Er Zhong simply thought that in this room, only Liu Zixuan dared to make a move against him!

It's not that he thought Qin Si wouldn't dare, but there were too many things entangled here.

The rules of Celestial Capital are that besides outsider family forces not being able to disrupt the balance, the top ten influential figures cannot engage in a showdown either, because that would be digging their own grave, giving others an opportunity to take advantage.

Therefore, the nine big figures, along with that always absent tenth person, have an unspoken rule that they cannot fight each other!

Er Zhong thought that even if Qin Si wanted to tear off his face, he wouldn't dare to kill him. But now Qin Si's attitude shocked him!

Qin Si said, "As things have come to this point, what wouldn't I dare to do? I've already recorded our conversation just now. If I kill you, and those few big shots ask what happened, I can simply tell them that Er Zhong wanted to dominate, so to be safe, I killed him."

With that, Qin Si displayed a wicked smile, "This way, I not only have a legitimate reason to kill you but also can easily swallow your assets!"

"You... are so ruthless!"

Er Zhong practically ground these three words out through his teeth, his face flushed with extreme anger!

"In these times, can you achieve anything without being ruthless?" Liu Zixuan picked up the conversation, patting Er Zhong on the shoulder, "Sir Zhong, don't worry. I'll make sure your treasures are used to their fullest potential."

That rascal Zhou Lunatic is an antique expert, and also a member of Six Gates. If those treasures are given to Zhou Lunatic, they are sure to fetch a high price.

Although Zhou Lunatic is quite miserly, Liu Zixuan thinks he can still make a huge profit!

Er Zhong shook off Liu Zixuan's arm, snorted coldly, "So what if you two kill me today! Don't forget, besides being one of the top ten people, I am also among the top three in Six Gates."

"Just based on these two identities, the two of you will die without a burial place!"

"Hahaha!" Liu Zixuan laughed boldly, grabbing Er Zhong by the collar, "Dare to hit you, and still fear your revenge? I'm not unfamiliar with dealing with people from Six Gates!"

"You?" Er Zhong pondered for a moment, suddenly his eyes lit up, "Are you Liu Zixuan, who got the Nameless Sword in Ghost Wood City and injured Yingying?"

"I am Liu Zixuan, that's true, and it's true that I got the Nameless Sword, but I didn't injure the beauty named Ying Jie. She's so pretty, I wouldn't want to harm her; I'd rather sleep with her!"

Liu Zixuan sneered, "Why? Who is that beauty to you?"

"Humph! Do you know she's the daughter of Sixth Master!"

Er Zhong suddenly smirked mockingly, "Liu Zixuan, even if I die today, I have no regrets, because I've already predicted your fate!"

"Oh? Let me hear it." Liu Zixuan thought it amusing. It was the first time someone could predict his future!

Er Zhong snorted coldly, "Master Jin was pushed out by us nine as a shield but you killed him, which has already enraged many people. Secondly, in Ghost Wood City, stealing the Nameless Sword from my top three, this matter is deeply remembered by all!"

"If it weren't for something delaying us, we would have already sought you out. But now it's fine, you've come to Celestial Capital yourself and provoked us. So, just wait for the top three to hunt you down relentlessly!"

"As for the last bit, killing me today will directly anger all the big shots except Qin Si. There aren't many big families in Celestial Capital, barely over a dozen if counted, but now you've offended more than half! What do you think your fate will be?"

"So what you're saying is, I have to die!" Liu Zixuan shrugged with a smile.

"Do you think there's another way besides a dead end?"

"Of course there is!" Liu Zixuan suddenly changed his tone, "And that's to step all those big shots you mentioned under my feet!"

"Wishful thinking!" Er Zhong sneered, "Today, you just caught me in your trap, otherwise what could you possibly have done to kill me?"

"Stop!"

Liu Zixuan suddenly interrupted Er Zhong, ignoring his disdain, and turned to say, "Qin Si, I've suddenly changed my mind!"

"Changed what mind?" Qin Si asked.

"I think Zhong Er is a smart man, he has a good understanding of the big picture. Why don't we spare his life?" Liu Zixuan smiled meaningfully.

Qin Si was momentarily stunned, "Spare his life?"

"Of course!"

Liu Zixuan looked at Er Zhong with a playful expression, word by word, "Since Zhong Er has begun to predict my future, I must let him see the end to the end! To see whether in the end it's the top three or other big shots that kill me, or if I stand on top of them!"

Er Zhong snorted coldly, "Then you might regret it. If you don't kill me now, you might not have the opportunity in the future!"

"Besides showing you these people's final fates, there's another reason!"

Liu Zixuan blew a puff of smoke on Er Zhong's face, smirking, "At the critical moment, I can use you as the scapegoat!"

"Currently, Qin Si and I are weak, if we directly tear faces with those big shots, it will surely be very passive. But if we keep you around, occasionally push you out, and blame some things on you, it should relieve quite a bit of pressure on us!"

Upon hearing this, Er Zhong's face changed instantly.

He glared angrily at Liu Zixuan, "You are so despicable!"

"No, no, no, my little despicability is far from yours compared to you big shots!" Liu Zixuan laughed.

At this moment, if Er Zhong died, everything would be over, and it could definitely stir up a storm and provoke other big shots and the top three to suppress Liu Zixuan and Qin Si together!

Therefore, his death now holds value.

But if he doesn't die, as Liu Zixuan said, letting him take the blame, Er Zhong will immediately become the eternal sinner of this place!

Liu Zixuan looked at Er Zhong, who was angry but didn't know how to refute, and snickered, "Alright, it's settled then. Qin Si, find a nice place to properly settle Zhong Er. Feed him well and let him keep his eyes wide open to see who's name adorns Celestial Capital in the end!"

"You will definitely regret doing this!" Er Zhong grunted.

"Before we regret, you will regret first!" Qin Si spoke, shouting outside, and two brawny men walked in, taking Er Zhong towards the basement.

The room emptied, and Qin Si laughed heartily, "Such satisfaction! I never thought it would be so easy to deal with Er Zhong!"

"No, this is just the first step. Now we have only gotten Er Zhong himself, not swallowed his power, so there are still many things to do next!" Liu Zixuan threw cold water on Qin Si directly...
