At this moment, a peculiar Emperor, clinging to the stone wall, opened his eyes and hoarsely exclaimed, “Jian Wushuang is with me. Hurry, bring people!”

The reason these individuals had come to this place was for Jian Wushuang. Killing these people was merely a ploy to create chaos.

Upon receiving the message, everyone gathered towards the source, and soon, five tier 6 Emperors had descended.

“Jian Wushuang!”

“Gong Miaoyi!”

The three had just converged and found themselves besieged within the mining cave. Fortunately, there was only one exit, allowing passage for a single person. They were merely blocked, nothing more.

Nie Yuan stared at Gong Miaoyi, gazing foolishly. The myriad of words he had prepared in his heart was on the tip of his tongue, yet he hesitated on how to articulate them.

It wasn’t until Gong Miaoyi spoke first, gently saying, “Father!”

Father and daughter embraced!

Everything was understood without words.

Jian Wushuang glanced over, tactfully blocking the gap and temporarily halting the opponent’s advance.

At the same time, he communicated with Wu Zuo.

“Has Fuego appeared yet?”

Relying solely on these people, capturing him would be easy. However, this was a mine!

It housed numerous powerful beings, and elders from the Elder Palace were rushing in large numbers. Even if they captured him, it would be challenging to escape unscathed.

Wu Zuo was also anxious, replying through mental communication, “Not yet!”

Their target was Fuego, not these ordinary Emperors. Even if they captured the three supreme-peak beings, it would not significantly impact them.

“Jian Wushuang, how about you pretend to surrender first, leave with these people. I don’t think Fuego intends to come. We might as well take a step further. Maybe by then, we’ll be able to see Fuego. Rest assured, as long as Fuego appears, Zhen Ling will personally intervene. By then, no one will be able to threaten you!”

Jian Wushuang furrowed his brow. Wasn’t this just nonsense?

If he advanced any further, it would truly be an irreversible calamity. Moreover, he couldn’t entirely trust Zhen Ling. If Zhen Ling had such great abilities, how could they fail to locate a crippled Universe Master in their own lair?

But now, he was caught in a dilemma and had no other option but to follow Wu Zuo’s instructions.

“Brother Wu Zuo, don’t play jokes on me at this critical moment. If I go with them and Shen Ling doesn’t show up, you’ll be fully responsible for everything!” Jian Wushuang bluntly stated, putting pressure on Wu Zuo.

It was also for his own consideration.

Wu Zuo gritted his teeth and reluctantly agreed.

This time, both of them not only staked their futures but also their lives.

Jian Wushuang would be fine, Shen Ling had caught him, and at most, they would utilize him without posing a threat to his life. Wu Zuo, on the other hand, was different. If the plan failed, Zhen Ling wouldn’t spare him.

Perhaps, he would end up suffering in the Second Prison.

Boom!

While conversing with Wu Zuo, a formidable force pierced through Jian Wushuang’s chest.

The force penetrated his divine body, shattering the 50,000-fold divine body.

The Origin Source trembled. The opponent’s strength was undoubtedly the pinnacle among the tier 6 Emperors, probably not inferior to the Lord of the Turtle Spirit Island in the Earth Realm.

This time, Jian Wushuang didn’t destroy his Origin Source.

With just one strike, he was sent flying and crashed into the stone wall.

Nie Yuan, now understanding that it wasn’t the time for father-daughter sentiments, promptly stood in front of Gong Miaoyi.

This made Jian Wushuang feel awkward. Despite the hidden conspiracy behind him, at least on the surface, he was saving this father-daughter duo. Couldn’t they give him some face?

Even if he was outmatched, he could at least make a show of it!

“Everyone, I’ll go with you…” Jian Wushuang struggled to free himself from the stone wall, his body incredibly weak from the severe injuries he had sustained.

At the entrance of the cave, a figure cloaked in blood-red emerged, bathed in flames.

The aura emanating from the figure was terrifying.

This person was at the supreme-peak!

Jian Wushuang’s eye sockets contracted.

Originally, he thought it was a tier 6 Emperor, but unexpectedly, it was a supreme-peak powerhouse.

It seemed that this supreme-peak expert was afraid of killing him with a single blow, so he suppressed his strength when attacking.

“All personnel gather at the designated location. I have captured Jian Wushuang!”

Phew!

Jian Wushuang covered his chest, breathing heavily. Then he turned to look at Gong Miaoyi and Nie Yuan, saying, “Surrender, we are not opponents!”

Nie Yuan had no objections to this, as he knew the plan.

But Gong Miaoyi was different.

At this moment, she took the initiative to step forward, respectfully kneeling and speaking firmly, “Junior Gong Miaoyi, Lord Shen Ling had promised…”

Before she could finish speaking, the supreme-peak expert instantly made a move. A flame rushed to Gong Miaoyi’s side in an instant, and the power of that flame was enough to incinerate heaven and earth, extremely terrifying.

Even the Space Fire Abyssal Stone was melting.

Nie Yuan reacted quickly, instantly standing in front of Gong Miaoyi, blocking the flames.

When Gong Miaoyi stepped forward just now, he was very surprised!

This matter was becoming more and more complicated.

Jian Wushuang’s face also darkened. Originally, he was unwilling to believe it, but now the fact was in front of him, and he had to believe it.

Gong Miaoyi had betrayed them.

Although they were using each other, he genuinely wanted to save Nie Yuan. Even if he was captured, he would plead for the other two to be spared. By then, even if they were taken away by the Elder Palace, Wu Zuo, who knew the plan, would not trouble the father and daughter.

Why did have to be like this?!

Jian Wushuang watched coldly, not uttering a word.

He understood Zhen Ling too well. Once Gong Miaoyi was used, she wouldn’t be left alive.

Even Bai Junwang, who had regained his peak, died just like that.

Not to mention someone like Gong Miaoyi—capturing her meant she had no further utility.

Immersed in flames, the supreme-peak expert showed no expression, coldly stating, “Lord Shen Ling did not instruct me to take you away, so you must die!”

Shen Ling only informed them to take Jian Wushuang, kill anyone else they saw, and eliminate Gong Miaoyi.

It was a calamity that could not be left behind.

If Jian Wushuang had truly developed emotions for Gong Miaoyi, perhaps she might have been kept alive. In that case, she could be kept alive to threaten Jian Wushuang later.

However, Jian Wushuang and Gong Miaoyi were mutually exploiting each other.

Therefore, there was no need to keep her alive.

The supreme-peak expert acted directly, without any hesitation.

A snake of fire, like lightning, moved at an incredibly fast speed.

Both Gong Miaoyi and Nie Yuan were tier 5 Emperors. Even if they could unleash the power of a tier 6 Emperor, they couldn’t resist.

Jian Wushuang, standing aside, still felt some reluctance. He threw out a sword, directly intercepting the fire snake.

“Give her a way out!” Jian Wushuang said, “This has nothing to do with her; I’ll go with you!”

The supreme-peak expert was surprised. Clearly, Gong Miaoyi had betrayed Jian Wushuang, yet he was pleading for her.

“She must die!” If the Shen Ling hadn’t commanded, he might have given Jian Wushuang some face. However, Shen Ling explicitly stated to kill Gong Miaoyi, and he would absolutely not hold back.
