The person who let out a tragic cry was none other than Demigod Xingkui!

The moment Xiao Shi’s gaze focused on Demigod Xingkui, his pupils suddenly constricted. He clearly saw a pitch-black arm that suffused a terrifying aura of extermination pierce through Demigod Xingkui’s chest.

It was pierced through Demigod Xingkui’s back and out of his chest. Furthermore, the extermination aura emitted by the black arm was constantly destroying Demigod Xingkui’s vitality. This caused Demigod Xingkui to let out a tragic cry of pain.

At that moment, Demigod Xingkui was suffering an extremely fatal attack. What shocked him even more was that the person who attacked Demigod Xingkui was actually Demigod Mu Wen!

When Xiao Shi saw this scene, his first reaction was that Demigod Mu Wen had already been contaminated by the extermination origin, so he would attack Demigod Xingkui. But in the next second, he realized that something was wrong!

The pollution of the extermination origin was indeed powerful. However, it was not enough to completely contaminate Demigod Mu Wen in such a short period of time. There was no such thing as Demigod Mu Wen being contaminated more than him and Demigod Xingkui.

The three of them were equally contaminated. There was no such thing as comparing who had more. Furthermore, although the origin of extermination could corrupt demigods, that was under the condition that the demigods didn’t resist.

Once a demigod tried his best to remove it, it would take some time to cleanse the corruption. It wasn’t easy to completely contaminate a demigod with an extinct Origin. Unless demigods like them had encountered some kind of restriction and couldn’t take the initiative to remove the corruption, it was impossible for them to be contaminated like this.

Therefore, Xiao Shi was certain. Demigod Mu Wen did not attack Demigod Xingkui because he had been polluted.

“Previously, the three of us were contaminated at the same time. If we don’t get rid of the contamination in time, the contamination speed will expand rapidly. Therefore, when we are contaminated, our first reaction is to immediately remove the contamination. And during the period of our elimination, we will be at our weakest!”

Xiao Shi’s expression was solemn. Demigod Mu Wen chose to attack Demigod Xingkui at this time. It meant that he had long known that this was their weakest and easiest time to succeed.

This also meant that Demigod Mu Wen had been plotting for a long time! Although Demigod Xingkui, whose body had been penetrated, didn’t die immediately, his body was sealed. He could not use his strength. He could only scream in pain. If this continued, Demigod Xingkui’s vitality would constantly drain away until he was annihilated and dead.

Xiao Shi stared at the Demigod Mu Wen with a dark expression. He said in a deep voice, “I believe that the Demigod Mu Wen is your true body after your rebirth… Martial Emperor!”

Demigod Mu Wen raised his eyebrows. He was a little surprised that Xiao Shi had actually guessed his true identity. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. “You’re very smart, but unfortunately… you came to your senses a little late.”

The other party’s admission made Xiao Shi’s heart sink. He had indeed come to his senses a little late. Previously, he had not associated the Martial Emperor’s true body after his rebirth with these two demigod Heavenly Kings. He thought that the Martial Emperor had been reborn as an inconspicuous Martial Entry- Level martial artist.

Only when Demigod Mu Wen suddenly betrayed him did Xiao Shi understand everything.

Back then, after the Martial Emperor became the divine envoy of High God Blood Sacrifice and broke the condition that he could only be reborn in someone with his bloodline, he chose Demigod Mu Wen and secretly reborn in him without anyone knowing.

After that, he had been active in the Tianwu Continent as the Demigod Mu Wen. It had never revealed any abnormalities.

The Martial Emperor hid it very well. No one suspected that Demigod Mu Wen had long been replaced by the Martial Emperor. Even Xiao Shi did not sense anything abnormal about the Demigod Mu Wen.

Only then did Xiao Shi realize that when the Origin of Extermination appeared, Demigod Mu Wen had been guiding him and Demigod Xingkui to plunder it and deliberately lured them into a trap.

Back then, the reason why Xiao Shi didn’t suspect Demigod Mu Wen was mainly because he felt that as a demigod, he had an uncontrollable fanatical pursuit of the ninth realm of martial arts.

After seeing the opportunity to advance to the ninth realm, he naturally wanted to use this opportunity to try to break through to the ninth realm. In fact, everything was within the Martial Emperor’s calculations.

The Martial Emperor knew very well that a demigod’s pursuit of the ninth realm was the best cover for themselves. Hence, he set up this trap. When he knew that Xiao Shi had chosen to join forces with the two demigod Heavenly Kings, he had already realized that even if he still had an identity that had yet to be exposed, it was difficult for him to attack and kill Demigod Xingkui and Xiao Shi when they were caught off guard.

After all, the three of them had similar strength. They were all demigods. Even if he attacked under unexpected circumstances, he could at most injure them and not kill them directly. This would only expose his identity.

Furthermore, with the death of Demigod Yao Xi, Demigod Xingkui had already become a frightened bird. He hid in his own domain and did not come out. Even if he wanted to first deal with the relatively weak Demigod Xingkui, he didn’t have the chance.
