Eternal Sacred King - Chapter 2693
2693 Mastermind
“That’s right.”
The Sect Master of the Academy nodded slightly with a satisfied expression. “If not for the fact that you have the Green Lotus bloodline, you would indeed be a suitable candidate to inherit my legacy.”
The Master Betrayal Curse was planted on the Teleportation Jade Badge.
During the Immortal Peach Banquet in the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain, Su Zimo made use of the Teleportation Jade Badge to escape with Tao Yao and return to Heaven and Earth Academy in the midst of chaos.
The power of the Master Betrayal Curse latched itself onto Su Zimo at the same time as the Teleportation Jade Badge shattered.
The Sect Master of the Academy had everything planned out.
The Teleportation Jade Badge was his last life-saving method.
When Su Zimo shattered the Teleportation Jade Badge, he would definitely be in a huge life and death crisis.
At that juncture, Su Zimo’s attention would definitely not be on the Teleportation Jade Badge.
That was the reason why the Master Betrayal Curse could hide from Su Zimo’s senses and be planted on him silently!
“Therefore, with this curse, you can sense my location?”
Su Zimo asked.
“Of course.”
The Sect Master of the Academy said, “You’re under my surveillance at all times. Apart from the time you headed to Avici.”
“However, I know that you have the Hell Suppression Tripod with you and won’t be in any danger even in Greater Avici.”
“Therefore, you knew long ago that it was not my Green Lotus True Body who returned to Heaven and Earth Academy?” Su Zimo asked again.
At the mention of that, the Sect Master of the Academy smiled in disdain and shook his head. “In my eyes, the tricks of you and Ling Long are amateur plays.”
At that moment, Su Zimo had gradually calmed down.
Suddenly, he thought of something. “King Yun You and the others saw the destruction of my clone. Now that you’re here to hunt me, aren’t you afraid that they’ll be the ones hunting you right behind?”
“They lack the foresight to be able to hunt me.”
The Sect Master of the Academy smiled gently. “At this moment, they’re joining forces to attack the Battle Kingdom and fighting against Lin Zhan and Immortal Queen Ling Long. They have no time to spare.”
“Hmm?”
Su Zimo’s expression changed.
The reason why he chose to leave the Battle Kingdom was because he did not want to implicate the Human Monarch and Immortal Queen Ling Long. Unexpectedly, he still implicated the two of them.
As though he could tell Su Zimo’s worry, the Sect Master of the Academy waved his hand gently. “Don’t worry, most of Lin Zhan’s injuries have suddenly recovered. King Yun You and the others won’t be able to suppress him for the time being.”
Su Zimo was slightly relieved. However, he could not accept it for the time being. “How can King Yun You and the others be manipulated by you and attack the Battle Kingdom without any doubts?”
“Of course.”
The Sect Master of the Academy smiled. “That’s because I’m with them in the Battle Kingdom.”
Su Zimo was stunned.
The Sect Master of the Academy’s words seemed to reveal a huge piece of information that Su Zimo could not react to right away.
The Sect Master of the Academy looked at Su Zimo and shook his head gently. “You, Immortal Queen Ling Long and King Yun You’s group. All of you think you’re playing a game of chess with me. However, in my eyes, none of you are qualified.”
“That’s because I was the one who set up the entire chess game from the beginning to the end. All of you are merely my chess pieces!”
“You must have some self-awareness as a chess piece. How can a chess piece go against the mastermind of the game?”
The Sect Master of the Academy’s tone revealed immense confidence.
It was a feeling of being in control of the entire situation and being high and mighty.
He was indeed capable of this and relished this feeling immensely.
He was high and mighty as he looked at the chess game he had set up, smiling knowingly as he looked at his chess pieces execute seemingly exquisite moves.
“Let’s start from the beginning.”
The Sect Master of the Academy smiled faintly. “King Yun You looked for me and asked me to divine the time and location of your ascension. Thereafter, he intercepted to try and kill you but Immortal Queen Ling Long appeared.”
“You’ve already met Immortal Queen Ling Long. You should know that she received a letter.”
Su Zimo nodded. “You should be the one who wrote that letter.”
“That’s right.”
The Sect Master of the Academy said, “The Creation Green Lotus is of great importance and involves ancient Dharmic sutras such as the Yin Yang Talisman Sutra. There aren’t many people in the upper world who know the potential of the Creation Green Lotus. Immortal Queen Ling Long and I are two of them.”
“I naturally won’t allow King Yun You to refine it into a pill when you’ve just grown to Grade 9. That would be a waste of this divine gift from the heavens.”
“Furthermore, I don’t want to share the Creation Green Lotus with others either.”
Su Zimo understood.
That was the reason why the Sect Master of the Academy sent a secret letter to Immortal Queen Ling Long and asked her to take action.
The Sect Master of the Academy said, “You should have a question in your heart. Why did Elder Eight head over with King Yun You to intercept you, right?”
Su Zimo was silent.
That was indeed one of his doubts.
Since the Sect Master of the Academy did not want to share the Creation Green Lotus with others, why did he send Elder Eight to head over with King Yun You?
That was unless Elder Eight and the Sect Master of the Academy were…
Suddenly, Su Zimo thought of a possibility that explained many questions lingering in his mind!
“Elder Eight is your clone!”
Su Zimo blurted out.
“You’re indeed very smart.”
The Sect Master of the Academy praised once more and added, “To be precise, the real Elder Eight is already dead. The current Elder Eight is my clone.”
Su Zimo thought of something else. “At that time, the Jade Pure Jade Manual had yet to appear and the Grand Pure Jade Manual was in the hands of Prince Qin Ce. However, it was always a secret as to who obtained the Supreme Pure Jade Manual.”
“From the looks of it, the Supreme Pure Jade Manual is in your hands!”
The Sect Master of the Academy had an approving expression and gestured for Su Zimo to continue.
Su Zimo said, “After obtaining the Qimen Dunjia legacy of the Technique Reserve and using the clone condensed from the Supreme Pure Jade Manual, you can naturally deceive everyone.”
“Elder Eight is in charge of the academy’s divine weapons and the clone condensed by the Supreme Pure Jade Manual is called the Spirit Treasure Body. It’s the best replacement.”
“Well done.”
When he heard that, the Sect Master of the Academy clapped and laughed, praising.
As such, another matter was instantly understood.
At that time, during the Immortal Sect Selection, Painting Immortal Mo Qing was entrusted by Elder Eight to arrive in time. Su Zimo was still puzzled as to what role Elder Eight played in this.
From the looks of it, the Sect Master of the Academy had only been manipulating everything from the beginning!
He made use of his Elder Eight clone to hide himself perfectly!
Suddenly!
Su Zimo recalled something else and stared at the Sect Master of the Academy not far away, asking slowly, “At the Nine Firmament Meet, Qin Ce was killed by Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain and his Grand Pure Jade Manual fell into the hands of Immortal King Long Night.”
“As for Immortal King Long Night, he tore through the void and was about to escape when he was suddenly assassinated. The Grand Pure Jade Manual disappeared as well.”
“If I’m not wrong, you were the one who assassinated Immortal King Long Night. The Grand Pure Jade Manual should be in your hands now!”
“That’s right.”
The Sect Master of the Academy had a calm expression and had no intention of hiding anything.
Everything was within his control and before long, Su Zimo would be a dead man as well.
