Chapter 46: Plan
🕑 Added 2023-05-16 20:06:34 +0000 UTCAmong the ancient eight clans, excluding the already eradicated Xiao Clan, there were currently seven clans remaining, including the Soul Clan. Among these seven clans, the biggest rival of the Soul Clan was the Gu Clan.
Outside of the Gu Clan, the Soul Clan didn't even bother to consider the other ancient clans. It was not an exaggeration to call them trash.
Although it might be insulting to refer to them as such, it was the harsh reality. These insignificant existences, if not for them being continuously covered by the Gu Clan, the Soul Clan would have long taken care of the other ancient clans.
Their presence was always a nuisance.
Not only were their strengths dwindling, but more importantly, they possessed the invaluable treasure, the Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade, without having enough power to protect it.
It was the guilt they bore.
"A commoner's innocence is the crime of carrying a precious jade."
Their greatest sin was possessing the Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade.
Since it was unrealistic to expect them to surrender the jade willingly; it could only be forcibly taken from them with absolute strength.
But there was no rush to seize it.
Soul clan can take their time.
Once they acquired the Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade from the Gu Clan, the other five clans would be next.
The Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade had been in their possession for far too long. It was time for a new owner.
...
"Hun Tu, contact and arrange undercover agents in the other six clans and hand this over to them."
Hun Tiandi opened his storage ring, and six pieces of Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade floated in front of Hun Tu.
"This is..."
Hun Tu looked at the six pieces of Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade floating before him, his eyes slightly widened.
He was surprised because the aura emanating from these six pieces of jade was exactly the same as that of the Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade in the Soul Clan.
The only difference was that each of these six pieces had a different shape and size.
The other three Demon Saints also focused their gaze on the six pieces of Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade.
They were shocked and looked at Hun Tiandi, asking, "Clan Leader, when did we acquire the Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade from the other six clans?"
In the eyes of the four Demon Saints, these six pieces of Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade floating before them were genuine.
It really can't get any more real.
Upon hearing this, Hun Tiandi's lips curled up slightly, saying, "Hun Tu, Hun Sha, Hun Jing, Hun Yan, the four of you are quite easily deceived. These are six fake Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades that I created during my seclusion."
"These six fake Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades really managed to deceive all of you. Originally, I had some concerns, but now it seems that they are convincingly fake."
Thinking of this, the smile on Hun Tiandi's face grew even wider.
These six fake Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades were crafted by Hun Tiandi throughout the year, imitating the Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades of the Soul Clan and the Xiao Clan.
To make these fakes more authentic, Hun Tiandi even used a method to replicate the aura of the Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades from the Soul Clan and the Xiao Clan onto these six fakes.
Although in the eyes of Hun Tiandi, these six fakes had some semblance of authenticity, they were still fakes.
After all, it was extremely difficult to make fakes appear genuine.
Originally, Hun Tiandi had some concerns about the success of his plan.
However, when he presented these six fakes and even the Four Demon Saints, who were Seven-Star Dou Shengs, couldn't discern that they were fakes, it boosted Hun Tiandi's confidence in his plan to deceive with fakes.
...
"Fakes?" The Four Demon Saints were slightly stunned upon hearing Hun Tiandi's words.
They reached out their hands, each holding a piece of Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade. They carefully observed them.
Whether it was the material or the aura emanating from these Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades, they were identical to the real ones! They never expected that these were actually fakes.
If it weren't for the fact that the speaker was Hun Tiandi himself, they would find it hard to believe that these six pieces of Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade were fake.
Hun Sha, one of the Four Demon Saints, said, "Clan Leader, these six pieces of Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade are incredibly similar to the real ones. They are convincingly fakes."
The other three Demon Saints quickly chimed in, agreeing.
They marveled at the fact that Hun Tiandi was able to create such highly realistic replicas of the Tuo She Ancient god’s Jade that even they couldn't see through.
If they couldn't tell that they were fakes, then it should be enough to deceive the other ancient clans. It was truly impressive.
Thinking of this, the Four Demon Saints looked at Hun Tiandi with a hint of awe in their eyes.
The Clan Leader truly lived up to his title. He could come up with such clever strategies and effortlessly obtain the Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades from the other ancient clans without any effort or casualties.
It was truly impressive.
...
Listening to the flattery from the Four Demon Saints, Hun Tiandi couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction.
Over the years, he had been diligently cultivating in seclusion, seemingly neglecting his intelligence.
But now, he realized it fully. Intelligence was a form of strength, having the power to destroy the heavens and the earth.
Fortunately, he had awakened to this realization in time.
Hun Tiandi looked at Hun Tu and said, "Hun Tu, you have always been in charge of the undercover agents from the six clans. I will leave it to you to deliver these six fake Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades to the hands of the undercover agents."
"Understood," Hun Tu nodded.
He collected the six Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades and said, "Clan Leader, it won't be difficult to deliver these six fake Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades to them. But replacing the fakes with the real ones might not be achievable in the short term."
Hun Tu also pointed out the difficulty.
It was indeed not challenging to deliver the fake Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades to their assigned undercover agents. The real challenge was how to replace the fakes with the genuine ones.
Hun Tiandi replied, "You don't need to worry about that. Just deliver these six Tuo She Ancient god’s Jades to their hands one by one. Let them know not to be too hasty. Opportunities will come."
Since Hun Tiandi came up with the idea of deceiving with fakes, he naturally planned to provide opportunities for the undercover agents among the six clans.
"Very well!"
"I understand!"
Hun Tu nodded. If the Clan Leader said so, what else could he do? He would carry out the arrangements.
"Oh, Hun Tu, take good care of Qing Lin, the one I sent to you. This child has the potential to become a Dou Sheng. Her future achievements are limitless," Hun Tiandi said, looking at Hun Tu.
Hun Tu quickly nodded and said, "Clan Leader, rest assured, I will wholeheartedly nurture that little girl."
Qing Lin had excellent talent.
Although she didn't possess the bloodline of a Dou Di, she had the rare Jade Snake Three-Flower Pupil on the continent and her cultivation speed was not inferior to some of the younger generations in the clan who possessed the bloodline of a Dou Di.
No mentor would dislike having a clever and talented disciple.
Especially since Qing Lin was the one the Clan Leader specifically requested to be taken care of, Hun Tu liked her even more.
"That's good," nodded Hun Tiandi.
He thought of something and continued, "When Qing Lin reaches the strength of a Dou Zun, let her go out and experience the world!"
