"Um?"
When Yang Qi rushed to Emperor Haoyue's cave, he saw Emperor Haoyue sitting in front of a stone table with two figures. One of the figures was the familiar Emperor Xuanyang, but Yang Qi had never seen the other one before.
Although he was surprised that Emperor Haoyue was accompanied by Emperor Xuanyang when he summoned him, Yang Qi still stepped forward quickly and said respectfully, "Disciple greets Grandmaster, Elder Xuanyang and Senior."
“No need to be polite.” Emperor Haoyue smiled slightly, looked at the man in black and gray clothes beside him and said, “This is Emperor Xuanyin of the Corpse Puppet Sect.”
The Martial Emperor of the Corpse Puppet Sect
Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses. The Corpse Puppet Sect itself was a branch of the Green Emperor Palace. The relationship between the Corpse Puppet Sect and the Green Emperor Palace was just like the relationship between the Tianwu Sect and the Corpse Puppet Sect. It was not surprising that the Martial Emperor of the Corpse Puppet Sect appeared here.
However, although the Corpse Puppet Sect has two Martial Emperors, one of them is a corpse puppet. There is only one true cultivator Martial Emperor, and that is Emperor Xuanyin, the Sect Master of the Corpse Puppet Sect!
"Junior greets Senior Xuanyin." Yang Qi spoke again.
Emperor Xuanyin's eyes fell on Yang Qi. After a moment's thought, he said with emotion, "I have heard of you a long time ago. It's a pity that you are not good at corpse puppets. Otherwise, I would have taken action to recruit you into the sect. Now it is really a bargain for old guys like Xuanyang."
"Xuanyin, it would be useless even if you took action earlier. Yang Qi entered the martial arts world because of Haoyang." Emperor Xuanyang said with a chuckle.
Um
Hearing the conversation between the two, Yang Qi was stunned. Emperor Xuanyang actually told Emperor Xuanyin about Emperor Haoyang. This was beyond his expectation. Obviously, the relationship between the two sects was closer than he imagined. Otherwise, Emperor Xuanyang would never have told Emperor Xuanyin about Emperor Haoyang's death.
"You, the Tianwu Sect, are really lucky." Emperor Xuanyin said with a complicated expression.
When the Corpse Puppet Sect was first established, it was not weaker than the Tianwu Sect, and was even slightly stronger thanks to its corpse puppets. However, over the years, the Corpse Puppet Sect has been declining, after all, even puppets have a lifespan limit. So much so that when practitioners now mention the two major cultivation forces in the Tianwu Continent, they all know that the Tianwu Sect is stronger than the Corpse Puppet Sect, and even the Corpse Puppet Sect has to admit this.
"Don't embarrass yourself in front of the younger generation." Emperor Haoyue sighed, then looked at Yang Qi and said, "I asked you to come here this time because you accepted Wei Yi's challenge."
Yang Qi had expected this, so he did not hide his thoughts and said directly, "I was indeed a little reckless in this matter, but I think that if I just keep forbearing and giving in, the other party will only get more aggressive, so I agreed to fight Wei Yi."
"Who said I want to blame you?" Emperor Haoyue said speechlessly.
"Um?"
Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Emperor Haoyue and said, "Then the Grandmaster summoned me here, is..."
He originally thought that Emperor Haoyue did not agree with his approach, but now it seems that Emperor Haoyue has no intention of blaming him. Then what is the purpose of summoning him here
"My Qingdi lineage has been silent for so many years. It's time to show our strength. Otherwise, no one can dare to bully us." Emperor Haoyue snorted and looked at Yang Qi. "I summoned you here to tell you why Wei Yi challenged you."
Is it really like this
Yang Qi smiled bitterly in his heart. He didn't expect that Emperor Haoyue summoned him for this matter. However, he was also very curious about why Wei Yi challenged him. After all, this kind of challenge by name was obviously targeted.
Although he had some guesses before, those guesses had no basis at all since he knew nothing.
Wow~
As soon as Emperor Haoyue finished speaking, he moved his hand and a sword-shaped talisman fell into Yang Qi's hand.
"This is the token for entering the Zhenwu realm." The voice of Emperor Haoyue came.
"True Martial Realm?"
Yang Qi's face changed slightly, and he subconsciously exclaimed, "Is this the secret realm left behind by the Zhenwu Emperor?"
The Great Emperor Zhenwu was the founder of the Zhenwu Sect, a legendary Emperor who ruled this star field and founded the Zhenwu Sect, which has been standing strong until now. After the death of the Great Emperor Zhenwu, he left behind the Zhenwu Realm. However, unlike the Xuanjian Realm in the Xuanjian Realm, the Zhenwu Realm has always been controlled by the Zhenwu Sect, and only the practitioners of the Zhenwu Sect can enter it. Therefore, although there are news about the Zhenwu Realm circulating in the outside world, the credibility of the news itself is not great.
"Yes, it is the secret realm left by Emperor Zhenwu!" Emperor Haoyue nodded.
"Then the reason why Wei Yi challenged me was because of this token?"
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows, and understood the reason why Wei Yi challenged him. He then said in a deep voice, "If it wasn't me, this token should belong to Wei Yi, right?"
Yang Qi has only been in Zhenwu Sect for two months. In such a short time, the high-ranking officials of Zhenwu Sect probably don't know of his existence. It is even more impossible for him to get a place in Zhenwu Realm. But now he has got the opportunity to enter Zhenwu Realm. It is obvious that Emperor Haoyue and others are behind it. Zhenwu Realm cannot be opened because of Yang Qi's arrival. In other words, the opening of Zhenwu Realm is a matter that has been determined long ago. Even if the place has not been finalized, practitioners like Wei Yi must have had an idea long ago. Now that Yang Qi has taken away the opportunity, it is understandable that Wei Yi came to challenge him.
Emperor Haoyue looked at Yang Qi, smiled slightly and said, "You are quite smart. In this case, you should have thought of the real purpose of Wei Yi's challenge to you this time, right?"
Yang Qi nodded. Wei Yi challenged him, and naturally he wanted to use this token as a bet. If Yang Qi didn't fall for it, he would defeat Yang Qi by suppressing his cultivation, and his talent and potential would naturally be higher than Yang Qi's. With the mediation of his master, the ownership of this token might still be uncertain.
Yang Qi looked at Emperor Haoyue and said with a wry smile, "So, Master should not have left the Qing Emperor Palace before, right?"
Since Emperor Haoyue knew the reason for this matter clearly, it was naturally impossible for him to leave the Qingdi Palace at this time. The so-called departure before was just an excuse.
"As for this matter, we Martial Emperors will not intervene until you decide the winner. All decisions are up to you." Emperor Haoyue nodded slightly.
Hearing this, Yang Qi still didn't understand. After a moment's silence, he looked at Emperor Haoyue and said, "In other words, I can use this token as a bet?"
Um
After these words were spoken, Emperor Haoyue and the other two were stunned. They obviously did not expect Yang Qi to have such courage.
“You know, once you lose the token, even if the Qingdi Palace makes another effort, it will be of no avail.” Emperor Haoyue looked at Yang Qi and said.
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi smiled calmly and said, "Since you want to gamble, then gamble big, otherwise it will definitely disappoint many people!" (To be continued)
