(This is the last update for the day! I'm vomiting blood!)
— —
Jian Wushuang raised his eyebrows and looked at the Lord Of The Ninth Nether strangely.
He had a grudge with the Lord Of The Ninth Nether, and the Lord Of The Ninth Nether had wanted to kill him.
However, after the trip to the Three-Emperors World, the grudge between them had been resolved. Now, there was no more grudge between them. In fact, it could be said that they were very close friends.
Jian Wushuang knew the Lord Of The Ninth Nether well. Although he was jealous, he was not careless when it came to matters of right and wrong.
After a pause, the Lord Of The Ninth Nether continued, "I wanted to kill you, Sword Emperor. However, my intention to kill you was open and aboveboard. The Great Emperors of the Holy League all knew about it. I just didn't want to see you grow and surpass me, but I didn't hide it."
"However, Zi Xu is different!"
"Back then, before the crisis of the Eternal Chaotic World was revealed and before I really took action against you, Zi Xu revealed his intention to kill you when he was talking to me. Now that I think about it, there was some element of instigation in his conversation with me."
"Instigated?" Jian Wushuang was stunned.
Great Emperor Zi Xu wanted to kill him and instigated the Lord Of The Ninth Nether to come and kill him?
However, when Great Emperor Zi Xu met Jian Wushuang, he was very gentle and humble. He didn't show anything different.
The Great Emperors of the Holy League, other than the Lord Of The Ninth Nether, probably didn't know that Great Emperor Zi Xu wanted to kill him.
"As far as I know, Zi Xu is undisciplined and gentle. He doesn't care about the matters of the Holy League. He also doesn't take the initiative to cause trouble. However, he secretly killed Real God Wu Bei and wanted to kill you, Jian Wushuang. However, neither you nor Real God Wu Bei took the initiative to provoke him. Besides, both of you are Inverse Cultivators. This is interesting," the White Emperor muttered, but his voice was cold.
"Of course, this alone isn't enough to confirm that Zi Xu is a spy. It could be that he isn't as broad-minded as we think," the Lord Of The Ninth Nether said.
"Indeed." Jian Wushuang nodded, "However, there is another reason why I suspect him. Lord Of The Ninth Nether, do you remember that Great Emperor Colored Glaze asked you and Great Emperor Zi Xu to attack Green Fire World together?"
"Of course I remember. Back then, I thought that I would definitely win. I didn't expect you to be so powerful. Moreover, there was a mysterious expert helping you," the Lord Of The Ninth Nether said.
"That mysterious expert is Lord Spirit Sound. He has some friendship with me." Jian Wushuang smiled, "Back then, Lord Spirit Sound took action and suppressed Great Emperor Zi Xu. However, after the battle, Lord Spirit Sound told me that Great Emperor Zi Xu … was hiding his power on purpose."
"What?" the Lord Of The Ninth Nether suddenly looked at him in shock.
"Zi Xu has been hiding his power?" the White Emperor creased his eyebrows.
On the other hand, Jian Wushuang's eyes were filled with a layer of sharp light.
Back then, after the battle between Lord Spirit Sound and Great Emperor Zi Xu, she did tell him to be wary of Great Emperor Zi Xu. Because she could tell that Great Emperor Zi Xu's power wasn't as simple as it seemed. One should know that Great Emperor Zi Xu's power was ranked fifth on Eternal Chaotic World's Heaven and Earth Supreme ranking list.
If he was so powerful even though he was hiding his power, how powerful would he be if he were to unleash his full power?
"It seems that Great Emperor Zi Xu isn't as simple as we thought," the White Emperor said in a deep voice. Emperor Bai said in a low voice. Although he saw Great Emperor Zi Xu often, he had never fought with him. Hence, he could not tell if Great Emperor Zi Xu was hiding his strength.
However, Lord Spirit Sound was an expert from ancient times. She was powerful and she had fought with Great Emperor Zi Xu before. She definitely wouldn't have come to such a conclusion without any reason.
"Combining these two reasons, plus what you said earlier, Lord Of The Ninth Nether, I think that Great Emperor Zi Xu is very suspicious," Jian Wushuang said.
Of course, he only said that he was suspicious, but he couldn't confirm it.
After all, he didn't have any solid evidence.
"As long as we have a suspect, we can investigate it slowly. When we return to the Holy League, I will investigate it personally," the White Emperor said.
"Mm," Jian Wushuang and the other two nodded heavily.
"Oh yeah, there's one more thing." Jian Wushuang spoke again, "Many years ago, when I was only in the sixth step of inverse cultivation, the Star Lineage was in the teeth of the storm because of the news of the death of the Palace Master of the Star Lineage. I went to the Emperor Sword Sect once. On my way back, I encountered an assassination attempt by a mysterious expert!"
"The mysterious expert was extremely powerful. I'm afraid he wasn't much weaker than the Underworld God who was ranked number one among the Emperor Gods. Plus, he had a killer move that could unleash power that wasn't inferior to that of a Great Emperor. At that time, he posed quite a threat to me. As for the mysterious expert, I still don't know who he was, nor do I know who sent him."
"But there's one point. He couldn't be an expert from the Acheron Palace. Because I encountered an assassination attempt from the Acheron Palace before, I know their methods. If they wanted to assassinate me, they wouldn't have sent him alone. They would have made meticulous preparations."
Hearing that, the White Emperor nodded faintly.
"The expert who tried to assassinate you, I will check on him personally. The Holocaust Sect and the Acheron Palace have stayed in the dark in the Eternal Chaotic World for so many years. As they took action, they definitely made meticulous preparations. Over the years, they have planted more than one or two experts in the Holy League. Now that the dark millstone has stopped completely, the Holy League doesn't have to be in a hurry to have a decisive battle with them!"
"Let's take advantage of the time when we are preparing for the battle to find all the vermin," the White Emperor's eyes were glowing with a fierce light. He was obviously furious.
The Lord Of The Ninth Nether and Emperor Jiu Qiao saw and nodded faintly.
The Holy League and the Eternal Chaotic World had really been peaceful for too long.
Under the peace, there were definitely some vermin, some spies that were planted by the other party. Then, it was time for them to make a move.
As the four of them chatted, they returned to the buildings in the dark surrounding the Holy League in no time.
Not long after the four of them returned, the Great Emperors who had been ordered by the White Emperor to pick up Jian Wushuang in the Bronze Heart Region came back too.
The Great Emperors had indeed made a trip to the Bronze Heart Region. However, they didn't see Jian Wushuang. Instead, they met the Great Emperors from the Three-Emperors World. Both parties fought a great battle but there wasn't a winner. On top of that, the White Emperor had sent a message and they retreated in time.
On the way back, the Great Emperors were still confused as they didn't understand the cause and effect of the incident.
Only one person understood what was going on in his heart.
The person was naturally Great Emperor Zi Xu!
On the surface, he still maintained an indifferent attitude, but his heart was extremely heavy.
"It seems that the White Emperor has realized that there is a spy among the higher-ups in the Holy League. I wonder if he will suspect me?"
