Luo Bai was overjoyed. He had thought about taking back the Sword of Slaying Immortal when he saw it in the hands of Ran Deng Buddha, but given Ran Deng's formidable strength, Luo Bai was no match for him. The idea had merely flickered through his mind before he suppressed it, never expecting Donghua Emperor would actually help him snatch the sword!
"But, Your Majesty, why didn't you personally deliver the Sword of Slaying Immortal to my master?"
Despite his joy, Luo Bai found something odd. It was clear that Donghua Emperor wanted to curry favor with his master, the Leader of Tongtian, but why didn't he deliver it to the Leader of Tongtian at Greenwave Palace himself?
Donghua Emperor just smiled and didn't answer Luo Bai's question. Luo Bai's eyes shifted, and he realized that it wasn't that Donghua Emperor didn't want to personally hand over the Sword of Slaying Immortal to the Leader of Tongtian, but that he couldn't!
