Everyone immediately agreed with the Demon Emperor's words.
"As you command, Your Majesty."
They were all thrilled and excited, their eyes filled with respect.
At this point, Human Sovereign Fuxi spoke. "I thought I sensed an unusual aura just now. I assumed a great battle had broken out here. Fortunately, nothing happened."
"Do you know where that expert's burst of power came from just now?"
