1411 The Book of Life and Death, Fooling Wu Gang (2)
Zhou Shu was deep in thought. Wang E didn’t seem very smart, but he could hear him out first.

But it wasn’t impossible that Wu Gang was looking for the Book of Life and Death.

Back in the Glacial Palace, Wu Gang had guarded the thatched hut tightly. Apart from the ‘corpse’ of the Supreme Yin Star Lord, there was nothing else in the thatched hut.

At the time, Zhou Shu had said that he could help the Supreme Yin Star Lord, so Wu Gang had let him enter the thatched hut.

But later, he had been tricked by Mu Zhixing and let him take away the ‘corpse’ of the Supreme Yin Star Lord.

If the Supreme Yin Star Lord died back then and only left a corpse, then it’s not impossible for Wu Gang to find the Book of Life and Death if he wants to revive her. Zhou Shu pondered. But after so many years, why didn’t Wu Gang search for it before?

That’s right. He seems unable to come to the ancestral land himself. I brought him back, so he owes me a favor.

There might be something I don’t understand yet.

“General Wang E, what else do you know about the Book of Life and Death?” Zhou Shu asked.

“That’s all. I don’t know anything else.” Wang E became ‘Wang Buzhi’ again…

It was unknown how he had become one of the thirty-six generals of the Heavenly Court.

Did you only eat in the Ancient Heavenly Court back then? Zhou Shu complained in his mind. I shouldn’t have too many expectations for Wang E.

“General Wang E, I’ll handle Wu Gang’s matter. You should go back and guard the border first. Don’t let the people of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom take advantage of the situation,” Zhou Shu said solemnly. “I promise you that I will investigate the truth of the Ancient Heavenly Court.”

Wang E thought for a moment and seemed to glance at the Legendary Armament Canon floating in front of Zhou Shu. Finally, he nodded and said, “Alright, I believe you.”

With that, clouds appeared under his feet, and he headed toward the place where the ancestral land met the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom.

After Wang E left, Zhou Shu looked in the direction Wu Gang had disappeared. The Book of Life and Death… It seems there are really many secrets hidden in this ancestral land.

The Black Emperor wants to encroach on the ancestral land. What is his goal? Just to destroy the remnants of the Heavenly Court? That doesn’t seem to be worth him making such a big fuss about.

It’s a pity that Wang E, a Heavenly General of the Ancient Heavenly Court, doesn’t know anything. Otherwise, I might have been able to find out the true purpose of the Black Emperor.

When Wu Gang was conscious, he seemed to know more than Wang E. Moreover, Wu Gang was actually able to stall the Black Emperor. No matter what, he had to get Wu Gang back.

Zhou Shu made his decision. Without any hesitation, he turned into a golden light and charged forward.

But now that Wu Gang was constantly splitting mountains everywhere, there was a huge commotion.

Along the way, Zhou Shu had encountered many human martial artists who followed the commotion and rushed over and sent them away.

“Brother Wu, stop. The Book of Life and Death you’re looking for isn’t here.”

Zhou Shu arrived near Wu Gang and watched him split open mountains with his axe. Fortunately, no one lived in the forest.

Otherwise, with how reckless he was, who knew how many casualties he would cause?

“Do you know where the Book of Life and Death is?” Wu Gang suddenly stopped and turned to look at Zhou Shu with an incomparably sharp gaze.

“That’s right!” Wu Gang seemed to understand something. “The Book of Life and Death must be in your hands! Otherwise, you wouldn’t have said that you could help me!”

His eyes shone brightly as he shouted, “Give me the Book of Life and Death!”

He took a step toward Zhou Shu, and his aura soared into the sky. The seemingly ordinary axe in his hand emitted a dazzling light.

Zhou Shu could still see a trace of fear in the depths of Wu Gang’s eyes, but his desire for the Book of Life and Death allowed him to overcome his fear of the Legendary Armament Canon.

“Give me the Book of Life and Death!” Wu Gang took another step forward. He had already raised the axe in his hand, as if he was going to split Zhou Shu in half at any moment.

Even from afar, Zhou Shu felt a sharp aura lock onto him. He even had goosebumps.

Zhou Shu had a feeling that if Wu Gang really slashed down with his axe, he might not be able to withstand it unscathed.
Wu Gang was much stronger than Wang E.

Zhou Shu couldn’t help doubting. Back then, was Wang E’s strength really similar to Wu Gang’s? Or was Wang E bragging? Wang E doesn’t look like someone who brags.

Then, there could only be one truth.

Wang E didn’t know Wu Gang’s true strength back then. After all, Wang E was also Wang Buzhi…

Zhou Shu looked at Wu Gang and asked, “You want the Book of Life and Death because you want to revive the Supreme Yin Star Lord?”
