Everyone's gaze turned to the tall man. It was none other than the leader of the Heavenly Court, the Carefree Great Emperor.
Behind the Carefree Great Emperor stood the Nine Li Clan's four greatest experts—the current Four Heavenly Kings of the Heavenly Court.
Taishang Laojun and the others were greatly surprised by the Carefree Great Emperor's arrival. Shouldn't he have been in the Heavenly Court? Why had he come to Kunlun Mountain?
Even if he had come to help Uchiha Shin and Queen Mother of the West, how had he entered Kunlun Mountain?
They had received no news beforehand.
"I heard in the Heavenly Court that you were causing trouble on Kunlun Mountain. At first, I thought it was nothing but nonsense, but after coming here, I found that it was true. Yuanshi Tianzun, you really have some nerve. You actually wanted to arrest Queen Mother of the West. Do you think you have the right?" The Carefree Great Emperor fixed Yuanshi Tianzun with an icy stare.
Yuanshi Tianzun had appeared later than Queen Mother of the West, so she was his senior. For that reason, the Three Pure Ones had never truly done anything to her and had treated her with a measure of respect. So long as Queen Mother of the West was not granted too much power, everything else was negotiable.
Yuanshi Tianzun glanced at the Carefree Great Emperor without saying anything. He naturally knew that what he had just done was inappropriate, but it had still been necessary.
"Although Queen Mother of the West no longer holds office in the Heavenly Court, she is still one of us. Treating her this way means opposing the Heavenly Court—opposing me, the Carefree Great Emperor.
"Fine! If this is what you want, then come on. I'll stand right here.
