Poison God's Heritage

Chapter 904 Battle of Words

"Alright pack it up!" several cultivators were running around cleaning up the aftermath.

The damage to the sect was pretty heavy, but all it took was a couple of days to have everything done and dusted. The buildings and cultivator houses and several other places for learning and training including the arenas and the botanic spirit herb gardens were all being cleaned up.

"This should be good for the Confederation," Tonfa said.

"No, you're being greedy there," I replied as I was waiting for my bracelet to answer.

"What do you mean?" Tonfa asked me. "The whole sect is cleaned up, I mean we killed every one of them even the ones who hid underground, I personally scanned the whole place. Though I still wonder why did you send out all of your puppets outside the sect..."

Suddenly my bracelet lit up, "It was for this reason," I said as I opened the channel.

"Three rakshasa have been found, they have been eliminated, the search party has cleared the area... the planet is safe," the automated voice of a puppet answered back.

"Wait, how did they escape?" Tonfa said shock clear in his eyes.

"That's what they do, they fake you out, they pull a massive smokescreen like this fight and hide a few of their members away, they run from the battle and hide to infect others and grow in number. They sacrificed the greater number for the few to run, only for an even more astronomical number of them to come back at you years later from today," I said.

Tonfa thought for a second and said, "I really do owe you much."

"It's fine, they're enemies of humanity and the heavens, they had to be taken care of eventually."

Later that day, Don Ma came down with several other cultivators, including Elder Wudong, the man who seemed adamant on hating me for no reason.

"Humph," he scorned, "You got done in by something like this Elder Tonfa, you grew weak," he said.

"I will not be taking that from you Wudong, you didn't assist us in anything."

I handed him the documents as I said, "Seems like our friend here Wudong has been secretly investing in Xuan Fei... and these documents prove it... so you could say that the reason all this happened was because of Wudong's interference." I said

Don Ma's eyes widened as he read the documents and Tonfa seeing Don Ma's surprise had his suspicions confirmed, "You filthy bastard!"

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! WHAT DEALINGS! All I supported Xuan Fei with was funds for his research on the Broodmother because you were too stingy in doing so! How does that equate to you losing your control over samples and having your rakshasa spread havoc on the sacred soil of this sect!"

"Did he not receive the full meme?" I frowned.

"No, the details about the whole thing were omitted, only the general story was told to us, that the Golden Dawn sect had been attacked by mutated rakshasa, and we believe they came from the research lab..."

"What's going on?" Wudong said as both me and Tonfa looked at him with disgusted looks.

"The person who caused all this fuckery is Xuan Fei, the very person you funded. He embezzled the funds from the Golden Dawn Sect and used your additional funds to create a secret lab hidden under the sect, the documents prove your interaction, though it doesn't paint you as an accomplice due to lack of evidence, you still had indirectly supported this whole mess..." I said.

"Nonsense! You're trying to frame me! Who would believe this!"

"The documents don't lie, this is your seal of approval," Don Ma said, "You will be under investigation by the elder council, do not make this difficult for us..." Don Ma said as he placed his hand on his sword pummel.

Wudong's face contorted into an enraged version of himself, but sadly he took a deep breath and didn't act on it.

Unfortunate.

"Fine, investigate all you want, I have nothing to hide..."

Damn I couldn't agitate him enough but it's fine at least he won't be yapping in front of us anytime soon.

As for me, it's time for me to head back to Solarous.
