I Am Really Not The Son of Providence

Chapter 109: Concubine Lan’s Mortal Enemy

Golden Lotus Mountain was at the west of the Divine Firmament Small World. It was at the position of the Metal element.

There was a special array set upon this Spirit Mountain that could convert normal Spirit Stone Mines.

The Spirit Stone Mines would then naturally emit dense metal-attribute Spirit Qi to help them cultivate.

The metal-attribute disciples in Divine Firmament Sacred Ground were mostly on the Golden Lotus Mountain, and it was bustling with people.

Currently, a few true disciples were chatting on the Golden Lotus Mountain.

A: “Have you heard? Our sacred ground’s Saint for the next 100 years has already been chosen.”

B: “Huh, the Saint has been chosen? Who is it? First Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, or Third Senior Sister?”

A: “Third Senior Sister is the Saintess, you fool. My cousin is quite close to Haoran Mountain’s Prime Disciple, Senior Brother Li Yunfeng. He said that Senior Brother Li had told him the new Saint is not First Senior Brother nor Second Senior Brother, but an outsider.”

B: “Outsider? How is it possible? If a person who is not a disciple of our sect becomes the Saint, how can he convince people to accept him?”

C: “Second Senior Brother is amiable and easily approachable, while First Senior Brother’s cultivation level is astonishing. Any of them could become the Saint, but an outsider? On what basis?”

A: “You don’t know this right! I heard Senior Brother Li say that the new Saint has exceptional skills. He is proficient in seeking and assessing ores, and all the Spirit Ores that he chose were frighteningly accurate. He had found the token of our sect’s Sacred Leader, the Drager Pendant, in a certain Spirit Ore shop.”

Upon sensing the longing in his Junior and Senior Brothers’ eyes, Disciple A became more and more excited as he spoke.

A: “Do you know the rules of our sect?”

B: “Senior Brother, please tell us.”

A: “Tsk tsk, the rules are quite amazing! According to the rules of our sect, there is an amazing heritage within the Drager Pendant. The person who finds the Drager Pendant could become the Saint and marry and Saintess!”

B: “OMG! The rules are this overbearing? What if our Saintess is unwilling?”

A: “So what if she is unwilling? It’s the rules of our sect, and to the sacred ground, the rules are greater than anything else. Let me tell you a secret. I heard my cousin say that our Saintess has already dual cultivated with the new Saint.”

C: “Sss, is it really true? Which kind of dual cultivation? Is it the type First Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother practice, or the other type?”

A: “What nonsense! It’s a man and woman together dual cultivating! Which type do you think it is? Seemingly, someone even heard sounds.”

B: “But seeing how our Saintess was before, she doesn’t seem like someone who would yield to a man!”

A: “What else can she do? Our ancestors’ rules are there, so Senior Sister could only yield!”

C: “That’s too much! Just because of the ancestors’ rules, our Saintess must offer even her holy and pure body?”

B: “First Senior Brother is infatuated with the Saintess. If he learns that the Saintess was forced to marry, the sacred ground will be overturned!”

A: “Just keep it to yourselves. You really can’t anyhow spread this, I promised my cousin.”

B/C: “Senior Brother, don’t worry. We will definitely be tight-lipped and not anyhow spread this!”

A emphasized again, “First Senior Brother must definitely not know!”

B/C: “Don’t worry. We are definitely not those kinds of people!”

Just as those two people finished speaking, they heard a flirtatious voice, “Where did you hear this?”

As the voice resounded in the Golden Lotus Mountain, a gentle wind blew toward them, carrying with it a tempting fragrance.

A golden-haired lady in a long silver, fine gauze dress walked toward them slowly and gracefully.

With each step she took, Spirit Qi bloomed beneath her feet, as if a mist.

Meanwhile, the lady’s originally supple body seemed to be even more tempting as she was being enshrouded in spirit mist. She could be said to have unparalleled beauty, as each time she smiled and every movement she made were filled with extreme charm.

No man in the world could stay calm in front of her.

The moment she appeared, the three disciples hurriedly bowed with their hands folded in the front. They did not even dare to raise their heads. “We pay our respects to the Peak Leader.”

That’s right. This lady was one of the nine Soul Formation Elders in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground—she was Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus of the Golden Lotus Mountain.

It was said that Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus had also been the Saintess once in the sacred ground. Her talent and appearance had been the top at that time, not losing to Zhang Yunxi at all.

Back then, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus had been proud and cold, not even sparing a glance to countless pursues by outstanding figures until that one time when she had met her.

That was the largest setback Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus had faced in her whole life—that woman’s appearance had completely dominated Golden Lotus!

…

She was holy and pure, but charming had peerless beauty but was dignified. Although her cultivation level was ordinary, she had a Heaven Immortal-like aura.

Her appearance made Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus feel completely defeated in terms of beauty, and this nearly created mental demons.

She knew that if she compared the holy and pure aura with her, she would most likely not be able to be compared with her at all in her whole life.

Therefore, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus took a different route and started cultivating the peerless Seduction Art she had obtained accidentally.

Many years passed…

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus became more and more proficient in the Seduction Art, so her attraction also became stronger and stronger…

However, 10 years ago, when she had been prepared to find that woman to compete again, she discovered that the woman had long died.

Such a fact had made Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus extremely angry, and she had even poured all her regrets and mortifications into the cultivation of the Seduction Art.

…

Now, another 10 years had passed, and her Seduction Art had already been cultivated to the peak. Her smile and her every movement could make people go crazy.

She had the confidence that even if that woman named “Lan” was revived in this world, she definitely would not lose to her again!

…

However, even so, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus still reminisced her cold self in the past deep inside her heart.

Thus, now, seeing the cold and proud Zhang Yunxi, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus felt very close to her.

One could say that Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus mostly taught the VII Divine Lightning Art (Metal).

As for the Saintess, Golden Lotus had really treated her like she was her real daughter.

Now she heard that Zhang Yunxi had to become cultivation partners with a stranger because of ancestors’ rules, and she had even been forced to go through dual cultivation with that shameless man before even joining the sect.

Even if Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus had good control over her emotions, she could not help but be fuming with rage—she had to do her Martial Niece Yunxi justice!

She coldly looked at the three disciples in front of her. “What you said just now, is it really true?”

A: “Reporting to Peak Leader, my cousin had heard it from Senior Brother Li.”

Just when Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus wanted to continue asking, a divine consciousness’ voice transmission echoed.

“Junior Sister Golden Lotus, come to the Sacred Leader Mountain quickly. I have important matters to discuss!”

This voice has no emotions. It’s that heartless Second Senior Brother!

The charming smile on Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus’ face turned colder and colder. “Now then you remember to discuss with me?”

After finishing, a light flashed between her brows, and a seventh-grade Merit Golden Lotus landed beneath her feet.

The lotus turned into a golden light that tore through space, instantly traveling hundreds of thousands of feet, appearing outside the Sacred Leader Palace’s doors.

Boom!

The door was forced open abruptly. Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus’ flirtatious but cold voice could be heard in the palace. “Oh my, Senior Brother still remembers to—”

Before Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus could finish her sentence, she was stunned. That was because she discovered that besides the shameless First Senior Brother, heartless Second Senior Brother, and her dumb disappointing son, there was another man.

He wore white clothes and had extraordinary handsomeness as if he was a heavenly immortal that had walked out of a drawing.

After looking at that unfamiliar man, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus was astounded.

There’s actually such a handsome man in this world!

Eh, why do I feel that this young man~

Looks a little familiar!

COMMENT3 comments VOTE2 left Chapter 110: Teacher, is it you, teacher?

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus was puzzled. At that moment, the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader opened his mouth. “Junior Sister Golden Lotus, you’ve arrived.

“Come, let me introduce you. He is the new Saint of our sect, Shen Tian.”

Shen Tian nodded and bowed respectfully. “It’s my honor to meet you, Aunt-Master Golden Lotus.”

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus frowned and asked, “Your surname is Shen? The emperor of the Eastern Wilderness’ Country of Fire Shen Xiao, and Ye Lanyu, are you related to them?”

After hearing Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus’s question, Shen Tian was slightly confused. “Shen Xiao is my father, and Concubine Lan is my mother.”

After Shen Tian finished, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus’ eyes were filled with rage.

You’ve gone too far!

20 years ago, you, Ye Lanyu, had relied on your beauty to win against me, stealing the limelight. If it was just this, then I would have let it pass.

However, 20 years later, your son is also this handsome, dominating my son!?

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus turned her head to take a look at her unlucky son.

Although he has fine features, he can not be compared to that kid called Shen Tian at all!

At that moment, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus became angrier at how Qin Yundi was far from her expectations.

Just look at Shen Tian! How handsome he is!

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus walked toward Shen Tian slowly. Her golden hair floated with the wind, and her eyes were filled with powerful illusory lights.

As she gracefully walked step by step, her voluptuous body seemed to be about to burst through her clothes, but her face seemed young and pretty.

That’s right, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus was using her Seduction Art, Peerless Seduction Sutra. She had to use her beauty to conquer this young man in front of her.

The person’s desire would be unlimitedly magnified if one fell into the illusion, thus being deeply obsessed with the caster.

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus’ thinking was very simple—since she could not subdue Ye Lanyu, she would subdue her son!

However, what astonished Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus was that no matter how she activated her Seduction Art, the man in front of her seemed to be extremely calm.

He had no reaction at all despite her using her Seduction Art to project all kinds of desirable scenes in Shen Tian’s mind.

One had to know was that the renowned Peerless Seduction Sutra was the most fearsome as it could let the target see the person they wanted to see the most.

The person one wanted to see the most would take the initiative to throw themselves into the person’s arms and do intimate things. No matter how high one’s cultivation level was, it was extremely difficult to resist!

However, the young man in front of her was actually able to stay calm and collected.

Finally, Shen Tian opened his mouth in front of Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus. “Teacher Sola Aoi¹? Is that you, teacher²?”

His words made Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus’ mouth twitch like crazy, instantly taking damage and bending forward.

God!

Just why did I cultivate the Seduction Art so painstakingly for 100 years? For what purpose!?

Ye Lanyu, you can ignore my beauty, I have nothing to say. But, even your son is humiliating me like this!

I have tried my best to show off my charisma in front of him to arouse his desire, but in the end, he actually saw a teacher?

Is your son a blockhead? Just what kind of teacher could be even more charismatic than me?

Is it possible that the Seduction Art which I had cultivated so painstakingly for 100 years, is really useless before your bloodline?

For a moment, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus was crazily questioning the reason for her existence. Naturally, she stopped using the Seduction Art on Shen Tian.

Shen Tian shook his head, and when he regained his consciousness, cold sweat dripped down his back for a moment.

Indeed, danger is everywhere in the cultivation world. It’s full of schemes!

To think that even this Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground would secretly make a move against me.

Just now, when Shen Tian had accidentally looked Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus in the eyes, many scenes had appeared in his brain.

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus, who had originally been standing in front of Shen Tian, had suddenly turned into a familiar affectionate ‘teacher’.

If it was not for Shen Tian ‘training’ his mental fortitude in his previous life and reaching the sage mindset from being through countless similar situations, he would most likely have lost it and embarrassed himself with that look just now.

At that moment, the Sacred Leader praised, “Good, very good. Tian’er, even though your cultivation level is low, your Dao Heart is this steady.

“You’ve actually seen a teacher from Junior Sister Golden Lotus’ illusion, well done.

“You should know, being reckless and fighting ruthlessly will only bring about one’s doom. Only by reading more books and learning can one improve!

“Continue maintaining such an innocent heart. Our sect is relying on you to lead us to prosperity in the future!”

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus could not help but feel uncomfortable upon hearing the Sacred Leader praise Shen Tian. Others’ children were really always more outstanding than one’s child.

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus’ unreliable son was not hardworking in cultivating. His peers were mostly in the Golden Core stage, but he was still in the Foundation Establishment stage.

Originally, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus was already feeling uncomfortable.

Now, she saw that Concubine Lan’s son had already become the Saint, and the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader was complimenting him, even preparing him to become the next Sacred Leader!

Heavenly Venerable felt depressed again as the psychological trauma was once again resurfaced.

She said with a black face, “Sacred Leader, why have you called for me?”

The Sacred Leader smiled slightly and replied, “Junior Sister, you’ve given birth to a good son!”

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus was in a daze.

Senior Brother is praising my disappointing son?

She looked at Qin Yundi, but she saw that the Qin Yundi now had his hair fluttering and his narrow eyes squinted as if he was proud of something.

As a matter of fact, it was the first time Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus had seen her son in such high spirits.

The Sacred Leader smiled as he explained the Yin-Yang Water Reverse Dao to Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus and used the gun to shoot her.

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus was shocked by such a miraculous power.

My disappointing son has actually researched such a miraculous Dharma artifact?

It does not use any strength from the laws above the Golden Core stage, but it’s actually able to threaten Golden Core cultivators.

However, upon learning that Shen Tian was the theory and Dharma artifact’s main contributor, while her son was only a tool to create it, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus had a mental breakdown.

As expected, my son is still as disappointing as always. His persona did not change.

The Sacred Leader said, “Although this was a theory that the Saint proposed, Martial Nephew Yundi also has the credit of helping the Saint to create the Dharma treasure.

“Therefore, I have decided to build an additional secret palace at the Golden Lotus Mountain, specifically for the production of these types of Lightning Talismans.

“Meanwhile, Junior Sister Golden Lotus’ mission is to create a Dharma artifact that can be used repeatedly to gather lightning and separate water.

“Such a Dharma artifact must be sealed and carved with an advanced concealing array formation. You definitely cannot allow others to know the secret within.

“The disciples participating in the mission only need to convert their Divinity into lightning to be poured into the Dharma artifact, then the Yin-Yang gas will be able to be emitted from the other side.

“According to Tian’er, if this Dharma artifact could simultaneously absorb the Yin-Yang gas into the talisman and directly create the Lightning Explosion Talisman, then that would be even better.”

The Sacred Leader looked at Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus with a smile and said, “It should not be too difficult to create the Dharma artifact according to such requirements, right?”

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus said coldly, “The core of this Dharma artifact is the concealing array formation, the rest is simple. Even those in the Saint realm could not easily see through the Sky-Deceiving Array that I carve.”

The Sacred Leader nodded. “Then, as the sacred ground’s representative, I thank Junior Sister.

“If the Yin-Yang Lightning Explosion Talisman is officially sold, 40% of the net profit will go to the Saint, 10% to Yundi.

“If Junior Sister is willing to preside over the Golden Lotus Mountain and supervise the creation of the talismans, then from the remaining 50%, the sacred ground will give Junior Sister 20% as your compensation.

“Junior Sister definitely won’t be disappointed.”

As the Sacred Leader finished speaking, the profit splitting was decided after the production line was created.

Shen Tian and Qin Yundi were forced to take 50%, and Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus would be responsible for the supervision of the daily follow-up manufacturing, taking 20% of the profit.

Meanwhile, as the Lightning Talismans’ sale platform and the powerful background that helped back everyone up, the sacred ground took 30% of the net profit.

In conclusion, the emotionless Sacred Leader was quite generous toward one of his people.

Almost everyone present had obtained benefits.

That’s right, almost everyone… A certain First Senior Brother had been excluded!
