Buddha's sudden death surprised Shenlang and the others. They were just about to go down the mountain to look for Buddha and Sakra to ask if they had seen the person who kidnapped Yan Ruyu. They didn't expect Buddha to die so suddenly.
They could sense from the Heavenly Mountain that the battle between the Buddha and the enemy was very short. This was because the battle between the Ancestor realm experts would draw upon the power of heaven and earth. As long as one comprehended the power of heaven and earth, they would be able to sense the battle between the Ancestor realm experts. Therefore, Shen Lang felt that the battle was over in an instant.
"Who is it? How could he kill Buddha in the blink of an eye? "
This thought flashed through Shenlang's mind.
Sword Emperor took a step forward and appeared beside Buddha's corpse. He carefully examined it and then observed the surroundings of the battle between Buddha and the enemy.
"The person who attacked should have used a sneak attack. In addition, the strength of the person who attacked Buddha is much higher than Buddha. That's why he was able to kill Buddha in one strike when he wasn't on guard."
Sword Emperor was at the peak of the strongest experts. His words were the most authoritative. Shenlang nodded slightly. If it was a head-on battle, with Buddha's strength, even if he wasn't a match for the enemy, he shouldn't have been killed in such a short time. Therefore, the enemy could only have used a sneak attack. However, there was another problem that Shenlang didn't understand. As an Ancestor expert, Buddha must have stepped on blood and slaughter to reach his current realm. He shouldn't have been careless. How could he be so easily ambushed by the enemy?
However, Shenlang wasn't at the scene. He didn't know what had happened. He turned his head and asked the abbot of Fahua Temple, "Buddha should be staying in your Fahua Temple, right?"
The abbot of Fahua Temple didn't dare to hesitate. He quickly nodded and responded to Shenlang.
The God Emperor was someone who had destroyed several major forces. Even if his Fahua Temple had a long history and had many trump cards, he wouldn't dare to anger Shenlang. Therefore, he had to answer Shenlang's question.
"Why is Buddha here?"
Buddha did not know anyone on the Gods' Continent, so it was impossible for him to walk out of Fahua Temple for no reason. This meant that Buddha must have come here for a reason.
The abbot of Fahua Temple quickly took out a piece of paper and handed it to Shenlang respectfully.
"Reporting to the Emperor God, Sorcerer Shakya received a letter this morning. After reading the letter, he left. Sorcerer Shakya is an Immortal. If he wants to leave, it's not my place to ask. Therefore, I don't know why Sorcerer Shakya is here."
Shenlang took the letter and read it carefully. When Shenlang saw the signature at the end of the letter, his eyes narrowed slightly. The signature was actually Di Yongxin.
"It's him?"
Shenlang murmured.
Taihuang, One Page Book, and the Sword Emperor saw the letter as well. The contents of the letter were very simple. It only mentioned that Di Yongxin had invited the Buddha out for a chat. As for the location, it was in a nearby valley.
"Let's go and take a look."
Shenlang crushed the letter and flew towards the valley where Di Yongxin and the Buddha had agreed to meet.
When he arrived above the valley, Shenlang frowned slightly. He scanned the entire valley with his Primordial Spirit and did not find anyone. Di Yongxin was not in the valley at all.
"Emperor, could it be that Di Yongxin had sneak-attacked the Buddha?"
Taihuang saw that there was no one in the valley and could not help but ask curiously.
One Page Book added, "It's possible. This would explain why the Buddha was unprepared for a sneak-attack. Perhaps the Buddha felt that Di Yongxin was not a threat to him, so he was careless. That was why he was sneak-attacked."
Just as Taihuang and One Page Book were discussing, the Sword Emperor made a sound of surprise.
"Hmm?"
Shenlang also noticed that something was different. Then, he landed with the Sword Emperor and came to the valley.
The Sword Emperor picked up a jade-like stone and started to ponder with a frown.
"This should be the foundation stone for the formation. Seems like something has happened in this valley."
The Sword Emperor guessed.
"Emperor, there are bloodstains here."
Taihuang found a pool of bloodstains in a hidden place. The bloodstains were not completely dry, and should have been left here not too long ago.
That pool of bloodstains was still emitting a divine glow. One look and one could tell that it was the blood of an expert.
"There should have been a great battle here not too long ago. However, it is covered by the formation, and the aura is not leaking out. As for the Buddha, the battle should have just ended, and that person had not left yet. Hence, the enemy brought him along."
Shenlang deduced.
"Who is the murderer? To think that he has such strength to kill two supreme experts consecutively and leave without leaving a trace! "
One Page Book could not help but put on a solemn expression when she heard Shenlang's deduction.
The formation stone in the Sword Emperor's palm turned into a pile of powder and was blown into the sky by the breeze. "Seems like someone from the outside world has come to this mainland."
When Shen Lang heard the Sword Emperor's words, his heart jolted as he woke up from his daze. Even though there were many experts in the Gods Continent, there was absolutely no expert who could kill Di Yongxin and the Buddha consecutively. Only an expert from the outside world could have such a possibility.
The Sword Emperor glanced at Shen Lang and warned, "If it's someone from the outside world, then it's very likely that this person is the one who kidnapped your wife. It looks like you have to be careful. Their main target should be you."
"As for Di Yongxin and Buddha, they should know something like the Green Emperor. That person is not prepared to expose himself prematurely. Or rather, he is not fully prepared and does not have 100% confidence in dealing with you. Hence, he killed those who know about it."
The Sword Emperor was indeed an old monster who had lived for tens of thousands of years. He was able to deduce the matter from a simple connection.
Shenlang nodded his head slightly. Although the person in the dark was unnerving, Shenlang was not too concerned. If that person really had the strength to deal with him, he would not have acted so sneakily and would have taken action long ago.
"You be careful too."
Shenlang said to the Sword Emperor.
The Sword Emperor smiled confidently and said proudly, "If that person dares to appear, I will definitely capture him for you."
Shenlang could not help but chuckle. He was a little worried. The Sword Emperor was stronger than him. No matter how many tricks the person in the dark had, as long as he had not reached the Sovereign Realm, he would not be able to win against the Sword Emperor.
Seeing that the matter had come to an end, the Sword Emperor did not stay any longer. He bade farewell to Shenlang and flew into the void.
"Let's go. The trail is broken. Let's look for something else. As long as that person is still in the Gods Continent, we will be able to find him sooner or later."
Shenlang and the other two searched the valley again. After finding nothing else, they turned and left.
