Berserk God of War

Wen Rou looked at Yao Yulou, as Jiang Wanyou carefully pressed her Dantian against the former’s body.

At the same time, she infused her own essence blood...

On the other side, Pei Kuang looked at the Thousand Prison Tower chess pieces trembling before him and spoke with utmost authority: ”You have all seen the fate of the traitor, now we will officially conduct the loyalty test.”

The chess pieces trembled slightly, and then, of course, Qian Ta took the lead.

Qian Ta naturally had the means to conduct the test, and he slowly gazed at all the chess pieces of the Thousand Prison Tower, his eyes narrowing with a cold glimmer.

”Who among you is a traitor? And who is loyal to the Qianwang Holy Tower?”

”Those who pass the test may enter the Thousand Prison Tower and see your closest kin.”

With Qian Ta’s words, the chess pieces of the Thousand Prison Tower remained silent. Sixty percent of them remained calm, while forty percent’s hearts began to race slightly, praying for Sikong Jing to arrive quickly.

Just as the test was about to begin, the terrifying aura outside finally approached and quickly arrived.

The appearance of various Qianwang experts’ auras proved that Sikong Jing had arrived.

Indeed... roar!

After the roars of a few demon beasts, Sikong Jing still stood atop the Holy Son’s Beast Chariot, rushing to the square before the Thousand Prison Tower.

On the beast chariot, the situation remained as it was previously in front of the Holy Son’s Gate.

Sikong Jing took Pei Yusheng hostage, with ten Holy Son’s Companions nearby, holding weapons and unsure of what to do.

Lady Li also stood on the beast chariot, staring intently at Sikong Jing, while around the chariot were the core experts of Qianwang, including Pei Yuguang, who were on high alert.

However, as soon as they saw Pei Kuang...

They all instantly withdrew their aura, landing on one knee and saying, ”Greetings, Tower Master.”

Now, they naturally left the matter of Sikong Little Demon and rescuing the Holy Son entirely to the Tower Master. Upon receiving the order just now, they completely relaxed, refrained from acting or becoming tense, merely surrounding the beast chariot for surveillance.

At the same time, Lady Li whispered, ”Husband, this Sikong little bastard deserves to die.”

Yet Pei Kuang continued to sit in his chair, unmoved...

He merely lifted his eyes slightly and asked with a calm smile: ”Sikong Little Demon, how is Su Beiheng doing now?”

Pei Kuang was still very concerned about whether Su Beiheng had been completely destroyed, which was his first question.

Sikong Jing glanced at Yao Yulou and Jiang Wanyou lying beside Pei Kuang. Upon seeing they were not in mortal danger, he exhaled lightly, but their pitiable states caused his killing intent to smolder.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Sikong Jing replied softly, ”I appreciate Tower Master Pei’s concern; Grandpa Su is doing well.”

He, of course, would not elaborate on the topic of Grandpa Su.

Sikong Jing was also aware that Pei Kuang was fearful and would not explicitly say that Grandpa Su could no longer fight.

In short, Sikong Jing had now completely achieved the first stage of his objective.

He successfully reached the front of the Thousand Prison Tower, met with Jiang Wanyou and Yao Yulou, and also convened with the gathered chess pieces.

This saved Sikong Jing a lot of trouble.

If Jiang Wanyou weren’t here, negotiations and dealing with various uncertainties would still be necessary.

Next would be the true battle of life and death, how to rescue them, and how to ensure the safety of more people.

With Sikong Jing’s nonchalant response, Pei Kuang gently supported his chin with his hand and then said, ”I heard you want to talk to me, exchange some terms. You can speak clearly now.”

He still displayed an aloof attitude; although Sikong Jing’s answer wasn’t explicit, he had been observing the surroundings all along, even using a treasure to monitor all the auras within the Qianwang Golden Light Tower.

He found no intruders other than Sikong Jing.

Whether in the Golden Light Tower or the Dark Light Building, the formations were extremely formidable, making it impossible for even an ant to enter or leave at will. Thus, everything was crystal clear to Pei Kuang.

But he took no chances, thinking that maybe the terrifying Su Beiheng could bypass the formations?

Now, they formally entered the stage of probing and negotiation...

And Sikong Jing didn’t waste words, going straight to the point: ”First, I want Uncle Yao and Aunt Jiang.”

This demand did not surprise Pei Kuang.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wanyou slightly raised her eyes and then lowered her head again. She continued helping Yao Yulou restore her Dantian, knowing it was not the time to disturb Young Master Sikong. She needed to do what had to be done first.

Then follow the Young Master and observe the situation quietly.

No one noticed that her blood was also circulating rapidly within her, as if something was about to break through its cocoon.

Pei Kuang replied calmly, ”Okay, but you can only exchange one, a one-for-one.”

The implication was: you have only one hostage, so you can naturally exchange for only one person.

Sikong Jing’s eyes narrowed slightly, with the sword tip glimmering with sharp light stretching and contracting at Pei Yusheng’s brow. He smiled, ”Tower Master Pei jests. The life of the Qianwang Saint Son should be worth more.”

To this, Pei Kuang simply gave a sinister smile.

”Jiang Wanyou’s life is equally valuable. You once risked dishonor to eliminate her, and this Tower Master remembers it well.”

Back in Overlord City, Sikong Jing mercilessly stabbed Jiang Wanyou, a stab that ensured Jiang Wanyou could better conceal her Evil Charm Holy Body bloodline, but in Pei Kuang’s eyes, this was Sikong Jing killing at all costs.

It was to ensure that Pei Kuang would never obtain the Evil Charm Holy Body.

The Evil Charm Holy Body or his younger son Pei Yusheng, which was more important or valuable? In Pei Kuang’s mind, the former was more important, but constrained by Lady Li being his most capable and significant assistant, he wouldn’t openly say it.

Pei Kuang believed that in Sikong Jing’s eyes, Jiang Wanyou was very important.

Not that Sikong Jing wanted to obtain the Evil Charm Holy Body himself, but because he had to prevent Pei Kuang from obtaining it... and because Sikong Jing stabbing Jiang Wanyou convinced Pei Kuang that Sikong Jing was also someone who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

Thinking of this, Pei Kuang gave a cold and sinister smile again and said, ”Here’s the deal: Jiang Wanyou can be returned to you, but Yao Yulou is out of the question.”

This statement, of course, sought to win Lady Li’s heart and please her.

But in reality, it was absolutely impossible because Jiang Wanyou could not leave Yao Yulou, so this condition was not viable.

Even if Jiang Wanyou were thrown over, she would never leave with Sikong Jing.

At this point, Pei Kuang became increasingly certain that Sikong Jing was taking the risk for Jiang Wanyou, and that a traitor had leaked the news that Jiang Wanyou was not dead...

See, Sikong Jing wasn’t surprised at all when he saw Jiang Wanyou alive.

Sikong Jing chuckled upon hearing this: ”Fine, then send my Aunt Jiang over.”

As soon as these words fell, Sikong Jing and Pei Kuang’s eyes met coldly, one knowing that Pei Kuang wouldn’t give in, the other knowing Jiang Wanyou wouldn’t leave alone.

Thus, they were merely at odds, probing, and confronting!

The square before the Thousand Prison Tower sank into a strange, dead silence.

After a few breaths, Pei Kuang laughed again, breaking the silence: ”Alright, come back in a month to get her, for now, it’s not possible.”
