Special Expert of Beauty CEO

”The ten thousand men under my command are the last reliance of Long Jun. After I surrender, the Ice Emperor will have no worries and can fully focus on surrounding and killing Long Jun.”

”I, along with the Ice Emperor, the Martial King, and a few thousand experts, joined in the effort to surround and kill Long Jun. However, Long Jun’s strength was beyond their reach. Even with a few thousand people, half a day had passed, yet they couldn’t kill him. As for me, I was contemplating how to save someone...”

”Later, the Ice Emperor ordered the War God to bring his Black Hawk Army for reinforcement. I saw an opportunity and had my eighteen trusted guards disguise as the Forbidden Army and head to Long Jun’s residence. Amid the chaos, they saw two servants with a child and let them go, leading them out through a side door by the lavatory...”

”Haha, who would have thought that the child was you.”

Sima Tianchen recalled the past.

Qin Tian looked at him, uncertain and skeptical.

”My loyal guards brought those two people and the child before me. I knew there was no place for them in the Spiritual Domain, so I ordered my trusted guards to send them outside the Spiritual Domain.”

”It was supposed to be in the East State. My loyal guards reported back to me that they used the Transmission Array in the East State to send them to a lower place called ’Earth.’”

”Emperor Qin, did you come from Earth? Were the two servants who brought you, one named Cao and the other named Murong?”

”I later killed all eighteen of my trusted guards. But I also witnessed Long Jun’s death... I owe him. He supported and promoted me single-handedly, yet I personally let the enemy in and joined others in attacking him... This is my lifelong stain, I have no words to say.”

Sima Tianchen spoke, almost on the verge of tears.

But Qin Tian smiled coldly, ”These stories you’ve concocted, you think I’ll believe them? Now that there is no proof, you can say whatever you want.”

”I just wanted to tell you the truth. If you want to kill me, I have nothing to say. I am the Qin Family’s sinner, having survived for decades, and dying by your hand, I have no words.”

”But please believe my words. My death is of no importance, but I don’t want you to still hold a misunderstanding of me after I die.”

Speaking, Sima Tianchen stood up and said, ”If you don’t believe me, then come with me.”

Qin Tian hesitated, seeing Sima Tianchen open the door and head directly towards the backyard, and after a moment’s hesitation, he followed cautiously.

The backyard housed a tunnel that led to the Underground Palace.

Qin Tian followed Sima Tianchen into the Underground Palace, his heart filled with shock.

”Old Sima, you’ve come again? Hahaha...”

As Sima Tianchen appeared at the entrance of the grand hall, a loud voice echoed.

Qin Tian was startled by the sound. The voice was as resonant as a bell, full of vigor. It was evident that the speaker had not only high cultivation but also very powerful True Qi Power.

”General Tuba, there’s no need for your mockery. Today, I’m here for closure. I’ve brought the young master you’ve been talking about, I’ve brought him.”

Sima Tianchen stated.

General Tuba?

Hearing Sima Tianchen’s words, Qin Tian was taken aback. He remembered that Sima Tianchen, when recounting past events, mentioned that Long Jun had once sent a personal guard in haste to instruct Sima Tianchen to not worry about Long Jun and to focus on saving Long Jun’s family and child.

And it’s this Tuba? Still alive?

Following Sima Tianchen’s words, there was a brief silence in the grand hall, and then that loud voice, filled with excitement, came through: ”Is it him? Is it him? Is he the Young Master Qin Tian?”

”Indeed.”

Sima Tianchen said, ”I told him about the events of that year, but the Young Master doesn’t believe it. So now, I’ve come to ask you to testify whether it was Long Jun who sent you to inform me to do everything possible to save Long Jun’s family?”

”Yes! Yes, Young Master!”

Lang Sheng Tuba said, ”This Sima Tianchen, although I also hate him, he did contribute to you being the only survivor of Long Jun’s family. This damned old Sima, if it weren’t for him saving you, I would have, I would have... Young Master, I’m Tuba, haha, I even held you when you were born, don’t you remember me? Hmm... seems like you were only a few months old then, probably you don’t remember...”

The rough and loud voice was now speaking incoherently, as if addressing Qin Tian, or maybe just talking to himself.

Qin Tian just stood there quietly watching, making his own judgments in his mind.

What Sima Tianchen said is not necessarily true, and even this Tuba, he could have someone impersonate him.

But why impersonate? Why do this? What’s the purpose? To save himself? To get my forgiveness?

Qin Tian glanced at Sima Tianchen, who said, ”I’ve said everything I needed to. Young Master, you can go ahead, anytime you want my life, I, Sima Tianchen, will not say a word.”

Qin Tian asked, ”What about Tuba? How is he alive?”

Sima Tianchen explained, ”He was originally dead. Later, I found the Divine Doctor and saved him. But his body is completely immobile, like a living dead, relying on Spiritual Energy to survive, so over twenty years ago, I found a place here for him that no one would disturb. His words are through True Qi Transmission.”

”Yes, Young Master, I feel that this old Sima is not too bad after all. Why don’t you also make him like a living dead, just like me, and keep him here as a companion for me, hahaha.” Tuba’s voice came.

Qin Tian took a deep breath and said with a cold smile, ”I may spare your life, but I want you to come with me to kill the War God and Emperor Xuan, do you dare?”

No matter if Sima Tianchen is genuine or not, whether he can kill the War God and Emperor Xuan, is the best test.

”Young Master, killing the War God, killing Emperor Xuan, I, Sima Tianchen, will fight with my life, but can you give me another two months.”

Saying so, he pointed to an altar within the grand hall that was emitting Spiritual Energy, ”I am currently growing Spirit Grass underground, which can grow in cycles. This altar can collect its Spiritual Energy for Tuba to use indefinitely... In about two more months, the last part of the altar will be complete.”

”At that time, Tuba won’t need any care and can live here eternally. It will be a weight off my mind, then I will have no attachments and you may command me as you wish.”

So, he was doing this for Tuba’s survival?

”Hey, old Sima, I asked you to accompany me, and you’re building some altar for me instead, you are so unkind!”

Tuba’s voice came, dissatisfied.
