"The Strongest Martial Emperor in the City"!
Bang! Bang!
The violent aftermath swept over, and Yang Qi and the other three were blown away more than ten thousand feet before they could barely stabilize themselves.
Buzz~
The moment he stabilized his body, Yang Qi's perception quickly covered the area where the three black-robed men self-destructed. After confirming that the three men did not take advantage of the power of the self-destruction to escape, he was completely relieved.
The sudden explosion of the three black-robed men also consumed some of Yang Qi's vitality. After all, he was the closest to the three men when they besieged him, so he naturally bore the strongest force of the explosion. As for Wang He and the other two, they were also in a bit of a mess. The explosion of three five-star late-stage martial emperors was not so easy to bear.
Seeing the embarrassed Yang Qi, Wang He quickly stepped forward and said, "Brother Xuxing, are you okay?"
"I'm fine!"
Yang Qi shook his head slightly. He was good at saving his life. He was not afraid even if the three men in black robes fought to the death, let alone the residual power of the final self-explosion.
Wang He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and immediately said, "Clean up the battlefield and leave quickly."
The three men in black robes were practitioners of the Immortal Temple. After their death, the Immortal Temple would definitely notice it. They had to leave as soon as possible, otherwise the Immortal Temple would send strong men who might be able to track them down.
The three black-robed men didn't have many items left. Some of the treasures in the storage rings had long been destroyed by the three men, leaving only some Taoist soldiers and treasures that were difficult to destroy in a short time. However, Emperor Binglan left behind quite a few treasures. Although the gains from killing Emperor Binglan this time were not great, they were not small either, after all, there were three more practitioners from the Immortal Temple.
When everyone was cleaning up the battlefield, Yang Qi's shadow clone finally couldn't hold on and completely dissipated. Fortunately, it was just a clone of Tao, and even if it dissipated, it would not have any impact on Yang Qi's original body for the time being, unless he condensed a clone again.
The battlefield was soon cleaned up, and Yang Qi and the other three gathered together again. Emperor Yanque looked at Yang Qi and Wang He and asked, "What should we do next?"
"We have been targeted by the Immortal Temple. This time, the other party is not aware of Brother Xu Xing's methods and strength, so they only sent three five-star late-stage martial emperor practitioners. If they attack again, the strength of the practitioners they send will definitely be stronger. By then, I am afraid we will have no chance of winning." Wang He paused slightly after saying this, and then continued, "We still have one demon-slaying mission left to complete. This trip to the chaotic star sea has already yielded huge gains. There is no need to stay and take risks. I suggest you go back to the Holy Church headquarters directly."
"I agree with Brother Wang He's opinion." Yang Qi nodded slightly.
There was no news about the target of the remaining demon-killing mission, and no one knew when they would be able to investigate the other party's whereabouts. It was even possible that the other party, like Emperor Binglan, was a bait used by the Immortal Temple to lure them out. They had gained a lot, and there was only one demon-killing mission left. It would be a bit of a loss to stay and take risks.
"I also agree to return to the Holy Church headquarters." Emperor Qingsong on the side also spoke.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yanque nodded slightly. After all, they had already planned to abandon the mission and return to the headquarters of the Holy Source Church. Now that they were sure that the Immortal Temple had set its sights on them, there was naturally no need to take any more risks.
…
The man in black robe walked quickly and quickly came to the depths of the dim hall. He looked at the man in fancy clothes at the top and said respectfully, "Palace Master."
The man in fancy clothes looked at the newcomer, his eyes fixed, and he asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
"Emperor Yanfeng and the other three are dead." The man in black robe spoke immediately.
Um
As soon as these words came out, the man in fancy clothes' expression changed slightly, and then he asked in a deep voice, "Dead?"
"Yes." The man in black robe nodded slightly.
"waste!"
The man in fancy clothes snorted coldly and continued, "Three five-star late-stage martial emperors working with Emperor Binglan, actually can't kill four five-star mid-stage martial emperors or below?"
“Perhaps the intelligence is wrong. Otherwise, with the strength of Emperor Yanfeng and his two companions, even if the mission failed, the entire army would not be wiped out.” said the man in black robe.
The man in fancy clothes was a little unimpressed when he heard this, "With just those four practitioners, how big of an error can there be in the information?"
It's no wonder that the man in fancy clothes would have such an idea. After all, when a cultivator reaches the level of Martial Emperor, it is very difficult to fight against a higher level. The strength of Emperor Yan Feng and his four companions is far above that of Yang Qi and his four companions. Even if the strength of Yang Qi and his four companions is stronger than what is recorded in the intelligence, it is impossible for them to cause any waves.
Hearing the words of the man in fancy clothes, the man in black robe nodded in agreement. After all, they had already investigated Yang Qi and the other three before and had a certain understanding of their strength. It stood to reason that there shouldn't be too big a discrepancy.
The Immortal Temple did investigate the strength of Yang Qi and his four companions, but they did not expect that Yang Qi, who was at the peak of the Four-Star Martial Emperor, had a supernatural fighting power. Moreover, in such a team fight, the effect was even more obvious, which led to the fact that after the four companions of Emperor Yan Feng encountered Yang Qi and his four companions, they did not even have a chance to escape.
The black-robed man looked at the man in fancy clothes at the top and spoke again, "Palace Master, could it be the Inspection Palace? Recently, Emperor Xuanhe has appeared in the Chaos Star Sea, and even according to intelligence, Emperor Xuanchen is also paying attention to the Chaos Star Sea."
Inspection Hall!
The man in fancy clothes at the head of the group heard this and his face darkened. He was not afraid of other cultivation forces. Even if these cultivation forces were connected to the Source Saint Religion, they would not fight to the death with them. However, the Inspection Hall was different. Once they found any clues, they would bite them and not let go.
Thinking of this, the man in fancy clothes couldn't help but look at the man in black robes below, and said solemnly, "Pay close attention to the movements of the Inspection Palace. This emperor doesn't want the next action to be affected."
"I understand."
The black-robed man nodded, and then spoke again, "Should the four practitioners continue to send people..."
"They are only here to carry out the mission of exorcising demons. After what happened this time, I'm afraid they will go straight back to the Holy Church headquarters." A hint of helplessness flashed across the face of the man in fancy clothes, and then he spoke again, "This operation failed. There is no need to make things more complicated and send more people to deal with them."
"yes."
The man in black robe responded respectfully, then carefully left the dim hall.
After the man in black robes left, the man in fancy clothes couldn't help but sigh and said, "I hope there won't be any unexpected changes to the plan this time."
In recent times, things have been going wrong for him. Even the action that he was sure to kill Yang Qi and other four people ended in failure.
The reason why he didn't send anyone to deal with Yang Qi and the other three was not only because he didn't want to cause any trouble, but also because the man in fancy clothes wanted to concentrate his efforts on completing the plan this time to avoid any mistakes.
