"Keke! Devil King Xue River! You … can't kill me … hahaha! "
Though Heavenly Dragon True Emperor was still as arrogant and demonic as ever, the dark flames around him were no longer as strong. His aura was weak and there was a hint of dread in his eyes.
Martial Monarch stood guard next to Heavenly Dragon True Emperor while glaring at Devil King Xue River in the distance. He cupped his fist again and said: "She didn't mean to offend you, please show mercy."
On the other side.
Devil King Xue River's cold face remained emotionless, seemingly in no rush to kill Heavenly Dragon True Emperor. "She won't live." He casually replied.
This sentence was the same as sentencing Heavenly Dragon True Emperor to death. Martial Monarch was caught between a rock and a hard place.
To tell the truth …
If Devil King Xue River wanted to kill Heavenly Dragon True Emperor today, he wouldn't be too worried.
He and Heavenly Dragon True Emperor were yin and yang, coexisting in life and death. Thus, the death of Heavenly Dragon True Emperor would affect him to a certain extent.
However, this was only a clone. Even if Devil King Xue River killed it, it wouldn't affect him too much.
What worried him the most was that Devil King Xue River's goal wasn't as simple as killing Heavenly Dragon True Emperor.
He tried to think about it.
If Devil King Xue River didn't just want to kill Heavenly Dragon True Emperor's clone, what was his goal?
Was it to force Heavenly Dragon True Emperor out?
That was impossible in Martial Monarch's mind.
At the end of the day, this was only a clone, one of many. Losing one was nothing to Heavenly Dragon True Emperor. Losing a clone would hurt the real body but that was it.
The emperor's true body wouldn't appear for a mere avatar.
Not to mention that he didn't care about this avatar at all, even if he did, he wouldn't show himself in order to protect it.
The reason was simple.
He knew that Heavenly Dragon True Emperor's real body wasn't in the Kan Palace or even the Ancient Desolate Nine Palaces.
Given Devil King Xue River's abilities, there was no way he didn't know this.
If he couldn't use a clone to force Heavenly Dragon True Emperor out, then what was his real goal?
Was it to force out the seniors of Profound Paradise?
Martial Monarch had heard of the feud between Devil King Xue River and Profound Paradise. It wasn't impossible for him to force out the seniors of Profound Paradise.
If that was the case, then what was Devil King Xue River's intention?
Could it be that he dared to challenge the seniors of the Mysterious Grotto-heaven with just a mere clone?
Did he have the ability?
Emperor Musashi admitted that Devil Emperor Blood River was very powerful, but to challenge a senior of Mysterious Paradise with just a clone was simply courting death.
Even Devil Emperor Xue He's true body would not be a match for the seniors of the Mysterious Paradise, let alone an incarnation.
If Devil Emperor Xue He was really so powerful, with his grudge with Mysterious Paradise, Mysterious Paradise would have been destroyed by him long ago. How could it become the leader of the 36 Paradises?
Was the Great Sun Emperor powerful or not? Known as the overlord of the immortal dao, he had many experts under his command.
Everyone knew that he wanted to be the master of the immortal dao.
But so what?
Even someone as strong as him didn't dare to act rashly against Profound Paradise.
As long as the elders of the Mysterious Grotto-heaven did not agree, the Great Sun Grand Emperor could only be the overlord of the Immortal Dao. He would never be able to dominate the Immortal Dao of Profound Heaven.
Looking at the Demon Emperor Xuehe standing in the void, the Martial Emperor was very hesitant.
Should he attack?
After witnessing Devil King Xue River's power, Martial Monarch Xue River was even more apprehensive and lacked confidence.
While he was hesitating, he sensed something wrong. It wasn't coming from him but from Celestial Dragon True Emperor.
Their minds were connected. Earlier, he sensed a strange change happening to Heavenly Dragon True Emperor's clone, as if it was being burned by fire. Fen's mind became distorted and his consciousness blurred.
"Ah! ! "
In an instant!
Celestial Dragon True Emperor clutched his head with both hands and screamed in agony.
What happened?
Martial Monarch Xue River didn't know.
"You!"
Heavenly Dragon True Emperor trembled in agony. His face was twisted and his nose was crooked. His eyes bulged as he pointed at Devil King Xue River. "You! That's right! What did you do to me?! Ah! "
Devil Emperor Xue He did not respond. He just stood in the void and watched expressionlessly.
"Xue River! What did you do to her?! "
Martial Monarch Xue River shouted.
"Hah!"
Inexplicable laughter rang out.
Laughter rang out. It was not Devil King Xue He, but Tathagata Sublime, who was sitting cross-legged on the palm of the Giant Divine Buddha. He said, "What an ignorant and foolish little fellow. Just now, I told you that as long as Xue He is willing, it would be easy for him to kill you with his strength.
"Do you really think Xue River won't kill you? No! Killing your clones is meaningless to him, but … "
Changing the topic, Marvelous Rulai continued with a smile, "Refining your consciousness, investigating all of your incarnations, hunting down your true bodies, and understanding the secrets hidden behind your backs is still very meaningful to Blood River."
"It's fine if Devil King Xue River doesn't take action but once he does, blood will flow like a river. Not only will he kill this clone of yours, he'll also kill all of your clones and your true body. That's Devil King Xue River's will. Either he doesn't kill or he'll kill you thoroughly, leaving no chance for survival."
"Xue River, am I right?"
Devil King Xue River ignored Wondrous Rulai's question.
"Ah! Ah! "
Heavenly Dragon True Emperor continued to scream. His mind became more and more distorted as his consciousness blurred. Martial Monarch Xue wanted to stop him but didn't know where to start. The flame burning his emperor was formless and intangible, akin to a mental fire. He didn't know how to suppress it.
The only thing he could do was to send out his divine intents. Alas, the moment he touched Heavenly Dragon True Emperor, his divine intents were instantly ignited by this strange flame.
Martial Monarch Xue pulled back his divine intents right away but it was too late. The strange flame was already burning his mind and consciousness.
"I originally thought that those old fellows from the Mysterious Paradise had nurtured a genius, but now it seems that I overestimated them. You guys are much more stupid than I thought. This flame is called Heavenly Flame, and it's one of the ancestral flames that is equally famous as the Nether Flame. Even I am somewhat afraid of it. You actually recklessly threw your life away. You are truly foolish."
