Chapter 2998
“What?! You‘re Rin?”
Julian froze. A wretched look appeared on his face.
“You‘re the sovereign of the Shindan Way and one of the Island Nations‘ greatest Sword Saints!”
“How are you the leader of Misfortune?!”
Akio chuckled bitterly.
“If I wasn‘t Rin, why would I even know why you‘re here?”
Harvey frowned. He had predicted it somewhat, but he still found it a little unbelievable even after Akio revealed his identity.
“Fine. If you‘re really Rin, I‘ll have you answer a few of my questions.”
With a cold expression, Julian then asked, “Were you the one who killed Lord York‘s son?”
Akio‘s eyes twitched frantically.
“Julian York, correct?” “What would you like to hear? Yes or no?” Bang!
Julian pulled the trigger on Akio‘s hand without any hesitation.
Blood splattered all over the ground. Akio only grunted, but not a scream could be heard from him.
He could naturally dodge the bullet, but there would be no point.
Harvey didn‘t take action, but he had his eyes locked on Akio.
If Akio moved a single inch, he would‘ve died a horrible death.
From the moment Akio revealed his identity, Harvey knew that the former didn‘t want to die that easily.
Since there was a sliver of hope left, he would surely put all his might to fight for it.
That was why he didn‘t resist.
Harvey didn‘t try to stop Julian. He wanted to see what the Sword Saint would say to save his own skin at this very moment.
Julian raised his firearm, furious, and then took a few steps forward.
“Why are you still playing around at this point?! You f*cker!” he exclaimed, putting his firearm on Akio‘s forehead.
“Answer me!”
Akio smiled faintly and moved his injured hand.
“To be honest with you, my answer doesn‘t matter at all.”
“The important thing is how you want me to answer it.”
“If you think I should be the one taking the blame, I‘d have to take it even if I said I wasn‘t the murderer.”
“But if you think otherwise, then you‘d think that I‘m lying even when I‘m not...”
“That‘s why...”
Bang!
Julian pulled the trigger on Akio‘s other hand.
“Stop f*cking around!”
“Answer the question!”
“If not, I‘ll pop your head next!”
“We don‘t have time to play games with you!”
Akio shrugged. Even in such a desperate situation, he was still trying to prove his worth.
“Julian. You only showed up here because you‘re trying to prove your house‘s innocence.”
“You want Lord York to know that your house had nothing to do with what happened ten years ago!”
“Your house wasn‘t involved.”
“That‘s why you desperately want my confession.”
“I can tell you one thing: I was asked to stage an accident ten years ago to kill Lord York‘s son.”
“But what if I told you that I don‘t know who hired me in the first place? Would you believe me?”
