No matter how much the twins struggled, they were eventually cornered on the edge of a cliff. At this point, Master Cao gave up the idea of capturing them and just wanted to kill them quickly, since he was now backed into a corner.
An organization capable of cultivating young grandmasters is definitely not one he can afford to offend. But at this point, even begging for mercy is useless. He himself understands that he is doomed to die. He just wants to take two people down with him before he dies, and if he can capture them alive, he will do so.
Having survivors is the key to negotiation, but the twins showed no sign of surrendering. He knew he had dragged things out for too long, and their reinforcements might be arriving soon.
If he doesn't kill now, all his efforts will be in vain if he delays any longer. The one who died was not only his apprentice, but also his illegitimate son. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so angry and so reckless.
However, this guy still thinks he can put up a fight with his cultivation level. After all, it is indeed very difficult to kill someone who has reached the fourth realm. If you can't beat them, you can usually run away. People who can cultivate to the fourth realm Grandmaster level must have some trump cards to save their lives.
That's why I sent out four top-tier warriors at once, to ensure that no matter what happens, I can kill him. With the lineup I've sent out now, even if a random Fifth Realm expert were to interfere, it wouldn't stop me from killing Old Cao.
After all, as I've always done, if you mess with me, I can put aside my hatred and make peace with you, but if you touch my woman, it's a matter of life and death. So I have to be careful not to let anyone see through my act.
I could only let Lao Cao die silently in that nameless corner, but I didn't personally intervene, as that would have been too disrespectful to him.
When Lao Cao finally cornered the twins on a cliff, he still wanted to persuade them a little more, because he was still a little reluctant to ask them to completely give up their family fortune and wander the world.
We should still try our best to save it if there's any chance.
"If you two surrender now, I can guarantee your lives, as long as you tell me where my disciple is."
He thought he was already in a very good position, but he was just being self-satisfied. The twins had been bothering him for so long that they had reached their limit and were completely ignoring Lao Cao.
He sat down on the edge of the cliff to rest, his eyes filled with disdain as he looked at Lao Cao.
That old guy is still dreaming.
"Old man, it's time to settle things. We killed your apprentice, and we've already thrown him into the mountains to feed the wild animals. We've had our fun, and we're done playing around."
After the older sister finished speaking, the younger sister mischievously shouted into the forest, "Which powerful being is coming to save us this time? We're too tired to play anymore, can someone save us?"
Old Cao was also very nervous when he heard his sister's cries, but he soon stopped being nervous because all of them suddenly became unable to move.
Ming walked out with a chuckle, his signature gait. The other three didn't show up, after all, Cao was no easy opponent.
To even call him an opponent would be an insult; he's just an old codger without any self-awareness. Just as Doflamingo was about to make a few sarcastic remarks, a sharp knife suddenly darted out from the shadows in the forest and stabbed straight at Doflamingo's throat.
The incident happened so suddenly that Aizen didn't even have time to react before Doflamingo was stabbed.
