After the business deal, Sam directly went back to the city and got busy again.

Since war is going to happen between the Usaine sect and the three a.s.sociations, this is going to be a perfect time for his new idea.

But he has to be fast.

He contacted Arman and asked him to do something for him.

And then he started making the remaining preparations.

Meanwhile, the Pharmacist back in the Beast faction has stopped all his works and started going through the recipes. He is like a little kid who is so happy with the amount of candy this Halloween.

After going through all of them, he thought of something and went to meet Sai.

"Faction head, who is that person?"

Sai didn"t feel too surprised. He expected this already, so he responded casually.

"It is better that you don"t know."

The pharmacist didn"t give up at all and persisted.

"Please tell me, Sir. Who is this guy? Is he really reliable? He only seemed to be a Nascent stage cultivator, but the deal he discussed is too large scale. I should have an idea of the other person if I want to continue my deal. Don"t you think so?"

"Whatever he said he would give, he would do so and whatever you should give in exchange, he must give it to him. Otherwise, you will be in some big trouble. Maybe at that time, I would have to catch you myself and handover to that guy.

But trust, you would rather prefer suicide.

I can vouch for his integrity and that is all you have to know. All these years, you have been cultivating and perfecting your craft without involving in others too much. It would be better to stay like that for the rest of your life.

Don"t get involved in the problems that you are not part of."

The Pharmacist understood that he wouldn"t get any form of information today and also felt that this guy has to be too powerful to make the faction head this determined to not reveal any information.

He left the place in disappointment. But it only lasted for a while and he went to work on his newly acquired recipes.

He would need a lot of practice before he could perfectly create a set of these.

Back in Sam"s city.

Sam is working on how to proceed with his new plan, but couldn"t find a penetrating point. But at this moment he got a message from Arman who just came to the western continent and felt that he could have a possible penetrating point.

Arkiv wants to meet him and he wants to do it as fast as possible.

Sam smirked and went to Arsin to meet with him. But this time, he is in the newly famous wine tavern. But he is not drinking any of the specialties, he is drinking his own wine.

When Arkiv came in and saw that Sam is still wearing that disguise, he felt a little disappointed. He wanted to know who this guy really is to know that Usaine sect will be in trouble.

He sat down and asked Sam.

"How do you know that something is going to happen to Usaine sect?" He asked in a low voice afraid that others will hear them. At that time, Sam took out a formation disc and placed it on the table. A small formation that canceled the noise surrounded just the table.

Sam didn"t reply immediately and took a sip from his wine. There is a small opening in the cloth covering his face near the mouth as he drank it.

"Is it really important how I know it or is it important what I know? Didn"t I warn you already? The Usaine sect is stupid and entered this mess. They wouldn"t come out unscathed."

"What do you mean, stupid and not coming out unscathed?"

"Think a bit more my friend. You will understand soon enough. So, why do you want to meet me?"

"I want to know exactly what is going to happen and who is behind this if possible. Are you the one doing all this? Pulling strings behind the back?" He asked carefully.

Sam almost burst out laughing.

"Are that naïve or are you just pretending to be naïve? Do you think I trust you enough to tell all of these?"

"Then why did you even say those things in the first place?"

"To probe."

"Probe?"

"Yes, I wanted to probe your mentality and see if your relationship with the sect is really as you said."

"Why would you want to do that?"

"You know, just in case. What if you are too deep in the relationship with the sect? I would advise you to take a backstep. After all, you have a lot to do and I don"t think the person behind you will accept if something like that happened.

I just didn"t want you to be on the sinking ship."

"Sinking ship?" Arkiv has a shocked expression. Sam didn"t reply and took another sip.

Arkiv felt frustrated and raised his aura as he said.

"What do you mean sinking ship? Tell me d.a.m.n it."

Sam raised an eyebrow as he looked at him and had a faint smile on his face as he said.

"Now, young sir. Do you really want to fight me? I think you do know what would happen if we fight. Do you really want to do this?"

Only at this moment Arkiv controlled his aura and calmed down as he closed his eyes and took deep breaths.

He clearly knew what would happen. Not just him some other players also saw this and knew exactly what kind of fighter Sam is and they don"t want to fight him at all costs.

He opened his eyes and said.

"Please tell me."

"I don"t trust you. What if you rat me out to your sect? What if they come after my life? I am but an unaffiliated cultivator who has his own small organization with a few friends. If something happens to them or me, who is responsible?"

"If I wanted to do it, I would have done it already. At least, tell me what do you want?"

"I do need something. My organization lacks some personnel."

"You want to recruit me?" Arkiv asked with a frown.

"You mistook me. My friend. How can I afford to recruit a genius like you? I need some artisans and other professionals."

Arkiv didn"t say anything, he felt extremely exhausted. He doesn"t have any form of energy in his body left.

Sam looked at this chuckled. He decided to give this guy some leeway and said.

"I wouldn"t play with words anymore. I will be straightforward and will let you in for information. There is something big happening in the background and someone was able to manipulate the six major powers and a.s.sociations to be in this situation.

Their target is Usaine sect and they are at a war with the three a.s.sociations. Half of their goal is already achieved.

After they are done with the Usaine sect and by that time, you are still there and involved in the war, there is no way for you to be able to escape without any repercussions.

If you really fight till the end, the enemies will chase you to the ends and will definitely let you live. After all, you have great potential, if you held a grudge and want to take revenge, they couldn"t just sit idly, can they?

That is why I asked you to get out of the organization."

Arkiv fell silent for a moment and asked.

"Don"t you think the major powers will sooner or later realize this and there would be some big trouble?"

"Of course, that is their goal. To cause trouble."

"Then, even if I came out now. No place is safe for me. Where do you suggest me to move?"

"If you want to come, then you can join my organization."

"Are you trying to fish me from the start?"

"Why would I even need you? What I am after is those professionals. If you can really join my organization or even if you could just cut ties with the Usaine sect, you can stay at my place for some time.

I can tell you that my place is the most secure place on the planet at the moment. You don"t even have to think twice about that.

But as an exchange for the information and safety, there is something you have to do."

"What would that be?" Arkiv asked as he thought deeply about how to proceed.

Sam explained what he needs and Arkiv"s frown got deeper and deeper as he listened to this.

After that, Arkiv started thinking about whether or not he should accept it. Anyway, he doesn"t have any form of special connection to the sect. It was a place where he went to gather resources. Even in that, he worked his a.s.s off to solve missions for the resources he needed. And even then, he has schemed against so many times.

He would let go of the sect when the time comes, that is why he was asking Sam so many times, he wants confirmation and now that he got one, he has trouble deciding on what to do.
