The starry sky was deathly still, like water.
The supreme beings of the Divine Dao Demon Race filling the heavens fell silent. They did not dare fight, yet were unwilling to retreat, every step fraught with difficulty.
At this moment, many supreme beings of the Divine Dao Demon Race recalled the late period of the Myriad Laws Immortal Dynasty, tens of millions of years ago, after the Myriad Laws Ancient Emperor had passed away but before the dynasty had collapsed, when the Divine Dao Demon Race had only begun to revive.
Those times had been so difficult.
The lofty immortal phoenixes had been plucked-feather livestock raised by the Human Race Immortal Order. True dragons had served as carriages, pulling the noble scions of the Immortal Dynasty everywhere, while Bixi bore heavy burdens and carried whole mountain ranges on their backs.
The deities had suffered even more miserably, serving as slaves and servants, governing wind and rain and laboring for the human race, becoming maids and the like.
All that miserable past had ended with the revival of the Divine Dao Demon Race. It had all drifted far away, forgotten by this generation of deities and immortal beings because it was too distant.
Yet!
Yet now, was all of this going to begin again?
Begin again?
Brutal madness surfaced in the eyes of many deities and immortal beings.
"Your Majesty,"
"Must you truly exterminate us all?"
The Taiyin Divine Lord was incomparably weak. Giving a deep formal bow, she said, "Deities are also Your Majesty's children, also Your Majesty's servants. We too can swear loyalty to you, sweep clean the four directions for you, and never betray you. Would we not be easier to trust than the fickle human race powerhouses?"
"May Your Majesty show this lowly concubine a little pity."
