Berserk God of War

Capítulo 1675: Chapter 1675: Upright and Honorable—Can I?

Mouth agape, Murong Jianyun was still confused, why did Sikong Jing have to go to Willow Leaf Saint Manor?

Assigning a task for him to go there is such a simple matter, does it need such a big display? It’s baffling to lure oneself with the Domineering Soul Soldier Killing Map, only slightly weaker than the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map, what is this all about?

Of course, Murong Jianyun felt that the matter was definitely not that simple, Sikong Jing must have some motive.

In his mind, all of Sikong Jing’s information suddenly flashed through…

Coming from the East Plain, born in the Small Domain of the Minglong Mountain Range where Su Old Demon died, he was once captured and thrown by Xiu Hanzi, then appeared on Sacred Canggu Peak resolving three major dilemmas of Canggu City, followed by the Hanluan City incident.

Many things are linked to Su Old Demon!

And if it weren’t for the ability to repair the Qianyuan Soldier Fragment, Murong Jianyun wouldn’t have thought he would be a remnant of Su Old Demon, after all, Xiu Hanzi said he had no Soldier Killing talent, but how could he repair the Qianyuan Soldier Fragment without such talent?

This itself is contradictory…

And this matter is like piercing a layer of paper, allowing Murong Jianyun to suddenly see the light.

Suddenly, Murong Jianyun recalled a very crucial matter—Su Old Demon’s son is at the Willow Leaf Saint Manor.

He slowly raised his head, staring intently at Sikong Jing, as terror gradually filled his eyes, finally hoarsely asking: “What are you going to do at Willow Leaf Saint Manor, why must you be dispatched in the name of Overlord Commerce?”

His heart grew increasingly frenzied; he was certainly going to find Su Old Demon’s son, certainly planning to use Overlord Commerce as cover.

“Great Heaven Decision, you should have guessed it.” Sikong Jing spoke deeply, observing Murong Jianyun’s expression.

With these words, Murong Jianyun’s face suddenly turned troubled.

This statement almost indirectly confirmed that Sikong Jing was indeed a remnant of Su Old Demon, causing endless bitter smiles!

He said with some helplessness: “Brother Sikong, can you consider another faction, our Overlord Commerce cannot bear this!”

Murong Jianyun’s implication was: Please don’t use us, our Overlord Commerce is not strong enough.

His tone and wording had already changed.

It was no longer the dynamic of a superior and subordinate, but more like negotiating with a representative of another faction.

However, Sikong Jing merely smiled slightly, saying: “It’s rather difficult, back then I could only rely on Overlord Commerce to leave East Plain Northern Land, since it was the only top force operating in the entire East Plain.”

Though not spelled out bluntly, Sikong Jing certainly indirectly confirmed it.

“Then, when I wanted to establish myself in Central Plains, I also had to rely on Overlord Commerce, and later the Great Heaven Decision knew, I inadvertently became the successor of the Soul Dominator Venerable, making it impossible to sever connections with Overlord Commerce.”

Mouth agape, Murong Jianyun continued to smile wryly, what else could he do but smile bitterly.

Finally, he sighed deeply, saying: “Old Teng disappearing might be one thing, but why dig such a huge pit for Overlord Commerce.”

Indeed, there’s no severing the connection now, it’s known everywhere that Overlord Commerce is preparing to sell the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Array.

Now everyone knows Murong Jianyun’s adamantly safeguarding, how to sever the connection?

“Perhaps it’s not a pit after all? Since even the Great Heaven Decision is tempted by the Soul Dominator Soldier Killing Map.” Sikong Jing smiled again.

In fact, Sikong Jing had long anticipated when repairing the Qianyuan Soldier Fragment that Murong Jianyun would surely deduce he was the remnant of Su Old Demon, intentionally allowing him to do so.

Originally he wanted to speak about more and deeper matters, but Venerable Ba Lian appeared and took him away at that time.

Hence, some words remained unsaid until now.

And now is the right moment to speak candidly, to openly disclose everything and negotiate conditions within the Soul Dominator Secret Realm, his territory, with Murong Jianyun.

Following Sikong Jing’s words, Murong Jianyun sighed: “Temptation is one thing, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to enjoy it.”

Indeed, should we be careless, our Overlord Commerce might face total destruction.

“What if I add repairing the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map?” Sikong Jing directly stated, essentially upping the stakes.

Murong Jianyun’s heart trembled violently; the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map was too tempting, otherwise he wouldn’t have previously said Sikong Jing was his reverse scale.

But ultimately, he still grit his teeth and said: “I’m afraid I won’t be able to enjoy it either…”

Murong Jianyun remained cautious; even though he couldn’t sever the connection, he could still ruthlessly push Sikong Jing out to die.

Of course, the consequence would be Venerable Ba Lian likely sharing the same fate, and Overlord Commerce shrouded in clouds.

“And if I add that Pei Yuxian mentioned before dying that there’s a Qianwang defector hidden within Overlord Commerce?” Sikong Jing casually added, yet this statement made Murong Jianyun’s heart convulse wildly.

A simple sentence, yet it spoke volumes.

Pei Yuxian was assassinated by him, and before dying was interrogated, revealing a Qianwang defector within Overlord Commerce too.

At this moment, it became absolutely certain that Sikong Jing was the remnant of Su Old Demon.

Closing his eyes deeply, Murong Jianyun suddenly regained composure, saying: “Brother Sikong, you are young and haven’t experienced the events of Su Old Demon’s era, is it necessary to plunge into turmoil due to a few words from Xiu Hanzi?”

In Murong Jianyun’s view, Sikong Jing joined Su Old Demon’s remnants due to Xiu Hanzi’s persuasion.

Thus, he intended to persuade Sikong Jing to leave Su Old Demon’s faction.

He continued: “You can entirely cease being the remnant of Su Old Demon; you can legitimately become…”

Before he finished, Sikong Jing interjected flatly: “Can a non-combatant like me live uprightly?”

A single sentence rendered Murong Jianyun speechless.

A non-combatant like him cannot survive uprightly in this land; the demon’s allegations have already been blasted out by the Pei Yuxian siblings.

Dammit, damn! Murong Jianyun couldn’t help but curse inwardly; this matter is irresolvable, Sikong Jing simply cannot leave Su Old Demon’s faction.

Now, Sikong Jing further increased the stakes: “What if among the Qianwang Holy Tower defectors, there is a Heavenly Decision Maker?”

With these words, Murong Jianyun’s eyes suddenly widened, and then… Boom!

His terrifying aura soared to the skies!

His skin suddenly flush red, and his whole body shook violently; a Heavenly Decision Maker as a Qianwang Holy Tower defector is absolutely intolerable for him as a Great Heaven Decision.

This is terrifying and anxiety-inducing, proving the Qianwang Holy Tower’s influence has extended very far indeed.

For Overlord Commerce, the threat is immense.

“What if I tell you, Shiyu Commerce is also a faction under Qianwang Holy Tower and completely controlled by it?” Sikong Jing continued to press harder, seeking to persuade Murong Jianyun.

Although Murong Jianyun harbored resistance and defiance against Qianwang Holy Tower, he hadn’t reached the strongest stage yet, unconvinced of waging an all-out confrontation, so Sikong Jing aimed to make him feel the real threat.

Factually speaking, Overlord Commerce is incredibly perilous, because of the mortal enemy Shiyu Commerce.

As Sikong Jing said these words, Murong Jianyun suddenly raised his head, hoarsely asking: “Are you sure?”
