Chapter 462

Dressing Truth with Lies
Translated by Kollumceti of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

There were many forces hidden within the Southern Continent, but the truly big ones were the Cang Alliance and the Vermillion Blood Clan.

The reason why these two families were able to peacefully develop up till the present day was inseparable from the fact that each of the two had an upper star Sacred Realm powerhouse. It was precisely because of this that they could live together in harmony until now, but…

The time since the Cang Alliance came into existence was shorter than the Vermillion Blood Clan and its development was extremely rapid. Not only did the spies of the Cang Alliance quickly cover the Southern Continent, they had also developed to other regions. Regardless of whether it was their intelligence network or their powerhouses, they faintly surpassed the Vermillion Blood Clan in both areas.

As it had been said, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers.

The Vermillion Blood Clan was astonished by the rapid development of the Cang Alliance. Thus, they were friendly on the surface but secretly on the alert as they made their preparations. But why had the balance not been broken even until now?

That was because there was a lack of opportunity.

In the current situation, both sides had a powerhouse overseeing them. It would result in both sides suffering if they really came to blows, and lead to an advantageous situation for others instead.

Therefore, if another Sacred Realm expert appeared with the intention to form a good relationship with the Cang Alliance, then the old patriarch of the Vermillion Blood Clan would definitely feel uneasy and personally step forth.

“This method is good, but…” You XiaoMo awkwardly looked at Ling Xiao. Ling Xiao had said that his cultivation base was to be kept confidential. It was tantamount to telling everyone if he attended the banquet with his true cultivation base.

“Perhaps, we can release false news.” Yin Ge had more or less vaguely guessed it in his heart when seeing You XiaoMo look at Ling Xiao. Though he was shocked, he did not say anything.

Zhan YuXuan pondered on it for a moment, “How should we release the false news? With the Cang Alliance’s intelligence network, they’d surely be able to verify its authenticity.”

Yin Ge glanced at Ling Xiao, “We can dress truth with lies.”

You XiaoMo had only heard of the idiom dressing lies with truth, and had never heard of this sort of ‘dressing truth with lies’ idiom which may or may not be one.

Yet Ling Xiao revealed a slight smile, “Your intention is to let me ‘show my face’ and use the identity of a Sacred Realm practitioner to release ‘false news’, so that both the Cang Alliance and the Vermillion Blood Clan will believe that there would be a mysterious Sacred Realm practitioner attending the banquet, right?”

Yin Ge nodded.

It would be difficult to distinguish between true and false in this manner, because a mysterious expert had definitely appeared. However, no one would know what his purpose was as this person had not been invited.

There were very few Sacred Realm powerhouses in the Tong Tian Continent. They were so scarce that a large amount of attention would be drawn every time a Sacred Realm powerhouse appeared. This person could possibly make huge waves if he was a highly ambitious person, and would certainly bring about an impact on the other forces.

If he belonged to a certain fraction or joined a certain fighting force, that force would instantly become the top force in Tong Tian Continent and may even surpass the Tong Tian Palace. Therefore, every Sacred Realm powerhouse had to be treated seriously.
