to end, I have only cooperated with one person, and that is Chen Guan, the sect master of the Azure Cloud Sect."

Is one of him enough?

"Certainly."

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God, "Times have changed. The Innate Origin of ordinary cultivators are no longer sufficient to meet the needs of the Innate Origin Northern Territory. What they want now are top-grade innate qualities. Only those with special physiques and special fortunes are our targets."

"Chen Guan is the executor, while this god is his protector."

"Aren't you afraid that if you tell me all this now, I'll tell the Yutian True God everything?" Chen Ning asked.

Spirit Rhinoceros True God laughed heartily, "What can you be afraid of? You've already witnessed Chen Guan bringing these children back. How can you explain that? Even if you leave here, you'll still have to report to Yutian True God's abilities, I've heard of them. I'm not confident I can keep Lord Chen here, so I have no choice but to discuss a business deal with him."

"Business?"

"That's right."

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God said earnestly, "If Lord Chen is willing to keep this a secret, you will certainly not be shortchanged. The annual income of Divine Crystal will definitely tempt you."

"I don't lack Divine Crystal."

Chen Ning said calmly.

Chen Ning made a lot of money during the last Wager of the Gods of the Eastern Territory, so he really didn't need Versailles; he certainly didn't lack Divine Crystal.

"My lord, please don't say that. Who would complain about having too many Divine Crystal? Divine Crystal are essential for cultivating True God Dharma Body. Moreover, you are exceptionally talented, cultivating True God Dharma Body even before becoming a god. Your future potential is limitless. To make your True God Dharma Body stronger, you will inevitably consume Divine Crystal. Don't you agree, my lord?"

"But I have a mission to complete. If I don't finish this task, the Yutian True God will not forgive me, and I will not get what I want."

"That's easy."

Upon hearing this, the Spirit Rhinoceros True God felt there was hope, so he persuaded even more earnestly, "We can just find a scapegoat. That way, you, Lord Chen, can finish your task, and the Yutian True God can continue to accept the offerings from the beings of the Dragon-Tiger Realm with a clear conscience. In fact, from the very beginning, the Yutian True God never expected that you, Lord Chen, could resolve this matter on your own."

"Why?"

"Because... we have someone backing us, someone who can rival the Yutian True God!"

Upon hearing this...

Chen Ning's mind raced.

I remembered someone.

All along.

Everyone has overlooked one fact.

That is.

There are two Upper God in the Dragon-Tiger Realm.

Only.

When Chen Ning came into this world.

That Upper God has already disappeared.

The Dragon-Tiger Realm is now entirely under the control of the Yutian True God.

"So, behind the Northern Territory is the Willow God?" Chen Ning asked in surprise.

Although that Upper God has disappeared.

But Shenhao still knew.

"Exactly."

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God laughed and said, "Chen Guan was once a disciple of the Willow God. Now you should understand, right?"

What does the Willow God need those Innate Origin for?

"These kinds of important matters are beyond my reach, a lowly being like myself. Let's join forces and focus on acquiring the Divine Crystal. Wouldn't it be better to leave the struggles between important figures to them? It's wise to play dumb sometimes."

"What a wonderful example of 'playing dumb'!"

Chen Ning muttered something to himself, then resolutely said, "But I can't just stand by and watch these children be murdered by you."

It has lost its Innate Origin.

For someone with a high level of cultivation, it might only affect their future cultivation prospects, making it difficult to make any progress. But for a child who hasn't even embarked on the path of cultivation, directly plundering their Innate Origin would mean certain death.

Let's set aside the emotional aspects for now.

Even if it's just to complete the task assigned by the Yutian True God, it's not worth the risk of going with the Spirit Rhinoceros True God; it's completely unnecessary.

Obtaining the Azure Lotus of Life safely and securely is the most important thing.

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God paused for a moment, then continued to persuade, "Lord Chen, please reconsider? If we join forces, with your status, our future prospects will be truly dazzling!"

"You probably have no future..."

A cold voice rang out.

The Spirit Rhinoceros True God was startled.

The voice did not come from Chen Ning.

It's not behind it, but behind it.

Now.

The palace doors had been opened at some point.

The isolation Technique Method cast beforehand by the Spirit Rhinoceros True God also completely failed.

That broad figure exuded a terrifying aura that was suffocating.

This man had white hair and beard.

Especially striking are her long eyebrows.

Great God White Brows!

After meeting him.

Even the Spirit Rhinoceros True God's legs went weak.

He never expected the other party to appear here.
