Berserk God of War

Chapter 1249: Chapter 1249: Judgment—Win the Fight, Kill!

Sikong Jing slowly retracted his gaze upon hearing the words and looked at the old woman, saying, ”I was in secluded cultivation at Master Wuji’s house and didn’t know the Fox Sect Master had arrived. Master Wuji didn’t send anyone to notify me either.”

His voice was neither joyful nor sorrowful, neither humble nor arrogant, yet such calmness appeared extremely arrogant in the eyes of everyone present.

Because facing the Fox Sect Master, someone like him, just a little servant disciple, shouldn’t be so calm.

At this moment, Renyou and the other women did not know that Sikong Jing hadn’t been notified of Changqing Venerable’s arrival, so when they saw Sikong Jing so composed, they felt slightly assured, thinking perhaps he had great confidence?

However, when Renyou looked at the two Fox Sect women who had escorted Sikong Jing, she frowned.

Why were their faces so pale?

At this time, the old woman stepped forward and shouted, ”Suppose I believe your words, but why do you not kneel when you see the Fox Sect Master?”

Her voice carried a powerful aura that shook tremendously, clearly someone at the first Great Realm of the Emperor Martial Stage.

Yet Sikong Jing remained unafraid of any aura and calmly replied, ”I am not one of the Fox Sect, so why would I kneel?”

This rhetorical question quieted the entire courtyard.

The women standing by the Fox Sect Master exchanged glances, and surprisingly, they did not question him but quieted down as well.

Obviously, they also believed Sikong Jing had such confidence precisely because of... Changqing Venerable.

It’s just unclear whether Changqing Venerable would send someone or come personally?

The Fox Sect Master thought the same, so she did not force Sikong Jing to kneel, but softened her voice and asked, ”Sikong Buwang, didn’t you say you have already joined the Fox Sect?”

In fact, the Fox Sect Master had already investigated and found no such person as Sikong Buwang in the entire Wunian Fox Sect... Men in the Wunian Saint Sect are inherently rare creatures, and investigating is quite simple.

But she deliberately asked now, wanting to see how Sikong Jing would respond.

Upon hearing, Sikong Jing merely smiled and replied, ”That was just an excuse to deal with Beiming Hanshan. If I didn’t claim to have joined the Fox Sect back then, Beiming Hanshan wouldn’t have acknowledged the gambling duel defeat.”

”I imagine, Fox Sect Master, you wouldn’t blame me, right?”

This argument was logical and well-founded, and the Fox Sect Master could find no fault, especially since it was for the sake of the Wunian Saint Sect.

However...

The Fox Sect Master suddenly demanded forcefully, ”Then why did you appear in Wanbing City, and why did Yin Zhunzun bring you to Wanbing City?”

After speaking, a sharp gleam flashed in her eyes, as if trying to pry something out of Sikong Jing.

Sikong Jing lightly glanced at Renyou and straightforwardly said, ”This matter should have been reported to you by Blade Fox General, because Yin Henzi believed I had a Holy Artifact in my Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness, so he sought Master Wuji to retrieve my Holy Artifact.”

He certainly knew what was behind the sharp gleam in the Fox Sect Master’s eyes.

It was hearing Renyou and others mention the Holy Artifact, wanting to know whether he truly possessed such an artifact.

This is something anyone would want to acquire...

And on that matter, Renyou and the others were all present listening; they certainly wouldn’t dare hide anything and couldn’t possibly hide from the Fox Sect Master.

Before the Fox Sect Master could respond, Sikong Jing continued openly, ”But the fact is, I don’t possess any Holy Artifact. Master Wuji already confirmed it, yet Yin Henzi didn’t believe it.”

Just as Sikong Jing had said, the Fox Sect Master had long understood the whole process.

She also knew the cause of Yin Henzi wanting to kill Master Wuji.

It was because of the so-called Holy Artifact of Sikong Buwang, but she didn’t immediately accuse Sikong Jing because she wanted to see if Sikong Buwang would dare to deceive.

If he did, he definitely couldn’t hide it from the Fox Sect Master’s eyes.

However, Sikong Buwang remained calmly unaffected in everyone’s eyes, with no ripples in his gaze.

Taking a deep breath, the Fox Sect Master stared intently at Sikong Jing for a while until she truly saw nothing before asking anew, ”Why would Yin Zhunzun think that there is a Holy Artifact in your Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness?”

The Fox Sect Master initially thought Sikong Jing certainly couldn’t hide from her eyes, but now she was uncertain.

She could only continue asking, for this was something she genuinely didn’t know.

Yin Henzi’s trip to East Spirit City in the Central Plains East was not disclosed to anyone, because the issue of the Blood Charm Demon Cat couldn’t be known to other Wunian Saint Sect masters; otherwise, he might face competition.

The Blood Charm Demon Cat was something every Wunian Saint Sect master desired.

Plus, East Spirit City was too far from Wanbing City, making it impossible for any news to travel there.

Sikong Jing slowly raised his head, smiling as he replied, ”Because I killed Yin Shi.”

As soon as those words were spoken, bang bang bang bang...

Including the Fox Sect Master, everyone almost simultaneously stood up.

All the female disciples around the Wunian Fox Sect stared wide-eyed in disbelief, except for Renyou, whose legs trembled slightly, for only she knew this from the Absolute Night Demon Wolf, but she hadn’t yet spoken of it.

Not because she wanted to hide it, but because the Fox Sect Master hadn’t asked.

Also because she only heard a mention from the Absolute Night Demon Wolf, not daring to confirm or say recklessly.

”Because I directly killed Yin Shi, Yin Henzi believed that as a non-combatant at the Peak of the Martial Battle Realm, I couldn’t possibly have achieved it, so he must think I had the power boost from an Emperor’s Artifact.”

”After checking and finding no Emperor’s Artifact on me, he suspected the artifact was hidden in my Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness.”

”Fearing I would detonate the Emperor’s Artifact, he brought me to Wanbing City to seek Master Wuji.”

”But the Master’s answer was: there is no such Emperor’s Artifact in the world, unless it’s a Holy Artifact... so the Master checked personally, and after confirming I had none, Yin Henzi still didn’t believe it, thinking Master Wuji wanted the Holy Artifact for himself.”

Sikong Jing spoke half-truths, omitting the matter of the Blood Charm Demon Cat, only mentioning Yin Henzi’s fear of him detonating the Emperor’s Artifact.

But from there, he said no more, as they already knew the rest of the events.

However, following this, Sikong Jing added, ”By the way, Si Yan and the four beauties were all killed by me too.”

As Sikong Jing’s words echoed, the entire courtyard felt like a chilling wind blowing, everyone trembling as they stared at Sikong Jing.

Finally, the Fox Sect Master sat back slowly, hoarsely asking, ”So is there really no Holy Artifact in your Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness?”

What concerns her the most now is still this matter.

Hearing the words, Sikong Jing couldn’t help but laugh again.

”Fox Sect Master is joking; if I truly had a Holy Artifact, I would probably have died in Master Wuji’s house, don’t you think? Would Master Wuji spare a readily available Holy Artifact because I saved his life?”

The crowd once again exchanged glances, affirming the logic.

A maniacal Emperor Artifact Master like Master Wuji would stop at nothing if he knew where to find a Holy Artifact.

”So, how did you kill Yin Shi?” Suddenly, another woman beside the Fox Sect Master asked gravely.

This woman appeared relatively young, around thirty years old.

Shrugging, Sikong Jing replied, ”Yin Henzi also asked me that many times, and I simply killed him directly, won the fight and then killed him; why would there be so many bullshit reasons?”

His voice was so frank, so composed, so arrogant!
