The empress calmed down and sent a voice transmission to Mu Chen. She couldn't let the two of them go. She had to figure out the origins of the black fog.
Although Mu Chen didn't quite understand, the empress's words meant that the matter wasn't simple.
He didn't ask further.
Shi Jiu, on the other hand, was a little angry.
The Fourth Tribulation Eminence — who was following Ninth Stone — opened his eyes.
He didn't look at Mu Chen. Instead, he looked at the empress of Yue. Although he didn't speak, his cold snort shook the hall.
"Senior Shi Han, I was indeed rude!" The empress nodded slightly to express her apology.
Shi Han was an influential figure in Stone Kingdom in the previous era.
Back then, he had the combat strength of a peak Fourth Tribulation Eminence. Unfortunately, he failed to transcend the tribulation. Now that he had reached the Itinerant Tribulation realm, he had the combat strength of an ordinary Fourth Tribulation Eminence.
Even so, he wanted to take action, but he was stopped by Ninth Stone.
If he took action, the empress would definitely take the opportunity to chase him away.
He had endured a lot for Jin Chen.
"Your Majesty Feng Chen, don't forget that he is Lord Fifth's grandson. He has the blood of our Shi family!" Shi Han's voice was very loud. He wasn't bragging.
In the current Ancient Wood Continent, the Shi family was an influential existence.
Furthermore, Stone Kingdom had a fire deity that could suppress King Divine Wood.
The tiny Yue Kingdom actually bullied a Shi family descendant.
If not for Ninth Stone's infatuation, he would have exposed this matter and let the Yue Kingdom know how terrifying Stone Kingdom was when it was angry.
"Senior Shi Han, there's no need to say anymore. I came here because I was determined!" Ninth Stone panted heavily. First, he was injured by the power of death. Later, he suffered internal injuries from Mu Chen's attack. His divine body was somewhat unstable.
Now, his strength had decreased significantly.
However, it didn't affect him much.
Now, only Jian Wushuang was left.
As long as he defeated Jian Wushuang, he could officially marry Jin Chen. He was willing to marry into the Yue Kingdom.
It was enough that his grandfather would support him.
Princess Jin Chen's eyes were filled with heartache when she saw this scene.
The empress's expression turned ugly when she heard that.
She had never been threatened like this before.
The Shi family's anger?
The empress's eyes were filled with anger. If she were at the Seventh Tribulation realm, why would she be afraid of Stone Kingdom?
Why would she be afraid of others entering the Yue Kingdom?
Unfortunately, she wasn't!
That was why he had to risk it all.
She had to get the position of Saintess in this Sacred Assembly.
Then, she would abdicate the throne of the Yue Country and go to the Ancient Wood Sect. With endless resources, she would have no worries about the sixth tribulation.
After reaching the Sixth Tribulation realm, he focused on preparing for the seventh tribulation.
With the Ancient Wood Sect behind her, she had a lot of confidence.
If she continued to surpass it, she wouldn't have the confidence to reach the seventh tribulation even if she used the power of the entire clan.
The sixth tribulation was already the limit.
Moreover, it was unstable. Otherwise, she would have transcended the sixth tribulation long ago.
Mu Chen ignored Shi Han. Instead, he looked at Jian Wushuang and said, "It's all up to you. Don't feel pressured. Shi Jiu is already injured. You still have a chance!"
Jian Wushuang nodded lightly and took a step forward, arriving in front of Ninth Stone.
When the empress looked at Jian Wushuang, she couldn't see through him. She hoped that Jian Wushuang could defeat his opponent.
Behind the screen, Princess Royal, Jin Chen, also stared at Jian Wushuang. She always felt that Jian Wushuang was very similar to the mysterious expert she had met at Hundred Flowers Mountain. She was very worried.
"You are very strong!" Jian Wushuang faced Shi Jiu.
No one expected Jian Wushuang's first sentence to be praising Shi Jiu.
Shi Jiu smiled and said indifferently, "Although I can't see through you, I can sense that you are different from the previous three!"
"Indeed, I'm a little different!" Jian Wushuang admitted directly without hiding anything.
With that said, under everyone's surprised gazes, he took out a Life Fruit from his mustard seed. It was the one he had brought from the Disambiguation Temple.
This was a supreme treasure that could increase one's divine body. It was also a supreme treasure that could recover one's divine body.
In spacetime where divine power was dominant, it was most suitable for cultivators.
Swoosh!
Jian Wushuang threw it over without any hesitation.
Shi Jiu was stunned for a moment, but still caught it.
Not only Shi Jiu, but the others also didn't understand what Jian Wushuang was doing.
Emperor Mang Jia, who had been easily defeated by Shi Jiu, was even more surprised. "What is he doing?"
The Empress's eyes kept flashing. She didn't understand Jian Wushuang's intention.
"Brother Wu Li, what kind of method is this? Could it be that the fruit is poisonous?" Mu Chen secretly sent a voice transmission and guessed.
Wu Li rolled his eyes. He felt that this prince was too embarrassing. He said directly, "It's nothing. Maybe one of my nephews thinks that it's too embarrassing to defeat an injured emperor!"
"This …" Mu Chen was completely stunned.
Wasn't he being a little too confident?
Shi Jiu had already used more than 150,000 divine power, and that was when he was injured.
Maybe he was even stronger than that and had a backup plan.
Wasn't he afraid of losing?
At this time, he couldn't care less. He reminded Jian Wushuang, "Nephew Wushuang, you have to think carefully. Whoever marries Jin Chen will have a place in the Sacred Assembly!"
"Brother Mu Chen, it's pointless to say this!"
Shi Han, who was standing at the side, sneered at the two. However, he was impressed by Jian Wushuang's actions.
Compared to the previous few, Jian Wushuang was obviously more pleasing to the eye.
"This idiot, he wasted his trump card!"
The two emperors who had almost been killed by Shi Jiu looked at Jian Wushuang as if he was an idiot.
Shi Jiu held the green fruit in his hand and checked it with his mind power. He didn't find anything wrong with it. He said sincerely, "Thank you!"
Crunch!
He bit down, and green juice flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
Powerful vitality and endless divine power instantly surged into Shi Jiu's body.
In an instant, he was back to his peak state. He was even slightly stronger than before.
Buzz!
Shi Jiu clenched his fists and exerted a little force. His divine power erupted and the power of thunder appeared on his body.
150,000 divine power.
"How is it? You've recovered, right?" Jian Wushuang asked.
Shi Jiu took out 100,000 cubes of cosmic crystals from his mustard seed and said gratefully, "Please accept it. It's a waste to give such a precious treasure to me!"
He actually had a treasure for recovery, but its effect was definitely not as good as the Fruit of Life.
"It's just a fruit. It's not worth mentioning!" Jian Wushuang smiled and shook his head. However, since the other party insisted, he would accept it.
Otherwise, the other party would be too embarrassed to use his full strength.
Elder Mu Chen couldn't help but wonder if Jian Wushuang had been bribed.
Just as he was about to speak, Wu Li pulled him back.
He was also from the Yue Nation. Although he wasn't from the royal family, he felt that if Mu Chen continued, the Yue Nation would lose face.
Although the Empress didn't understand, she still approved of Jian Wushuang's actions.
A battle between gentlemen was fair and square.
