Berserk God of War

Chapter 728: Chapter 728: You, Just a Toy

”Hua Lidian, don’t be complacent...”

Ren Dongmeng suddenly sneered, ”If the news that Su Yuexi is a War Body gets out, what do you think will happen to the Sikong siblings?”

At this point, Ren Dongmeng’s lips suddenly twisted into a chilling smile.

Instantly, Hua Lidian shuddered, turning back with a face ashen as iron.

He sternly warned, ”Ren Dongmeng, if you dare to spread this, I will have you thrown out of Overlord Commerce.”

Ren Dongmeng’s actions were a part of the power struggles, which were not tolerated by Overlord Commerce.

Suddenly, Ren Dongmeng’s expression slightly hardened, and she scoffed, ”Of course I won’t spread it, but maybe someone from Long Night Saint Dragon Palace will? It’s not just me who knows this secret.”

She would, of course, not admit to violating the rules of Overlord Commerce, but she wasn’t the only one who knew the secret of the War Body.

The people from Heavenly Dao Academy who came this time had all perished.

But she could claim there was a traitor within Long Night Saint Dragon Palace, she just wanted to spread the word, albeit not admitting it outright.

”Ren Dongmeng, do you dare?” Hua Lidian could easily see through Ren Dongmeng’s intentions, his voice cold.

Upon hearing this, Ren Dongmeng still appeared unconcerned, even amused at Hua Lidian’s expense.

”What would I dare to do?”

”What does it matter to me if a few traitors emerge from Long Night Saint Dragon Palace?”

”After all, there are definitely traitors in Long Night Saint Dragon Palace, and the secret of Su Yuexi’s War Body will definitely get out... giggles!”

She laughed joyously, the more she thought about it, the more she felt she should let the secret of Su Yuexi’s War Body out.

Hua Lidian’s eyes widened, furiously frustrated, yet unsure of what to do; he couldn’t just kill Ren Dongmeng right here.

But even if he reported this matter to the Decision Maker now, it would be too late.

The next moment, a cold voice spoke, ”As long as you are dead, there will be no traitors in Long Night Saint Dragon Palace.”

As the voice fell, boom, boom, boom...

Strong auras descended from the sky.

Shen Qingye riding the Seven Symbols Heavenly Dragon, Tan Yue holding the Six Image Dragon Sword, and Sikong Ling leading the elite of Wangyou Sect, appeared, encircling Ren Dongmeng and Hua Lidian.

Suddenly, Sikong Jing stepped forward, a bird perched upon his shoulder.

Instantly, Ren Dongmeng’s expression solidified, and Hua Lidian was extremely startled.

Sikong Jing had managed to track their movements and had brought with him elites from two major forces to launch an attack.

For the record, they had never shown themselves.

The stewards of Overlord Commerce were powerful, sometimes deliberately revealing themselves and sometimes not.

Typically, they would appear as guests at public events like duels or banquets, whereas in situations like vendettas, they would monitor in secret. Because of their reputation for not engaging in conflicts, many powers took no notice of them.

Yet, Sikong Jing had found them; how had he managed that?

However, after her initial surprise, Ren Dongmeng quickly composed herself and cooed at Sikong Jing, ”Sikong Jing, what was that you just said? You seemed to say... you want to kill me?”

Sikong Jing, expressionless, gently stroked the bird on his shoulder, which immediately chirped twice and flew off.

The ability to track the movements of Ren and Hua relied on controlling the Little Demon Beast.

Just in case, Sikong Jing had also released the aura of the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts while pursuing the people from Heavenly Dao Academy, and unexpectedly it had indeed paid off, leading them directly to these two from Overlord Commerce.

They were precisely the ones Sikong Jing had just referred to as having been overlooked.

After the little bird had flown far away, Sikong Jing finally looked back at Ren Dongmeng and said flatly, ”Yes, if you died, there would be no traitors in the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace, and Yue Xi’s War Body secret would no longer be spread.”

His tone was devoid of any fluctuation, calm as a still pond, as if killing Ren Dongmeng was no different than killing any minor character.

If there was any room for negotiation earlier, Sikong Jing had felt the intent to kill the moment he heard Ren Dongmeng’s words.

The surrounding area was deathly silent, filled with murderous intent.

The face of the Second Elder of the Wangyou Sect turned ugly, and after glancing at Sikong Ling, he remained silent for the time being.

As for Shen Qingye and others, they pressed close to Ren Dongmeng decisively, sharing the same determined attitude as Sikong Jing.

At that moment, Ren Dongmeng opened her mouth and then: ”Ha, hahaha...”

She burst into laughter, her laughter shaking like branches in the wind.

The laughter was thick with mockery, and then, clutching her stomach with one hand and pointing at Sikong Jing with the other, she said, ”To kill a steward of the Overlord Commerce... Sikong Jing, did you leave your brain behind?”

This statement made Shen Qingye and Tan Yue involuntarily glance at each other.

The Overlord Commerce was too formidable, an organization that stood above all powers, and it was known that their presence extended beyond just the East Plain Northern Land.

In any case, whatever Sikong Jing said, went; those who needed to be killed, still had to be killed.

Meanwhile, Sikong Jing let her laugh with an expressionless face.

Not until her laughter stopped did he sneer, ”Deliberately intending to reveal the secret of the War Body, and previously using the loopholes of Overlord Commerce’s rules to harm me and Ling’er, if not you, then who should die?”

Although Ren Dongmeng had never openly participated in the conflict, her words were clear enough that even a fool could see through them.

”You can eat recklessly, but words mustn’t be carelessly spoken... I didn’t do what you’re accusing me of,” Ren Dongmeng, with narrowed eyes, shamelessly replied, ”Moreover, do you think the people behind you dare lay a hand on me?”

Saying this, Ren Dongmeng pointed first to Shen Qingye, then to the Second Elder of the Wangyou Sect.

The former’s eyes were icy, and the latter’s pupils shrank as he stepped back.

Clearly, the people from Wangyou Sect appeared particularly hesitant, even already beginning to back down.

”Steward Hua, perhaps you should educate your Brother Sikong about our Overlord Commerce,” she said.

At that moment, Ren Dongmeng lazily looked at Hua Lidian next to her.

Hua Lidian had been silent since Sikong Jing and others arrived, his expression solemn, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

At that moment, upon hearing this, he finally spoke, ”Steward Ren, you do the educating.”

”Alright then, I’ll take it upon myself to properly explain,” Ren Dongmeng said with a shrug, slowly adding, ”First of all, you must know that any steward of the Overlord Commerce needs to be at least at the Third Realm of Reverse Soul.”

Hiss...

The moment the words were spoken, the crowd involuntarily gasped.

Whether it was the Seven Symbols Heavenly Dragon or the Second Elder of Wangyou Sect, they were only at the First Realm of Reverse Soul.

This meant, even if the entire Long Night Saint Dragon Palace along with the current Wangyou Sect attacked, they could kill Ren Dongmeng, but at an extremely devastating cost, not to mention the presence of an ambiguous Hua Lidian.

Two individuals in the Third Realm of Reverse Soul combined would definitely be unstoppable.

”Secondly, if a steward of the Overlord Commerce is killed, then that power would be utterly destroyed. Overlord Commerce does not involve itself in fights, but it does not allow anyone to attack the Overlord Commerce either,” Ren Dongmeng’s voice became sharp, but then she looked slyly at Sikong Jing, saying, ”Lastly, no matter how talented you are, you’re just a small toy of the Overlord Commerce.”

The last sentence made everyone look at each other in dismay—were the geniuses of the East Plain Thousand Tyrant List just toys?
