Xiao Mu did not dodge or evade, wielding the Eight-Sided Hammer to block the attack.

Slap!

The Judge Pen struck the Eight-Sided Hammer, only releasing bursts of Golden Light and Death Qi.

Taking the chance, the Ghost Servant swung the mallet-shaped Divine Weapon once more toward the Undying Evil Ancestor's chest, splattering blood and flesh as the Undying Evil Ancestor let out another pained wail.

"Seize!"

All of a sudden, Xiao Mu pointed a finger, and the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor and the Great Decree appeared above the Undying Evil Ancestor's head.

Supreme Intention descended, and the panicked Undying Evil Ancestor looked up in alarm.

Streams of Golden Light rained down from high above, enveloping the Undying Evil Ancestor's entire body.

With the issuance of Supreme Intention, the link between the Judge Pen on the ground and the Undying Evil Ancestor was immediately severed.

"You... you... what kind of trick is this? How did you take my Judge Pen?" The Judge Pen was seized and immediately picked up by Xiao Mu, causing the Undying Evil Ancestor's expression to change drastically.

He couldn't figure out how Xiao Mu managed to take the Judge Pen from his hands.

How could Xiao Mu possess such a technique?

After obtaining the Judge Pen, Xiao Mu immediately transferred it to his left hand and did not answer the Undying Evil Ancestor's question.

With Judge Pen in his left hand and the Eight-Sided Hammer in his right, he struck the Undying Evil Ancestor simultaneously.

The Eight-Sided Hammer brought forth a mass of Golden Light, while the Judge Pen drew a line of Death Qi from the left and right directions toward the Undying Evil Ancestor.

The Ghost Servant seized the opportunity, swinging the mallet-shaped Divine Weapon from the front to restrain.

"Ah~"

In a flurry of panic, the Undying Evil Ancestor shouted and brandished the Ledger of Life and Death to block.

However, when he had both the Ledger of Life and Death and the Judge Pen in his possession, he was no match for Xiao Mu and the Ghost Servant, so how could he now withstand their joint attacks with only the Ledger of Life and Death in his hand?

Before long, the Undying Evil Ancestor sustained continuous injuries and the Ledger of Life and Death was also taken by Xiao Mu using the Emperor Authority.

"You... you... I never expected that your strength, Xiao Mu, would increase so much in just one year!"

The Undying Evil Ancestor was covered in cuts and bruises, his body drenched in blood, with barely any intact area left on him.

He gasped for air as he took a few steps back, ceasing his attack on Xiao Mu and the Ghost Servant, adopting an attitude of conceding defeat.

"Undying Evil Ancestor, you killed the Thunderbolt Leader and caused chaos in the human world, your death is well-deserved!" Xiao Mu looked directly at the Undying Evil Ancestor, showing no intention of letting him off.

"Causing chaos in the human world, heh heh!"

The Undying Evil Ancestor's mouth curled into a disdainful sneer, "Xiao Mu, do you really think I entered the human world to cause you humans trouble?"

"If not, then why?" Xiao Mu felt repulsed, but gestured to stop the Ghost Servant from continuing his attack on the Undying Evil Ancestor.

"Ridiculous, you have no idea of my true intent. Causing chaos in the human world? Haha, it's laughable. Those who want you dead are the Life and Death Sect, the Heavenly Court, while I... to be precise, I am your ally."

The Undying Evil Ancestor stood firm, no longer retreating, but as he erupted in wild laughter, blood continuously spilled from his mouth.

His injuries were too severe, and even without Xiao Mu taking action, he would not last much longer.

The damage inflicted by Divine Weapons and Treasures was not something that could be simply repaired by the use of Life Force.

"An ally?"

Xiao Mu sneered inwardly, not believing a word from the Undying Evil Ancestor, "An ally that captured over a hundred ordinary humans and Mutated Beings and killed the great leader from my ancient Song Relics?"

The Undying Evil Ancestor faltered, seemingly aware that his words were hard to believe by Xiao Mu, and argued, "It was a necessary act. The treasure of the City God was something I had to obtain at all costs. Thunderbolt was at fault for contending with me over it."

"So, if I want to kill you, you shouldn't fight back, and if you do fight back, you deserve to die, is that it?" Xiao Mu coldly scoffed with contempt.

"Hehe!"

The Undying Evil Ancestor didn't know how to respond, his laughter tinged with mockery. After a moment, he raised his head to look directly at Xiao Mu, "Xiao Mu, whether you believe it or not, I, and your Eastern Region, are friends, not foes."

"Your real enemy is the Life and Death Sect, is the Heavenly Court."

At that moment, the voice transmission of the Five Virtues Divine Monarch suddenly came from the black jade plate, "Xiao boy, ask him what his relationship with Emperor Xuanding is."

"What is your relationship with Emperor Xuanding?" Xiao Mu asked the Undying Evil Ancestor, surprised by the Five Virtues Divine Monarch's words, yet still following the instruction.

"You know of Emperor Xuanding?" The Undying Evil Ancestor's eyes suddenly widened, brimming with intense surprise.

"What right does a dying man have to ask questions?" Xiao Mu did not answer the Undying Evil Ancestor's question.

"Hehe!"

With a stifled sneer, the Undying Evil Ancestor looked at Xiao Mu with suspicion in his eyes, then said, "That's right, a loser indeed has no right to question the victor. You ask me what my relationship with Emperor Xuanding is, I can answer you. I came to your eastern region on the orders of Emperor Xuanding."

"Did you betray the Life and Death Sect because of Emperor Xuanding?" Xiao Mu suddenly remembered the information he had learned from Chi Jue of the Life and Death Sect.

"You could say that, or rather, I was originally one of the Emperor's men, and it was under his arrangement that I joined the Life and Death Sect. Cough cough!" The Undying Evil Ancestor made no attempt to conceal this, though talking caused him to cough violently, spitting out blood and pieces of his organs.

He was severely wounded, with the injuries causing him to cough up bits of his shattered organs.

Emperor Xuanding sent someone to infiltrate the Life and Death Sect?

Xiao Mu's expression changed subtly, as the words of the Undying Evil Ancestor held quite a bit of information.

Why would Emperor Xuanding send someone to infiltrate the Life and Death Sect? He and the Sect both wielded the Authority of Life and Death, could it be...

"Xiao Mu, how about we collaborate?" The Undying Evil Ancestor suddenly proposed.

"You, a dying man, wish to discuss cooperation with me?" Xiao Mu asked in a sneer, eyeing the evident injuries on the Undying Evil Ancestor's body, while secretly estimating how long the other could live—three minutes? One minute?

At the same time, he was considering whether it was necessary to kill the Undying Evil Ancestor before he died, to obtain Energy Points.

"It's not about me cooperating with you, but the Emperor cooperating with your eastern region, with your so-called Alliance in the human world." The Undying Evil Ancestor was not irritated, and despite his severe injuries, he did not show much panic, maintaining a calm and unhurried demeanor.

"Xuanding ranks last among the four great Emperors of the Heavenly Court, known for his timidity and lack of courage. Where would he find the audacity to betray the Heavenly Court, to betray the Heavenly Emperor!" The Five Virtues Divine Monarch transmitted to Xiao Mu again, providing an analysis of Emperor Xuanding.

"Hehe!" Xiao Mu responded to the Undying Evil Ancestor with a sneer of disdain, "Emperor Xuanding has the courage to betray the Heavenly Court? To betray the Heavenly Emperor?"

The Undying Evil Ancestor stared at Xiao Mu's eyes, his own suddenly bulging with an expression of surprise, as if to say, how could you possibly know all this?

A moment later, he responded, "If the Heavenly Court were still ruled by the Heavenly Emperor, the Emperor would certainly not dare to betray him. But now, in the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Emperor is rarely seen, and the real power is in the hands of Emperor Taijia."

"If you know that the Emperor wouldn't dare betray the Heavenly Emperor, you should also know that the Emperor and Emperor Taijia are at odds!"

Who knows where Xuanding and Taijia disagree.

Xiao Mu silently rebutted in his mind, but since even the Five Virtues Divine Monarch didn't seem to know the relationship between Emperor Xuanding and Emperor Taijia, no further explanation was transmitted to Xiao Mu, leaving him unsure of how to respond to the Undying Evil Ancestor.

After thinking for a moment, a little while later, Xiao Mu said, "So what if that's the case?"

"So what if that's the case?"

The Undying Evil Ancestor flicked his mouth scornfully, "Xiao Mu, do you know of the Unbreakable Divine Monarch of the Life and Death Sect?"

Xiao Mu wasn't very familiar with the Undying Divine Monarch; all he knew was from what the Five Virtues Divine Monarch and Chi Jue of the Life and Death Sect had told him.

He answered, "I heard that the Undying Divine Monarch perished thirty years ago due to injuries inflicted by the Lord of the White Mansion."

"Perished? Haha!"

The Undying Evil Ancestor was taken aback, then burst into wild laughter, but after just one laugh, the pain from his injuries caused him to cough loudly, spitting out more organ fragments.

Laugh again, and you'll die!

Xiao Mu watched impassively as the Undying Evil Ancestor spat out organ fragments onto the ground, his own face showing no reaction.

"Xiao Mu, the information you have about the death of the Undying Divine Sovereign, you heard it from the disciples of the Life and Death Sect, right?" After coughing a few times, the Undying Evil Ancestor suddenly asked Xiao Mu.

"That's right."

Xiao Mu nodded, not feeling the need to hide the source of his information.
