My Silly, Sweet Wife

King Qi looked down at King Qin from his high vantage point, a feeling of control over the world.

This feeling made King Qi exceedingly pleased with himself.

King Qin, however, had calmed down at this moment and gently sighed, ”Qi Yinglong, have you become like this because of the Holy Envoy?”

”Haha, that’s right!” King Qi had no intention of hiding it.

At this point, there was no need to hide anything.

Because King Qin was about to become a dead man, what was the use of hiding from a dead man?

Hearing King Qi personally admit it, King Qin sighed, ”Qi Yinglong, once, relying on the Holy Envoy of the Holy Temple, I held no one in regard, but now I finally understand, we are merely tools in their eyes.”

”I served the Holy Envoy loyally for so many years. Back then, when I killed the Netherworld Emperor, I killed so many people and even dug a pit for ten thousand corpses. For what? Haha, indeed, he helped me kill the Netherworld Emperor and become King Qin, but what of it? He just needed dead people because the Holy Temple needs to absorb souls periodically, or else its power would gradually fade and become weak.”

”Back then, to gain the support of the Holy Temple, I killed countless people in cold blood, but to them, I had neither merit nor toil. Yet I didn’t expect that when they decided to abandon someone, it was so ruthless without the slightest hesitation. I believe, since they can easily abandon me, sooner or later, they will abandon you just as easily.”

King Qin had lost all hope.

King Qi, however, was utterly dismissive, ”Qin Tianqi, what’s the use of saying all this? Now that the Holy Envoy has chosen me, once you are dead, tomorrow will be the death of the Son of the Netherworld Emperor. Haha, by then, no one will be able to stop me from dominating. I’m talking this much with you today only because of our mutual support and fighting over the years. So, how is it? Should I act myself or will you do it yourself?”

”Rest assured, after your death, I will destroy your Qin Palace and let it go to hell with you! Since you say the Holy Temple needs souls, then after your death, remember to complain to the Holy Envoy!” King Qi grinned, his smile hideous.

King Qin knew there was no longer any escape for him, and gently shook his head, ”Very well, if that’s the case, then I will kill myself!”

”However, I hope that after my death, you can spare those under my command. We have fought for several decades, and I once thought you would ultimately lose to me, yet I never expected that I would become the one defeated by you. But let me tell you, I’m not convinced, you know? Without the Holy Envoy, you, Qi Yinglong, would be nothing, and that is precisely why, in the eyes of the Holy Envoy, you are also nothing!”

”Haha, do you think victory is in your grasp? I assure you, the Son of the Netherworld Emperor is not as easy to deal with as you imagine. You can indeed kill me now, but to kill Ye Guichen so easily is absolutely impossible. If it were so easy to kill that boy, he would never have come to the Hidden Gate, nor would he currently occupy the Dan God Sect, calling himself king. Moreover, if it were truly easy to kill that boy, the Holy Envoy would definitely not rely on others. Although I haven’t figured out the reason, I’m certain there’s definitely something fishy going on.”

”Qi Yinglong, before I die, I want to tell you, don’t be used as someone else’s tool, ending up dying in vain!”

King Qi frowned, ”Qin Tianqi, did you discover something?”

King Qin let out a bitter smile, ”Even if I did discover something, how could I easily tell you? Haha, after all, it is at your hands that I am going to die.”

King Qi’s expression turned somber, ”If you tell me what you know, I can let you die more swiftly, otherwise, I’ll make sure you can’t live or die peacefully!”

King Qin stared into King Qi’s eyes, utterly fearless.

He knew that resistance was impossible today.

Perhaps, to die swiftly was also a good choice.

After hesitating for a moment, King Qin slowly nodded, ”Qi Yinglong, in theory, after fighting for a lifetime, I shouldn’t tell you this discovery. But I know, without the Holy Temple, I wouldn’t die so easily. Haha, if you have what it takes, you could resist the Holy Temple, but I feel you don’t have the skill.”

”To be honest, there’s a massive secret hidden within the Holy Temple, though I don’t know what it is, it’s absolutely intricately linked with the Hidden Gate.”

”A secret?” King Qi was stunned, ”How are you sure there’s a secret in the Holy Temple?”

”I actually discovered this secret twenty-three years ago. It’s just that I wasn’t sure back then, but after over two decades of observation, especially after seeing the Holy Envoy again, I increasingly feel that there is an earth-shattering secret hidden within.”

”Over the years, while focusing on dealing with you and aiming to become the Netherworld Emperor, I specifically sent people to investigate the Netherworld Mountain Temple. Although my people didn’t uncover any specific results, one thing is clear, the Holy Temple must absorb a large number of souls periodically, creating a massacre.”

”Originally, I thought they would also have sect forces slaughter each other, but later discovered I was wrong. All the Holy Envoys have terrifying power, yet it’s as if they’ve been sealed by some strange force, and they have no way to handle those surpassing Foundation Establishment level strength.”
