Berserk God of War

Chapter 708: Chapter 708: Dark Wings Return, The Flame Engulfs the Imperial City

Yan Ruyu was quite pleased with Sikong Jing’s reaction and expression.

”Although the Sikong God General was expelled from the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace, for some reason, Pang Ruanyi of the Heavenly Dao Academy still knew that the wife of the Sikong God General was hidden inside the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace.”

”You killed Pang Ruanyi’s brother, and she wanted to kill your wife to vent her hatred, how terrifying!”

At this point, Yan Ruyu put on a scared expression, but she couldn’t entirely hide the coquettish smile on her face.

And the murderous intent in Sikong Jing’s eyes began to rise again. How could he not understand that the appearance of the Heavenly Dao Academy and Pang Ruanyi was exactly Yan Ruyu’s idea, she wanted to use someone else’s hand to kill Yue Xi.

So, how was the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace now?

After thinking it over, Sikong Jing quickly calmed down.

Now was not the time to be impulsive. He believed that the strength of the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace would certainly exceed the expectations of the Heavenly Dao Academy.

It wouldn’t be easy to kill his wife.

Moreover, if anything happened to Yue Xi, the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace would definitely fight desperately. It certainly wouldn’t be as calm as it was now.

Sikong Jing also understood why Beigong Xianfeng had not appeared. He was probably blocked in the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace.

”Ruyu, there is actually such a big issue.”

On this side, Ji Tan pretended to be surprised and exclaimed, then hurriedly looked at Sikong Jing and said firmly, ”Sikong God General, you need to kneel down according to the rules and accept your title, then I’ll immediately send troops to rescue her.”

He still looked extremely anxious, but he wanted Sikong Jing to feel anxious, he wanted Sikong Jing to kneel.

Would he kneel to save his wife?

Ji Tan was very happy now, thinking that Sikong Jing’s confidence lay in the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace.

But now that Shen Qingye and other powerhouses couldn’t come, what could he do all by himself?

All eyes in the hall focused on Sikong Jing. Cheng Yusu, Huang Yu, and others were all smiling, smiling extremely happily.

And Yan Ruyu exaggeratedly persuaded, ”Sikong God General, that is your beloved wife, the one who even dared to slap my face, you won’t refuse to save her, right? Just kneel before His Majesty and accept the title and you’ll be fine.”

She just loved to see Sikong Jing struggle, loved to see him go insane and crazy for the sake of his beloved wife.

Of course, if he kneeled, she would make him beg like a dog.

”Hahaha...”

However, at this moment, Sikong Jing, unexpectedly, burst into loud laughter. His voice reverberated throughout the hall, shaking it continuously, leaving everyone looking at each other in confusion, not understanding why.

His laughter caused Yan Ruyu’s smile to suddenly disappear as she sharply asked, ”Sikong Jing, what are you laughing at?”

All of a sudden, Sikong Jing stopped laughing and spoke slowly, ”Yan Ruyu, are you underestimating me too much?”

”Hmm?” Yan Ruyu and Ji Tan’s expressions changed slightly.

At this time, the surrounding area was already filled with a strong aura of ice and snow, signaling that the experts of the Wangyou Sect had gathered and were ready to make their move.

”I don’t need Ji Tan’s consent nor his troops to want an army. I don’t need his support,” Sikong Jing continued. At that, a black mask suddenly appeared in his hand, and then he slowly... put it on his face.

Bang!

In that instant, Ji Tan stood up abruptly, pointing at Sikong Jing and stammering, ”You, you, you...”

He was so shocked that he couldn’t even speak, his whole face flushed red. He couldn’t believe it.

At the same time, Cheng Yusu’s body trembled violently, her smile long gone.

And the smug look on Yan Ruyu’s face vanished in an instant, replaced by disbelief.

Finally, Cheng Yusu cried out in utter terror, ”You, you, you... are Dark Wing!”

Ji Tan staggered backward, staring intently at Sikong Jing before turning his gaze to Yan Ruyu.

He had once sworn with absolute confidence that Sikong Jing could never be Dark Wings, but now, it turned out that Yan Ruyu was right.

What made him feel an even deeper chill was...

If Sikong Jing was indeed Dark Wings, then many things had to be re-evaluated.

For instance, the matter of Sikong Jing accompanying the emperor to the mausoleum of the Beigong Xianfeng, as well as that fake Dark Wings corpse.

At this moment, both Ji Tan and Yan Ruyu had lost all their composure.

As for the entire assembly of ministers, they were utterly bewildered.

They had not yet comprehended why, upon donning the mask, Sikong Jing’s presence had changed so drastically, instilling such terror in Ji Tan.

Behind the mask, Sikong Jing’s expressions were imperceptible.

But his eyes swept over Yan Ruyu and Ji Tan, saying, ”Yes, I am the Commander of the Dark Wing Camp of the Long Night Black Burning Army.”

Before the latter two could react, his voice slowly thundered beyond the great hall, ”Long Night Black Burning Army, hear me out, I am Dark Wings... Now everyone heed my command, immediately storm into the Imperial Palace and capture the rebel Ji Tan.”

The sound rolled toward the sky and shook beyond the Imperial City.

Cao Yi and the other Vice Commanders, who had been prepared, trembled violently. Then, led by Cao Yi, the Vice Commanders ignited with a murderous intent and replied powerfully, ”Dark Wing Commander, we accept your command...”

Their voices reverberated in the Ye Emperor Hall with forceful resonance.

Cao Yi then called out loudly, ”Long Night Black Burning Army, heed my command, follow me to breach the palace and capture the rebel Ji Tan.”

The entire Long Night Black Burning Army was slightly bewildered. Wasn’t the Dark Wing Commander supposed to be dead?

Shouldn’t he have been hanged by Cheng Yusu in the Youye State City, how had he suddenly returned from the dead?

But this voice was unmistakably correct; not a single Long Night Black Burning Soldier could forget the voice beneath the Dark Wing Mask.

More importantly, several Vice Commanders had confirmed that this was the Dark Wing Commander, the same man they had to face every day at the brink of entering Netherworld State City, driving Lu Lungan to spitting blood in fury, the Dark Wing Commander!

”Kill...”

Just as the generals and soldiers were confused, Vice Commander Wen Jun suddenly drew his sword, wildly pointing towards the direction of the Imperial Palace.

A commanding ”Kill” erupted thunderously.

With a deafening blast, the gates of the Imperial City were breached, and a massive black tide surged in, the sound of their war cry soaring to the heavens.

The Long Night Black Burning Army had moved, and they had no reason not to.

In the Imperial Palace, inside the Ye Emperor Hall, both Ji Tan and Cheng Yusu instantly turned pale, their surroundings filled with those who had aligned with Ji Tan, trembling uncontrollably.

It was Yan Ruyu who first snapped back to reality, ”Commander Cheng, hurry and lead the Long Night White Flame Army to defend!”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yusu abruptly awoke.

Roaring, he rushed out of the Ye Emperor Hall, simultaneously ordering the Long Night White Flame Army to storm into the Imperial Palace to slay the treacherous Black Burning Army.

Meanwhile, Sikong Jing remained expressionless as he allowed Cheng Yusu to leave, as if he did not even regard him worthy of attention.

Sikong Jing then took off the Dark Wing Mask and looked at Yan Ruyu and Ji Tan with a smirk, further saying, ”Now do you understand why Lu Lungan went mad, why he was desperate to abandon the Youyuan Twelve States to kill me?”

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire Ye Emperor Hall once again fell into deathly silence.

Suddenly, the Second Prince stepped forward, firmly replying, ”Because Lu Lungan discovered that Sikong God General was the Dark Wing Commander, pursuing the Dark Wing Commander was of greater importance than the Youyuan Twelve States.”

Sikong Jing narrowed his eyes but did not respond. Instead, he questioned Ji Tan once more, ”Do you now feel that there will be any controversy for the titles of Invincible God General and side-by-side prince to be conferred upon me?”

”Can I, Sikong Jing, stand with dignity in front of all the ministers?”

At this moment, Sikong Jing’s arrogance was at its peak, yet he had every right to be, for his achievements were unparalleled.

Skeptics, all silenced!
