I Can Track Everything Chapter 298 - Wishful Thinking On My Part

Chapter 298 - Wishful Thinking On My Part

"I've asked Chen Chen to return to Wufeng City."

Somewhere in the Western Border, the gray-haired, broody-looking Grand Elder of the Void Spirit Clan, Wu Ling suddenly received a message.

When he saw the message, Wu Ling stayed silent for a moment before asking, "Master, what should I do then? Escape to Wufeng City? My situation now is not optimistic. If I can't capture Chen Chen and make him a hostage, it's basically impossible for me to escape from the human border."

"You don't have to, just stay in the human border for two more days. Chen Chen is extremely cunning and very loyal to the human race. If I'm not wrong, he definitely isn't in Wufeng City right now, and maybe, he will even go give the upper echelons of the human race a hint and ask them to ambush you near Wufeng City or hinder you."

"So, after a day or two, fly directly to the opposite direction of Wufeng City where the protection should be the weakest. I will personally meet you then."

Seeing the message, Wu Ling resented Chen Chen so much that he couldn't help but ask, "Daoist Master, since you know that Chen Chen is unreliable and will even endanger he Heavenly Diabolism, why are you tolerating him?"

"Because there are still things that I need to use him for. You don't need to bother about the rest."

"Yes, Sect Master! No matter what, I'll be at ease with you handling it in person."

...

The Heavenly Diabolism Master, who was far away in the demon border and couldn't help but sneer.

Ever since Chen Chen said those words at the Northern Border the other time, she knew that Chen Chen would never betray the interests of the human race.

'If Chen Chen doesn't get up to any tricks after I've just told him such an important matter this time, pigs will fly!'

She decided to leverage on that point, precisely because she noticed it.

As long as Chen Chen revealed false information to the echelons of the human race, the probability of Wu Ling escaping from the human border would be increased greatly.

"Hmph, you're always treating others like fools, but little do you know that there's someone better than you! Do you think you can hide those thoughts of yours from me? You're being so naive!"

The Heavenly Diabolism master snorted coldly and flew towards the human border.

...

At the same time, Chen Chen had already obediently returned to Wufeng City.

At this moment, he was feeling extremely conflicted.

'Should I hint the higher-ups of the human race about that Void Refinement realm half-demon?'

To be honest, he was still a bit scared of the Heavenly Diabolism master. If he hinted at the humans, the Heavenly Diabolism master would definitely deal with him.

There was another issue that he had to face.

Now, Xia Xishuang had already reached the most critical moment of her cultivation in reclusion, and she might face the tribulation in a day or two to break through to the Essence Soul realm. If a battle of the Void Refinement realm level occurred in the vicinity of Wufeng City, Xia Xishuang might be disturbed.

He was afraid that Xia Xishuang might be affected by the battle when she was about to go through the tribulation, and the consequences would be unthinkable then.

Xia Xishuang was now in seclusion, so he didn't dare to disturb her. Thus, he was in a dilemma, and at the same time, he was emotional about the difficulties faced by cultivators of the world.

Even Xia Xishuang who had an innate spirit body would have to stay in seclusion for a long time during the critical juncture.

Unlike her, he would need at most a day or two of seclusion to digest the treasures before breaking through. The only thing he had to pay attention to was the Thunder Tribulation.

'Ugh, I must not let the battle take place near the Wufeng City!'

After Chen Chen made up his mind, he contacted the Heavenly Diabolism Master.

"Sect Master, I don't think it's a good idea to let me stay in Wufeng City."

"Oh? Do you have other ideas?" the Heavenly Diabolism master soon asked from the communication token.

"Sect Master, I have some treasures, and if I really want to use them, even a Void Refinement realm expert won't be able to do anything to me. When that Lord comes to Wufeng City, do I use them in public or not? If I don't, it won't arouse suspicion, but if I do, and that Lord wants to quickly take me as a hostage, I'm afraid there will be some difficulties."

Chen Chen said earnestly.

The Heavenly Diabolism master immediately replied, "What do you think we should do then?"

"How about I go to a place 250 kilometers west of Wufeng City, pretend to spy on them to get some information, and meet that lord by coincidence? There is no one around there, that lord would have no problem catching me directly. What do you think?"

There was a long silence before the Heavenly Diabolism master answered.

"Yes, go immediately now!"

"Yes!"

Putting away the communication token, Chen Chen channeled his divine senses into the Realm Control Pearl to set up the secret realm.

As for traveling 250 kilometers to the west of Wufeng City? No, he decided to bail on the Void Refinement realm half-demon.

...

Some time pa.s.sed.

Chen Chen hummed a little tune while cleaning up some of the excess legacies in the secret realm.

After all, he was going to hold prisoners there. Although the legacy was not worth much, he decided that he mustn't give those prisoners an advantage.

Seeing that it was about to be late at night, the Heavenly Diabolism master's communication token suddenly lit up.

"Chen Chen, where are you!?"

The words that came from the communication token were condensed by spiritual energy, but Chen Chen could feel the full fury of the Heavenly Diabolism master.

Chen Chen looked around at the walls of Wufeng City and said with conviction, "Sect Master, I'm at the location we agreed upon. Could it be that that lord has gone to the wrong place?"

"You didn't reveal that location to the other Void Refinement realm cultivators of the human race?"

Chen Chen was shocked to see that question but cold sweat soon seeped out of his forehead.

'What does this Heavenly Diabolism master mean?'

'Does she think I would reveal the information to the human Void Refinement realm cultivators?'

When he thought of this, a chill ran through his heart. 'Seems like this Heavenly Diabolism master is prejudging my moves.'

'Fortunately, I did not give false information to the human Void Refinement realm cultivators. Otherwise, if I had really misled them and let the Void Refinement realm half-demon escape, I won't be able to explain.'

'This demoness is really scheming!'

'Psht!'

Chen Chen spat some saliva and retorted, "Sect Master, you must be joking, I'm not that kind of person. Since I've joined the Heavenly Diabolism, I will never harm the organization, although I didn't contribute much. I didn't expect that you would have so little trust in me..."

In fact, he did have the idea of hinting to the upper echelons of the human race, but after thinking about it, he chickened out. After all, the Heavenly Diabolism master was not to be provoked.

More importantly, he believed that since the mighty figures of the human race had decided to get rid of the demons, they were probably capable of conquering the Void Refinement realm half-demon.

Even if he hinted them a little, it would just be the icing on the cake.

In that case, why would he risk angering the Heavenly Diabolism master?

To his surprise, he had saved himself by coincidence.

'Indeed, it's better to be a coward, or I might fall into the trap of others.'

...

On the other hand,

Wu Ling looked at the red-robed Heavenly Diabolism master in front of him, and his face turned slightly pale.

"Sect Master, where is Chen Chen?"

"He said that he's at the place you guys agreed to meet at."

The Heavenly Diabolism Master gritted her teeth, not expecting Chen Chen to be so honest and obedient.

She had led Wu Ling towards the place where they agreed to meet. Yet, she was now being surrounded.

"Impossible! Why did he do that!?"

The more the Heavenly Diabolism Master thought about it, the more she couldn't believe it.

Previously, Chen Chen had even suggested that she switch the location, which was strange because Chen Chen wasn't usually that kind.

Hence, she had basically concluded in her heart that Chen Chen had some tricks up his sleeve!

However, she now realized that she had been reading too much into things.

It was normal for one to be unable to get used to a disobedient person suddenly becoming compliant.

After a moment of contemplation, the Heavenly Diabolism master seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but curse softly, "Chen Chen! Am I that scary? I thought you were a man of great righteousness, but I never thought you were a coward!"

Wu Ling, who was at the side, looked at the Heavenly Diabolism master like she was a fool.

Previously, he thought that the Heavenly Diabolism Master was wise and resourceful enough to have plotted against Chen Chen and taken advantage of him thoroughly.

Now, it seemed that this Heavenly Diabolism Master was really smart and had brought him to the most dangerous place.

'What a d.a.m.ned fool. What is she thinking?'

Seemingly having discovered Wu Ling's gaze, the Heavenly Diabolism master immediately felt furious and ashamed. She questioned coldly, "What's with that look in your eyes? Since I said I'd take you away, I'll keep to my word and do just that!"

After saying that, a trace of menace appeared in the Heavenly Diabolism master's eyes, and she vomited a mouthful of golden-red blood. She then turned around to look at the void behind her.

There were three human Void Refinement realm cultivators looking at them calmly.
