Berserk God of War

Chapter 609: Chapter 609: The Boss Requests Your Presence

”Hehe, it wouldn’t be Soul Eater if there wasn’t something wicked.” Sikong Jing replied with a chuckle.

Ning Jingjing twitched the corner of her mouth, silently mourning for Gongyang Ying as she watched Sikong Jing walk away. The poor Moon Soul Fairy was probably about to suffer a huge blow...

Those with a lower capacity for emotional endurance might just go mad on the spot.

...

It was at this moment that Sikong Jing and everyone else returned to their lair.

As Gongyang Ying was moving steadily forward, she received a message and her eyes suddenly brightened. She turned to the others and said, ”Sikong Yi and Hero Yan have already taken down the Soul Stealer’s nest, we are heading there immediately.”

That was her problem, she trusted the Moon Soul Group too much.

She had no idea that this message had come from Sikong Jing, the impostor Soul Eater Leader.

Without any obstruction, Gongyang Ying charged towards the Soul Stealer’s lair.

However, upon seeing the situation at the entrance of the nest, she shouted sharply, ”Something is wrong, it’s too quiet. We haven’t been attacked by the Soul Stealer at all.”

”And around the nest, there are no signs of battle; there must be some trickery.” Gongyang Ying felt even more uneasy, her pupils shrinking as she stared at the entrance of the lair, which resembled the gaping mouth of a fierce beast, feeling a tingling sensation all over her body.

Suddenly, bang, bang, bang, bang...

Loud sounds rang out as one corpse after another fell from the sky, shockingly all from Huanteng Mountain Villa.

In an instant, Yan Qihuan was stunned, roaring as he rushed toward the bodies.

These corpses included not only his overt team but also his secret forces, aiming to kill two members of the Night Wolf Tribe, the covert powerhouse of Huanteng Mountain Villa; now they were all dead.

Not a single one was left alive; Yan Qihuan’s heart bled in crazed agony.

At the same time, the hundred thousand Jianghu people surrounding Gongyang Ying were all dumbfounded, their scalps tingling as they now understood this was a terrifying trap. Already in panic, they completely collapsed.

Just then, someone couldn’t help but yell, ”Why, why are only the people from Huanteng Mountain Villa dead?”

”No, I should ask why only the bodies thrown here are from Huanteng Mountain Villa?”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone grasped the implication, confusion filling their eyes, including Yan Qihuan who was also clueless.

Logically, the hundred thousand people, including Yan Benxing, should all be dead. If bodies were to be thrown, it should be everyone’s, yet the Soul Stealer only threw out the people from Huanteng Mountain Villa.

”Because only the people from Huanteng Mountain Villa deserved to die. They wanted to kill our Boss,” a cold female voice came from the direction of the entrance, clearing everyone’s doubts.

Then Ning Jingjing appeared, riding a great horse, still dressed in her fiery red battle attire... and of course, followed by the howling 66th Army, disguised as the Soul Stealer.

In an instant, everyone’s pupils violently contracted.

Zeng Yuanxi yelled incredulously, ”Xiao Jing, you, how could you...”

”City Lord Zeng, I am now called Xiao Hun, and I am the Second Master of the Soul Stealer.” Ning Jingjing smiled lightly, then looked towards Gongyang Ying, who wore a shocked expression, and bowed with hands clasped, ”Miss Gongyang, our Boss extends his invitation.”

Hundred thousand people were all stunned, utterly baffled, unable to comprehend the turn of events.

The Xiao Jing from the Night Wolf Tribe had turned into the Second Master of the Soul Stealer; then the Boss must be... must be... Sikong Yi?

Everyone’s mouths gaped open, faces filled with shock.

Gongyang Ying was a formidable figure, and she also figured it out in an instant; her little mouth under the red veil opened wide.

Sikong Yi was not actually from the Night Wolf Tribe. He was the Soul Stealer Leader, Soul Eater, and had participated in their entire plan to surround and annihilate the Soul Stealers, only to turn around and crush them utterly.

No wonder he wasn’t afraid of offending Yan Benxing and Huanteng Mountain Villa, no wonder I suffered such a disastrous defeat...

Giggle, giggle, giggle...

When Gongyang Ying finally realized it, she couldn’t contain the True Qi that burst forth from her body, and her teeth made a ”giggle” sound. From the very beginning, she had been deceived, completely duped by the Soul Eater Leader who bore the Sikong surname.

From the moment she entered Wuwang City, he had set his sights on her, and she, like a fool, thought he was a promising talent.

”Damn it, I want to kill all of you...”

Aunt Mian was hot-tempered, unable to endure such humiliation, and wanted to explode and break free... But sadly, the poison in her body hadn’t been fully neutralized, and she couldn’t fully release her True Qi.

Gongyang Ying instinctively looked at Aunt Mian, finally realizing why the poison was just anesthetic.

Sikong Yi of Soul Eater didn’t want to kill the people around him.

”Miss Gongyang, our leader has requested your presence,” Ning Jingjing, seeing that Gongyang Ying hadn’t responded, emphasized again.

Finally, Gongyang Ying slowly raised her head, her voice seeming to squeeze through her teeth: ”Why should I?”

By entering, her life and death would be controlled by Soul Eater; entering was risky, and something horrifying might happen.

At her words, Ning Jingjing lightly laughed, ”It’s because a hundred members of the Moon Soul Group are still alive, because outside of Huanteng Mountain Villa, two hundred thousand people of the Jianghu are also still alive. Miss Gongyang, surely you don’t intend to abandon them, do you?”

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked, to realize they were all still alive.

The incredibly evil Soul Stealer had not killed these people; what exactly did they want?

”Our leader said if Miss Gongyang doesn’t enter our stronghold, then he will let go of the hundred thousand people behind you, and they will definitely spread unfavorable remarks about Miss Gongyang.”

”They will say Miss Gongyang fled alone after defeat, disregarding the lives of two hundred thousand people of the Jianghu.”

”That would greatly damage your reputation, wouldn’t it?”

With these words, Ning Jingjing stabbed sharply at Gongyang Ying with her sharp metaphorical knife.

”Even if Miss Gongyang doesn’t care about her own reputation, shouldn’t she consider the reputation of her grandfather, the Great Imperial Advisor?” Ning Jingjing continued to escalate her verbal assault on Gongyang Ying.

Gongyang Ying closed her eyes deeply, and after a long while, opened them and nodded, ”Alright, I’ll go in with you.”

”Miss...”

Aunt Mian and the people from the Moon Soul Group shouted, but before they could finish, Gongyang Ying interrupted, ”It will be alright. Soul Eater must need something from me; otherwise, a cruel and cunning thief like the Soul Stealer would never just capture people without killing them.”

Her voice was relatively calm.

Having said that, Gongyang Ying walked towards Ning Jingjing step by step, while Aunt Mian and the people from the Moon Soul Group behind her were pale with fright.

Just then, Yan Qihuan suddenly asked, ”Where is my grandson Yan Benxing?”

He couldn’t find Yan Benxing among the corpses of Huanteng Mountain Villa, so he couldn’t help but ask.

But Ning Jingjing just coldly sneered, not even bothering to deal with it.

And now, even if Yan Qihuan were given ten times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to charge into the den; he could only feel frustrated outside.

Thus, under the watch of a hundred thousand Jianghu people, Gongyang Ying followed Ning Jingjing into the den.

At the same time, the 66th Army’s Soul Stealers erupted out, completely encircling the hundred thousand people, none of whom dared to move.

There, inside the den, Gongyang Ying slowly surveyed her surroundings, observing all the Jianghu people who were tied up, including the thirty thousand who had previously left the ranks wanting to go home; all had been captured alive by the Soul Stealers.
