Chapter 11: Time for a Twist

"Well, those three are planning something, indeed, sir."

"I knew it!"

"Tell me what it is!"

Gulp!

"It seems they are planning an incident, sir. I heard them talking about a Giant Earth King... I don't know what they want, but when this thousand-year-old scorpion appears, that will be the signal to their action."

"A spirit beast?" The two men looked at each other, shocked to discover that those three wanted to involve even beasts in their plans.

'That makes sense! Beasts are uncontrollable, and when a group of them appear among us, chaos will spread, creating opportunities!' The middle-aged man's eyes sharpened in concern.

The other outlaw then pondered. 'One of those two participated in the capture of this brat. From what I heard, Giant Earth Kings were involved in the situation...'

The two then listened. "But sir, I just fear that more people are involved with them."

"What?"

"Once, I heard them mutter, 'he,' as someone who gives them orders..."

"That..." The two looked at each other, now feeling anxious about a fourth mysterious person in this situation.

"I just hope you can deal with them as soon as possible, or I fear the worst will happen... Those people are completely insane. To deal with fellow humans, who would get involved with wild spirit beasts?"

"I'm afraid everyone here will come to harm because of them."

"What do we do?" The middle-aged man asked his companion.

"Let's go and see our trusted companions. Let's act before the other side makes its move!"

Cheng Tian heard that and smiled, already beginning to look forward to the chaos that would soon be upon this group.

...

Another day passed, and at this point, Cheng Tian's group was almost out of Star Dou Great Forest.

However, before that happened, that young man had already tricked another outlaw. Not only that, but he also warned Gou He and the two men who were keeping an eye on this pot-bellied fellow that the two men from the previous day were planning to release a Giant Earth King to signal the start of a revolt.

According to Cheng Tian, there were at least three factions within this group, and two were planning to act in the next few hours. Because of this, they could not talk to many people about what was about to happen while they had to prepare for the worst.

Apparently, one of the group members had found an External Spirit Bone, and the previously cordial factions in that group had started to get agitated.

With this, soon, the tension in that group was reaching its peak, with many of them who had not even talked to Cheng Tian already certain that some treachery was unfolding.

Even the group leader had begun to rally those most trusted to his side since he indeed had an External Spirit Bone!

How had Cheng Tian discovered something that only that man knew? Well, that was naturally due to the Sharingan.

On the second day in that cell, Cheng Tian had seen the leader of this group from afar and had noticed a strange chakra flow in that person's right index finger.

Because of his knowledge of spirit bones, he had correctly guessed that this was an External Spirit Bone.

Thus he had given more credibility to his manipulations, putting oil on the fire that was the unreliable minds of the people in that group!

...

"It's time to escape!" Cheng Tian said in a low voice to the four people in that cell, with a deadly serious look on his face.

"Young Madara, how..."

"How are we going to do that? Do you think these people will just kill themselves?" Xiao Yang asked while showing the chains on his body to Cheng Tian. "Only they can free us from these damned chains."

"I have a way to free us from those chains." He said calmly. "But I need you to do something for me..."

"What?" The woman asked, now without the thoughtful tone of days ago, afraid that Cheng Tian would plot against her.

Cheng Tian then said. "Nothing much. You just run away without looking back and forget that you saw me here."

"Can you make a vow about that?"

"That..."

'This young man wants to hide information about himself... But we have seen almost nothing, other than his plots.' The man who spoke the most of those four thought about it, but since that was no big deal, he soon agreed.

"Goddess of Ice, testify..."

"God of Angels, testify..."

Each of them made their oath, using the Gods they believed in to ensure that they would not go back on their words.

After listening calmly to each of their vows, Cheng Tian finally acted.

He had already realized that although his martial soul was constrained, his techniques from Madara were not. So he simply stood up and made a set of hand seals.

Wood Style: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees!

Immediately after this, roots began to grow on the sides of that cell, quickly beginning to expand, bending those bars as if they were made of paper.

"That..."

"What is that?"

"How can that be? Isn't his martial soul sealed?" So those four held on to some bars, feeling that cell was rising into the air with the roots of Cheng Tian's technique.

But Cheng Tian did not stop there. He knew this would draw the attention of the criminals in the surrounding area, so he immediately followed his plans for those people.

Summoning Technique: Giant Earth King!

He bent down into the middle of that half-ruined cell, and several inscriptions appeared below him before mist appeared there, along with a giant red scorpion.

The already surprised eyes of those four cellmates of Cheng Tian's nearly bulged out of their faces when they magically saw that spirit beast appear there.

Gulp!

"Madara..."

"Bring one of those people to me!" Cheng Tian ordered that creature, pointing in the direction of the outlaws already in the vicinity, looking at what had caused the commotion earlier.

Then that scorpion leaped toward Cheng Tian's enemy humans, alerting all those manipulated by that human of the signal they had all already been preparing.

"Giant Earth King!"

"Damn it!"

"Attack!"

"Ahh! Kill!"

"Kill them and bring the External Spirit Bone to us!"

Shouts broke out among the group with 17 people, the weakest at level 35 and the strongest at level 41.

Then, in that instant, Gou He, those others manipulated by Cheng Tian, and even the leader of that group began to fight with everything they had, confident that this was the only way they could survive the madness of their comrades.

'Damn it, damn Gou He! Did you truly set all this up to steal my External Spirit Bone? You bastard! I'll kill you!' The group's leader ran towards the pot-bellied man, full of killing intent.

Seeing the person he respected so much until days ago coming towards him, Gou He felt panic in his heart but also felt anger at having been tricked into respecting that man.

"Hell!"

'Even the boss is planning my death? What have I done to deserve this?' His eyes grew watery, but his group soon started their move, forming a chaotic battle in that forested area.

As each side manipulated by Cheng Tian fought with everything they had, putting all their emotions into their fights, those not manipulated felt even more anger at the traitors. With that, the other side attacked with even more power, seeking to take the lives of these troublesome individuals.

"Die to me, Hou Jian!"

"Mad Dog, I always knew you would betray us!"

"Uh? Betray? You are the one who is betraying us by plotting against us! Watch as I take your life!"

Several spirit rings flashed in the surroundings as the beast summoned by Cheng Tian joined the confrontation, quickly escalating the severity of the confrontation.

But after capturing one of the weaker criminals, it made several evasive moves, heading back towards Cheng Tian with its prey.

Meanwhile, Cheng Tian saw that his victim was on his way and simply looked at the four people beside him. "What are you waiting for? Do you intend to stay here and break your vows?"

"What?" One of them said unconsciously, realizing that the chains holding him down had already fallen off, and he was free.

With that, he looked again at Cheng Tian, startled that such a person had come his way. "Thank you for your help, brother Madara. Now I'll be on my way."

Soon after, the other people left in a hurry, with old man Xiao Yang being the last to leave, having looked for a few moments at that young man before disappearing over the horizon.

'After days since my first time, I think I'm more than ready to do that again.' Cheng Tian's eyes brightly shone when he saw the man in agony, trapped in that creature's mouth.

When that beast came to his side, Cheng Tian quickly grabbed that man by his neck and moved on with his unique ability.

'I'm almost out of energy because of the previous two techniques. But, on the other hand, my current level is higher than when I killed Lin Long.'

'Then I will be able to absorb more power than before!' He tightened his hand around the neck of that level 35 man.
