The people from Lei Yun Peak stayed in a forest on the east side of the southern island of the Hidden Fog Island. They stayed in a spacious mansion that stood in the forest.
The people from the Hidden Fog Island had arranged for them to stay in this mansion.
Not far from the west side of the mansion, a figure stood in the air. He was looking in the direction of the mansion through the forest.
"Zhou Yi!"
This person was none other than Duan Lingtian who had just rushed over.
Duan Lingtian only had one purpose in coming here, and that was to kill Zhou Yi and take the Devilseal Tablet back from him.
The Devilseal Tablet belonged to him in the first place.
If he had not lost his mind and lost the Devilseal Tablet in the Lost Stone Forest, the Devilseal Tablet would still be in his hands now.
Now, he only wanted to take back what belonged to him.
He did not have a good impression of Zhou Yi.
If Zhou Yi had not taken Tian Wu away, he would not have gone to the Lost Stone Forest.
If he had not gone to the Lost Stone Forest, he would not have used the Devilseal Tablet by force. The side effect of using the Devilseal Tablet for the third time almost cost him his life.
He still had lingering fears when he thought about it.
However, Duan Lingtian waited for a long time, but Zhou Yi did not seem to have any intention of leaving.
"Thunder Emperor Wu's ability is not inferior to Frosty Emperor Wu … Although I've made a breakthrough to the Second Level Emperor Wu Stage, I don't have the confidence to fight him."
Duan Lingtian knew this very well.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to wait here for the rabbit to appear.
If he had the confidence to defeat Thunder Emperor Wu, he would have barged into the mansion in front of him and killed Zhou Yi to take back the Devilseal Tablet that belonged to him.
"Huh?"
After a while, Duan Lingtian noticed someone coming out of the mansion in front of him. When he saw the person, his eyes that lit up suddenly dimmed again.
This was because this person was not Zhou Yi. Instead, he was one of the nine Martial Emperor's disciples that Martial Emperor Lei Ming brought along.
Seeing that the person who came out was about to leave, Duan Lingtian had an idea. "Waiting for Zhou Yi like this isn't a good idea after all … I'll start with him."
Seeing the Thundercloud Peak disciple leave, Duan Lingtian quietly followed.
Soon, he stopped the Thundercloud Peak disciples.
"Duan Lingtian? What do you want? "
When the Thundercloud Peak's disciple saw Duan Lingtian, he had a vigilant expression on his face. He was afraid of this purple-clad young man who had won first place in the Hidden Fog Martial Competition three days ago.
"I just want to make a deal with you."
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed as he spoke to the Thundercloud Peak disciples.
"What business?"
The Thundercloud Peak disciple asked.
"Help me lure Zhou Yi out … Once it's done, I'll give you two thousand supreme-grade primal stones. What do you think? "
Duan Lingtian said.
Two thousand supreme-grade primal stones!
When the Thundercloud Peak's disciple heard this, his breathing quickened.
He was only an ordinary disciple under Emperor Wu's command. He was not Emperor Wu's direct disciple. To him, two thousand supreme-grade Primal Stones was a huge fortune.
Soon after, the Thundercloud Peak's disciple's breathing stabilized as he said, "Zhou Yi is Emperor Wu's direct disciple. If I harm him, Emperor Wu won't let me off …"
"Three thousand supreme-grade Primal Stones!"
Duan Lingtian interrupted him. "As long as you can lure him out without alerting anyone, I'll kill him to prevent any future trouble!"
"At that time, the dead can't testify. Who would know that you lured him out for me to kill?"
Duan Lingtian continued.
"Alright!"
When the Thundercloud Peak's disciple heard Duan Lingtian's promise of three thousand supreme-grade Primal Stones, he could no longer suppress the greed in his heart and agreed decisively.
Zhou Yi had always been the target of his jealousy.
Now that he had the chance to trick him, it was beneficial to him. There was no harm in doing so.
"Here are one thousand supreme-grade Primal Stones … Consider it a deposit. I'll give you the other two thousand supreme-grade Primal Stones after this is done. Let me remind you, don't try to play any tricks. Otherwise, I'll kill you on the spot even if you have Emperor Wu's protection. "
Duan Lingtian threatened when he reached the end of his sentence, "I'm sure you've seen how much the Hidden Fog Island values me three days ago … In order to protect me, the First Island Master of the Hidden Fog Island, Emperor Wu, who's at the peak of the Hidden Fog Island, even personally came."
"M-The peak of the Emperor Wu Stage? “
The Thundercloud Peak's disciple's eyes narrowed. He was shocked by Duan Lingtian's words.
Three days ago, although he could see that the First Island Master of the Hidden Fog Island's ability was not simple, he did not expect him to be at the peak of the Emperor Wu Stage.
If such a powerhouse wanted to, he could kill their Thundercloud Peak's Thunder Emperor Wu in just a blink of an eye.
"Go."
Duan Lingtian said again.
After the Thundercloud Peak's disciple took the Spatial Ring that contained the one thousand supreme-grade Primal Stones, he turned around and returned to the mansion where the people from Thundercloud Peak were staying.
As for Duan Lingtian, he followed far behind and hid at the side of the mansion.
"I hope he can really lure Zhou Yi out."
Duan Lingtian muttered to himself as he hid behind the forest and looked in the direction of the mansion from afar.
Soon after, Duan Lingtian saw the Thundercloud Peak's disciple appear. There was another person who appeared with him.
Just by looking at the back, he could tell it was Zhou Yi.
After the two of them appeared, they left the mansion and headed north.
After confirming that there was no one following them, Duan Lingtian made his move and followed them from afar. Soon after, he stopped them in a forest far away from the mansion.
"Zhou Yi."
After appearing, Duan Lingtian looked at Zhou Yi calmly. His eyes were cold and emotionless.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Horror dawned on Zhou Yi's face. He did not expect to be so unlucky to encounter Duan Lingtian as soon as he stepped out of the door.
Whoosh!
At this moment, he noticed that Duan Lingtian shot a ray of light at him with just a raise of his hand.
Origin Energy and Profundity rose from his body as he tried to block it.
However, he was soon stunned.
This was because he noticed that the Thundercloud Peak's disciple next to him had raised his hand to block the ray of light shot out by Duan Lingtian before flying away and disappearing before his eyes in just a blink of an eye.
When the ray of light approached him, he realized it was a Spatial Ring.
At this moment, he realized he had been deceived. "Damn it! I can't believe I didn't guard against him. "
Now, he could roughly guess what was going on.
The Thundercloud Peak's disciple must have bribed Duan Lingtian and helped Duan Lingtian lure him out.
When Zhou Yi recalled the powerful strength that Duan Ling Tian had displayed three days ago, he felt a chill run up his spine from the bottom of his feet to the top of his head.
"Duan Lingtian, it was my fault for what happened back then … However, it was Emperor Wu who asked me to capture Miss Tian Wu and bring her to Lost Stone Forest."
After taking a deep breath, Zhou Yi looked at Duan Lingtian and pushed all the blame to Emperor Wu.
"Three days ago, before the Hidden Fog Martial Competition began, I met Emperor Wu once … He's not as powerful as I am, and his life is hanging by a thread. In order to survive, he told me everything."
Duan Lingtian glanced at Zhou Yi indifferently and said slowly, "Including why you betrayed Lost Stone Forest!"
Horror dawned on Zhou Yi when he heard Duan Lingtian's words.
Run!
Without any hesitation, Zhou Yi turned around and fled.
What a joke!
Since Duan Lingtian already knew everything, then the purpose of Duan Lingtian's visit was not as simple as taking revenge on him for kidnapping Feng Tianwu. He was here for the mysterious stone tablet.
If he stayed, not only would the mysterious stone tablet be taken away, but he would also be killed.
However, would he be able to escape?
In just a blink of an eye, Duan Lingtian appeared in Zhou Yi's path again and blocked his way.
"Duan Lingtian, I can give you the thing that you want …" Zhou Yi's expression changed drastically.
Zhou Yi's expression changed again. He realized it was impossible for him to escape under Duan Ling Tian's nose. He immediately wanted to take out the Devilseal Tablet and beg Duan Ling Tian to spare his life.
However, Duan Lingtian had no intention of letting him finish. He interrupted him, "There's no need for you to say anything else … You'll definitely die today!"
The moment his words left his mouth, Duan Lingtian's body moved. It was as though he had transformed into a five-colored divine dragon. He opened his bloody mouth and charged at Zhou Yi as though he was going to swallow him whole.
"No!"
Zhou Yi's face was filled with despair as he let out a cry.
Boom!
Just as Zhou Yi cried out in alarm, he heard a loud bang.
Immediately after, a vast, rolling shockwave landed on his body and sent him flying.
Zhou Yi thought he would definitely die. The outcome would be the same whether he defended or not. Therefore, he did not deliberately defend himself against Duan Lingtian's attack.
Because of this, he was blasted far away.
"I'm still alive … I'm still alive!"
Zhou Yi spat out a mouthful of blood as he ignored the intense pain from the impact of the shockwave. His face was filled with ecstasy.
After his ecstasy, he gradually calmed down. "Logically speaking, with Duan Lingtian's strength, he should be able to blast me into pieces with just one blow … But …"
When Zhou Yi came to a halt and looked into the distance, he saw a figure standing in front of Duan Ling Tian, blocking his path.
Although the figure was a little blurry due to the distance, he could still recognize the silhouette of Martial Emperor Lei Ming's back with just a glance. "I hope he can kill Duan Ling Tian … Otherwise, Duan Ling Tian will still be a huge threat to me if he's alive!"
Zhou Yi thought to himself.
However, Zhou Yi did not go over. He merely watched from afar.
"This Duan Lingtian shouldn't be hiding his strength, right?"
An ominous feeling rose in his heart when he recalled how Duan Lingtian had displayed his strength step by step three days ago and how he had shocked him time and time again. "No! I can't stay … Who knows if this Duan Lingtian is still hiding his strength? "
"If he's really hiding his strength, and his true strength is enough to kill Thunder Emperor Wu … Then, won't I be dead for sure?"
"Run! I must run! "
"Just in case, I must run!"
When Zhou Yi thought of this, he no longer hesitated and turned to flee.
However, he had forgotten one thing.
