Chapter 527: A Twisted Situation [Wise's Special Chapter for Baiyin Alliance]
Sikuang Dou's mouth was foaming.
"He's really good at making things up. I almost fell for it for a moment..."
"Do you think I'm stupid? Do you two think that after eight thousand years of experience in the Jianghu, my brain has turned into that of a dog? Huh?!"
Sikuang Dou roared.
Si Kong Ye sighed helplessly and turned to look at Fang Che.
Fang Che sighed, "I knew we couldn't fool him."
Si Kong Ye also sighed, "If we can't fool him, then we can't. What can we do? It's not just you, I'm younger than him too. He has enough experience and his understanding of human nature is even more profound. Our little tricks are seen through by him at a glance, even though it's unexpected, it's still normal."
Fang Che said dejectedly, "With our experience, to play tricks and schemes in front of such an old Jianghu expert is really... sigh, it's just asking for ridicule."
Si Kong Ye chuckled, "I've reminded you before. My brother is the number one thief on the continent. Do you think he could have achieved that without any brains? Even Xuefuxiao, although he's strong, is he the number one on the continent?"
Fang Che stumbled, "It's not that our brains aren't working."
Sikuang Dou glared coldly at the two of them.
Although he knew that these two were just changing their tactics to flatter him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.
Exactly!
There are many talented people in this world, but who dares to firmly occupy the top spot?
Dongfang Sansan firmly occupies the top spot in wisdom; Zheng Yuan Dong firmly occupies the top spot in martial arts. Who else is there?
Only I, firmly occupy the top spot as the number one thief!
In other words, I, Dongfang Sansan, and Zheng Yuan Dong are of the same caliber!
Just as Sikuang Dou was thinking this, Fang Che spoke up, "Actually, we've been thinking wrong. Brother's status is not as we imagined before. Strictly speaking, Brother, Guardian Grand Strategist Jiu, and the Supreme Leader of the Only Righteous Sect are all of the same caliber."
Night Emperor frowned, "I know you want to flatter me, but saying this is really going too far..."
Sikuang Dou immediately furrowed his brows and glared at Night Emperor, saying, "What do you mean? Do you think I gave myself the title of the number one in the world?"
Night Emperor said, "Of course you didn't give it to yourself, but compared to them..."
Sikuang Dou became angrier, "So what if I'm compared to them? Am I a thief who lost your person?"
"Little brother dares not."
Night Emperor sighed.
Fang Che said, "Brother, your thinking is narrow-minded. Being the number one in the world is just that, the number one in the world. There's nothing to say about it. Even if it's playing the flute or playing the piano, as long as no one in the world can match it, then that's the number one in the world. Do we have to compare a flute player to the Supreme Leader of the Only Righteous Sect? If we can't beat Zheng Yuan Dong, does that mean playing the piano isn't the number one in the world? That's not reasonable. And that's the case with Brother. I feel that Brother's number one status is not only unprecedented, but also unmatched in the future!"
"Even if it's the Supreme Leader of the Only Righteous Sect, Zheng Yuan Dong, who has dedicated his entire life to being the number one in martial arts, what does it matter? Several tens of thousands of years ago, the Nine Supreme Techniques were the number one in martial arts, weren't they? And Brother's status as the number one thief, has anyone ever heard of it before? Even if there is one in the future, it's just following in Brother's footsteps, nothing more."
This statement truly resonated with Sikuang Dou.
Stroking his sparse beard, he looked down at Night Emperor and said, "Listen, it's only this little brother who understands. You say I have a brother like you, other than worrying for you, he's just making me angry. After so many years, he still doesn't understand anything."
Night Emperor's head was filled with black lines.
With Fang Che's cooperation, he had stepped into the mud!
This was simply...
Fang Che quickly tried to smooth things over. Sikuang Dou had deviated from Night Emperor's expected path from the beginning; after arguing for so long, Night Emperor was already losing his composure, and the trend of an impending explosion was evident.
He was also afraid that Night Emperor would suddenly explode, which would not only ruin their plan but also create a huge embarrassment. There was no choice but to step in and smooth things over himself.
He hurriedly said, "Boss, my brother is also the number one in the world, right? Night Emperor's power shakes the world, and now with his full recovery, unifying the southeast is just a matter of time. Even if he were to conquer the entire underground world of the continent in the future, it's only a matter of time."
Sikuang Dou chuckled, "Just him? Haha..."
Night Emperor became angry, "What's wrong with me?"
"Someone made me stink for two thousand years." Sikuang Dou rolled his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Night Emperor also rolled his eyes.
Fang Che almost laughed out loud: these two brothers rolling their eyes together, four white eyes, and not a single black pupil, the comedic effect was too strong!
"There's no choice but to be tricked." Fang Che said.
"Haha, whether it's a person or a ghost, I can't see clearly. Night Emperor, night blindness is more like it. He falls for any scheme, and has to be saved by his brother, serving him for two thousand years... isn't that embarrassing! Night Emperor... pfft!"
Sikuang Dou hummed.
Night Emperor became flustered.
His brother was speaking the truth, and he couldn't refute it. His face turned red as he said, "Little brother is still here, can't you give me some face?"
Sikuang Dou became furious, "You want face? Then send your brother to jail?"
"Not only have I lost face, but I'm also risking my life!"
"But you came out too, right? And since it was designed this way, how could we pull it off without involving you?"
"So I deserve to be played by you?"
The two brothers were about to get into an argument.
Fang Che's head started pounding.
Fortunately, after a few words, they stopped and huffed, rolling their eyes before turning their heads away.
Fang Che sighed, "You two have such a great relationship."
"Do we have a good relationship?" they both asked, then closed their mouths, both with a contemptuous tone.
Fang Che burst out laughing and put his arm around Sikong Dou's shoulder, saying, "Actually, big brother, let me tell you something, but don't get upset."
"Go ahead."
Sikong Dou spoke.
"He's your younger brother. Even if he takes advantage of you, what's the big deal? Moreover, he didn't even have any ill intentions, right?"
Fang Che said, "You've been the top dog on the continent for so many years. Even if we try our best to take advantage of you, how much can we really get from you? Isn't that true?"
Sikong Dou huffed, "It's not like I've been taken advantage of so much... I could have just asked you directly."
"If I asked you directly... wouldn't you refuse?"
Night Emperor huffed, "It's just a trivial possession. You don't even need it yourself, yet you cling to it like your life, keeping it for when you die and place it on your skull?"
Sikong Dou was furious, "Who said I wouldn't give it? Did you ask? Did you?"
He grabbed his younger brother's collar, his voice filled with anger, "Did you ever ask me? And you say I wouldn't give it?"
Night Emperor quickly signaled Fang Che.
The opportunity had arrived.
Fang Che had wanted to end this a long time ago, but Night Emperor kept pushing.
Fang Che understood that Night Emperor was also in a difficult situation... He had initiated the plan, but now it had become a twisted mess.
Feeling helpless, Fang Che stood up, having no choice but to put aside his dignity. With a chuckle, he said, "Big brother, since we've talked this far, I'll be thick-skinned and directly ask: give me some of your Crystal Milk."
Sikong Dou, still holding onto Night Emperor's collar, froze on the spot.
His eyes almost bulged out.
His face turned from blue to red.
Night Emperor, his collar still in Sikong Dou's grip, felt relieved inside, knowing that Fang Che's cooperation to this extent was extremely rare.
So, he spread his hands and said, "Look, he's directly asking you. Will you give it to him?"
Sikong Dou's forehead veins popped out, his face twisted, "You two heartless people! You're taking my life!"
Night Emperor said, "What's wrong, big brother? He's asking to your face. Do your words still count?"
Sikong Dou sighed, feeling hopeless, "You might as well send me back to the Underworld. I'd rather die than part with my wealth."
As soon as he said this, Night Emperor's face turned purple.
Before he could speak, Fang Che sighed and said, "If that's the case, then forget it."
After their plan was exposed, Fang Che also felt embarrassed; Sikong Dou's initial reaction was twisted.
This made Fang Che feel relieved.
But Night Emperor kept trying, and Fang Che was forced to play along, thick-skinned once again, directly asking for it. However, Sikong Dou still refused.
Fang Che didn't insist anymore.
Although it was Sikong Ye's idea, he was the one executing it. He felt awkward, especially with a hint of trying to repay a favor.
Fang Che felt extremely uncomfortable.
If he continued with this joke-like topic and kept pestering, Fang Che knew he could get it.
But Sikong Dou's reluctance made Fang Che feel uneasy even if he succeeded.
It would leave a grudge in Sikong Dou's heart.
Sikong Dou huffed.
"Who do you want to give it to?"
Sikong Dou asked, "If it's for your personal use, then it's fine."
This was a softer statement, obviously sensing the awkward atmosphere.
Fang Che calmly replied, "It's for a few children with average talent."
He smiled and stood up, "In that case, I'll take my leave."
The situation had suddenly become so awkward, Sikong Ye was at a loss, feeling extremely embarrassed, his own awkwardness almost overflowing.
Who would have thought that he and his big brother, both thousands of years old in the Wulin, would actually twist this matter to this extent?
It was too unexpected.
Sikong Ye stood up, "Little brother, wait a moment."
"No need to wait."
Fang Che smiled, "Big brother, don't blame the boss. Today's matter was my greed. Actually, if we talk about it, I can use the Peiyuan Dan and other methods to slightly make up for the children's average talent."
Sikong Ye saw Fang Che's embarrassment and couldn't help but stay silent, feeling ashamed, "We were indeed a bit too hasty. With the power of the Guardians, enhancing the talent of a few kids is not a difficult task."
He said, "I haven't had a big meal in a long time. I bought some today, and this morning, we'll have a feast."
He sighed softly, a bit weary, "Today, it's my fault."
