Chapter 1604: Pendant Swop

Chapter 1604: Pendant Swop

Wu Yu’s clone faced the three demonic emperors for now.

"Did you hear us? Hand over the bronze pendants, or your mystical dragon friend gets it. And before that, we’ll torture him until he’s begging for death as a mercy! Don’t doubt that we can do it!" Olden Demonic Emperor threatened, gleaming with a metallic luster. He was a striking sight amidst the mists.

At the same time, Wu Yu’s clone noticed that the metal covering half of Wu Jun’s body was moving. The metal seemed to be dissolving the Primordial Immortal Dragon’s body!

The pain must be indescribable. Olden Demonic Emperor could control metals, and this sort of torture technique was like dunking someone into molten metal. The pain was more than even a 9-heavens immortal king could bear, and Wu Jun let out an anguished cry.

Wu Yu could bear it no more. "Stop it!"

His clone shouted. But it was just a clone. It could not help Wu Jun, and could only watch the torture with pained eyes.

Unending Crepuscular Sea laughed: "Watch carefully now. This is your mystical dragon companion. If you want him to live, hand over the bronze pendants. We won’t say it again!"

The icy water that covered half of Wu Jun’s body continued to batter at him, the cold seeping into his bones. They froze him down to the marrow, a chill so deep that Wu Jun himself seemed to swoon.

Wu Jun was also held by the Perpetual World Tree’s branches, and completely immobilized.

He was completely at their mercy, and escape by himself was out of the question.

Seeing Wu Jun tortured thus before him, Wu Yu’s rage poured out from his eyes, and his clone immediately demanded: "Stop immediately, or you will not see the bronze pendants!"

This shout indeed gave them pause. The torture was halted, although they still held him captive.

Perpetual Demonic Emperor said severely: "The bronze pendants. Now. Hand over the bronze pendants, and we let him go. A mutually beneficial situation!"

"This is just my clone. When my real body reaches, I’ll make the trade."

Wu Yu’s clone had already calmed the situation down, stopping the torture.

However, the trade still required more negotiations.

"I have two bronze pendants with me. How can I be sure you will let him go if I give you both at once? I can’t trust you." Wu Yu knew that they would not let him go first either. After all, they knew about his ability to flee. They could not let him go just like that.

Therefore, he had to hand over the bronze pendants first.

But if they decided to go back on their word, there was nothing that Wu Yu could do either. They had to work this out.

"And what do you propose?"

Unending Demonic Emperor countered sharply, his frosty aura snaking forth.

"I will give you one bronze pendant, and you release him. And then I will give you the other. Do you accept?" Wu Yu’s clone asked.

This was the only possible way. Neither would accept anything else.

The three demonic emperors conferred briefly, and then nodded. "Get your real body over quickly then. But we will only trust you this once. If you are cheating us again, we will give you no such chance the next time."

They too knew that it was unrealistic to demand both bronze pendants from Wu Yu at the same time. They could only reinforce things with this threat.

After all, if they were all to continue moving in Eternal Emperor Tomb, who was to say that such a situation would not occur again?

And if Wu Yu pulled a fast one and ran with Wu Jun and one pendant, he had to consider the consequences if Wu Jun ever fell into their hands again.

Of course, Wu Yu would not easily part from Wu Jun again after this hard-won reunion. He had to be on guard at all times. It was too dangerous for Wu Jun to be left alone.

"Deal."

Wu Yu’s clone agreed. His real body hurried over as quickly as he could.

Three days later, his real body finally arrived. Seeing Wu Jun’s gorily tortured figure with his own eyes caused a burning anger to flare within his chest.

He could only quell it for now, vowing to himself that when the opportunity came to kill them all, he would show no mercy.

"I’m here now. Which of you will take the bronze pendant? Only one of you can come!"

Wu Yu called out from a distance away, trying to instigate some strife.

This was a risky exchange. Neither side trusted the other. All of them wanted the pendant. Although Wu Jun was the priority for Wu Yu here, but if he could avoid handing over the bronze pendants, he definitely would not.

The three had already discussed this. The first pendant would be received by Olden Golden Mountain.

Both sides were playing this cautiously in the thick mists.

In the atmosphere of distrust, each step had to be taken carefully, or they might well be deceived by the other.

Olden Golden Mountain’s towering, shimmering frame came to stand before Wu Yu swiftly, and demanded in his ringing voice: "And now, the pendant."

Wu Yu carefully took out one of the pendants.

He was watching Olden Golden Mountain like a hawk. If he made any surprise move, Wu Yu would instantly flee. Even if Wu Jun was still here, but there was still room to bargain as long as he was alive. If both of them were trapped, then the game was over.

Fortunately, Olden Golden Mountain had no intention of attacking him for now. He took the bronze pendant and moved back.

Olden Golden Mountain looked pleased to have one bronze pendant in hand. After confirming that Wu Yu had not pulled off anything strange on him, it was Unending Crepuscular Sea’s turn to receive a pendant.

Very quickly, the Unending Crepuscular Sea’s icy aura had breezed its way forth to Wu Yu.

"You’re a wise one. But I hope your wisdom continues. Hand over the second bronze pendant." Unending Demonic Emperor demanded in an icy tone.

"First you have to free my friend."

Wu Yu said unhurriedly, keeping a vigilant eye on Unending Demonic Emperor. He added calmly: "One bronze pendant is useless. You need two in order to open the eternal demon emperor graves. All you have to do is free my friend, and the chance to open the graves will be yours."

This was a complete lie, but they would not know. After all, they thought that Wu Yu had already opened an eternal demon emperor grave before, and therefore their heartbeats quickened.

All three were getting fidgety now. They had also heard that Celestial Meteor had found an eternal demon emperor grave recently, although he had been unable to open it. Could it be that this immortal kid had already opened it?

They could not help but wonder. If they could open the eternal demon emperor graves, they stood a great chance of rising to the eternal demon immortality realm!

This would be a monumental breakthrough, and was an irresistible temptation for them.

But they did not know that Wu Yu was lying to them.

This innocuous lie from Wu Yu shook their concentration enough.

Initially, they had been reluctant to release Wu Jun before obtaining the second pendant.

But these words from Wu Yu made Perpetual World Tree think of f

After all, the Primordial Immortal Dragon was on its last legs now. Even if they let him go, he could not get away quickly.

As long as they watched the Primordial Immortal Dragon carefully, Wu Yu would definitely be forced to hand over the second bronze pendant!

Therefore, they released Wu Jun.

Wu Jun, who had looked limp and lifeless on the ground, suddenly burst with heavenly rule power as the vines released him. He sped towards Wu Yu’s location!

This put a real scare into the three demonic emperors.

By the time they reacted, Wu Jun had already reached Wu Yu. The decision was clear now. Wu Yu would not hand over the second bronze pendant, even with the standing threat.

He quickly stashed the second bronze pendant, and then took Wu Jun onto his Somersault Cloud. He flipped away!

Unending Crepuscular Sea had started forward, but was held back by Wu Yu’s clones. Doppelganger heavenly rule flooded the skies, and pushed Unending Crepuscular Sea back with frightening strength.

Unending Demonic Emperor was forced back. By the time he had overcome it, Wu Yu was long gone. He roared: "Scum, the next time we meet I will smash you to pieces! There will be no mercy!"

They had intended to walk away from this exchange with two pendants, but now they only had one.

Although the truth might not be like Wu Yu had lied about - where both had to be together for it to work - but it was nevertheless an unsatisfactory outcome.

The three demonic emperors swore to each other that they would not easily trust Wu Yu again the next time they caught Wu Jun.

As for Wu Yu, he had led Wu Jun deep into the mists, to a relatively safe place, and had begun to help him heal.

Wu Jun had expended enormous energy to flee to Wu Yu’s side. His internal pathways were damaged, and he had to properly rest.

"Wu Yu, I’m so sorry. I was caught by accident, and made you lose a bronze pendant." Wu Jun was remorseful, even while he hurt from the demonic emperors’ torture.

"Think nothing of it. You came here with me, and I cannot possibly let you come to harm. Or I would be troubled! It’s just one pendant. I still have one with me. We can just snatch it back!" Wu Yu laughed, not too worried.

Seeing Wu Yu’s attitude, Wu Jun was reassured. He thought to himself that he had seen Wu Yu right after all.
