I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 243

Chapter 243 Can I Reject This Reward?

At the sect town, in the Divine Firmament area…

Shopkeeper Song sat in the courtyard with a frown while in a daze.

Qin Yundi, Liu Taiyi, and the others saw him and approached him, concerned.

“Junior Brother Song, what's wrong? Is there anything disturbing you? Tell us so we can share the burden.”

“After going through this battlefield trial together, we're already brothers that have shared life and death, just speak without worries.”

“Senior Brother Fugui, besides Master Celestial, there are not many people I acknowledge. So just speak your mind, I'll definitely help you!”

Upon hearing how concerned the surrounding his Senior and Junior Brothers were, Shopkeeper Song sighed and said, “Sigh… it's a long story!”

Qin Yundi narrowed his eyes. “Then just cut the long story short!”

Shopkeeper Song said with resentment, “Just now, my unlucky son came to the sect town and told me that he had hooked up with the Song Family's First Young Miss.”

Hooked up with the Song Family's First Young Miss?

Qin Yundi and the others exchanged gazeswasn't this a good thing?

Everyone knew that Shopkeeper Song was originally from one of the cultivation Song Family's branches, which was near the Country of Fire.

Although this so-called cultivation Song Family was utterly weak, their strongest elder's cultivation level was only at peak Golden Core-it was still Shopkeeper Song's main family.

Shopkeeper Song's son being able to obtain the heart of the Song Family's First Young Miss, this should not be a thing that would make him upset, right?

Liu Taiyi said, “Children can take care of themselves when they grow up, so you should be happy that your son has a Dao companion.”

Shopkeeper Song shook his head. “I'm not sad because he has a Dao companion. It's that after he found a Dao companion, he did not stay at home with his wife. Instead, he actually specially came to the sect town to inform me to go back and host the wedding.”

Eunuch Gui was stunned. “A marriage hosted by one's parents, is there anything wrong with it?

Shopkeeper Song sighed and said, “Eunuch Gui, there's something you don't know. My family is just a branch family of the Song Family, so we were always ignored.

“The reason my son was able to steal the heart of the Song Family's First Young Miss, is it really because she likes him, an ugly guy?

“Ha! It's because I entered the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, so I'm no longer what I used to be. Wouldn't they want to curry favor with me now?”

After pausing for a moment, Shopkeeper Song said helplessly, “Originally, I wanted to bring my son to the Divine Firmament City after I enhanced my cultivation.

“Then I could beat, Teach and take care of him anytime. He might even have a chance to join the sacred ground in the future.

“Who would have thought that he would be tempted and charmed by the main family's daughter, becoming Dao companions so early?

“Otherwise, if I brought him to the Divine Firmament City and let him join the Favored Ones to work for Master Celestial, his future would be limitless!”

Shopkeeper Song was filled with disappointment as his son had not met his expectations. This idiotic son is useless!

Liu Taiyi comforted him, “Children can take care of themselves once they grow up. Since your son has already found his happiness, then just leave him be.”

Shopkeeper Song shook his head. “I am not angry because he found a Dao companion. It's because he wants me to go back and host the wedding.”

Shopkeeper Song became angrier as he spoke. “I am now following Master Heavens, and my cultivation levels increase by leaps and bounds, I don't even have time to butter up Master Heavens, so how would I have the time to go host some wedding!?

“I have been in the commerce business for so long. I don't dare to say I'm able to artfully scheme, but at least I am strategic, rational, and wise. However, my good-for-nothing son's brain is empty, and he keeps causing trouble for me day in day out.

“He even wants me to give up on flattering Master Heavens and return to host the wedding… He's simply an outrageous fool! “Is his wedding more important or flattering Master Heavens more important? Does he not know!?”

Eh? So it's because of this!

As they listened to Shopkeeper Song, their mouths could not help but twitch.

As expected of the Favored Ones' Grand Elder, he had such firm resolution!

Qin Yundi asked, “Then Junior Brother Song, it means that you've rejected your son and directly made him leave?”

Shopkeeper Song shook his head. “No, I used a paternity test mystic technique before I told him to scram and get married. I had long wanted to do this test, but I had not found the mystic technique for it. Thus, after I joined the sacred ground, I trained hard in this art. Just now, I used this mystic technique to see if that idiot is really my son.” As Shopkeeper Song spoke, his expression turned sad, and he sighed. “This is the true reason why I'm upset!” Huh? Tsss!

They seemed to have heard some huge gossip!

Everyone's eyes lit up with curiosity.

Liu Taiyi asked with sympathy, “Senior Brother Fugui, what do you mean?”

Zhen Zhijia looked at Song Shopkeeper intensively. “Is it possible that your son is not really your son? OMG, breaking news!”

Qin Yundi smiled and said, “Junior Brother Song, don't worry. We will definitely keep it a secret for you and definitely not let others know.”

Eunuch Gui also said sternly, “My lips are sealed.”

Qin Gao said seriously, “My lips are sealed!” Xiong Meng also nodded. “Me too, my lips are sealed.”

Shopkeeper Song felt a shiver down his spine upon seeing his Senior and Junior Brothers, who were saying that their “lips are sealed”.

“Cough, cough.” He felt resigned as he spoke. “You've all misunderstood! Who-who said that he was not my blood-related son? He is!”

Liu Taiyi asked in doubt, “Since your son is truly your son, then why does Senior Brother still look so gloomy?”.

Shopkeeper Song explained, “I've been clever my whole life, but my son is a helpless fool.

“Originally, I suspected that he was the son of Shopkeeper Wang from next door, so I thought that one day after I did the paternal test, the evidence would be irrefutable.

“But now that I've done it, this idiot is actually my son. OMG!

“There's nothing more depressing than that! I am smart, but my son is an idiot.”

Everyone stared at Shopkeeper Song as if they were judging whether he was speaking the truth.

After a long time, Qin Yundi sighed and said, “Sometimes, a mediocre life may also lead to happiness.” He smiled and said, “Since Junior Brother Song thinks that your son is not intelligent enough, then why not give him a chance to be an ordinary person?”

A chance for him to be an ordinary person?

Shopkeeper Song seemed to be deep in thought. “You're right. I've already given that good-for-nothing quite the amount of Spirit Stones and Dragon Blood Grass. It's enough for him to live comfortably in the Song Family for the rest of his life.

“In the future, I'll take it as if I don't have a son and follow Master Celestial to cultivate without worries.

“If there's a chance, hehe, I might find myself a Dao companion.”

As he spoke, Shopkeeper Song felt as if his heart and mind were cleared of worries. It was as if he had been enlightened, and his cultivation level even increased. As for the test results, there was already no one caring about it.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of the bell rang, and the sects' disciples started gathering.

Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance, Heavenly Venerable White Lotus, Heavenly Venerable Purple Sun, and other elders of different sects stood in mid-air proudly.

They emitted a powerful aura and were even shining brightly, making one unable to distinguish their real appearance.

This was the special Dharma technique Divine Light.

Once used, it could make one look more mysterious and flashy. It was very popular amongst the mighty figures.

Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance and Heavenly Venerable White Lotus took a step forward. They looked so pure and beautiful that they were the dream Dao companion for countless sect disciples.

Treasure boxes appeared in front of everyone while shining faintly. Heavenly Venerable White Lotus took out a jade fabric, then she smiled and said, “This Primordial Battlefield Trial has ended. In this trial, everyone did well. It could be said that this batch performed the best as compared to the previous batch!”

Just as Heavenly Venerable White Lotus finished speaking, cheers of joy came from the crowd.

It was obvious that Heavenly Venerable White Lotus' encouragement was extremely heart-warming

Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance said calmly, “Next, we, the elders of different sects, will distribute the rewards to the disciples.”

As she finished, she looked at Heavenly Venerable White Lotus.

Heavenly Venerable White Lotus nodded. “The first place of this trial is able to obtain the Spirit artifact from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground— Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer!

“The Divine Firmament Saint, Shen Tian, is first!”

Just as she finished speaking, the Divine Firmament disciples started chanting.

“Top among the Immortals and pride on earth! We will reach Immortal Ascension if we follow him every day!

“The Favored Ones from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground welcome Senior Brother Saint!”

Boom!

Nine Yin-Yang Lightning Explosion Talismans exploded in the air, and they produced an awesome firework, magnificent and gorgeous. In an instant, hundreds of disciples unsheathed their swords, and the swords flew around in the air.

The swords soon formed the character “Tian” in the air, and it looked extremely splendid.

The other sect disciples' eyes were shining as they witnessed such a scene-a true hero deserved such a treatment!

Under everyone's anticipation-filled gazes, the door to Shen Tian's room in the distance opened. A brilliant gold figure appeared in front of everyone.

He was wearing the Longyuan Divine Armor, and behind him were various avatars, such as countless swords, Five Heavenly Lightning Beasts, and others, making him seem heroic and extraordinary. More importantly, behind him was a pair of golden wings, which shone brightly with divine light.

Currently, Shen Tian was really like a god descending from heaven, noble and eye-blinding

old thing, it's all because of you that I was almost late to the ceremony.

Shen Tian could not help but complain inwardly. He turned 720 degrees in the air with his golden wings and steadily landed in front of Heavenly Venerable White Lotus.

His handsomeness was unparalleled!

Heavenly Venerable White Lotus looked at Shen Tian with pride. “You've done well. You lived up to Senior Brother Sacred Leader's expectations.”

As Heavenly Venerable White Lotus spoke, she slowly opened a box and took out a purple hammer the size of one's palm. She smiled and said, “This Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer is yours.”

Shen Tian smiled as he took the Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer. He could obviously sense the powerful energy it contained-it far surpassed the Purple Golden Hammer!

It was heavy, full of vigor, and domineering! “Thank you, Aunt-Master. I'll definitely protect Divine Firmament with this hammer!”

Shen Tian held the Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer tightly, and a drop of blood permeated through it.

In an instant, a purplish-gold aura was emitted from the hammer, covering Shen Tian completely.

The Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer grew hundreds of times larger in the blink of an eye and turned into a humongous armor that was tens of feet long and covered in silver liquid.

Shen Tian smiled and suddenly smashed the hammer toward the space beside him vigorously.

Bang!

In that instant, the space burst apart, and a fearsome black space crack was formed, which emitted a frightening aura.

In an instant, the other sects' disciples were all dumbfounded.

Breaking through space with a hammer!

This was the true strength of the Divine Firmament Saint, Shen Tian? Handsome, powerful, and extremely generous

—that was what all Divine Firmament disciples used to describe him-he's really too perfect!

Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance thought highly of Shen Tian as she moved forward to announce, “The second place in this trial will obtain the superior-grade Spirit artifact from Jade Lake Sacred Ground, the Black Spirit Bead. “He is the true disciple of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, Qin Yundi!” Qin Yundi revealed a faint smile on his exquisite face.

Besides Shen Tian, who was absurdly powerful, he had the most advantage in the Primordial Battlefield as he had 10+ Yin-Yang Demon-Penetrating Guns. He could basically kill all undead creatures instantly.

During the half month he had spent in the trial, Qin Yundi had used those undead creatures as target practice and brutally slaughtered them, so of course, his number of kills was impressive.

The Black Spirit Bead was the Jade Lake Sacred Ground's superior-grade Spirit artifact. It could form a protective barrier after pouring in Dharmic powers and could really make up for Qin Yundi's lack of defensive means.

To Qin Yundi, such a reward was extremely practical.

Of course, as compared to when Shen Tian received, Qin Yundi paled in comparison.

The cheers and applause were sparse and half-hearted since he did not give out Nirvana Holy Liquid

Next, the Crimson Dawn Grotto-Heaven's elder moved forward and said, “The disciple in third place will obtain the inferior-grade Spirit artifact from our Crimson Dawn Grotto-Heaven, the Red Amber Handkerchief.

“The disciple in third place is the true disciple of the Jade Lake Sacred Ground, Xiao Ling!”

As the Jade Lake Sacred Ground representative, Xiao Ling, who had a Connate Spirit Constitution, was definitely not weak.

In addition, she had learned the Deity Peering Art, and she was originally proficient in searching and assessing ores; thus, being in the Primordial Battlefield was like fish to water.

To quickly become stronger and be able to stand beside Shen Tian, Xiao Ling had relied on special terrains. She had trapped and killed quite a number of undead creatures, so her number of kills was considerable.

In addition, to show consideration for the Jade Lake Sacred Ground's face, during the selection of the rankings… The third place in this trial belonged to Xiao Ling.

Although the Red Amber Handkerchief was an inferior-grade Spirit artifact from the Crimson Dawn Grotto-Heaven, and its value was quite low, it was still a valuable Spirit artifact.

Therefore, Xiao Ling would not mind as the reward for third place was too perfect compared to the fourth place.

Supremacy Zi Yang gradually walked out from the group of Elders, his face full of reluctance.

He looked at Shen Ao, unable to figure out how his good-for-nothing disciple had obtained that many undead bones.

It is even more than the Jade Lake Sacred Ground's girl!

He had only just reached the Foundation Establishment stage before entering the Primordial Battlefield!

But, Shen Ao's cultivation level did increase greatly.

In a short month, he has already reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. Also, his foundation is extremely stable. Such a speed is simply too fast!

Is it possible that the effect from Senior Brother's special training is showing!? He spoke slowly. “The fourth place will be able to head to the Grand White Grotto-Heaven and learn Sword Dao from Sword Venerable Long River for three months!

“The disciple that obtained fourth place is the true disciple of the Grand White Grotto-Heaven-Shen Ao.”

Shen Ao?

Shen Ao was completely dumbfounded upon hearing that.

WTF? How the heck am I fourth? Where did my fourth come from!?

Shen Ao remembered that he had only killed a small number of undead creatures, and almost everyone that traveled together had more kills than him.

Are they mistaken!? Can I reject this fourth place reward?

At the same time, in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground's side, a few disciples lowered their heads guiltily.

Initially, those people felt that since Shen Ao was Master Heavens' blood-related brother, they should get on his good side.

Thus, after discussing in secret, they decided to help Shen Ao increase his rank by giving him most of their battle gains.

According to their estimation, Shen Ao should take at least second or third place, but they did not expect the plan to go awry.

It looked like they've caused trouble for Shen Ao!
