Villain : After Slacking Off, The Protagonist Collapse - Chapter 158

Chapter 158: Convergence Flower

“As expected! The news has arrived!” Dongfang Mingyue approached Jiang Chen, lying on the chair beside him.

It seemed she had been influenced by Jiang Chen’s lazy demeanor, becoming more relaxed herself.

Jiang Chen glanced at his master beside him. He had to admit, his master’s figure was excellent. Her white dress accentuated her perfect figure, her graceful body making one’s blood boil.

Combined with her holy face and transcendent aura, it was like a potent poison, exuding incredible charm. Even the most steadfast person would kneel before her.

“What news? What bait are they using?” Jiang Chen was curious and wanted to know what method they would use.

“A cave left by a former Supreme Origin Dao Body, containing Dao insights! Do you think this is attractive enough?”

Dongfang Mingyue said calmly, “The Heavenly Domain is going all out to kill you, even finding something like this!”

“Indeed, very attractive! If I don’t go, it would be unexpected!” Jiang Chen smiled and said, “They were smart enough to spread the news openly, attracting various forces, especially those with ulterior motives, to use them to test us!”

“But they miscalculated. These forces may not become their knife!”

Currently, the active quasi-emperors in the Nine Heavens Realm were few, though many were sealed in divine sources. These were ancient reserves, not to be awakened unless absolutely necessary.

In other words, these hidden forces were unlikely to have quasi-emperors. Without quasi-emperors, they had nothing to worry about.

“Not necessarily! Some forces might go crazy, like certain ancient imperial clans! The Holy Land offended many ancient imperial clans, and recently you’ve caused them significant losses.”

“Your talent alone would make them send quasi-emperors! So, caution is still necessary! Moreover, we may not be fully prepared!” Dongfang Mingyue said seriously.

Plans couldn’t keep up with changes. In their current situation, it was hard to follow their original plan.

“In that case, leave a void mark in the forbidden area! Let some ancestors help as a contingency!” Jiang Chen thought for a moment, realizing the wisdom in caution.

Given the unpredictable changes, sticking to the original plan might lead to mistakes. Being prudent, leaving some backups was wise.

“Master, you can also involve the Pure Yang Holy Land! But we’ve asked for their help many times. It wouldn’t be right not to give them something in return!” Jiang Chen smiled.

“It’s not necessary. The two Holy Lands are like brothers. They won’t mind!” Dongfang Mingyue didn’t worry, as the Pure Yang Holy Land had been similarly helped by the Primordial Holy Land in the past.

The two were accustomed to supporting each other.

“But still, giving some benefits is better than nothing! I know a place with something they want! A flawless Pure Yang Root. How do you think the Pure Yang Holy Land will thank us?” Jiang Chen said calmly.

Although their relationship was good, giving a gift would strengthen it. Most importantly, others might not care, but you should still give.

Relationships sometimes needed tangible links. Without them, they would fade over time and Jiang Chen understood this well.

“Alright! The Pure Yang Root is of little use to us but crucial for the Pure Yang Holy Land! If they get it, they’ll be very grateful!” Dongfang Mingyue laughed.

“Master, send a strong practitioner to secretly scout the cave! Be cautious, don’t expose anything. Make them believe we’re planning something!”

“And not just once, but multiple times, to make them certain we’re going! Only then will they believe!”

To completely trap these pests, Jiang Chen had to plan meticulously and no mistakes are allowed.

“Yes!” Dongfang Mingyue knew the importance, nodding.

Almost simultaneously, Jiang Chen looked towards Mu Jianxue, “Soon, you can have your revenge! Don’t worry, this time there will be no mistakes!” As his voice fell, the void rippled and quickly calmed.

Southern Region.

In the boundless void, the Great Elder and an old man walked side by side.

This man was Zi Qingyan’s protector and the two were old acquaintances. They knew each other well. If he remained hidden, he would be discovered. So, the Great Elder didn’t hide, directly revealing the demon’s plan to prepare.

He would also protect Zi Qingyan. The two forces had a good relationship, no major conflicts. Moreover, the Primordial Holy Land rarely killed human prodigies, unless the two forces were at odds.

Most importantly, with Jiang Chen in the Primordial Holy Land, the Taiching Dao Sect posed no threat. Naturally, they weren’t too wary.

“How did you know this?” The strong practitioner of the Taiching Dao Sect, Zilei, asked softly.

“Don’t ask me! Ask our Holy Master!” The Great Elder smiled, deflecting the question.

Zilei rolled his eyes. Asking the Holy Master would only cause trouble.

“Though it’s a plot, the Convergence Flower is real! You must protect Zi Qingyan. Her importance is immense. If the demons get her, it will affect the entire Nine Heavens Realm!

“This time we can protect her, but next time we might not be able to! So, be vigilant!” The Great Elder sighed.

“No need to say more. After this, the Saintess will likely go into seclusion, not emerging until she reaches the Great Saint realm!” Zilei sighed.

The demons’ tricks were endless. To avoid them, they could only stay within the Taiching Dao Sect.

Outside was too dangerous.

As time passed, in a perilous place, a peculiar flower appeared before the crowd.

This flower took root in the void, surrounded by a unique aura, as if countless Dao roots were anchored there.

The Convergence Flower!
