In Executive Tian's eyes, Sikong Jing's composure just now must have come from believing Hua Lidian still held evidence. Next, Sikong Jing would surely turn pale and fly into a helpless rage...
But Sikong Jing suddenly laughed as well, showing none of the fury Executive Tian had expected.
Executive Tian frowned and barked coldly, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing because another executive of the Tyrant Heaven Chamber of Commerce is about to be schemed to death by Executive Hua and me," Sikong Jing replied blandly.
As soon as he spoke, a tiny flying griffin landed atop the railing of the Divine Void Ship.
"Hm?" Executive Tian froze at the words and instinctively looked toward the little flying griffin, yet found nothing unusual.
Thud...
At that moment, Sikong Jing took a heavy step forward.
Executive Tian's brow furrowed again, an utterly strange feeling rising within him...
By all reason, given Sikong Jing's condition, he should not have been able to threaten him. Yet why did a sense of danger suddenly emerge? Then Executive Tian thought of something and shouted coldly, "No, you want to escape?"
"Everyone, heed my order! Surround Sikong Jing at once!"
In an instant, the twenty-odd Dao Inquiry Realm experts he had brought encircled Sikong Jing tightly.
Sikong Jing stopped walking, while Executive Tian began to sneer repeatedly.
"Sikong Jing, I heard you're very good at putting on an act."
"You're even the Invincible Divine General of the battlefield. It's truly laughable how you put on such a powerful air."
"You said you wanted to scheme me, an executive, to death, and acted as though you were going to fight me to the death—all because you want to run away, isn't that right?"
Sikong Jing paused slightly at that, thinking that this fellow was quite good
