"He is still in the recovery period and no longer has Xiang Liu and Fu You to protect him. If I take action, and with the help of the Crown Prince, there should be a high chance of success."
"But why is he so calm? That shouldn't be the case!"
"By the way, since Gonggong was so powerful in ancient times and had two such strong subordinates as Xiangliu and Fuyou, he must not be stupid. So why did he let Xiangliu leave and face me alone?"
"Could it be that his strength has recovered enough to suppress me? So he's not afraid of me making a move?"
"Or is he deliberately testing me? Is Xiang Liu actually hiding in the shadows?"
...
In that instant, thousands of thoughts flashed through the Demon Emperor's mind, but in the end he still did not make a move. After all, the aura that Gonggong displayed was too frightening, making him feel that Gonggong must have a trump card.
So even if the other party had not fully recovered, he dared not take such a big risk.
"My lord is too kind! How could I dare!"
In the past, he had always seen his ministers trembling with fear under the Demon Emperor's rule. Now, seeing his father trembling with fear under someone else's rule, Crown Prince Jinwu felt utterly exhausted.
Hmph, all that talk about the heart of a strongman is fake; only strength is real.
If you are stronger than others, you will naturally maintain the mindset of a strong person.
If you're weaker than others, you can only obediently play the subservient role.
Once he understood all this, his confused gaze immediately hardened.
"I doubt you'd dare." Gonggong snorted coldly and continued to breathe in his vital energy, his body becoming increasingly solid.
When has the Demon Emperor ever been treated with such contempt?
He felt a surge of resentment and anger, but being extremely shrewd, he showed no sign of it, only secretly watching the direction Zu An had fled.
Previously, they were clearly enemies, but this time, I inexplicably hope that they can create some kind of miracle.
However, the situation for Zuan and his group on the other side was not so good. The ancient tomb was full of interconnected passages, and they did not know where they had escaped to.
Although various traps and mechanisms were set up along the way to hinder the opponent, Fuyou was, after all, an Earth Immortal, and the difference in strength was simply too great.
"Xiao Anzi, we can't keep running like this. Why don't we turn back and fight him?" Yun Jianyue said anxiously.
"What are we going to fight with?" Yan Xuehen poured cold water on the idea. Although this floating creature was not as strong as the Demon Emperor and Zhao Hao, it was still a terrestrial immortal. In a normal battle, the group would not be able to hold out for long, let alone win.
"The Sun-Shooting Bow, the suns it shot down before were all beings far more powerful than these floating creatures," Yun Jianyue answered instinctively.
"We've dealt with one of the floating creatures, but what about the others?" Yan Xuehen said coldly. There was only one special arrow left. It was enough to deal with the floating creatures, but there were still the more powerful Xiangliu, the Demon Emperor, and even Gonggong. It was such a waste.
"Then what else can we do?" Yun Jianyue was a little irritated. He had been a tyrant in the world for so many years, but he had never been so frustrated in this unknown place.
“Azu will definitely have a way.” Yu Yanluo looked at Zu An tenderly.
Yun Jianyue was somewhat unconvinced, thinking that although this kid was indeed exceptionally strong, with all those messy tricks he had up his sleeve, he was at most about the same level as her now. How could he possibly deal with an Earth Immortal?
Is it true that women become silly when they fall in love?
Suddenly, she noticed that the Ice Stone Woman beside her was also staring at Zu An with extremely trusting eyes, and her heart skipped a beat.
Just then, a loud laugh rang out, and the enormous body of the floating creature blocked their path: "Boy, let's see where you run this time?"
Zuan smiled slightly, the tension on his face vanishing instantly, replaced by a playful expression: "Who said I was going to run away? I just wanted to lure you here alone."

Fuyou was taken aback, and said in a muffled voice, "You brat, have you lost your mind?"
Even Yan Xuehen and the other two women looked at him with puzzlement, unable to understand where he got his confidence from.
Without wasting words, Zu'an made a strange gesture with both palms in front of him: "Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms!"
Yu Yanlu blinked and asked the two women beside her, "Sisters, you are both very knowledgeable. Do you know what kind of martial art the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms is?"
She thought for a long time but had never heard of it before. She was secretly ashamed of her lack of knowledge, but Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue were both leaders of their respective sects and grandmasters, so they must have heard of it.
Seeing the expectation in Yu Yanluo's eyes, Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue exchanged a glance, both feeling their cheeks burning: "The name does sound impressive, but we've never heard of it before."
"His starting stance doesn't seem to be very effective, and it's full of flaws. It looks a bit like..." Yan Xuehen hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
"Like street performers," Yun Jianyue said more directly.
Little did they know that these starting gestures were just movements that Zuan had seen actors perform on television in his previous life.
At this moment, Zuan took a step forward, and suddenly various hidden patterns appeared around him, then extended in all directions. Soon, a series of rumbling sounds seemed to come from the distant mountains.
In an instant, everyone seemed to feel as if the entire mountain had come to life.
"Playing tricks!" The floating creature snorted coldly and pounced forward. The force of its massive body was enough to make the group of people breathless.
Just then, the wall next to them suddenly cracked open, and a giant yellow dragon flew out. Its huge head, menacing teeth, sharp claws, and even its scales were clearly visible.
"Is this dragon energy formed from a dragon vein?" Yan Xuehen's eyes widened in surprise.
She had some knowledge of rune formations and naturally knew that some great mountain ranges had legends of dragon veins, where cultivators could achieve twice the results with half the effort; and that the imperial tombs of mortal dynasties buried within them could ensure the long-term prosperity and fortune of the entire nation.
