"Who are you?"
The fake emperor seemed to sense something.
He walked within a zhang of Zhuge Sheng, his eyes fixed on Zhuge Sheng, trying to find any clue.
Zhuge Sheng was completely covered, only his eyes exposed.
Within his eyes, there was no ripple, no fluctuation or change due to the question.
And then...
He completely ignored the fake emperor.
He followed directly behind Bai Zihe.
"Swish!"
The more Zhuge Sheng acted this way, the heavier the fake emperor's suspicion became. He directly reached out to grab the veil on Zhuge Sheng's face, attempting to remove it and see what was underneath.
"Swish, swish!"
Bai Zihe flashed and blocked the fake emperor, facing him with cold eyes, unyielding: "What do you want to do?"
"Swish!"
The answer was the fake emperor's repeated actions towards Zhuge Sheng.
Bai Zihe's face turned colder. He immediately slapped out.
Although this palm only used ten percent of his strength, it still sent the fake emperor flying, forcing him back over a dozen steps before he could finally stand firm.
The fake emperor was instantly enraged.
"Bai Zihe, don't push it too far!"
His face was like frost, pointing at Zhuge Sheng, he said sternly, "Since we are going to Dragon Island together, as companions, we must know everyone thoroughly."
"Otherwise..."
"How can we trust each other?"
"Otherwise..."
"If an accident occurs midway, can you bear the responsibility?"
The fake emperor spoke righteously, as if he had logic on his side, in a questioning tone.
Bai Zihe, however, did not take him seriously at all, merely saying indifferently: "The people I bring, I know them thoroughly."
"But as for you..."
"There's no need to say more. You'd best shut up."
This casual tone...
The fake emperor was instantly furious!
"Then what if I must know today?"
"If you don't reveal his identity, I will refuse to let him board the ship!"
The fake emperor stared intently at Bai Zihe, his eyes narrowed, sharp glints flickering within the slits, like a snake's flickering tongue, causing unease.
And their confrontation.
It caused all the experts behind the fake emperor to stand up and surround them.
The Imperial City Guardian, Liu Wen, also suddenly opened his eyes. A dazzling brilliance instantly slashed across the sky, like an earth-shattering sword energy, making one feel like there was a sword at their back!
"Then you can try."
Bai Zihe retorted, showing no fear on his face.
After speaking, Bai Zihe led everyone towards the ship.
The fake emperor did not hesitate and rushed directly towards Zhuge Sheng.
"Swish!"
Bai Zihe did not give way and slapped out again.
This time, the palm strike was unrestrained!
"Rumble!"
The surging force instantly whipped up a gale.
The surging palm power, carrying sharp killing intent, raged outwards, aimed at the fake emperor.
"Shu Shu!"
In a flash, two sword energies appeared before the fake emperor, colliding head-on with Bai Zihe's palm strike and dissipating simultaneously.
The next moment.
Guardian Liu Wen appeared before the fake emperor, staring coldly at Bai Zihe.
"Swish!"
"Swish, swish!"
Without hesitation, he formed several hand seals.
In the void, cold energies began to condense, from nothing to something, from dimness to brilliance, in just half a second.
Half a second later.
A massive sword energy hovered in the void, slashing down from above.
Carrying supreme divine power, carrying unparalleled momentum.
"Swish!"
Before the sword energy even landed.
The plants and trees, loose stones and gravel on both sides of Bai Zihe instantly turned to dust, and were blown outwards by the powerful airwaves.
This sword strike, the momentum preceded the blade!
Truly immensely powerful.
"Petty trick."
A sharp glint flashed in Bai Zihe's eyes, and he raised his hand to throw a punch.
The divine transformation realm's inner energy poured out at this moment. This punch was filled with supreme profundity and absolute decisiveness, booming outwards.
"Rumble..."
The next moment, the two collided, instantly erupting in a sky-shattering light.
Even the lowest-ranking experts present were Grandmasters, yet they were blinded by the light, unable to look directly at it!
The turbulent wind and waves that were stirred up instantly caused the seawater hundreds of feet away to rise three to five feet high.
Finally, after two or three breaths.
The light gradually dispersed, and the wind and waves slowly subsided.
Bai Zihe stood firm, and the guardian stood rooted to the spot.
The two were once again evenly matched.
This level of confrontation also made the others on both sides inwardly astonished.
The guardian's attack failed. He suddenly lifted off the ground, strangely floating into mid-air, his long robe fluttering without wind, exuding the demeanor of a grandmaster.
He was about to get serious!
A smile curved Bai Zihe's lips, yet he showed no fear, standing in front of Zhuge Sheng without moving an inch.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
"Sha, sha sha!"
"Hua, hua hua!"
Just then, sounds could be heard from afar.
Everyone looked over in unison.
At the end of their sight, a large group of burly men were rapidly approaching.
These people...
Although they came together, they were divided into three small groups. The one on the left, dressed entirely in black, was led by a woman, none other than Irina leading the Dark Empire.
The burly men in the center, each over two meters tall, were the experts of the Hand of God led by Satan!
On the right, uniformly dressed in the military attire of the Bear Man Kingdom, were the experts of the White Death Base led by Kodomo!
"Bai Zihe!"
"Mr. Bai!"
"Lord Bai!"
The group quickly arrived and stood beside Bai Zihe.
They were all astute individuals.
Naturally, they could see that Bai Zihe and the fake emperor's men were in a standoff. As they still relied on Bai Zihe to enter Dragon Island, they all took sides and declared their loyalty.
The fake emperor's expression changed when he saw so many experts accompanying Bai Zihe. It became gloomy and chilling.
The previously evenly matched situation had shifted.
Continuing to fight would be irrational.
The fake emperor let out a cold snort and turned to leave.
As for the guardian...
From the moment he saw this group of people, he immediately landed back on the ground, falling behind the fake emperor, remaining silent.
He now followed the fake emperor away.
Everyone boarded the ship.
The captain was named Jiang Dafu, an old captain who had spent more than half his life at sea.
He took the map given by the fake emperor and set sail directly.
The various factions stayed in their respective rooms.
In the fake emperor's room.
"I have a feeling."
The fake emperor scanned everyone, his expression solemn: "The mysterious person brought by Bai Zihe is by no means ordinary. He might be the key figure in this trip to Dragon Island."
"If his identity is not revealed, I will always have a thorn in my side."
"You guys..."
"Do you have any good ideas?"
The many experts looked at each other and shook their heads slightly.
With Bai Zihe around, unless they could overpower him, no method would be effective.
Finally, everyone's gaze fell on Liu Wen.
"Bai Zihe's strength is indeed very strong."
Liu Wen's voice was very calm, without a trace of ripple: "Even I may not have a ten percent chance of defeating him."
The experts' pupils suddenly contracted.
Even Liu Wen said so, then Bai Zihe was truly outrageously strong.
"But Dragon Island is not ordinary."
Speaking of this, Liu Wen, who had always been as calm as still water, actually showed a slight fluctuation on his face: "There are many people on the island who can deal with Bai Zihe."
"As long as he angers the island's guardian taboo, even the strongest will be doomed!"
Upon hearing this, the fake emperor was overjoyed.
He quickly pressed: "Guardian, what is the island's guardian taboo?"
All the experts pricked up their ears.
