Berserk God of War-Chapter 1645: An Overwhelming Force, He Can’t Win
Sikong Jing stepped forward, gently stroking the Split Armor Flying Scorpion...
"You’ve almost fully digested the blood of the Split Armor Divine Scorpion I gave you earlier, haven’t you?"
"Now I will immediately give you my Demon Blood to perform a significant enhancement, reaching at least the peak of the Fourth Realm of Venerable."
With that said, Sikong Jing directly merged with the Split Armor Divine Scorpion, and his True Qi penetrated into it.
When he returned victorious from defeating Fu Wang, Sikong Jing had given a trace of the blood from the Split Armor Divine Scorpion within the Ten Thousand Beasts Sky Prison for the scorpion to absorb. Now, thirty percent of the Flying Scorpion’s meridians had reached the Fourth Realm of Venerable.
However, seventy percent of the Demon Scorpion meridians remained...
Thus, Sikong Jing was prepared to give it his demonized blood now to help it evolve and breakthrough.
Absorbing Divine Scorpion blood is slower, but Demon Blood can be absorbed quickly, as the Demon Path is inherently this way...
The breakthrough of the thirty percent normal Flying Scorpion meridians laid a strong foundation, which will accelerate the breakthrough of the Demon Scorpion meridians.
Facing the terrifying pressure from the Pei Yuxian siblings, even Venerable Ba Lian reaching top-level Emperor was not enough; Sikong Jing might have to face top-level Venerable Pei Yushan alone tomorrow.
Therefore, the breakthrough of the Split Armor Flying Scorpion is crucial...
This time, Sikong Jing has to stand out even if the voting fails during the inquiry at the Qianwang Holy Tower.
Of course, it doesn’t matter even if Venerable Ba Lian ultimately loses to Pei Yuxian. Sikong Jing still has other means, like the Beast Killing Array; anyway, the current situation demands ensuring he can openly deal with Pei Yushan.
As Sikong Jing’s True Qi and Demon Blood pour in, the Split Armor Flying Scorpion lets out a low hiss.
Firstly, its injuries are rapidly recovering.
Regarding the voting situation looking promising, why does Sikong Jing remain so cautious?
No, Sikong Jing does not believe the voting is truly optimistic.
What if Murong Jianyun of the Great Heaven Decision suddenly casts three opposing votes? He never liked fighting uncertain battles, as stated by Venerable Ba Lian, not to easily entrust fate to others.
...
Batian Outer City, Ba You Restaurant.
The Pei Yuxian siblings returned to their room after leaving the Teng Mansion; as soon as they sat down, Pei Yushan asked in a low voice, "Seventh Sister, is Murong Jianyun really that strong? Being a top-level Emperor, can you not defeat him?"
To this, Pei Yuxian coldly looked up.
Unpleasantly replying, "No, I can’t defeat him. That old fellow probably has one foot already stepping into the Holy Martial Stage."
Upon hearing these words, Pei Yushan’s eyes gleamed with cold light, asking further, "Then tomorrow if he..."
Before finishing his sentence, Pei Yuxian interrupted, "Nanfeng has already assured us that tomorrow’s voting will not pose any issues, there’s no need to worry. Murong Jianyun can’t possibly protect the Soul Dominator’s Heir any longer."
"We’re not here to declare war on the Overlord Commerce, merely here to claim the head of the Soul Dominator’s Heir."
She certainly knew what Pei Yushan wanted to ask — what if Murong Jianyun insists on protecting the Soul Dominator’s Heir?
But, there’ll be no issue with the voting.
"Of course, the head of the Soul Dominator’s Heir alone won’t suffice."
Pei Yuxian continued, "By then, we must also negotiate with Murong Jianyun; having more than just the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Array, the two pieces of Qianyuan Soldier Fragment held by Overlord Commerce is excessively much."
Upon saying this, Pei Yuxian’s mouth curled into a truly sinister smile...
"Although now isn’t the time for war declarations, we need to make Overlord Commerce and the major forces of the Central Plains understand the consequences of offending our Qianwang Holy Tower. They must also know the power of Qianwang Holy Tower."
Upon hearing this, Pei Yushan nodded heavily, eyes filled with anticipation...
Other forces, at most, possess one piece of the Qianyuan Soldier Fragment, while Overlord Commerce possesses two, which is intolerable by the Qianwang Holy Tower.
Then, Pei Yushan furrowed his brow and changed the topic: "Unexpectedly, this Yao Yulou seems to actually have no problems; it’s her daughter Jiang Bi, who turned out not to be of the Evil Charm Sacred Body bloodline, merely possessing the Blood Charm Demon Cat."
Nodding, Pei Yuxian said, "This may disappoint father, but let us inform him regardless!"
With Pei Yuxian’s words, Pei Yushan unhesitatingly compiled the investigation results of Yao Yulou and details that Jiang Wanyou and her daughter are not of the Evil Charm Sacred Body, then sent it back to the Qianwang Holy Tower...
Afterward, they quietly waited for the daybreak’s arrival!
...
Batian Inner City, Ba Yun Secret Realm.
Murong Jianyun returned here with Beicang, and before they could talk closely, Dongwu came seeking them.
"Great Heaven Decision, this time, one of the Ten Emperors of Qianwang Holy Tower, Pei Yuxian, has come." 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
"And you’ve seen it; the daughter of Pei Kuang alone is terrifying enough, directly crushing Ba Lian. We can’t compare to Qianwang Holy Tower at all, perhaps we should forgo tomorrow’s voting."
"No need for voting, just declare Sikong Jing to face the inquiry by himself."
Dongwu entered the Ba Yun Secret Realm with a pale complexion as he spoke.
Although he hadn’t seen Pei Yuxian in action, Dongwu keenly sensed her power — and she was only one of Pei Kuang’s daughters, yet already a top-level Emperor. How to contend with them?
Like Pei Yuxian being a top-level Emperor, Qianwang Holy Tower has at least nine others of equal caliber.
The most frightening aspect is Pei Kuang — both his son and daughter have achieved top-level Emperor status; undoubtedly, he himself has reached the Holy Martial Stage.
In contrast, within the Overlord Commerce, top-level Emperors currently only include Great Heaven Decision Murong Jianyun and Beicang Tianjue, alongside a former old Tianjue who rarely appears; merely three individuals altogether.
They can’t compare to Qianwang Holy Tower.
To this, Murong Jianyun softly remarked, "Since voting is declared, it must proceed accordingly — it’s not a matter of deciding not to vote."
Scrunching his mouth, Dongwu understood the Great Heaven Decision’s meaning.
Since voting has been announced, suddenly canceling it would severely damage the morale of Overlord Commerce’s members and diminish the prestige of their Heavenly Deciders; Dongwu came intending only to vent frustration.
The main goal was to ensure Murong Jianyun avoids making impulsive voting choices tomorrow.
Murong Jianyun certainly comprehended Dongwu’s worries...
He made repeated assurances to not participate in the voting tomorrow, which eased Dongwu’s concerns before he departed.
After Dongwu’s departure, Beicang again walked back out.
She asked softly, "Great Heaven Decision, the Qianwang Holy Tower sent Pei Yuxian to demand accountability, implying their determination for success; if the Soul Dominator’s Heir wins tomorrow, how will we withstand their opposition?"
Pei Yuxian’s presence indicated Qianwang Holy Tower’s aggressive stance, leaving Beicang deeply uneasy.
"Do you think the Soul Dominator’s Heir can win?" Murong Jianyun abruptly countered.
Beicang paused in response, having monitored the Teng Mansion’s affairs — resulting in Venerable Ba Lian shutting herself away and the Soul Dominator’s Heir focusing solely on training within, showing no intention of engaging in lobbying.
In such circumstances, their voting could surely not succeed.
At this moment, Murong Jianyun continued, "Alian wasn’t aiming to win the vote — she’s focused on cultivation and advancement, having indeed reached the Emperor Fifth Realm. She’s preparing to resist my suppression!"
Suddenly illuminated, Beicang understood.
Her eyes gleamed sharply, "Unfortunately, the night before voting provides her a heavy blow; it’s unclear what dual strategies she’ll prepare tomorrow, yet we ought to suppress her, shouldn’t we?"
