"Yes. Now that I've advanced to the Seven Divine Souls, Xue Wudi is no match for me."
Ye Mo nodded.
"Haha, well done," Zhou Tianmo said. "You've killed Xue Wudi, which means you've cut off Ao Cang Wu's right-hand man.
Ye Xiao, you stay. I have something to tell you. "Zhou Tianmo looked at Mu Yulang. Suddenly, a strange look flashed in his eyes as he thought of something.
"You guys must have worked hard," Zhou Tianmo said. "Go and rest. Come back to the Spirit Palace in three days to receive your rewards. Ye Xiao, stay here. I have something to tell you."
Zhou Tianmo said.
Hearing that, the others left the Spirit Clan, but Ye Mo stayed in the Spirit Palace.
"Ye Xiao, I wonder if you've done any research on chess?"
Zhou Tianmo asked.
"I know a thing or two."
Ye Mo nodded. He couldn't help but guess what Zhou Tianmo was thinking. When Zhou Tianmo was young, he played chess with Ye Qing every day to relieve his boredom. Although he wasn't a master, he was still an expert.
"Why don't we play a game?" Zhou Tianmo said. "Chess and cultivation are similar. I learned a martial art while playing chess."
Zhou Tianmo waved his sleeve and a chessboard formed by the Spirit Aura appeared in the air. Ye Mo and Zhou Tianmo stood on both sides of the chessboard.
"Ye Xiao, listen!"
Zhou Tianmo said. "This chessboard uses the Chu River as the boundary. The general is like Ao Cang Wu and the Dead Demon Luo. You and I are the Dead Demon Luo's Xiang. But no matter how hard the Xiang tries, he can't leave the Chu River Han Boundary."
"Deputy Clan Leader, what do you mean?"
Ye Mo's heart skipped a beat. Zhou Tianmo was testing him, but he pretended not to know.
"The Prime Minister cannot leave the Chu River and Han Boundary, nor can he get close to the General because there are soldiers beside the General. The only thing we can do now is to help the General resist the attacks of the other party. However, it is hard to guarantee that one day we will die in the hands of the other party because the General will not care about the life and death of the Prime Minister, only the lives of the soldiers. Once the two soldiers die, the General will be alone."
Ye Mo immediately understood what Zhou Tianmo meant. He meant that no matter how hard he and Zhou Tianmo worked for the Departed Spirit Clan, they wouldn't be valued, because there were still "soldiers" in the commander's group.
"Since I'm a Xiang, I have to protect the general. Deputy Clan Leader, do you want to be the general?"
Ye Mo asked.
"Ha ha, Ye Xiao, if the Patriarch were to hear what you just said, he would probably kill you immediately. Earlier, I was just testing you. It seems that you are absolutely loyal to our Departed Spirit Tribe."
Zhou Tianmo smiled. He wasn't a Xiang, and he didn't want to be the general. He was the chess player, and he controlled the whole game. But how could he know that Ye Mo was also a chess player?
The outcome of this game of chess would depend on who had the better means.
After that, Ye Mo and Zhou Tianmo played three rounds of chess. Ye Mo lost all three rounds. Ye Mo understood that Zhou Tianmo had used his powerful attacks to completely destroy Ye Mo. He wanted to give Ye Mo a warning.
"I've learned a lot from playing three rounds with the Deputy Clan Leader," Ye Mo said. "Since there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
Ye Mo cupped his hands together and left the Death Palace. Ye Mo didn't care about the three losses he had suffered today. It was just a game of chess. When it came to the real chess game of life, he would make sure Zhou Tianmo lost completely.
"Go!"
Zhou Tianmo waved his hand. Seeing Ye Mo leave, a smile appeared on his face. "The person Ye Xiao brought is Mu Yulang, one of the Twelfth Princes. He's from the Lingwu Continent, so Ye Mo must be from the Lingwu Continent. But I want to know what happened. Looks like I'll have to search Tantai Zanglian's memory."
Zhou Tianmo knew the Twelfth Prince of the Dead Spirit Royal Clan like the back of his hand. Mu Yulang was from the Lingwu Continent, so he couldn't escape Zhou Tianmo's eyes.
With a thought, Zhou Tianmo disappeared from the palace and walked toward the Tantai Clan. Just like last time, he used visiting Tantai Qingyi as an excuse to get close to Tantai Zanglian. Once again, he searched Tantai Zanglian's memory.
Immediately, all of Tantai Zanglian's memories were obtained by Zhou Tianmo. A huge amount of information rushed into Zhou Tianmo's mind, shocking him.
"Who would've thought that Ye Xiao would be the Ye Mo who killed the 11 princes in the Dead Martial Realm? And he's the descendant of Dead Qianmo. No wonder his strength increased so quickly. And he even used the Soul Mount Heavenly Lion to possess the body of the Blood Demon Ancestor summoned by Xue Wudi.
"So Ye Mo came to the Dead Spirit Clan to deal with Dead Demon Luo. That's easy. As long as Dead Demon Luo and Ye Mo fight, both of them will be injured. Then I'll join forces with Ao Cangwu to kill both of them. Then I'll betray Ao Cangwu."
Thinking of this, Zhou Tianmo was excited. No one would've thought that the two experts that Ao Cangwu had secretly trained, Leng Shang and Leng Mian, had already become his pawns.
"As long as Dead Demon Luo and Ye Mo are dead, Ao Cangwu will definitely lower his guard against me," Zhou Tianmo said. "At that time, I can join forces with Leng Shang and Leng Mian to attack Ao Cangwu. The Dead Spirit Continent will belong to Zhou Tianmo."
Zhou Tianmo's plan was flawless. As long as he created an opportunity for Ye Mo to sneak an attack on Undead Demon Luo, Ye Mo would definitely attack and kill Undead Demon Luo. Or rather, let Undead Demon Luo kill Ye Mo.
Thinking of this, Zhou Tianmo left the Tantai Clan and began to deploy his plan.
A month later, Zhou Tianmo secretly left the Dead Spirit Clan, because Ao Cangwu, the Spirit Overlord, had finally recovered to his peak strength.
In the main hall of the Dead Spirit Palace of the Dead Spirit Royal Clan, there was only a man in a black robe waiting in the main hall. Then, a majestic figure appeared. As soon as he appeared, a sealed space was formed in the main hall.
"Greetings, Spirit Overlord!" The man in the black robe said. "Congratulations, Spirit Overlord, you've finally recovered to your peak strength.
The day of ruling the Dead Spirit Continent is just around the corner. "
"I heard that Xue Wudi was killed by Ye Mo. What's going on?"
Ao Cangwu was slightly angry. It turned out that he wanted Xue Wudi to kill Ye Mo. But as soon as he came out of seclusion, he heard the news that Xue Wudi had been killed by the Emperor of the Dead Spirit Clan.
"Soul Overlord, don't be angry."
"Spirit Overlord, you only know that Ye Mo killed Xue Wudi, but you don't know that Ye Mo is Dead Qianmo's descendant. He came to the Dead Spirit Continent this time to help Dead Qianmo take back the Dead Spirit Clan."
"What? Ye Mo is Dead Qianmo's descendant? "
Ao Cangwu looked at the man in the black robe. "No wonder his cultivation speed is so fast. I'm afraid he's already obtained all of Dead Qianmo's cultivation."
"Yes," the man in the black robe said. "And he's already revealed his ambition to take back the Dead Spirit Clan. I'm afraid his current strength is no weaker than mine. He also used the Soul Mount Heavenly Lion to possess the body of the Blood Demon Ancestor that Xue Wudi summoned. With him and the Blood Demon Ancestor, even Dead Demon Luo might not be able to deal with him."
The man in the black robe said word by word, a playful look on his face.
"Don't tell me you've already thought of a good way?"
Ao Cangwu put his hands behind his back and smiled. "This Ye Mo still has a lot of room for growth. So, we must kill him immediately. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles in the future. Now that I've recovered to my peak strength, I don't know. If we can make Dead Demon Luo and Ye Mo both suffer, we'll be able to deal with the entire Dead Spirit Clan."
