Wu Jizi's screams rang out in the great hall behind them, but Fang Xing and Lu Sou ignored them and walked out of the great hall. They knew that the screams would continue for another six hours, so there was no point in waiting there …
Then, on the way back, the two of them did not say a word. They directly rode a cloud to the vast star where the Toad Army was stationed. When they landed on the vast star, Fang Xing turned back to take a look. He felt that there seemed to be a gaze on them from the vast star where the Black Iron Palace was located. However, he did not care. He only laughed and landed on the vast star where the Toad Army was stationed. Then, he entered the palace and sat down cross-legged. Lu Sou drank a cup of elixir tea while Fang Xing drank half a jar of wine. Both of them calmed down. Lu Sou also thought through everything. Then, he looked at Fang Xing solemnly and said in a low voice, "We can't stay here any longer. We need to find a chance to leave!"
Fang Xing laughed and said, "Why do we have to leave? Haven't we already covered it up?"
Lu Sou lowered his voice as if he still had some lingering fear. "But they are already suspicious …"
He paused for a moment before continuing in a low voice, "To you, the other party doesn't need to prove that you're fake. As long as they start to suspect you, your identity is destined to be exposed, because it's impossible for you to be completely flawless. As long as you have a single flaw, they'll discover it sooner or later. I even suspect that the situation they've set up today isn't to expose your identity at all. They're just testing you, using this opportunity to observe your reaction. This already shows that they're suspicious of your identity!"
As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes. "That's why I said that you can continue to mingle around when they don't suspect you. But once they suspect you, you must leave. Otherwise, when your identity is completely exposed, I'm afraid you won't have the chance to leave at all!"
"Haha, I'm afraid it will be difficult to leave now …"
Fang Xing laughed as he gently patted the jar of wine in his arms.
Lu Sou's heart trembled. "Hmm?"
Fang Xing said, "Go outside and take a look at the situation of the surrounding defense!"
Lu Sou immediately nodded, lifted his robe and flew out to observe the surrounding situation.
Fang Xing, on the other hand, held the wine jar and took a sip from time to time. He shook his head and pondered about something.
Lu Sou's departure took several hours before he returned. His expression was solemn as he said in a low voice, "I was worried that they would secretly mobilize the Immortal Scourge Army to surround our camp to prevent us from leaving, but I didn't expect …"
Fang Xing turned to look at him and said with a smile, "You didn't mobilize the army?"
Lu Sou nodded solemnly and said, "On the contrary, not only did they not deploy the army to trap us, even the Celestial Army that was originally adjacent to us received an order to join the battle at the Myriad Treasures Immortal River at noon. In other words, the surrounding area where we're stationed is completely unguarded, and it's easy for us to leave if we want to. Moreover, it's very difficult for anyone to notice us …"
"Haha, then do you think the other party is deliberately letting us go?"
Fang Xing smiled, and there was a hint of shrewdness hidden in the depths of his smile, as if he had seen through the mystery.
Lu Sou thought for a while, then nodded and said, "That's also possible. What they did in the Darksteel Main Hall was to deliberately alert us. After we're startled, if we find out that there's still a chance to escape, I'm afraid they'll leave immediately!"
But at this point, he paused slightly and said in a low voice, "The problem is, we really need to leave …"
As he spoke, his eyes had already turned solemn, and at the same time, he felt a little helpless.
Although he and Fang Xing cooperated very well in the Darksteel Main Hall, turning from defense to offense, and did not get messed up by Immortal General Zi Xuan's probing. But the danger of the current situation could not be ignored. After all, Fang Xing was impersonating the Crown Prince. If no one suspected him, he could continue impersonating him. But now that there was a first probe, there would naturally be a second one. It was fine here, but when they returned to Great Scarlet Sky, it was even more likely that they would be seen through at a glance …
If that was the case, then what would happen if they did not leave now?
They might even be pushed away. This might be their only chance to escape!
Fang Xing thought that the surrounding Defense Celestial Army had been moved away because Immortal General Zi Xuan had thrown a bait. He wanted them to leave on their own accord!
Lu Sou also admitted this point, but he felt that even if it was a bait, he had to swallow it!
Because if he did not swallow it, he might not even have such bait in the future …
"Do you think that we should leave even if we know that it's a trap?"
Fang Xing laughed and said, "After all, we have the 300 Toad Army, and I also have powerful concealment techniques. As long as we scatter and escape separately, then even if Immortal General Zi Xuan makes a move, we still have a chance to escape. Of course, the 300 Toad Army may die here. If necessary, we still need to throw out some bait to attract the enemy's attention, so that we can conceal ourselves …"
"You're still concerned about the 300 Toad Army at this time?"
Lu Sou was a little angry when he heard this. "Don't tell me that you're still such an indecisive person!"
"You're the one who's indecisive. Your whole family is indecisive!"
Fang Xing immediately rolled his eyes and glared at Lu Sou. Then, he smiled and said, "I just think that there's a better way …"
Lu Sou said angrily, "Don't tell me that there's a better way. You always say that, and you always come up with a plan at the last minute. Just now in the Darksteel Hall, if my Taoist Heart was unstable, or if I wasn't flexible enough, I would have been exposed on the spot!"
"Alright, alright, I'll remember this, alright?"
Fang Xing laughed and said, "This time, I really have a plan!"
…
…
While Fang Xing and Lu Sou were conversing closely, Immortal General Zi Xuan was also staring at a person in the Darksteel Hall.
Or rather, this person no longer looked like a person.
This was a piece of charcoal!
Immortal General Zi Xuan's first aide, Wu Jizi, had been burned in the cauldron for a total of six hours. Although the cauldron's flame was weakened by 30% and his cultivation base was not weak, he had endured for six hours and was still alive. However, his entire body was charred and was less than three feet long. It was so charred that it looked like a large roasted sweet potato. No one could tell that he was still alive. However, under his charred appearance, there was still a ball of fresh flesh that contained his vitality!
"It can still be cured. I have the Emperor Essence given by the Immortal Emperor, which is enough to maintain your vitality. However, after you recuperate, your cultivation base will definitely be greatly reduced. However, it doesn't matter. I will give you some Enlightenment Immortal Medicine, which will be enough for you to cultivate back to your original cultivation base!"
Immortal General Zi Xuan looked at the charcoal and said calmly.
"I … hate … I'm in pain …"
Wu Jizi's resentful voice could be heard from within the charcoal.
"We can't blame you for this. We didn't expect him to have such a way to deal with it!"
Immortal General Zi Xuan calmly said, "Anyone who impersonates an impersonator would choose to play it down when they encounter such an unexpected test. They would try to bluff their way through so as to avoid a greater consequence. But I didn't expect … Haha, this Crown Prince is really different. Not only did he not play it down, he directly blew it up. Before the situation was clear, he wanted to make a false accusation. In this case, since we don't have any evidence, we can only bear with it for now and pay a price …"
Sighing softly, he looked at the piece of charcoal and said, "You suffered so much because of this small price!"
"He … he's fake … fake!"
Wu Jizi's spirit consciousness trembled as he called out intermittently.
"That's what I think too!"
Immortal General Zi Xuan said calmly. "If he's real, even a fiendish Emperor Liu's first reaction would be curiosity. Curiosity about how such a thing could happen. He wouldn't be like Wu Jizi, who immediately believed that someone was using his identity to make a fuss. Therefore, although his counterattack was fierce, it made me even more certain that the information brought by the Traveling Immortals … he … was indeed fake!"
"But …"
Immortal General Zi Xuan frowned as he spoke softly. "We still don't have any evidence …"
This was what they were most vexed about. The random news brought by the Traveling Immortals caused Zixuan Supreme Immortal Marshal's heart to flutter. He thought of a possibility, and that was why Di Liu had displayed so many shocking abilities. Even though Di Shi was so powerful, he was still defeated by Di Liu, and even lost his life in the end. That possibility was that Di Liu was a fake, and thus Di Shi made many mistakes in his judgement, allowing Di Liu to seize the initiative and even set up an ambush to kill him … ….
However, having suspicions was one thing, and finding evidence was another!
After all, he was Emperor Liu. Even if he felt that he was a fake, his every move was not to be underestimated!
He had ordered the traveling immortals to continue to investigate, but the traveling immortals who were scattered around the world didn't get any definite news. He also ordered the immortal armies to do everything they could to capture the cultivators of Tianyuan alive, and they succeeded a little. However, these cultivators didn't know about this no matter how hard they tortured them. Immortal General Zi Xuan understood this. If there was really a cultivator of Tianyuan who replaced the Crown Prince, then this news must be a shocking secret in Tianyuan, and not many people would know about it …
If it weren't for the fact that they really couldn't find any Tian Yuan cultivators who knew about this, they wouldn't have used a fake one!
"Haha, it doesn't matter even if we can't find him …"
Immortal General Zi Xuan pondered for a while and chuckled. "If he is a fake, then he must be full of flaws. It's just a matter of whether we can find him or not. We will be able to find him after a few more tests. Unless he is frightened and tries to escape immediately …"
"But if he escapes, then he will definitely fall into my hands!"
"Now, we can only hope that he reveals himself …" Immortal General Zi Xuan sighed softly.
Celestial General Zixuan sighed softly with a helpless expression, "After all, if he's really fake, it would be equivalent to me allowing a fake Thearch's son to kill the True Thearch's son. This sin is too great, and there are too many things that need to be remedied …"
