At that moment, Lei Qiang was seated at a table at the side. On the table, a large amount of information was placed, some information were about the taxes in the areas under the jurisdiction of the White Emperor Palace, and some of information were about the matters that the White Emperor had instructed his subordinates to do.
All of these things were originally given to the head disciple of the White Emperor to take care of, but after the head disciple was killed by Chen Xiao, all of these things basically fell upon Lei Qiang. Now that the White Emperor was out in the open, he passed over the majority of the power in the entire White Emperor Palace to Lei Qiang.
Power was naturally a great temptation to Lei Qiang.
But at the same time, Lei Qiang was also afraid, afraid that the White Emperor would know that he had betrayed his master.
It was precisely because he knew this that Lei Qiang had done it so well during this period of time. It was impossible for others to find any flaws in him.
At this moment, Lei Qiang was frowning in deep thought.
His master had gone out to chase and kill Chen Xiao, and there were a total of three Borderless Stage experts surrounding and annihilating Chen Xiao this time, so logically speaking, there should not be any problems. Under such circumstances, without his own information, it would be impossible for Chen Xiao to be on guard, and he might even be killed by sneak attacks.
Chen Xiao wouldn't tell others about him before he died, right?
Lei Qiang thought with an ugly expression.
Just at this time, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside, followed by the door opening. A Divine King Realm disciple rushed in anxiously, and said to Lei Qiang: "Fifth Brother, it's bad, it's bad!"
"What is it?" How is it proper to panic? Slow down?! Can the sky even collapse? " Lei Qiang's face was filled with displeasure.
The disciple immediately knew that he had disturbed the other person and his face lit up, but he quickly opened his mouth and said, "Master, master's soul token shattered!"
"What did you say?"
Lei Qiang immediately stood up. Even the long table in front of him was instantly flipped over and fell to the ground.
However, Lei Qiang couldn't care less now. He looked at the disciple and asked: "What did you say just now? Master's soul plate had shattered? "How is this possible!?"
As he spoke, Lei Qiang walked out from behind the long table. Without even looking at the disciple, he rushed out.
The disciple was startled, he knew that Lei Qiang must be panicking. After all, the master of the White Emperor Palace was dead, where should they go from here?
Not daring to delay any longer, the disciple quickly chased after Lei Qiang, following him towards the pavilion where the soul plates were kept.
The pavilion was not too far away and both of them were martial artists. They arrived at the top of the pavilion in a short moment.
At this moment, Lei Qiang was standing in the pavilion. His eyes were wide open as he stared at the shattered pieces of the soul plate jade.
That soul plate was his Master's!
It was also only his Master who possessed this kind of golden jade slip, so it was impossible for him to make a mistake.
"How, how is this possible? Could it be that something unexpected happened to Chen Xiao when Master and the rest were to go to the Outer Corridor to kill him? " Lei Qiang found it hard to believe.
Three Borderless Stage Rankers coming out to kill an existence at the Divine Emperor and actually dying inside?
I'm afraid this isn't meant to be a joke?
However, now that the spirit tablet had shattered and the facts were laid out before him, Lei Qiang didn't know what to say.
"You're not allowed to speak a single word of what happened here. Otherwise, I won't forgive you!" Lei Qiang suddenly turned around and looked at that disciple. He said in a deep voice, "From today onwards, you will be the one standing guard here day and night. No one is allowed to enter this pavilion and wait for my orders, understand?"
At this moment, a trace of killing intent was faintly revealed in Lei Qiang's eyes. It was as if that disciple would be killed if he dared to say the word "no".
"Yes!" this disciple understands! " The disciple instantly guessed that Lei Qiang probably wanted to temporarily hide the news of White Emperor's death, so he didn't dare to say half a word of disagreement.
Seeing that this guy was so understanding, Lei Qiang's expression relaxed. He nodded slightly and said, "Then that's it. I'll go report this matter to the Heavenly Court first. Wait for my notification!"
After he finished saying those words, Lei Qiang hurriedly walked out.
When Lei Qiang walked out of the pavilion, his expression had returned to its usual calmness and calmness.
At this moment, it was impossible to tell anything from his face.
However, if one observed carefully, one would be able to see that Lei Qiang was frowning slightly.
While heading back, Lei Qiang quickly thought of a plan to deal with it.
Master had died. This meant that from today onwards, the entire White Emperor Palace was controlled by him alone. Furthermore, there was no need to worry about White Emperor suddenly appearing to cause trouble for him!
However, he didn't dare say anything to anyone right now, because he couldn't guarantee that his Master would truly be dead even if his soul tablet were to shatter.
Whether it was him or the White Emperor, he had to first cover up the news of White Emperor's death. It was to make things easier for him, and at the same time, it was to explain to the White Emperor.
Otherwise, as soon as the spirit tablet shattered, it would hurriedly announce White Emperor's death. What if White Emperor didn't come back in the future, how would he be asked?
You want to rebel?
In the next period of time, he would first report it to the Heavenly Court, and report the broken White Emperor's soul plate to Dao Emperor. As for whether or not the Dao Emperor would interfere with this matter, he could not decide, and could not guess, but he had to report it.
Other than that, he also had to take advantage of everyone else knowing about this matter to control all of the power within the White Emperor Palace in his own hands.
Firstly, it was to prevent the others in the White Emperor Palace from fighting for power after discovering that their Master had died. Secondly, it was to make it easier for him to execute a plan to centralize his power.
Once he completely controlled the White Emperor Palace, he would have to wait a little longer. If his Master didn't bring back the slightest bit of information, then it wouldn't be too late for him to announce the news of his Master's death. By then, the entire White Emperor Palace would be under his control.
In order to stabilize the human heart, he had no choice but to take advantage of this opportunity to massacre the entire White Emperor Palace. Just wait for the White Emperor to return and immediately hand over all the power he had in his hands.
At that time, not only would Master not blame him, she would praise him instead.
After all, he had seen a lot of people split up and fall apart after the death of the pillar above. He knew what he had to do to maximize the benefits.
After going back, Lei Qiang immediately started cultivating and used the communication channels between White Emperor and his superior to send out the information.
Immediately after, a series of plans was set up for the White Emperor Palace.
First, he called back all the people who were roaming around searching for the Mysterious Sect, and then he started to empty the space around the remaining honorary disciples, as well as the power of the guards. Then, he started to target the more troublesome people.
A bloodbath, had just begun in White Emperor Palace!
