Chapter 720: Chapter 739: Deceive the Heavens to Cross the Sea (Four Updates)
Huang Mozhi, the direct disciple of Emperor Fengdu, had appeared before them, and even more, he perford a grand salutation to Ye Xuan, how could they believe this?
“Sir, how well do you think Fat Huang has perford in this act?”
Huang Mozhi, no, he should be called Fat Huang, was now smiling obsequiously, and when he flipped his hand, sothing appeared out of nowhere—it was the Hongng Purple Qi, which even a Quasi-Saint yearned for.
“Haha, if we talk about the most capable subordinate I’ve had these past hundred thousand years, it would certainly be you, Fat Huang. You truly did not disappoint .”
Ye Xuan laughed heartily, taking the Hongng Purple Qi in his hand. Even Ye Xuan, who was normally unflappable, was extrely excited at this mont, his body trembling intensely, showcasing the extent of his excitent.
“They are truly foolish, thinking that sealing off their subordinate’s cultivation would solve everything. Unfortunately, they didn’t know that back when your subordinate was a mortal, I was extrely proficient in the arts and crafts of the Mortal World, so even without my cultivation, I could give the purple stone to anyone I wanted.”
Fat Huang chuckled mischievously, his face showing a sycophantic look and a smug expression; it was clear that manipulating a group of Quasi-Saints had given him a great sense of vanity.
“Well done, you did not disappoint either. Unfortunately, from now on, you cannot stay by that old Fengdu’s side anymore. But acquiring the Hongng Purple Qi is not too bad a compensation,” Ye Xuan said with a hearty laugh.
“Heaven… Heavenly Emperor… what… what is happening?” Kunpeng blurted out, clearly still overwheld by shock, not understanding what was going on.
“Let introduce you, this is Fat Huang, my most capable subordinate. In the past, I had him placed in the Underworld, and he was even taken as a direct disciple by Fengdu. Little did that Emperor Fengdu know that he was my man.” Having obtained the Hongng Purple Qi, Ye Xuan was in an excellent mood and directly revealed Fat Huang’s identity to the two.
“But… but why is the Hongng Purple Qi in Daoist Huang’s hands?” Kong Xuan exclaid in astonishnt.
“Senior Kong Xuan, let explain,” said Fat Huang with a slight smile, and he began to narrate the events.
As it turned out, when the Hongng Purple Qi appeared, Ye Xuan secretly transmitted a ssage to Fat Huang, instructing him to act according to the circumstances and seize the Hongng Purple Qi if the opportunity arose.
Of course, Ye Xuan didn’t pin all his hopes on Fat Huang, as after all, Fat Huang only possessed Daluo Cultivation and couldn’t possibly participate in the competition for the Quasi-Saints.
However, he never expected that in the end, the ownership of the Hongng Purple Qi would be determined by drawing lots, giving Fat Huang a perfect opportunity.
Fat Huang, not being from the Earth Immortal Realm and having followed Ye Xuan since his mortal days, had seen much of the wickedness in human hearts. His character was insidious and ruthless. Although he wasn’t keen on cultivation, he was extrely skilled in various minor arts, and that’s why Ye Xuan valued him.
A simple mortal trick directly fooled everyone, and the various Quasi-Saints couldn’t use their cultivation to check it, so naturally, they did not realize that Fat Huang had already tampered with the draw bag.
Moreover, Ye Xuan and Fat Huang didn’t need to transmit ssages, just a look was enough to understand each other’s intentions, which was a tacit understanding developed over many years.
Under Ye Xuan’s suggestive gaze, Fat Huang let Emperor Fengdu draw the purple stone, that was how the draw went.
As for why the Hongng Purple Qi ended up in Fat Huang’s hands, the reason was very simple.
Emperor Fengdu wasn’t stupid; he rushed away with Fat Huang—how could he not have anticipated that other Quasi-Saints would try to intercept him?
Since Fat Huang was his direct disciple, even though the Hongng Purple Qi was crucial, the various Quasi-Saints would surely keep close watch on him, so it only made sense for him to entrust the Hongng Purple Qi to Fat Huang for safekeeping and bring it back to the Underworld.
As Fat Huang left with the Hongng Purple Qi, Emperor Fengdu was indeed ambushed and blocked by Emperor Jun and others; they were still fighting fiercely at this mont.
Little did Emperor Fengdu expect that his direct disciple, Huang Mozhi, was actually Ye Xuan’s man, and everything had been calculated by Ye Xuan and Fat Huang. Once he found out the truth, Emperor Fengdu’s Three Corpse Gods would surely burst in fury, and he would hate Fat Huang and Ye Xuan to death.
After Fat Huang finished narrating the whole story, Kunpeng and Kong Xuan were already dumbfounded, taking a good while to recover, but they looked at Ye Xuan with extrely complex expressions.
Terrifying, too terrifying, unimaginably terrifying.
The two had never imagined that Ye Xuan’s scheming could be so profound, playing the various Quasi-Saints at will, and even acquiring the unimaginable treasure, the Hongng Purple Qi.
“I am truly impressed, truly impressed!”
Kunpeng bowed deeply, feeling genuine reverence for Ye Xuan. He felt profoundly fortunate in his heart that he had chosen to follow Ye Xuan; had he really returned to the Ancient Demon Court, with Ye Xuan’s tactics, his future would surely have had no place for his burial.
“Haha, my worthy brother, I am convinced by you,” Kong Xuan laughed loudly, admiration also evident in his eyes.
“The Hongng Purple Qi is the key to becoming a Saint, how could I really give it up?” Ye Xuan said with a slight smile.
With Ye Xuan obtaining the Hongng Purple Qi and Huang Mozhi returning, the two Quasi-Saints admired him deeply. Ye Xuan could be said to have won a complete victory, and at this mont all four of them were in high spirits.
“Daoist, your strategy of deceiving the heavens truly is a masterful tactic, I am impressed,” said Lu Ya, stepping out of the void with a calm gaze fixed on Ye Kunpeng’s change in color was drastic as demon light burst forth in black and white, an extrely terrifying power unleashed, looking at Lu Ya with a very solemn expression.
“Lu Ya, you should not have appeared.”
Kong Xuan’s eyes were cold, and the Five-Colored Divine Light rippled out. He had not expected Lu Ya to appear before them. Hadn’t all their actions been exposed to Lu Ya’s eyes?
At this mont, Ye Xuan’s eyes slightly narrowed, and the smile on his face had also disappeared. He had not expected that his ploy of deceiving the heavens would be seen through by Lu Ya, allowing him to follow them here.
“You want to kill ?”
Lu Ya smiled slightly as he walked toward Ye Xuan and the others, his body devoid of any aura, instead giving Ye Xuan a nodding smile.
“Step back.”
Suddenly, Ye Xuan spoke softly, making Kunpeng and Kong Xuan pause, but they still retracted their murderous intent, only looking towards Daoist Lu Ya with very unfriendly eyes, and with a hint of seriousness.
It is known that Daoist Lu Ya had extrely high Cultivation, and within the Quasi-Saints, he was not easy to provoke. With the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber in his hand, which had just recently killed a Quasi-Saint, even if the three combined forces, they might not be able to detain him. If Lu Ya were to spread the news of Ye Xuan obtaining the Hongng Purple Qi, it would certainly bring an unimaginable great calamity upon Ye Xuan.
Clap—clap—clap.
Ye Xuan softly clapped his hands, his eyes looking blandly towards Lu Ya as he said, “Daoist, you truly are extraordinary, to have seen through this Emperor’s tactics.”
“Haha.”
Lu Ya laughed out loudly, “Heavenly Emperor Ye jests; actually, I had not seen through your tactics. It’s just that I was very curious, Emperor Jun and others were going to intercept Daoist Fengdu for the Hongng Purple Qi, why did you, Heavenly Emperor Ye, not regard the Hongng Purple Qi as worthy? That made follow you all the way here, wanting to see what secret you had hidden.”
“And have you seen it now?”
Ye Xuan slowly rose to his feet, his face always adorned with a gentle smile, but this part of the world was gradually darkening, a terrifyingly formidable aura locking onto Lu Ya, and tightly sealing this part of Heaven and Earth.
