Chapter 0102: It’s Better for You to Live-Absolute Returns
by GreatBrother(위대한 다오 형제)When I said that I was the son of a Heavenly Demon, everyone present froze, including Fei Siyin, Xu Zhengtai, and the seven Thirteen Wolves of the Evil Dao.
“You …… are really Jian Wuji?” The muscles on Fei Si Yin’s face twitched violently, and his voice became even lower and hoarser.
“As in fake.” I replied in a calm tone.
Fei Si Yin turned his head to look at the Extremely Evil Evil Demon, as if he was trying to get confirmation from him. “Dare I ask Lord Demon, is what this person said true?”
“In this world, who else dares to impersonate the Sect Leader’s bloodline in front of this seat?” The Extremely Evil Evil Demon coldly asked back.
His words were the best proof. Unless the Extremely Evil Evil Demon was insane, it would never be possible to recognize an imposter.
“What are you doing here?” Fei Shi Yin withdrew his gaze and looked at me again, his eyes filled with caution.
It seems that although the Thirteen Wolves of the Evil Dao knew that the Extremely Evil Evil Demon had left the Demon Sect, they didn’t know that I was traveling with him.
“I’m here for the same reason you are, to calm the storm. Aren’t you?” I asked rhetorically.
Instead of answering my question, Fei Shi Yin pressed on, “How did you recognize me?”
Of course I couldn’t tell him that I had traveled back from the future.
“It is said that when two of the Thirteen Wolves of the Evil Dao join forces, they can rival a Demon Elder. But today, you brought eight Evil Dao Thirteen Wolves here, it’s a bit of a fuss, isn’t it?” I deliberately said in an evasive manner.
“That doesn’t say much, does it?” There was a hint of skepticism in Fei Shi Yin’s tone.
“So I watched you carefully. Usually, important people are protected in the center, so I focused on you. Sure enough, although you and the others are dressed in the same way, your shoes are different, they are treasures that are hard to see in the Central Plains. There is also the sword you are wearing, which is by no means an extraordinary item. Most importantly, when you teamed up earlier to release your true qi, your true qi operated in a slightly different way than the others, obviously due to the fact that you rarely practiced together.”
“You can really tell these subtle differences?” Fei Shi Yin’s face became a bit ugly.
I nodded, and his expression became even more somber. Although it was just a simple movement of true qi that didn’t reveal an obvious difference in strength, being pointed out in public to point out a breakage wasn’t something honorable after all.
“There is another reason.” I paused and continued, “I noticed that Family Master Xu was communicating with you in a voice transmission. For such an important occasion, yet you still have to ask others for their opinions, it’s obvious that your status is not enough. Someone who can command seven Thirteen Wolves of the Evil Dao, wear fancy clothes and a sword, and still make the Xu Family Master listen to his words, who else could it be but you?”
“You ……” Fei Si Yin was suddenly speechless, his face a burst of green and white.
“Senior brother, you’re awesome!”
“Worthy of a male, you are indeed smart!”
The Extremely Evil Evil Demon and Li An transmitted their voices to me almost simultaneously, their tones filled with admiration.
“You’re actually saying the same thing as the Extremely Evil Evil Demon?” I somewhat cried and laughed as I transmitted my voice to Li An.
“It seems that senior brother has already been recognized by both the righteous and evil paths.” Li An responded mischievously.
“Whose side are you on?”
“Senior!”
If it was just the two of us, I wouldn’t hesitate to crack a few jokes with her, but right now I could only hold back my laughter and put on a serious face.
The reactions of the Extremely Evil Evil Demon and Li An made Fei Si Yin even more embarrassed.
“I’m so jealous of you.” I said suddenly.
“What do you envy me for?” Fei Shi Yin asked in disbelief.
“You’ve already established yourself as the heir, and I’m still fighting for it.” There was a hint of helplessness in my tone.
The corners of Fei Shi Yin’s mouth twitched as if he was trying to smile, but because of the scars on his face, the smile looked particularly grim.
I could see why he was smiling so forcedly.
Although he had been internally designated as the successor of the Thirteen Wolves of the Evil Dao, the struggles within the Evil Dao Alliance never stopped.
He has already suffered three assassinations, one of which nearly killed him. Since there are so many people who covet the position of heir, he has not been able to find out who is behind it so far.
This was why he had seven Evil Dao Thirteen Wolves with him for protection.
But as I recall, he was eventually assassinated.
I wonder if my presence will change his fate?
Will it follow a set trajectory or head into an unknown future?
Just then, an old man with white hair walked out from among the seven Thirteen Wolves of the Evil Dao, took off his bucket hat, and arched his hand toward me.
“Old me, White Iron Rider, leader of the Thirteen Wolves of the Evil Dao.”
He was the leader of the Thirteen Wolves of the Evil Dao and a close associate of the Evil Dao Alliance Master.
Back then, when Fei Shiyin was injured and disfigured, he had been harboring guilt that he had failed to protect the young lord. Later, when Fei Shi Yin was assassinated, he ended up dying with the assassin in order to protect him.
I was pretty impressed with White Iron Rider, maybe because he reminded me of Lee Ann, who would do anything to protect someone important.
“I’ve heard for a long time that the Second Prince of the Demon Sect has superb swordsmanship, and when I see it today, it really lives up to its name.” White Iron Rider said in an amiable tone.
“Elder is overpraising, I only know a little bit about it.”
“For martial artists, eyesight is sometimes more important than martial arts.”
“Thanks for the compliment, senior.”
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Bai Tiejie stated the true purpose of this trip. “Today, Young Lord himself did not come just to settle the merchant group matter.”
“What was that for?” I asked knowingly.
“Someone wants to use a knife to kill people and provoke a war between the Demon Sect and the Evil Dao Alliance.”
“Who are they?” The Extremely Evil Evil Demon interjected and asked.
The white iron rider shook his head. “We don’t know.”
The Extremely Evil Evil Demon turned his head to look at me, as if he wanted to get an answer from me.
“It should be those who covet the position of heir to the Evil Dao Alliance.” I said after pondering for a moment.
Both Bai Tiejie and Fei Shi Yin showed surprised expressions, clearly being caught in my words.
“How do you know?” Fei Shi Yin couldn’t help but ask.
“Because you came in person.” I explained, “If it wasn’t a matter of your own safety, you’d never do it yourself.”
“Now that you’ve guessed, please return. It’s better for everyone if you leave here.” There was a hint of warning in Fei Shi Yin’s tone.
“We have a condition too.” I said without budging.
“On what terms?”
“Immediately give up all of the Hundred Rings Merchant Group’s properties in Guizhou and compensate Lord Demon Lord for his losses over the years.”
My words stunned everyone present. Even the Extremely Evil Evil Demon revealed an expression of disbelief.
The first one to jump out and object was naturally Xu Zhengtai, the owner of the Hundred Rings Merchant Group. “What did you say? Giving up all your industries? And compensation? This is simply bullying!”
I glanced at him coldly. “It seems that there are no rules in the Hundred Rings Merchant Guild, and the subordinates actually dare to interrupt the master’s conversation.”
That was a bit of a weak statement, after all, the hierarchy within the Demon Cult was also shaped like a sham.
“You ……” Xu Zhengtai was speechless and furious.
“I’ll agree to your conditions for him.” Fei Shi Yin interrupted Seo Jung-tae’s words and said coldly.
