Feng Tianwu remained silent as she looked at Emperor Wu and Zhou Yi. She seemed to be thinking about something.
Emperor Wu and Zhou Yi's expressions changed when they noticed Feng Tianwu's complicated gaze. They were worried that the lady before them was determined to get Chi Huo to kill them.
They did not think Chi Huo would reject her based on his attitude toward her.
"Hand over the stone tablet."
Feng Tianwu looked at Emperor Wu and said in a deep voice.
Stone tablet!
Emperor Wu's expression changed drastically when he heard Feng Tianwu's words.
Naturally, he knew what the 'stone tablet' was. It was none other than the stone tablet the purple-clad young man left behind when he left three days ago.
The stone tablet was mysterious and strange. It gave the purple-clad young man a power that made his heart palpitate.
He had been studying the stone tablet for the past three days but to no avail.
However, he had a strong feeling that he would definitely gain something if he continued to study it.
Although he was sure the stone tablet would make people lose their minds, he could not help but be tempted when he thought about the terrifying power the stone tablet gave the purple-clad young man.
However, the lady before him wanted him to hand over the stone tablet.
He hesitated.
It was impossible not to hand it over.
It was because Chi Huo was here.
However, he was unwilling to hand it over.
Just as Emperor Wu was feeling conflicted, a familiar voice entered his ears through Voice Transmission. "Master, I have a way to help you protect the stone tablet."
Emperor Wu's eyes lit up when he heard the voice.
He could tell that the voice belonged to Zhou Yi, who was standing beside him.
"What is it?"
Emperor Wu asked immediately.
Although he had already made plans for the worst case scenario.
Now that he heard there was a way to protect the stone tablet, his mind was instantly filled with excitement.
"Master, how about this …"
Zhou Yi transmitted his voice to Martial Emperor Shi Qi through Voice Transmission.
"Alright! We'll do as you say. I forgot that you have a highly retentive memory. “
Emperor Wu replied through Voice Transmission. A hint of joy could be seen in his eyes.
"Shi Qi, this girl wants something from you. It means she's planning to kill you in the future … If I were to kill you now, she wouldn't need anything from you at all. Everything will belong to her after you die."
Although Chi Huo did not know what the stone tablet the lady beside him wanted from Emperor Wu was, his expression darkened when he saw Emperor Wu hesitating, and a hint of anger could be heard in his voice.
If it was not because of the relationship between him and Emperor Wu, it would not be convenient for him to kill him personally, he would not have given the lady beside him such a suggestion.
He would have suggested that she would kill Emperor Wu and his master in the future.
Naturally, if Feng Tianwu insisted to kill her to kill him.
This was because in his opinion, Feng Tianwu was far more important than Emperor Wu.
In front of Feng Tianwu, the relationship between him and Emperor Wu was not worth mentioning at all.
"Senior Chi Huo, I've placed the stone tablet in my cultivation place … How about I make a trip there and retrieve it?"
Emperor Wu could hear the anger in Chi Huo's voice. He could not help but shudder.
"Go."
Chi Huo said nonchalantly.
"Yes."
Emperor Wu hurriedly replied and left immediately.
After Emperor Wu left, Zhou Yi glanced at Chi Huo. A hint of awkwardness could be seen between his brows. "Senior Chi Huo, I'll go and have a look as well."
Without waiting for Chi Huo's reply, he hastily left and followed after Emperor Wu.
For a time, only a group of Emperor Wu's disciples, Emperor Wu's followers, and two of Emperor Wu's direct disciples were left at the scene.
"Who is this red-robed old man? Even Master is so respectful to him. This is truly inconceivable. "
This is unbelievable, "one of Emperor Wu's direct disciples muttered.
The other Emperor Wu's direct disciple did not say anything. However, his eyes were filled with fear as he looked at the old man.
As for the group of Emperor Wu's disciples and Emperor Wu's followers, they were stunned.
They did not regain their senses for a long time.
After a long time, although many of them regained their senses, they did not dare to say anything. It was as though they were afraid they would anger the red-robed old man if they said something wrong.
What a joke!
Even their Lost Stone Forest's Emperor Wu had to bow and greet this red-robed old man humbly when he saw him.
Their Lost Stone Forest's Emperor Wu was like a mouse that had seen a cat when he saw him.
"Where are you bringing me?"
Feng Tianwu asked as she looked at Chi Huo.
"A place outside of Cloud Continent. It's a vast world … There's a better cultivation environment there. I'll do my best to give you the best cultivation resources."
Chi Huo said with a burning gaze, "Your innate talent is much more powerful than mine."
As a former possessor of the Fire Spirit Body, it was easy for Chi Huo to sense Feng Tianwu's innate talent. Her innate talent was much more powerful than his.
"You want me to acknowledge you as my master?"
Feng Tianwu asked again.
"That's right."
Chi Huo nodded with a smile before he said, "In my entire life, I've only accepted three direct disciples when I was still on Cloud Continent … Now, there's only one left."
A hint of sadness could be heard in Chi Huo's voice when he reached the end of his sentence.
"Just because I used to possess the Fire Spirit Body?"
Feng Tianwu asked.
"That's right."
Chi Huo nodded before he said solemnly, "Although you've gotten rid of the Fire Spirit Body, your body has been modified to have a body that's close to the fire attribute. As long as you cultivate the fire attribute Cultivation Method, your cultivation will improve by leaps and bounds!"
Chi Huo's eyes were filled with passion when he reached the end of his sentence. He said, "I have a feeling that your future achievements will surpass mine!"
"I can acknowledge you as my master, and I can also leave with you … However, before that, I hope you can promise me one thing."
Feng Tianwu said.
"Tell me."
The more Chi Huo looked at Feng Tianwu, the more satisfied he was with her. Even if Feng Tianwu had a request, he would agree to it without hesitation.
While Chi Huo and Feng Tianwu were talking, Shi Qi and Zhou Yi were standing opposite each other in a stone house that was excavated from a gigantic rock in the Shi Qi Emperor Wu's cultivation place.
"Zhou Yi, hurry up and memorize the words and veins on this stone tablet … I'll go look for a stone that looks similar to this stone tablet. When the time comes, you can forge an identical stone tablet. I'll pass it to Senior Chi Huo."
Chi Huo raised his hand and handed a stone tablet with a chipped corner to Zhou Yi.
Then, he disappeared into thin air again.
He and Zhou Yi planned to forge an identical stone tablet and pass it to Feng Tianwu who had Chi Huo as her backer.
Although it was easy to forge an exact copy of the stele, it would still take a long time to do so.
After all, it was just a look. It would take a lot of verification.
However, Chi Huo did not have that much time now.
However, Zhou Yi was born with a photographic memory. As long as he looked at something carefully, it would be as though it was engraved in his mind.
Therefore, as long as he memorized the words and veins on the stone tablet, it would only take him a moment to forge an identical stone tablet.
Zhou Yi was the one who came up with the idea of swapping the stone tablet.
Naturally, Zhou Yi did not come up with this idea for his master, Shi Qi Emperor Wu. It was for himself.
"Master, I'm sorry … I want this stone tablet as well."
Zhou Yi looked at the stone tablet in his hand. His eyes were as bright as the stars.
Then, he raised his hand, and another stone tablet appeared in his other hand. At first glance, it was identical to the stone tablet in his hand, whether it was the size, the words, or the veins.
Even the missing corner was exactly the same.
"I originally planned to wait for the best opportunity to swap the stone tablet, but I didn't expect even God to help me … This stone tablet left behind by Duan Lingtian belongs to me, Zhou Yi, from today onwards."
Zhou Yi's hand shook as he put away the stone tablet that was given to him by Shi Qi Emperor Wu.
As for the other stone tablet that he had forged long ago, he held it in his hand and looked at it as if it was real.
At this moment, Martial Emperor Shi Qi who went out to look for the stone did not expect his direct disciple had already memorized all the features of the stone tablet three days ago with his photographic memory.
Not only that, but he also spent a lot of effort to find a suitable stone and forge it into a stone tablet that was exactly the same as the stone tablet.
A fake Devilseal Tablet.
Whoosh!
After a few breaths, Emperor Wu returned with a huge stone in his hand. "Zhou Yi, if you can pass off the fake as the real thing this time … Master will definitely treat you well."
"Thank you, Master."
Zhou Yi took the stone and hurriedly responded. However, his heart was filled with disdain.
So what if he did not treat him badly?
He was still unwilling to give the stone tablet to him.
Fortunately, he had obtained the stone tablet using his own method.
After taking the stone, Zhou Yi raised his hand and a saber appeared in his hand.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
The saber rose and fell. In just a dozen breaths, a stone tablet that was identical to the Devilseal Tablet appeared in his hand.
"Master, what do you think?"
Zhou Yi asked with a smile as he passed the two fake Devilseal Tablets in his hand to Emperor Wu.
Emperor Wu did not know that the real Devilseal Tablet had been swapped. After comparing the two Devilseal Tablets, his eyes lit up immediately. "They're exactly the same … They're exactly the same!"
"If I didn't know this stone tablet was real, even I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the real and the fake."
Emperor Wu sighed as he looked at the fake Devilseal Tablet that had been swapped by Zhou Yi and the fake Devilseal Tablet that Zhou Yi had just forged.
"Master, quickly pass this fake stone tablet to that woman … I won't be going with you. I'm going to go into closed-door cultivation from now on to raise my cultivation base so I can share your burden. "
