Chapter 317 Are You Really Greedy?
"Report!"
The guards suddenly shouted outside the hall.
"Master Dongfang asks to see your Majesty."
"Come in."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Not long after, the seriously injured Dongfang Yuan and Sikong Zhen walked in, and behind them, there were three coffins floating.
Gongsun Quan's expression changed slightly when he saw this scene.
Dongfang Yuan and Sikong Zhen looked grave and saluted to the Red King.
"Your Majesty, Youcheng has been massacred, but Gong Yangshuo and others... Sigh." Dongfang Yuan sighed heavily, as if he had aged ten years in an instant. This frail old man had increasingly white hair on his temples. obvious.
"Master Dongfang, are you two the only ones who come back alive this time?" Gongsun Quan narrowed his eyes slightly, and kept looking at Sikong Zhen vaguely from the corner of his eye.
"Well, if the vampires hadn't suddenly retreated, I might not have been able to survive. This matter is very strange, and I can't figure it out..."
"Master Dongfang, your ability to come back alive has something to do with arrogance. You fought in Youcheng before, so you don't know what happened in the Blood Moon Empire, but the empire's spies lurking in the Blood Moon Empire have sent back the news.
It was Arrogance who caused a disturbance in the imperial capital with lust, rage, and three candidates. Arrogance even broke into the palace alone, suspected of opening the door to the nightmare world, summoning endless sea water and undead monsters, and even the breath of gods descended, covering the entire palace. Complete destruction.
The specific information inside the palace is unknown, but the final result is that the Immortal King compromised and ordered all seven deadly sins to leave. "
Dongfang Yuan was shocked, and a look of shock appeared on his old face. He was shocked for a long time and opened his mouth, but he didn't seem to know what to say.
"Arrogant...arrogant, he...who the hell is he!?"
The entire hall fell into silence, and no one could answer his question.
Arrogance is so mysterious, he comes and goes without a trace, his abilities are extremely weird, and every time he appears, he refreshes the world's understanding of him.
At first, Arrogance first appeared when he killed a noble in public, breaking the unspoken rules of the imperial nobility, killing the Murong family head Bai Yin San with one strike, shocking the whole country, and everyone thought he was a golden man who dared to trample on the rules.
The second time he appeared, the real body did not appear, but his subordinates killed Shen Tulie, a golden noble, and hundreds of law enforcement bureau elites. The Seven Deadly Sins, a terrifying organization, surfaced, and it was suspected that all the golden nobles were strong. The threat level Even more than the revolutionary army.
Appearing for the third time, the three candidates for the Seven Deadly Sins once again killed the golden man of United Pharmaceutical Company. At this time, the world knew that not only did the Seven Deadly Sins only have seven gold medals, but even the alternate members were gold!
The fourth time he appeared, Arrogance appeared in Prison 749 and rescued the leader of the revolutionary army in front of the Red King. No one could stop him. In addition, the Blood Moon Empire was secretly building momentum. Rumors about Arrogance being the King of Gold spread everywhere. At this point, the world thinks that this is the limit of arrogance, but everyone knows that this is just the tip of the iceberg of arrogance.
The fifth time, he appeared in the Blood Moon Empire, causing a riot in the imperial capital, flooding the palace, and forcing the Immortal King to compromise. No one knew what the Immortal King had gone through, but everyone knew that it was impossible for the Immortal King to compromise. No one in this world can make him compromise. However, maybe Arrogance is not a human at all, but as he said, he is the god of the new era!
"I'm more curious about another thing than my arrogant identity." Gongsun Quan suddenly looked at Sikong Zhen.
Sikong Zhen frowned slightly, a little confused.
"Lord Sikong, only a few of us present knew about this act of pretending to be the Seven Deadly Sins. But when we acted, the real Seven Deadly Sins actually appeared... Moreover, even Lord Dongfang was pregnant this time when he returned. He was seriously injured, and Master Gongyang and others even died. With all due respect, Master Sikong, among the people in this operation, except for you, they are all veteran gold experts. I am not surprised that Master Dongfang can come back alive, but you......."
Sikong Zhen's expression suddenly changed: "You suspect that I am a spy for the Seven Deadly Sins!?"
Gongsun Quan stared at him silently without saying anything. Dongfang Yuan also realized that something was wrong. He had previously wondered why Sikong Zhen was the one who survived.
"Okay, Sikong Zhen! I didn't expect that you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, would actually betray the empire!" The Red King said angrily. He was so angry that he forgot to pretend to be a king for a moment.
However, Dongfang Yuan and Gongsun Quan had no time to pay attention to her at this time, but stared directly at Sikong Zhen.
thump!
Sikong Zhen knelt down in front of the Red King in fear: "Your Majesty! I am wronged! The Sikong family has been loyal to the royal family for generations, and heaven and earth are proof of this! I am definitely not a spy for the Seven Deadly Sins!"
Gongsun Quan continued: "I was thinking before that when you and Shen Tu Lie encircled and suppressed the members of the Seven Deadly Sins, everyone died and you were the only one who survived. At that time, there were three strong golden men: jealousy, gluttony, and lust. , obviously they have already killed Shen Tulie, three people against you and one person can kill you easily, but they didn't.
Lord Sikong, can you explain why this is? "
"Of course it's because I'm stronger than Shen Tulie and good at speed, so they can't keep me." Sikong Zhen said without hesitation.
Dongfang Yuan suddenly said: "Lord Sikong, it is widely rumored that you are the number one god of war in the empire. It is said that Dongfang Yilao and Sikong are the most powerful because you can escape from the hands of the Seven Deadly Sins. But in this mission, your performance It seems that it is not as good as the dead Lord Gongyang and others...
Did you tell so many rumors that you even believed them, or were you hiding your stupidity from beginning to end? Are you trying your best to hide the identity of the Seven Deadly Sins?
Lord Sikong, you...can't really be one of the seven deadly sins of greed, right? "
As soon as he said this, Sikong Zhen's heart almost burst. The expression on his face was almost beyond the limits of human beings. He pointed at himself in disbelief.
Trembling: "I'm...greedy??"
Dongfang Yuan narrowed his eyes, and his analysis became sharper: "As far as I know, greed has appeared twice in total, and the greed that appeared in these two times was pretended by you, Lord Sikong. If you are not greedy, the real greed is where?"
Sikong Zhen: "......"
It cracked, this time it really cracked. He never thought that he only acted greedy twice, but in the end he actually became greedy. This is so unfair! ?
The most important thing is that he can't explain Dongfang Yuan's doubts at all! Because even he himself didn't know why he survived these two times.
"Maybe there is no greed at all?" Sikong Zhen said with some hesitation.
His suspicion is reasonable, because greed has never appeared, and the seven deadly sins allow him to pretend to be greedy every time. If there is really greed, why not find trouble for himself?
He didn't think that the Seven Deadly Sins who dared to destroy the Blood Moon Palace would not dare to cause trouble for him.
