Path of Absolute Transcendence

Anna\'s POV

"I should start the plan tomorrow," thought Anna. She did not want to delay the plan; she was really afraid of Kai.

She went to sleep that night and left her room early in the morning to visit Williams in the inner sect.

"Senior brother Williams and junior sister Anna are here for a visit." Said Anna from outside.

Soon William came out of the room, and he saw Anna. His face was completely amazed as he saw her beautiful look, but he soon came to his senses and asked about the reason for her visit.

"Junior sister Anna, what is the reason for your sudden visit?"

\'It seems my charm did not decrease. But why did that guy not fall for it?\' thought Anna. William becomes fascinated by just looking at her appearance, but that is not the case with Kai because of his cautious personality.

"Senior brother, I am on behalf of Master Yin Hao to inform you of something," Anna said in a calm tone.

"So, you are on behalf of the master. Please forgive; come inside, sister." William said these polite words as soon as he heard the name of Yin Hao and invited Anna into the room.

"Thank you, senior brother," Anna said, and she got into the room. When she came into the room, her behavior changed completely, and she did not act like a humble junior sister; instead, she was in the chair with her legs crossed like a superior, and William just stood like a subordinate.

"Sister Anna, what is the reason for the sudden visit?" William asked without even bothering about her change of attitude. He even dropped calling her junior and just changed it to sister.

"Master Hao wants to change the situation between us, so he needs you to do something important."

"What is the plan, sister Anna? Is it confidential?"

"No, the master has trust in you. So you are eligible to learn about the plan. But you need to prevent it from leaking, or else you know the consequences."

"Okay, sister, I will live up to the trust."

"You will need to add this to the food that the holy son is taking. Just make sure to add a small amount every day without fail." Said Anna as she handed over a bottle.

"Sister Anna, is it poison?" He asked doubtfully.

"No, it is not poison. But it is something different, and you don\'t need to worry about being caught; nobody will ever find something mixed with the food. This is colorless and tasteless medicine; even the sect master may not be able to find the difference." She replied in confidence.

"Thank you for the explanation, sister." William became excited to hear he wouldn\'t be risking his life on this mission.

\'This mission is a chance to get free contribution points as long as I don\'t get caught.\' thought William.

"Okay, senior brother, I will take my leave for now." Anna returned to her previous humble behavior and left his place.

\'This guy is brainless; how did he even believe me without any proof?\' thought Anna.

Williams is the spy from the Nine Star Sect; his identity as the son of the elder is also fake. The nine-star sect killed the real Williams and replaced him with a spy.

He must monitor any important things and give the information to the Nine Star Sect. Kai also obtained information about Williams when he was spying on the whole sect.

He found that William was acting strange, so he decided to pay special attention to him and found out about William\'s identity as a spy.

The nine-star sect has a hidden information department, and its head is Yin Hao, who is also an elder in the sect. Nine Star Sect and Slaughter Palace have been at odds with each other for a long time. So, they send a spy to each other to monitor the movement.

Williams has been sent by Yin Hao to send information regularly to update the status of the sect master since the sect master is at a critical point in his cultivation breakthrough.

Once the sect master of Slaughter Palace becomes a supreme realm cultivator, he will eliminate the entire Nine Star Sect to secure benefits.

Both of these sects have equal power for now, but the sect master and his son Yang Wudi\'s rise will imbalance the current status quo, so the Nine Star Sect does not want to take a risk and choose to spy on Slaughter Palace.

Kai obtained all the information about them using the shadows; this information did not cost much money since it was not that valuable. It can also be obtained freely if one spends a lot of time investigating.

\'The Nine Star Sect also did not use their brains; how could they send such a useless person to act as a spy at such an important time? He believed that the poison wouldn\'t be found by a saint realm cultivator,\' thought Anna.

The bottle given by Anna to William is only a bait to use as a shield for the real plan. Using poison to kill Yang Wudi is practically impossible, and any saint realm cultivator can easily sense the poison, no matter how much it is concealed.

Kai did not want to lose Anna for now; she is still a useful tool. So he decides to manipulate the character of William against him, to act as a shield or sacrifice for the success of the plan.

\'The only reason you died is because you are not smart enough.\' thought Anna about Williams. Kai already explained the details of the plan to her, and his way of doing this is a bit extreme for her.

When she heard about the plan from Kai, she was astonished at how smart a single person can be.

\'Maybe I should ally myself with him instead of using him.\' thought Anna.

She was aware of the intelligence that Kai possessed, and she did not want to kill him, but she decided against the idea.

\'He will only use me as a tool as long as I leave him alone,\' Anna thought with her hands clasped.

She knows smart people like Kai won\'t be willing to work under anyone else; their ambition to create their legacy and the desire to reach the peak is absolute. So it is useless to work with them and get betrayed.

Anna decided to use Kai to avenge her family, and after that, she would get rid of him to avoid future trouble.

She did not know that Kai was always different from her and had already decided to eliminate her after all the use.

Kai\'s POV

\'It seems manipulating Williams will be easy; I should change the plan a little bit to make it more perfect,\' thought Kai.

He only wants to use the poison as evidence against Williams in case his plan goes wrong, but his lustful character will come in handy.

\'I should let Anna interact with him more so that he will develop feelings for her. This will avoid giving the information in case he gets caught,\' thought Kai.

It is cruel to manipulate one\'s feelings against them, but Kai did not care about the feelings; he only wanted to break the limitations of his talent.

Kai wants to capture Yang Wudi in the secret realm that will open next month. The Slaughter Palace has a tradition of opening the secret realm on special occasions.

The secret realm is Tier 3, and it is open to all the disciples in the sect. The things and treasures obtained in the secret realm also belong to the person who found them.

The valuable treasure in the secret realm has already been acquired by the sect, but there are a lot of treasures that have not been found, so it is also possible to acquire a good treasure.

Yang Wudi will also come to the secret realm since the sect decided to hold this opening as a sort of competition. Although Yang Wudi became the holy son, his position was not absolute since there are some capable people in the Yang family also competing for the same position.

It was only because of his talent and his status that Yang Wudi was able to become the holy son without any obstruction from other parties.

If his performance is not up to par, the sect will replace him without a second thought. So he needs to come to the secret realm, and Kai decided to execute the plan at the location.

Tier 4 or Saint realm cultivators are unable to enter that secret realm. It is a type of special secret realm that only allows people below the saint realm.
