Berserk God of War

Chapter 737: Chapter 737: Blood Cloud Soars to the Sky

”Hmm.”

The tall middle-aged man nodded expressionlessly in response, then got straight to the point.

”There is a demon who has fled to the Northern Mountains. Now, the Wunian Holy Sect, Heavenly Dao Sacred Land, and Imperial Dragon Manor, among others, will soon arrive. This demon possesses a treasure, and we from Overlord Commerce absolutely cannot miss out.”

”Now, I need someone who is familiar with the terrain of the Northern Mountains to guide us. Do you have any candidates?”

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other, somewhat at a loss.

Especially Elder Mo, who was racking his brain to think of someone most familiar with the Northern Mountains.

It was understood that this familiarity had to be very thorough, or else it would be utterly useless.

Just then, a voice unexpectedly spoke up, ”Venerable, I did have a candidate, but she just died.”

”Hmm?”

The crowd shifted their gaze to the speaker, who turned out to be Deacon Tian.

Seeing this, Deacon Tian tried to suppress a smile as he said, ”This person is named Ren Dongmeng. She was the Deacon of our East Plain Northern Land, and she was originally born in a tribe within the Northern Mountains. What a pity!”

As soon as these words were spoken, Hua Lidian felt a chill through his body. Was Deacon Tian trying to harm him?

Yet, the Venerable snorted coldly and said, ”If she’s dead, then spare me the nonsense. I don’t have that much time. So, is there someone or not?”

”To the Venerable, yes...”

Then, Deacon Tian hastily continued, ”Ren Dongmeng’s mother, Ju Dan, was also born within the Northern Mountains. She is currently the highest decision maker of East Plain West Land.”

With that statement, Hua Lidian’s body once again shuddered, and he stared daggers at Deacon Tian.

The middle-aged Venerable finally nodded in satisfaction and said, ”Good, inform Ju Dan to immediately head to the Northern Mountains and meet up with us.”

After speaking, the middle-aged Venerable and his entourage vanished from sight, evidently in a great hurry to pursue the demon.

Within the ancient building of Overlord Commerce, tranquility was restored.

”Ha, hahaha...”

Suddenly, Deacon Tian let out a sinister and terrifying laugh: ”Steward Hua, Ren Dongmeng’s mother is about to curry favor with a Venerable... And Elder Mo, should you reconsider your recent decision now?”

The so-called decision was regarding the handling of Sikong Jing and Hua Lidian.

Elder Mo’s expression turned exceedingly grim. In the past, if Deacon Tian had dared to speak to him like this, he would have surely taught him a harsh lesson.

But now, he had recommended Ren Dongmeng’s mother as a guide to the Venerable.

If the Venerable’s mission succeeds because of Ju Dan, both Ju Dan and Deacon Tian will have made a great contribution.

In the end, Elder Mo sighed deeply, replying with resignation, ”Regarding the matter of Ren Dongmeng, let’s discuss it further at another time!”

All in all, it was best to see how Ju Dan would perform before making any further decisions...

Not long after, Hua Lidian left the ancient building of Overlord Commerce in a daze. Although no final decision had been made, if Ju Dan returned with the Venerable’s commendation, both Sikong Jing and himself would be in great danger.

”Dammit, fuck!”

Hua Lidian couldn’t help but curse. Last time his ranking was something he couldn’t do anything about, but was it going to be the same case now?

If so, how could he face Sikong Jing and still call each other brothers?

...

Time swiftly passed, and more than a dozen days went by.

The new list for the Thousand Tyrant List of East Plain Northern Land had come out, with Sikong Ling ranked seventh and Sikong Jing ranked sixth.

The sibling duo both entered the top ten of the Thousand Tyrant List.

Once again, they were side by side, stirring up a ”Sikong” craze across the entire Northern Land of East Plain...

But at this moment, the Sikong siblings were unaware of this matter, their Divine Spaceship was nearing the wild-like Canglong Small Domain.

On the Divine Spaceship, everyone had prepared gifts, ready to return home and distribute them generously.

”Brother Jing, we’re going home, but why don’t you look very happy?”

At the bow, Sikong Jing stood facing the wind, looking in the direction of the Canglong Small Domain, as Su Yuexi quietly appeared beside him and asked.

Upon hearing this, Sikong Jing smiled faintly, ”I don’t know why, but I have a very uneasy feeling.”

He couldn’t quite pin down the source of his unease, perhaps it was because the Canglong Small Domain held memories from his childhood and other bitter past events, which made his return a bit melancholic.

But at the same time, it was also where he and Yue Xi shared beautiful memories, making this unease all the more strange.

Tilting her head, Su Yuexi gently grasped Sikong Jing’s hand and replied, ”Is it because of the Wunian Saint Sect?”

Sikong Jing trembled slightly, then nodded gently, ”I once thought the Canglong Small Domain was the whole world, then I came to believe the same of the East Plain Northern Land, but now I realize both are extremely trivial.”

In fact, the appearance of the young girl who was a Venerable from the Wunian Saint Sect had given him a great shock.

Such power, seemingly capable of easily destroying the entire East Plain Northern Land, made even the Iron Bone Flying Vulture seem like mere ants.

Although he was the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts and knew the terror of many beasts.

And he was aware of the existence of the Five Heavenly Emperors, but it wasn’t the same as experiencing it in person... it had never been as real as this time.

It was as if, should the young girl Venerable insist on taking his sister away, he would be powerless to stop it.

Sikong Jing deeply disliked this feeling of powerlessness.

Leaning softly on Sikong Jing’s shoulder, Su Yuexi murmured...

”But Brother Jing is already very formidable, in just one year you have become the most famous genius in the East Plain Northern Land. Perhaps in the future, you could also become a well-known figure on the Central Plains.”

Su Yuexi had also heard from Sikong Jing about the Central Plains and Overlord Commerce, her voice sweet.

In her words, she did not oppose her husband going to the Central Plains; she knew her husband liked a bigger stage, and as a wife, she shouldn’t hold him back, despite the significant risks.

The pleasant tone of Su Yuexi’s voice finally calmed Sikong Jing’s mind a bit.

Thump, thump, thump...

And at that moment, the sound of brisk footsteps arose.

Only to see Sikong Ling running out quickly and asking, ”Brother, how should I conduct the meridian of the Absolute Night Wolf King?”

In her hand, she held a paper with an incredibly complex meridian diagram drawn on it.

Upon hearing this, Sikong Jing quickly pointed it out... Then Sikong Ling had an epiphany and trotted back into the cabin.

Watching his sister’s increasingly playful figure disappear, Sikong Jing forced a wry smile.

”Perhaps I’m being overly anxious.”

”These days I’ve been discussing the Absolute Night Wolf King Meridian and the ’Supreme Forget Love Technique’ with Ling’er, fearing that one day, if my sister leaves me and is unable to continue cultivating the ’Absolute Night Nianqing Technique’...”

Aboard the Divine Spaceship these days, Sikong Jing had passed on all he knew about the Absolute Night Wolf King Meridian, even the aspects he had yet to understand, to Sikong Ling, for her to study on her own.

He was like a parent worried about their children not eating enough when they leave home, stuffing his sister’s pack as full as possible.

At his words, Su Yuexi burst into laughter, ”In mother’s words, a daughter will eventually get married, and what Brother Jing is doing is not wrong... Hmm, Brother Jing, what’s wrong?”

As she was speaking, she suddenly noticed that Sikong Jing wasn’t moving and was staring straight ahead at the Canglong Small Domain.

Instinctively, Su Yuexi looked in the same direction and exclaimed, ”What, what is that?”

In the direction of the Canglong Small Domain, a blood-red cloud appeared, much like the fiery sunset, but it was morning.

Moreover, the cloud was blood-like, a red that made one anxious.
