Chapter 243: Li Shi Father Great Insight and Hidden Fear.
Despite the sudden heavy atmosphere around the place, Shao Cheng has shot a look toward Pengfei to start his performance while at the same time, he quietly takes note of the young man's insincere grin and calms empty eyes despite watching the three men showing their own helplessness.
well, he has always known that there is also something wrong with Pengfei, and if it weren't for the Chang Spirit using its skill to bind a master and servant connection between them, he would never easily use this person who has a deep connection to the Lau Empire.
"Hey guys, we have to quickly start, or else we will become more troublesome and difficult."
After making a clapping noise, Pengfei has opened one of the small scrolls before pointing at it with a solemn expression, although his voice has remained light and merrily.
"Here, sign the scroll with a drop of your blood, and we won't be able to betray each other and causing great harm in a life-threatening situation. Of course, you can also read what's written on it. I'm sure you the two of you have also heard of the mysterious people with a special skill right?"
Without hesitation, Pengfei has used his own mysterious skill in order to let them show that he was the real deal while also letting them misunderstand that he was the one who made the mysterious scroll rather than letting them figure out that his Icy friend being the main creator while having the same mysterious ability.
A person has to hide some of their abilities, and shouldn't let even the supposed allies know all about it.
"Hehe, aside from Li Shi, it seemed you two really know it just from the look on your faces. Great, there is no need to waste time explaining it. Come on and start signing it, or else, I'll be forced to use another mean which you guys shouldn't know~"
While Pengfei is acting up as a fabulous villain and using his mysterious skill to threaten the stubborn two men who have a different idea in mind, Shao Cheng has just remained silent in the sideline while standing next to a curious Ren Yuan whose blood was added in the ink used to write in the scroll.
Base on the scrolls Shao Cheng learned from Pengfei when acquiring one of the many skills some of the mysterious people use, the main master with greater authority in the mysterious scroll needed to add their blood to the ink used to create it.
And the main reason why Shao Cheng has added Ren Yuan blood was so that even if something were to happen to him in the future, these two men would not be able to turn their back against Ren Yuan and causing danger to his life.
It simply for safety reasons, especially when Ren Yuan and Li Shi appeared to have a deep grievance with each other in the previous life.
Such a connection no matter how small it was, or simply something Shao Cheng has just assumed but there is no way that he would leave it all alone, especially when it comes to Ren Yuan's well-being.
Honestly, Shao Cheng is just being prepared, besides, he can't easily trust other people's words alone even if somehow he already considered that they can be trusted.
Fortunately, the special ability he receives was able to help him out regarding that certain problem he has, and since he couldn't easily use the vow and pledge that he got, since it wouldn't work if a person is being forced or when they don't feel genuine about it, then he can only use other means.
Although what Shao Cheng created appeared to be different and far useful from what he has learned, after all, he was using the purple energy that has a strong connection to the Chang Empire along with the genuine Emperor aura from the Heaven will, especially with great heavy merit from the previous Ren Yuan life as an enlighten Emperor.
"... you are going to keep my daughter safe?"
Suddenly, the older man's silent inquiry reaches Shao Cheng's ears, which he easily answered back while noticing the way the older man has been tightly gripping the scrolls in his hands.
"I wouldn't give you an absolute promise since an accident can always happen. But I will promise with the best of my ability to protect your daughter while staying in my side."
"How about my son?"
"A weeks ago, he already made a promise and vow to serve me. As my own people, of course, I have the responsibility to take care of him."
Shao Cheng sapphire eyes calmly and coldly gaze upon the sharp gazes of the older man before continuing on, although was also trying hard to ignore the slight pain on his back, since for some reason Ren Yuan has decided to twist the skin on his waist, fortunately, the man knew to hide it from other people eyes.
Damn what is wrong with him now?
"... you sure have already decided and considered the way my children will live their life base on what written in the scrolls aren't you being a bit conceited?"
"I simply judged and measured the entire situation before choosing better circumstances for the two of them. You can simply refuse it and tell me what you want for them."
Li Mingzhu has been declared dead and been stamped by the officials after Ren Yuan use a fake dead body for her, which is simply developing in the way he wanted to happen in mind.
"Mr. Li, your daughter can't live as Li Mingzhu anymore. She will have to use a new identity if you want her to have a semi-normal life."
It's far better if he was the one who created her new identity rather than them since he knew for a fact that they definitely prefer the young woman to stay away from the river lake, which is also violent and ruthless beyond imagination.
"Besides, you can no longer deny that after what happened, your son will have to live the kind of life you have once left behind. After all, there should also be a reason why you have completely cut off any connection in the river and lakes, and now there will be great consequences after meeting your nephew right?"
Li Shi will grow the same powerful person in the previous life, the only difference will be is the young man working under him while having a sane mind, so there is no way that Shao Cheng would let the person escape to live a normal life.
Shao Cheng doesn't mind being cruel and ruthless about such a heinous decision because he has already known a long time ago what he wanted and has been quite clear what his goal is.
"... young man, I'll be honest, you are absolutely terrible and terrifying I don't really want my children to have even a tiny connection with you."
"F-Father?"
The older man gazes upon the young man with a silver mask on, which is just calmly standing there with a cold and indifferent atmosphere around him, and simply having complete total control of everything.
They have already been unable to run away, unable to deny, and unable to choose another path to take aside from what the young man has wanted.
Such a dangerous and terrifying individual the kind of person that is ruthless deep into their bone, and the most terrible thing about the entire situation was the fact his son appeared to have some interest in him.
He can already easily predict the ending his son will face if such emotion becomes deeper
"... add that my children will have nothing to do with you besides being subordinates while letting them chose a life they wanted when they decided to build their own family in the future."
Sorry son. I have to cut any deep feeling you have from being born before it far too late I can't allow you to become miserable especially when it is already a hopeless situation...
Shao Cheng's gaze couldn't help but flickered at the flustered Li Shi causing a certain thought to flash on his mind before giving a deep look toward the older man and easily accepting the sudden request.
"Alright."
