Chapter 1739: The Night Before, Danger
At this moment, no matter how long Shi Douxing tried to digest it, he still found it hard to remain calm, his mind in a chaotic mess.
Liu Shitian’s few words had already confirmed his previous suspicions.
Sikong Jing would absolutely not harm Su Beiheng’s family, because he had long been Su Beiheng’s grandson-in-law. His purpose in coming to Willow Leaf City was not to seize the Qianyuan Soldier Fragment but to rescue his family and wife.
Yet precisely because of this, it’s terrifying...
This little guy who emerged from the East Plain has now become the so-called Holy Body Genius of the Overlord Commerce. He even killed Pei Kuang’s son in public, so just as Liu Shitian had just said...
He might have already made contact with Xiu Hanzi, or even if not, what’s in store for his future?
If Sikong Jing had no martial arts talent, then he might not become something significant. But the current Great Judge Sikong is so similar to Su Beiheng in talent and the way he operates, it’s frighteningly overwhelming.
In any case, Sikong Jing’s future is likely to become a figure like Su Old Demon.
If I were to seize his Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Formation now, I would probably be betting with the entire fate of the Nidao Sect. How could Shi Douxing not be flustered or remain calm?
Looking at Shi Douxing, Sikong Jing gently replied, "Sect Master Shi, I am now the Soul Dominator’s Heir, and I still only want the conditions just proposed, which is for you to show off obtaining the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation at Willow Leaf Saint Manor."
"As for the future, even I don’t know, but I certainly won’t bind Sect Master Shi and the Nidao Sect."
"We are merely in a present transaction."
This was Sikong Jing’s promise to Shi Douxing, ensuring that the Nidao Sect would not be involved with Su Old Demon remnants.
"Of course, there may still be implications in the future, and I can’t guarantee whether the Qianwang Holy Tower will act against the Nidao Sect because of this; nobody can predict the future," Sikong Jing heavily emphasized.
He did not clarify whether he had already contacted Xiu Hanzi, as this was not important to Shi Douxing.
Shi Douxing, hearing this, closed his eyes deeply, and when he opened them again, he had made a decision.
He decided to take a gamble!
He said in a low voice, "Alright, I agree to your transaction. The Nidao Sect could reach its current status thanks to Brother Su; otherwise, we would have been wiped out by Willow Leaf Saint Manor back then."
"And I also believe in the Great Judge Sikong’s ability to keep his promises..."
Which means, trusting that Sikong Jing will not have too many ties with them in the future.
Because he understands what kind of person Su Beiheng is, so he believes Sikong Jing is the same type of person!
With that, Sikong Jing smiled and said, "Then now, let’s enjoy our cooperation."
Next, Sikong Jing said no more and handed a black jade paper engraved with the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Formation to Shi Douxing.
Then, after Shi Douxing studied it, Sikong Jing spoke again, "I brought a hundred people this time, and now I am going to elevate your Nidao Sect’s Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation to its strongest state within three days..."
The reason Sikong Jing brought a hundred members of the Batian Team was to personally enhance and guide the disciples of the Nidao Sect.
Just like that, Shi Douxing and Sikong Jing walked out of the hall and summoned everyone to the Martial Arts Arena.
Under the watchful eyes of the leaders of various small and medium forces, Sikong Jing immediately led his hundred Batian Team members to face off against the disciples of the Nidao Sect, initiating the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation and remaining invincible...
"It’s too terrifying; this is the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Formation."
"Clearly, the hundred young people brought by the Great Judge Sikong were very weak, yet the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation made them strong enough to frighten everyone."
The leaders of the various small and medium forces, as well as the people of the Nidao Sect, looked at the battle in the Martial Arts Arena, all feeling chills run down their spines.
They gained a new understanding of the terror of the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Formation...
And after letting everyone see the terror of the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation, Sikong Jing stopped and personally selected and guided members of the Nidao Sect.
Seeing this scene, the onlookers from small and medium forces were green with envy.
"Wonder what conditions Sect Master Shi agreed to with the Great Judge Sikong; we don’t know if we can be involved in this!"
"Yes, we badly want the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation."
At this, the eyes of the Nidao Sect disciples began to grasp the initial stages of the Hundred Dominating Souls Soldier Killing Formation...
Over the next three days, the disciples of the Nidao Sect continuously practiced in the Martial Arts Arena.
And Sikong Jing did not leave; he frequently descended to guide them, making the Nidao Sect’s Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation grow ever stronger. However, even so, they were still far inferior to Sikong Jing himself...
As long as Sikong Jing led the hundred members into action, no team of a hundred from the Nidao Sect could match him.
In a flash, they would be defeated.
Swiftly, it came to the nighttime of the third day...
After completing another round of guidance, Sikong Jing approached Shi Douxing and said, "Sect Master Shi, tomorrow is my three-day appointment with Willow Leaf Saint Manor. Please bring people to assist me then."
Upon hearing this, Shi Douxing agreed without hesitation, giving his solemn promise.
Following this, Sikong Jing said no more and took his leave...
However, as he left, leaders from numerous small and medium forces swarmed over, each gazing at him with pleading eyes.
There was no need to ask what their expressions indicated what they were after.
In response, Sikong Jing smiled and replied, "For now, I can’t sell it to you, but you can come register at my Batian Branch tomorrow, and I will send someone to assess your situation..."
He certainly wouldn’t sell the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation to others just yet; he had to ensure that Willow Leaf Saint Manor had no way of getting it.
But later, he could assess the situation and perhaps offer them the most basic version of the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation.
As for the assessment, it was a way of telling them.
Willow Leaf Saint Manor is my enemy, and if you lean toward them, you will not obtain it, this is Sikong Jing’s bottom line.
Thus, amid the gratitude of the crowd, Sikong Jing, along with Bai Xiaojin and others, left Shi Douxing’s Manor.
Meanwhile, around Shi Douxing, many disciples from the Nidao Sect gathered, watching Sikong Jing’s departing back with complex or admiring looks...
A middle-aged man sighed and said, "The Great Judge Sikong, truly terrifying."
This was their impression from the past three days; no matter what they did, they could never win against Sikong Jing in the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation.
No matter how much they felt they had gained, Sikong Jing could still point out their mistakes, and how could they not admire him? Particularly the young Nidao Sect disciples who had practiced the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation, they were simply in awe.
At this moment, the middle-aged man asked, "Master, what exactly did you agree to with the Great Judge Sikong?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Douxing, with a wry smile, said, "Tomorrow, he wants us to go to Willow Leaf Saint Manor and flaunt the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation."
At these words, the middle-aged man and others were left dumbfounded on the spot; weren’t the conditions too straightforward?
Shi Douxing did not delve further into an explanation, even as his surprise hadn’t faded after three days and had grown even stronger because Su Beiheng’s grandson-in-law seemed even more daunting than Su Beiheng.
...
The Batian Branch, after staying three days at Shi Douxing’s Manor, Sikong Jing and his group returned.
As they were entering the Judgement Tower and proceeding to the Great Judge’s office, Bai Xiaojin couldn’t help but ask, "Master, why can’t I learn the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation?"
Over these three days, Sikong Jing had naturally also taught the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation to his two disciples.
Leng Sha managed to learn it, but Bai Xiaojin could not grasp it at all, which left her very frustrated and upset.
To this, Sikong Jing had no solution; he had discovered early on that the Hundred-man Soldier Killing Formation required a certain type of talent, which Bai Xiaojin evidently lacked.
Just as Sikong Jing was about to comfort her...
Suddenly, his gaze pierced through to his office, and the terrifying intuition of the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts told him that inside was very dangerous.
