Berserk God of War

Chapter 277: Chapter 277 Everyone Has Secrets

Instantly, Young Master Qian’s face filled with astonishment, and blood cascaded down from his head like volcanic lava.

”Wh-, why?”

After he spoke, Young Master Qian collapsed to the ground, dead.

At that moment, Sikong Jing slowly sheathed his knife and said to Ning Jingjing, ”It’s not safe to stay here for long, let’s hurry and leave.”

Ning Jingjing nodded and was the first to flash away.

Sikong Jing, on the other hand, retrieved the Golden Soul Palace and the storage ring left by Young Master Qian.

Finally, his gaze settled on items that had fallen out of Gu Wei’s storage ring.

Among them was a Student Token belonging to the Long Night Star Palace.

It seemed that inside the Holy Dragon Palace’s Task Hall, he had seen a mission that involved commandeering the Student Tokens and points rewards of Xingluo Palace.

Thus, after taking the Token and all of Light Crystal’s from Gu Wei, Sikong Jing boarded the Thunder Winged Dragon Snake and flashed away.

Soon after, the guards and catchpoles from the Long Night Imperial City arrived at the Qianbei Building.

When they saw the bodies all over the ground, each of them was shocked.

”This is the son of the Qian Family, Qian Jingsui.”

”He was killed by Knights of the Thunder Winged Dragon Snake from the Xuantian Third Realm, certainly the work of a master from the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace or an Inner Palace Student. This matter is beyond our jurisdiction; we should just notify the Qian Family.”

Having said that, the guards and catchpoles did not dare to touch anything in the Qianbei Building, be it objects or bodies, and directly informed the Qian Family instead.

As always, the strife between the Long Night Star Palace and the Holy Dragon Palace was something the Long Night Empire couldn’t manage. If they were regular students or apprentices, some intervention might be possible, but those capable of employing the Thunder Winged Dragon Snake of the Xuantian Third Realm could not possibly be just any regular students.

Even when the Qian Family arrived, they would have no choice but to accept the outcome.

If they knew that the one riding the Thunder Winged Dragon Snake was merely a little apprentice, they would probably have different thoughts.

But how could a mere apprentice of the Holy Dragon Palace ever mount a Demon Dragon?

...

By the time Su Zhenglong and the others were rescued and brought back to 99th Town, it was already deep into the night.

Accompanying them, of course, were Ning Jingjing and a thousand female warriors. At this time, however, Sikong Jing had long been waiting there, his Thunder Winged Dragon Snake much faster than Ning Jingjing and the others.

”Ajing...”

Seeing Sikong Jing unharmed and having returned to 99th Town before them, Su Zhenglong and Mei Xiaofang rushed over, thrilled.

”Father, Mother, it’s all right now, I’ve caused you worry again.”

Sikong Jing looked at them apologetically, and gave Su Yue Immortal beside them a slight nod to convey his regret.

But at this moment, the talents from Xia Country suddenly started to shout.

”Sikong Jing, it’s not just them you’ve startled. We’ve also suffered because of you; we even got slapped around!”

”That’s tolerable, but Young Master Qian and that Gu Wei clearly aren’t ordinary noblemen; they aren’t even afraid of the Long Night Black Burning Army. Even if we managed to escape this time, it means endless trouble for the future.”

”For the sake of our safety, you should hurry up and apologize to them, and stop causing trouble.”

It wasn’t just the Xia Country talent clamoring at Sikong Jing; the others were also constantly berating him, truly frightened by this ordeal.

When Sikong Jing refused to kneel earlier, they all thought they were going to die.

In their eyes, Sikong Jing must have been saved by General Ning, but the other party isn’t afraid of the Black Burning Army; otherwise, General Ning wouldn’t have come in a dress but would’ve come fully-armed leading soldiers to rescue them.

So now, of course, it means endless trouble. They didn’t want to go through this ever again.

”Sorry, there’s no one left to apologize to,” Sikong Jing said nonchalantly, looking at everyone with a slight smirk, ”Both Gu Wei and that Young Master Qian have been wiped out by General Ning and me, not a single one left.”

At these words, Xia Dalian’s eyes widened.

Others opened their mouths wide, staring at Sikong Jing in disbelief. Everyone is dead?

”Yes, all dead.”

”Of course, I’ll consider the feelings of my fellow villagers. Naturally, I have to silence everyone involved.”

Sikong Jing nodded and added under the stunned gaze of the crowd, ”Of course, if you go around talking about this, you might bring upon yourselves the disaster of being murdered, so make sure to keep this a tight secret.”

Once these words were uttered, the geniuses from the Xia Country shuddered violently. Sikong Jing was really too ruthless.

After giving instructions and finishing his threats, Sikong Jing threw out a pile of Light Crystals.

”It’s been alarming for everyone, go ahead and divide these Light Crystals.”

With Sikong Jing’s words, the crowd was once again dazzled by a large number of Light Crystals.

After their recent trip to Long Night Imperial City, they knew that the common currency here was Light Crystals. Without them, it was difficult to get by, and the amount before them was enough to make a small fortune.

However, upon recalling that they had just come out of the Canglong Small Domain, Sikong Jing had already become a wealthy man while they were still struggling.

Damn it, comparing oneself with others really does lead to despair!

Some time later, Sikong Jing was called away by Ning Jingjing.

The crowd was finally able to speak loudly again.

”What’s so great about that? It must have been General Ning who killed most of them. Sikong Jing just picked up what was left.”

”Exactly. Sikong Jing is quite strong, but he’s still a Spirit Martial Root.”

”Sooner or later, we will all surpass him.”

The group was indignant, but Sui Yu just sneered incessantly. To surpass Brother Sikong? They wouldn’t achieve it even in ten lifetimes.

And Sui Yu believed that the one who killed the most was definitely Brother Sikong.

The faint, yet unextinguished murderous intent on his body could prove everything, and Sui Yu was all too familiar with it.

Although he did not know what had happened, in the Long Night Empire, Brother Sikong had already begun to rise to prominence.

Everyone felt that the Invincible God General Sikong Jing, upon arriving in the world outside the Canglong Domain, would just become a tiny, ordinary person, but Sui Yu had never thought that way. Wherever Brother Sikong went, he was... dazzling like the stars.

Over here, Sikong Jing walked to the outskirts of the town with Ning Jingjing, and in front of them was also the Thunder Winged Dragon Snake.

After glancing at the dragon snake, Ning Jingjing said gently, ”Give me that storage ring from Young Master Qian.”

Hearing this, Sikong Jing handed it over without a second thought.

Ning Jingjing then passed a surge of True Qi over the storage ring.

After she was done, she took out an Innate Treasure that looked like a folded fan and infused it with True Qi as well.

Finally, she handed both items back to Sikong Jing, saying, ”I’ve erased Young Master Qian’s aura. You can use them freely now.”

”Thank you.”

Sikong Jing nodded in thanks. He had already checked inside the ring; there were weapons and Light Crystals, as well as Young Master Qian’s Innate Treasure, but he had not yet examined them closely.

All he knew was that it was a folded fan made of White Jade, of quite decent quality.

”You don’t have to worry about this Innate Treasure; it can be used.”

”This is the White Moon Fan produced by the Imperial City’s Treasure Pavilion. There are several dozen of them in total. As long as the aura is wiped, there should be no problem. Besides, its main use is for show.”

With Ning Jingjing’s words, Sikong Jing smiled. It seemed this Innate Treasure was not that useful.

Suddenly, the two fell silent.

After a good while, Ning Jingjing finally asked, ”Don’t you have anything you want to ask me?”

With a light smile on his face, Sikong Jing shook his head, ”Doesn’t everyone have their own secrets?”

This was what Ning Jingjing had told Elder Wei before when Elder Wei had wondered why Sikong Jing, despite having seen the Dark Winged Dragon Eagle, was told by Ning Jingjing not to ask. Therefore, now Sikong Jing returned these words to her.
