Chapter 1147: Chapter 632: Caught on the Spot_2 Chapter 1147: Chapter 632: Caught on the Spot_2 “`
In the moment of crisis, a flash of spiritual light went through Song Huangdae’s mind, and he finally thought of a reason and an excuse.
He did not know if the Book Pavilion contained the Void Law Body, but he did know that after Elder Chen had breached Mountain Shaker Peak, he had once sought information on the Void Law Body from cultivator families in Rock Country.
Thus, he guessed that Divine Wood Sect must have obtained this body refining technique. Logically, it should have been placed in the Book Pavilion so that all sect disciples could select and cultivate it.
After finishing his explanation, Song Huangdae waited for Chen Mobai’s judgment. Facing a Golden Core Cultivator, he certainly had no power to retaliate; he could only hope his guess was not wrong.
As time went on, the prolonged silence made Song Huangdae’s heart grow heavier. Just when he thought he was about to die, Chen Mobai finally spoke.
“Hmm, I personally placed the Qi Cultivation chapter of the Void Law Body into the Book Pavilion.”
Although these words were spoken lightly, they sounded like heavenly music to Song Huangdae. He let out a sigh of relief but still kept his head low, not daring to meet the gaze of the ruler of the Eastern Wilderness’s greatest evil force, afraid that Chen Mobai might notice any flaws.
“But I did not include the key to cultivating the Void Law Body with the Void Stone in the record. How did you come to know this?”
Song Huangdae had only relaxed halfway when Chen Mobai’s second sentence choked him up again.
“Reporting to the Sect Leader, I saw it on a book at a stall in Northern Abyss City. My favorite thing is to read such messy books, and my classmate Han Zhiling is most aware of my habit.”
Song Huangdae could only continue to fabricate. To gain Chen Mobai’s trust, he had to bring Han Zhiling into this, hoping the name of the top graduate would add a degree of credibility.
“Which book was it?”
Chen Mobai looked at Song Huangdae who kept his head down, not daring to raise it. Chen’s smile at the corner of his mouth grew wider, and although his tone was gentle, his eyes became sharper.
“I think it was ‘Stone Naming Guide’. It’s been a while, and it mentioned that Void Stones contain the Power of Void, which can aid in cultivating spatial techniques and divine skills. When I first joined the sect, I saw the Void Law Body in the Book Pavilion, and I wondered if I could cultivate it using this method. I tried it, and to my surprise, I actually succeeded…”
As the web of lies grew, Song Huangdae became calm. His tone became smoother, as if this had indeed happened.
“Fu Shixiong and I said before that if anyone in the sect managed to cultivate the Void Law Body, we would pass down the subsequent chapters as well. If they possessed exceptional talent, they might even be taken in as disciples.”
Chen Mobai spoke again, his tone still gentle. Upon hearing this, Song Huangdae bit his teeth and steeled his heart, preparing to prostrate himself before his arch-enemy.
“Rise. To become my disciple now, at the very least, you must be at the Foundation Building Realm.”
Chen Mobai flatly released a surge of spiritual power, stopping Song Huangdae’s attempt at worship.
“Yes, yes, Sect Leader. I was overambitious…”
After getting back to his feet, Song Huangdae smiled awkwardly at Chen Mobai but breathed a huge sigh of relief inside, feeling that he had just managed to get through this ordeal.
As for verifying his words later when Chen Mobai returned to the sect and checked the Book Pavilion, Song Huangdae couldn’t care less about that now.
After all, he had decided that once he fooled Chen Mobai into leaving, he would dig up Green Dance, pack up, and flee, never to return to Giant Tree Ridge.
“There’s one last question.”
At this point, Chen Mobai smiled and spoke again. Song Huangdae’s mind raced, thinking about how to lie next.
“When I put the Qi Cultivation chapter of the Void Law Body into the Book Pavilion, I deliberately changed its name to Void Spirit Body.”
With these words from Chen Mobai, Song Huangdae immediately turned ashen, his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.
“Elder, please spare my life. I’ll tell you everything…”
The threat of death caused Song Huangdae’s defenses to completely break down. All thoughts of vengeance, the Restoration Society, and such were thrown out of his mind.
He kept kowtowing to Chen Mobai, only wishing to save his own life.
Half an hour later, Chen Mobai was somewhat surprised by the truth Song Huangdae confessed.
He was actually the remnant of Mountain Shaker Peak. His father, Song Xishun, was once a nominal disciple of one of the nine former Peak Masters, Ji Yunshi, but he offended a member of the Ji family and was expelled from his sect by Ji Dingjin under a pretext, becoming a Loose Cultivator.
However, Song Xishun always regarded himself as a disciple of Mountain Shaker Peak in his heart, bearing the lineage of Mountain Shaker teachers and students before Ji Zhenshi.
Because of this, he survived the great purge by Divine Wood Sect after they annihilated Mountain Shaker Peak.
Afterwards, Song Xishun helped many enemies of Divine Wood Sect. One of the former disciples from Mountain Shaker Peak recognized him and invited him to join an organization called the Restoration Society.
The organization was vast; within it, Song Xishun was partnered with a Loose Cultivator as a Dao Companion. They had Song Huangdae, and then on a mission, they never returned.
The young Song Huangdae was told his father had been killed by King Zhou, the Town Guard of Sky Country, while carrying out a revenge mission against Divine Wood Sect.
He naturally harbored this grudge against Divine Wood Sect and, under the organization’s arrangements, came to Northern Abyss City with his mother to make a living. Later, he even managed to join the Longevity Academy and gradually entered Divine Wood Sect.
But his plan for revenge had just begun when he was caught red-handed by the leader of Divine Wood Sect.
