Berserk God of War

Chapter 1602: Chapter 1602: Domineering Teng Mansion, Another Headache

Hearing this date, Ba Lie Venerable’s eyes flashed with cold light repeatedly, then he took Ying Ying and bade farewell.

Next, they naturally had to find a way to win over the Earth Decision Makers who supported Sikong Jing before.

Nanfeng, who remained, said: ”Dongwu, how do you think we can use the Qianwang Holy Tower to trap that old hag Ba Lian to death?”

At these words, Dongwu’s expression changed dramatically.

He stared at Nanfeng and said, ”The Soul Dominator’s Heir Sikong Jing, as long as he hands over the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Array, he’s just a minor non-combatant nobody. But Ba Lian is a peak Emperor Martial Stage expert, you better not act recklessly...”

After saying this, he directly asked him to leave!

Nanfeng was driven out, but he covered his face and shouted, ”Damn it, self-righteous, let her slap you and see?”

To this, Dongwu naturally ignored him.

Just as Murong Jianyun said, he did everything for the benefit of Overlord Commerce, calculating gains and losses coldly. He disliked and looked down on Sikong Jing but wasn’t deliberately targeting Ba Lian Venerable.

Because the latter is crucial to the interests of Overlord Commerce.

Like now, he wants the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Array in Sikong Jing’s hands, wants him to face the Qianwang Holy Tower alone, but cannot allow Ba Lian Venerable to cause too much trouble, to maximize benefits.

...

On Sikong Jing’s side, everyone had already left Batian Inner City on the Yao Residence’s Divine Shuttle Ship, and they came straight to a courtyard in the outer city where the Yao Residence’s people were staying...

This place was specially for various prestigious guests coming to shop here, naturally, it’s enormous.

When they heard that Duanmu Chun smoothly recovered his Great Dominator Technique position, people from the Sky Wolf Team and the Nu Hua Team cheered continuously.

However, when they heard they had to vote again, everyone became silent and tense.

If they lost the next vote, Sikong Jing would have to face the Qianwang Holy Tower alone. Even if he passed the first hurdle without Overlord Commerce as a backer, he would still be hunted in the Central Plains.

Too many who want to curry favor with or bootlick the Qianwang Holy Tower would keep appearing to kill him.

In response, Gongyang Ying felt confident and said, ”With the three votes of the Great Heaven Decision, we only need one more Earth Decision Maker to win.”

However, just as he finished speaking, Beicang appeared. She had just returned from the Ba Yun Secret Realm.

The news she brought was: those three votes were merely rewards for Ba Lian Venerable reaching the Emperor Martial Stage Peak, and they wouldn’t vote again in the next discussion. This had already been clearly communicated to Dongwu by the Great Heaven Decision.

At the same time, Beicang also brought a heavy warning...

If Sikong Jing fails in the voting and if Ba Lian wants to act recklessly, the Great Heaven Decision will personally take action to suppress.

Hearing Beicang’s words, Ba Lian Venerable angrily cursed: ”That old bastard Murong, he just mediates everywhere, calming this side and comforting that side. Who the hell doesn’t know what he’s thinking?”

She certainly felt that Murong Jianyun was simply playing the placating game, not having the decisiveness of the Great Heaven Decision at all.

Especially when considering taking personal action to suppress her, it was simply infuriating.

Regarding Ba Lian Venerable’s ranting, Beicang could only smile wryly.

She definitely wouldn’t disclose the detailed discussions she had with Murong Jianyun, only gently saying, ”In any case, you must secure more votes before the revote.”

Just as she finished speaking, Dongwu, the Leader, suddenly sent a message with a timeline.

In ten days!

Now, they must secure more votes within ten days, and everyone turned to look at Sikong Jing with full pressure.

”Ten more days, that’s fine.”

Sikong Jing casually replied, giving everyone a reassuring expression.

The same goes, even if the vote failed, he didn’t care, it was merely facing the Qianwang Holy Tower in Overlord City.

He clearly had ways to cope...

At this moment, Beicang again proposed the idea of going out to chat with Ba Lian Venerable.

However, Ba Lian Venerable refused, saying, ”Tomorrow, I still need to settle these kids in my Teng Mansion, and I have a lot to say to Ajing.”

Upon hearing this, Sikong Jing’s previously calm face suddenly turned ugly, and his head started to ache.

Ba Lian Venerable would surely ask about the real whereabouts of the Soul Dominator Venerable.

Until now, he still didn’t know how to deal with it...

Compared to the Qianwang Holy Tower’s inquisition, this matter was the most crucial to him right now.

Revealing the truth would definitely lead Ba Lian Venerable to rush into the terrifying Canghai Wujiang, but not telling the truth would cause her immense pain.

In the end, Beicang departed.

And Ba Lian Venerable promptly made everyone from the Yao Residence board the Divine Shuttle Ship.

Next, she would have the Yao Residence’s people stay in Teng Mansion, which was the home of the Soul Dominator Venerable and naturally her home too.

Thus, they quickly arrived at the huge mansion located in Batian Outer City, which was Teng Mansion!

After the Divine Shuttle Ships landed, Ba Lian Venerable explained, ”This is the home of that old bastard Soul Dominator and me. Because we are both Venerables, the territory is vast, but due to our personalities, not many people live here. Feel free to stay anywhere.”

After explaining, she looked at Sikong Jing and said, ”Ajing, come with me.”

Sikong Jing smiled wryly at Duanmu Chun, who returned the same helpless smile...

In the end, Sikong Jing had to follow Ba Lian Venerable.

The two walked quietly along the corridors of Teng Mansion, where weeds were overgrown as if no one had tended to them in ages. After walking for a while, they didn’t see many servants, despite being located in the bustling Batian Outer City, it was like a deserted village.

In the decades following the Soul Dominator Venerable’s disappearance, Ba Lian Venerable’s mindset was like the current Teng Mansion, messy and chaotic.

Gradually, Ba Lian Venerable stopped in front of a rockery.

She turned her back to Sikong Jing, staring at the rockery ahead, and suddenly her shoulders began to shake crazily, which made Sikong Jing’s heart tremble uncontrollably, filled with a strong sense of bitterness.

Ba Lian Venerable was nervous now, and perhaps her face, though turned away from him, was already covered in tears.

Finally, a hoarse voice came from Ba Lian Venerable’s mouth: ”Ajing, where did that old bastard end up going?”

Even though he was prepared, Sikong Jing’s expression still froze, he didn’t know how to respond.

”I know that old bastard must have told you never to tell me because the place he went is extremely dangerous. He’s afraid I’ll rush to find him, but I want to know. I really want to know...”

As Sikong Jing remained silent, Ba Lian Venerable’s voice trembled: ”Decades, so many decades have passed!”

In response, Sikong Jing still remained silent, continuously struggling internally.

Suddenly, Ba Lian Venerable turned around to look at him, and indeed, her entire face was covered in tears.

Her eyes were red as she said: ”He said when he left that he was going to a place to pursue the Holy Martial Stage, and that he’d definitely come back once he reaches it. But that’s all nonsense. Does he think I’m a fool?”

”His Teng family has had Holy Martial Stage in its history.”

”Others might not know, but as his wife, how could I not know that his Martial Arts Talent is immeasurably strong, achieving the Holy Martial Stage is only a matter of time.”

”What is he pursuing, why does he have to pursue it?”

”He wouldn’t tell me, just wouldn’t tell me. Why would he hide it from me and then disappear?”

As she spoke to this point, Ba Lian Venerable was both angry and anxious, in a state of near collapse, anyone who saw it would feel endless heartache.

And Sikong Jing silently thought in his heart:

For brotherhood, for saving Grandpa Su, he left, and for the safety of his family, he could only hide the truth.

And this is the Soul Dominator Venerable, seen as crazy by the world.

He didn’t know how to evaluate it, maybe no one did anything wrong, but it certainly left Ba Lian Venerable suffering.

”Ajing, tell me why this happened?”

At this, Ba Lian Venerable suddenly approached Sikong Jing, looking at him with deep pleading in her eyes.
