Dugu Wen, the Hundred Transformations Celestial Emperor.
Dugu Wu, the Indestructible Celestial Emperor.
Both of them were famous in the Boundless Heaven's Boundless Territory. In fact, they were even more famous than many titled Celestial Emperors who were stronger than them.
They were famous not because of their strength, but because both of them were titled Celestial Emperors. Moreover, both of them were assassins. Moreover, both of them worked together.
Many titled Celestial Emperors in the Boundless Heaven had died in their hands. Due to this, they had become even more famous.
Now that both of them had appeared in the Boundless Heaven's Boundless Heaven's Boundless Heaven's Boundless Heaven, Hu Mei, and Wen Wan 'er knew what this meant.
Based on Duan Lingtian's actions, it was obvious the target of the two assassins was none other than Duan Lingtian!
"Two titled Celestial Emperors?"
Through Hu Mei and Wen Wan 'er's Voice Transmissions, Duan Ling Tian learned who the two people in front of him were. At the same time, he also learned that they were targeting him.
'The assassins are here to kill me?
I don't think I've offended many people in the Boundless Heaven, right? '
At this moment, many thoughts flashed in Duan Ling Tian's mind. One could easily imagine the price he would have to pay to bribe two titled Celestial Emperors.
"Did you offend someone?"
Hu Mei asked through Voice Transmission.
"Third Senior Sister."
Duan Lingtian replied through Voice Transmission, "In fact, before we came to the Heavenly Pool Palace, we weren't from the Boundless Heaven. In other words, apart from the people in the Heavenly Pool Palace, I haven't come into contact with anyone else.
The only people I've offended are the prodigious disciples in the Heavenly Pool Palace.
If someone wants to kill me, it should be them. However, I don't think it's that easy to bribe two titled Celestial Emperors to kill me, right? Perhaps, Han Yun Jin is the only one who's capable of bribing them to kill me. "
Duan Lingtian speculated.
"Han Yun Jin?"
Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian's Voice Transmission, Hu Mei did not reply. "Little Junior Brother, you think too highly of Han Yun Jin. Or should I say, you think too little of the price Dugu Wen and Dugu Wu have to pay?"
"Even if Han Yun Jin were to go bankrupt, he'd only be able to pay half of what the two of them are willing to kill you. Two Han Yun Jin might be able to pay the price, but one Han Yun Jin isn't capable of that."
It was clear Hu Mei had a good understanding of the two assassins. "In the Heavenly Pool Palace, apart from the nine titled Celestial Emperors, there are only a handful of people in the Heavenly Pool Palace who are capable of bribing two assassins to kill you.
"Furthermore, none of those people have anything to do with you."
Hu Mei continued to say, "As for the titled Celestial Emperors in the Heavenly Pool Palace, even the Martial Dragon Celestial Emperor and the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor whose disciples you killed won't be able to bribe them to kill you.
With their strength, it won't be difficult for them to kill you. At most, they'll be forced to leave the Heavenly Pool Palace because of the conflict between them and their teacher.
With their strength, they can easily join other heaven-grade forces even if they leave the Heavenly Pool Palace and enjoy the resources of the heaven-grade forces. "
Upon hearing Hu Mei's words, Duan Lingtian was puzzled. Who else could it be if it was not Han Yun Jin?
In the end, Duan Lingtian felt it was most likely Han Yun Jin was the culprit.
At this moment, the young man in his early teens, the Hundred Variants Celestial Emperor, glanced at Xu Lang indifferently and said, "Xu Lang, our target this time is your seventh disciple, Duan Lingtian.
If you hand him over to us, we'll be fine. However, if you're unwilling to hand him over, we'll have no choice but to see how strong the Verdant Prairie Celestial Emperor is. "
As Dugu Wen reached the end of his sentence, the cold light in his eyes grew even colder. At the same time, there was a strong sense of threat in his eyes.
Swoosh!
As soon as Dugu Wen's words left his mouth, Duan Ling Tian's figure flashed and seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Dugu Wen's eyes flashed coldly as he shot toward Duan Lingtian. In just a blink of an eye, he disappeared from where he was standing and chased after Duan Lingtian.
When Dugu Wen confirmed Duan Lingtian's identity, he had already used his Divine Consciousness to lock on to Duan Lingtian.
As for Dugu Wu, he remained where he was, glaring at Xu Lang fiercely. It was as though he would attack if Xu Lang dared to chase after Duan Lingtian.
"Let's return."
Xu Lang glanced at Dugu Wu indifferently before he led the trio back to the Heavenly Pool Palace. From the beginning until the end, he did not seem to have any intention of helping Duan Lingtian.
It was not that he did not want to help Duan Lingtian, but he had no other choice.
Based on the rumors, Duan Lingtian was not any weaker than him. Although he could send a message to the Heavenly Pool Palace's titled Celestial Emperors before Duan Lingtian gained the upper hand, it was highly likely that Duan Lingtian would have died by then.
Dugu Wu followed Xu Lang and the others for about half a day before he finally decided to leave.
Since Xu Lang did not chase after Duan Lingtian, he did not plan to make a move as well. After all, if he made a move, he would be in a stalemate with Xu Lang for some time.
Now that half a day had passed, he was no longer worried that Xu Lang would interfere with Duan Lingtian's matter. For this reason, he decided to leave.
"Trying to leave?"
However, just as Dugu Wu was about to leave, Xu Lang made his move. A resplendent sword light whistled through the air, following Dugu Wu like a shadow.
"Xu Lang, how dare you attack me?"
Dugu Wu sneered. "It'll take at least a day for the other titled Celestial Emperors of the Heavenly Pool Palace to arrive. Do you think you'll be able to withstand my attacks for a while?"
Dugu Wu was an old man with white hair that draped over his shoulders. His clothes were slightly sloppy, but he emitted a murderous aura.
"I've long heard of the Indestructible Celestial Emperor's name. Since I've met you today, I'd like to see how strong you are."
A cold light flashed in Xu Lang's eyes. He raised his hand and a three-foot-long green sword whizzed out. He and the sword merged into one and charged towards Dugu Wu with unparalleled sharpness.
"Humph!"
Dugu Wu snorted coldly as he charged forward.
Meanwhile, Huan 'er, Hu Mei, and Wen Wan' er watched the battle from afar.
Dugu Wu might be slightly stronger than Xu Lang, but it was impossible for him to gain the upper hand in such a short time. After all, both of them were titled Celestial Emperors.
Moreover, Xu Lang was not the weakest among titled Celestial Emperors.
For this reason, they were not worried that Dugu Wu would attack them. After all, Dugu Wu was too busy to make a move.
If Dugu Wu attacked them, he would definitely be at a disadvantage in the battle against Xu Lang.
About two hours later …
Buzz!
The ear-piercing sound of a saber rang in the air.
A sharp saber light descended from the clouds, charging at Dugu Wu with a ferocious momentum.
Dugu Wu was caught off guard by the sudden saber ray. Since he was fighting Xu Lang, he felt slightly powerless even though he had noticed the saber ray.
"Xu Lang, you tricked me!"
Dugu Wu let out a furious roar. Then, his body suddenly swayed. Just at that moment, the blade ray that descended from the sky chopped off one of his arms.
However, Dugu Wu quickly caught the severed arm with his other hand. After that, he circulated his Celestial Origin Energy to heal the wound on his severed arm.
What Dugu Wu comprehended was the Law of Wood, which was full of vitality. His body was also a Tenacious Sky Bamboo that had taken human form. Losing an arm was just a minor injury to him.
In just a blink of an eye, the wound on Dugu Wu's severed arm had healed.
Swoosh!
Behind the blade glow, a figure stepped down from the clouds and appeared beside Xu Lang.
It was none other than Zheng Yu Yi, the Copper Mountain Celestial Emperor, who had left earlier.
"Who are you?"
Dugu Wu looked at Zheng Yu Yi with a dark expression. He did not expect Xu Lang would have a helper who was also a titled Celestial Emperor in just half a day.
"Where's Duan Lingtian?"
At this moment, a figure appeared in the sky and walked toward Huan 'er, Hu Mei, and Wen Wan' er. It was none other than Zheng Yu Yi's disciple, Nan Liufeng.
"Little Junior Brother has lured Dugu Wen away."
Hu Mei said in a deep voice.
Although Duan Lingtian had informed them before he left, she could not help but feel worried when she thought about how Dugu Wen was a titled Celestial Emperor while her Little Junior Brother was only a titled Celestial Lord.
At this moment, a hint of worry could be seen in Huan 'er's eyes.
Usually, Huan 'er would not worry about Duan Lingtian since she was very confident in Duan Lingtian's strength. However, things were different today.
Dugu Wen was a titled Celestial Emperor. He was not someone her Brother Ling Tian's opponents could compare to.
"Dugu Wen? The Hundred Transformations Celestial Emperor?
Does this mean the old man is Dugu Wu, the Indestructible Celestial Emperor? "
Nan Liufeng looked at the old man standing opposite his teacher and Xu Lang, the Verdant Prairie Celestial Emperor, in shock when he heard Hu Mei's words.
Nan Liufeng was brought here by his teacher. He only said he would help Xu Lang, but he did not mention who his opponent was.
Now that Hu Mei had spoken, Nan Liufeng finally knew who his teacher and Xu Lang were facing.
"Who did Duan Lingtian offend? He actually hired these two murderous gods to kill him. "
Nan Liufeng could not help but click his tongue. Dugu Wen and Dugu Wu were so famous that even he had heard about them. Apart from that, he also knew that the price they charged was extremely high.
Moreover, Celestial Crystals were not enough to tempt them.
If one wanted them to help, they would have to offer something that could move them. Celestial Crystals would only take up a portion of the price, but most of it had to be other precious items that were priceless.
"Zheng Yu Yi."
On the other side, Zheng Yuyi answered Dugu Wu's question calmly.
"Copper Mountain Celestial Emperor?"
Dugu Wu frowned before he asked in a deep voice, "Why are you here?"
Zheng Yu Yi, the Copper Mountain Celestial Emperor, and Xu Lang, the Verdant Prairie Celestial Emperor, were close.
As an assassin, he was very familiar with the relationships between titled Celestial Emperors in the Boundless Heaven.
