Chapter 1261: Just Who Are You?
Zhao Chen frowned, his eyes filled with resentment. He stared at them and let out a creepy laughter, Surrender, is it? Ha! Never gonna happen. Once I heal, I will come back for each and every last one of you. The last thing youll see is me, ha-ha-ha
The Sword Emperor sneered, Demonic Emperor, we have you surrounded and you still think of fleeing? Just hand over the cultivation method you got from the Nether Sea and we can forget about this
Cultivation method? I just knew it. The only reason all of you got together is over something to gain, just like last time.
Zhao Chen shook his head, Well too bad. Im not my master, and you wont ever catch me, ha-ha-ha
Zhao Chen released black energy as he laughed.
The Sword Emperor made a sign and cut with his finger, You wont get the chance to flee!
Whoosh~
A blinding white light flashed across the sky, severing the black energy. They watched as it revealed no one inside. Zhao Chen was gone just like that.
What just happened?
The Sword Emperor stared hard at Zhuo Fan, Steward Zhuo, youre of a brilliant mind and have been by the Demonic Emperors side the longest. What was that?
Zhuo Fan frowned, The Demonic Emperor mustve had an escape ready outside of my knowledge. Whats certain is that his act was a distraction. He cant just vanish. There must be a tunnel around here somewhere.
Yes, Steward Zhuo is right! Find it!
The Sword Emperor shouted and everyone began searching. Zhuo Fan looked around as well.
It took them a whole six hours before the Enchanting Empress cried in excitement, Come quick! I found it!
In a hidden bush, a deep hole was hidden.
Ill take the lead, you follow.
The Sword Emperor went on without fear, but Zhuo Fan raised a hand.
He said, Dont bother. Hes been gone for six hours. We wont catch him.
We at least have a trail now.
You think hed leave a clue behind after what happened to him? Zhuo Fan raised an eyebrow.
The others frowned, looking dark. The Wraith Emperor said, The Demonic Emperor has to die before he gets us instead!
The others hearts sank.
One had to be ruthless to remove all needless trouble, especially with such a powerful expert around. He had to be removed at once.
Steward Zhuo, what do you think? Zhao Chen is sure to take his first revenge on you! The Enchanting Empress asked.
The other turned to him.
Zhuo Fan used his smarts to get the Eight Emperors to respect him. His opinion mattered.
Zhuo Fan smiled, He cant run anyway.
What does that mean?
We cant use this tunnel to find him, but think of his situation. With him badly wounded, no matter how well he hides his tracks, hell need to heal. And with his cultivation method, he needs
People!
The Enchanting Empress lit up, We just need to keep a close eye on the people in every area. The moment many are missing, then thats where he must be.
Zhuo Fan nodded, Thats the idea.
They all nodded with smiles.
[Steward Zhuo is brilliant. Its good hes weak, or hed be the strongest among us, with none his match.]
Lets split up and search while paying attention to the population. The Sword Emperor proposed and the others agreed, scattering.
Only Zhuo Fan was left behind with a smirk
A strict inspection began across the Eight Emperors lands. With Zhao Chen missing and the five Emperors support, Zhuo Fan took over all of Demonic Emperors lands affairs. Every elite of the Luo clan got sent to grab all the power, taking it over.
All now listened to Zhuo Fans orders.
A month went by in peace, when shocking news came from the border between the Demonic Emperor and Enchanting Empress lands.
A whole city was gone.
The five Emperors shuddered and rushed to inspect. Zhuo Fan was going someplace else
Rustle~
Five miles from Devil Mountain, in a valley overgrown with fauna, a frail figure struggled to walk through the damp forest with shaky steps, barely reaching a cave.
The man shook the water off him and took a deep breath in excitement. His gaunt finger rubbed a ring, filled with satisfaction.
I just knew youd come here.
The man shuddered at the voice, looking forward to seeing someone leaning on the cave wall and enjoying tea, Zhuo Fan?
Yes, Demonic Emperor sir. Zhuo Fan sneered.
The gaunt figures messy hair blew to the side and revealed a raging expression. He was looking far thinner now, but with a thicker black energy around him, just like a monster.
How did you find me? I left no trace to this hideout.
Easy.
Zhuo Fan smiled, Didnt you use to come here in your younger days? Youd start crying after every beating you got, hiding from the world. Yet someone was always by your side.
Zhao Chen gasped in fright, H-how do you know about that?
Zhuo Fan smiled and sipped his tea.
Zhao Chen grew dark then mocked, Steward Zhuo, youre alone?
Why yes, have you seen anyone around here?
Ha-ha-ha, how ridiculous. Where did your crafty mind go? You actually came alone to find me? Youre nothing but a bug. You found me but now youll die here.
Do I need to tell anyone? You cant kill me, ha-ha-ha Zhuo Fan said.
Zhao Chen gnashed his teeth, I cant? Humph, I kept you alive for so long because of your talent. But now youll pay for your betrayal!
Devil Palm!
Zhao Chen struck with a ten meter large black palm. The eerie pressure bore on Zhuo Fan, making the entire cave tremble along with the mountain.
Zhuo Fan merely waved it off.
Whoosh~
The black palm vanished.
Zhao Chen jerked and the black dragon came out this time, his Imperial Mark.
Zhuo Fan flicked.
With a muffled sound, the dragon was sent flying into Zhao Chen and forcing the latter a dozen steps back. He coughed blood and shuddered from the wounds.
H-how? Y-youre at Qi Condensation Stage!
Wrong, Im at peak Emperor stage, like you.
Zhuo Fan sipped his tea.
Zhao Chens eye twitched, Peak Emperor no! Theres no way you could disregard my attack if that were so. Im one of the mighty Eight Emperors!
Zhuo Fan snickered, But since you asked instead, Ill tell you. Be it the Wraith Art or Devil Palm, they all stem from my teaching you. Breaking them cant be easier.
Zhao Chens mind shuddered, looking at Zhuo Fan like he saw a ghost, W-who the hell are you?
