Chapter 679: The old man who plays with people’s hearts

"Do you know what the outcome of what you did today will be?" Kong Xiyan looked at him with a smile.

"Don't try to shake me. I'm doing this voluntarily." Gao Chengyi had already made up his mind.

"The only sacrifice is a willingness to die."

"What did you say?" Gao Chengyi was slightly stunned: "I'm not..."

"The Master has chosen you to be the sacrifice tonight, and it will be difficult for you to escape." Kong Xiyan said, "Every step you take is within his expectations.

You don't think the sacrificial ceremony is the same one you dragged my elder brother to do before, do you?

No.

Just like the truth about the Eastern Morning Star.

The death of the sacrifice can be done casually.

Not only should you be willing to do it, but you should also have a spirit of dedication.

These two conditions will be met when you decide to do something for Gao Qianqian.

From now on, as long as you die on this ship, the sacrifice will be completed."

Yes, the sacrifice must die on this ship.

"Impossible!" Gao Chengyi was stunned and pointed at the helicopter behind him and said, "I will leave in this helicopter. As long as I take it, I can..."

"Why don't you continue?" Kong Xiyan saw Gao Chengyi's voice getting smaller and smaller, smiled and said, "Did you remember something? Hmm? Gao Chengyi, you didn't really find anything, did you?

You are just deceiving yourself, thinking that you still have a chance, that you still have value, and that you are a useful person.

And I persistently think, what else can you do for Gao Qianqian.

This is to make up for some of the shit you did before."

The more Kong Xiyan spoke, the uglier Gao Chengyi's expression became.

"It's useless. When the damage has been done, your self-righteous devotion cannot make up for it. You will never be able to make up for the harm you have caused to Gao Qianqian. In the end, you will only be able to move yourself." Kong Xiyan paused and said, "It will also leave a new shadow on Gao Qianqian and make her become another Gao Bin."

"Shut up!" Gao Chengyi recalled Gao Bin's sinister look like a mantis, and his thin body that couldn't hold up a formal suit. He suddenly shuddered and glared at Kong Xiyan.

"Wake up." Kong Xiyan looked at Gao Chengyi without a trace of pity in her eyes: "No one can wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep, unless you wake up voluntarily. Gao Chengyi, you should be responsible for your actions.

But not on this ship, but in prison."

"It's not that I don't want to take responsibility, I just..." Gao Chengyi lowered his eyes slightly. He was just worried that if he really went in, Gao Qianqian would have no protection at all.

"You don't have to put on such an expression. Aren't all her troubles caused by you?" Kong Xiyan laughed: "It's just, very funny, right, Master?"

Kong Xiyan looked past Gao Chengyi and looked at the man who was holding Luo Zhenxuan.

The man was wearing a hat, his head lowered, and dark clothes, looking inconspicuous.

Hearing Kong Xiyan's words, Master slowly raised his head, revealing a strange face. He looked at Kong Xiyan with a smile: "I really underestimated you, didn't I?"

"Wearing a human skin mask for a long time is very harmful to your skin." Kong Xiyan said, "Boss Ye's face is the one that truly belongs to you, right?"

"you guess."

"I'm just a kid, and you still want me to guess?" Kong Xiyan smiled: "But since you have to guess, why not let me guess it thoroughly.

You are the master behind the Aphrodite, but not everyone submits to you.

That's why you built such a big fuss for the ship and replicated the sacrifice of that year.

Just to show those people that you are no worse than the previous Master.

This is the means to seek recognition...

Master, you killed the previous Master with your own hands, right?"

"Xiyan, I've told you before, you should be my daughter." Master looked at Kong Xiyan with a burning gaze, his eyes full of admiration: "We missed each other for too many years."

"Don't talk about such unlucky things. I can never be your daughter." Kong Xiyan's mouth twitched: "Just thinking about it makes me get goosebumps. It's something I'm physically disgusted with."

"You are still young. You don't understand the beauty of power, nor the joy of manipulating people's fate." The Master smiled and said, "I remember that the brother and sister of the Kong family always said that they would send you to the top of the world, right?

Do you know what it feels like to truly stand at the top of the world?

I've been in that position, I know.

It's loneliness and boredom.

It is the loneliness of watching so many people rushing towards death because of stupidity and being powerless to do anything.

I hate that feeling.

Xiyan, I'm doing this for your own good, okay?

No one in this world can truly guide you to the top except me.

The brother and sister of the Kong family are not good enough, and the head of the Kong family is even worse.

After all, he himself has never stood at the top. He had such an opportunity before, but he was a love-brained person.

He would rather give up everything and turn to another person at the last moment. It was extremely stupid.

Xiyan, you wouldn't make such a mistake, right?"

"Is this wrong?" Kong Xiyan smiled. "Why do I feel that compared to my loving adoptive parents, your lonely, boring, and desolate life is the real mistake?"

"That's the reality that people at the top have to face, it's everything they have to face. Do you know what it means to have no interest in anything?

When everything you want is right before your eyes, when the world works the way you want it to.

At that point, other people are no longer human beings to you."

"Haha." Kong Xiyan laughed even louder: "Do you know how ridiculous you look now?"

"When you reach the pinnacle, you won't feel that way anymore." The Master shrugged. "Before that, no matter how much I tell you, it will be meaningless."

"Then go tell the police." Kong Xiyan nodded slightly: "I believe you will have a lot to say to them."

"That's difficult." The Master curled his lips and said, "Are you still waiting for someone from the Xu family to come?"

"..." Kong Xiyan did not respond, but narrowed her eyes and looked at him.

"Didn't Gao Qianqian warn you before? All messages received by everyone on this ship will be intercepted." The Master said, "Actually, that's not enough. To be more precise, I can intercept and interfere with all signals in this sea area."

"You still have this ability?"

"Do you remember the laboratory that created the tsunami?" The Master spread his hands and said, "I never said there was only that one laboratory."

"Your plan is really meticulous."

"After all, I'm here to play with you. If I don't show my true abilities, how can I leave a lasting impression on you?"

"Then you succeeded. This memory is very deep." Kong Xiyan nodded slightly: "A pure beast even worse than Meng Xichao, an old scoundrel who is good at playing with people's hearts."

"As expected, I should arrange etiquette lessons for you." The Master frowned, looking helpless.

"Let's arrange your own funeral first." Kong Xiyan's gaze shifted to Luo Zhenxuan beside the Master: "Luo Lao San, hurry up."

"oh."
