Berserk God of War

Chapter 1220: Chapter 1220: Let Me Talk to Him Alone

At this moment, the manor courtyard still looks the same as when he left.

Therefore, Yin Henzi didn’t even consider whether anything had happened in the meantime.

The women, including Renyou, have temporarily refrained from reporting about the gambling duel with Beiming Hanshan, because they fear Yin Henzi’s reprimand, even though they never spoke a word to Sikong Jing from start to finish.

After all, it was because of the latter that the trouble was resolved.

As for the Absolute Night Demon Wolf, it’s even more deliberate in hiding; it received guidance on meridian maps from Sikong Jing and engaged in various transactions with him.

Of course, this must not be revealed to Yin Henzi, not even the powerful demonic power it gained from a breakthrough; it’s temporarily hidden until after Sikong Jing is dealt with, and then it can be revealed when the master’s mood improves...

Beside Yin Henzi, Master Wuji didn’t bother with anyone but instead gazed deeply and inscrutably at Sikong Jing.

After a while, he said to the two guards nearby, ”Push me over...”

With a clicking sound, as soon as Master Wuji finished speaking, several wheels suddenly descended beneath his chair, which was covered in mysterious patterns.

It was clear that his legs seemed to be inconvenient.

And just as the guard was about to push the chair, Yin Henzi stepped forward first and said, ”Let me push, Master Wuji.”

Saying this, he immediately took Master Wuji’s chair from the guard and pushed it directly in front of Sikong Jing.

Seeing this, Sikong Jing rose indifferently and asked calmly, ”Yin Henzi, you...”

”Hahaha...”

Before Sikong Jing finished speaking, Yin Henzi couldn’t help but burst into laughter, staring at him smugly.

”Let me introduce you...”

Yin Henzi pointed to Master Wuji, ”This is one of the top three Emperor Artifact Masters in the North Central Plains. He is very curious about the Emperor Artifact within your Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness. It’s better for you to obediently let him inspect it...”

”Otherwise, if you die, the master has to restore my Spiritual Shadow and realm at great cost.”

”Hahaha...”

At this point, Yin Henzi couldn’t help but laugh wildly again. Finally, he no longer had to suffer the threats of this little beast.

Even if Sikong Jing kills himself and destroys the Blood Charm Demon Cat, he need not worry about his realm falling.

Sikong Jing was a bit stunned upon hearing this, somewhat surprised to look at Master Wuji...

Could a master, ranked among the top three Emperor Artifact Masters of the North Central Plains, truly believe in such Emperor Artifact enhancement solely based on Yin Henzi’s few words? But it seems so...

This master, spurred by Yin Henzi’s words, personally wanted to inspect him.

Seeing Sikong Jing’s eyes filled with uncertainty, Yin Henzi laughed again.

”Little beast, are you scared? If you are, then obediently hand over the Blood Charm Demon Cat and Double-Horned Demon Tiger, while also handing over your Emperor Artifact... No, no, Holy Artifact to me.”

Sikong Jing froze again at this remark, suddenly jumping from Emperor Artifact to Holy Artifact?

Given Master Wuji’s reputational standing, it was enough to make Yin Henzi seventy percent convinced already.

Emperor Artifacts can’t be that terrifying, and it’s highly likely that what’s hidden in Sikong Jing’s Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness is a Holy Artifact. How could this not excite Yin Henzi and make him laugh wildly?

Perhaps not long from now, he could obtain not only the Blood Charm Demon Cat but also the Holy Artifact.

If he could confirm this one hundred percent, then Yin Henzi wouldn’t hesitate to kill Sikong Jing, even if his realm fell.

With the Holy Artifact secured, even a realm decline wouldn’t matter...

And Sikong Jing was utterly speechless; what kind of master is this old man?

Can he actually believe there is not only a treasure inside his Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness but also the legendary Holy Artifact...

Yet Sikong Jing quietly shook his head; in some sense, it was true.

But the Ten Thousand Beasts Sky Prison is not simply a Holy Artifact... So he didn’t reply but instead stared intently at the two before him.

Because he could fall into demonization at any moment, Sikong Jing still held himself with confidence.

At this point, Master Wuji also scrutinized Sikong Jing, a glint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he spoke to Yin Henzi, ”This customer, I’m not yet entirely certain whether there is a Holy Artifact, so I’d like to speak with this young man alone.”

Upon hearing this, Yin Henzi, who was on the verge of laughing, immediately froze his gaze.

He then decisively said, ”Apologies, Master Wuji; I must personally watch over this little beast. I’m afraid he might harm you.”

His tone carried a sinister vibe...

In his heart, he thought: how dare you think you can take the Holy Artifact away secretly?

Though Master Wuji’s reputation is solid, Yin Henzi’s nature doesn’t permit him to believe such reputations entirely, especially when it comes to a Holy Artifact, a thing capable of corrupting numerous righteous individuals.

Master Wuji, upon hearing this, showed an indifferent expression.

He naturally understood Yin Henzi’s thoughts and said flatly, ”Since the customer can’t trust my integrity in business, let’s cancel this deal.”

After a pause, Master Wuji decisively suggested, ”Attendants, return the ten thousand Light Core Crystals to this customer.”

As soon as his voice fell, a guard stepped forward and handed a storage ring to Yin Henzi.

Inside, of course, were the ten thousand Light Core Crystals previously given by Yin Henzi, which Master Wuji no longer accepted; he also didn’t intend to work on the matter anymore.

Instantly, the expression on Yin Henzi’s face changed again, fluctuating wildly.

Ultimately, he gritted his teeth and said, ”It’s alright for Master Wuji to talk alone to this little beast, but I must keep him within a hundred-meter radius of sight.”

If Master Wuji truly left, it’ll revert to the previous awkwardness.

Of course, Yin Henzi could also bet that Sikong Jing’s Spirit Platform Sea of Consciousness contained a Holy Artifact.

Eliminate him without the Blood Charm Demon Cat.

But currently, Yin Henzi couldn’t make up his mind, so he could only bite the bullet and agree.

As long as they remained in view, even if Master Wuji wanted to steal the Holy Artifact, he couldn’t possibly escape unnoticed.

”Alright...”

Master Wuji immediately accepted Yin Henzi’s condition and added, ”I know what you’re thinking, rest assured, if there’s any maneuvering, I’ll let you approach and monitor; for now, we are just talking.”

This assurance finally put Yin Henzi somewhat at ease.

Thus, apart from Master Wuji, even Yin Henzi and the Absolute Night Demon Wolf withdrew beyond a hundred meters from Sikong Jing.

At the center of the courtyard, only Sikong Jing and Master Wuji faced each other.

After a few moments, Master Wuji smiled and said to Sikong Jing, ”Young lad, you’re quite remarkable, managing to force an old monster into such a sorry state; I genuinely admire you.”

Sikong Jing returned Master Wuji’s gaze, surprised by his words.

Until now, all Sikong Jing knew was that the skeletal old man before him was invited by Yin Henzi to deal with him and seemed to be a reputable Emperor Artifact Master; yet now, he expressed admiration for him.

For a moment, Sikong Jing couldn’t figure out what the other party intended.

Is he trying to eliminate his guard, believing there is a Holy Artifact to take advantage of?

Seeing Sikong Jing remain silent, Master Wuji spoke again, ”Yin Henzi indeed informed me about everything you did to him, and frankly, I don’t think you relied on an Emperor Artifact, nor do I believe it was a Holy Artifact...”
