Berserk God of War

Chapter 1248: Chapter 1248: Did You Come Back to Die?

The tone of the women from the Fox Sect was urgent, yet filled with expectation.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Sikong Jing immediately understood their intent.

To completely resolve the matter of Yin Henzi’s death, Changqing Venerable must intervene. With his status as a mere servant disciple named Sikong Buwang, he certainly couldn’t make direct contact.

Therefore, in their eyes, he must rely on Master Wuji.

Everyone knew he was now considered a lifesaver for Master Wuji. As long as he mentioned it, Master Wuji would certainly help.

Sikong Jing thought about this, then replied with a smile, “No, I’ve been cultivating at Master Wuji’s home these past few days and forgot about this matter.”

With these words, the two Fox Sect women opened their mouths wide, their small faces suddenly turning ghostly pale.

“Then, then… how will you face the judgment of the Fox Sect Master?”

One of the Fox Sect women asked anxiously, “Renyou Fox General has reported everything to the Fox Sect Master. He’s furious. If Changqing Venerable doesn’t send someone to back you up, you and we will all die.”

Her voice became almost a scream as she finished speaking.

The second Fox Sect woman also frantically added, “Ren Hu said that you would certainly be able to bring Changqing Venerable here, which is why the Fox Sect Master hasn’t immediately killed us in rage. And now… now you say you forgot about this matter.”

The two women were driven to madness, thinking that Sikong Buwang had been hiding for so long, waiting for Changqing Venerable’s arrival.

However, he hadn’t contacted Changqing Venerable and swaggered back.

Was he here to court death?

If you want to die, go die, but don’t drag us down with you.

At this moment, the hearts of the two Fox Sect women twisted into a mess while Sikong Jing calmly asked, “What did Master Wuji say? He mentioned he would help us solve this issue.”

He genuinely didn’t know this, having been in closed cultivation and not seen Master Wuji.

Just upon leaving the Secret Realm, Lao Chun tricked him into coming here…

Although Sikong Jing knew he was being deceived, he could have directly gone to the Emperor’s Castle to ask for clarification. Yet, as the saying goes, ‘Face the tiger’s den head-on,’ so he could only ask the two women for the details now.

“You don’t even know this?” The two Fox Sect women were nearly driven mad, staring straight at Sikong Jing.

Sikong Jing shrugged and replied, “I don’t know, I haven’t seen Master Wuji for nearly half a month.”

Upon hearing this, the two Fox Sect women almost collapsed,

“You don’t know anything and assume Master Wuji took care of it, so you just came back?”

“How thick is your nerve?

“Two days ago, after the Fox Sect Master arrived, he went straight to the Emperor’s Castle. Regarding the death of Yin Zhun Zun, the stance of the Fox Sect Master and the Wunian Saint Sect was firm, even though the mistake was initially Yin Zhun Zun’s, but he was already dead.

“Thus, Master Wuji’s attitude was: no more debts owed on either side.”

“If it weren’t for Master Wuji’s significant reputation and extensive connections, it probably wouldn’t have been so simple.”

As the first Fox Sect woman said this, the second continued, “It’s said that at that time, Master Wuji mentioned you, but the Fox Sect Master’s attitude was: the matters of Wunian Saint Sect’s disciples are none of his concern.”

“How Master Wuji wants to thank you is his matter; how Wunian Saint Sect wants to punish you is Wunian Saint Sect’s matter.”

“Moreover, the Fox Sect Master has given an ultimatum for Master Wuji to hand you over.”

“If not handed over within three days, the Fox Sect Master will personally lead people to search the entire Emperor’s Limitless Castle, and now it’s the second day of the ultimatum. We thought you’d informed Changqing Venerable before coming back.”

“And yet, you didn’t even know about the ultimatum?”

With the urgent voices of the two Fox Sect women, Sikong Jing finally understood Wunian Saint Sect’s stance on this matter.

However, he could mostly have guessed it, as such conduct was very typical of Wunian Saint Sect.

If Sikong Jing delayed leaving the retreat for one more day, Master Wuji would definitely have returned to the Secret Realm to clarify things with him, and yet Sikong Jing stepped out on the second day of the ultimatum, and Lao Chun, knowing about the ultimatum, deliberately put him in a deadly situation.

However, Sikong Jing was still unconcerned. He nodded and said, “So that’s how it is, I understand now.”

This indifferent and fearless attitude exasperated the two Fox Sect women.

One of the Fox Sect women suddenly said through gritted teeth, “What do you mean you understand? We’re almost going to be killed because of you, do you know? Now we’ll let you go back. Find a way to contact Changqing Venerable through Master Wuji.”

To them, not letting Sikong Jing leave was death, and letting him go at least provided a sliver of hope.

Unfortunately, just as the woman finished speaking, a haunting female voice suddenly arose from the center of the manor, “Sikong Buwang is here? Bring him to me at once, or else the Spirit Platform will be shattered, leading to death.”

The voice was filled with a terrifying killing intent, almost causing the two female disciples of the Fox Sect to collapse to the ground.

Because this voice belonged to the Fox Sect Master, she had already noticed Sikong Buwang’s arrival, and he couldn’t leave anymore.

Seeing the two women’s legs trembling, Sikong Jing could only calmly reassure them, “Can’t leave now, accompany me to meet the Fox Sect Master.”

Upon hearing this, the two women’s eyes turned red, thinking to themselves: meeting her, is this Sikong Buwang confident or foolish?

In any case, they couldn’t resist, and could only half-drag Sikong Jing towards the center of the manor.

It was still the central courtyard where Sikong Jing had previously stayed.

As soon as the three stepped in, they could feel a murderous atmosphere, with everyone from Wanbing City Wunian Fox Sect present, including Renyou the Fox General, who now stood pale to the side.

And in the central part of the courtyard, a woman clad in snow-white garments, who seemed to have just entered middle age, sat solemnly.

Her expression was cold, as if covered by a layer of frost.

Beside her, there were a few women dressed in Fox Sect attire, both old and young, each with a look full of killing intent.

Upon seeing Sikong Jing enter, the snow-clad middle-aged woman spoke hauntingly, “You are Sikong Buwang?”

Sikong Jing nonchalantly clasped his hands and replied, “Sikong Buwang, greets the Fox Sect Master.”

He did not bow his head and even maintained an indifferent gaze as he met the Fox Sect Master’s eyes.

At this moment, the gaze of the Fox Sect Master was sharp to the extreme, as if trying to see through Sikong Jing. Such a gaze would be unbearable for ordinary people, yet Sikong Jing remained unfazed.

Master of Ten Thousand Beasts fears no pressure, nor any gaze.

While being observed, Sikong Jing silently activated the Absolute Night Wolf King’s meridian, hiding all other meridians and powers within himself, leaving no trace of anything unusual.

He was now Sikong Buwang, a disciple of the Wunian Saint Sect.

Just as the two locked eyes, an old woman standing by the Fox Sect Master’s side suddenly shouted, “Sikong Buwang, how dare you display such audacity, making the Fox Sect Master wait for you two days…”

Although the ultimatum was for three days, the Fox Sect Master had a reason to demand Sikong Jing’s immediate appearance, since he was just a minor disciple.

And those words, of course, were meant to intimidate him.
