The Holy Maiden Uncovers My Coffin When I Just Become An Emperor's Corpse-Chapter 48 - Attack!

Wudao Tian saw the name and became excited.

“Master, Master is first!”

The top in the Daoist Palace Realm within Dongzhou!

“Master is incredible!”

He looked behind Yang Yan, noticing that the fourth and fifth names had also changed.

“It’s Jing Yin and Jingxin!”

These two were disciples of Cihang Jingzhai, now ranking near the top of the Human List!

“It must be Master’s doing!”

Wudao Tian knew clearly of Jing Yin and Jingxin’s level and strength.

The two were indeed little geniuses, but compared to heavenly talents like Leng Bi Yue and Xue Ni Chang, their strength was still far behind.

So the ranks of fourth and fifth could not possibly have been their achievement.

There was only one possibility!

Yang Yan acted and bestowed tokens upon them.

“Being at Master’s side is better than any other time,” he thought to himself.

The achievements of Jing Yin and Jingxin only reinforced his determination to follow Yang Yan.

At this moment, a slight change flickered in his expression, and the hairs on his back stood up.

He sensed numerous eyes on him.

Among these gazes, some bore a cold, piercing intent to kill!

These people intended to attack him!

“Why would someone want to kill me?” Wudao Tian wondered.

“I was once the Sect Master of the Heishui Sect, and I acted cautiously, never offending anyone.

After becoming Master’s servant, I haven’t…”

As he thought about this, his expression suddenly changed.

Why were people targeting him with murderous intent?

The reason dawned on him.

“Master!”

Because Yang Yan was his Master!

“Now that Master ranks first on the Human List, he has become a figure among the top heavenly talents in Dongzhou.

Even though he hasn’t yet defeated every saint heir and genius to dominate the Daoist Palace Realm completely!

But he has already revealed his peerless talent!”

His talent was exposed, and he belonged to none of the Holy Lands, sects, or families present.

Would the elders of these Holy Lands, sects, and families allow a genius to grow unchecked?

“Impossible, Master being the top in the Daoist Palace Realm has limitless future potential.

Step by step, as long as he’s alive, he will be a top existence at every level moving forward.

His road of cultivation will be smooth sailing.

Until he possesses the power to be crowned king, saint, and emperor!

Figures of such strength are the foundation of every Holy Land, sect, and family.

Especially since Master has the potential to enter the sequence, stepping into the Emperor Realm.

Such a talent belongs to no Holy Land.

How would these people be willing to let Master continue to live!”

Wudao Tian did not believe these people would give Yang Yan the chance to grow.

“The Ancient Emperor Road is a path of solitary supremacy.

In the end, only one person can become emperor.

This person stands above the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, ruling the universe.

Holy Lands, sects, families.

In the face of an emperor, they could only pale in comparison and humbly submit.”

For those of high standing and who have always been at the pinnacle, like the Holy Land Saint Masters and Sect Masters, to kneel and bow was more painful than death!

“And the saint heirs of Holy Lands and geniuses of sects.

They are powerful contenders on the Emperor Road of the future.

If Master ascended against the current, their road to becoming emperor would face obstacles.

As the supporting pillars behind these geniuses and saint heirs.

How could they be willing to let Master live?”

Wudao Tian understood.

“So they would want to eliminate Master, who might rise, in his cradle.

As I am Master’s servant, it is natural they would also want to eliminate me.

Destroying everything, uprooting the problem!” Wudao Tian saw through it all.

As for those who wished to kill him, those who planned to make their move.

He could understand their mindset!

The Martial Arts World was inherently cruel.

The road to becoming emperor was even narrower.

So narrow that only one could ascend to the peak!

They would not allow a cultivator outside their Holy Lands and sects to have the possibility of reaching the top!

If their saint heir were to die, this path would be severed.

They would become furious and relentless.

Rather be shattered jade than unbroken tile!

“Among these people, those showing intent to kill.

The most likely are figures from the sects behind the saint heirs who died in the Human List.

They would not let the top-ranked person live in peace.

Of course, others are not without possibility!” Wudao Tian thought.

Anyone could attempt to take his life!

Thud!

A sound broke through the air, and Wudao Tian’s ears perked up.

He flashed aside, dodging the attack.

Bang!

A sharp iron needle pierced the ground, shattering a large slab of bluestone.

The once hotly debating crowd fell silent in an instant.

Seeing Wudao Tian attacked, some immediately understood why he was targeted.

Almost instinctively, they distanced themselves from Wudao Tian.

“Why was he attacked?” some clueless cultivators asked.

“He is the servant of Yang Yan, who ranks first on the Human List!” someone answered.

“His servant?

Then if he was attacked, does that mean someone plans to target Yang Yan?”

“It’s very likely, but the question is whether this Yang Yan can withstand it.”

“Not just one person is moving, it’s possible many others are watching in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to act.

After all, being first on the Human List historically has allowed many to enter the sequence, with unlimited potential.

But there have also been many cultivators who died outside after being listed, ending all opportunities!”

“If he has a guardian or someone from a backing sect to protect him, then he might have a chance to survive.

Otherwise, he won’t survive Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire City!”

“The Ancient Emperor Road is especially difficult, and even if he survives this time, being the first on the Human List will make him a target!”

“His future path will be extremely dangerous!”

Realizing why Wudao Tian was attacked, everyone began to distance themselves from him.

They were just ordinary cultivators, and in the face of figures from Holy Lands, sects, they could be killed with a flick of the finger!

Wudao Tian’s expression was grim, for he still did not know who attacked him.

The opponent’s position was also unclear.

“The hidden danger is the most lethal!”

Thud!

Another sound pierced through, a flash of white light, passing through Wudao Tian’s body.

Wudao Tian’s Four Extremes Secret Realm cultivation didn’t manage to evade this attack.

“Injured!”

Wudao Tian glanced about ten meters behind him.

On a distant wall, a dagger was embedded into it.

“What a sharp dagger!” Wudao Tian said.

Cough, cough, cough!

He finished, and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Kneeling on one knee, his face was pale.

“You attacked me, when my Master comes out, he won’t spare you,” Wudao Tian shouted.

A cold sneer.

“When your Master comes out, kill him too!” a cold voice echoed.

Thud!

In the next moment, another flash of white light shot forth, another person made a move.

This beam of white light flew straight for Wudao Tian’s head.

Wudao Tian used all his strength to dodge the assault.

He fell to the ground, gasping for air.

“I’m finished!” he thought to himself.

The one trying to kill him was a master.

Someone with at least the same cultivation as he!

“Master, from now on, I cannot accompany you,” Wudao Tian murmured to the Human List.

“You must be careful!”

Hum!

The Human List rippled at this moment, and a double-layered sedan appeared in his view.
