Chapter 1497: Chapter 1497: Even Sui Baiyin is the same!

Sui Zimo was poisoned, for he required better control over Sui Zimo, and had already been given a "leading" poison. Now, every time Sui Zimo was poisoned, there was a chance that the "leading" poison would be triggered.

Such an onset of poison was not something one could simply endure!

"I want Sui Zimo alive, do you, this fool, not understand?"

Grinding his teeth, he questioned the man in black.

If Sui Zimo could die just by saying so, he would not care at all, so why would he go through so much trouble to administer the "leading" poison to Sui Zimo?

Was it not just to have Sui Zimo better controlled in his hands?

"Master, your servant does not understand, Sui Zimo is now beyond control, why... why doesn’t the master simply kill him and be done with it?" The man in black could not hold back any longer and voiced his doubts.

Sui Zimo, as seen from these past encounters, had already far exceeded the range his master could control.

He did not understand why his master still kept such a person around.

Could it be that the master was keeping him around for the day when Sui Zimo would turn against his master?

"Since when is it your place to question my affairs?" The man looked at him displeased, questioning with a cold voice.

"If I command Sui Zimo to live, he must survive. If he suffers the slightest harm, do not bother returning, just stay there to accompany Sui Zimo in death! Do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, the man in black clenched his teeth and responded.

"Your servant understands, there will not be a next time."

"That’s good to understand."

The man then nodded in satisfaction.

"The antidote for Sui Zimo is all with the Emperor of Wei, tell that old thing to deliver it to Prince Mo’s Mansion without fail. Should there be a single lapse, I will take one of his fingers as payment!"

"Yes, master." The man in black responded.

He now began to suspect that Sui Zimo had some unspeakable relationship with his master.

Otherwise, why would his master be so partial to someone who was nearly uncontrollable?

Does it mean that as long as Sui Zimo is fine, it doesn’t matter whether other people live or die? Did his master not care at all?

Even Sui Baiyin was the same!

"Master, your servant has also learned something else," he said to the man.

"What is it?"

"More than a decade ago, wasn’t there someone who escaped back from the Illusion Continent? I found out that she is the Elder Princess of Liang Kingdom, and... she now has a pair of children who are about to come of age."

"Oh?"

The man’s voice rose with rare interest.

He was aware of the woman who had made an escape from the Illusion Continent into the heavens, just not exactly which one she was.

Yet he had not expected her to be the Elder Princess of Liang Kingdom.

When he had first disposed of Sui Zimo to the wastelands, he had also considered sending him to Liang Kingdom.

Unfortunately, the Emperor of Liang was a tough nut to crack, and the Liang royal family was upright and honorable, thwarting his plans at every turn.

With no other choice, he had to settle for the greedy Emperor of Wei.

"For someone who escaped from the Illusion Continent to actually have children, this is indeed... hehe." He laughed lightly twice, finding it unbelievable.

"If that’s the case, then have the Emperor of Wei demand the daughter of the Elder Princess and send her to Sui Zimo," he ordered.

"What?!"

The man in black gaped as if he had just heard a ludicrous tale, staring wide-eyed at his master.
