The secret passage was completely dark, and it was so dark that he couldn't even see his own fingers.
Even with Xuan Sitian's cultivation, he was still completely blind. He couldn't see anything clearly.
It was as if something had swallowed all the light.
Something seemed to be wrong. Just as Xuan Sitian felt that something was wrong, a fist fiercely attacked him from behind.
That fist was impossible to guard against. When the fist came down, it covered many of Xuan Sitian's blind spots. The secret passage was narrow, and Xuan Sitian felt as if he had nowhere to run.
Not good! An ambush.
This was Xuan Sitian's first reaction when he was attacked.
The opponent was a martial artist who was extremely skilled in close combat. Xuan Sitian only had one thought in his mind, and that was to save his life!
A Holy Rank magic tool suddenly appeared in his hand.
The magic tool suddenly turned into a purple-gold shield, blocking the fist.
Although Xuan Sitian was a summoner, he was also the lord of a city. He had many treasures and magic tools on him.
This purple-gold shield had astonishing defensive power.
The assassin in the dark punched down at an extremely fast speed and landed on the purple-gold shield.
Even though the purple-gold shield had astonishing defensive power, it was still hit by this huge force and a hole instantly appeared.
However, it was also because of this block that Xuan Sitian managed to save his life and had the time to chant a magic incantation.
To be able to penetrate the purple-gold shield with one punch, could this assassin's fist be made of purple-gold as well?!
Xuan Sitian was shocked.
What was even more shocking was that after the assassin's fist penetrated the purple-gold shield, it seemed as if nothing had happened at all. It retracted its fist, shook its wrist slightly, and threw out several more punches. The fist shadows surged towards Xuan Sitian like a tide.
However, Xuan Sitian wasn't an ordinary person. In an instant, he finished chanting a magic incantation and used Wind Evasion to escape from the secret passage.
Xuan Sitian's head was covered in cold sweat.
Behind him, a voice full of ridicule sounded.
"Xuan Sitian, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Xuan Sitian's heart trembled, and he slowly turned around.
"You're the Regent Of Great Zhou, Ye Beiming?"
A black-clothed man suddenly appeared in the previously empty room.
The black-clothed man had a charming appearance. His slightly tanned skin was as smooth as jade, and his black clothes were even darker than the night sky. His eyes were like the stars in the dark night. Even in the dim room, they were as dazzling as candlelight.
Xuan Sitian never thought that the Regent Of Great Zhou, who had risen to fame in the past few years, would be such a person.
Xuan Sitian was one of the strongest experts in the world.
However, when the black-clothed man saw him, his expression was relaxed and fearless, and there was even a faint smile on the corners of his mouth.
As soon as the black-clothed man appeared, a guard stood behind "him".
Xuan Sitian's pupils violently shrank.
The guard behind the black-clothed man was actually a golden man made of purple gold.
He was still holding his Purple Gold Shield in his hand.
There was even a clear hole in the shield.
Just now, when Xuan Sitian used the purple-gold shield to dodge that fatal sneak attack in the secret passageway, he only cared about running for his life. He didn't even know that the purple-gold shield had been taken away by the assassin.
Xuan Sitian immediately realized that the person who had almost taken his life in the secret passageway was the purple-gold man in front of him.
There was actually a purple-gold man who could walk around like a living person on the continent.
Could it be that this was the legendary Eternal Magic Tool that only Master Artificers could refine?
Xuan Sitian's heart tightened. He suddenly felt that the identity of the Regent Of Great Zhou in front of him was even more mysterious.
Xuan Sitian didn't recognize Yun Sheng.
The Yun Sheng who had come to the Grand Emperor City several years ago was very different from the Yun Sheng who had disguised herself today. More importantly, Yun Sheng's strength back then was only that of a Master Magician.
However, the "Regent Of Great Zhou" standing in front of Xuan Sitian now had a luxurious aura and a powerful purple-gold guard.
"City Lord, do you like this prince's hospitality?" Although Yun Sheng's expression was calm, she was somewhat worried in her heart.
She had failed. She didn't expect that she would fail to kill Xuan Sitian even after using all her schemes and exposing her tycoon gold.
Xuan Sitian was even more troublesome than she had imagined.
He had already set up a trap in the secret passageway.
Yun Sheng immediately thought of this when she found the White Tiger Emperor's Jade under the guidance of Papa Sheep.
Since the Emperor's Jade Pass was so important that it could find the path to becoming a God, then Xuan Sitian, who controlled the Azure Dragon Totem, must have already known of the existence of the path to becoming a God.
For someone as ambitious as Xuan Sitian, the temptation of becoming a God was far greater than conquering the continent.
If Xuan Sitian returned to the Grand Emperor City in defeat, his ambition of conquering the continent would be completely shattered.
He would definitely find the White Tiger Emperor's Jade, then steal the Vermillion Bird Emperor's Jade and the Black Emperor's Jade. He would gather the four jades and open the path to becoming a God of Flames.
After making up her mind, Yun Sheng immediately decided to set up two ambushes in the secret passageway.
The first ambush was to use Xiao Hei's Devouring the Heavens Battle Skill to blind Xuan Sitian in the secret passageway.
The second ambush was to use Tycoon Gold.
Tycoon Gold knew both magic and battle aura. It didn't breathe at all and was hiding in the secret passageway. As long as she succeeded in one strike, she would be able to kill Xuan Sitian.
Xuan Sitian had almost fallen into Yun Sheng's trap.
However, Yun Sheng had underestimated Xuan Sitian. She didn't think that he would be able to immediately use the Holy Magic Tool on him in such a dangerous situation and avoid disaster.
The failure of the ambush in the secret passageway meant that Yun Sheng had missed the best opportunity to easily kill Xuan Sitian. What would happen next would be an unprecedentedly fierce battle.
"Regent Of Great Zhou, you're so treacherous. You actually set up an ambush in the dark. Aren't you afraid of sullying your reputation by doing this? Also, the zither music around the barracks and those deceptive papers were all spread by you! "Xuan Sitian clenched his teeth in hatred.
He was the Grand Emperor City's mayor, the master of the Azure Dragon Totem. He had been the ruler of the continent for dozens of years. This time, he had actually fallen into the hands of a greenhorn.
This was a great humiliation. This was simply a great humiliation.
He had to get rid of Ye Beiming of Zhou State!
"Xuan Sitian, how can I compare to you in terms of treachery? You killed your wife and stole her treasures. You also didn't care about the lives of your subordinates and snuck into the city to steal the White Tiger Emperor Jade." Yun Sheng was very calm in the face of insults.
Being open and aboveboard was only for opponents of similar strength.
Xuan Sitian's strength was much greater than hers.
If she met him head on, she would definitely die. Since that was the case, she could only use her wits.
Furthermore, she, Yun Sheng, was not stupid to talk about being open and aboveboard with an old fox.
After leaving the secret passageway and seeing the situation around him, Xuan Sitian calmed down.
He glanced sideways at Yun Sheng, then at the secret passageway behind him. He understood in his heart.
"Looks like you already know about the God's Path." Even in the Grand Emperor City, very few people knew about the four pieces of Emperor Jade.
Since the "Regent Of Great Zhou" knew about it, that meant that "he" had awakened one of the Emperor Jades.
After Xuan Sitian found out that the other party already knew about the secret of the Emperor Jades and the God's Path, he did not get angry. Instead, he revealed a sinister smile.
