“If you kill me, what will happen to Empress Zi Wei? Or do you think that you can eliminate Empress Zi Wei by yourself?”
Clang —
The moment the giant saber slashed toward Su Yu, it moved in a different direction and slashed past his shoulder, shooting into the ancient tree behind him.
However, with a splashing sound, the interior of the ancient tree was shredded into pieces by the Saber Qi.
Following the stomping of the ancient tree, it spread in all directions.
Heartless Blade Emperor waved his hand and drew back his huge sword. He stared at Su Yu and said, “What makes you think that I will attack my future sister-in-law?”
Su Yu said indifferently, “Just because you can achieve great things, you don’t care about small things!”
Heartless blade emperor stared at Su Yu for a long time before he suddenly raised his head and laughed. “Hahahaha, I’m starting to like you! Excluding the fact that you make me feel a little unhappy, certain thoughts and methods are very much to my liking!”
“If your cultivation wasn’t too low and your strength was too useless, I would have considered taking you under my wing.”
Su Yu said, “It’s still too early to say this.”
Heartless blade emperor’s gaze froze, “Then tell me, what method do you have to eliminate Empress Zi Wei!”
“It’s very simple, just learn that subduing demonic beast! Catch it by surprise, attack it by surprise!”Su Yu said briefly.
Heartless blade emperor narrowed his eyes slightly. “You want me to sneak attack her? It’s too difficult! She fell for the demon subduing Beast’s trap once, she won’t fall for it a second time!”
Su Yu smiled faintly, his entire body exuding an unfathomable aura.
“The essence of luring people into a trap is never how stupid the prey is, but how perfect the trap is!”
Heartless blade emperor was slightly surprised and said, “Tell me in detail.”
Su Yu pointed at himself and said indifferently, “When you caught me, the culprit who almost killed her and subdued the magical beast, do you think she was more angry than calm, or more rational than impulsive?”
Heartless Blade Emperor’s eyes lit up!
Without a doubt, it was the former!
“Still not enough.”Heartless blade emperor said, “She is already a frightened bird. She might not trust me easily.”
Su Yu said leisurely, “Then, what if you voluntarily hand over your own altar fragment?”
“Then wouldn’t that be self-elimination…”heartless blade emperor said angrily. However, as he spoke, he suddenly stopped and carefully considered this sentence.
After a while, his eyes lit up. He stared at Su Yu and said, “Playing hard to get?”
What he got was a faint smile from Su Yu.
After deducing it in his mind several times, heartless blade emperor felt that this plan was more feasible!
If everything went smoothly, the possibility of him ambushing Empress Zi Wei was extremely high!
Looking at it from another perspective, if he wanted to get all the altar fragments, he would definitely not be able to avoid Empress Zi Wei!
Right now, this might be his only chance!
In that case, not only could Su Yu not be killed, he also had to cooperate well with her.
Of course, after getting rid of Empress Zi Wei, his fate was obvious.
After confirming this plan, heartless blade emperor looked at Su Yu and suddenly felt a trace of fear.
This kid’s cultivation wasn’t that great, but he was extremely accurate in scheming people.
He tried to think from another perspective. If he was Empress Zi Wei, he probably wouldn’t be willing to face such a guy.
A hint of wariness suddenly appeared in his heart. Heartless blade emperor narrowed his eyes and said, “You should have your own purpose, right? Are you going to use my hand to get rid of Empress Zi Wei and then take the opportunity to get rid of me?”
Su Yu said indifferently, “Do you think that my cultivation has any chance of winning in front of you?”
Heartless blade emperor said confidently, “I can crush you with one finger!”
“That’s right! My cultivation doesn’t match my ambition. I know that very well.”Su Yu said frankly, “All I want is to defeat Empress Zi Wei!”
“Why?”Heartless blade emperor asked, “There is no enmity between you and her. Why do you want to defeat her?”
Su Yu paused and said, “Because I once pursued Empress Zi Wei and was deeply humiliated by her! From that moment on, I swore that she would regret it sooner or later!”
“So…”Su Yu clenched his fists, and his face was full of hatred. “So, I joined forces with Xue Guanyin, and with you, just to eliminate her!”
Hearing this, heartless blade emperor’s mouth opened wide, but he could not question it.
Because this reason was too legitimate!
Empress Zi Wei was magnificent!
With her beautiful appearance, any woman who claimed to be beautiful would feel inferior in front of her.
She had unparalleled talent. She was only in her early twenties and was already a gold overlord. Moreover, she was an outstanding person at that level!
She had an unattainable background and was the successor of the Snow Dragon Emperor. This identity was enough to make all the women incomparable!
Who would not be tempted by such a perfect woman?
There were countless people who pursued her!
Not only were there young elites of the current generation, there were also many famous old monsters who had visited her in admiration.
There were too many people like Su Yu who had been mercilessly rejected and even ridiculed!
Including heartless blade emperor himself, he had once secretly asked her for love.
In the end, Empress Zi Wei had directly rejected him when she said, “Reincarnate again.”.
Later on, Empress Zi Wei was engaged to his elder brother, the limitless sword saint. This was something that heartless blade emperor was still brooding over.
When he heard that Su Yu had also been rejected before, not only did he not suspect anything, he even felt that they were in the same boat.
He patted Su Yu’s shoulder. “It’s been hard on you. You actually managed to do this!”
All these years, how many people had been mocked by the prideful Empress Zi Wei?
There were even more people who wanted to avenge their past humiliation and take revenge on her!
However, there was no one else who had truly done this except Su Yu.
Su Yu thought for a moment and took out five altar fragments. He handed them over to heartless blade emperor and said, “I’ll leave them all to you. I hope you can help me and avenge my past humiliation!”
Heartless blade emperor completely trusted Su Yu.
If he was willing to give all the altar fragments to him, what was there to distrust?
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely help you!”Heartless Blade Emperor was starting to sympathize with this fellow.
Su Yu nodded. “I’ll leave everything to You!”
The two of them stared at the swamp below them. The ripples from the battle continued for a long time.
Finally, a light reprimand pierced through the swamp and soared into the sky!
“Glacial Feast!”
A large area of cold air surged out from the depths of the swamp!
The churning swamp instantly froze into ice. Tens of millions of miles of land became a frozen world.
Mountains, vegetation, and even some of the gold-tier demon overlords were instantly frozen.
The area of tens of millions of kilometers became a silent country of ice and snow.
Kacha —
Under the frozen swamp, the ice suddenly shattered. An arrogant woman covered in cold air broke out of the ice.
Her entire body was covered in wounds, especially her abdomen and back. She was pierced by four sharp objects.
Black divine blood kept flowing out of the wounds, giving off a fishy smell and poison, making her injuries more serious.
Under Empress Zi Wei’s cold face, she was suppressing her anger.
In her right palm, she was holding a bloody head!
Even the demon subduing beast was no match for Empress Zi Wei!
It was not unexpected at all.
Her strength was hard to measure with her cultivation.
Puff —
Empress Zi Wei clenched her palm and crushed the head of the demon subduing beast!
Heartless blade emperor was deeply in awe. He coughed dryly and said, “Empress Zi Wei.”
Empress Zi Wei looked over coldly. Her eyes were cold and there was a hint of killing intent in them. She said coldly, “Why are you here?”
There was a questioning tone in her words.
Heartless blade emperor pretended to be calm and said, “It’s hard for me not to sense such a big movement here.”
Empress Zi Wei agreed with him. Seeing that he was holding someone in his hands, she said coldly, “Su Yu? Why did you catch him?”
What she meant was that he could just take away his altar fragment!
“When I came here, I saw this kid acting sneakily. HMM, he even ambushed and eliminated Xue Guanyin!”Heartless Blade Emperor said according to the script.
HMM? Empress Zi Wei’s eyes narrowed. “He eliminated Xue Guanyin? is that possible?”
Heartless blade emperor said, “Of course not with his cultivation, but I saw with my own eyes that the two of them were having a good discussion. They were talking and laughing, and suddenly, this kid succeeded in his Sneak Attack!”
Hearing the key point, Empress Zi Wei’s expression turned cold.
“You mean, he was talking and laughing with Xue Guanyin?”
Heartless blade emperor nodded. “Yes! It seems that they had a good relationship before this!”
Empress Zi Wei sized up Su Yu and said coldly, “So, you’re the one who saved Xue Guanyin?”
“It wasn’t me! I didn’t!”Su Yu quickly defended himself.
“HMPH!”Heartless blade emperor sneered. “No need to hide it. I heard everything. It was all your plan. You were the one who lured out the demon subduing beast! Xue Guanyin was just following your orders!”
Crack —
A terrifying cold air came at him!
Empress Zi Wei glared at Su Yu. “No wonder. I was wondering why Xue Guanyin suddenly became resourceful. It turns out that an expert was guiding him from behind!”
“Good! Very good!”Empress Zi Wei said coldly. “Heartless blade emperor, leave him here. You Can Leave Now!”
Heartless Blade Emperor thought to himself. As expected, Empress Zi Wei was on guard against him!
“Since he dared to plot against you, of course you have to deal with him!”Heartless Blade Emperor took out another altar fragment and threw it over to Su Yu. He said, “This is the altar fragment I found on him. I’ll give it to you!”
Taking the altar fragment, Empress Zi Wei’s expression softened slightly. She said, “I’ll remember this in my heart.”
With that, she reached out to grab Su Yu.
However, halfway through, yin and yang energy suddenly appeared above Su Yu’s head, and he teleported away.
Heartless Blade Emperor was shocked. “I sealed his divine power!”
Empress Zi Wei didn’t expect this either. Her beautiful face was filled with coldness. She said coldly, “Yin and Yang teleportation?”
“It’s all my fault. I didn’t completely lock him up.”Heartless Blade Emperor said in frustration.
Empress Zi Wei said, “It’s not your fault. This person has a strange technique. It’s indeed hard to guess.”
“Wait here. I’ll go and catch him!”Empress Zi Wei rose into the air.
Heartless blade emperor said, “Wait, I’ll go too! This person dares to be so disrespectful to you. As the younger brother of the limitless sword saint, I can’t allow him to escape just like that.”
Empress Zi Wei hesitated for a moment. She weighed the bulging altar fragment in her sleeve and nodded. “Alright! Follow behind me!”
The two of them chased after Su Yu.
How could Su Yu escape the pursuit of the two gold overlords?
Not long after, Empress Zi Wei and ruthless blade emperor caught up to Su Yu.
Empress Zi Wei’s expression was cold. She stared at him and said coldly, “How does it feel to scheme against people?”
The pain from the wounds on her body and the danger in the swamp made it hard for Empress Zi Wei to calm down. Countless ways to torture Su Yu were projected in her mind!
Unexpectedly, Su Yu turned around. There was no nervousness on his face. Instead, he was calm.
His eyes were filled with a smile that was not a smile. “The taste of scheming against people is very good! I want to try again!”
