”Haha, you think I'll talk?”
The leader of the black-clothed men was splayed out on the ground, his mouth full of blood, but he actually turned his body around and smiled at the three.
This leader was unimaginably powerful, but the Demonic Emperor Old Man was his bane. There were forty to fifty small and bloody holes on his back and chest, through which his immense vitality was seeping out. With a single palm, the Demonic Emperor Old Man had obliterated more than half his life force.
”Hmph, that's true. Since that's the case, there's no need to keep you around,” the Demonic Emperor Old Man indifferently said. All of these men in black were incredibly loyal, and it was almost impossible to get anything from interrogating them.
”Heheh, don't get too proud. Even if I die, you lot won't be able to live for long after! It doesn't matter if you're an Emperor, general, minister, or some bigshot from a clan; if we want to kill someone, no one can survive. I was careless this time, and if I hadn't been in such a rush to succeed, burdened with the desire to offer up some contribution, I would not have died here. I'll wait for you down below. You and your disciple will be following me shortly.”
”Impudent!”
The Demonic Emperor Old Man could hardly be bothered to care about the brashness this black-clothed leader showed before death. He brought his foot down, preparing to unleash a destructive burst of energy that would end this person's life.
As the infamous Demonic Emperor of the martial arts world, he had killed countless people and naturally wouldn't care about the threats of one man in black.
”Master, wait!” Wang Chong suddenly yelled.
He slowly walked toward the leader. ”Master, I still have a use for this man in black. Leave him to me!
”Heh, it's not hard if you want to die, and I quite admire your resolve to die, but there are some secrets that can be learned without needing you to speak.”
Wang Chong stared at the man in black.
”You!”
The man instantly grimaced as he thought of something, but before he could speak, bzzzz! A vast tide of Psychic Energy surged through the air and into his mind.
Bzzz! In the blink of an eye, Wang Chong's boundless Psychic Energy was flooding through every channel in the man's mind.
Although Wang Chong was now suffering from cultivation defect, his Psychic Energy had not been affected. His Psychic Energy was already very strong, and after he experienced the Psychic Energy inheritance of the three venerable seniors underground, it had only gotten stronger. As Wang Chong's Psychic Energy burrowed into the man's mind, he quickly encountered a seal.
Boom!
Unlike in the past, Wang Chong simply charged forward, and then there was the sound of a lock clicking open as what was once an impregnable fortress now opened to him.
”Stop!”
The composed man in black finally began to panic and began to try and fight back with his own Psychic Energy. But while his martial arts were of a high level, in terms of Psychic Energy, he was far from reaching Wang Chong's level.
”Milord…”
The gloominess before him burst apart in an explosion of light, and at the same time, Wang Chong heard a voice. This was the first time he had ever obtained any useful information from a high-ranked man in black, so he immediately put in all his focus.
……
Before him was a vast and coarse land, blasted by sandy winds and covered in yellow rocks and gravel. Nearby, he could see vast dunes stretching off into the distance. Wang Chong stood in this world, silently watching everything.
He saw the black-clothed leader, and he also saw a man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, apparently some kind of expert of even higher status. This pair was surrounded by many other men in black who were closely watching the perimeter.
”…That boy is truly very vigilant, and with the metal box he was given, he can sense us from long distances. It will be incredibly difficult to deal with him now. But if we did want to deal with him, we can just do it in the capital. In any case, secular authorities cannot restrain us. So why does Milord insist on drawing him out of the capital before striking?”
The black-clothed leader was down on one knee as he respectfully spoke.
”Now is not the time. With that person in the capital reigning over the Central Plains, we can't act recklessly. All of you are still too weak and can't attract his notice, but once you exceed a certain level, the situation will be entirely different. The capital is heavily garrisoned, and there are countless experts hiding in the shadows. We still have no confidence in dealing with him in that place!” the man wearing the yellow dragon robe said, his hands held behind his back.
Wang Chong felt his mind jolt when he heard these words.
”They're talking about the Sage Emperor!”
The Sage Emperor was the number one man of the Central Plains, but Wang Chong had never imagined that these men in black so dreaded the Sage Emperor.
