1166 Scared my foot
“…”
“…”
Silence fell over the room as Nux and his wives glanced at each other with solemn looks on their faces.
“There is no need to act like this. It is not like we haven’t already expected this.”
Suddenly, Ember spoke up, wanting to lift the dull mood. “We already knew the Black Order would have Complete Divine Stage Cultivators in their ranks. The fact that we had our first encounter with them without them knowing about it is a great thing that should be celebrated.”
A smile appeared on Ember’s face as she tried to cheer others up.
Another day had passed after Morwen ‘escaped’ from the Bloodmoon’s ambush and returned to her clan, for an entire day, they healed her wounds and told her to rest, today, however, she was finally called to give her report.
And there, she met not one, but three Complete Divine Stage Cultivators, residing inside the Fallen Clan, the Clan Morwen was part of and even she had absolutely zero clue that these people were part of her Clan. That was just the level of memory manipulation the Black Order did.
Anyways, the three cultivators then interrogated her and looked into Morwen’s memories, the good news, although they did have a slight change in their expression when they were reading her memories, they had not killed her, yet.
So Morwen’s infiltration into the Black Order was complete.
The Bad news, however, was the fact that they saw 3 Complete Divine Stage Cultivators in just one day.
“Fallen is merely one of the Clans that are being supported by the Black Order yet they already have 3 Divine Stage Cultivators, there are around 30 Clans of that level all over Yrniel, if we consider all of them have at least 3 Divine Stage Cultivators as well, then the Black Order would have a minimum of 90 Complete Divine Cultivators and right now, we are not even considering the chances of their being a few Divines in the weaker Clans, overseeing everything, and the actual manpower of the Black Order that is still hidden.”
Nux spoke with a grave look on his face.
Even Incomplete Divine Stage Cultivators were rare existence in his eyes, now however, he realized that the clans he was trying to face with had Complete Divines as their backings.
“Does it actually matter? They erased Morwen’s memories of meeting them right after they checked her memories, the fact that they were going to such lengths to hide makes it clear that they are not planning to make any move yet.
We simply need to be careful and continue what we are doing until we are strong enough to actually face them.”
A playful smile then appeared on Ember’s face and, “And you will reach that level soon enough, no? After all, you plan to defeat that Dragon Lady, those people are nothing but vegetables in front of someone like her.”
Hearing those words, Nux couldn’t help but smile as well.
“Ember is right, rather than staying in low spirits, we should be celebrating this event, we infiltrated the ranks of the Black Order through a Complete Saint and they have no idea about this. The amount of information we can get from this, whether it is about the recent missions the Black Order is focusing on, or the future plans they have, anything we find out is something that can be used to our advantage. Not to mention that we can start enslaving more members of the Black Order now that we can recognize them through Morwen, expanding our information network and in the end, creating a web inside the Black Order, eating the organization from the insides.”
Amaya spoke, her black eyes shining clearly as a cunning smile appeared on her face. In her mind, she had already started thinking about ways to increase the number of spies inside the Black Order and the best way she came up with was, “According to Morwen, the Black Order has many ‘pawns’ like her, the ones who do not show their face and only complete missions for the Black Order.
We need to capture these pawns during their missions and turn them into our Pawns.”
“That would require us to put a Slave Seal on them, wipe their memories, play the entire thing out just like we did with Morwen, and send them back.
We would be ruining their missions again and again.
Won’t that be the same as declaring war against the Order?”
Melia questioned with a frown on her face, she didn’t want to take such a risk. There was no need to antagonize the Black Order when they already had their eyes on them.
“Who said we are going to get ourselves involved?
We would represent ourselves as a new Force, an Anti Black Order Force that interrupts the Black Order’s missions and has no relation to the ExceedoGenesis whatsoever.
Even Lady Vyriana cannot sense Nux’s presence, it is an advantage that we haven’t used to its full potential, and now is the best time to abuse it.”
Amaya spoke as she glanced at Nux.
Nux, however, thought about it for a while, and, “Are we going to use the same pattern all the time? Creating clones, attacking them from behind using the Arcane Missile, and enslaving them? Won’t it be too predictable?”
“I don’t want to risk you revealing your powers, there should be absolutely no connection to the ExceedoGenesis. No matter what, these people are still Complete Saints, even if you have the first attack, you would need to use a considerable amount of strength to win the battle, finding out it was you after the battle is traced wouldn’t be difficult if you fight normally.”
Amaya nodded.
Nu didn’t deny either, “I do need to put in quite an effort if I fight against a Complete Saint, Morwen was only a level 153 but her Battle Power was already close to me. The Peak Saints would definitely be stronger.”
“Oh? Are you saying they are a threat to you?”
Astaria questioned with a curious look on her face.
“Of course not.” Nux shook his head. “There is a big difference between them being a Threat and me not being able to defeat them in one shot.”
“But their Battle power would be higher than yours though…” Astaria chuckled, trying to tease Nux.
“Battle Power ain’t shit.” Nux snorted, then, he simply turned towards Amaya and,
“We will follow through with your plan, it may be a bit risky, but I think the rewards are worth it.
Creating an Information Web inside the Black Order, using its own members would feel absolutely amazing.”
His signature smile appeared on his face.
“They would have no clue how their information will be leaked and the members who would
desperately start searching for Spies would have no clue that the very spies they were looking for were… them.”
Felberta laughed out loud as well. Loving the Plan Amaya came up with. It was finally the time to abuse Nux’s abilities and shock the entire world.
“Also, with the information we get, we can find their Base and get the Ancestral Order to get rid of them.”
Thyra spoke, coming up with her own idea to destroy the entire organization without having to do anything.
“Now that would be anticlimactic, wouldn’t it?”
“I-If it can save a few lives, I think we should do it,” Evane spoke up, her eyes lighting with determination.
Nux glanced at the Skyfall Queen and bowed his head with a smile, “I will do as you say, my Queen.”
Evane lowered her head as she blushed.
Nux chuckled, then, he turned towards his other wives and, “So? What are we going to do next?” he questioned.
“What else?” a big smile appeared on Astaria’s face as she took out a scroll.
Nux grabbed the scroll and started reading.
It was another challenge, this time, the Clan they were facing was the Horizon, its strength was similar to Destruction Clan, with most of its members being a Complete Great Sage, while a few were Semi Saints.
“I am not joining this one either?” Nux questioned helplessly, already knowing the answer.
“You said you will allow us to fight as long as it is the opponent we can handle.”
“…” Nux had nothing to say.
He couldn’t possibly go back against his words, now could he?
He was not a shameless man.
“Have they accepted the challenge yet?” He questioned with a curious look on his face.
Astaria, however, just smiled and,
“We are fighting today, Nux.”
“…what?”
“We challenged them when you passed out,
Mother is working efficiently,” Amaya replied.
“As I would expect from someone like Riona.” A playful smile appeared on Nux’s face. “I think I should give her a visit. You guys will be busy with the battle anyway, won’t you?”
“You won’t be coming with us?”
“Heeh? Are you scared to go without me?” Nux questioned back, how could he forget Astaria’s attempt to tease him, he wanted revenge.
Astaria, however, simply snorted and,
“Scared my foot.”
Saying those words, she simply turned around.
