Annihilation Sword Qi

Lu Ren naturally understood Li Chen's meaning. Li Chen wanted him to make use of the Nine Dragon Martial Emperor, to have the Nine Dragon Martial Emperor make a wedding dress for him and seize the Nine Provinces Origin.

"If I continue following you, the Nine Dragon Martial Emperor will discover your existence sooner or later!"

Li Chen said blandly.

"But..."

Lu Ren hesitated, wanting to speak yet stopping himself.

"Lu Ren, I know what you want to say, but becoming the Nine Dragon Martial Emperor's disciple is your only path to protect yourself, and also your only way to get close to him. Otherwise, sooner or later, you will be schemed against by the King of Hell Hall and by the lineages of the four great sects. Ever since I began following you, I had planned all this. These past few years, I have been sleeping, but in truth, I was condensing an Annihilation Sword Qi to grievously wound the Nine Dragon Martial Emperor!"

A resolute expression appeared on Li Chen's face.

"Senior, must we really use this method?"

Lu Ren could not bear it.

"This is the only opportunity. And if the Ghost Emperor had not shielded me at the cost of his life, I would have long since been beaten into soul-scattering ashes by those powerful experts!"

Li Chen said, "All right, search around. You should be able to find the Ghost State Origin!"

"I'll take a look..."

Hearing this, Lu Ren nodded and looked around once more.

Soon afterward, he noticed something: there was no spiritual energy in this great hall, not even a single trace of it.

"Senior, I'm afraid these Martial Emperor Realm experts did not die of old age. It is very likely that they starved to death!"

Lu Ren said.
