CHAPTER 1745: CHAPTER 1745
Scapegoat
The reason why He Zhiming didn't choose to attack the grey-robed elder wasn't because of the cooperation the grey-robed elder mentioned, but because of the powerful aura the grey-robed elder was emitting!
Late-stage Saint!
The grey-robed elder's cultivation had reached the terrifying Late-stage Sage Realm!
He Zhiming knew his place well when facing the grey-robed elder who was a late-stage Sage.
Unless he used his final trump card, he would not be a match for the grey-robed elder!
Was he going to use his last trump card now?
He Zhiming wasn't that stupid!
He Zhiming took a deep breath and stared at the old man in grey as he said in a deep voice, "Even though your cultivation has reached the late Saint Realm, I'm not afraid of you!"
"What's there to be afraid of? I've come here mainly to discuss the matter of cooperation with you …" The grey-robed elder waved his hand. Just as he was about to say something, he saw He Zhiming's furious expression and hurriedly changed his words. "Let me introduce myself. My name is An Haoping, and I'm from the An Clan, one of the nine War God Clans of the Demon Spirit Realm."
"An Haoping of the An Clan of the Nine Great Wargods Clans?"
He Zhiming frowned slightly, his eyes flickering.
He Zhiming had investigated the Immortal Spirit realm in the higher planes.
Because the Demonic Spirit Realm and the Immortal Spirit Realm were neighbors, He Zhiming had some understanding of the Demonic Spirit Realm.
The Devil Spirit Realm had a total of nine War God Clans, and every War God Clan was filled with experts.
He Zhiming was quite a character.
His focus wasn't An Haoping, but the Devil Spirit Realm's An Clan, as well as the relationship between the An Clan and the Zhang Clan!
Since An Haoping came over to cooperate with him, it was definitely not a small matter.
Maybe it was inextricably linked to Zhang Qiang.
"My purpose for coming here is very simple."
Seeing He Zhiming frown, An Haoping knew that things could be expected.
He said, "Let's attack the Emperor Palace together. I'll help you gain control of the Emperor Palace, and you help me kill Zhang Qiang and Zhang Kejun!"
Boom!
When An Haoping's voice fell, He Zhiming's heart immediately stirred up some waves.
Although He Zhiming had long guessed that An Haoping's arrival was related to Zhang Qiang, he was still very excited when An Haoping admitted it.
There was no other reason.
With the help of An Haoping, a warrior at the Late-stage of the Saint Realm, it was not impossible to recapture the Emperor Palace.
"You're a Late-stage Sage. You can wait until Zhang Qiang and Zhang Kejun come out of the Emperor Palace."
Forcibly suppressing the excitement in his heart, He Zhiming said solemnly.
There was no free lunch in the world, and He Zhiming was not a fool.
Under normal circumstances, it would be easy for An Qianhao, a warrior at the Late-stage of Sage Realm, to kill Zhang Qiang and Zhang Kejun.
There was absolutely no need to cooperate with him!
Since An Haoping cooperated with him, it meant that he had value, or that there was something that An Haoping was interested in.
Equivalent exchange was the basis of cooperation.
If the two sides couldn't make an equivalent exchange, then the cooperation was destined to not last long.
An Haoping's expression was solemn. He shook his head and said, "It's not that I haven't tried what you said, but the effect is minimal."
"Zhang Qiang is a very scheming person. I attacked him once before and it was very unpleasant. It has aroused his suspicion, so …"
At this point, An Haoping paused for a moment and did not continue.
Even if An Haoping did not say it, He Zhiming had roughly figured out the situation.
An Haoping was afraid of being discovered by Zhang Qiang, so he did not dare to make a move. He wanted to use He Zhiming to kill Zhang Qiang and Zhang Kejun.
If it had been in the past, He Zhiming would have been able to react. After all, An Haoping's explanation was full of loopholes.
But now, He Zhiming was blinded by hatred. He wanted to go back to the Emperor Palace and kill Ning Yue, which led to An Haoping taking advantage of the loophole.
"This matter can't be rushed. I'll go and challenge them first. You hide in the Void and don't do anything. Just follow my instructions."
A ruthless look flashed across An Haoping's eyes, and then he said, "You're seriously injured now. You'd better recuperate for three or four hours. We'll set off after you've recovered to your peak state."
"What are you afraid of? I'm fine!" He Zhiming patted his chest and said coldly, "Let's set off now. I'm afraid that Human Demon will recover if we're a few steps late."
In fact, not long after leaving the Emperor Palace, He Zhiming had figured it out.
Human Demon could raise his cultivation to the Peak Late Saint Realm in such a short time. He must have taken some forbidden elixir.
Generally speaking, those who took forbidden elixirs would end up in a miserable state.
Backlash!
Once the effect of the elixir wore off, the person who took it would definitely suffer a backlash.
Previously, although He Zhiming knew that Human Demon would suffer a backlash, he didn't dare to go back. After all, he wasn't absolutely sure.
But now, with the addition of An Haoping, a Late Saint Realm warrior, He Zhiming felt a lot more confident.
Now that he was confident, He Zhiming wanted to go back as soon as possible!
"Hahaha, no wonder you're from a higher plane. Since you're fine, let's set off!"
An Haoping laughed. Then, he stomped on the ground and flew towards the Emperor Divine Palace.
"Humph!"
Seeing that An Haoping had left, He Zhiming didn't stay for long. He also moved and disappeared behind An Haoping.
Buzz!
Not long after An Haoping and He Zhiming disappeared, two figures appeared in the Void.
These two martial artists looked to be in their forties or fifties from the outside.
They were shrouded in a layer of faint white mist, making it impossible to see their cultivation.
"An Haoping's move is really good."
Looking in the direction where An Haoping and He Zhiming disappeared, one of the middle-aged men couldn't help but nod.
The middle-aged man who spoke had a cold expression, giving off a feeling that strangers shouldn't get close to him.
As for the other middle-aged man, he said with a smile, "An Haoping is very calm. I'm afraid the An Clan sent him out because of this."
"With An Haoping taking action, I reckon that the Emperor Palace will be breached soon. We should also prepare early." The cold-looking man's expression was indifferent. No one could tell what he was thinking.
"Yes, we have to prepare, but not now."
Smiling Tiger raised the corner of his mouth and said, "An Haoping is a high-ranking member of the An Clan. If we can make him suffer a little, in the future, our two clans …"
Smiling Tiger did not continue, but the meaning behind his words was self-evident.
Among the nine War God Clans in the Demon Spirit Realm, each clan had mutual interests and conflicts.
To any clan, the loss of even a single Sage Realm warrior was a huge matter.
This time, the three clans had joined hands to plot against the Zhang Clan. Moreover, there was a War God Candidate from the Zhang Clan. If they succeeded, the benefits would be great!
Of course, there were benefits and disadvantages.
The disadvantage was that the Zhang Clan would find out and choose to fight to the death!
Obviously, Smiling Tiger had thought of this.
However, Smiling Tiger wasn't particularly worried because he was already prepared.
