Taiyi Issued an Imperial Decree to Slaughter the Human Race? None of the Great Powers Across the Heavens Intervened?

"Damn it!"

"You actually devoured humans!"

"Don't you know that the Holy Mother of our race is the sovereign of your Demon Race?"

"You..."

Suiren Shi, Youchao Shi, and Ziyi Shi's expressions changed drastically, their eyes already bloodshot.

At that moment, they realized they could not force Nine Infant back at all, and stormy waves rose in their hearts.

"Hahaha!"

"Ants will always be ants!"

"Though they do taste rather good!"

"It seems Demon Race Empress Nuwa created a great many blood meals for our Demon Race!"

"In that case, this Demon God shall let you experience the supreme might of the Demon Race today!"

After swallowing several hundred humans, Nine Infant vaguely sensed that his aura had actually risen somewhat.

All nine of his heads trembled, and traces of greed surfaced in his eyes.

Just Now, when he swallowed those several hundred humans, it had merely been a test. He wanted to see how the many Great Powers fighting over that Innate Spiritual Treasure would react.

In the end, he received not the slightest rebuke.

In other words, Your Majesty and the Eastern Emperor did not care whether the Human Race lived or died.

And Demon Race Empress Nuwa most likely did not care either.

With that being the case, what did he have left to fear?

"Nine Infant!"

"You commit violence on the lands of our Witch Race—do you take this Great Witch for a mere decoration?"

"Even if they are a pack of ants, it is not your Demon Race's turn to make them into blood meals, is it?"

"..."

Yet at this moment, Xing Tian standing opposite Nine Infant was somewhat displeased.

The Human Race had survived under the Witch Race's might for so long, yet now they had become the Demon Race's blood meals. Was the Witch Race to gain nothing at all?

"What?"

"These are blood meals created by our Demon Race Empress Nuwa!"

"Does your Witch Race intend to contend with our Demon Race for them?"

"If that is the case, this Demon God will wipe all of you out as well. That would not count as defying the Dao Ancestor's Imperial Decree!"

Nine Infant raised half his heads and looked at Xing Tian, killing intent surging within his icy gaze.

"Kehehehe!"

"Brother Nine Infant, pay no mind to this Great Witch!"

"If he wishes to fight, I shall join Brother Nine Infant and kill him!"

At that moment, an enormous black Demon Bird sped down from Buzhou Mountain.

It was none other than Gui Che, one of the Demon Race's Demon Gods.

Shaking his head, he glanced at Xing Tian before looking toward the Human Race and continuing, "The Eastern Emperor's Imperial Decree: the Human Race has shown disrespect toward Demon Race Demon Gods and must be punished. Hand over half the Human Race as blood meals for the Demon Race, and submit their divine souls to the Eastern Emperor as materials for refining treasures..."

When Nine Infant had devoured the humans Just Now, Taiyi had vaguely sensed a strand of mysterious power within human divine souls. They were excellent materials for refining treasures.

Thus, he ordered Gui Che to come and proclaim the Imperial Decree.

First, it could stockpile blood meals for the Demon Race. Second, it could gather materials for refining treasures. Third, it could enslave the Human Race. Fourth, it could take the opportunity to intimidate the Myriad Races of the Primordial World.

Naturally, it could also make the entire Demon Race understand that the two Golden Crow brothers were the true sovereigns of the Demon Race.

Even Nuwa, a Saint, could not control the Demon Race.

"Don't even think about it!"

"How could we hand over our clansmen!"

"Fight them to the death!"

"..."

Upon hearing Gui Che's words, the humans all glared furiously and let out wave after wave of roars.

Meanwhile, Xing Tian and the many ancestral witch warriors nearby revealed expressions as though watching a play and did not continue to intervene.

Suiren Shi, Youchao Shi, and Ziyi Shi exchanged glances, their expressions all becoming incomparably grave.

One Demon God had already exceeded what they could handle.

Now another had arrived, bringing with him the Demon Race Eastern Emperor's Imperial Decree.

If they truly fought, the Human Race might face the danger of extermination.

At that thought, the Human Race Three Ancestors simultaneously knelt before the statue of the Holy Mother within their ancestral land.

"Suiren Shi!"

"Youchao Shi!"

"Ziyi Shi!"

"We respectfully invite the Holy Mother to descend, protect the human race, and drive away the Demon Race!"

"..."

The voices of the Human Race Three Ancestors resounded through heaven and earth, as though they wished to invite Nuwa to manifest her divinity and safeguard the life and death of the human race.

"We respectfully invite the Holy Mother to descend and protect our human race!"

"We respectfully invite the Holy Mother..."

At this moment, the countless humans could not help but kneel before Nuwa's statue as well, reverence written across every face.

The commotion among the human race naturally alerted the many Great Powers atop Buzhou Mountain.

"Hmph!"

"They are merely a pack of ants. They dared show disrespect to our Demon Race, yet still dream of having Empress Nuwa step forward to shield them and help them escape punishment?"

"What a joke!"

"..."

Di Jun and Taiyi could not help but sneer.

Those words were not merely spoken to themselves. They were also meant for the surrounding experts, a display of the Demon Race's might.

Though Nether River Ancestor and the others frowned deeply, none of them intervened.

The affairs of the human race and the Demon Race had nothing to do with them in the end.

They only cared about when the Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures would emerge, and whether they could seize one.

"Di Jun, Taiyi, your Demon Race truly knows only how to bully the weak!"

"If not for the agreement with Hongjun Dao Ancestor, would you dare run wild beyond the Witch Race's territory?"

"..."

The many Ancestral Witches all snorted coldly at this moment.

Under ordinary circumstances, the Witch Race might have stepped in and slain those Demon Gods, displaying the Witch Race's supreme might.

But now, they were facing off against numerous experts and had no mind to concern themselves with the human race.

After all, the human race had been created by Nuwa.

And Nuwa was a Saint on the Demon Race's side. The Witch Race had never been on good terms with her to begin with, so what did the Demon Race's attack on the human race have to do with them?

The Witch Race had already shown Nuwa enough face by allowing the human race to survive beneath Buzhou Mountain for so long.

"Junior Sister Nuwa!"

"At a time like this, do you, the Holy Mother of the human race, not intend to step forward?"

"..."

At this moment, Tongtian seemed somewhat unable to bear watching any longer and coldly questioned Nuwa.

"As long as This Palace is here, the human race will not perish!"

"Pass down This Palace's decree: in the matter between the Demon Race and the human race, stop while you are ahead. Do not go too far, and under no circumstances may the human race be exterminated!"

Nuwa replied indifferently. She seemed unwilling to appear in person at this time and merely issued a decree.

"Junior Sister Nuwa speaks rightly!"

"The human race cannot be destroyed!"

"However, the human race must undergo this tribulation!"

"Third Brother, do not concern yourself with such trivial matters!"

At that moment, Taiqing's voice rang out as well.

As soon as those words fell, Tongtian's brows knitted tightly. The step he had already taken was withdrawn once more.

Not long ago, he had confronted Taiqing and Saint Nuwa. It would not be appropriate to start another dispute over the human race now.

Thus, among the Great Powers filling the skies, not a single one stepped forward to speak for the human race.

No matter how the humans cried out, the statue of the Human Race Holy Mother showed not the slightest reaction.

"Hahaha!"

"You ants, do you know nothing besides begging Empress Nuwa?"

"Could Empress Nuwa possibly protect you for all eternity?"

"Hurry and accept the Eastern Emperor's decree, then hand over half your clansmen!"

"..."

Sensing this scene, Nine Infant and Gui Che both revealed faintly ferocious expressions and burst into hearty laughter.

At this moment, within the Thunder Tribulation Divine Palace!

Mo Wen, who had been watching the scene of treasures emerging atop Buzhou Mountain, suddenly noticed a scene involving the Human Race appearing on one of the Thunder Tribulation Divine Palace's side walls.

His brows immediately furrowed, and an icy killing intent filled his eyes.

These Demon Race members could fight over treasures if they wanted, and slaughter the Witch Race if they wanted—but why had they gone to run wild among the Human Race?

Before becoming the Tribulation Lightning Spirit, he had also been human!

Though not a human of the Primordial World, nor the "Holy Mother..."

Even so, how could he stand by and watch these grotesque-looking creatures devour and slaughter his own kind in the Primordial World?
