Chapter 129 Crossing the River and Destroying the Bridge, Using Someone Else to Kill: Tang San's Vicious Scheme!
And after hearing Tang San's summons...
The two great deities, the God of Fairies and the God of Immortality, naturally dared not delay.
Although they were high and mighty gods in the eyes of mortals, to Tang San they were merely his two subordinates. Naturally, they treated his words with the utmost respect.
Therefore, they quickly headed towards Tang San's God King Palace. Upon arriving at the palace gates, they knelt down skillfully and asked Tang San, who sat on the God King's throne:
"We've arrived, Lord Tang San."
"Excuse me, is there anything you need us to do?"
Tang San was very satisfied with the attitudes of the two great gods, the God of Demons and the God of Immortality.
After hearing their words, Tang San smiled smugly and cut straight to the point, asking, "How's the task I asked you to do last time going?"
Upon hearing this, the Fairy God and the Immortal God quickly replied, "As you requested, we have already contacted Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao on the Douluo Continent and established relations with them."
"These two are relatively easy to control. As for Long Xiaoyao, he seems to have some unnecessary bottom lines when doing things. But he's a love-struck person and values Ye Xishui's thoughts extremely. So he's willing to do anything Ye Xishui wants to do."
"Moreover, after learning that Ye Xishui had been chosen by us and might become a god with eternal life, he became somewhat restless. It seems that he also wanted to obtain eternal life so that he could stay by Ye Xishui's side."
"So we have these two under control right now, and we've already started issuing them divine test tasks. Of course, as you said, Lord Tang, we've only set up a small part of the divine test."
The Fairy God and the Immortal God told Tang San everything about Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao.
This made Tang San's smile grow even wider.
He smiled and praised, "Yes, well done!"
"Of all the gods who work under my command, you two are the ones I feel most at ease with."
The Fairy God and the Immortal God were flattered upon hearing this.
The immortal god hesitated and stammered.
Seeing this, Tang San said directly, "Just say what you have to say. Why are you beating around the bush?"
The Undying God asked Tang San, "Lord Tang, I don't understand. Do you really want them to become gods and take our place? What will we do after we give them the godhood?"
Tang San laughed heartily upon hearing this: "I thought you guys could really hold back from asking!"
The God of Immortality and the God of Fairies looked embarrassed. It wasn't that they didn't want to know, but they didn't dare to ask. After all, Tang San was a high and mighty God King, and he wouldn't tolerate their questioning of his actions.
So even though they had been very worried and confused about this before, they had never dared to ask.
Now that Tang San had given them a way out, they naturally asked the question.
Tang San quickly replied to them, "Don't worry! Those two are just pawns."
"How could I possibly abandon my two generals for the sake of two chess pieces?"
The God of Immortality and the God of Fairies looked puzzled.
Tang San continued, "In the end, my real goal is nothing more than to use someone else to do my dirty work."
"I want to use them to get rid of Liu Yuan."
"In this way, the chosen one will naturally resent Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao."
"But from the perspective of the Chosen One, these two are far too strong, so it is time for this God-King to take action."
"I, the God-King, will appear when he is most disheartened and most eager for revenge, and help him complete his vengeance."
"In this way, when he successfully takes his revenge, he will naturally be extremely grateful to me, the God-King, for being able to become a blade in my hand."
"As for Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao, they are merely whetstones for the chosen one. Once Liu Yuan is killed, they will be useless. At that time, you will no longer need to administer the divine test content to them."
"As long as the divine test is not yet completed, there is no need for a change of divine position. And what you are doing is not against the rules! After all, the succession of divine positions is supposed to be a very serious matter, so it is understandable that you take more time to observe him!"
"But you yourselves didn't expect that the two of them would be killed by the Chosen One during this process. You can only blame their lack of skill; you can't blame anyone else!"
Since the Immortal God and the Fairy God are the executors of this mission, Tang San now reveals his entire plan.
After hearing Tang San's plan, even the God of Immortality and the God of Fairies couldn't help but feel a surge of shock in their hearts.
What a ruthless plan!
As expected of Tang San!
They really know how to play the "crossing the river and then dismantling the bridge" trick!
However, they did not show the slightest doubt about Tang San.
The two deities were well aware of their own status, so after hearing Tang San's words, they could only start flattering him again.
"As expected of Lord Tang San, he is indeed resourceful and wise!"
Tang San became happier and happier as he listened.
He then directly instructed the God of Immortality and the God of Fairies to do as he said.
And the immortal god and the fairy god were indeed very obedient.
They quickly left the God King's Palace where Tang San was, and then used their unique methods to contact Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao in the Holy Spirit Cult.
They issued tasks to Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao in accordance with Tang San's instructions.
After receiving the mission, both Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao were somewhat surprised by how peculiar the mission of the Divine Trial was.
But they did not refuse.
After all, both Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao had blood on their hands.
Perhaps it wasn't Long Xiaoyao's original intention to become like this, but it's undeniable that he did kill quite a few people for Ye Xishui and the Holy Spirit Cult.
So even if the tasks issued by the Fairy God and the Immortal God were absurd and ruthless, they felt quite familiar with them because they had done this kind of thing many times before.
"Divine throne! Eternal life! We have come!"
Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao immediately set off to prepare for the mission issued by the Fairy God and the Immortal God.
Meanwhile, Liu Yuan's students, who had left the Sun and Moon Royal Academy, had already returned to their respective homes.
