Although Lin Xiao could not wait to attack Wuji Island, the Poison Lord and Xu Tianchong's words made sense. Although the Great Quan Empire had now unified the five regions and nine provinces, once something happened to Lin Xiao, this grand empire was likely to immediately collapse and become scattered sand.
Therefore, Lin Xiao could not be impulsive.
After all, unifying the Firmament World was just a starting point for Lin Xiao. He still had more things to do, and his safety had to be guaranteed!
Under such circumstances, Lin Xiao temporarily suspended the attack on Wuji Island, and sent people to Wuji Island to inquire about the situation there. Unfortunately, a month had passed, and Lin Xiao had sent two batches of scouts to Wuji Island, but there was still no news of Zhou Yuan and Yu Pingchang.
The two of them seemed to have evaporated from the world and disappeared without a trace. This made Lin Xiao feel uneasy and worried all day long.
At this time, an old acquaintance appeared.
Seeing the wounded 'Formation King', Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Formation King, what happened to you?
Why are you in such a sorry state? "
The experts who had besieged Zhou Yuan and Yu Pingchang on Wuji Island had now surrendered to the Great Quan Empire. Only the Formation King and Gong Yangchi were not there. Gong Yangchi was dead, and the Formation King had not appeared because of the problem of camp. Lin Xiao did not send anyone to look for the Formation King.
After all, the hatred between Lin Xiao and the Formation King was too deep. Even if the two sides had cooperated before, Lin Xiao still could not accept the Formation King. After all, the Formation King was too vicious, and his revenge on Qingzhou was too extreme. Lin Xiao had always been brooding over it.
However, in order to deal with Zhou Yuan and Yu Pingchang, Lin Xiao did not rashly attack the Formation King. He planned to kill Zhou Yuan and Yu Pingchang first before attacking the Formation King.
However, what Lin Xiao did not expect was that the Array King would actually appear in front of him. This made him feel somewhat incredulous.
According to his understanding of Zhen Wang, Zhen Wang was not the kind of person who would take the initiative to seek refuge with him. Moreover, Zhen Wang knew very well that even if he took the initiative to seek refuge with him, he would not accept him.
"Greetings, Grand Spring King."
While Lin Xiao was still in shock, the Formation King slowly shook his head and smiled: "I am not the Formation King you speak of, the real Formation King is already dead!"
"This …"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao was stunned.
The Array King in front of him had the same appearance and aura as the Array King he knew. Even their realms were no different. Now that he said he wasn't the Array King, Lin Xiao obviously didn't believe him.
"Second brother, he is indeed not a Formation King."
Seeing Lin Xiao's expression, the Poison King frowned and said slowly: "Although I can't explain it, he is indeed somewhat different from the Formation King."
Since the Poison King had said so, Lin Xiao naturally did not doubt him. He glanced at the Formation King and asked: "Since you say you are not the Formation King, then tell me who you are."
"Grand Spring King, you should have heard Immortal and Bloodthirsty mention my name before. I am the Chessboard of Life and Death."
After a moment of hesitation, the Formation King said: "This time, I am here to seek your help in avenging the Formation King!"
"What?"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao cried out in surprise.
Of course, Lin Xiao was no stranger to the Chessboard of Life and Death. The Blade Of The Undead and the Bloodlust Sword had mentioned it to him before. The Chessboard of Life and Death was the head of the 14 Divine Weapons in the Firmament World, and it guarded the Central State!
According to the Blade Of The Undead, the Chessboard of Life and Death was severely injured after the Battle of Destruction. In order to heal his injuries, he joined the Formation Sect and colluded with the Formation Sect to deal with the other Divine Weapons. This made the Blade Of The Undead very angry. However, since the Formation Sect perished, the Chessboard of Life and Death disappeared. It had not appeared for so many years. Who would have thought that it would appear in front of Lin Xiao now, and in such a way!
This made Lin Xiao very surprised.
"You should have heard about me from Immortal. During the Battle of Wuji Island, I was severely injured in order to defend against the outlanders. I was saved by the Formation King, so I joined the Formation Sect."
Seeing the surprised Lin Xiao, the Formation King slowly explained, "In order to repay the Formation King for saving my life, I began to work for the Formation Sect. At the same time, I used the power of the Formation Sect to recover my strength.
Although the Array Faction wasn't the strongest, it was very compatible with me. It allowed me to recover a lot of my strength. In an accident, I met Bu Mie. The people of the Array Faction wanted him, so I had no choice but to attack him. However, I never thought of harming him! "
So that was the case!
At that time, the Blade Of The Undead only told Lin Xiao that the Chessboard of Life and Death had joined the Formation Sect to recover his strength. However, he did not expect that the Chessboard of Life and Death had joined the Formation Sect to repay the Formation King for saving his life. As for the matter of him attacking the Blade Of The Undead, perhaps only the Blade Of The Undead himself knew.
"Are you really the Chessboard of Life and Death?"
Lin Xiao released the Blade Of The Undead from his mustard seed space. The Blade Of The Undead sized up the Formation King from head to toe and asked doubtfully.
"That's right."
The Formation King nodded and glanced at the Blade Of The Undead. He smiled lightly and said, "You should be familiar with the aura on my body. Other than me, who else could it be?"
"But your aura is a bit muddy. It's like the Chessboard of Life and Death, but also not like it."
The Blade Of The Undead frowned and stared at the Formation King, his face full of caution.
"That's because I fused with the Formation King."
The Formation King glanced at the Blade Of The Undead and said, "When the Formation Sect was destroyed, all the elders of the Formation Sect died with them. The Formation King was also on his last breath. In order to save his life, I could only fuse with him!
In order to save his life, I used up a lot of energy and fell into a coma. It wasn't until a while ago when the Formation King died that I regained control of this body. To be precise, I'm no longer a Divine Artifact. "
"So that's how it is. When you joined the Formation Sect, it wasn't to recover your strength, but to repay a debt of gratitude?"
The Blade Of The Undead heard this and nodded. He looked at the Formation King with a strange expression and curled his lips. "Then when you attacked me, it wasn't to devour me, but to chase me away?"
"That's right."
The Formation King nodded and said helplessly, "At that time, I had already joined the Formation Sect. Naturally, I had to work for them. They wanted to capture you and use you to strengthen me. But I wasn't willing, so I could only attack you on purpose to chase you away!"
"So that's how it is."
The Blade Of The Undead heard this and showed a look of relief. "I knew you weren't that kind of person, Chessboard Boss. You wouldn't betray us!"
