All of this happened so quickly that Tang Zheng had no time to react.
There was a wolf in front of him and a tiger behind him. He was in a dilemma.
He glanced at the Emperor, but his attention was still on Li Xiaotian. He really wanted to know the news that she spoke of.
Li Xiaotian glanced at Tang Zheng and said, "Your country's warship sank because someone deliberately sabotaged it."
The Emperor's eyelids suddenly twitched. This was consistent with the results of their investigation. The large hole on the warship and the traces of battle showed that this was not caused by an explosion. It was caused by manpower and divine weapons.
This result caused the royal family to be greatly shocked. A single person with such powerful strength was enough to sink a warship. This was too terrifying.
Of course, no one would question this result.
The Royal Family had been around for thousands of years, and they had seen too many miracles. It was not just a legend for an individual to be stronger than this.
Therefore, the most important thing now was to find this person.
Time was of the essence, and the investigation had yet to conclude.
However, Li Xiaotian claimed that he had news, which made the Emperor's expression change.
Li Xiaotian was like a fisherman throwing down bait to lure the Emperor.
The Emperor had no choice but to take the bait. He was too anxious to know about this matter.
≡ ≡ ≡ ≡
"Who is it?"
"Far away on the horizon, but close at hand." Li Xiaotian's words were earth-shattering.
So far away, yet so close!
The Emperor glanced at Li Xiaotian and immediately rejected the idea that she was the culprit. His gaze then turned and locked onto Tang Zheng.
Other than Li Xiaotian, there was only one other person in the hall, Tang Zheng.
Although the Emperor did not understand why Li Xiaotian would betray his companions, he still made a prompt decision.
The Heavenly Emperor's gaze became incomparably cold, like a venomous snake spitting out its tongue. He stared straight at Tang Zheng and roared: "It's you? Catch him! "
As soon as his voice fell, figures leapt out from all directions of the hall, madly pouncing towards Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng cursed in his heart. This two-faced woman, he almost believed her, but he didn't expect that all of this was a trap.
She knew that she was no match for Tang Zheng, so she pretended to be weak. Then, she lured Tang Zheng into the depths of the palace. Facing so many experts from the Island nation, Tang Zheng would not be able to escape.
In the blink of an eye, Tang Zheng thought of this and his face turned ashen.
With so many experts surrounding him, Tang Zheng didn't have time to think. He immediately used Ground Shrink, and the distance of a few meters was reduced to zero. He dodged the attacks of the others and directly arrived in front of the Emperor.
"Baka!"
Roars and roars resounded throughout the hall as beams of cold light shot towards Tang Zheng's body.
Tang Zheng didn't care. He knew that at this critical moment, if he didn't catch the Sky Emperor, then he would be trapped in an army of tens of thousands.
All of this happened in the time it took for a spark to fly off a piece of flint. A faint smile appeared on Li Xiaotian's face as she calmly watched the scene. All of this was her masterpiece, and she was the one who caused Tang Zheng to fall into such a desperate situation.
"Tang Zheng, will you be able to escape unscathed this time?" She muttered to herself. Her face revealed a trace of excitement, as if she really wanted to know the answer to this question.
Would Tang Zheng be able to escape unscathed?
He didn't know, and he didn't have time to think about it.
He could clearly feel the monstrous killing intent behind him, as if it was going to tear him apart.
He knew that his previous feeling was correct. There were indeed experts among these ambushers, and at least one of them was an expert of the Evolved Jing Stage.
Tang Zheng had dealt with Evolved Jing Stage experts too many times, so when the other party made a move, he could tell.
This was one disaster after another.
He had to stake it all on this.
He didn't even turn his head. His speed was even faster as he attacked the Sky Emperor with lightning speed.
The Sky Emperor retreated in panic, but he was sitting on the throne and had no way to retreat.
Ka!
Tang Zheng's hand grabbed the Sky Emperor's neck. With a flip of his hand, the Sky Emperor was lifted up from the throne and blocked in front of Tang Zheng, becoming his human shield.
"Baka!"
The experts all cursed and retreated. A few of them couldn't retreat in time and almost stabbed their weapons into the Sky Emperor's chest.
Tang Zheng was like a killing god. His entire body was releasing a dense killing intent. His eyes were wide open as he stared angrily and shouted, "Retreat, or I'll kill him immediately!"
With the Sky Emperor in his hand, Tang Zheng heaved a sigh of relief.
If he didn't make a prompt decision to not retreat and capture the Sky Emperor as a hostage, he would have fallen into a chaotic battle.
The Sky Emperor's expression changed as he roared, "How dare you, you actually dare to capture me!"
Tang Zheng's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he slapped his face and said, "Now you are my captive. Without my orders, you are not allowed to speak. Otherwise, I will make your face swell up like a pig's head."
Everyone was stunned as they looked at the Sky Emperor who had a clear handprint on his face. They felt that everything was too unreal, like it was a dream.
As the ruler of a country, he was actually captured by an outsider in his own palace and humiliated in front of his own people. This was simply a huge humiliation.
The Sky Emperor was stunned and didn't come back to his senses. After a while, he started to shout. This time, he didn't use the Hua Xia language but the Island nation language.
On the verge of collapse, he finally subconsciously chose his mother tongue.
Tang Zheng didn't understand what he was saying, but it definitely wasn't anything good. Since he didn't listen, then there was no need to be polite with him.
Tang Zheng originally didn't have any respect for the Sky Emperor. Instead, he was filled with enmity. Since there was such a heaven-sent opportunity, then wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't punish him? Moreover, the Island nation and Hua Xia were old enemies. If he slapped the Sky Emperor a few more times, then he would get back some interest from the invasion of the past.
He suddenly had an idea. If there was a reporter who recorded this scene and spread it around the world, then the effect would be even better. The Island nation's fate would be completely destroyed. In a short period of time, not only the royal family, but even the people wouldn't be able to raise their heads.
Li Xiaotian's eyes lit up and praised, "What a powerful character. He can often do unexpected things. At this critical moment of life and death, he still did such a shocking thing. Hehe, if he wasn't a cultivator, I really wouldn't want to spend so much effort to be his enemy."
She faintly sighed and thought in her heart, "Unfortunately, his identity as a cultivator is destined to be my enemy. Even the experience of going through thick and thin together in the past can't change all of this."
The Sky Emperor stopped his clamor, because Tang Zheng gave him a few more slaps on the face. He was about to go crazy, this person's guts were too big.
As the saying goes, a wise man submits to circumstances. The Sky Emperor was also such a smart person.
At this critical moment, provoking the other party was not a wise move. Instead, it would provoke the other party's anger. In the end, the one who would suffer losses was himself.
However, he still used his extremely angry eyes to stare at Tang Zheng, as if he wanted to swallow him in one bite.
Tang Zheng ignored him and shouted at the crowd, "Back off a little. Don't block the way. Otherwise, your Sky Emperor will go to see King Yama."
Everyone looked at each other and had no choice but to back off a little.
"This is a wise move."
"Who exactly are you? You dare to come to my Island nation and stir up trouble." One of the people in the crowd used Hua Xia language to ask.
Tang Zheng's pupils constricted as his gaze locked onto this person.
This person's aura was too strong. Tang Zheng could tell at a glance that he was the powerful Master level warrior that he felt. This person should be around 60 years old. He had a white beard under his nose. He wore a set of warrior's clothes and wooden clogs. There was a katana at his waist. His gaze was gloomy and his aura was terrifying.
"Who I am is not important. What is important is that you must honestly tell me what I want to know. Otherwise, even if I die, I will drag your Sky Emperor down with me." Tang Zheng said fearlessly.
In the midst of tens of thousands of soldiers, he was calm and composed. This calm and composed demeanor of a great general was impressive.
However, the people of the Island nation only felt fear and anger. Where did this freak come from?
Many people subconsciously looked at Li Xiaotian. Wasn't this person brought by him? Could it be that these two people were in cahoots with each other?
Many people of the Island nation had already taken small steps and surrounded Li Xiaotian.
Li Xiaotian did not retreat an inch and said indifferently, "You have found the wrong target to deal with me. Your enemy is him. As for his name, I can make it big for you. He is called Tang Zheng. I think you are not too unfamiliar with this name. However, many experts of your country have fallen in his hands."
Li Xiaotian really sold out Tang Zheng completely. Back in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, Tang Zheng had killed many experts of the Island nation. Li Xiaotian knew very well that Li Xiaotian knew the feud between him and the Island nation.
"You are Tang Zheng!"
As expected, the Sky Emperor and the Great Master martial artist cried out in alarm at the same time. It was obvious that they were not unfamiliar with this name.
The Island nation had always paid attention to the collection of information about Hua Xia. How could they not know about this new rising star of Hua Xia?
As for what happened in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, they were not too clear about it. This was because Tang Zheng had done it very cleanly. No one came back to report, so the people of the Island nation did not know that all of this was related to Tang Zheng.
Seeing that his identity had been exposed, Tang Zheng was angry and regretful. He had been possessed and actually believed in Li Xiaotian. Could this woman's words be trusted?
Now you know that you have been tricked. You are in a desperate situation. You are probably going to die.
Seeing Tang Zheng fiercely staring at him, Li Xiaotian met his gaze and charmingly smiled, saying, "Tang Zheng, don't blame me."
Tang Zheng coldly snorted and cursed in his heart, "It would be strange if I don't blame you. I still want to kill you. If you fall into my hands in the future, I will definitely not be merciful. Even if you have a glib tongue, don't think that I will believe you. "
But it was too late to think about all this now. The most important thing was to solve the problem in front of him.
Since that was the case, then Tang Zheng had nothing to hide. The fingers that were grabbing the Sky Emperor's neck tightened. The Sky Emperor gasped for breath and almost suffocated.
