Berserk God of War

Chapter 1413: Chapter 1413: Venerable Ba Lian, Heart Broken

”Hmm, that knocked a bit much.”

”So it drew great attention from both the top and bottom of Sacred Canggu Peak...”

”That’s why I said being rescued by experts within the area of Sacred Canggu Peak shouldn’t be a problem.”

Sikong Jing nodded, as he still felt that he knocked a bit too much.

Initially, nine or ten knocks would have been enough to catch the attention of Sacred Canggu Peak, and it wouldn’t have been so serious and frightening now.

Duanmu Chun twitched his mouth, completely bewildered, with only thoughts in his mind...

Twelve knocks, damn, twelve knocks!

Luckily, Duanmu Chun didn’t know that Sikong Jing actually knocked eighteen times, otherwise he might have fainted from shock.

At this moment, Zhang Duiyin asked somewhat dazedly, ”Twelve knocks, is that a lot?”

Weng Ting took a deep breath and replied first, ”East Spirit City isn’t very far from Canggu City, so I know the record for Tie Cang’s Wuming Stone is thirteen knocks... It’s said that even Canggu Peak Master only knocked eleven times in his youth.”

At this, Weng Ting’s voice was a bit dry, her face full of bitter smiles and shock.

Sikong Jing was truly terrifying, how exactly did he manage it?

When preparing for the Soul Snatching Battle, Duanmu Chun recommended Sikong Jing to her, saying there would surely be a big surprise.

And the Soul Snatching Battle indeed delivered continuous surprises, leaving one dazzled.

Now, whether Sikong Jing spoke the truth or lies, it was all more than just surprising, but terrifying.

The entire hall of the Yao Residence was silent once again.

The Zhang siblings were at a loss for words, Duanmu Chun’s mouth twitched repeatedly, Yao Yulou remained silent...

At this moment, Sikong Jing said again, ”However, there’s a bit of a small problem regarding this matter in Canggu City.”

”What?” Duanmu Chun’s heart tugged slightly, quickly asking.

Then Sikong Jing detailed the situation with Young Master Pei 106, Pei Yuzheng.

This Young Master Pei 106 intended to trouble Sacred Canggu Peak, and because he accidentally knocked twelve times, also let the sound of the Canggu Dragon Roar reverberate throughout the city, thus angering Qianwang Holy Tower.

As for the Soldier Killing Nine Stars Map, Sikong Jing didn’t elaborate for now, as it was too troublesome to explain.

Thud...

After hearing this, Duanmu Chun sat back heavily into his chair, rubbing his aching head wildly, asking wordlessly, ”Little Sikong, how did you end up clashing with Qianwang Holy Tower? Even the lies involve Qianwang Holy Tower?”

Qianwang Holy Tower is a super nuisance, no one wants to provoke such a terrifying entity.

”It was a coincidence, I only learned of Young Master Pei 106’s existence when I left Canggu City.”

This time Sikong Jing told the absolute truth; when having Cang Yun Sword Dragon curse, he didn’t even know what 106 was.

With bitter smiles, Duanmu Chun didn’t know what to say for a moment.

At this moment, Yao Yulou slowly spoke, ”Canggu City is a minor matter, if Young Master Pei 106 is outdone, who can he blame?”

”More importantly, Sikong Jing is one of Overlord Commerce, can’t we protect him? Would Qianwang Holy Tower really revenge over such a minor issue? At most, just spar with Young Master Pei 106 again.”

With his words, Yang Yi and the other three understood immediately, their eyes flashing with strong battle intent.

So what about Qianwang Holy Tower?

Overlord Commerce isn’t weak, and if the younger generation loses, would Qianwang Holy Tower really send strong people to kill?

Unless they’re really shameless.

Yet Sikong Jing unexpectedly looked towards Yao Yulou, knowing well that the latter was from Qianwang Holy Tower.

Actually, Sikong Jing already believed that Yao Yulou sincerely betrayed Qianwang Holy Tower.

Wanting to be good to Jiang Wanyou...

But he still needed one last test, to see if Yao Yulou would report what he just said to Qianwang Holy Tower... If he did, then he’s the pinnacle of hypocrisy.

If so, Sikong Jing would immediately take Jiang Wanyou and Hua Meixi away and expose Yao Yulou’s true face.

Of course, this might expose Sikong Buwang’s matter.

But Sikong Jing felt it was worth betting on Yao Yulou’s character.

Conversely, if Yao Yulou didn’t report this, then Sikong Jing could completely trust him, and fully disclose to Jiang Wanyou, letting the couple open up their hearts completely.

”Sigh...”

Just as Sikong Jing’s thoughts were spinning, Duanmu Chun heavily sighed.

”Brother Yao makes sense, but now I’m no longer the Duanmu Dabajue of the East Dominator Branch.”

”How can I get Overlord Commerce to protect Little Sikong then?”

If he were still the Duanmu Dabajue, even if Qianwang Holy Tower came, he could boldly resist, but he’s not.

His own future is uncertain at this point.

To this, Sikong Jing asked puzzled, ”Duanmu Dabajue, don’t you still have Venerable Ba Lian behind you? Why did her senior suddenly lose power, and abruptly remove you from the Dabajue position?”

Sikong Jing had been puzzled about this ever since learning about the Dabajue change; what made Venerable Ba Lian’s fall so dramatic?

After all, this was nearly handing over all of Central Plains East’s business to Ba Lie Venerable, and now Duanmu Chun doesn’t even have a new appointment confirmed.

Duanmu Chun sighed again, somewhat helplessly.

”Venerable Ba Lian retired; she doesn’t want to manage Overlord Commerce anymore.”

”Back when you were taken by Yin Henzi, I even wanted to ask Venerable Ba Lian to demand you from Wunian Saint Sect, but her senior’s reply was... she doesn’t want to manage anything anymore, her heart has died.”

These words puzzled Sikong Jing and others once again, what does it mean for one’s heart to die?

Moreover, even retiring should at least arrange for people like Duanmu Chun who served her loyally, yet she suddenly dropped everything, isn’t that too irresponsible?

If it was due to a tragic defeat against Ba Lie Venerable, it would be understandable, but how can one’s heart die just like that?

”Because she has given up hope of finding Soul Dominator Venerable.”

These words made Sikong Jing understand a bit more.

After leaving the Soul Dominator Secret Realm, Soul Dominator Venerable disappeared without a trace. Venerable Ba Lian was in love with him and, having searched for so many years without finding him, she suddenly lost hope.

”Why give up hope so suddenly?” Zhang Duiyin was full of confusion, it seemed too sudden.

Before Duanmu Chun could answer, Yang Yi suddenly spoke, ”Because... of me.”

Everyone was dumbfounded, looking at Yang Yi strangely, how did Venerable Ba Lian’s despair relate to Yang Yi?

The two were like heaven and earth, they couldn’t possibly be related in eight lifetimes.

”Because Yang Yi obtained the legendary Soul Dominator Venerable’s inheritance inside the Soul Dominator Secret Realm.”

Duanmu Chun immediately explained; only he, Venerable Ba Lian, and Yang Yi knew this matter currently.

But now he explained to everyone...

”Soul Dominator Venerable left five Soul Dominator Secret Realms in the Central Plains north, south, east, west, and central. Only with the Soul Dominator Order could one enter, and there was a chance to receive the Soul Dominator Inheritance inside... You all know this.”

Following Duanmu Chun’s words, Sikong Jing, Weng Ting, and the others nodded slightly, then were filled with surprise.

Except for Sikong Jing, Weng Ting and the Zhang siblings had all attempted the Soul Dominator Secret Realm, many talents from the East Dominator had challenged it, but it turned out a non-combatant like Yang Yi received the inheritance, it was simply unbelievable.

”The Soul Dominator Secret Realm is the key to finding Soul Dominator Venerable.”

”But now, the central and southern secret realms have been inherited by others without any trace of Soul Dominator Venerable. Finally, Yang Yi obtained the eastern inheritance, but still, there’s no clue...”

”So Venerable Ba Lian despaired, lost heart!”

Everyone finally understood, but Zhang Duiyin asked again... aren’t there still western and northern secret realms?
