"It was Wang Ge himself who told me, on the mountain near the Wangyou Sect, in that field of snow," Sikong Jing replied, his gaze fixed on Mo Ci.
"Impossible, impossible..."
Mo Ci still couldn’t believe it. Every time Wang Ge saw Sikong Jing, she would have a setback.
If Sikong Jing had been masquerading as someone else, Wang Ge would not have told him, could not have told someone she didn’t trust.
Seeing the crazed disbelief in Mo Ci’s eyes, Sikong Jing spoke again, his voice distant, "Mo Ci, Wang Ge was nearly killed by Wang Qing. It was I who saved her with my own hands. Do you understand now?"
At his words, Mo Ci was stunned...
Gradually, her eyes widened in shock as she thought she saw black scales flicker across Sikong Jing’s face.
Her body trembled, and she exclaimed in disbelief, "You are, you’ve always been... that beast."
A human-shaped demon beast, Sikong Jing was the human-shaped demon beast that had appeared at the Wangyou Sect. Wang Qing had deceived Wang Ge with a fake brother, almost leading to her death, until the human-shaped demon beast suddenly appeared and saved her.
This indirectly enabled Wang Ge to master the Supreme Forget Love Technique... But Mo Ci never dreamt that a person could turn into a demon beast.
Before this, she had assumed it was some other power out to harm the Wangyou Sect.
And damn it, the Long Night Empire had fooled her, Beigong Xianfeng must have known the human-shaped monster was Sikong Jing indeed.
Damn it, damn it, damn it!
As Mo Ci was completely overwhelmed by chaos, Sikong Jing continued.
"So, your Wangyou Sect can call me, Sikong Jing ungrateful, say I killed Wang Ge’s lifesaver, and that I am the scum of the earth. You can say whatever you want about me, I don’t care."
"All I want is for Wang Ge to be alive, all I want is for her to be happy."
This was a justification, but the real reason Mo Ci had to die was because she was far too vicious.
"As for everyone in the world knowing after I kill you... Hahaha, once you are dead, the Wangyou Sect will do everything in their power to protect Wang Ge, for she is the only one left capable of practicing the ’Supreme Forget Love Technique’."
"Even if the whole world knows I killed you, Wang Ge absolutely must not find out. Am I right?"
"At least, she cannot know before you manage to kill me..."
Mo Ci gazed at Sikong Jing, her breath now barely perceptible, but still she insisted, "If you truly care for Wang Ge, you should tell her not to seek death, and then you should die instead..."
The final word "die" was uttered with such piercing intensity that it seemed to resonate in the air as Mo Ci breathed her last.
Sikong Jing was still looking at her body as he murmured, "But if I die, Wang Ge will still not be happy. I intend to utterly extinguish the ’Supreme Forget Love Technique’ within her, and my life isn’t just for Wang Ge alone."
Perhaps it was due to his ruthless killing, or perhaps because his wounds were grave, but when he mentioned his sister, when he thought of her, the beastly rage within Sikong Jing could not be contained.
The scales Mo Ci had noticed were signs of being demonized once again, raising the alarm among all the beasts within the Ten Thousand Beasts Sky Prison.
And as Sikong Jing concluded his last sentence, the image of Su Yuexi waiting for him to return flashed through his mind, and the signs of being demonized immediately receded... In any case, Mo Ci was now truly dead, and Sikong Jing had finally slain his formidable enemy.
Swish, swish, swish...
At this moment, Gongyang Ren and Lu Lungan, along with a host of experts, had already surrounded Sikong Jing.
Yet no one spoke a word, as Mo Ci’s death still stunned them.
Just as Mo Ci had said before her death, this would certainly send shockwaves through the entire East Plain Northern Land, making Sikong Jing a name that could not be hidden.
Then, Sikong Jing withdrew his gaze and looked around at the people. Next, without any expression, he collected Mo Ci’s body into the space of the Golden Soul Palace. He needed her corpse to study the ’Supreme Forget Love Technique’.
The Wangyou Sect wanted to conceal his existence from his sister, which could be done for the time being, but it obviously couldn’t be hidden for long.
Therefore, the "Supreme Forget Love Technique" that wouldn’t fail had to be produced as soon as possible, and before this, he was confident that he could get it done within two months. Now, with Mo Ci’s corpse, he was sure he could shorten the time to one month.
One month would definitely be enough...
The Wangyou Sect would surely have his sister enter into seclusion.
After claiming the body, Sikong Jing then turned his gaze towards Gongyang Ren and the others, but the latter spoke first, demanding, "Sikong Jing, surrender at once, you and the Iron Bone Flying Vulture are in no state to escape."
Both Sikong Jing and the Iron Bone Flying Vulture were seriously injured at the moment.
Gongyang Ren continued without waiting for Sikong Jing to speak, "I know what you want to say, but it’s useless. If you say it, you won’t live to see Wang Ge— I will take your life!"
It was still the secret of the Moon Soul War Body. If Sikong Jing spoke about it, Gongyang Ren would kill him, leaving no survivors.
"The only way to save your little life now is to surrender. We can talk afterwards," Gongyang Ren emphasized again.
He used his absolute dominance to oppress Sikong Jing’s spirit.
At the same time, he used Wang Ge to manipulate emotions; Gongyang Ren had heard the conversation between Sikong Jing and Mo Ci very clearly.
Such blind affection, just too blindly affectionate!
For Wang Ge, Sikong Jing could disregard everything, even bear the world’s damnation!
For now, no one knew... Wang Ge was merely Sikong Jing’s sister...
Of course, even if everyone knew, the reasoning would be the same.
But faced with aggression, Sikong Jing responded with a smile, "Imperial Advisor Gongyang, you have been troubled these days because of me."
He paused, then looked towards Gongyang Ying, who had a complex expression, and continued, "And Miss Gongyang, I, Sikong Jing, have wronged you in these past days, letting you suffer a lot of grievances."
No sooner had the words fallen when Gongyang Ying burst out angrily, "You think saying this now will do any good?"
This villain actually hoped to play on her emotions— it was utterly laughable. Did he think she would go soft?
"Although I am very moved by your feelings for Wang Ge, everything for Wang Ge, I cannot let you go. Neither can my War Soul Dynasty let you go, and there is no personal affection between you and me."
"Now, you have no choice but to surrender."
Gongyang Ying added a few more fierce words, her eyes still shooting fire.
However, Sikong Jing said in astonishment, "Miss Gongyang has misunderstood me. My words are not meant to ask for your forgiveness or to let me go, but since you’ve already suffered so much, a bit more won’t make any difference."
As soon as the words were out, Gongyang Ying was stunned, and many others were thoroughly confused... what did he mean!
But Gongyang Ren immediately realized what was happening, his hair standing on end as he screamed, "Ying’er, be careful, protect Ying’er..."
He had instantly understood the underlying meaning in Sikong Jing’s words. Damn it, he still wanted to use Ying’er.
But it was too late; suddenly... Roar!
A Demon Dragon, belonging to the War Soul Sacred Dragon Palace, pounced from behind Gongyang Ying and the others without any warning, swallowed Gongyang Ying whole, and then coiled up Sikong Jing high into the air...
Gongyang Ren and Aunt Mian, among others, had looks of horror, as they were about to attack the Demon Dragon.
But Sikong Jing, standing on the back of the Demon Dragon, calmly replied, "Imperial Advisor Gongyang, you’d better not attack. Miss Gongyang is in the mouth of the Demon Dragon right now, and if things don’t go well, people might die."
His voice carried a chilling wind that swept over Gongyang Ren.
