Xu Fengqiu had his arm cut off by Li Shuang'er.
It hurt, quite a bit.
But Xu Fengqiu was able to endure it.
With his immortal body, Xu Fengqiu could easily regrow his arm.
Moreover, due to his immortality, Xu Fengqiu was more accustomed to pain.
From the perspective of the Heavenly Profound Emperor, Xu Fengqiu was undoubtedly dead.
Li Shuang'er's sword severing Xu Fengqiu's arm only reinforced this belief in the Heavenly Profound Emperor.
This was something Xu Fengqiu had discussed with Li Shuang'er beforehand.
It wasn't that he could predict the Heavenly Profound Emperor would do this.
But if such an opportunity arose, it would definitely lull the Heavenly Profound Emperor into a false sense of security.
"Hahaha! Good! Excellent!!"
The Heavenly Profound Emperor burst into laughter.
It had been years since he felt this happy.
"Well done! Absolutely brilliant!"
Li Shuang'er then asked indifferently, "Now, I shall return."
"Hold on, hold on!"
The Heavenly Profound Emperor quickly interjected.
"Speak."
The Heavenly Profound Emperor said, "The thing is, Xu Fengqiu possesses some treasures that we are quite interested in. Could you bring Xu Fengqiu's body here?"
Li Shuang'er: "The Law of Power is naturally not something I can give to Your Excellency."
"The Law of Power is yours, of course. I want something else, like the World Cleansing Sacred Lotus Flame or the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning."
Of course, there was also the Game of Life and Death, the Supreme Bone, and other heaven-defying abilities Xu Fengqiu had displayed, which were most likely due to spiritual artifacts.
The Heavenly Profound Emperor reminded, "Although these are all top-tier items, to be honest, the noble clans don't have much use for them. Most importantly, if such items fall into the hands of the noble clans and are later revealed, everyone will know that Xu Fengqiu was killed by you. But in my hands, the world already knows of my grievances with Xu Fengqiu, it's reasonable and no one will say anything."
"Very well, I will leave Xu Fengqiu's corpse at Shili Slope. You can come in an hour," Li Shuang'er said.
"Shili Slope? How about I suggest a place?"
Li Shuang'er: "My task is complete. This is something I'm doing on the way back, so I will naturally consider my own convenience. Come if you want, if not, I'll take it away."
"No, no, no, Shili Slope it is. I'll be there in an hour."
"Mm."
With that, the image disappeared.
After the image disappeared.
Xu Fengqiu opened his eyes.
Li Shuang'er was still wondering what to do about Xu Fengqiu's arm.
Then, she watched in disbelief as Xu Fengqiu's arm grew back, perfectly intact.
Li Shuang'er: "…"
"Immortality?"
She looked at Xu Fengqiu in astonishment.
"You know quite a bit," Xu Fengqiu said.
Li Shuang'er: "Immortality is too easily recognizable."
Xu Fengqiu then said, "Alright, you can go back now. Leave the rest to me."
"Okay! You… be careful."
Xu Fengqiu smiled: "Mm."
With that, Li Shuang'er also left successfully, heading back to her clan.
And what Xu Fengqiu had to do next was very simple.
Just wait for the prey to take the bait.
Xu Fengqiu's plan wasn't for anything else, but to kill.
To kill the Heavenly Profound Emperor, Wan Yannian, and Mo Wenfeng.
Killing them was actually of great significance.
To disrupt the morale of the army and make a name for himself.
Especially the Heavenly Profound Emperor.
If this emperor died, coupled with the previous heavy losses,
His imperial family would directly fall into decline.
The other two great divine-level forces would also be in deep trouble.
They all wanted to kill him, Xu Fengqiu, so let's see who the real prey is.
…
At this moment, the Heavenly Profound Emperor was also preparing to leave.
He initially considered whether to call Mo Wenfeng and Wan Yannian.
But on second thought.
Was there any need?
What was the point of calling them over?
Anyway, Xu Fengqiu was already dead.
Let them come and share the top-tier treasures on Xu Fengqiu's body with him?
What a joke!
How was that possible!
Therefore, the Heavenly Profound Emperor would definitely go alone.
However, to be on the safe side, he still brought along a ninth-level Immortal Emperor.
And this ninth-level Immortal Emperor was one of the people the Heavenly Profound Emperor trusted the most.
He didn't dare bring Supreme Immortal Emperors or others.
The World Cleansing Sacred Lotus Flame, the Game of Life and Death, and other heaven-defying treasures on Xu Fengqiu's body.
To be honest, there weren't many things in this world that could greatly enhance an Immortal Emperor.
But everything on Xu Fengqiu was a huge boost.
Tell me, if you bring an unstable powerhouse, is that really a good idea?
What if he couldn't resist the temptation?
So…
The Heavenly Profound Emperor suddenly thought of something.
No!
He couldn't bring the powerhouse he was on good terms with either.
He could just go alone.
If he brought the powerhouse he was on good terms with, wouldn't he have to give him something?
Of course, he would have to give him something.
He would definitely have to pick one of the best, such as the Game of Life and Death, the World Cleansing Sacred Lotus Flame, the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning, or the Supreme Bone.
But, the Heavenly Profound Emperor had already suffered such great losses, he really didn't want to give anything to others.
Any one of these things would be an incredibly heaven-defying boost for him.
"Then I won't bring anyone."
The Heavenly Profound Emperor muttered to himself.
He could do it alone.
And Xu Fengqiu was already dead.
There shouldn't be any accidents, right?
Actually, the Heavenly Profound Emperor was just afraid of accidents, so he was thinking about whether or not to bring someone.
But on second thought, unless he brought a lot of people, what was the point of bringing one or two people?
Wasn't it the same as going alone?
Then just one person.
Then, the Heavenly Profound Emperor concealed his presence and quietly left the imperial palace.
…
Shili Slope.
This was a place belonging to the demon race.
It wasn't too far from the human race.
But usually not many people came here.
Especially now, in the dead of night.
The Heavenly Profound Emperor arrived here.
Shili Slope wasn't big, so it wasn't difficult to find someone.
Especially for a powerhouse like the Heavenly Profound Emperor.
Moreover, there weren't any powerful demon beasts here usually.
They were all just small animals and ordinary demon beasts.
Xu Fengqiu had been killed, and based on the realm of these demon beasts here, even if Xu Fengqiu's corpse was here, they wouldn't be able to cause any damage.
Because after all, Xu Fengqiu's physique was still that of an Immortal Emperor.
"There shouldn't be any accidents, right?"
The Heavenly Profound Emperor was a naturally suspicious person.
Therefore, he was very cautious.
Even in this situation, he was still worried, would there be any unknown accidents?
Like Xu Fengqiu not being dead?
Feigning death?
After all, to be honest, he felt that Xu Fengqiu being killed was somewhat unreal.
But on second thought, the possibility wasn't high.
Xu Fengqiu's death was so easy, although it was unreal, it was reasonable.
He, Xu Fengqiu, was ultimately limited by his age, he wasn't a saint, nor was he invincible.
Yes, he could be very powerful in other aspects, but who doesn't have flaws?
Moreover, in the image, it was very clear that Xu Fengqiu was already dead.
And he had even had an arm cut off.
