Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 1680: Chapter 388: Chen Jie: Han Dharma King, I’ve Come for You!_3

Liu Futong sneered, ”Don’t forget, I’m not the only elder of the Holy Sect in this world. There are also the Laughing Buddha and the Sea Dragon King!”

”Aren’t you afraid they’ll discover the truth and cause trouble for you, or have you become so inflated that you feel the Laughing Buddha and the Sea Dragon King can’t do anything to you?”

Liu Futong brought up two formidable figures.

Han Miaozhen chuckled at this moment, ”Laughing Buddha Peng Yingyu, who founded the Maitreya Sect, has now established an emperor and a nation. How could he have the time to meddle in our Zoroastrian Sect’s affairs?”

”As for the Sea Dragon King, he has declared kingship overseas and established the Divine Dragon Sect. He looks down upon our Holy Sect, so why would he get involved in this muddy water? After that battle years ago, weren’t our ties already severed?”

The battle Han Miaozhen referred to was the conflict between the Laughing Buddha and Han Shantong at Kunlun Peak. After their debate, they parted ways, and the Laughing Buddha left alone. The Sea Dragon King Fang Guozhen realized the Holy Sect was no longer the sect he once knew and left the Zoroastrian Sect with Elder Hu Lei Ming.

He ventured overseas and established the Divine Dragon Sect on an island, becoming a dominating power.

Now, both factions are flourishing and have no time to deal with the Zoroastrian Sect’s petty issues.

As Han Miaozhen spoke of past events, Liu Futong fell silent and finally said, ”No matter how heartless, the orphan of the Ming King must still be cared for.”

Han Miaozhen responded, ”Perhaps what you say is true, but now is not the time for that, don’t you think?”

Liu Futong looked at her and said, ”You really are determined to go down this path, Xiao Han. I watched you grow up. Back then, you followed Old Peng, always chattering away without a care. I knew you were a good girl then, but when did you become like this, to the point I can hardly recognize you?”

Hearing this, Han Miaozhen lowered her head and remained silent for a long time: ”People always change. I once thought that following Old Peng would lead to a good life, but when Old Peng left the Zoroastrian Sect, he didn’t take me with him, did he?”

”So, relying on others is unreliable. To succeed, you can only rely on yourself. Hasn’t what I’ve become today always been what you wanted?”

Han Miaozhen sounded quite aggrieved.

Upon hearing this, Liu Futong sighed, ”Ah... actually...”

”Alright, I know. I was too young back then, and Old Peng found it inconvenient to take me along, so he left me behind. Later, the sect resources were biased in my favor, including my position as Dharma King. I know many granted it for Old Peng’s sake, but... what of it?”

”Did any of you ever ask what I wanted?”

Han Miaozhen stopped speaking, closed her eyes for a moment, then opened them and asked, ”Venerable, have you made your choice?”

Seeing Han Miaozhen in this state, Liu Futong smiled and didn’t answer. Instead, he looked at the food box and asked, ”What good food did you bring?”

Upon hearing this, Han Miaozhen realized Liu Futong had already decided to give up. She sighed and said, ”Venerable, must it come to this? You know what the consequences of ending our conversation here will be, right?”

Liu Futong chuckled, ”Since Du Zundao plans to target the Little Ming King, naturally he can’t spare me. This must be my last meal. Once I’m full, you can send me off on my journey.”

Liu Futong wasn’t a fool. Even though his political talents were not high, he knew that if he didn’t cooperate, his influence would be limitless.

If he refused, it meant he was standing against Du Zundao, and politically, anyone on the opposing side had to be overthrown. Especially since they wanted the Little Ming King.

They must know the Little Ming King is his bottom line, yet they still decided to kill him, which means they’re prepared to kill him too!

Since that’s the case, what more is there to say?

There’s nothing left but to face death.

Liu Futong looked at Han Miaozhen, ”This last meal should have some wine. Come have a drink with me.”

As Han Miaozhen spoke, she opened the food box, revealing a roasted chicken and a pot of wine.

”I knew you liked to eat roast chicken, so I specially prepared this for you.”

Han Miaozhen said to Liu Futong. Liu Futong responded, ”You’ve been thoughtful. Pour the wine; after this cup, send me on my way.”

Han Miaozhen picked up the wine pot and said, ”Venerable, don’t you want to reconsider? Once life is gone, everything else is gone too.”

Liu Futong chuckled, ”Keeping my life means losing everything.”

Han Miaozhen understood Liu Futong’s words, and Liu Futong understood Han Miaozhen’s words. At this moment, Liu Futong said, ”Please, I can’t move my hands, feed me a bite.”

Han Miaozhen paused in silence, ”What’s the point?”

Liu Futong replied, ”In this life, we always have to live for something. For me, it’s loyalty and righteousness.”

Han Miaozhen said, ”Alright, I won’t try to persuade you then, and don’t blame me.”

Liu Futong replied, ”Don’t worry, I won’t blame you for anything.”

Han Miaozhen raised the wine cup, just as she was about to feed Liu Futong, a scream suddenly came from outside.

”Ah...”

Hmm!

Han Miaozhen was taken aback by the scream, her expression turned serious, and she looked at Liu Futong and the wine cup in her hand. She set the cup down and rushed out of the room.

What’s happening?

At this time, the gate of the Liu Residence had been kicked open, followed by a person walking in.

Thud, thud, thud...
