"Hmph!"
"When did our demon race ever speak disrespectfully of the Dao Ancestor?"
"On the other hand, East Prince, you are merely the Immortal Head appointed by the Dao Ancestor. You act unfairly, lack sufficient strength, and are utterly incapable of governing Hong Huang!"
"Once this matter is over, we shall go to Zixiao Palace and petition the Dao Ancestor to strip you of your position as head of the male immortals!"
At that moment, Di Jun's aura surged as he took a sharp step forward, blazing power erupting from his body.
Though East Prince was at the Quasi-Saint Peak, he was simply not worth mentioning before the demon race.
Even if Saints spoke up for him, those Saints would not attack the demon race for the sake of one East Prince.
Since that was the case, they might as well cripple East Prince, flatten the Immortal Court, and replace it.
"Impudent!"
"You dare disrespect the Immortal Emperor?"
At that moment, numerous immortals of the Immortal Court rushed over and loudly berated Di Jun and Taiyi.
West Queen Mother's expression tightened slightly, but she moved closer to East Prince as well.
After all, this concerned the Immortal Court's dignity. Even if she believed East Prince had acted improperly, it was not appropriate to expose it now.
"The impudent ones are you!"
"This Emperor and my second brother govern the countless Living Beings of the demon race. Do you think we fear a few Rogue Cultivators like you?"
"Where are the Demon Gods?"
"Jiu Ying is here!"
"Bai Ze is here!"
"Ying Zhao is here!"
"Gui Che is here!"
At once, Demon Gods at the Quasi-Saint level rushed over from afar, gathering behind Di Jun and Taiyi in an instant.
Even more Yao Race Warriors swarmed forward, swiftly forming a Demon Race Army of over a million and surrounding the Immortal Court's forces.
"Are the demon race and the Immortal Court about to fight?"
"Interesting. I was already finding this arena challenge dull, yet such a spectacle has appeared!"
"Fall back quickly, or we might get dragged in once they start fighting!"
The Myriad Races of Hong Huang Experts all retreated into the distance, no longer paying attention to the challenges on the arenas.
Compared to battles between Grand Unity Golden Immortals, clashes among top experts seemed far more interesting.
"Hm?"
"Why are there no more challengers?"
At that moment, Kong Xuan had just finished a battle and was preparing to begin the next one when he suddenly discovered that no one remained around the arena.
The demon race and Immortal Court members had all rushed back toward their respective factions, with no intention of challenging anyone.
Meanwhile, the Myriad Races Expert had all withdrawn far away, waiting for the demon race and Immortal Court to begin fighting.
"Boring!"
"Truly boring!"
Muttering to himself, Kong Xuan sat cross-legged and looked toward the demon race and the Immortal Court.
"Di Jun, Taiyi, you have defied your superiors! Your crimes deserve execution!"
"East Prince, you started this conflict. Unless you atone with your death, every living being of the Immortal Court shall be annihilated!"
"You... do you truly think This Emperor fears your demon race?"
In midair, East Prince, Di Jun, and Taiyi all shouted furiously at one another.
Curses and taunts rang out without end.
At this moment, the Myriad Races of Hong Huang Expert supported the demon race more. After all, the demon race was powerful, while East Prince had relied on his position as Immortal Head to suppress the Myriad Races of Hong Huang everywhere. Many experts had long been dissatisfied with him.
Even the Witch Race, which had always disliked the demon race, moved closer to the demon race's side at this time.
Of course, the Ancestral Witches did not truly intend to assist the demon race. They merely wished to strike at a crucial moment and reap the benefits.
As the two factions were about to fight, Laozi's expression darkened slightly overhead.
"The challenges for the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking's Grand Unity Golden Immortal Cultivation Battle Power Ranking have not yet ended. Do you intend to start a war at such a time?"
"If so, this old man will have no choice but to intervene!"
Laozi's voice carried astonishing Saintly might, causing East Prince and the Two Great Demon Emperors' expressions to harden.
"Big brother is right. If you affect my disciple's reward collection, do not blame this venerable one for suppressing all of you together!"
Tongtian stepped forward as well, sword intent rapidly spreading from his body and making everyone's hearts tremble.
Terrifying Saintly might followed, pressing down upon both the demon race and the Immortal Court.
"Hmph!"
"Di Jun, Taiyi, if Laozi and Saint Tongtian had not spoken, This Emperor would surely have suppressed your demon race today!"
"Once this matter is over, This Emperor shall go to Zixiao Palace and petition to have your positions as Demon Emperors stripped away!"
East Prince snorted first, then withdrew his aura and led the Immortal Court's people back.
Compared with the Witch Race and the demon race, the Immortal Court had been established for far too short a time. Its strength was far inferior to that of the demon race.
If the demon race truly disregarded the Dao Ancestor's might and fought them, his side would undoubtedly suffer.
Thus, once Laozi and Tongtian spoke, he immediately found himself a way out and backed down.
"East Prince, this karma has not yet been settled!"
"Before long, my brothers and I shall lead the demon race experts to Penglai Island and enter the Immortal Court to have a proper discussion with you!"
Although Di Jun and Taiyi wished to kill East Prince outright, the Saints had already spoken. If they forcibly began a battle again, they might be suppressed by the Saints.
However, they naturally could not let this matter rest so easily. If the demon race wished to dominate Hong Huang, it would have to sweep aside the Immortal Court, this obstacle.
After the demon race and Immortal Court forces separated, the Myriad Races of Hong Huang Expert all revealed disappointed expressions.
They had thought that even if a large-scale battle did not break out, Di Jun and Taiyi would at least exchange a few rounds with East Prince and West Queen Mother.
Instead, there had been much thunder but little rain. No fight had broken out at all.
Thus, they turned their attention back to the ten arenas.
At that moment, Yuan Hong on Arena Number Nine had already reached the decisive stage of his battle with Maitreya.
Although Maitreya had discovered Yuan Hong's weakness, Yuan Hong's physical strength surpassed Maitreya's by a margin. In the end, Yuan Hong relied on his formidable power to blast Maitreya away.
However, though he had won that battle, it was no longer as easy as before.
At that moment, Taiyi Zhenren rushed over. Taking advantage of the Myriad Races Experts' focus on the conflict between the demon race and the Immortal Court, he became the new challenger.
Not long afterward, Yuan Hong recovered his mana and began a new challenge. Taiyi Zhenren's figure flashed over, landing directly on the arena.
"Yuan Hong, I advise you to get off this arena immediately. Perhaps you may still have a chance to live!"
"Otherwise, I shall take your life!"
Taiyi Zhenren had followed Yuanshi's guidance and learned many of Yuan Hong's weaknesses. So long as nothing went wrong, Yuan Hong would surely lose.
"Hmph!"
"I refuse to believe that you can defeat me!"
"Kill!"
Yuan Hong shouted angrily and lunged straight at Taiyi Zhenren.
At first, Taiyi Zhenren fell into a disadvantage, with every collision seeming perilous.
However, the situation soon began to reverse. He suppressed Yuan Hong and even forced him into a corner of the arena.
"No way, Yuan Hong has actually fallen into a disadvantage!"
"Could this Chan Sect disciple truly win?"
"Hm?"
"Taiyi Zhenren is strong, but shouldn't his strength be inferior to Yuan Hong's?"
