Berserk God of War

Chapter 700: Chapter 700: Return, Great Achievements

Regarding this, Sikong Ling said, ”The Great Elder died, perishing together with Lian Kegu in the Northern Mountain.”

Her voice was neither joyful nor sorrowful; she held no sympathy for those who wanted to kill her brother.

To the members of the Wangyou Sect, however, this expression was normal given the Young Sect Master cultivated the Supreme Forget Love Technique...

Her words left the elders shocked beyond measure, as they exchanged glances.

Then, the Second Elder quickly asked, ”Why did Lian Kegu want to kill the Great Elder?”

The high-ranking elders of the Wangyou Sect all twitched their mouths, their expressions ugly.

In a short period, they had lost two powerhouses in the Reverse Soul Realm, which was a huge blow to the Wangyou Sect.

Sikong Ling tilted her head and replied, ”It’s strangely baffling to me as well.”

”As soon as Lian Kegu appeared, she claimed her master had been killed, and her daughter Lian Zhuiyu had also been murdered, then oddly wanted to seek revenge against me, saying that whoever killed her master was connected to me.”

”And the Great Elder, just as Lian Kegu was about to reveal the reason, helped me escape, then she went back and fought a life-and-death battle with Lian Kegu, and in the end, both of them perished together.”

”When I tried to find their bodies, they had already been devoured by demon beasts in the mountains.”

”Do you know why someone killed the master and yet Lian Kegu insisted on taking revenge on me?”

Sikong Ling invented a reason, pretending she still didn’t know about her brother’s existence, her face remaining as cold and heartless as before.

The elders of the Wangyou Sect looked at each other and secretly sighed.

Apparently, the Young Sect Master still didn’t know that her brother, Sikong Jing, was the murderer of the Sect Master and Lian Kegu’s daughter.

Indeed, if the Young Sect Master had known, she would have broken down long ago.

Thinking this, the Second Elder hurriedly said, ”We are also not clear about that, Lian Kegu is just incomprehensibly mysterious.”

”Then did the Great Elder say it was the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace that killed the master? Is that true?” Sikong Ling asked again.

The elders looked at each other again, asserting, ”Of course it’s true, it’s definitely the damned Long Night Saint Dragon Palace.”

One by one, they could only agree with that statement; it was the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace’s doing.

Nodding, Sikong Ling looked around and asked, ”By the way, why are there so few people in the sect?”

She had just realized that there were many fewer people in the Wangyou Sect. She didn’t know if they had been sent to ambush her brother, but she must find out to ensure that the Wangyou Sect could not threaten her brother.

After hesitating, the Second Elder finally said, ”When the Sect Master was alive, he sent people to Long Night Imperial City to support Eldest Prince Ji Tan in becoming the Long Night Emperor, thereby using the Empire’s power to destroy the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace.”

”Now that the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace has even killed the Sect Master, we certainly have to carry out this mission to the end.”

”And now, Ji Tan’s great event is about to succeed.”

”If the Young Sect Master had returned a bit later, we might already be on our way to the Long Night Imperial City.”

Upon hearing this, Sikong Ling was secretly shocked; her master Mo Ci, during his life, had actually planned to use the Wangyou Sect’s power to support Ji Tan and intended to destroy the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace, the real purpose probably being to kill her brother.

And now, were they about to succeed?

Therefore, didn’t it make her brother very dangerous upon returning to the Long Night Imperial City?

Thinking of this, Sikong Ling did not hesitate to say, ”Second Elder, I also want to go to the Long Night Imperial City; I want to avenge the master and settle this blood feud.”

Of course, her intention to head to the Long Night Imperial City was not to seek revenge, but to prevent this event and to save her brother.

At her words, the Second Elder nearly slapped himself; why did he say so much?

If the Young Sect Master heard the words ”Sikong Jing” on the way, wouldn’t that be problematic? Now, with what excuse could they refuse the Young Sect Master’s desire to avenge the Sect Master?

Suddenly, they all felt overwhelmed.

”Why have you all stopped talking? Am I not allowed to go, am I not allowed to avenge my master?”

Sikong Ling’s gaze suddenly became stern.

The crowd exchanged glances, and the Second Elder finally gritted his teeth and said, ”The Young Sect Master must indeed go, but this journey will be very dangerous. You might become the main target of the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace Master, so you must follow our arrangements.”

To this, Sikong Ling secretly sneered over and over... You just don’t want me to hear my brother’s name, do you?

”No problem, I just need to go into seclusion for cultivation... Oh right, I have already reached the Extraordinary Third Realm.”

Sikong Ling spoke words that shocked the elders of the Wangyou Sect.

This talent was too terrifying, having actually reached the Extraordinary Third Realm—it was almost unbelievable.

”All right, I will go to pay homage to my master first. You arrange for a Divine Spaceship and a cultivation room for me. I need to go into seclusion to consolidate during the journey.” Having said that, Sikong Ling turned and dashed off toward Mo Ci’s former residence.

The elders exchanged looks once again.

Then, the Second Elder quietly spoke, ”We must kill Sikong Jing, that scoundrel, before the Young Sect Master finds out, no matter the reason. We must kill him, even if it causes the Young Sect Master to hate us.”

The elders nodded solemnly. With the Sect Master dead, the Young Sect Master was their future cornerstone.

Especially a Young Sect Master with such extraordinary talent... Already in the Extraordinary Third Realm, she could now contend for the title of the number one genius in the East Plain Northern Land.

And the Young Sect Master was only sixteen years old!

...

While the elders of the Wangyou Sect were departing, busily scheming how to conceal the truth from Sikong Ling and how to kill Sikong Jing,

Sikong Jing was already advancing with the 66th Army but taking an unconventional route provided by Wanbao Pavilion. Despite the large number of 200,000 troops, Wanbao Pavilion was quite capable in this respect.

Ten days later, they successfully reached Long Night Imperial City aboard Wanbao Pavilion’s Divine Spaceship.

The 66th Army also hid temporarily under the arrangements of Wanbao Pavilion.

Meanwhile, Sikong Jing walked alone on the streets of Long Night Imperial City, feeling relaxed and at ease months after his return.

At this moment, Long Night Imperial City was thriving, with countless people celebrating in the streets.

Because the Long Night Black Burning Army had returned victorious.

They had successfully conquered the Twelve States of Lower You and were now back at the Long Night Black Burning Camp, waiting for the Emperor’s grand reward.

”Marshal Cheng Yusu is really impressive. The Youyuan Twelve States, which couldn’t be conquered for hundreds of years, were finally taken by him.”

”Yes, I thought the Beigong Commander was the most powerful marshal of our Long Night Empire, but it turns out Marshal Cheng is the truly strong one.”

”That’s why I say, perhaps it’s good that Beigong Xianfeng died!”

On the streets, various groups of people were singing and dancing, talking animatedly.

Various voices were singing the praises of Cheng Yusu, and as some had mentioned earlier, if it hadn’t been for the death of Beigong Xianfeng, it wouldn’t have been so easy to conquer the Twelve States of Lower You.

Many people were already openly or anonymously saying that Beigong Xianfeng’s death was fortunate.

Currently, no one knew that Beigong Xianfeng was still alive.

Suddenly, another voice said, ”What’s so great about Cheng Yusu? You don’t know that he was just riding on Sikong Jing’s coattails. Sikong Jing killed Mo Ci of the Wangyou Sect and, leading the mountain bandits, wreaked havoc in the War Soul Dynasty, enabling the victory over the Twelve States of Lower You.”

At this remark, a more intense discussion erupted around them.

Concerning Long Night Empire’s number one genius Sikong Jing killing Mo Ci—it was an absolute bombshell, so it was impossible to keep his rampage in the War Soul Dynasty a secret.

But such voices were quickly drowned out.
