"You're right. If I were to attack you now, Hongmeng Daoist and the others would very likely kill me outright. Of course, Lord Creation Immortal King would certainly intervene as well. Yet I did not consult with Lord Creation Immortal King before coming here, because we have had no contact for hundreds of millions of years. I know that Lord Creation Immortal King has always been watching every move of the Heavenly Court and has never left. It is only because of you and that person that he has had no choice but to hide, concealing himself in the shadows. Lord Creation Immortal King has far too many enemies, and those enemies want his life. Given Lord Creation Immortal King's strength, taking his life is fundamentally impossible—unless the Gate of Eternal Life reappears. Otherwise, there is not the slightest possibility."
Calamity Heavenly Lord's voice was vast and filled with an unquestionable, irresistible authority.
But Fang Yu was rather dismissive of that tone. He said calmly, "To put it bluntly, isn't Creation Immortal King just a coward who got scared? If he weren't afraid, why would he dare not show himself? The one he fears, the one he is wary of, is none other than my elder sister, right? He fears my elder sister and Hongmeng Daoist, because both my elder sister and Hongmeng Daoist possess the power to kill him. Especially if they join forces, Creation Immortal King would be practically doomed. Otherwise, he would not have hidden himself for so long. It is precisely because he sensed that my elder sister and Hongmeng Daoist could threaten him that he went into hiding, seeking a solution in the shadows, seeking a way to obtain eternal life from the Gate of Eternal Life. Betting on me is one part of it.
