Lightning filled the sky. Even though they were a great distance away, everyone was still able to clearly sense the frightening aura. The aura fluctuations emitted from Xiao Wenhao's body caused the soldiers of the two armies to involuntarily tremble.
"Why is there another one!"
"Could it be a hidden expert of our empire?"
"As long as we can stop this human, we don't care where he comes from!"
Everyone was shocked, and after the lightning dissipated, they saw clearly that the person who came was actually another human.
At this moment, the two armies could no longer remain calm. There was an uproar.
In the underground world, no human had ever stepped foot in it for millions of years. But today, two humans had appeared at the same time. Moreover, they were so powerful.
"Second Brother, what's going on?" The empire's Third General stared at the Second General in bewilderment. They had intended to stop Lin Yun, but they did not expect Xiao Wenhao to suddenly appear and attack Lin Yun.
The Second General smiled coldly and said, "I heard the King say that humans love to fight each other. Let's observe the situation first. If this person is here to stop Lin Yun, then let them fight to the death. Why should we care so much about them?"
Xiao Wenhao's appearance was indeed unexpected. The Ri King, who was fighting with the Moon Lord, also had a solemn expression.
His divine senses had already reached the Fourth Realm. Naturally, he could feel the strength of Xiao Wenhao's aura. This was a formidable expert who was no weaker than Lin Yun and Zhong Da.
He could still pray that Xiao Wenhao was not here to stop Lin Yun.
"Lin Yun, long time no see. I miss you so much," Xiao Wenhao said softly, a cold smile on his face.
He was still brooding over the fact that he had been severely injured by the Demon God Destroyer.
He looked at the corpse of the Earth Spirit Divine Beast beneath his feet and felt even more satisfied.
"It seems like someone in the team betrayed us." Lin Yun's tone was cold. Previously, he had felt that the Demon Killing Bureau's ability to break the Twelve Earth Branch Formations was very strange. However, he did not take this matter to heart.
Now that Xiao Wenhao had appeared here again, Lin Yun suddenly realized that their whereabouts must have been discovered by the Demon Killing Bureau.
"Biology Professor?" Lin Yun voiced out his guess. Apart from Lan Fengyuan, only the biology professor had participated in the two operations.
Lin Yun believed that the Dragon and Phoenix Beasts had always been by his side. If they were under the Demon Killing Bureau's control, it was impossible that he would not know.
Xiao Wenhao did not try to deceive him. He nodded proudly and said, "That's right. One of my subordinates had his body taken over many days ago. I know everything about your actions in the Earth Village like the back of my hand."
"You can take the Earth Core Crystal if you want it, but I can't fight you today." Lin Yun remained calm.
Lin Yun knew that Xiao Wenhao wasn't only here for him, but also for the Earth Core Crystal.
Compared to the Earth element core crystal, Lin Yun was more concerned about the Dragon and Phoenix Beasts' lives.
If he did not get the Earth element core crystal, he would just have to find another one. If the Dragon and Phoenix Beasts died, there would be no turning back. Lin Yun knew what was more important.
"Are you trying to make me laugh?" Xiao Wenhao could not help but burst into laughter. "How can you be so naive to think that I would let go of such a great opportunity to kill you?!"
"You can't kill me." Lin Yun used an indifferent tone to reply. These words might sound a bit conceited in the ears of others, but it was also the truth.
Although Lin Yun could not kill Xiao Wenhao, Xiao Wenhao could not kill him either.
"Today, I'm here to have a try with you. Let's see whether I can kill you or not!"
Xiao Wenhao stepped forward and pointed the Innumerable Lightning Sword at Lin Yun.
However, Lin Yun, who had always been domineering, did not accept the challenge. Instead, he frowned and said, "Xiao Wenhao, you must have some understanding of this place since you have been here for a few days."
"Then you should know that someone in this palace is about to break through to Emperor Wu. If we don't stop him, when he comes out of seclusion, neither of us will live."
He did not say this to include Lin Yun showing weakness. He was just stating the truth.
The Underground King hated humans. If he really became an Emperor, the first thing he would do after seeing Lin Yun and Xiao Wenhao was to kill them.
"Become an Emperor?" Xiao Wenhao could not help but laugh as if he had heard the funniest thing in the world. "Do you really think that Emperor Wu is as common as pork under a butcher's knife?" he said disdainfully.
"Any random Tom, Dick, or Harry wants to become an Emperor?"
"If it was so easy to become an Emperor, the Holy Venerate would have become Emperor Wu long ago."
"You are courting death!"
"Don't you dare insult the Underground King!"
"Brothers, let's kill him!"
Xiao Wenhao's words completely infuriated the crowd.
The soldiers of the empire regarded the Underground King as a god. How could they allow Xiao Wenhao to insult the Underground King and call him a random Tom, Dick, or Harry? All of them wielded their sharp blades and charged at Xiao Wenhao.
"Unruly people from a remote and desolate place. You are just a bunch of ants."
Xiao Wenhao looked down on all living beings. He held the Innumerable Lightning Sword in his right hand and waved it casually.
In an instant, a thunderbolt Sword Qi directly struck forward.
Along the way, all the soldiers who attacked Xiao Wenhao were cut in half by the Sword Qi without exception.
The Sword Qi even left a gully that was tens of thousands of meters long and thousands of meters deep on the ground.
This sword strike had truly shocked the soldiers of the empire.
Everyone could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. Even the Great General of the empire reacted at this moment. Xiao Wenhao was actually a powerhouse who was no weaker than him.
Xiao Wenhao looked at Lin Yun, only to find that Lin Yun had a mocking smile on his face. He asked discontentedly, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at your ignorance and stupidity. It's no wonder that the Five Supremes are always suppressed by the Celestial realm. Their subordinates are all good-for-nothings like you!"
Lin Yun berated Xiao Wenhao without any mercy. In his opinion, Xiao Wenhao was really stupid.
He had seen very little of Emperor Wu. He had lived a comfortable life in the Demon Extermination Bureau all year round and had no idea that there was always someone better than him out there.
This time, the Underground King had waited for an opportunity for a hundred years. With the help of the magnetic field, the Earth Core's energy had skyrocketed, allowing him to break through his limits and become Emperor Wu. This was not a rare thing. Unfortunately, Xiao Wenhao did not understand the situation.
"You should apologize with your death for insulting me!"
Xiao Wenhao was furious. The Innumerable Lightning Sword in his hand shone brightly. In an instant, dozens of thunderbolt Sword Qi slashed toward Lin Yun.
Xiao Wenhao kept waving his sword, releasing one thunderbolt Sword Qi after another. He wanted to smash Lin Yun into pieces.
