Chapter 1099: Wanting To Cry, But Lacking Tears To Do So (1/2)

Ordinarily, the Heavensworn Four didn’t care a whit about origin realm cultivators of any kind If that particular one hadn’t been trying to gather information on the Moon God Sect’s secrets, they wouldn’t have known about hih they’d taken a more intiht it was anything more than routine And yet, it was that ht cala Taiyan opened his ong Ming each time Clearly, the latter orried that the forators once ht now, they had to suck it up and wait for reinforcements

“Next question” Liu Zhen’s look swept frostily across the Heavensworn Four’s faces “You better think this one through If anything is unclear, or if I think you’re lying…”

“Oh, no, ask away!” Beigong Ming proclaimed loudly “I swear onbut the truth If I lie at all, let my inner demons consume me!”

An oath upon one’s inner de, Liu Zhen was about to ask his next prepared question when he saw the visual co Taiyan Sudden, rinned sinisterly

“I’ong Ming “You’re the second of the Heavensworn Four Have you ever thought about getting rid of your big brother and replacing hi Chen and Emperor Peerless both nodded, appreciative of Liu Zhen’s stroke of genius The question appeared si the four’s brotherly bonds into disarray If successful, they would no longer be of one nificantly easier

Beigong Ming’s face froze when he heard the question In general, he was quite accepting of Cong Taiyan’s leadershi+p But to say that he hadn’t ever had delusions of beco difference between the boss and the second-in-co the boss of the Heavensworn Society in Cong Taiyan’s absence occasionally flash through his mind… However, impractical daydreams like that were supposed to be hidden in one’s heart Talking about the Taiyan widened his eyes when he heard the question He gawked at Beigong Ming Liu Zhen’s question had hit a soft spot, piquing his curiosity The leader of the Heavensworn Four was both a firecracker and not one for deep schemes He couldn’t shake his reliance on wily individuals like Beigong Ming, but actually looked down on them a little In fact, he tended to be wary of and wanted to exclude theth and audacity, but waswould try to take over his position was also an occasional consideration for hi cursed silently This question put hi, since he had had such thoughts before The fact that he had never acted on the like that?

Adrievous degree The Heavensworn Four would never coexist peacefully together after His words prior wouldn’t let him play du to be casually broken Lying about it would bring about backlash very quickly, with the consequences being likely lethal

In that instant, Beigong Ming’s heart was a ee He was as dejected as could be, and wanted very badly not to answer, but… doing that would upset Cong Taiyan as well Silence in this case was tacit ad was another chance for the other man to kill someone

A bizarre smirk drew itself across Liu Zhen’s face “You can choose not to answer,” he laughed unconcernedly, his eyes still trained on Beigong Ming “I can kill someone else instead But remember, his blood is on you!”

“Second brother, just tell him What’re you worried about?” The fourth of the Heavensworn Four was a frank and single- over any of his brothers’ positions In his perspective, the Heavensworn Four were as good as real brothers Since big brother was stronger than everyone else, didn’t it ht up? How could anyone think otherwise? Thus, he assuht

Cong Taiyan tossed a distant look at Beigong Ming “That’s right, number two Just tell him”

The same words were spoken with very different tones and e finally decided not to risk his oath after all He’d prefer to anger Cong Taiyan rather than bet with his life He nodded with sohts like that However, I’ve never re brother is far stronger and more charis boss of the Society”

As expected, Cong Taiyan’s expression frosted over at those words The fourth brother was agape as well “Beigong Ming,” he yelped, “you two-faced animal! How could you entertain ideas like that in the first place?”

The third brother shook his head as well However, his look towards Beigong Ming lacked so aze darted around the roo in cheerful laughter, Liu Zhen clapped in resounding applause “Alright, alright, I won’t kill anyone this ti Ming couldn’t share the happiness He didn’t dare lock eyes with Cong Taiyan any more The other man’s hatred was almost like a condensed ball of flaeneral direction

Liu Zhen s to rest on the third of the Four “It’s your turn to answer the same question I know you haven’t made an oath on your inner demons, but I can just kill you if you lie”

The third’s body shook, and his heart let out a cry of despair He hadn’t dodged calaaze was sharply fixed to the third brother noell He seemed like a violent beast about to erupt at any tiesture e of steel was already at his neck

“Answer,” Liu Zhen declared coolly “I only want to hear the truth If you’d like to try lying about it, feel free”
