The key is that his trick worked.
Qin Shou and Wu Chi looked at each other, as if they had reached some kind of agreement. They nodded slightly, turned around and took a step forward at the same time, their target was Wutan.
Seeing the two people coming with a menacing look on their faces, Wutan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Originally, he planned to wait for the three men to be defeated and then reap the benefits, but he did not expect that Jian Huo would shift the target of attack to him with just a few words.
It seems that the minds of these peerless evildoers cannot be underestimated.
To be honest, Wutan really underestimated the three people this time.
You know, these three people, like him, received special care from the mysterious man.
Moreover, it was more difficult for the three of them to pass the test than it was for him.
Because he knew that the fire essence was fake, but Jian, Huo and the other two didn't know, which made the task much more difficult.
But all three of them still passed, which was enough to prove that their brains were no worse than his.
If that was the case, how could he be fooled before a life-and-death situation
So, this time Wutan underestimated the three people and had some unrealistic ideas.
“Swish!!”
Qin Shou and the other man stopped a hundred feet away and glanced at the two people and two beasts.
Jian Huo also followed, but kept a distance from the two of them, and became extremely alert in secret.
"Hey, there's something weird!"
Suddenly, a trace of suspicion appeared on Wu Chi's face, and his eyes swept back and forth between the little guy, the Insect King, and Xiao Wuhao with a strange light in them.
"eccentric?"
Qin Shou and Jian Huo couldn't help but look at him carefully after hearing this.
The focus suddenly fell on the two little guys and little Wuhao, and Wutan was ignored again.
After a moment, Wu Chi said in surprise: "He is actually an energy body, and he looks extremely powerful."
Qin Shou nodded, with a hint of disbelief on his face, and said, "And the black magic frog and beetle, they seem a little weird no matter how you look at them. They clearly feel different from ordinary magic frogs and beetles, but I can't tell how they are different."
Jian Huo also nodded in agreement.
Before, his attention had always been on the scarred man, and he had completely fooled the other man and two beasts. Later, when Qin Shou and Wu Chi appeared one after another, he completely forgot about the other man and two beasts.
However, now that he had a closer look, he realized that this one man and two beasts were very unusual.
As he was thinking, an idea came to him, and he sent a message to Wu Tian: "Sir, how about we cooperate?"
"cooperate?"
Hearing this, Wu Tian was very surprised, but he didn't look at him deliberately. He just glanced at him casually, then calmly looked at the little peacock who was crossing the tribulation, and replied: "Tell me, how do you want to cooperate?"
Jian Huo said: "Let's work together to get rid of these two people."
"As their names suggest, none of these three are good people."
Wu Tian muttered in his heart and transmitted his voice: "I have no grudges against them and don't want to cause trouble. Brother Bitch, you should find someone else!"
Being called a bitch again, Jian Huo felt murderous intent in his heart, but facing the two major threats of Qin Shou and Wu Chi, he could only swallow his anger. But he was muttering in his heart, if there were other people around now, would I cooperate with a loser like you
On the surface, there was nothing unusual. He transmitted his voice, "Your Excellency does not want to cause trouble, but that does not mean they will not cause trouble. To tell you the truth, they have already taken a fancy to you, the peacock. Based on my understanding of them, they will never give up until they succeed."
Wu Tian jokingly said: "Aren't you also drooling over the little peacock?"
Jian Huo thought to himself, "I admit that I really want to get the little peacock, but it's different now. These two are my mortal enemies. Compared to the little peacock, I want to get rid of them more urgently. As long as you and I kill them together, I will not only give up fighting for the little peacock, but also thank you with a generous gift."
"What kind of gift?"
Wutan asked secretly. Of course, he couldn't believe Jian Huo's lies. Once he really got rid of the two people, he would probably attack him first.
But he was not afraid at all. What he had to do now was to delay time. After the Bird Saint, the Source of All Evil, and the wild beasts such as the Fire Kirin arrived, he would trap the three of them in one fell swoop.
All three of them are peerless monsters, and they must have some secret cards. Once they take action, they must be killed with great force. If they are allowed to escape, there will undoubtedly be endless troubles.
And when Jian Huo's evil was moving eastward, he had already used the Earth Symbol Order to secretly send a message to the Bird Saint, the Source of All Evil, and several wild beasts.
"Ten thousand spiritual essences, plus a six-tribulation imperial weapon."
Jian Huo responded and expressed his gratitude.
"Send away beggars?"
Wu Tian sneered in his heart, but did not say it out loud. He responded, "Let me think about it."
Then he pretended to be lost in thought.
After about three breaths, Wu Chi, who had been looking at Xiao Wuhao, the Insect King, and the little fellow, finally turned his gaze to Wu Tian, showing a friendly smile and asked, "Are you a native of this place?"
Wu Tian did not answer, but there was a hint of teasing in the depths of his eyes.
Seeing this, Wu Chi was not angry at all. Instead, his smile became even brighter. He said, "In fact, you don't need to answer me. I know you are a native here because I have never seen you among the people who came here this time. Now you just need to answer me a question, yes or no, and I will let you go."
"It seems like I was completely ignored."
Wu Tian couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Looking back, it’s actually not the fault of Jian, Huo and the other two.
He was the last one to enter the heavenly realm.
He was also the last one to enter the void where the bloody altar was located.
Entering the cave, he was still at the back.
He was not the last one to enter the Road of Life and Death, but there was no difference between him and the last one, because only Huangfu Mingzhu and a few others were left outside at that time.
He is always the last one, and the three peerless monsters have their eyes high up, always looking at the front, so it is normal that they don’t notice him.
After collecting his thoughts, Wu Tian looked at Wu Chi and the other man and said, "Tell me, what's the problem?"
Wu Chi asked: "Is the little peacock your pet?"
Wu Tian shook his head and said, "If I say yes, you will definitely attack me immediately. If I say no, you will not believe a stranger. Excuse me, is it still useful for me to say it?"
Wu Chi's smile grew brighter and brighter, and he said with a smile: "You are quite smart. Well, I will not waste my words with you. You commit suicide on the spot. I promise to spare the two little beasts beside you and the energy body, and leave you with an intact body."
His tone was calm, his smile was friendly, and one couldn't even sense any malice in him. However, such a person was more terrifying than those sinister and cunning villains.
"Why haven't you come yet?"
Wutan muttered to himself. Dozens of breaths had passed since he had sent a message to Bird Saint and the others, but why was there still no sign of him
"It seems that Your Excellency insists that Wumou take action."
Wu Chi took a step towards Wutan, still smiling, with no murderous intent in his eyes.
However, when Wutan saw this person walking towards him, he felt a chill down his spine, and a strong sense of crisis swept through his heart!
He didn't dare to be careless at all. He concentrated his mental power and locked onto Wu Chi.
Just when Wu Chi appeared in front of him, Wutan was even ready to fight back, but suddenly, Wu Chi disappeared mysteriously!
The next moment, Wutan felt a sharp blade stabbing his back!
With a chill in his heart, he took a step forward without hesitation!
However, he was horrified to find that he could not move.
That’s right!
I just can't move!
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move at all, as if he was frozen!
“So you are also in the Consummation Period.”
Immediately afterwards, Wu Chi's voice sounded behind him, and he could even feel the hot breath exhaled by Wu Chi when he spoke.
All the hairs on Wu Tian's body exploded instantly.
He was also very puzzled as to how this person could see through his cultivation
Wu Chi smiled and said, "Are you curious about why I know your cultivation level?"
Wu Tian nodded.
"Haha, I'll let you die knowingly."
Wu Chi explained: "This is my imprisonment field. Any creature whose cultivation level is lower than mine, or who is at the same level as me, will be unable to move at all once it is covered by the imprisonment field. However, if it is a creature whose cultivation level is higher than mine, it can only slow down its movements, but cannot completely imprison it."
"I guess you don't understand, so I'll just briefly summarize it."
Wu Chi added: "My own cultivation is at the Perfection Stage. The Confinement Field can completely confine beings at or below the Perfection Stage, so I conclude that your cultivation is also at the Perfection Stage. Because if you were a Great Emperor at the Great Perfection Stage, you wouldn't be standing still like this."
That self-righteous attitude made Wutan want to kick him.
Jian Huo's pupils shrank slightly. It turned out that he was only at the Perfection stage of cultivation, but his combat power was actually comparable to his own. It seemed that this person was definitely not as simple as he had appeared before.
After taking a glance at Qin Shou, who was standing motionless with his arms folded across his chest, Jian Huo said in a voice transmission: "Sir, make a decision quickly. If you agree to cooperate with Jian, I will lend a helping hand immediately."
Seeing that Niao Sheng and others had not returned yet, Wu Tian weighed the pros and cons in his mind and secretly responded: "Okay, we will cooperate, but you only need to deal with Qin Shou, and I will take care of Wu Chi."
Jian Huo asked in surprise: "Are you sure you can do it?"
Wu Tian sneered: "Don't worry, I will take good care of this self-righteous guy, and I also have a plan to quickly eliminate the two of them..."
Jian Huo's heart was filled with anxiety, and he asked hurriedly, "What plan?"
"The plan is..."
Wutan said a few words to Jian Huo secretly, with a cold light flashing in the depths of his eyes.
"good."
Jian Huo glanced at Wu Tian meaningfully, then walked to Qin Shou's side and said to himself, "Qin Shou, how about we cooperate?"
Qin Shou responded calmly: "Why should I cooperate with you?"
Jian Huo said: "You can see that Wu Chi is very strong, and with the confinement field, although you and I are not bad, it may be difficult to defeat him. As long as you and I join forces to get rid of him, it will be of great benefit to both you and me."
Qin Shou's eyes flickered, and he asked, "Who will the peacock belong to?"
Jian Huo said without hesitation: "It's yours."
"To me?"
Hearing this, Qin Shou was a little stunned. He had thought of all kinds of possibilities, but he never expected that Jian Huo would answer like this, and so straightforwardly.
However, while he was stunned, Jian Huo slapped Qin Shou on the lower back, and the Sword Emperor's sword energy, which had been accumulated for a long time, turned into golden sharp blades, breaking through Qin Shou's skin like a hot knife through butter and going straight to the sea of qi!
