What made Wutian suspicious was naturally Hong Yu.
Thinking of this, Wutian looked at the Lower Profound Saint and said apologetically, "Saint, I'm sorry, Feng Hualu, he …"
"Feng 'er? By the way, where is Feng 'er? "
Before he could finish speaking, the Lower Profound Saint's expression suddenly changed. He stood up and stared at Wutian, asking, "Where is Feng 'er? Didn't he come to the battlefield with you? "
Looking deeply at him, Wutian sighed softly and briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter.
"How could this be?" Hearing this, the Lower Profound Saint's face suddenly turned pale and he powerlessly sat back down on the stone bench, looking extremely haggard as if he had suddenly entered his twilight years.
Wutian's lips moved. He wanted to say that perhaps Feng Hualu was not dead, but to be honest, he could not be sure.
If Feng Hualu had really died, then the wisp of soul he controlled would have automatically disappeared, but now that the wisp of soul was still there, it was reasonable to say that Feng Hualu should still be alive, but Wutian could not sense his life aura.
Moreover, due to the soul contract, he did not dare to speak of this matter. Otherwise, it would be difficult to guarantee that the Lower Profound Saint would not do something to harm him.
After a moment of silence, the Lower Profound Saint shook his head and rubbed his face vigorously. He let out a turbid breath and said, "Let's continue! Feng 'er's whereabouts will be discussed after this matter is over. "
The Lower Profound Saint's reaction stunned Wutian.
If it were someone else, hearing that their child's whereabouts were unknown, how could they be in the mood to sit here and talk about other things? They would have already searched the world for him.
However, the Lower Profound Saint did not do so for the sake of the overall situation.
To be honest, he did not know whether he should feel proud or sad that Feng Hualu had such a selfless father.
After calming himself down, Wutian said slowly, "That day, after you, the Wisdom King, and the Thunder King left, we returned to the House of Leisure. However, not long after, a dancer named Hong Yu came looking for us, saying that she wanted to treat us to a drink. However, she had ulterior motives. She mixed the drink with Heartbreak Grass."
"Heart Loss Grass!" The Flood Dragon Emperor and the other two were shocked.
Wutian nodded and said, "That's right. If it weren't for the fact that I had a rare treasure, I'm afraid she would have succeeded that night. Then, I searched her soul. Guess what information I obtained from her memories?"
The Ice Devil Sovereign laughed and scolded, "Smelly brat, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't keep me in suspense."
Shaking his head and smiling, Wutian said, "She was ordered by a Middle Profound Saint to assassinate me."
Hearing this, the Demon Master and the other two immediately frowned.
They truly hadn't expected that even a Middle Profound Saint would be dragged in.
After a long period of silence, the Wyrm Emperor said, "Wutian, it's not that we don't trust you, but this matter is too mysterious. We can follow your plan, but if they're proven innocent in the end, you must immediately remove that contract."
"Of course."
Wutian nodded with a magnanimous expression. In fact, he had already begun to plan in his heart.
Whether it was the North Profound Saint or the Middle Profound Saint, they were all existences that surpassed the Unparalleled Stage. If he could control them and make them work for him, who would dare to compete with him?
As he thought about it, the corner of his mouth involuntarily lifted, revealing a strange smile.
"What are you thinking about? Why are you smiling so strangely?" The Flood Dragon Emperor suddenly asked.
Wutian's eyes flashed, but his expression didn't change as he said, "This junior is thinking that if my plan succeeds, it will definitely be a fatal blow to the Western Region. At that time, I wonder what reward the three seniors will give me?"
"You coerced me into giving you one billion battle merits. Are you still not satisfied?" The Middle Profound Saint's face darkened.
"That's a separate matter." Wutian said with a smile. What a joke, when it concerned his own interests, how could he not fight for it with all his might?
"You're really a little fox." The Flood Dragon Emperor shook his head helplessly and said with a smile, "Well, as long as the result satisfies me, I'll give you another billion battle merits."
Wutian frowned and asked, "Seniors, this junior has a question to ask."
"Speak."
"Are there many Fifth Tribulation Divine Weapons in the Xuanhuang Battlefield?"
The Flood Dragon Emperor was puzzled, "Why are you asking this?"
"Since you're asking for one billion battle merits, of course this junior wants to confirm if there are really that many Divine Weapons in the War Merits Divine Hall. If there aren't, it's useless for me to have so many battle merits. Don't you think so?" Wutian said.
"Boy, you're really watertight. I don't mind telling you, not to mention dozens of fifth tribulation divine weapons, we can even take out hundreds of them. The key is whether you have the ability to get them or not." The Xuan Holy Son joked.
"So many!" Wutian was shocked and hurriedly said, "Then I've changed my mind. If this plan succeeds, you'll give me at least ten billion battle merits."
"You can just stay here and continue to dream about it! Let's go find the North Profound Saint. " The Flood Dragon Emperor rolled his eyes. After saying that, he disappeared without a trace with the Demon Master and the Profound Saint.
"My plan this time can really cause heavy losses to the Western Region. You'd better think about it!" Wutian said hurriedly. He was very unwilling. If he had known that there were so many Divine Weapons, he would have negotiated the price first!
How regretful!
His intestines were green with regret.
"Wutian, what are you planning?" Han Tian looked at him strangely.
"Haha! What else can I be planning? I just want to get both the woman and the money. "Longhu smiled foolishly.
Han Tian finally came to a realization after some thought. He looked at Longhu and said through clenched teeth, "If anyone dares to call you honest again, I'll kill them."
"Shh!"
As his eyes flashed, Wutian made a shushing gesture to the four of them, meaning to be careful that the walls have ears. Han Tian and the others nodded repeatedly to show that they understood. Then, everyone looked at each other and couldn't help but smile brightly.
Time flew.
An hour later, the Flood Dragon Emperor and the other two returned. The Ice Demon Lord was still holding a bloody old man.
Wutian and the others looked over and couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
The old man's body was badly mutilated. His hands were hanging limply, and his head was drooping. Obviously, all the bones in his body had been shattered. His mouth was foaming with blood, and he was still moaning silently.
To put it bluntly, the old man was now a pile of meat paste.
Han Tian asked, "Who did it? So ruthless?"
The Middle Profound Saint glanced at the expressionless Ice Demon Lord and smiled bitterly. "Who else among us can seriously injure a Saint with one move?"
Wutian and the others couldn't help but look at the Ice Demon Lord, cursing inwardly. As expected of an ancient great evil. His methods were so ruthless that it made one tremble!
The Flood Dragon Emperor shook his head. "Actually, you can't blame the Demon Lord. It's Beixuan who didn't cooperate. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state."
"Enough nonsense. Hurry up and search his soul." The Ice Demon Lord said coldly. It seemed that the North Profound Saint had really angered him.
"Because the North Profound Saint is too powerful, we need to control him before searching his soul. Otherwise, I might suffer a backlash." Wutian said seriously. Then, he walked forward and secretly instructed Little Wu Hao to sign a soul contract.
Seeing that Wutian's face was not red and his heart was not beating fast, Ye Tian and the other three looked at each other. They could not help but find it funny in their hearts. They secretly sighed that this fellow's acting talent was getting higher and higher.
Soon, the soul contract was signed. Wutian couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. However, he didn't look suspicious at all.
Then, he began to search his soul.
"Just as I expected, there's something else!"
This was the first sentence Wutian said after the soul search was completed. Then, he ignored the bewildered Flood Dragon Emperor and the others and sat back on the stone bench. His eyes looked through the cave entrance and looked at the mountains and rivers outside. His expression was uncertain.
Just as the Middle Profound Saint was about to ask, Han Tian shook his head and said, "Senior Saint, don't be anxious. Wutian is sorting out the North Profound Saint's memories."
For a moment, the Immortal's Cave fell into a deathly silence.
Under the expectant and nervous gazes of the Flood Dragon Emperor and the others, Wutian finally reacted. He withdrew his gaze and took out a leaf from the Green Glass Tree from the Star Realm. He gave it to Han Tian and instructed him to feed it to the North Profound Saint.
When the leaf entered the North Profound Saint's mouth, Wutian looked at the Flood Dragon Emperor and the others and said, "The North Profound Saint is just a chess piece used by someone."
"Chess piece? Who used him? "the Flood Dragon Emperor said gloomily.
The faces of the Lower Profound Saint and the Ice Demon Master also sank.
"Upper Profound Saint!" Wutian said word by word.
"How is that possible? Didn't you just say that Hongyu was sent by a Middle Profound Saint to assassinate you? Then why is it an Upper Profound Saint now?" Han Tian frowned. He felt that his mind was in a mess.
Wutian shook his head. When he was silent earlier, he was thinking about this question.
"Wutian, I'm warning you. You better not joke about this." The Flood Dragon Emperor's face sank. For the first time, he was unkind to Wutian.
Wutian looked straight at the Flood Dragon Emperor and said, "I'm not joking. From the North Profound Saint's memories, I know that before the secret meeting of the four Saints, the Upper Profound Saint and the North Profound Saint had a secret talk and reached an agreement."
"What agreement?" The Flood Dragon Emperor and the others, as well as Han Tian's group, looked at him in confusion.
Wutian said, "The Upper Profound Saint asked the North Profound Saint to propose to kill the Flood Dragon Emperor in advance. In return, the Upper Profound Saint agreed to refine an Extreme Dao Saint Weapon for the North Profound Saint!"
"Extreme Dao Saint Weapon?" Han Tian and the others were confused.
"So it's like that." The Ice Demon Master understood and said, "But we can't just listen to your side of the story. We have to wait for the North Profound Saint Weapon to wake up and get confirmation from him before we can act against the Upper Profound Saint Weapon."
"Whatever."
Wutian shrugged and gave a look to Han Tian and the others, meaning that he would explain the Extreme Dao Saint Weapon later. Then, he began to ponder.
Since the Middle Profound Saint wasn't a spy, why would he try to kill him? And could the killing intent from a few days ago be for him?
