Um
Yang Qi was startled. He didn't expect that the martial king peak cultivator would let him leave. Yang Qi didn't know that the token in his hand was actually a token of the martial king level. Although the martial king peak cultivator couldn't detect Yang Qi's breath fluctuations, he was only holding this token. It was estimated that he was at most a four or five-star martial emperor, and he couldn't compete with the strong man who could easily shake the garrison formation.
This was also the reason why the peak Martial King practitioner asked Yang Qi to leave quickly. After all, Yang Qi was no match for the invading powerful enemy, and staying would only lead to his death.
"Then I'll go ask the Seven Star Martial Emperor."
Yang Qi shrugged, and then disappeared from the mission hall of the base.
"this… "
Looking at the disappearing Yang Qi, the expression of the peak Martial King practitioner couldn't help but change slightly.
You should know that he did not activate the protective formation, but Yang Qi was able to leave the base directly from the protective formation. With such strength, he must be at least at the level of a seven-star Martial Emperor, or even stronger. After all, ordinary high-level Martial Emperors cannot forcibly travel through space to enter the base.
“There’s help!”
A glimmer of hope appeared on the desperate face of the peak Martial King cultivator. If Yang Qi was a high-level Martial Emperor, even if he could not defeat the invading enemy, he could at least delay some time and hold out until the reinforcements from their side arrived, and then he would be safe.
In mid-air, a cultivator covered in a black robe looked at the dim but still intact protective formation, and could not help but frowned slightly and said, "As expected of a cultivation force with a mid-level Martial Emperor in charge, even a protective formation of an ordinary garrison can actually withstand the attack of a high-level Martial Emperor for a short period of time."
The one who had attacked the protective formation before was the cultivator in front of him. He originally planned to break the protective formation of the base with one blow, but he did not expect that the protective formation would not break directly after withstanding his full-strength attack.
"It's a pity that this level of protective formation is still a little insufficient when facing this emperor." The cultivator smiled coldly and shook the big knife in his hand. In an instant, a black blade light shot out from his hand and fell towards the Xuanming Sect's headquarters.
Bang!
Just as the blade was about to fall, a figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere and blocked the falling blade.
"Who are you?" Looking at the green-robed cultivator who suddenly appeared and blocked his attack, the black-robed cultivator's expression changed slightly.
Yang Qi looked at the cultivator in black robes in front of him, frowned slightly and said, "I should be the one asking you this question. Who are you and why are you attacking the Xuanming Sect's protective formation?"
If he had not sensed the evil and violent aura from the black-robed practitioner, he would have suspected that the practitioner in front of him was from the Immortal Temple.
"Since you are not a practitioner of the Xuanming Sect, it is best not to interfere in this matter. This matter is not something that a Martial Emperor like you can interfere in." The black-robed practitioner said coldly.
"Yeah?"
Yang Qi chuckled, and then a strong aura burst out from his body, and he spoke again, "What about now?"
"Wu... Wu Emperor Realm!" The black-robed cultivator's pupils shrank and he exclaimed in surprise.
He never thought that the green-shirted cultivator in front of him was actually a cultivator at the Martial Emperor level. No wonder he couldn't detect the other person's aura at all. At first, he thought that the other person had concealed his aura, but now it seems that it was not that the other person had concealed his aura, but that with his strength, he could not sense Yang Qi's aura at all.
"Martial Emperor Realm?"
Inside the base's protective formation, the Martial King at the peak of his power suddenly had a look of disbelief on his face when he heard these words. The green-robed cultivator was actually a Martial Emperor
But how could a strong man at the Martial Emperor level come with a token of the Martial King level
"Martial Emperor Realm!"
The black-robed cultivator had a bitter look on his face. Although there were many Martial Emperors in the Damuo Star Region, the probability of encountering a Martial Emperor was pitifully small. He never expected to encounter one.
"Am I qualified to know now?" Yang Qi looked at the black-robed practitioner and said.
As soon as Yang Qi finished speaking, the black-robed cultivator begged for mercy, "Senior, spare my life. I am only following orders. The other party is a Martial Emperor. Under coercion and inducement, I had no choice but to attack the Xuanming Sect's base."
"Um?"
Yang Qi was stunned. He never expected that the black-robed cultivator in front of him would actually beg for mercy like this. After all, this was a cultivator who dared to directly attack the Xuanming Sect’s base. The Xuanming Sect itself had many Martial Emperors, including mid-level Martial Emperors. This person was not even afraid of the Xuanming Sect, but was actually afraid of him. This was really beyond his expectation.
The Xuanming Sect was indeed much stronger than Yang Qi, but the territory controlled by the Xuanming Sect was also extremely vast. There were countless garrisons like this, and it was impossible to send a Martial Emperor to each garrison. The black-robed cultivator in front of him was a seven-star Martial Emperor. Even in the Xuanming Sect, he was considered a top-level cultivator below the Martial Emperor. As long as he didn't directly encounter a cultivator stronger than him, he wouldn't be afraid even if the other party was from the Xuanming Sect.
But he encountered a powerful martial emperor directly. The black-robed cultivator didn't even have a chance to escape. How could he not be afraid? Naturally, he took the initiative to beg for mercy.
Yang Qi's eyes narrowed, and he shouted coldly, "Who is that Martial Emperor?"
"Junior, I don't know either." The black-robed cultivator laughed bitterly and explained hastily, "Before, a Martial Emperor came to me and threatened and bribed me to attack the Xuanming Sect's headquarters. If I didn't attack, he would kill me. If I did, he would get some treasures. I had no choice but to attack the Xuanming Sect's headquarters."
"So mysterious?"
Yang Qi did not frown. With his perception, he could naturally find that the black-robed cultivator showed no signs of lying. In other words, the black-robed cultivator who was secretly forcing the black-robed cultivator in front of him did not know the identity of the other party.
"It shouldn't be the Qingxuan Sect." Yang Qi said secretly in his heart.
Although the Qingxuan Sect has been constantly fighting with the Xuanming Sect, and even secretly supported the demons to enter the territory controlled by the Xuanming Sect to cause trouble, as long as the Qingxuan Sect does not want to go to war with the Xuanming Sect directly, it is impossible for it to send strong men in the Martial Emperor Realm to secretly deal with the Xuanming Sect, or even attack the Xuanming Sect's base. Doing so is equivalent to declaring war on the Xuanming Sect directly.
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows and sighed in his heart, "Unknown enemies are the most troublesome."
If they knew the origin of the Martial Emperor, it would be fine. With the strength of Xuanming Sect, they could deal with him. But without knowing the identity and strength of the other party, Xuanming Sect could only passively defend. Especially when the Martial Emperor attacked without regard for his face, it would definitely be a huge trouble for a big force like Xuanming Sect.
The black-robed practitioner looked at Yang Qi cautiously and said slowly, "Senior, I have told you everything I know. Can I leave now?" (To be continued)
