Berserk God of War-Chapter 1561: A Life-and-Death Game, Resolve to Die
At this moment, Cang Lin was deeply grateful to Sikong Jing...
To this, Duanmu Chun continued, "Since Sikong Jing did it on purpose, then he must have a way to deal with it."
With that, he clenched his fist tightly, for he had not expected things to turn out like this.
The previously set plan did not include this at all.
The plan was just that, after reaching Shaking Zone 1, Sikong Jing would provoke Pei Yuzheng into a fair battle and then kill him on the spot.
As long as Pei Yuzheng died, those who sided with him would inevitably fall into chaos!
But the current situation was completely unexpected, and Duanmu Chun was also uncertain about what Sikong Jing could do to respond, seeing that Pei Yuzheng looked determined to kill and wouldn’t give up otherwise.
It was no longer about responding to moves as they come, but facing a matter of life and death.
"Hmph, there’s no other way except for him to disappear again." This time, it was not Gong Ying speaking, but Venerable Luo Ye.
The Five Grass Venerable added, "The second method is to take the Battle Flag and recognize its ownership with blood..."
He pointed to the Battle Flag behind Sikong Jing, then coldly said, "But doing so would surely lead to the deaths of Yao Yulou and the others. He should have taken the Battle Flag with the Yao Residence’s people before triggering Pei Yuzheng."
Although the two Venerables also loathed Sikong Jing, as Venerables, they could still analyze the situation calmly.
Upon confirming that Sikong Jing was indeed the assassin, everyone had to acknowledge his terror, even though no one knew how Sikong Jing managed to escape from Haner Second District or how he infiltrated Shaking Zone 1 so quickly.
Their analysis received widespread recognition.
With Sikong Jing’s demeanor, he would never take the Battle Flag and withdraw from the contest area...
At that moment, someone else chimed in, "If he leads Yao Yulou and the others to seize the Battle Flag, everyone on Sacred Canggu Peak will die."
Precisely because of the crisis on Sacred Canggu Peak, Sikong Jing had no time to lead the Yao Residence’s people to seize the Battle Flag...
Upon hearing this, Gong Ying sneered, "That’s why those who are sentimental and righteous die faster; they’re foolish."
Clearly, Sikong Jing had the chance and ability to lead everyone in the Yao Residence to take a hundred Battle Flags, but he chose to ignite Pei Yuzheng to save the people of Sacred Canggu Peak. Isn’t that foolish?
Gong Ying’s words caused Cang Lin to glare angrily, and made the other elders and so forth of Sacred Canggu Peak clench their fists.
At that moment, they were completely conquered by Sikong Jing.
No one dared to speak ill of Sikong Jing or the Yao Residence’s people anymore; some even felt secretly ashamed, for the disciples of Sacred Canggu Peak had abandoned the people of the Yao Residence previously, yet they were now rescuing them instead!
No, twice...
The appearance of the Four Great Devils saved them once, and now it was the second time...
In secret, Venerable Ba Lian frowned tightly, "What’s this little brat up to?"
She also couldn’t figure out what confidence Sikong Jing had by igniting Pei Yuzheng at this moment. Previously, he could have avoided exposing his identity as the assassin and could have used other methods to save the people of Sacred Canggu Peak.
But he ignited the situation regardless, placing himself in a deadlock, almost leaving one without hope of counterattack.
At this moment, someone said, "The young genius of the Yao Residence has arrived!"
...
Below, Sikong Jing still stood on the ruins of the courtyard, the surrounding pressure intensifying rather than diminishing.
At this point, Yang Yi and Hua Meixi led the people from the Yao Residence through the crowd, each landing behind Sikong Jing.
They came over in a hurry, already fully aware of the current situation. After landing, they silently drew their weapons, thus centering around Sikong Jing to prepare for the dreadful battle.
They also didn’t understand why Sikong Jing would trigger the battle now, but they didn’t ask further.
They steadfastly believed in Sikong Jing...
The onlookers around retreated again and again with the arrival of Yao Residence’s people, knowing that it was no longer possible to watch the battle closely and needing to clear the area for the imminent arrival of the Qianwang Holy Tower’s people.
Retreating further away was the only way to avoid getting caught in the great battle.
In the blink of an eye, there were only Sikong Jing’s hundred people left along with a few Qianwang Holy Tower supporters, but more supporters were arriving, calmly waiting for Pei Yuzheng.
...
At the location of the Holy Flag and Emperor Flag, the Four Great Devils glanced at the Sacred Canggu Peak’s people.
The Old Ironsmith chuckled softly, "Our Little Dominating Soul seems crazier than the Soul Dominator Venerable, thrilling!"
"Save the thrill; let’s hurry over there!" said the Old Farmer resignedly.
The Old Farmer Lady nodded solemnly, "No matter what, even if we risk our lives, we must ensure Little Dominating Soul survives."
Then the four said no more, nor did they exchange half a word with Sacred Canggu Peak’s people. They swiftly accelerated towards Sikong Jing, who was injured from a previous attack.
But they didn’t care, not fearing death at all, for protecting the Soul Dominator’s Heir was their mission.
Everyone thought the Soul Dominator Venerable was crazy...
But only those closest to him knew he had a charm that inspired awe.
Watching the direction where the Four Great Devils vanished, Tie Ti’er slowly looked towards Sacred Canggu Peak’s people, her clear voice ringing, "Now, those willing to fight alongside Brother Sikong, let us depart together."
As soon as the words fell, the people of Canggu didn’t hesitate to step forward.
Even the heavily injured Canggu Disciples forced themselves to stand up, following Tie Ti’er without a thought, chasing after the Four Great Devils, carrying with them the resolve to die.
...
Still at the location of the Emperor Flag and Holy Flag...
The disciples of major forces including East Dominator Branch and Ten Thousand Grass Saint Sect had also halted their attempts to solve the tricky issue at the Emperor Flag Courtyard. They silently observed Sikong Jing’s direction, secretly communicating their next targets.
Suddenly, Ming Yan, the proud disciple of Ba Lie Venerable, laughed loudly, "Why care about a brat destined to die? Now that Qianwang Holy Tower has left, let’s seize the Holy Flag..."
With this, all the forces on site focused on him, their eyes bursting with cold light.
Suddenly... boom boom boom!
A young genius at the Heavenly King Realm Peak from a certain major force declared, "East Dominator Branch, just three of your Emperor Martial Stage left earlier, and now you still want the Holy Flag? Get out of the Emperor Flag and Holy Flag area immediately."
With the sound falling, True Qi erupted in their area.
Ming Yan’s expression changed slightly as the Netherworld Guardian and two others left on Gong Ying’s instruction, leaving only five Emperor Martial Stages behind, clearly weaker compared to other major forces.
However, Gong Yi stepped forward boldly, saying, "We’ve been allied with the Ten Thousand Grass Saint Sect for a long time now."
The people of the Ten Thousand Grass Saint Sect heard this and stepped out to join forces with the East Dominator Branch.
The entire atmosphere around the Emperor Flag and Holy Flag area solidified as if a major battle was about to erupt.
Previously, due to the presence of the Qianwang Holy Tower, the disciples of major forces were very restrained, not daring to touch the courtyard where the Holy Flag was located, for fear of being targeted like Sacred Canggu Peak without anyone’s help.
But now that the Qianwang Holy Tower had left, it was a great opportunity for them to seize the Holy Flag.
...
Somewhere in Shaking Zone 1, Yao Yulou was also deeply watching Sikong Jing’s location.
He still held his sword in his hand, muttering, "I didn’t expect Ajing to launch the battle so soon."
