I Am Really Not The Son of Providence

Chapter 121: This Fortuitous Opportunity is Hard to Get

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Standing on the Saint Mountain, Shen Tian was the sole focus of attention.

All the inner-sect disciples looked at him with passionate eyes, full of awe and respect for their new Saint.

Initially, they thought only Zhang Yunting and Fang Chang were worthy of the Saint position. The previous was a popular choice among the ladies, while the latter was the strongest disciple at the sacred ground.

Yet when compared to Senior Brother Shen Tian...

When it came to appearance and disposition, Senior Brother Yunting lost out; when it came to talent and cultivation levels, Senior Brother Fang also seemed to lose out!

Just look—when Senior Brother Fang tried to challenge Senior Brother Saint, he did not even manage to enter the Saint Mountain. He was simply defeated by the latter’s array formation!

Meanwhile, Senior Brother Yunting was renowned for his gentle temperament, and he had always enjoyed high popularity among the female disciples.

But his popularity with the ladies had suffered a huge blow since Shen Tian’s arrival.

The Sacred Leader then revealed how the new Lightning Explosion Talisman had been completed upon Shen Tian’s instruction. Lots of male disciples turned to become Shen Tian’s fans instead—and all this had happened within this short while.

Coupled with the speech Shen Tian gave about letting all disciples become lions and succeeding in their cultivation routes...

All the hot-blooded youths were now shaking with passion and hope for the future.

Unknowingly, Shen Tian had become the new idol at the sacred ground.

The Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader looked at Shen Tian for a while before speaking. “This is no simple matter. I cannot just decide on this by myself, and I have to call upon a meeting with the other Elders to discuss about this.”

One must understand that although the Sacred Leader was the nominal owner of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, the sacred ground was never a place that allowed a single person to command over all.

Even for the Sacred Leader, he could only command ownership of the place for just 1,000 years—and within that period of time, he had to run the place together with the Elders and Grand Elders.

For matters that deviated from the sacred ground’s ancient teachings, the Sacred Leader would have to call for a formal meeting to discuss with all other authorities. He had no right to just make the decision on his own.

However, it was obvious what the Sacred Leader’s attitude was toward this matter when he announced he would call upon the formal meeting.

This was because currently, only the Sacred Leader, the Saint, and the Saintess had the privileges to learn the Decalamity skill. This practice had allowed them to remain superior over the other Elders and Grand Elders. Should a meeting really be called upon to approve the sharing of this skill, it was almost confirmed that everyone would gladly accept it.

Though one could not predict how things would become in the future, at least for this couple of centuries, this restricted skill would allow the core disciples to tremendously improve their strength.

At the same time, this meant the Sacred Leader’s authority as the owner of the sacred ground might be challenged. The same went for how disciples would view the Saint or the Saintess.

Not every leader could make such decisions unless they were really confident in their abilities.

Nonetheless, the Sacred Leader thought he was such a leader, and naturally, his disciple would be like him too.

Besides, he was never a conservative person. If not, how would he have gone forth to cultivate the Heavenly Dao Sutra?

As such, he decided to go ahead with this reform!

So what if others also learn this highly-revered skill?

I may be your Sacred Leader based on nominal rights, but I can remain at this position with my own strength!

Similarly, my disciple, the Son of Providence, will prove that he is stronger than everybody else too!

At that moment, all disciples looked up in respect at the Sacred Leader, who was levitating in mid-air like a God of Thunder and at Shen Tian, who stood proudly at the peak of the Saint Mountain like a revered immortal.

They were amazed by their dispositions, and it felt like they were witnessing the arrival of a new era.

Meanwhile, Fang Chang clenched his fists and thought to himself, Just wait till I reach the Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage. I will definitely overpower that rascal!

At this moment, a gigantic White Tiger avatar appeared.

Roar!

Its roar seemed to even shake the heavens, sun, and moon.

A slim figure appeared in the distant skies. Donning the White Tiger Clear Light Armor Suit, the girl looked like a Goddess of War as her cape made fleeting sounds against the rushing winds.

Correct, this person was none other than Zhang Yunxi. As she sped toward the Saint Mountain together with her avatar, she bellowed, “Zhang Yunting, Fang Chang, who permitted you to cause a ruckus at the Saint Mountain? How dare you!”

In the blink of an eye, the flustered Zhang Yunxi reached the Saint Mountain.

Only when she saw that the Sacred Leader was there did she calm down slightly and said, “Your daughter pays her greetings to Father.”

The Sacred Leader nodded and commented in an emotionless voice, “You are now at the Golden Core Eight Refinement Stage? Not bad.”

Zhang Yunxi smiled and replied, “It’s all thanks to Junior Brother Shen Tian for finding the forbidden skills, and also allowing me to absorb quite a lot of the Divine Lightning’s Origin.

“If not, I most probably could only reach the Golden Core Eight Refinement Stage after several years of cultivation.”

The ignored Fang Chang took this opportunity to speak. “Junior Sister, congratulations!”

Zhang Yunxi snorted and replied, “First Senior Brother, why did you come here to create all this ruckus?”

Fang Chang couldn’t hide his anger at that comment. “Because Senior Brother heard that Shen Tian bullied you!

“Junior Sister, be rest assured! I have checked the ancient teachings. It only mentioned that the fated person may only marry the Saintess if they are in love with each other!

“Although I do quite like this fellow’s temperament, I will never sit aside and allow him to bully you!”

Shen Tian blinked, and his expression looked odd as he commented, “What, did the ancient teachings really say so?”

Fang Chang snorted. “Of course, so don’t you dare to use the ancient teachings to force Junior Sister!”

While Fang Chang blabbered away, Zhang Yunxi’s face was turning darker and darker.

Meanwhile, Shen Tian heaved a sigh of relief secretly. “Oh! Please, don’t worry. Senior Sister and I don’t have anything between us!”

Fang Chang sneered. “Shen Tian, don’t you dare fool me. I heard Junior Brother Yunfeng say that both Junior Sister and you have already gone through dual cultivation1!

“I am warning you now. I am willing to fight fair with you for Junior Sister. But if you dare to dump her... Even if you are our Saint, I will never acknowledge you. I will beat you up!”

Upon hearing Fang Chang’s absurd claims, Shen Tian felt like he might as well have exploded on the spot.

What, Senior Sister Yunxi and I... doing dual cultivation!?

It’s that fellow called Yunfeng again, is it!?

Where is that rascal!?

I am going to aim 20 Lotus Shooting Guns at him!

One could only imagine—if even Shen Tian was incensed by these comments, needless to mention Zhang Yunxi’s reactions.

She tried her hardest not to look at Shen Tian as she walked toward Fang Chang.

“First Senior Brother, seeing that Yunxi has reached the Golden Core Eight Refinement Stage, do you mind if we exchange a few blows for practice’s sake?”

Fang Chang smiled proudly at that.

“You see that? I am still the first person Junior Sister thinks of when she wants to practice her skills!

“Junior Sister, please be rest assured, I am not a fogey guy. I don’t mind if you are not a virgin anymore.

“I will fight fairly for your love with Shen Tian. If Junior Sister thinks that— Uh-uh-uh!?”

Before Fang Chang could finish his sentence, Zhang Yunxi threw a Silence spell at him.

She forced a smile out and said, “Senior Brother, can you just stop?”

Fang Chang was taken aback. Nevertheless, he still nodded innocently to show his approval and unwavering support for everything Zhang Yunxi did.

Zhang Yunxi finally let out a relieved smile. She turned and looked at the crowd of disciples who had gathered below the mountain.

There was a man donned in green robes and carrying a longsword within the crowd. He was just about to sneak off successfully when Zhang Yunxi called him, “Junior Brother Yunfeng, why are you in a hurry to leave? Why not exchange a few blows with me too?”

Following which, Zhang Yunxi bowed to the Sacred Leader and spoke. “Father, I shall take my leave then.”

The next moment, she dragged Fang Chang and Li Yunfeng along with her as she flew off on her sword and disappeared as fast as she first appeared at the Saint Mountain.

All this while, Shen Tian did not know what he ought to make of the situation.

Senior Sister sure did come and leave pretty fast.

And even if she left, why must she drag Junior Brother Fang away?

I am still trying to make peace with him and convince him to come on an experiential journey with me!

That’s right! The reason Shen Tian wanted to get Fang Chang to go on an experiential journey with him was that Fang Chang had a gold halo on top of his head.

While it was not as bright as what Zhang Yunxi had, it was still glistening away in the sunlight.

Personally, Shen Tian would rather interpret this as a typical case of what’s meant by ‘fortune favors fools’.

No matter what—the important thing was that Shen Tian had seen an image above Fang Chang’s halo when the latter was mercilessly subjected to that exciting ‘bondage’ treatment in front of the Saint Mountain.

It seemed like the First Senior Brother of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground would soon meet some great fortuitous opportunity.

Remember, the last time Shen Tian spotted the fortuitous opportunity on top of Zhang Yunxi’s golden halo, she had managed to recover the Drager Pendant.

It was precisely because of that incident that Shen Tian had been able to turn his white-flecked-with-black-spots halo to the lush green halo he wore now.

As such, how could Shen Tian miss on such a fortuitous opportunity?

However, Shen Tian was quite worried that if he invited Fang Chang to go on a training journey with him, that simple-minded bloke might butcher him for the sake of his beloved Zhang Yunxi—though it was just an unrequited love on his side.

While chances of him getting successful with that idea are minimal, you can’t rule this out totally!

Shen Tian was thrown into a dilemma then.

Sigh... This fortuitous opportunity is hard to get!
