Why hadn't Devil Emperor Chi You crushed a few Descended Immortal Gods before he died, when he knew death was certain, knew he had little time left, and understood perfectly well the peril facing the Great Huan Dynasty?!
While nursing his resentment and anger toward Human Emperor Xuanyuan, Xiao Ying could not help silently pondering his own side's predicament.
Recalling Devil Emperor Chi You's several secret voice transmissions, he could easily imagine that preserving the Witch Clan's legacy and pursuing heaven-slaying enlightenment mattered most to Chi You. He had little affection for the Great Huan Dynasty, and perhaps barely any goodwill toward it at all. Otherwise, he would never have let over a hundred million Great Huan soldiers die unjustly under Heavenly Punishment!
Of course, this probably had something to do with two factors: the Yingzhou army made up more than half the Great Huan Faction, and Human Emperor Xuanyuan's bloodline was intermingled throughout its ranks!
