Chapter 1573: Chapter 571
Zhou Tian certainly had ways to leave if he wanted to; therefore, without any worries of what he may leave behind, he still dared to stick to his plan, even though he was aware that his plan was somewhat unreliable. After all, with conditions like his, even if he failed, he still had the capital to start over from scratch.
Though slightly unscrupulous, since he had such an advantage, Zhou Tian naturally had no reason whatsoever to abandon his edge and confront his opponent head-on. Knowing his own strengths, Zhou Tian deliberately exposed his whereabouts.
According to his plan, Zhou Tian only revealed a few clues to his adversary at that time. However, the Human Emperor did not disappoint Zhou Tian; amidst the countless Cloned Monsters he deployed, even though the weakness Zhou Tian showed wasn’t all that apparent, the Human Emperor still managed to grasp it. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Moreover, with the advantage of having numerous informants at his disposal, the Human Emperor located Zhou Tian in an incredibly short time. As soon as he found Zhou Tian, the Human Emperor chose to ambush him.
If the adversary had truly located Zhou Tian by his own abilities, it was almost certain that Zhou Tian would likely fall prey to the ambush due to being caught unawares. After all, Zhou Tian would never expect to be discovered by the Enemies without any preparations, hence he would naturally be vulnerable to a surprise attack.
But who would have known that the Human Emperor’s ability to find Zhou Tian was due to Zhou Tian intentionally revealing his position? Thus, for the arrival of the Human Emperor, Zhou Tian was already well-prepared. Had the Human Emperor chosen to confront Zhou Tian directly, although Zhou Tian was not afraid, it would have been difficult to defeat him instantly. However, since the Human Emperor wanted to ambush Zhou Tian, Zhou Tian certainly did not mind turning the tables and scheming against his adversary instead.
As a result, though Zhou Tian had long been aware of the Human Emperor finding his hiding place, he still feigned ignorance of the Human Emperor’s arrival at that moment. While Zhou Tian busied himself with his own matters, the Human Emperor, oblivious to the actual situation, naturally thought this presented an Opportunity for an ambush.
Having lived for such a long time, the Human Emperor certainly would not pass up such an opportunity. Everything happened exactly as Zhou Tian anticipated. When the Human Emperor found an opportunity to attack Zhou Tian, he immediately seized it without hesitation.
Carefully concealing his Footprints, the Human Emperor quietly drew near Zhou Tian, and then suddenly sprang into action, lunging directly towards him at that moment.
Given the Human Emperor’s strength, he might not have been able to Kill Zhou Tian in one fell swoop without Zhou Tian being prepared; however, if he simply wanted to inflict severe injury, it would certainly be within his power to do so.
And should Zhou Tian have indeed suffered severe injuries, the Human Emperor could then inform the forces behind him. Generally, those forces might not be able to defeat Zhou Tian, but if Zhou Tian was already gravely injured, they would be fully capable of taking him down, even potentially killing him.
It must be said, at that time the Human Emperor’s plan was quite impressive, it’s just unfortunate that the situation was entirely within Zhou Tian’s calculations. No matter how hard the Human Emperor worked, regardless of whether his plans could actually outmaneuver Zhou Tian, in the end, when he was about to capture Zhou Tian in one fell swoop, not only did he fail to achieve his goal, but he was caught off guard and suffered a setback instead. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
As the Human Emperor pounced towards Zhou Tian, without any accident, he seemingly succeeded in slashing off ’Zhou Tian’s’ head. Yet, just when the Human Emperor thought he had successfully ambushed and beheaded Zhou Tian, Zhou Tian immediately retaliated.
"Boom!"
Almost immediately after the Human Emperor had apparently Killed ’Zhou Tian,’ the very spot where ’Zhou Tian’ was located exploded violently. An Explosion even more powerful than Zhou Tian’s Full Strength suddenly erupted, effectively wreaking havoc.
The noise of the Explosion wasn’t enough to scare the Human Emperor, but at that moment, Zhou Tian had planted dozens of Crystal Bombs underneath his Clone Body. The sheer might of those Crystal Bombs—if their Explosive power was not dispersed—could have easily annihilated the Human Emperor. Even now, although the Human Emperor wasn’t blasted to smithereens, he couldn’t avoid being severely injured from the direct impact of the bombs.
One could say, due to the asymmetry of Information, the current circumstances between Zhou Tian and the Human Emperor were fully reversed from what the Human Emperor originally planned. Caught within Zhou Tian’s trap, the Human Emperor was severely wounded, and for Zhou Tian, to Sealing or eliminating the Human Emperor under such conditions would not be difficult at all.
In fact, just as the Explosions subsided and the Human Emperor crawled out from the Underground, battered and torn, he instantly realized that he had been encircled by Zhou Tian and his subordinate Cloned Beastmen.
