Berserk God of War

Chapter 1988: Chapter 1988: Terms, Conquering Holy Martial Demon Beasts

As soon as these words were spoken, Murong Jianyun’s mouth twitched repeatedly.

This Qianwang Young Master, despite being terrifying and having a temperament unfitting for his age, still carried the arrogance of the Qianwang Holy Tower. Yet, he merely said to Sikong Jing, "has the potential to become a rival."

What he meant by "potential" was merely a reluctant acknowledgment that Sikong Jing could be considered his opponent.

Before Sikong Jing could reply, Pei Yusheng’s immature voice rang out again from afar...

"Are you feeling unconvinced?"

"But five days ago, you saw clearly. I have an Innate Saint Body, a Secret Technique that can bring people back to life. I can even devour a Nine-grade Battle Body to evolve my Saint Body, and I can lead Holy Martial Stage demon beasts..."

"Don’t you think I have the capital to be arrogant?"

Pei Yusheng stated bluntly, causing Murong Jianyun’s twitching mouth to freeze suddenly.

Indeed, there is a capital for arrogance; Pei Yusheng’s terrifying talent, among other things, leaves no peer across the Central Plains, provoking boundless envy.

Enough to overshadow every genius in the Central Plains...

"Besides, I have a Holy Artifact, and I’m backed by the Qianwang Holy Tower. You should be happy that I acknowledge you."

Upon hearing the words "Holy Artifact," Murong Jianyun’s heart twitched slightly again.

He naturally recalled the time Pei Yusheng used the Holy Artifact for power boost when blocked in Willow Leaf Forest, allowing him to catch Sikong Jing’s punch at the initial Spirit Martial Stage effortlessly...

Wait, didn’t Sikong Jing also have a Holy Artifact?

Realizing this, Murong Jianyun’s mood brightened significantly, but deep down, he thought these two might really be destined rivals.

In response, Sikong Jing calmly nodded and replied with an unchanged expression, "Indeed it’s enviable, but you seem unable to fully channel the Holy Artifact’s acceleration, haven’t you fully bonded with it yet?"

Upon hearing this, Murong Jianyun’s whole body trembled wildly.

Of course! If the Thunderstorm Roar Beast could have used the Holy Artifact to accelerate previously, both me and Sikong Jing might not have made it here.

Pei Yusheng’s eyes flickered with a glint of cold light upon hearing this...

He then shrugged and straightforwardly replied, "Indeed, it hasn’t fully bonded, but it won’t take much longer."

Bonding with the Holy Artifact is no easy task.

Sikong Jing temporarily couldn’t bond with the Space Holy Key, and Pei Yusheng couldn’t either. Although the latter could utilize part of the Holy Artifact’s power, it was similar to the principle of the previous Space Holy Key.

"So, do you want me to help research the method of bonding?"

Sikong Jing laughed and replied, "If you’re looking to devour Pei Yupo, why not lend me your Holy Artifact for a few days?"

Upon hearing this, Pei Yupo, from atop the Split Armor Flying Scorpion, wanted to scream...

But... smack!

Murong Jianyun slapped him flying, making him speechless, and coldly said, "When two Sacred Bodies are confronting each other, why would a Nine-grade Battle Body speak up?"

At this moment, Murong Jianyun deliberately struck Pei Yupo hard.

The latter, of course, spewed blood with a bitter "wow," feeling utterly stifled and devastated.

Damn, he once was the strongest below Emperor Martial, but after just one trip to Willow Leaf City, he turned into nothing. Now even his life is used as a bargaining chip in negotiations, what a shame, how pathetic.

In the end, he could only weakly and vaguely say, "Soul Dominator’s Heir, you can’t go back on your word!"

He feared Sikong Jing would hand him back to Pei Yusheng...

Ignoring Pei Yupo, the two demon beast leaders, one True Saint Body, and one Fake Saint Body coldly confronted each other.

Then the True Saint Body Pei Yusheng spoke again, "It’s impossible to lend you the Holy Artifact, but I can give you other good things."

In the situation where he couldn’t catch up, if Pei Yusheng wanted Pei Yupo back, it naturally had to turn into negotiating terms. His earlier boasting and arrogance were merely prelude to negotiations with Sikong Jing...

Now that Sikong Jing broke through the prelude straight to the point, Pei Yusheng naturally had to follow up.

Sikong Jing inquired, "Oh? What kind of good things might those be?"

While not intending to return Pei Yupo, Sikong Jing was undoubtedly curious what Pei Yusheng would offer.

In response, Pei Yusheng pointed at the Thunderstorm Roar Beast beneath him and said leisurely, "As everyone knows, Holy Martial Stage demon beasts don’t easily submit to others, but the Thunderstorm Roar Beast willingly follows me. So, I can teach you the method to conquer a Holy Martial Stage demon beast."

As those words fell, Murong Jianyun was stunned on the spot.

And Sikong Jing was dumbfounded—if the Fierce Beast Divine Beast of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sky Prison could hear this, it would probably burst out laughing. To think he could teach the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts how to conquer Holy Martial demon beasts?

Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous.

Seeing Sikong Jing dumbstruck, Pei Yusheng naturally assumed he had stunned the latter.

This shouldn’t be blamed on Pei Yusheng for underestimating Sikong Jing; it’s just that barely anyone in the Central Plains could make Holy Martial Stage demon beasts obey.

This is undoubtedly a very miraculous feat.

Therefore, Pei Yusheng continued to chuckle, "Once you learn my method to conquer Holy Martial Stage demon beasts, should you find a Holy Martial demon beast, it would significantly bolster Overlord Commerce’s combat power."

"Holy Martial demon beasts are rare, but they do exist in the Central Plains."

"So? Hand over the now-useless Pei Yupo after interrogation, and you can gain the method to give Overlord Commerce a chance to turn the tides in battle. It’s absolutely worthwhile."

The youthful voice, madly enticing Sikong Jing...

Had it been someone else, they might truly be tempted, because the pressure looming over Overlord Commerce was immense, enough to risk everything. Thus, a chance at conquering a Holy Martial Stage demon beast would be quite the gamble.

However, only the Thunderstorm Roar Beast secretly laughed...

What method?

There wasn’t anything of the sort, the Young Master was merely deceiving the Soul Dominator’s Heir.

To conquer Holy Martial demon beasts required immense charisma, among other things. Its willingness to follow the Young Master was due to his ability to lead its evolution.

Additionally, its affection for the Qianwang Holy Tower played a part in its submission.

Beyond that, there weren’t any other methods.

Finally, Sikong Jing, dumbfounded thus far, couldn’t help but burst into laughter...

Then he lightly replied, "It is indeed very enticing, but before proposing this condition, Young Master, you should have Thunderstorm Roar Beast first sense the direction of Overlord City."

His voice had barely faded when the previously smiling Pei Yusheng froze abruptly, what did this mean?

What could be in the direction of Overlord City?

In response to Sikong Jing’s words, the Thunderstorm Roar Beast instinctively reached out to sense immediately.

In an instant...

Its enormous eyes constricted wildly, and it roared in disbelief, "There is a Holy Martial demon beast’s aura, charging this way."

As it spoke, Pei Yusheng turned dumbfounded—what Holy Martial demon beast?

Roar...

Before he could inquire further, a thunderous dragon’s roar echoed from the skies in the direction of Overlord City, followed by a violent wind gust sweeping in from the direction of the roar.

The wind was dark like pathways of black sword light merging with the air.

At this moment, the Thunderstorm Roar Beast shuddered again, exclaiming, "Holy Martial Stage, Dark Winged Dragon Eagle!"
