Chapter 275 - Plan (1/2)
In an inn somewhere in the City just beneath the True Devil Academy was a man writing a simple letter. The letter contained words that go, ”The plan is proceeding nicely, we will be able to get them to join us if I am to continue with this.”
The man then folded the paper and had it be carried by a Jinx Sparrow to be carried to the destination he wants it to go to. The man then stood up and a man appeared out of nowhere to kneel before him on one knee.
The just-arrived man lowered his head and began making the report, ”An envoy had come to the Gates of the Academy, Master Xie San (Three).”
Xie San turned around and nodded his head before commenting, ”They have finally opened their gates for me. It is earlier than what I had anticipated but they must be feeling the pressure of the Son of Heaven so they moved so quickly.”
Xie San, the third disciple of Master Black had been in the city run by the True Devil Academy for the past two years trying to negotiate with them. He had been wanting to pull the academy to the side of the Xie Clan but the results were all the same.
Only now did the True Devil Academy had showed interest that they began to make their moves, [The Devil's Cavern will be explored by Senior Xie Er and Xie Si, I need to finish this so I can meet with them and find the Devil's Horns faster.]
He moved out of the inn and hurried along to the Gates of the True Devil Academy to meet Elder/Envoy they sent out to meet with him. He saw the envoy standing in a dignified manner and then smiled, [They finally crack.]
The one in front of them was the infamous Grand Elder Cishan (Benevolent). He was one of the few Devil cultivators who practice it for the sake of enlightenment. Many forms of practice had been created in honor of the Devil Arts since long ago, but for the past hundred thousand years did the Tradition of the Devil Path started.
Grand Elder Cishan was a practitioner of the said path. Xie San head up the mountain where the True Devil Academy on foot to show his courtesy and when he got to the top and met with Grand Elder Cishan face to face, he lowered his head and then said.
”I have been waiting. Did the Academy finally accept my Xie Clan's offer? We promise and swear upon the True Devil name that we will not betray the trust of the Academy and we will grant you a place when the Xie Clan rules the world.”
Grand Elder Cishan turned to him and then said nothing. He snorted at Xie San and commented, ”What are you doing here, arrogant Xie Clan messenger? We have warned you about going up the mountain three times, do you wish to die?”
Grand Elder Cishan said in an angered voice. He had been irritated at Xie San for the past few years now because he was too persistent on making the True Devil Academy walk the wrong path of Divinity.
He did not like seeing Xie San, he creased his brows and hen shooed him away saying, ”The True Devil Academy is an Academy meant for the pursuit of the Devil path amidst the beauty and harmony of this world. Devils exist only to give out challenges not to make people suffer and the plans of your Clan, it will surely doom many people.”
Grand Elder Cishan said in disgust he went ahead and ignored Xie San who had been feeling confused about what truly is happening. Xie San processed everything and then finally understood his words, he blurted out saying, ”Do not be prideful Grand Elder Cishan, just let me in and let me talk to the Headmaster already. There is no one else who will enter the academy so you are just wasting your time.”
