Berserk God of War

Chapter 1425: Chapter 1425: I’m Terrifying, and You Let Your Guard Down

Just as Sikong Jing disappeared, Jiang Wanyou heard his voice again, saying, ”Aunt Jiang, rest assured, while Yao Bajue may not be able to kill Pei Feishan, he has the upper hand and will certainly be fine.”

Unable to clearly see the battle between the two formidable fighters, Jiang Wanyou was worried, but Sikong Jing’s words reassured her.

Meanwhile, the battle on the lake surface grew increasingly intense... Yao Yulou’s sword wielded frenzied killing moves; he couldn’t delay, any longer and the Emperor’s Artifacts surrounding them would fail to contain Pei Feishan’s aura.

Crash...

Suddenly, Yao Yulou struck Pei Feishan hard into the lake, and he himself plunged in to continue the pursuit.

Bang, bang, bang...

The explosive sounds of water reverberated continuously, and shortly after, Pei Feishan suddenly burst out of the lake and landed on the shore where he had just been, his entire body drenched and dripping with blood.

It was evident, as Sikong Jing had said, that Pei Feishan was no match for Yao Yulou and was severely wounded.

But at that moment... boom!

Pei Feishan suddenly blasted through Yao Yulou’s Emperor’s Artifact barrier.

Immediately after, he flashed to the edge of the forest by the lake and laughed loudly, saying, ”Yao Yulou, you are indeed terrifyingly frightening; you’re practically a hidden wolf, but ultimately, you cannot kill me.”

Crash...

With Pei Feishan’s words, Yao Yulou also fiercely charged out of the lake, but his whole body was bound by a tattered Emperor’s Artifact.

His movements became extremely slow.

Seeing this, Pei Feishan continued to laugh, ”Heh heh, you surely didn’t expect me to have so many Emperor’s Artifacts on me.”

The reason Pei Feishan was able to escape was, of course, because he had enough Emperor’s Artifacts; he continued to laugh, ”No matter how powerful you are, you can’t tear through my Emperor’s Artifacts in a short time, so I’m leaving now, I’m going to make great contributions.”

At this moment, Yao Yulou on the lake surface was frantically shaking off the Emperor’s Artifacts that bound him, gradually ripping them apart.

But given the current situation and speed, it would take at least a dozen breaths, so Yao Yulou’s eyes widened, all full of crimson fury...

Now unable to kill Pei Feishan, things were about to become unmanageable.

”Expose a traitor, confirm the existence of the Evil Charm Holy Body, unearth Sikong Buwang’s true identity.”

”How do you think the master will reward me?”

”Exciting, farewell...”

With that, Pei Feishan laughed wildly, turned around, and was about to dash into the forest...

However, the moment he turned around, at the instant Yao Yulou let out a beastlike low growl... poof!

A sword suddenly pierced through Pei Feishan’s chest, and his laughter abruptly ended.

At this very moment, the excitement on Pei Feishan’s face completely vanished, leaving only a frozen and bewildered gaze.

His chest was pierced through, there were others hiding around here.

And when he clearly saw the person who pierced him, he was utterly shocked and yelled in a low voice, ”Sikong the little beast.”

The one who pierced Pei Feishan’s chest was, of course, Sikong Jing.

At the same time, Yao Yulou, who was still struggling with the Emperor’s Artifact bindings on the lake surface, was also completely stunned, staring dazedly at Sikong Jing in front of Pei Feishan, momentarily forgetting to break free.

The next moment... poof!

Sikong Jing pulled out his sword, bringing out a trail of blood from Pei Feishan’s chest, then said indifferently, ”Pei Feishan, since you already know I’m Sikong Buwang, how could you not guard against my appearance?”

”Sikong Buwang is very dangerous, you... were too careless.”

As the words fell, Pei Feishan stumbled back several steps, he truly had become overconfident!

And now the great contribution he was within reach of was slipping away!

Moreover, he was going to die, Pei Fenqing and Pei Fenyi were both killed by Sikong Jing, and the enmity was not yet avenged, he himself now falling to Sikong’s hand, at this moment Pei Feishan was simmering with frustration to the point of explosion!

”The contribution you won’t get, and you die with no meaning.”

Sikong Jing continued, then stepped forward, his sword piercing again into Pei Feishan’s brow.

The latter’s eyes widened in fury, then he crashed heavily to the ground, twitching for a while before stopping to breathe... Yet, his eyes remained wide open, unwilling, he died with unquenched vengeance.

But it was useless, Sikong Jing no longer spared him a glance, stepping over his body, walking step by step towards the lakeside.

On the lake surface, Yao Yulou finally came to his senses.

He gazed deeply at Sikong Jing, his expression subtly changing, then returning to calm as he broke free from the Emperor’s Artifact bindings, stepping on the water, approaching Sikong Jing...

The two stood quietly, staring silently.

In the distant forest, Jiang Wanyou bit her lip tightly.

Old He was ready to strike at any moment, although Yao Yulou was tenfold reliable, the Young Master’s safety took precedence.

Finally, Sikong Jing spoke first, ”Thank you, Yao Bajue, for killing for me.”

Yao Yulou’s body shuddered slightly; hoarsely, he asked, ”When did you suspect?”

Many questions crystallized in Yao Yulou’s mind, though some things remained elusive, compelling him to seek clarity.

He certainly knew Sikong Jing hadn’t just arrived, having listened to everything that transpired.

”It’s not suspicion, it’s certainty,” Sikong Jing shook his head, responding to Yao Yulou.

Upon hearing this, Yao Yulou’s pupils shrank deeply: ”Certainty?”

He was a bit shocked and puzzled, reasoning that Sikong Jing might merely suspect him to be Qianwang Holy Tower’s person, but to be directly certain?

”Indeed, when you killed the Qianwang Holy Tower emissary at Xiu Yi Clinic in the Chaotic Eighth District, I witnessed the entire event and heard everything.”

As Sikong Jing answered, Yao Yulou’s whole body twitched in disbelief, staring intently at Sikong Jing.

To have been witnessed, yet he was entirely unaware.

How Sikong Jing remained hidden, unnoticed by both himself and the emissary at the time?

Just like earlier, Sikong Jing had also hidden so well that neither he nor Pei Feishan detected him — it was terrifying indeed.

But Sikong Jing’s mysteriousness had long penetrated his heart, so Yao Yulou did not inquire further.

After digesting it for a while, Yao Yulou questioned deeply, ”Then why didn’t you expose me?”

Revealing it then might have positioned himself better than now, might it not?

Sikong Jing shook his head again, replying, ”Yao Bajue, you betrayed the Qianwang Holy Tower, why would I reveal you? Besides, with my level of power and status at that time, would I not risk my own life in doing so?”

Yao Yulou realized upon hearing; revealing it rashly at that time would have led him to kill Sikong Jing.

Yet abruptly, he realized something, staring intently at Sikong Jing, arguing, ”You had animosity with the Qianwang Holy Tower, so it’s impossible to reveal me, the Qianwang traitor — but having just emerged from East Plain Northern Land, what grudge could you possibly have with them?”

This was unthinkable to Yao Yulou.

But Sikong Jing softly replied, ”Yao Bajue, you should already have the answer in your heart, shouldn’t you?”

Yao Yulou trembled again, gravelly stating, ”Su Old Demon Remnants...”

”Xiu Hanzi didn’t truly abandon you, but deliberately let you develop within the East Dominator Branch; many elements of the Sikong Buwang incident were not coincidental but rather your deliberate assistance to Master Wuji.”
