1274 Where Is the Black Emperor? What’s the Point of Keeping You Alive? (2)
Zhou Shu said indifferently. “This Heavenly Nine Spirits isn’t bad. I’ll borrow it first. I’ll borrow your identity too.”
Before he finished speaking, the compass suddenly shone brightly. Xu Tongda felt as if his entire body was imprisoned.
He unleashed his spiritual essence, but his movements seemed to have been slowed down countless times. He could only watch as the circular saber slashed down.
Boom!
Under the gaze of the seven experts, Xu Tongda’s body was cut into two pieces.
Xu Tongda, who had just wanted to kill them all, was cut in half so easily?
Everyone found it unbelievable.
After all, Xu Tongda was a famous expert. Who would have thought that he would die here so easily?
Everyone had mixed feelings.
Logically speaking, since Xu Tongda had schemed against them, they should have wanted Xu Tongda dead.
But now that Xu Tongda was really dead, they felt a little uneasy.
They had heard Xu Tongda’s words clearly.
The person in front of them was a remnant of the Heavenly Court!
Would this remnant of the Heavenly Court let them go after killing Xu Tongda?
The most terrifying thing was that Xu Tongda’s secret treasure had fallen into his hands, and this secret treasure now controlled them.
If he really wanted to kill them, they would be completely powerless to fight back.
“Brother Sun…” a Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom expert said.
Zhou Shu turned around with a faint smile.
Amid the flickering light, everyone was horrified to see that Zhou Shu had become Xu Tongda.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have seen any flaws at all.
It was Xu Tongda!
Everyone’s hearts sank.
This remnant of the Heavenly Court changed his appearance in front of them, not afraid that they would leak the secret. Everyone knew what this meant.
In his shoes, they wouldn’t let outsiders know such a secret.
At the same time, they were extremely shocked. This was the first time they had seen a divine ability that could completely transform someone into another person.
The Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom expert braced himself and said, “Brother Sun, we had no grudges in the past. If you have anything to say, we can sit down and talk.”
He had to speak. If he didn’t, he would really die.
If one could live, who would be willing to die?
“Is that so? Why did I hear that you gathered together to deal with me, a remnant of the Heavenly Court?” Zhou Shu said with a faint smile.
“It’s a misunderstanding. We were bewitched,” the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom expert said. “Brother Sun, we didn’t cause you any harm—”
“It’s not impossible for you to live,” Zhou Shu interrupted indifferently. “Let me ask you a few questions. If your answers satisfy me, I can consider sparing your lives.”
“Ask away!” the people of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom said in unison. Although they knew hope was slim, they still had to fight for it.
At the very least, they had to stall for time. What if he decided to spare them?
Zhou Shu asked, “You keep calling me a remnant of the Heavenly Court, but I want to ask you, what do you call me a remnant of the Heavenly Court? Is the word ‘Heavenly Court’ written on my head?”
Previously, in order to hide his identity, he didn’t ask directly.
But now, Xu Tongda had found a secret place, and Zhou Shu had already turned the tables around. He could ask directly.
“Uhh…” Everyone was a little embarrassed.
“That’s what the wanted notice of the Golden Dragon Guards said…” a Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom expert said.
Zhou Shu snorted coldly. “You believe what the Golden Dragon Guards say? Don’t you have any judgment of your own?”
Seeing everyone’s expressions, he understood.
To everyone, it didn’t matter if Zhou Shu was a remnant of the Heavenly Court.
In any case, the Golden Dragon Guards had placed a bounty on him. As long as anyone killed him, they could just collect the reward. Did it matter if he was a remnant of the Heavenly Court or not?
Zhou Shu continued to ask coldly, “Let me ask you more. What is the relationship between the Heavenly Court and the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom? Why is everyone so excited when it comes to the remnants of the Heavenly Court?”
The experts of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom looked at each other. Which eye of yours saw that we were excited?
Even if we’re excited, it has nothing to do with the remnants of the Heavenly Court.
We’re excited about the reward from the Golden Dragon Guards.
A Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom expert coughed. “I know a little about the remnants of the Heavenly Court. The Heavenly Court is the mortal enemy of our Xuan Ming Heaven. Back then, the Black Emperor almost died in the hands of the Heavenly Court, so…”
What he said was only a rumor. As for whether it was true or not, he couldn’t guarantee it, and Zhou Shu wouldn’t believe it either.
But it was basically certain that the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom’s Black Emperor had a grudge against the Heavenly Court.
But the experts of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom couldn’t tell what the relationship between the Heavenly Court, the ancestral land, and the human race was.
“By the way, I heard a legend,” a Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom expert suddenly said. “Legend has it that the Black Emperor came from the Heavenly Court himself. Later, because of different goals, he parted ways with the Heavenly Court. In the end, the Heavenly Court hunted the Black Emperor down. The Black Emperor was naturally unconvinced and turned against them.”
Everyone spoke one after another, afraid that they would say less than others.
But everything they said was a mess. They were basically rumors without evidence.
“Can any of you tell me how to meet the Black Emperor?” Zhou Shu asked.
“Meet the Black Emperor?” The experts of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom looked at each other and shook their heads.
“We don’t have the right to come into contact with the Black Emperor. We don’t know how to meet him.”
“Under normal circumstances, if there’s really something important, you can go to the Golden Dragon Guards to seek an audience. The Golden Dragon Guards will inform the Black Emperor. It’s hard to say if the Black Emperor will see you.”
“By the way, Grandmaster Wu Suchen is a good friend of the Black Emperor. If you meet him, you might be able to meet the Black Emperor!”
“Wu Suchen?” Zhou Shu raised his eyebrows.
Xu Tongda had mentioned this name several times. This person was said to be the number one refiner in the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom.
The compass dharma treasure Zhou Shu had snatched from Xu Tongda had been personally forged by Wu Suchen.
Before Xu Tongda died, he had even threatened Zhou Shu that if he snatched his dharma treasure, Wu Suchen wouldn’t let him off.
“Where can I find Wu Suchen?” Zhou Shu asked.
Everyone shook their heads. They were not qualified to come into contact with an existence like Wu Suchen.
“Well, Xu Tongda might know Grandmaster Wu, but we…” a Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom expert said weakly.
Among everyone present, only Xu Tongda might know Wu Suchen, but Xu Tongda had already been killed by Zhou Shu, so…
“If there’s nothing you know, what’s the point of keeping you?” Zhou Shu snorted and reached out to grab the net. The net of light quickly began to close.
The seven experts let out loud screams.
Swish swish!
The power of the compass secret treasure erupted, and the spiritual essence in the bodies of the seven Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom experts flowed out. They were completely powerless to resist the cutting of the light net.
A moment later, the seven experts disintegrated into countless small pieces of flesh.
Even in death, they didn’t expect Zhou Shu to kill them so bluntly.
The seven of them died with grievances.
After Zhou Shu killed the experts, his mood didn’t fluctuate at all.
Since these people wanted to kill him, why would he let them live?
As soon as these experts died, Zhou Shu felt waves of power surge into the compass secret treasure in his hand.
The power even wanted to surge into his body.
This secret treasure devours the power of others for the user’s own use. Wu Suchen isn’t a good person either. He actually forged such a thing. I wonder how many people Xu Tongda has harmed with it.
Suddenly, Zhou Shu looked up in a direction.
In this direction, waves were rolling, and an extremely powerful aura was rapidly approaching.
Zhou Shu’s heart stirred as he said a name. “Wu Suchen!”
