Apart from the group of Thundercloud Peak disciples, even the master of Thundercloud Peak, Thunder Emperor Wu, was looking at Zhou Yi as though he wanted to confirm if Emperor Wu Shi Qi was telling the truth.
His instincts told him that everything that Emperor Wu Shi Qi said might be true.
"What? You don't dare to admit that you betrayed the Lost Stone Forest? "
When Emperor Wu saw that Zhou Yi seemed to be ignoring him, he smirked.
At the same time, he looked at Thunder Emperor Wu and said with a solemn expression, "Thunder Emperor Wu, although I don't know why a traitor from the Lost Stone Forest would come to your Thundercloud Peak, I still have to remind you.
Zhou Yi is not worthy of your trust nor is he worthy of your protection! If he can betray the Lost Stone Forest, he can betray your Thundercloud Peak as well. "
At this moment, Emperor Wu was almost certain.
Zhou Yi had become a Thundercloud Peak disciple and was protected by Thunder Emperor Wu.
He knew very well.
Thunder Emperor Wu's ability was not something he could compare to.
If he wanted to punish the traitor Zhou Yi under Thunder Emperor Wu's nose and take back the mysterious stone tablet that Zhou Yi had secretly swapped, he could only use his wits and not his strength.
"Betrayed the Lost Stone Forest?"
The moment Emperor Wu's words left his mouth, before Thunder Emperor Wu could respond, Zhou Yi had already made his move.
He lifted his head slowly and glanced at Emperor Wu nonchalantly before he said, "I admit that I was once Emperor Wu's direct disciple … However, I left the Lost Stone Forest. Are you sure it's because I betrayed you and not because you can't tolerate me?"
"I can't tolerate you?"
Emperor Wu, who was stunned by Zhou Yi's words, snapped back to his senses and sneered.
However, when Martial Emperor Shi Qi opened his mouth and was about to say something, he abruptly shut his mouth in an obedient manner.
The cold smile on his face completely froze at this moment.
All of this was because a voice transmission had sounded out by his ear.
"Shi Qi, if you dare to call me a traitor of Lost Stone Forest again, I'll hand that stone tablet over to Emperor Wu … At that time, it'll be even more difficult for you to take the stone tablet back!"
The Voice Transmission that entered Emperor Wu's ears came from Zhou Yi.
Threats!
It was a blatant threat!
With just a few words, Zhou Yi had completely shut up Emperor Wu's mouth.
As the saying goes, 'Hit the snake where it hurts'. What Zhou Yi was doing now was no different from that.
Naturally, the reason why Zhou Yi's threat was so effective was because Emperor Wu still had not given up on the stone tablet that he had secretly replaced.
He knew that Emperor Wu's greatest goal wasn't to punish him, the traitor, but the stone stele.
Compared to the stone tablet, a traitor like him was not worth mentioning.
"You … You unfilial disciple!"
Upon hearing Zhou Yi's threat, Emperor Wu was so angry that he felt like he was about to explode. However, he only dared to scold Zhou Yi through Voice Transmission.
He was really worried that Zhou Yi would hand the stone tablet over to Emperor Wu of Thunder.
If the stone tablet was in Zhou Yi's hands, there was still hope for him to snatch it back.
However, if it was in the hands of Emperor Wu of Thunder, there was almost no hope for him to snatch it back.
After weighing the pros and cons, he naturally hoped that the stone tablet would remain in Zhou Yi's hands instead of the Thunder Emperor Wu's.
As for whether the stone tablet was still in Zhou Yi's hands, he did not doubt it at all.
With Zhou Yi's greed, it was impossible for him to hand the stone tablet over to someone else unless he was facing a life and death crisis.
"Why? Can't say anything? Are you in the wrong? "
Zhou Yi said with a mocking smile when he saw Martial Emperor Shi Qi who was rendered speechless by Zhou Yi's words.
"Zhou Yi, what's going on?"
At this moment, Emperor Wu of Thunder finally spoke. His voice was solemn, and there was no emotion in it at all.
"Master, it's true that I was a disciple of Lost Stone Forest in the past. Moreover, I was Emperor Wu's direct disciple … However, I left Lost Stone Forest after my sister was raped and killed by him."
Zhou Yi gritted his teeth as he spoke to Emperor Wu of Thunder.
"Emperor Wu of Thunder framed me as a traitor of Lost Stone Forest in order to get rid of the root of the problem!"
When Zhou Yi reached the end of his sentence, tears began to roll down his face that was filled with grief and indignation.
Whoosh!
The moment Zhou Yi's words left his mouth, the entire place was in an uproar.
Almost everyone, including the Lost Stone Forest's disciples, shifted their attention to Martial Emperor Shi Qi in unison.
There were looks of disdain, mockery, and anger.
Although some of the disciples of Lost Stone Forest had heard about Zhou Yi's betrayal of Lost Stone Forest, they did not know the reason behind it.
To them, it was a mystery that was difficult to solve.
However, the mystery seemed to have been revealed today.
"Emperor Wu of Cloud Continent is a famous Emperor Wu powerhouse after all. I can't believe he's capable of doing such a thing … How infuriating!"
"That's right. He even killed the family of his direct disciple. Is there anything he won't do? "
"Back then, I thought about joining Lost Stone Forest and becoming Emperor Wu's disciple … Now that I think about it, it's fortunate that I made a different choice back then."
"Compared to Zhou Yi, your choice is the right one."
…
Whether it was the people from Hidden Fog Island or the group of Emperor Wu's disciples from Cloud Continent, all of them looked at Emperor Wu of disdain as they whispered among themselves.
Their gazes were filled with disdain.
At this moment, even the ten Lost Stone Forest's disciples behind Emperor Wu felt ashamed and resentful.
If they were not worried that Emperor Wu would attack them, they would have run as far away as they could from Emperor Wu and acted as if they did not know him.
Led by Lan Bi, many of the Thundercloud Peak's disciples looked at Emperor Wu angrily as they sympathized with Zhou Yi.
Martial Emperor Shi Qi's expression was extremely unsightly.
Never had he imagined that Zhou Yi would accuse him in such a way and frame him. It caused him to feel a wave of grievance, and he wished for nothing more than to tell the entire sequence of events so that the truth would be revealed to the world.
However, could he do that?
Once he did that, it would undoubtedly force Zhou Yi into a corner, and the mysterious stone tablet would most likely fall into the hands of Martial Emperor Lei Ming.
That was not the ending he wanted.
Emperor Wu did not refute Zhou Yi's accusation and the crowd's mockery.
At this moment, the crowd believed Zhou Yi's words even more.
"Hurmph!"
At this moment, a cold snort that sounded like an explosion resonated in the air. It was so loud that it hurt everyone's eardrums.
Just when the crowd snapped back to their senses and looked in the direction of the sound to see who had snorted …
Bang!
A loud bang resonated in the air, followed by a vast shockwave that swept out and attracted everyone's attention.
Subsequently, most of them noticed that Emperor Wu had disappeared.
Only a few people with a higher cultivation base could clearly see that Emperor Wu did not disappear. Instead, he was sent flying by a powerful force and was severely injured.
These people were also the first to react as they looked at Martial Emperor Lei Ming.
Somehow, Martial Emperor Lei Ming was already standing in front of Zhou Yi.
He was the one who had attacked earlier.
He had always been satisfied with Zhou Yi as his direct disciple.
However, today, someone had framed Zhou Yi, causing him to doubt Zhou Yi's character. At this moment, he was filled with rage. In his rage, he immediately attacked Emperor Wu.
"Emperor Wu, I don't want to see you again … If you dare to appear before me in the span of three breaths, I'll definitely kill you!"
Just when most of the people regained their senses and shifted their gazes to Martial Emperor Lei Ming, Martial Emperor Lei Ming spoke at a speed that was neither fast nor slow. His tone was firm and filled with a terrifying ruthlessness.
At this moment, Emperor Wu who had just consumed the Healing Pill had a drastic change of expression. He did not wait for his injuries to heal before he quickly fled.
His speed was even faster than lightning.
He did not look like someone who had just been injured.
At this moment, the vast sea regained its calm.
The group of Emperor Wu's disciples from Lost Stone Forest looked at each other. They did not know if they should leave or not. They were stuck in a dilemma.
On the other side.
Today was the day of the Hidden Fog Martial Competition held by the Hidden Fog Island. Since Duan Lingtian was fully immersed in comprehending the Saint Grade Martial Tactic, Colossal Aerolite Arrow, he had yet to regain his senses.
For this reason, the group of people from Ling Xuan Peak departed a little later to wait for him.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
The group of people from Ling Xuan Peak was led by Emperor Wu, Yang Hui.
Duan Lingtian brought the two girls and walked side by side with Yang Hui. They attracted a lot of attention along the way.
Of course, most of his attention was attracted by the two little girls.
"Brother Ling Tian, the Hidden Fog Island has invested a lot in the Hidden Fog Martial Competition this time. The person who obtains the first place in the Hidden Fog Martial Competition will receive ten Saint Stones! "
Yang Hui told Duan Lingtian along the way.
"Ten Saint Stones?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up right away.
He was interested in the Hidden Fog Martial Competition on the Hidden Fog Island because he was interested in the Saint Stones. The Saint Stones could help him elevate his cultivation base.
Now that his cultivation base had entered the Emperor Wu Stage and the medicinal efficacy of the Rebirth Pill had been depleted, it was difficult for him to cultivate even though his innate talent had already reached the pinnacle of Cloud Continent.
However, everything would be different with the Saint Stones.
His cultivation base would increase rapidly, and he would advance by leaps and bounds.
Soon after, Duan Lingtian and the group entered the ocean and headed to the north of the Hidden Fog Island.
That was where the Hidden Fog Martial Competition was held. It was also their destination.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed as though he had noticed something.
In the distance, a silhouette was dashing toward them at an extremely fast speed. It was getting closer and closer.
When the person got closer, Duan Lingtian's face turned grave.
"Emperor Wu, Shi Qi!"
