Berserk God of War

Chapter 1736: Chapter 1736: Not Mindless, but Fearless

Shi Douxing just mentioned that he wanted to meet the person bold enough to destroy the Shitian Court, and the main character came right away.

And how is he so fearless? To say it openly in front of all these people at the banquet?

Aren’t he afraid that someone might secretly inform Willow Leaf Saint Manor?

Indeed, everyone at the banquet harbors many grievances against Willow Leaf Saint Manor, but who knows if someone might be tempted by Willow Leaf Saint Manor’s heavy rewards and go to snitch?

Who knows how many people sincerely admire Shi Douxing inside?

Sikong Jing saying it so openly, this matter is almost equivalent to being exposed.

However, the crowd does not know that Sikong Jing is not afraid of anyone snitching.

Willow Leaf Saint Manor already knew it was him, and he also wasn’t afraid of them knowing that he came to discuss the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Array with Shi Douxing, knowing it will only make Willow Leaf Saint Manor more anxious.

Yet Sikong Jing did not care either, if you don’t want me to negotiate business with the Nidao Sect, then hand over Su Yuexi and others entirely.

Moreover, Sikong Jing deliberately said it out loud here for another purpose.

Just to see how Shi Douxing would react.

If he truly was in a life-or-death feud with Willow Leaf Saint Manor, he would immediately order this news to be blocked...

Therefore, after speaking openly, Sikong Jing looked calmly at Shi Douxing.

At this time, Shi Douxing’s expression was equally shocked. A dignified Emperor level expert hadn’t shown such an expression for a long time.

Soon after, he suddenly reacted... Boom!

A terrifying True Qi exploded from Shi Douxing, instantly forming a barrier, sealing off the entire banquet hall. Then he sternly declared, ”From this moment on, no one is allowed to leave the hall.”

In response, Sikong Jing immediately smiled; as he expected, Shi Douxing directly sealed the entire hall.

This was to protect himself, preventing anyone from snitching.

Even though Shi Douxing and Grandpa Su had an old relationship, even helping each other when they were young,

people change. With just Old Fat Head’s intelligence, Sikong Jing couldn’t determine Shi Douxing’s real intentions.

That’s why Sikong Jing threw out two explosive clues at once: the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Array and the destruction of the Shitian Court, to confirm if Shi Douxing was worthy of a long-term collaboration...

With Shi Douxing’s powerful closure, the scene had quieted down unknowingly.

Everyone stared hard at Sikong Jing, still unable to digest the shock and surprise from just now.

After a while, Shi Douxing came to his senses and asked, ”Great Judge Sikong, are you trying to use the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Array to exchange for my protection against Willow Leaf Saint Manor in Willow Leaf City?”

He slowly voiced this question, feeling it was surprisingly like a pie falling from the sky.

But this pie isn’t easy to eat. With the Nidao Sect’s current strength, it’s almost impossible to protect Sikong Jing in Willow Leaf City.

So without waiting for Sikong Jing’s answer, he pondered and then said, ”Great Judge Sikong, I’m afraid I can’t protect you, but I can lead you and the entire Batian Branch out of Willow Leaf City, back to Overlord City.”

The implication is: all he can achieve is ensuring everyone in the Batian Branch returns to Overlord City safely.

Regarding Shi Douxing’s words, Sikong Jing was reassured at heart.

Now, he could basically see what kind of person Shi Douxing was, unlike someone like Ye Wushen who would definitely make promises to get the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Array, but Shi Douxing did not.

Instead, he admitted he couldn’t offer protection...

Thinking of this, Sikong Jing glanced around slightly and said, ”Sect Master Shi, this doesn’t seem to be the place to talk.”

Shi Douxing was startled for a moment before nodding immediately. ”Everyone listen up, now follow me to our Nidao Sect residence in Willow Leaf City. No one is allowed to leave or send messages...”

With Shi Douxing’s orders, the small and medium forces naturally nodded repeatedly, following Shi Douxing’s lead away.

During this time, Shi Douxing’s mind was focused on everyone.

Only when they arrived at the Nidao Sect’s residence did he stop the lock.

But the array barrier was already activated, still giving no one the chance to send a message out, ensuring Sikong Jing’s non-exposure.

Soon after, Shi Douxing invited Sikong Jing to come alone into the residence’s hall.

This major business negotiation officially began.

They sat facing each other, and Shi Douxing started speaking first, ”Great Judge Sikong, firstly I want to know if you truly have the authority to sell the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Array?”

This is most important, as if Sikong Jing had no authority to sell, there is no point in the negotiation.

Shi Douxing would directly send him away, coming here offering a pie in the sky without anything to back it, isn’t that just playing around?

Under Shi Douxing’s deep gaze, Sikong Jing calmly said, ”I am the Soul Dominator’s Heir...”

These few words caused Shi Douxing’s body to tremble slightly but did not surprise him much, as he had considered this possibility on the way to the residence. The Nidao Sect understands some matters about the Soul Dominator’s Heir.

Since he is the Soul Dominator’s Heir, naturally, he could sell items.

After taking a deep breath, Shi Douxing said, ”Great Judge Sikong, you just publicly discussed the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Array, even openly declaring you destroyed the Shitian Court, isn’t that a bit too, too...”

Before he could finish, Sikong Jing interrupted with a laugh, ”Too reckless, right?”

In Shi Douxing’s view, Sikong Jing indeed seemed reckless; even if wanting to negotiate with him, it should be done in private, how could it be openly declared in front of so many people, causing him to be on guard against any transmission all the way here.

Such reckless behavior really made Shi Douxing disregard him a bit.

Yet Sikong Jing’s words left Shi Douxing amazed — since the former knew this was inappropriate, why did he still do it?

”Willow Leaf Saint Manor already knew it was me; they just don’t dare openly deal with me,” Sikong Jing slowly explained, resolving the doubts in Shi Douxing’s mind and widening his old eyes once more.

He mumbled, ”Willow Leaf Saint Manor already knew, then their city-wide search was...”

”For appearances’ sake.”

Sikong Jing quickly interjected, further explaining, ”In other words, Willow Leaf Saint Manor has no way to deal with me, which means I do not need any protection from Sect Master Shi, nor do I need Sect Master Shi to take me away from Willow Leaf City.”

”I am purely here to discuss business with Sect Master Shi.”

With Sikong Jing’s explanation, Shi Douxing felt as though his mind couldn’t process it.

Not needing protection, then what’s the purpose of coming to discuss business with him? This explanation doesn’t make sense at all... and he was still somewhat incredulous that in Willow Leaf City, Willow Leaf Saint Manor couldn’t deal with him?

Next, Sikong Jing did not keep anything hidden, he directly revealed everything...

Of course, he didn’t say that he and Su Yuexi were already married, only mentioning that Murong Jianyun sent him to pursue Su Old Demon’s granddaughter, which then led to a series of events, including his negotiations at Willow Leaf Saint Manor which he also disclosed.

As he listened, Shi Douxing’s face became increasingly shocked...

At first, thinking Sikong Jing was foolish, he was now utterly dumbfounded.

This young Great Judge Sikong was incredibly fierce, and then he remembered various legends about the Soul Dominator’s Heir, a figure who even dared to kill Pei Kuang’s son — why wouldn’t he be fierce?

Finally, after Sikong Jing finished speaking, Shi Douxing earnestly asked, ”Then what does Sikong need from our Nidao Sect?”
