Pretending To Be A Boss

And the existence that must be from the order forces is you. Li Wanye controls the Judgement Knights, his value is greatest to you, so the most likely person to seek out Li Wanye would be you.

But the real question is, why did you go to find Li Wanye at such a coincidental time."

Tang Xian paused, his gaze sharp:

"Just by chance, I had just reached an understanding with Li Wanye and then you showed up. It's almost as if I was under surveillance.

And the only one capable of doing that is Constantine. He knows everything I do inside the Pyramid, including the arrangements with my friends.

Only he could have warned you that I would plan something with Li Wanye.

Although I can't be one hundred percent sure, it at least gave me enlightenment, after all, he has always viewed me as a psychological shadow since we were young, he hates me, and I, too, have never truly trusted him."

A tinge of helplessness appeared on Tang Xian's face, a helplessness that wasn't deliberately contrived, but seemed completely earnest:

"But I was willing to make peace with him, to change our views of each other, it's just a pity, he didn't seize such an opportunity and made the wrong choice."

Siren shook her head, asking somewhat frantically:

"If you already noticed this, why did you still listen to his words and come to such a dangerous place?"

"Because I came to kill you. Correction, it's not me who's stepping into danger, but you."

Tang Xian said this as if it were the most natural thing in the world, his attitude sincere.

Siren scoffed, "You're bluffing."

"I actually thought, maybe Constantine didn't betray me, and if I brought him here today, he would be my comrade-in-arms. In that case, he could use his metal controlling abilities against the Judgement Knights, and I could deal with you. After all, I am the human nemesis."

Tang Xian shook his head and continued:

"But he disappointed me, his defection, that also forced me to use my trump card."

"Trump card? What trump card could you possibly have left?"

"Think about it, why haven't the Judgement Knights launched an attack yet? Your order has already been given; what's stopping them?" Tang Xian looked at Siren, a mysterious smile playing on his lips.

Siren's heart skipped a beat.

"Think about it, is Ganesa really that naive, believing whatever Constantine says?

Ju Mang has been cautious all her life, did she really just die that easily?"

These mocking words, like a stiletto, created fissures in Siren's state of mind.

"Ju Mang is a very good liar, on par with Constantine, perhaps that's the reason for the wariness between them?"

Slowly approaching Siren, Tang Xian acted as if he couldn't see the four calamity-class boss creatures at all.

His gaze was filled with amusement:

"In fact, over these years, I think you've also wondered, why haven't you seen children as outstanding as we were in the 'reserve' of the Order's children?

Are we too exceptional, or is Ju Mang, who's in charge, too strict? But these things you thought unimportant, who wants to see their own replacement too soon, right? But you really should think about this issue."

Tang Xian was like a magician revealing the key to the trick at the last moment, he made a gesture of whispering in the ear:

"Actually, when I told Li Wanye that Ju Mang was the traitor among you, I was serious."

In that instant, Siren's pupils contracted.

Of course, he hadn't forgotten the intelligence he obtained while probing Li Wanye's memories.

But he merely scoffed at the revelation: so, that woman really was the traitor among us.

Yet, despite the sentiment, he disdainfully dismissed the idea. He certainly had reason to believe that all of this was just a smokescreen by Seven.

Because Seven's trump card should have been Constantine, and the statement 'Ju Mang is a traitor' was just a bait Tang Xian left in Li Wanye's memory, attempting to sow division within their group.

Bloodshot eyes filled Siren's vision, that feeling of mockery made him feel insulted.

He thought he had seen through Seven's charade, but how could he have imagined that Seven had told the truth to the enemy? Himself and Constantine, because of that one truth, had not harbored any suspicion of Ju Mang!

Tang Xian seemed to see through what Siren was thinking, he shrugged and said:

"It's quite frustrating for me, to be honest, I've always been an honest person, yet often when I tell the truth, no one believes me."
