"I got the news about Exalted Fire Luminary. That's why I came here." Sunlight Emperor stared at Black-clothed Brocade Emperor, "Why did you come here?"
In the boundless outer space, the time and space were chaotic. One could be teleported to another world at any time.
But it would be too much of a coincidence to say that he came here by accident.
"I came here specifically." Black-clothed Brocade Emperor said calmly, "Not for Exalted Fire Luminary. I'm looking for someone else."
Sunlight Emperor frowned, "… Someone else?"
Mars Halberd and Yan Zhaoge, who were hidden by Mars Halberd, were both slightly moved after hearing that.
"Fellow daoist Fu, forgive me for being so bold. Are you … going to join the Immortal Court?" Sunlight Emperor's expression was unprecedentedly serious.
Black-clothed Brocade Emperor shook his head, "Not yet."
Not yet …
The meaning behind these three words was truly profound.
"On the other hand, I do have such a plan. But I haven't put it into practice yet." Yan Zhaoge thought, "Did we give him too much pressure? Not necessarily … "
Sunlight Emperor stared at Black-clothed Brocade Emperor, "Forgive me for being so bold. Fellow daoist Fu, what you did was a little inappropriate."
"I don't want to be killed by my other self." Black-clothed Brocade Emperor said calmly, "He could get the Four Grands Earlier Heaven Flag with the help of others. So I had to find other helpers."
Sunlight Emperor continued, "The other … the other fellow daoist Fu in white, is he also looking for the helpers of the Immortal Court? Or has he found the Blessed Land of Buddhism? "
"He attacked secretly and retreated after one attack. But he chose the most critical moment. So I failed to get the Four Grands Earlier Heaven Flag, and the immortal weapon fell into the hands of the white-clothed man." Black-clothed Brocade Emperor didn't hide anything. He said frankly, "It happened so suddenly that I'm not sure about his identity. But since I couldn't see through him, he should be above the True Immortal realm, and not a heretic."
Sunlight Emperor said in a deep voice, "If so, why did you come to ask for help from the heretics?"
"I'm already aware of the conflict between you and the other Daoist Fu, as well as the conflict between you and the descendant of the Exalted Gold Luminary. However, all of these are conflicts between our Daoism's Three Clear lineage. We shouldn't allow the heretics to get involved in it."
The black-clothed Brocade Emperor said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Candle Sunlight, aren't you also working with the Immortal Court heretics now?"
"It's just a temporary expedient." Sunlight Emperor said frankly. He didn't care whether the other party would lie to him or not.
"The same goes for me," the black-clothed Brocade Emperor said indifferently.
Sunlight Emperor looked at him, as if he was thinking about how credible his words were.
Yan Zhaoge felt that this was indeed the true thoughts of the black-clothed Brocade Emperor.
However, that was only for now.
Joining the Immortal Court meant accepting the Immortal Court's purification, giving birth to the treasured light imbued with faith power and worshipping the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord.
In this way, it was very likely that the Black-clothed Brocade Emperor wouldn't have to scheme for the Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud and the Taiyi Fist, he wouldn't have to kill Meng Wan and Fu Ting, and he wouldn't even have to fight with the White-clothed Brocade Emperor. He would have the hope of advancing a step further and ascending to the Profound Immortal Realm.
It didn't take much effort, it wasn't dangerous, and it looked perfect.
It seemed to fit the Black-clothed Brocade Emperor's usual style.
However, it might not be the best for him.
Being purified by the Immortal Court meant that his life and death would be in the hands of the Immortal Court in the future.
The Black-clothed Brocade Emperor wouldn't take this step unless he had no other choice.
The best result would be to tangle with the Immortal Court and try to borrow their strength to help him defeat the White-clothed Brocade Emperor and even obtain the Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud.
Yan Zhaoge and his son were also the thorn in the side of the Immortal Court.
It was still hard to say which one would be more beneficial to the Immortal Court, one more emperor who was purified, and one more emperor who was inclined to the Immortal Court and had the hope of ascending to the Profound Immortal Realm and becoming one of the dominators of the World beyond Worlds.
This was the black-clothed Brocade Emperor's bargaining chip.
Of course, it wasn't enough to make the situation develop as he planned. The Immortal Court wouldn't work for him for free.
How to weigh the pros and cons, and how to compromise, were still entangled.
"Daoist Fu, listen to my advice." Sunlight Emperor looked at the Black-clothed Brocade Emperor and said, "I've already known about your affairs. It's not impossible for you to defeat the white-clothed Daoist Fu and obtain the Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud of the Exalted Gold Luminary's descendant."
"The descendant of the Exalted Gold Luminary had messed with Yin Dim Radiance and the Bright Connection Hu. They shouldn't be tolerated in the World beyond Worlds. They killed Daoist Wang Zhengcheng, and the Earthly Sovereign wouldn't ignore it. After the matter of the Exalted Fire Luminary is settled, the Earthly Sovereign will return to the World beyond Worlds. With him and the Concealed Sovereign working together, nothing will go wrong."
"I haven't had any dealings with the white-robed Fellow Daoist Fu, but I've heard others mention that it's difficult for Fellow Daoist Fu to make progress. He's lost, and his path isn't as clear as yours. Although it's a little cruel, I support you more."
Sunlight Emperor said in a deep voice, "However, it's like asking a tiger for its skin to cooperate with the Immortal Court. The affairs of the World beyond Worlds should be settled by the Three Clear Lineage. Don't involve the heretics!"
"However, the reason why I ended up like this is that I'm also a member of the Three Clear Lineage." Black-clothed Brocade Emperor said lightly.
Sunlight Emperor frowned, "You mean the former Southern Exalt, Zhuang Shen?"
Black-clothed Brocade Emperor shook his head, "Zhuang Shen is nothing. He just took advantage of the situation at the end. The source is one of the three sovereigns of the World beyond Worlds, or the missing Astro Sovereign. "
"If the Profound Immortal didn't take action, how could I be affected?"
Sunlight Emperor looked surprised and said, "You mean …"
"If it's the Sword Sovereign, it's fine." Black-clothed Brocade Emperor said indifferently, "If it's not the Sword Sovereign, but the others, how can I count on them?"
"At that time, Yan Zhaoge and his son didn't come out, and the Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud was also missing. After what happened today, the white-clothed Brocade Emperor would definitely take care of the aftermath, not me."
Sunlight Emperor was silent.
If the person who caused all this really had a way to help the white-clothed Brocade Emperor to make progress, it would be a bargaining chip to rope in the white-clothed Brocade Emperor.
The white-clothed Brocade Emperor was on the side of the Broad Creed Mountain, while the black-clothed Brocade Emperor had conflicts with the Broad Creed Mountain.
It was self-evident which one was more necessary to rope in and fight for.
Black-clothed Brocade Emperor had already lost the upper hand in the fight between the white-clothed Brocade Emperor and the black-clothed Brocade Emperor. White-clothed Brocade Emperor had the Four Grands Earlier Heaven Flag and the Taiyi Fist. Facing the black-clothed Brocade Emperor, he had an overwhelming advantage.
Earthly Sovereign and Concealed Sovereign naturally had conflicts with the Broad Creed Mountain. Earthly Sovereign had to go back to the World beyond Worlds to settle things.
However, it didn't mean that they would definitely stand on the side of the black-clothed Brocade Emperor who also had conflicts with the Broad Creed Mountain.
Those were two different things.
"It's related to life and death. I can't say anything." Sunlight Emperor said seriously while looking at the black-clothed Brocade Emperor after being silent for a while, "But fellow daoist Fu, please reconsider. It's definitely not a good choice for life and death, destiny and the Dao if you join the Immortal Court."
