Chapter 730 - 442: Let Me Guess Your Name and Weakness
Just to make sure Gu An doesn’t speak anymore.
If he kept talking, he would die.
What if he really guessed right?
Bluffing?
He didn’t dare to gamble.
At this moment, Gu An reached out his hand, hooked his little finger, and said, "I wonder if the elder can cooperate with my interrogation?"
Si Wuming looked at Gu An’s little finger, completely slumped in place.
He knew again.
Who is the traitor?
Who told the person in front of him these things?
Since when did the Nether Sea Clan have such cowardly and timid people?
"Heaven wants to doom me, Si Wuming."
Si Wuming sighed and said, "If you want to kill, then kill. I’m not going to tell you anything."
Gu An sighed, "The elder truly is a model for us, so selfless, willing to sacrifice himself.
However, I’m not after your clan’s lifeblood information. I’m just curious why you’re here and what you’re here for."
"Do you think I’ll tell you?" Si Wuming laughed coldly.
No longer as arrogant as before.
Gu An shook his head helplessly, "Then a final question."
"Go ahead," Si Wuming said carelessly.
"How does the elder communicate with the clansmen in the mountains?" Gu An asked softly.
Upon hearing this, Si Wuming looked at Gu An in shock, somewhat incredulous.
"Should I keep guessing?" Gu An asked.
"Shut up, stop guessing, I beg you, stop guessing. I’ll consider my answers and tell you, is that not enough?" Si Wuming said in panic.
Gu An shook his head and sighed, "Now I don’t want to know anymore."
"Who exactly are you?" Si Wuming roared hysterically.
Hearing this, Gu An was slightly startled and said, "Isn’t the Nether Sea Clan aware of heaven? Do you know there’s an Outer Heaven?
Coincidentally, I happen to be the Outer Heaven you know.
And I’m above the ninth layer."
Si Wuming fell silent.
Gu An also felt quite emotional, then gently moved his hand, and Sword Intent emerged from his hand.
Sword Intent covered with Qi Sea Sky Gang flew out.
Psshh!
The blade brushed against the right side of the clone’s eyes.
Both eyes dropped accordingly.
One extremely scarlet eye was caught by Gu An across the air.
Then Void Star flashed to seal it.
Upon witnessing this, Si Wuming’s eyes widened in anger, if looks could kill, Gu An would have died ten thousand times.
But this time he didn’t scream.
Gu An didn’t say much else, Sword Intent appeared again, an indescribable sadness permeated around.
Then the Sword Intent split into four parts, severing the little fingers of the two clones.
Similarly, Void Star flashed, and the little fingers vanished accordingly.
Thus, Gu An shook his head and sighed, "Since the elder is so tight-lipped, I must respect this.
Let’s just leave it at that."
Originally resigned to his fate, Si Wuming decided to confess, to confess everything without reservation.
At least he could preserve these things.
He believed humans would still do such foolish things.
However...
Before he could speak, Gu An had already turned around and left with his people.
Watching the people leave, Si Wuming suddenly realized that the other party knew everything about him from start to finish.
Perhaps from the beginning, the other party never really wanted to know anything.
Just came to play around with him.
So what the Pupil of No Illusion saw wasn’t the truth at all.
From the beginning, he only thought he saw the truth.
Heaven beyond heavens, people beyond people.
The Human Clan seemed to no longer be the Human Clan of old.
Strangely, he even felt a slight fear.
If it was just about killing him, he had no fear.
Killing people, who can be invincible?
No matter how strong the Heavenly Pride, they could still die due to various reasons.
Like their clan’s Heaven’s Chosen Son, the Human Clan’s Heavenly Pride of the past.
Seemingly invincible, they all eventually perished.
Regarding death, he had nothing more to say.
Victory belongs to the king, defeat to the bandit, so it goes.
But...
He wasn’t dead, yet the other’s mystery cast a shadow over his heart.
He couldn’t understand how the other knew, nor why the other came.
But it seemed like he just passed by to mess with him.
Everything was within his control.
Holding everything about him in his palm.
...
"Killing people and crushing minds, I thought your urge to kill was gone, but it turns out you’ve just changed direction."
After going out, Chu Meng sighed, "Where did you learn this?
It’s even more painful than killing him.
Didn’t you see his final lonely gaze, his despairing expression?
I never thought you had such a penchant.
I thought I understood you well enough.
Who would have known, not only can you kill with a sword, but also crush hearts with words."
Gu An looked at his superior beside him and couldn’t help but say, "Wasn’t it taught by the elder?"
Chu Meng looked shocked, "Do I look like such a vicious person?"
"The elder said, silent arrogance fits the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch," Gu An transmitted to Chu Meng.
Chu Meng pondered for a moment, looking at Gu An incredulously.
What have you comprehended?
"How did the junior perform? Was I silent enough, or was I arrogant enough?" Gu An seriously asked,
"This time I wasn’t wrong, was I?"
"Are you sure you were just acting?" Chu Meng countered.
Gu An: "...."
What else could it be?
I myself am not one to cause trouble for no reason.
Said so much without silencing him, unlike my usual behavior.
If not for the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch, why would I say so much?
Speaking subtly, letting him know I’ve already grasped his lifeline was sufficient.
The next day.
Song Chen brought a letter.
Said Si Wuming confessed.
Gu An was slightly surprised, didn’t expect that after losing everything, he would still confess.
If he confessed earlier, he wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Then Song Chen said Si Wuming wanted the Ninth Elder to look first and needed to answer a question.
"Have you seen it?" Gu An asked curiously.
"No, it’s the two of us who took over, so we immediately brought it to the elder," Song Chen knew the weight of the matter.
To prevent the elder from nurturing any bias, they dared not show the slightest disrespect.
Since he wanted the Ninth Elder to see it first, then it must be seen first.
For the Sect and the peace of the mountain range.
They didn’t want personal motives to turn this place into Purgatory.
From all aspects, they’ve reached a dead end.
Things couldn’t get much worse.
Trust in the elder may bring unexpected hope.
Gu An opened the envelope and read simply.
Si Wuming’s words were simple, they came here for a research project, studying the existence of the nemesis and how to become the nemesis’s nemesis.
They succeeded, not only unveiling the nemesis’s lie but also starting to control the nemesis, becoming the nemesis’s nemesis.
To prevent the clan from standing beneath a crumbling wall, they even used the clan’s ancestral treasure.
It was exchanged with lives by countless predecessors.
The treasure is buried beneath the mountain range.
That’s roughly it.
Then he looked at the last sentence, "I have just one request, tell me your name."
Hesitating for a moment, Gu An took out a piece of paper, wrote some words, placed it into the envelope.
Then handed it to Song Chen, "Take it to Si Wuming."
After receiving the envelope, Song Chen hesitated, "Can we look?"
Gu An calmly said, "As you wish."
Then Song Chen left with the envelope.
He also took away the envelope given by Si Wuming.
Outside, Song Chen met Fang Shuheng who was late.
After explaining briefly, Fang Shuheng held the envelope, "Can we look?"
"The Ninth Elder said as you please," Song Chen said truthfully.
The two fell silent.
Only able to think while walking.
Does ’as you please’ mean they can look or not?
The two looked at each other and finally decided not to look.
In case the elder never intended to let them know?
After all, they asked proactively, perhaps the elder was too polite to refuse?
Soon, Si Wuming received the reply.
He opened it eagerly, just to see who the counterpart really was.
However, soon he was stunned.
Written there were four large characters—Nine Heavens Divine Monarch.
"Who is that?"
He did not recognize, never heard of.
Then he flipped to the back because he saw words shining through.
The counterpart certainly left some words behind.
Next, Si Wuming read the second sentence in the envelope: If you have never heard, don’t worry, in a few days, when you see those four words again, you’ll feel thunder in your ears.
