"A Heavenly Palace Divine Lord!"
Nearly two star regions away, Demon King Huyan and Blood Leech Divine Lord wore dark expressions. Demon King Huyan was beside himself with rage. "That idiot kept dragging his feet and wasting time!"
"Now look what's happened. He's actually run into a Heavenly Palace Divine Lord."
Demon King Huyan was so furious he wanted to curse.
He had sent Demon King Ranba to the Heavenly Origin Star Region to gather information, but Demon King Ranba had dawdled the entire way.
More than half a year had passed, and he had only reached the outskirts of the Heavenly Origin Star Region.
Now he had even run into a Divine Lord of the Heavenly Palace.
Although she was only a top-tier Eternal Divine Lord and was not particularly powerful, the problem was...
If Demon King Ranba killed her, the Divine Lords of the Heavenly Palace would learn of it immediately and arrive ahead of time to provide support.
When that happened...
They would have no choice but to flee in disgrace.
But it was already too late to avoid her. She had discovered Demon King Ranba.
"Demon King Ranba, kill her!"
Demon King Huyan gave the order without hesitation, transmitting his voice grimly. "Kill her and enter the Heavenly Origin Star Region at once. If Qin Hao isn't there, the two of us will immediately cover your retreat."
Despite those words, Demon King Huyan and Blood Leech Divine Lord remained rooted to the spot.
They had no intention whatsoever of stepping forward to fight.
For one thing, she was only a top-tier Eternal Divine Lord. Demon King Ranba was strong enough to contend with her.
For another...
Neither of them wanted to put himself in danger lightly.
*Damn it, he still wants me to go to
