Chapter 307 Another one killed by trickery
Sima Xun'er stared at Kongming with a complicated expression, but at this moment she naturally understood everything.
Zhuge Kongming is the same as Zhuge Liang!
Not long after she returned to her family from the Holy City, she heard that a man named Zhuge Kongming had impersonated her family's holy envoy and was killed by her family.
However, she didn't take it to heart. It was just an insignificant doll; once it died, it was gone!
However, she could never have imagined that Kongming was not only still alive, but also, under the alias Zhuge Liang, had single-handedly wiped out the entire army of the three ancient clans in this secret realm.
"Xun'er, do you have some connection with this person?"
Just then, a figure darted out of the cave; it was none other than Sima Kun. He was hunched over, clearly seriously injured, and his gaze swept back and forth between Sima Xun'er and Kongming.
Before Sima Xun'er could answer, he spoke again: "Fellow Daoist, we are not mortal enemies. Why don't we work together to find a way out of this place? As long as you agree, my Sima family will forgive and forget what you did in this secret realm. Once we get out, I will immediately arrange for Xun'er to marry you. What do you say?"
"Second Uncle, there's nothing between us..."
"Shut up!" Sima Kun shouted, interrupting Sima Xun'er, and turned his gaze back to Kongming.
Kongming's expression remained unchanged, but he sneered inwardly, "If I said that all three ancient clans must die, what would you do then?"
Upon hearing this, Sima Kun's face darkened abruptly, and a sinister glint flashed in his eyes.
But in an instant, he forced a smile, "Fellow Daoist Zhuge, I understand you have concerns. I solemnly swear here that I will never mention a word about what happened in this Daoist temple after we leave. Furthermore, I will definitely keep my promise and betroth my niece to you. In this way, we will be family, sharing both glory and loss!"
"Hahaha... I'd rather believe a dead man!" Kongming laughed heartily, his eyes full of disdain for Sima Kun's words.
Sima Kun's smile froze instantly, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes. He tentatively asked, "Are you so confident you can kill me?"
"Hehe... Ji Rong said something similar too!" Kongming's lips curled into a smile, his eyes full of mockery.
Upon hearing Ji Rong's name, Sima Kun's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately sensed something was wrong. He asked, "Has Ji Rong already been killed by you?"
Kongming remained calm, lightly flicking his feather fan, a hint of mockery appearing on his face. "Not only was Ji Rong killed by me, but I also dealt with the Xuanyuan family cultivator who escaped from your grasp!"
Upon hearing this, Sima Kun's heart sank to the bottom. It seemed that Kongming was not lying; Ji Rong was beyond dead.
Only he knows the extent of his injuries. Staring at the "Old Six Pearls" hovering above Kongming's head, he gritted his teeth in hatred.
A direct confrontation is risky! Even dragging things out will only lead to our demise at the hands of those strange beads.
Although Sima Kun was filled with shock and anger, he quickly calmed down and tried to find another way out. "Hmph, at this time, the outside of the secret realm must have been controlled by the three ancient families. If you don't see us leave, do you think you can get away? So, you have no choice but to come with me!"
"Hahaha... You're overthinking it! Have you forgotten that I can control the Demon Rakshasa? At worst, I'll make her transform into a demon again. I don't believe your family patriarchs will be waiting outside!" Kongming laughed loudly, his eyes full of composure and confidence.
"The Demon Rakshasa?"
Upon hearing these three words, Sima Kun's pupils contracted sharply, a tremor from his very soul rushed to his head, his mental defenses collapsed instantly, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
Kongming keenly noticed the change in Sima Kun's expression, seized the opportunity, and suddenly sprang into action. The "Old Six Pearls" shone brightly, carrying terrifying gravity, and crashed down on Sima Kun like a meteor falling to earth.
Sima Kun sensed the impending danger and snapped back to his senses, but it was too late to dodge. He could only muster all his strength to hastily conjure a layer of magical shield.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the "Old Six Pearls" instantly shattered Sima Kun's magical shield like dry leaves, and slammed solidly into Sima Kun's chest.
Sima Kun felt an overwhelming force surge towards him, and he was slammed into the opposite mountain wall by this immense force, thousands of feet deep.
The stone wall shattered into pieces under the force of the terrifying gravity, sending dust flying everywhere.
"Hehehe... Didn't expect 'Old Six Pearls' could be used as a rock, did you! I was tricked to death like that back then..."
The old spirit of the artifact laughed wildly, its laughter sharp and somewhat manic. Now that Sima Kun was suffering the same fate, it felt incredibly pleased...
