Chapter 519: Chapter 0519: Are You Playing Me?
To the end, Loren never understood why Lancelot wanted to kill him, why he would betray the Dark Council!
Loren just lay there limply in the pool of blood, with a look of unyielding death on his face.
"Lancelot, you did well," said the dwarf man with a face full of admiration, "but unfortunately, you also need to die!"
As his words fell, a fierce killing intent suddenly shot out from the dwarf man.
In the next moment, the dwarf man’s short figure suddenly vanished from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was already beside Ye Xunhuan, more precisely, in front of Lancelot.
The sudden appearance of the dwarf man caused Lancelot’s expression to change dramatically.
Then, before he could react, the dwarf man’s small figure leapt into the air, a cold gleam surfaced abruptly, heading straight for Lancelot’s throat!
"Puchi!"
The cold light directly sliced through Lancelot’s neck, more precisely, it severed his head.
The head rolled down from his shoulders, and Lancelot’s eyes widened in shock, filled with terror and disbelief.
Just like Loren, he never understood why the dwarf man wanted to kill him until his death!
Facing Loren and Lancelot lying in front of him, Ye Xunhuan’s face showed no trace of emotional fluctuation, not even a hint of regret.
Or rather, whether it was Lancelot or the dwarf man who struck, he was aware of it, but he simply didn’t intervene.
To him, Loren and Lancelot, just like the dwarf man in front of him, were all enemies. It didn’t matter much to him who died, and if they all could die, it would definitely be a cause for happiness for him.
However, it was clear that Ye Xunhuan’s wish would not come true!
"You played your little game quite well, bribing Lancelot to have Loren strike first, then sitting back to reap the benefits and ultimately killing Lancelot along with him. Not only does this save trouble, but it also conceals everything, ensuring that no one knows that this was the doing of people from the Divine Realm," Ye Xunhuan commented with admiration, "It makes everyone think the Taiji Seal is still in my hands."
Although Ye Xunhuan saw through the intentions of the dwarf man, he still didn’t make a move to stop him.
Not that he wanted to take the blame, but rather, whether he acted or not, the outcome would be the same. Lancelot was not going to live!
"Marshal, now that they are dead, only we remain!" the dwarf man asked coldly, ignoring Ye Xunhuan’s words, "Give me a straight answer about the Taiji Seal, make it quick!"
Ye Xunhuan did not reply to him but instead asked softly, "You must be the Lord of the Divine Realm, correct?"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, a look of surprise crossed the dwarf man’s face, but he quickly regained his composure, "Correct, I am Miyamoto Kojiro!"
If it had not been witnessed with their own eyes, perhaps no one would have thought that the Lord of the Divine Realm would be a dwarf!
"I am very curious about how you managed to come to Huaxia without alarming the Hidden Dragon," Ye Xunhuan said.
"Marshal, where there are people, there is a Jianghu, where there’s a Jianghu, there are interests and disputes," Miyamoto Kojiro stated gravely, "There are no eternal enemies, nor are there eternal friends!"
"As long as you can offer sufficient benefits to some people, I don’t think coming to Huaxia should be difficult, right?"
Miyamoto Kojiro’s words confirmed Ye Xunhuan’s suspicions at that moment; indeed, someone had colluded with foreign forces, bypassing the Hidden Dragon with deceiving tactics!
Otherwise, given the influence of the Hidden Dragon in Huaxia, it would have been impossible not to receive any news.
"Alright, Marshal, I’ve told you all you asked, now shouldn’t you hand over the Taiji Seal!" Miyamoto Kojiro had no intention of telling Ye Xunhuan who had colluded with him!
After all, he had to leave, and he might need the other party in the future, so it was better to leave a way out.
"Do you think that once I give you the Taiji Seal, you’ll be able to keep it safe?" Ye Xunhuan said indifferently. "Do you think that by killing those two, the news won’t get out?"
Miyamoto Kojiro snorted coldly, "Marshal, whether the news gets out is one thing; whether I can keep it safe is my business. You need not worry about it. Just answer me, will you give it to me or not!"
"Marshal, let me remind you of something. Since I dared to appear before you, I’m not afraid of you taking action."
"If you want to make a move, then try it, see if you can kill me in the shortest amount of time. If not, I advise you it’s better not to act but to hand over the Taiji Seal willingly!" Miyamoto Kojiro stated emphatically, "And just so you know, I am a ninja!"
Did Ye Xunhuan want to kill Miyamoto Kojiro?
The answer was yes, but he also knew that if he missed, Qiu Ruoxi would definitely become extremely dangerous.
Moreover, Miyamoto Kojiro was accompanied by people like Qianhuan Liuyun. Although they would not be a match for Ye Xunhuan, they could still cause a delay!
"I’ll give it to you!" Ye Xunhuan took a deep breath and said, "But the Taiji Seal is not on me, you’ll need to come with me to get it!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, a smile immediately spread across Miyamoto Kojiro’s face, "If that’s the case, then I’ll have Liu Yun go with you to get it!"
"No problem!"
"Liu Yun, follow the Marshal and get the Taiji Seal."
"Yes!"
Afterward, Ye Xunhuan and Qianhuan Liuyun left the place directly, and Miyamoto Kojiro did not follow.
Qianhuan Liuyun drove, following Ye Xunhuan’s directions, heading towards the listening-to-fragrance waterside residence villa.
In the car, Ye Xunhuan leaned back in his seat lazily, showing no worry about Qiu Ruoxi being in Miyamoto Kojiro’s hands.
"Beauty, you sure have a big life, always managing to survive."
"Marshal, don’t you think you should be worrying about your wife right now?"
"Your master is not a fool. He knows that if even the slightest thing happens to my wife, not only will he get nothing, but he will also completely enrage me!" Ye Xunhuan said softly, "That would only bring annihilation to your Divine Realm!"
Qianhuan Liuyun snorted coldly, ignoring Ye Xunhuan.
"Your plan this time must have been in the works for a long time, right?"
Qianhuan Liuyun completely ignored Ye Xunhuan. No matter what Ye Xunhuan said, Qianhuan Liuyun remained silent as if afraid that an inadvertent word would give something away.
Before they knew it, Qianhuan Liuyun had driven to the listening-to-fragrance waterside residence villa where Ye Xunhuan lived.
"Marshal, I advise you not to play any tricks!"
Ye Xunhuan shrugged helplessly, walked to his bedroom, and directly picked up a small wooden box from the bedside, tossing it to Qianhuan Liuyun, "What you want is in here. I hope you keep your promise!"
Qianhuan Liuyun’s face was filled with unprecedented surprise. The Taiji Seal they had been desperately vying for was treated like trash and left on a bedside by Ye Xunhuan?
Qianhuan Liuyun immediately opened the box. Two pieces of red and white antique jade stones were perfectly joined together, or rather, were formed together. Their shape was like Yin and Yang fishes entwined, making the shape of the Taiji. It looked just like a fossil!
"Marshal, are you playing me?" The color drained from Qianhuan Liuyun’s face.
