Wang Ye was speechless when he was inexplicably involved.

“What… What does this have to do with me?” He didn’t want to get involved.

This matter involved the Xinghai Demon Disaster back then. He was just an ordinary beastmaster, so how could he comment on it?

In terms of right and wrong, there was nothing to be said.

From a human’s point of view, Wang Ye stood on the broken blade’s side…

If he looked at it from a pet’s point of view though, there was nothing wrong with the demonized Xiao Tao’s doings. After all, an eye for an eye.

“What does it have to do with him?” The broken blade said coldly.

“Looks like you still don’t know anything. How pitiful,” The sword hilt continued to sneer, “To achieve his goal, this guy didn’t hesitate to kill his own kind. To take me away from the secret realm, I asked him to kill a few human investigators who were targeting me on the spot. He killed them immediately, without any hesitation. He’s the kind of person who will do anything to achieve his goal. Just with the way you judge characters, if I let you control me, the battle that happened back then at the divine pond will reappear one day.”

“…” Wang Ye.

The broken blade paused and turned to Wang Ye. It seemed to be a little shocked, probably not expecting Wang Ye to be such a person.

“Umm…” Wang Ye thought for a moment, “I didn’t want to say it at first, but since you wronged me, I can only explain myself. To be honest, those people at that time didn’t die.”

“Bullshit! I saw you kill those four people with my eyes.”

“Think about it carefully,” Wang Ye cleared his throat, “I just let my pet swallow them into its stomach, not eat them. At that time, I just wanted to trick you.”

The air suddenly froze.

“Do you think I will believe you if you use such words to quibble? Could it be that your pet has a world inside its body?” The sword hilt sneered.

“If you don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do,” Wang Ye shrugged, indicating that he didn’t care.

The white python was still sleeping and absorbing the energy. It would only wake up in a few years at the fastest. Naturally, he didn’t have the chance to show them what the heaven-devouring python was made of.

Seeing Wang Ye’s carefree and relaxed attitude, the sword hilt fell silent.

“Look!” The sword hilt pointed at Wang Ye, “This human is full of nonsense and lies. Moreover, he is extremely untrustworthy and even dares to lie to me. So this is the person you chose?”

“…” Wang Ye.

He took a deep breath.

The accusation almost knocked him out.

Good lord. If he did kill those four people, the sword hilt would say that he would do anything to achieve his goal, to the point that he would kill his kind.

Now that he was saying that he didn’t kill them, the sword hilt said that he didn’t keep his word and that he was full of nonsense.

So in conclusion, he was just a bad human, inside and out, right?

“I can’t be bothered about the business between you two,” Wang Ye said, “I don’t care who controls who. I’m just fulfilling my promise. Why would I lie to you? You and I are not on the same side either, so I don’t need to abide by some of my ideas for you. Also, this place is very dangerous.”

Wang Ye pointed to the surroundings, “Don’t be too fierce. If you attract other investigators, you will definitely be caught, and I would be implicated. I’ve already born a huge risk by bringing you out. My advice is that the two of you integrate into one as soon as possible. It’s impossible for me to bring you out again. Those investigators should be able to trace the clues to me soon. Moreover, your matter will be exposed sooner or later. So, you’d better make preparations as soon as possible.”

The broken blade was silent for a while.

However, the sword hilt simply laughed and said, “Do you hear him? What he means is that he wants to cut ties with you. He has already planned to abandon you. When your last remaining body is found, he should immediately abandon you. In any case, you have already handed over your Scalding Bright Flame. To him, you are no longer of any value.”

“…” Wang Ye.

“Xiao Jiu, use the Scalding Bright Flame,” he said.

Xiao Jiu had held itself back for a long time. Hearing its beastmaster’s order, its body immediately lit up with wisps of the Scalding Bright Flame.

In an instant, the sword hilt also flickered with a platinum-colored light flame. It was as if an illusory figure was being burned in the light flame, and it let out a sharp cry!

“Damn it! I’m going to kill you!” The sword hilt let out painful cries, “Damn human!”

“Don’t forget, you’re still under my control now,” Wang Ye reminded the sword hilt, “Do pay attention to your tone of voice.”

The angry cries of the sword hilt gradually stopped.

Seeing this, the broken blade was silent for a while before saying, “If that’s the case, why didn’t you say so earlier… I’m too lazy to argue with her.”

It seemed to be in an extremely depressed mood. After saying that, it landed on the desolate ground.

Wang Ye thought for a moment and said, “To be honest, there’s no need to be too concerned about what happened back then. Besides, some of your companions haven’t died yet.”

Buzz!!

Just as Wang Ye said this, the broken blade immediately flew up and let out a humming sound, “Why are you saying this?”

Its voice was trembling.

“The Dark Tree of Heaven? Do you still remember it?” Wang Ye briefly told Xiao Tao about what happened in the Infernal Relic.

He only took a short time. After hearing the story, the humming of the broken blade was like thunder, and its body flickered with a strange light.

“Idiot, you even dare to believe such nonsense?” The sword hilt hissed.

The broken blade did not speak.

“If you don’t believe me, you can feel me,” Wang Ye pointed at himself and cleared his throat, “If you can feel it, don’t I have the aura of the Dark Tree of Heaven on me?”

The broken blade immediately flew towards Wang Ye and got very close to him.

After a while, it lowered its excited voice as it said, “That’s right! It’s the tree’s aura! Natural Divine Power, it’s the tree’s Natural Divine Power! To think you have its characteristic! It seems that it has given its power to you. I didn’t expect that a human like you could withstand the power of a pet’s characteristic!”
