Forthat one moment, Guan Yi felt like Jiang Ning had seen through him completely.
He didn't know what Jiang Ning was thinking about, but it seemed like Jiang Ning had read his mind from just looking at him. How could this be?
Guan Yi tried to calm himself down. He didn't know why he suddenly had this feeling. It was so strange.Original content from .
"I have something to talk to you about." He didn't want to beat around the bush.
It seemed pointless to beat around the bush with someone like Jiang Ning.
"Do you know what sort of place the Underworld is?"
"I know a thing or two," said Jiang Ning.
He didn't say yes, but he didn't say no either.
Not answering any questions clearly during a negotiation was often the best way to do it.
Guan Yi started to get annoyed, but he tried to remain patient.
He knew that his first move was already wrong and he no longer had any control over the situation. It was too hard to turn things around now.
"The Underworld is just like the Heavenly Palace. They belong to a different dimension. If the Heavenly Palace is in a second dimension, then the Underworld would be considered the third dimension. And the Underworld is a place that refuses to fall behind the Heavenly Palace."
"So you destroyed the Heavenly Palace?" asked Jiang Ning.
"That's just one of the reasons."
Guan Yi thought that Jiang Ning's curiosity had been piqued and he would surely ask about the other reasons.
But Jiang Ning just nodded and didn't ask anymore. He just quietly looked at Guan Yi and waited for him to go on.
Even when Guan Yi didn't look like he was going to continue talking, Jiang Ning didn't get anxious. It looked like he was prepared to just wait for another two minutes, and if Guan Yi didn't say anything, Jiang Ning would just see him out.
"The Demon King has been searching for something, and it could be inside the Heavenly Palace," Guan Yi eventually caved in and broke his silence.
"What is he looking for?" asked Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning always had that expression on. He seemed to be asking questions casually and didn't care if you answered him or not. But if you didn't answer him, then he was just going to walk you out.
He was in no hurry and didn't feel any pressure. But Guan Yi's situation was very different.
He had betrayed Greedy Wolf, so there was only one conclusion to that. Either Greedy Wolf died, or he did.
If he wanted Greedy Wolf dead, he had to join forces with Jiang Ning and make use of Jiang Ning to kill Greedy Wolf.
Otherwise, he was definitely going to die.
"I don't know." Guan Yi shook his head.
Even if he knew, he didn't want to tell Jiang Ning.
Talking to Jiang Ning might send him to an early grave.
He would die from getting too angry!
He had tried to wait it out and see if Jiang Ning
initiativ could take a little more
but Jiang Ning continued
to wear that expression on his face and didn't seem to care at all. en.swhovels.net
"I've come here to tell you that the Demon King is back and he will definitely continue searching for this thing. Once he finds it, the Heavenly Palace will never get the chance to revive again," said Guan Yi "We
could work together."
Once they decided to work together, Jiang Ning would be the knife in his hand. He would be able to use this knife to deal with Greedy Wolf.
"Why should I work with you?" Jiang Ning shook his head. "I don't care about this Heavenly Palace. Whether it can be revived or not has nothing to do with me."
"Aren't you afraid he'll come looking for you?"
"Whatever for? Come here to get killed?" said Jiang Ning calmly. "It's best that he minds his own business and I mind my own. He knows what will happen if he tries to provoke me." After that, Jiang Ning just waved his hands about.
"I thought you had some new information for me. I'm not interested in anything you've just said at all. I'm sorry but I have other matters to attend to, please leave."
Jiang Ning spoke very calmly. His
emotions seemed completely
unaffected by the little bit of
information Guan Yi had purposely
revealed to him, and he was t
taking the bait at all.
He knew that Guan Yi was saying all this to pique his curiosity and slowly lure him into a trap.
Jiang Ning was already tired of such stupid games a long time ago.
Guan Yi was stunned.
He looked up at Jiang Ning. "The Demon King is not that sort of person! He will kill anybody who stands in his way!"
