I am a living immortal.

Even Su Mu, thousands of miles away, could feel the tremor of this sword strike. The figure's location was completely obliterated, and the entire Yan Dynasty felt the shock to varying degrees.

Fortunately, the vibration stopped in an instant.

Su Mu withdrew her hand and said calmly, "I'm really lucky that I didn't die. I didn't expect that there would be others besides that one. I don't know whether to be happy or sad."

He already knew who the other person was, and he had a rough idea of ​​who he had saved. He wondered if he had acted on his own initiative or personally. Didn't Mirage Dragon say that person was missing? What an honor!

After saying that, he asked Cao Chen if he had found any trace of the other party?

Cao Chen's voice quickly reached Su Mu's ears: "We can't find them. The other party has cut off all connections between us. We can only wait until he reveals himself next time, or force them out again."

"Thank you for your hard work. Although this sword didn't kill the opponent, it at least injures him, and the effect has been achieved. We still have a lot of time, so we can play with them slowly. If he can escape once, I will see who can save him next time."

"But we need to speed up. Judging from their actions, they seem to be stalling for time. I don't know if they are brewing some other plan or..."

Su Mu didn't finish her words, but her eyes were dark and unclear.

The current situation is becoming more and more chaotic.

The town once again returned to peace. Apart from the pharmacy exploding into the sky for unknown reasons, nothing else seemed to have happened. This made the people in the town subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief, although they themselves did not know why they were relieved.

......

“You’re too impulsive.”

"Yes, I didn't expect that person to be so powerful."

"The Emperor of Heaven has long said that we shouldn't provoke them unless necessary. The creatures of this era aren't as weak as you and I imagine. Some have even reached that level. Otherwise, why do you think the Emperor of Heaven watched helplessly as the cave heaven was stolen by these thieves?"

"The Emperor of Heaven..."

"He has no time now; he's seizing the future. But you did a great job this time. You tried your best to delay him in this realm. The later he enters time, the better it will be for us. Don't worry about the gains and losses of this realm, even if it means a complete loss. Our mission is to delay him. Every minute we delay him, we have a better chance of victory."

"I understand. I'll be more careful next time. But why are you here?"

"To save you, you idiot, of course."

“You know, that’s not what I’m asking. Who has made the decision?”

“No, not really, but I made the decision.”

"After all, I was once a member of the Kunlun lineage."

"..."

"..."

The two of them were speechless. They didn't have much of a relationship, and if Kaiming Beast wasn't so important, she wouldn't have wanted to expose herself to that person so quickly. He had only saved Kaiming Beast through some other means. Didn't he see that the area had been wiped out by a single sword strike? They had nearly both perished there.

The Kaiming Beast was crucial, after all, a rare being possessing the power of fate. Predicting and understanding fate would be crucial for the subsequent war. Sima Ming had clearly sided with the creatures of this era, and without the Kaiming Beast, restraining Sima Ming would be difficult.

Now the Emperor of Heaven has gained some advantage in time.

They had to leave no stone unturned. The balance of this war was tilting, and they were the weaker party.

They need time to wait for more innate gods to awaken.

"Can we hold on?" Before, he was very confident, but after seeing that sword, his confidence was shattered like the collapsing sky.

He wasn't stupid enough to think it was chance or luck. He himself was the god who controlled fate, so he wouldn't think the other party couldn't strike a second blow. That was self-deception. The other party had many opportunities to make mistakes, and if they made just one, the sword would fall, slicing them into nothingness. Forget about winning, even the chance of survival was slim.

"have no idea."

"However, Dijiang is about to return. If he joins us, perhaps we can survive. After all, the more chaotic the situation is, the stronger Dijiang will be."

"Look at the bright side. With him standing in front of me, I might be tired after killing you two."

“Heh~”

......

North, Jizhou.

Chen Tao sat down and took a sip of tea. Then, with a loud bang, the ground shook for a moment, causing him to stand up subconsciously.

“What was that noise just now?”

Soon, someone came to report. The momentary tremor wasn't limited to just one street; the entire Jizhou City shook for a moment. Many people said it was a dragon turning over.

Chen Tao breathed a sigh of relief. He'd thought the prince was going to attack. Attacking in broad daylight would be a bit too violent. Fortunately, he was overthinking it.

There had been quite a lot going on lately. They could see that Prince Cheng was planning an opportunity. After all, those shameful things were being done in broad daylight. Didn't they think the incident was big enough?

At this stage, the other party was still very restrained, at least not attracting the attention of the court. However, Chen Tao's idea was completely opposite to the other party's. He wanted to make the matter as big as possible, so that the people in the court would take action.

"Should we give the other party a chance?" said the shopkeeper.

"Isn't that what I'm doing? Let's wait a few days to let people relax their vigilance. Otherwise, how can the fish bite happily?"

"I understand." The shopkeeper nodded.

Just make things bigger.

Prince Cheng's staff had been feeling agitated lately. Prince Cheng intended to eliminate them, but they seemed to have received some information and hadn't left the courtyard for several days. Since the courtyard was in a busy city, they didn't dare to act too blatantly. If this got out of hand, it would be disastrous.

We must find a way to lure the other party to a place where there is no one.

Soon a plan formed in his mind. So he called the servant, whispered something in his ear, and asked him to do it.

Meanwhile, Chen Tao was in high spirits as he listened to the steward's report. It was worth the many days he had spent in the courtyard.

"The other party meant there was room for negotiation, but it was more of an excuse."

"It's okay. Since the other party wants to talk, you should play along. You can't try to get something for nothing. Since the other party uses food as an excuse, you should first deduct some of the share from him. He can't just let us make a trip in vain with empty words, right? Tell him that we are willing to talk, but before that we still have to test his integrity." Chen Tao ordered.
