I Use Illusions to Control the Whole World

[A rare illusion-type novel on the market: Nightmare Invasion + Original Instances]

Su Mu had the same dream every night.

And every time he woke up from the dream, his mental power woul...

Chapter 317 Are You Really Greedy?

"Report!"

Suddenly, the voices of guards shouting were heard outside the hall.

"Lord Dongfang requests to see His 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 face suddenly changed slightly when he saw this scene.

Dongfang Yuan and Sikong Zhen looked heavy-hearted and saluted the Red King.

"Your Majesty, Youcheng has been massacred, but Gongyang Shuo and others...ah." Dongfang Yuan sighed heavily, as if he had aged ten years in an instant. The white hair on the temples of this old man in his twilight years had become increasingly obvious.

"Lord Dongfang, are you two the only ones who came back alive this time?" Gongsun Quan narrowed his eyes slightly, and kept looking at Sikong Zhen with his peripheral vision.

"Well, if the vampires hadn't suddenly retreated, I'm afraid I wouldn't have survived. This matter is very strange, and I can't figure it out..."

“Lord Dongfang, the reason you came back alive is related to your arrogance. You were fighting in Phantom City before, so you don’t know what happened in the Blood Moon Empire, but the spies lurking in the Blood Moon Empire have already sent back the news.

It was Pride who brought lust, rage, and three substitute seats to the imperial capital. Pride 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 descending, completely destroying the entire palace.

The specific information in the palace is unknown, but the final result is that the Undead King compromised and ordered all seven deadly sins to leave. "

Dongfang Yuan was shocked, and an indelible look of shock appeared on his old face. He was shocked for a long time, opened his mouth, but seemed to have no idea what to say.

"Arrogant... Arrogant, who... who is he!?"

The entire hall fell silent and no one could answer his question.

Arrogance is too mysterious. He comes and goes without a trace. His abilities are extremely weird, and every time he appears, he refreshes the world's perception of him.

At first, the first time that arrogance appeared was when he killed a noble in public, breaking the unspoken rules of the imperial nobles. He killed the head of the Murong family, who was ranked Silver Three, in one blow, shocking the whole country. Everyone thought that he was a strong golden man who dared to trample on the rules.

The second time it appeared, its real body did not show up, but its subordinates killed Shen Tulie, a golden noble, together with hundreds of elites from the Law Enforcement Bureau. The terrifying organization of the Seven Deadly Sins surfaced. It was suspected that all of their members were golden warriors, and the threat level was even greater than that of the Revolutionary Army.

The third time they appeared, the three substitutes of the Seven Deadly Sins once again killed the golden masters of the Federal Pharmaceutical Company. Only then did the world know that the Seven Deadly Sins not only had seven golden masters, but even the substitutes were all golden!

The fourth time he appeared, Pride showed up at Prison 749 and rescued the leader of the Revolutionary Army in front of the Red King. No one could stop him. With the Blood Moon Empire secretly building momentum, rumors spread that Pride was the King of Gold. At this point, people thought that this was the limit of Pride, but little did they know that this was just the tip of the iceberg of Pride.

The fifth time, he appeared in the Blood Moon Empire, causing chaos in the capital, flooding the palace, and forcing the Undead King to compromise. No one knew what the Undead King had been through, but everyone knew that the Undead King would never compromise, and no one in the world could make him compromise. However, perhaps Arrogant was not a human being at all, but, as he said, a god of the new era!

"Compared to the arrogant identity, I am more curious about another thing." Gongsun Quan suddenly looked at Sikong Zhen.

Sikong Zhen frowned slightly, somewhat confused.

"Master Sikong, only a few of us present knew about the operation of pretending to be the Seven Deadly Sins, but during the operation, the real Seven Deadly Sins actually appeared... Moreover, when they returned this time, even Master Dongfang was seriously injured, and Master Gongyang and others were killed. Excuse me, Master Sikong, among the people in this operation, except for you, they are all veteran gold masters. I am not surprised that Master Dongfang can come back alive, but you..."

Sikong Zhen's expression suddenly changed: "Do you suspect that I am a spy for the Seven Deadly Sins?!"

Gongsun Quan looked at him silently without saying a word. Dongfang Yuan also realized that something was wrong. He had felt strange before, why it was Sikong Zhen who survived.

"Well, Sikong Zhen! I didn't expect that you, with 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 at Sikong Zhen.

thump!

Sikong Zhen knelt down in front of the Red King in fear and said, "Your Majesty! I am innocent! The Sikong family has been loyal to the royal family for generations. Heaven and earth are witnesses, and the sun and the moon are witnesses! I am definitely not a spy for the Seven Deadly Sins!"

Gongsun Quan continued, "I was wondering before, when you and Shen Tulie surrounded the members of the Seven Deadly Sins, why did everyone die, and only you survived? At that time, there were three golden masters, Envy, Gluttony, and Lust, and they had clearly killed Shen Tulie. With three people against you, they could easily kill you, but they didn't.

Sir Sikong, can you explain why this is happening?"

"Of course it's because I'm stronger than Shentu Lie and I'm good at speed, so they can't keep me." Sikong Zhen said without hesitation.

Dongfang Yuan suddenly said: "Master Sikong, the outside world has spread rumors that you are the first god of war in the empire. It is said that Dongfang is old and Sikong should be the successor. It is because you can escape from the hands of the seven deadly sins. However, in this mission, your performance seems to be worse than that of the deceased Lord Gongyang and others...

Have you heard so many rumors that you believe them yourself, or have you been hiding your true colors from the beginning? Are you trying your best to hide your identity as the Seven Deadly Sins?

Sir Sikong, you...are you really the seven deadly sins of greed?"

When these words came out, Sikong Zhen's heart almost broke. The expression on his face was almost complicated beyond human limits. He pointed at himself in disbelief.

Trembling, "I....Greedy?"

Dongfang Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and his analysis became more incisive: "As far as I know, Greed has appeared twice, and both times Greed was pretended by you, Lord Sikong. If you are not Greed, where is the real Greed?"

Sikong Zhen: "......"

It split, this time it really split. He never thought that he had only played the role of greed twice, but in the end he actually became greedy. This was too unfair! ?

The most important thing is that he couldn't explain the doubts raised by Dongfang Yuan 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 a little hesitation.

His suspicion was reasonable because greed had never appeared, and the seven deadly sins allowed themselves to pretend to be greed every time. If greed really existed, why didn't it cause trouble for themselves?

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.
