Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up-Chapter 291 - 193: Striking It Rich!
The male protagonist didn’t wonder for long.
Because Su Qianqian woke up.
To be precise, it wasn’t Su Qianqian who woke up, but another acquaintance of the protagonist.
The Sage of Time sat up, looked down at the new body, and nodded in satisfaction.
For someone like the Sage of Time, who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, the difference between men and women has long been insignificant, nor is there any desire between the sexes.
The only things that can stir their heart are the ever-ascending realms and the unfathomable future.
After inspecting the body, the Sage of Time looked up at the protagonist, nodded slightly, and said:
"Messenger, we meet again."
The protagonist’s face changed dramatically.
He glared at the Sage of Time, brimming with killing intent, and said, "So you’re really not dead!"
The Sage of Time smiled and nodded: "I remember telling you before that undead mages have the strongest survival ability among all magic systems."
After speaking, he continued with a slightly apologetic tone: "I’m sorry for borrowing your lover’s body. I know you care a lot about this body, but don’t worry, as soon as I find the Ancient Secret Treasure, I promise to return it to you intact."
The protagonist looked grim: "Didn’t you say there were no other residual souls, when did you invade this body?"
The Sage of Time nodded: "I did not lie; there were indeed no other residual souls. However, I didn’t say I couldn’t separate a thread of soul from the residual soul. At that time, your divine sense was wrapped by my divine soul and couldn’t perceive the outside world. That’s when I took the opportunity to separate a soul."
After finishing, the Sage of Time added, "Speaking of which, you should thank me."
"This body was infected with corpse poison. If it weren’t for me, she might have died already."
"After I entered this body, I discovered there was still a lingering consciousness, so I took the opportunity to repair and reshape her divine soul."
"That woman is lucky to have met me. No other magic system has studied the soul as thoroughly as the undead mages."
After the Sage of Time finished, he looked earnestly at the protagonist, smiling, and said, "Messenger, I have shown my sincerity. Shall we cooperate? As long as you help me find the Ancient Secret Treasure, I will not only return this body to you but also offer you great fortune."
The protagonist didn’t answer, but instead, he said with a sullen face: "You used your divine soul to surround me, not to trap me but to buy time? Your goal was never to kill me outright. From the beginning, you’ve had plans to use those around me to threaten me? Such a cunning strategy!"
The Sage of Time shook his head: "At first, I did intend to kill you and then search your soul, but who would have thought you suddenly broke through to the Fighting God realm? My residual soul isn’t strong enough to threaten a Fighting God, so I had to change tactics."
After saying this, the Sage of Time smiled and said, "According to how you cultivators say it, this might be a hint from the heavens. I was just worrying about what to do when I saw you staring at this panicked woman in the poisonous gas, so I simply went with the flow."
He looked at the protagonist earnestly and said, "You are chosen by me as the Messenger, whether you like it or not, you and I are tied together. See, even the heavens want you to help me achieve great things!"
"Nonsense!"
A figure glowing with golden light flew out from the protagonist’s ring.
The figure was none other than the protagonist’s personal cheat device.
The protagonist’s ring was previously stolen by a small poisonous creature. After many good words were spoken by the old monk, the creature returned it to the protagonist.
After a series of events, the old monk’s cultivation wasn’t enough, so he stayed hidden, not daring to show his face.
Now that the Sage of Time has entered Yao Su’s body, with Yao Su’s cultivation destroyed by Tribulation Thunder, leaving her weaker than a Tier One Body Tempering Realm cultivator,
the old monk suddenly felt competent again and quickly emerged to assert his presence.
As soon as the Sage of Time finished speaking, the old monk jumped out to counter.
He glared at the Sage of Time and refuted: "A little monk’s destiny is to conquer kingship, not to look for some lousy treasure! A mere treasure vault is nothing compared to the entire Great Xia Dynasty!"
The Sage of Time had long noticed the old monk.
Undead mages are extremely sensitive to undead creatures, and the Sage of Time, being a patriarch of undead mages, could smell the monk’s presence from ten miles away.
Originally, out of respect for the protagonist, the Sage of Time had no intention of acknowledging the old monk.
Unexpectedly, the old monk took the initiative to reveal himself.
And he dared to insult him.
Preposterous!
"Fool!"
The Sage of Time reached out with a grab, and the old monk’s divine soul flew uncontrollably towards him.
"How is this possible?" The old monk’s face changed dramatically, "You clearly don’t have the cultivation..."
The Sage of Time grabbed his neck, sneering: "A mere wandering soul dares to be presumptuous in front of me? Simply courting death!"
With this, he sneered coldly: "As for the cultivation you mentioned, I am a mage. What do I need cultivation for? As long as there are magic elements in this world, I have endless magic power!"
"Let him go," the protagonist said with a gloomy face.
The protagonist knew that the Sage of Time was addressing those words to him through the old monk.
Earlier was persuasion, and now it’s coercion.
The protagonist’s face darkened to the extreme.
This Sage of Time deserves his reputation as a centuries-old manipulator, adept at using both carrot and stick to great effect.
The Sage of Time was easy to talk to.
As soon as the protagonist asked him to release the old monk, he promptly let go.
The old monk, suddenly freed, immediately flashed to the protagonist’s side.
The old monk stood in front of the protagonist, trying his best to protect him:
"Little monk, this person is very dangerous, you can’t go head-to-head with him. I’ll hold him off, and you quickly leave to find Zhao Yi, only he can help you!"
The Sage of Time indeed exerted tremendous pressure on the old monk, enough for him to suggest asking for Zhao Yi’s help.
Note that he used to encourage the protagonist to get rid of Zhao Yi and seize his land and throne.
The protagonist waved to signal the old monk to stop talking.
Then, he turned to the Sage of Time and asked: "Do you have any clues about the Ancient Secret Treasure?"
The old monk was stunned: "Little monk, you..."
The protagonist looked at him and said in a deep voice: "Grandmaster, the Sage of Time is not a bad person. We should try to cooperate with him. Also, haven’t you always wanted me to achieve great things? We can take this opportunity to gather some resources because with resources, it’s easier to recruit soldiers and horses."
The old monk paused for a moment, then fell silent.
Seeing the old monk stop speaking, the protagonist turned his head back to look at the Sage of Time.
He suddenly realized that ever since the Sage of Time suppressed Su Qianqian’s divine soul, Yao Su’s body suddenly became more pleasing to the eye.
If it could always be this way, it would be great.
Or rather, when it comes time to remove the Sage of Time, it would be ideal if both women could die together.
The protagonist pondered this and realized how easily it could be done.
Yao Su’s body has no cultivation, and the Sage of Time is a mage.
According to the protagonist’s observations, mages seem to prioritize divine soul training while neglecting physical conditioning.
With his Tier Ten Void Realm strength, the protagonist could easily shatter this body into powder with just a bit of force.
The protagonist didn’t believe it otherwise.
If he dismembered this body, how could those two women possibly survive?
However, before that, he should acquire the Ancient Secret Treasure first.
The protagonist sighed inwardly.
He was so poor!
At the same time, he wanted to conduct an experiment.
If what the old monk said was true, that he was chosen by the heavens to achieve great things,
then the heavens wouldn’t just allow him to escape danger without providing money.
After all, without money, how could he start a rebellion?
The protagonist hadn’t given it much thought before, but with the Sage of Time persistently seeking him out, he finally sensed something amiss.
The Ancient Secret Treasure might be his opportunity. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Otherwise, the Sage of Time wouldn’t be so persistent in finding him.
The protagonist felt more reasoned the more he thought about it.
Zhao Yi is so wealthy; it might be his turn to earn riches!
