#619 - Chapter 619 "Spirit of Contract"
“The Emperor of the Human Empire, the peerless Shi Wu Shuang.”
“Is he dying soon?”
“!”
The moment Xue Qingtian heard Wu Wei's words, she felt her scalp tingle.
Because she didn't expect Wu Wei to utter such rebellious words!
Especially in this situation.
“Why would you say that?”
Xue Qingtian widened her eyes, looking at the talkative demon before her, and said in a frightened tone.
“No, wait!”
“Why do you think so?”
Seeing Xue Qingtian's calmness, the talkative demon waved his hand.
“Just answer me directly, yes or no.”
“You damned lunatic!”
Xue Qingtian was speechless upon hearing the talkative demon's statement.
“Looking at my reaction, what do you think?”
Judging from Xue Qingtian's reaction, she probably really didn't know about it.
“Then you probably aren't clear.”
“But I always feel that the Emperor of our Human Empire is about to kick the bucket!”
“Hey!”
Xue Qingtian spat out.
“Don't use words like 'kick the bucket,' okay?”
“Okay.”
The talkative demon readily changed his wording.
“But I always feel that Shi Wu Shuang is about to fall!”
This damned lunatic, 'kick the bucket' and 'fall' are just two ways of saying the same thing!
Xue Qingtian felt she really couldn't listen anymore.
She helplessly said to Wu Wei.
“Alright, stop trying to trick me into talking.”
“Although I don't know what you're trying to do, I'm sure you've guessed something.”
“So what exactly do you want to know from me?”
Hearing Xue Qingtian say this, the talkative demon, or rather, Wu Wei, didn't see the need to pretend anymore.
And so.
“Okay, I'll ask you a different question, Xue Qingtian.”
“Which prince or princess has your Golden Silver Mountain Alliance decided to support?”
“Is it the Second Prince?”
“How do you kno....”
Xue Qingtian widened her eyes, looking at this "divine detective" before her in disbelief.
But the next second, she understood.
She had even called Luo Di of the Dark Covenant over, which probably became some kind of "evidence" in Wu Wei's eyes.
“No, no.”
“Wu Wei, the reason I was able to call Luo Di over was only because my father and Luo Di's father have a friendship.”
“As far as I know, our Golden Silver Mountain Alliance has no plans to support any prince or princess at the moment.”
“Although His Highness the Second Prince has a good personal relationship with our Golden Silver Mountain Alliance, the council of elders still has no intention of fully supporting him.”
“At least not openly, but these are just the opinions of the council of elders, and I'm not very clear on the details.”
“No.”
The talkative demon, representing Wu Wei's will, shook his head.
“Xue Qingtian, I need to tell you something.”
“Your uncle, Xue Jingsong, very clearly told me that your Golden Silver Mountain Alliance has decided to support the Second Prince of the Human Empire to ascend the throne.”
“What did you say? But how is that possible? The Golden Silver Mountain Alliance has always been openly....”
Xue Qingtian frowned.
She was unaware of this information.
But just as she was about to ask, Wu Wei interrupted her.
“Listen to me first.”
“Although the Golden Silver Mountain Alliance will not openly support any specific prince, Xue Jingsong said that this is a lie, and as a person of real power within the Golden Silver Mountain Alliance, Xue Jingsong himself actually supports the Seventh Princess, Shi Xuan. He is the Seventh Princess's agent in the lord era!”
“Xue Jingsong supports the Seventh Princess? The Golden Silver Mountain Alliance supports the Second Prince.”
“Could it be that this is the real reason why Uncle Xue Jingsong defected from the Golden Silver Mountain Alliance?”
“Everything is politically driven?”
“But, Wu Wei, what does this have to do with you saying His Majesty Shi Wu Shuang would… cough cough, I mean would fall?”
Xue Qingtian said in confusion.
“By the way, Xue Qingtian, I can now be considered the agent of the First Prince, Shi Renjun!”
“Which means.”
“The conflict between our three forces is essentially a proxy war between the Second Prince, the First Prince, and the Seventh Princess!”
“The three of us are puppets being manipulated!”
“And the power of these three princes and princesses is the string that controls us!”
Hearing Wu Wei say this, Xue Qingtian immediately understood what he was trying to say.
“Do you mean that the princes and princesses seem to be embroiled in an abnormal power struggle because Emperor Shi Wu Shuang's condition is not right?”
“Otherwise, they couldn't be so active!”
Seeing that Xue Qingtian finally understood him, Wu Wei nodded.
“That's right, that's what I mean.”
“That's why I asked you, asked you if you knew which prince your Golden Silver Mountain Alliance was loyal to.”
Hearing this, Xue Qingtian's expression became extremely solemn.
“What do you want to do?”
“Me?”
“What I want to do later has nothing to do with you.”
“Don't get me wrong, I'm talking to you just to confirm information.”
“Secondly, I think you just need to prepare enough money to complete our contract.”
After saying some "inexplicable" strange things, Xue Qingtian frowned and said another bunch of even more inexplicable words to Wu Wei.
“Prepare money?”
“Complete the contract?”
“What are you talking about, Wu Wei.”
Xue Qingtian really couldn't understand what Wu Wei was doing.
But soon, she understood.
Because Wu Wei actually showed Xue Jingsong, who was tied up tightly, to her through the abyss portal in front of Xue Qingtian.
“You!… You?”
“Why is this?”
Wu Wei grinned and said.
“Of course, I'm doing this to profit from both sides!”
“This guy Xue Jingsong only signed an agreement with me to protect him until the moment the era building was completed.”
“So, according to the contract I signed with him, I can completely kill him after the other party's era building is completed, and then complete my contract.”
“More importantly, after I kill him, I can also get extra money from the Golden Silver Mountain Alliance.”
“Isn't that great?”
Looking at Wu Wei grinning in front of her, Xue Qingtian's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Because she found that Wu Wei, this lunatic, didn't have any "contractual spirit"!
He was a purely profit-driven monster!
