Chapter 989 Oh, we've Met Before

(MC POV)

"Ok, umm… Master Hei, right?"

"Yes, Master Lin!"

I tilted my head, "You're asking me for help but what kind of help do you even need? Are you hoping that I can uncripple you or something?"

His eyes widened, "I… I dare not hope for such a thing… But if it's possible… I will be eternally grateful!"

I held up my hand, "Before that… I'd like to know some things first…"

"Of course! Anything!"

"How did you even manage to avoid being treated like trash with your crippled meridians? I'd thought the people here would have treated you a lot worse than this."

His shoulders slumped, "Ah… That is because I am not completely crippled, thus I can still access my storage ring where I can use the cultivation pills I have to boost my own aura artificially. The pills I've brought from the Earthen Plane are especially potent here but I'm running out of them… Once I do, they'll know that I'm not as strong as they think I am!"

Well, I can't blame him for bluffing his way through his life here, especially when I did the same back when I was crippled in the other Planes. In fact, I'm quite impressed by the con he's running so far.

Manami, however, was of another opinion, "Ara, ara? To have dug a hole for yourself and now you demand our Master to bail you out? Surely you can't be that shameless?"

Master Hei pressed his forehead against the ground, "I know I am asking for a lot from you, Master Lin! But I am truly at my wits end! I don't even need my meridians to be repaired! If I can just be sent back to the Earthen Plane… No! Not when Sect Master Feng is still there! Just let me be your servant, please!"

Err… It isn't really anything much actually. All I got to do is give you a healing pill and you'd be as right as rain. I wouldn't even need to do much.

But it looks like my disciples are still in their 'villain' mode so they weren't going to just let something like this slide.

"Since you know the worth of what you're asking for, surely you have something to offer, yes?" Lian Li asked.

He looked up, "Yes, yes! I have information! I heard Master Lin is seeking to meet up with the Gods right? I can arrange such a meeting right away!"

"Eh? Really?" I blurted out.

Not because I really needed such a favour but I was surprised that he could do such a thing. Can he really just arrange a meeting with a god just like that? Even gods have standards, you know?

He then lifted a black orb from within his sleeve, "Yes! I was fortunate enough to gain the favour of one of the Gods and was granted a Sacred Treasure! This orb allows me to talk to my God and ask questions of them! I can ask if they would be willing to meet with Master Lin and I will pay the price they ask for in meeting you!"

Oh? That's actually pretty cool.

Kiyomi looked at him sceptically, "And you are sure this God will meet with our Master because?"

The girls weren't worried that the god would reject meeting me, they were just curious what made him so sure that they would meet with us in the first place since Master Hei had ascended to this Plane before my status as Origin was revealed.

Master Hei's eyes shone, "My God likes interesting things! That's why I earned their favour in being able to con my way to my current position! If they knew that Master Lin came from the Earthen Plane and is the strongest being, they would definitely want to meet you!"

Seems like he did his research at least.

Well, I'm actually curious how it works so I decided to just let him do it even though there really isn't a need to.

He placed the orb on the table and took a step back, the colour in the orb began to swirl until the blackness was replaced with a white background.

"Hmm, what is it this time, Hei boy?" A female voice that sounded a little familiar resonated from the orb.

It seems like either the orb doesn't show the goddess he was talking to or only he can see her.

"My Goddess! I have someone who is much more interesting than I am that would like to meet you! I'm sure it will be worth your time!"

"Oh? That's quite a high claim coming from you. You have managed to defy fate once but are you telling me there's someone else who can do that?"

"Of course! He's Master Lin from the same Plane as I am! He's right in front of--"

"Shut up! You're saying that He wants to meet me now?!"

"Eh? Umm… I…"

The white image blinked out of existence before he could even say anything else, causing a black plume of smoke to billow out from under it.

The smoke quickly formed into the shape of a woman and… Oh, it's Shea.

"All Creator!! I am here!!!" She half squealed, half cried while kneeling on the ground.

"Eh?" Four collective voices spoke out in unison.

Oh right, my disciples didn't know about this either.

"Umm… Shea? You can get up," I sighed.

"Thank you All Creator!!"

"I didn't think you'd be the goddess that gave him the Sacred Treasure."

"He… He managed to defy his fate of being trash by making use of the things in his possession. That caught my attention so I thought to give him something back then… Does… Does All Creator disapprove?"

I waved my hand, "No, no. Not at all, I just arrived in this Plane you see, so I'm curious how you gods are interacting with the people here. I'd thought you guys would just stay in your God's Plane and avoid interacting with mortals entirely."

She gasped, "Does All Creator wish for us to stop?! I'll tell everyone to cut off our connection with this Plane immediately!"

Why is she so pessimistic?

"No, no, there's nothing wrong, I'm merely just curious. You don't need to worry. This festival is actually quite interesting and I'm enjoying it so far. In fact, I'll be having my disciples participate in the tournament that's happening too."

She bowed her head in a perfect ninety degree, "We thank All Creator for your praise!!"

Geez she's really serious huh? She didn't really give me this sort of vibe the last time I visited her though.

"Anyway, I don't really need anything so you can go back. Good work though," I told her while giving her a pat on her head.

She gasped and bowed even lower, "THANKYOUVERYMUCH!!!!!"

I didn't even get to say anything else before the goddess disappeared from in front of us.

Well… That's an interesting experience…

Meanwhile in the God's Plane, a certain Goddess of Fate was screaming out in excitement and cheering out at the top of her voice, the other Administrator Gods becoming extremely jealous of her the moment they heard what put her in such a good mood.
