Even lies had to face the facts.
Looking across heaven and earth, not even the Imperial Court, the strongest Overlord-level faction, could possess so many Quasi-Overlord Level beings. Azure Dragon Protector's words were an obvious lie!
Could it be that Azure Dragon Protector wanted to claim he came from a faction even stronger than the Imperial Court?
Utterly ridiculous!
Hearing Emperor Dragon Lord's words, the Twelve Protectors present all laughed, their laughter dripping with contempt.
White Tiger Protector and Azure Dragon Protector even doubled over with laughter, rocking back and forth.
Emperor Dragon Lord's expression darkened, and he narrowed his eyes. "What are you laughing at?"
Rat Protector bared his teeth in a grin. "Of course we're laughing at your ignorance! You don't really think the Imperial Court is the strongest faction beneath heaven and earth, do you? Hehehe..."
Gold Ox Protector said, "It seems your status in the Imperial Court is not low, but having remained in the Three Thousand Dao Domains for so long, you know too little. The Emperor Lord and Empress never told you certain things."
Emperor Dragon Lord said in a deep voice, "The Emperor Lord and Empress never told me certain things? What are you trying to say?"
White Tiger Protector crossed his arms over his chest. "The Emperor Lord is an extraordinary figure, worthy of admiration. But have you ever heard him personally claim that the Imperial Court is the strongest force beneath heaven and earth, beyond comparison? No?"
Azure Dragon Protector said, "Think carefully. Has the Emperor Lord ever said anything like that? You are also a Quasi-Overlord Level being. You should understand what I mean."
Emperor Dragon Lord frowned.
Azure Dragon Protector's words made his heart skip a beat. Indeed, the Emperor Lord had never said such things.
No matter how
