"The Emperor Realm fighters across from us are no weaklings. If we fight them to the death, even a victory will be a Pyrrhic one. We must not underestimate them," Eel Thunder Emperor said.
But Fang Yun said, "Wolf Lun Emperor's reaction feels wrong to me. Something is off about him."
Eel Thunder Emperor paused, then nodded. "Now that you mention it, thinking back carefully on Wolf Lun Emperor's expression, something was indeed wrong. His reaction to us was completely different from those of the other Emperor Realm fighters and Great Demon Kings."
"Two monsters. You even noticed that. Thank goodness you aren't enemies," Emperor Xiangyi muttered.
"Right." Emperor Shui Ku agreed with Emperor Xiangyi for once.
At that moment, the Silver Emperor declared, "We originally intended to avenge our dead friends, but this is the Starfall Sea, after all. This is Emperor Land, and you did not attack us directly, so we can spare you. However, you must provide some compensation. After all, many of our friends died because of you. If you offer no compensation at all, once word spreads, your reputation in Dragon City will be finished."
"Compensate you? Dream on!" Yungen King was the first to object.
Fang Yun said, "How laughable. We risked death to open a path ahead, while you not only tried to reap the benefits without doing the work, but even plotted against us. Yet now you claim you entered Wind-Thunder Gorge by coincidence. Do you take us for three-year-olds? Let me make this clear: I regret not killing every last one of you in Wind-Thunder Gorge."
"How dare you!" The Silver Emperor blazed with fury, like a sovereign.
"Except for Emperor Xiangyi, no one who dares enter Emperor Land is timid. Put away that nauseating act. Without your puppets, you're nothing!
