The weakest ones are all at the Martial Emperor level
Hearing the words of the visitor, the expressions of Emperor Tengshan and the other two could not help but change slightly. Although the territories of both sides did not prohibit the exchanges between practitioners, they were all practitioners at the Martial Emperor level, and there were quite a few of them, which obviously meant something was not right.
The tall man looked at the newcomers, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "If they are just some Martial Emperor cultivators, even if there is a problem, how can we conclude that they may be related to the three late-stage Nine-Star Martial Emperor cultivators?"
The strength of ordinary martial emperor practitioners is definitely not too strong. Compared with the late nine-star martial emperor practitioners, they are not at the same level at all. Two practitioners of different levels may not have any intersection, maybe it's just a coincidence.
"We were not sure at first, but according to our investigation, this group of Martial Emperor-level practitioners seemed to be looking for something in the territory we control. And those three practitioners had stayed for a period of time in the place that this group of practitioners had explored, so we speculate that these sudden arrivals of Martial Emperor-level practitioners are related to those three mysterious practitioners." The visitor immediately began to explain.
this…
Hearing the words of the visitor, Emperor Tengshan fell silent. If it was just a coincidence that those ordinary Martial Emperor cultivators and Emperor Wu Shi and his two companions appeared together in the star field controlled by the Quetzalcoatl Palace, then the routes of action of both parties actually intersected, and it was an extremely obvious intersection. This could not be explained by coincidence.
"In this case, those Martial Emperor Realm practitioners may have had some connection with the three mysterious practitioners." Emperor Tengshan nodded slightly, and then continued, "Attack the group of Martial Emperor Realm practitioners immediately and see if we can learn the whereabouts of the three mysterious practitioners from them."
"Yes!" The visitor nodded slightly and immediately left the hall.
In order to find out the whereabouts of Emperor Wu Shi and his two companions this time, the Quetzalcoatl Palace obviously paid a considerable price. Now, they can have a chance to find out the whereabouts of Emperor Wu Shi and his two companions by just dealing with some ordinary Martial Emperor-level practitioners. Naturally, Emperor Tengshan will not have any scruples.
The three of Wu Shi Emperor were powerful and had good perception abilities, so they could naturally avoid the practitioners of Quetzalcoatl Palace who were tracking them down, but those ordinary martial arts emperor-level practitioners did not have this ability. Now that they were investigated by Quetzalcoatl Palace, it was not a strange thing, but the three of Wu Shi Emperor did not expect that the Quetzalcoatl Palace would take direct action.
Emperor Wu Shi looked at Emperor Ji Yan beside him and asked solemnly, "What's the situation?"
Just as they were rushing to the area near Quetzalcoatl Palace, Emperor Ji Yan received a message from his practitioners, in which he learned that a team of practitioners under his command had encountered a strong man from Quetzalcoatl Palace and had lost contact, and they were probably in great danger.
"All six practitioners in the team were wiped out." Emperor Ji Yan sighed slightly. These six practitioners were all practitioners under the command of the Holy Lord of Extinction. Although they were only low-level Martial Emperor-level practitioners, they were all dead now. Emperor Ji Yan felt somewhat sad.
If it weren't for this operation, these six practitioners would have stayed in the territory controlled by the Lord of Silent Destruction without the risk of falling, and they would have been able to go further on the path of cultivation in the future. But just for the opportunity for Emperor Ji Yan to step into the peak of the Martial Emperor, six low-level Martial Emperor-level practitioners ventured into the Tianhai Realm and helped them search for suspected locations, which led to this end.
Even Emperor Ji Yan himself knew clearly that the strong men of Quetzalcoatl Palace attacked the six low-level Martial Emperors probably because of the death of Emperor Teng Zhong. This matter was closely related to them, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they killed the six low-level Martial Emperors!
After hearing what Emperor Ji Yan said, Yang Qi and Emperor Wu Shi fell silent. After all, these six practitioners died because of them.
After all, Emperor Ji Yan was not an ordinary cultivator. He cultivated all the way to the late stage of the Nine-Star Martial Emperor and was used to seeing life and death. He quickly recovered and looked at Emperor Wu Shi and the other two and said, "But don't worry, they don't know the identities or locations of the three of us. We haven't been exposed yet."
The only practitioners who knew the locations of Emperor Ji Yan's three clones were the very few practitioners in charge of this operation, while the six-member team did not know the identities and origins of Yang Qi and the other two.
"Although they don't know our identities and origins, or even our purpose and location, the cultivators who are responsible for helping us identify the suspected location have obviously been exposed. It would be very dangerous for them to stay." Yang Qi glanced at Emperor Ji Yan, and then continued, "This emperor suggests that we let them leave. On the one hand, it can ensure their safety, and on the other hand, it can also increase our safety."
Since Quetzalcoatl Palace has already investigated the existence of this group of practitioners, it is only a matter of time before they find other teams. Although the number of practitioners in this group is not small, their strength is very limited, and they are no match for the strong men of Quetzalcoatl Palace.
If they continue to stay, their fate is almost foreseeable. Although Yang Qi is used to seeing life and death, he does not want these practitioners to stay and make unnecessary sacrifices. Therefore, he proposed to let these practitioners leave the area controlled by Quetzalcoatl Palace. However, he is not a practitioner under the command of the Lord of Extinction after all. How to make the final decision depends on Emperor Ji Yan himself.
“Fellow Daoist Ji Yan, my opinion is the same as Emperor Xu Xing’s. There is no need for other practitioners to stay and make meaningless sacrifices.” Emperor Wu Shi looked at Emperor Ji Yan and said.
"Don't worry, my two Taoist friends. I am not a cold-blooded person." Emperor Ji Yan smiled calmly and continued, "In the next operation, they can no longer help. I will ask them to hide and leave the area controlled by the Feathered Serpent Palace as soon as possible."
Hearing what Emperor Ji Yan said, Yang Qi and Emperor Wu Shi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. They were really afraid that Emperor Ji Yan would ignore the lives of those low-level Martial Emperor practitioners in order to get the opportunity to break through to the peak of Martial Emperor. After all, in the eyes of many powerful people, the lives of weak creatures are not worth mentioning at all. This kind of cognition is very common in the endless universe.
Fortunately, Yang Qi and Emperor Wu Shi were relieved that although Emperor Ji Yan had been seeking an opportunity to break through the peak of the Martial Emperor, he was obviously not a cold-blooded and heartless person. This made Yang Qi and Emperor Wu Shi feel more favorable towards Emperor Ji Yan.
After all, these practitioners who care about the lives of weak creatures often attach great importance to friendship, so naturally there is no need to worry about the other party's betrayal. They are practitioners worth making friends with.
After Emperor Ji Yan sent a message to inform his practitioners, he looked at Yang Qi and Emperor Wu Shi in front of him, smiled slightly and said, "From now on, we can only rely on ourselves."
"Why should we be afraid of this?" Emperor Wu Shi and Yang Qi looked at each other and chuckled. (To be continued)
