The Four Divine Beasts Lord God's Dilemma

"Dragon's Roar? Isn't that from the Four Divine Beasts Family?"

"I remember now. That man is Lockwood, the emissary of Hell's Four Divine Beasts Lord God."

"Then are they trying to kill Sean?"

As some of the people in the Nine Nether Domain who pursued strength, they knew a thing or two about the powerful experts of the world. Sean was one of them.

Less than two hundred thousand years ago, he had been a peak Seven-Star Demon on the Nether Continent. He had gained a little fame, but most people merely knew of him and had not paid him much attention.

That changed after he offended the Four Divine Beasts Family. Later, he became the Death Sovereign's emissary and directly took over the position of Hongyang Prefecture's Prefect Lord. That had made many people want to challenge him. After all, he had been appointed by a Sovereign rather than winning the position by relying on his own strength to challenge the previous Prefect Lord.

Yet the battle unfolding before them had utterly overturned their understanding. Seven other Lord God Emissaries had been killed almost instantly, while more than forty elders of the Four Divine Beasts Family had been blasted from the sky with a single move, crying out in agony.

"A Paragon?"

Several Seven-Star Demons who appeared rather strong gradually spoke in trembling voices.

The Plane War had only just ended, so they did not yet know what had happened within it. But based on Sean's performance just now, there could be no other possibility.

After all, even some suspected Paragons had merely been extraordinarily powerful, easily overwhelming other peak Asuras. There had never been anyone who could casually kill several such opponents in an instant. If that were the case, the word "suspected" could be discarded.

"A Paragon is making a move. Record it quickly."

Quite a few people were beside themselves with excitement. A record of a Paragon making a move was probably even more valuable than a record of a Sovereign acting.

Sean glanced at the distant crowd but did nothing. This was unavoidable. The Nine Nether Domain was filled with God level experts. Once he made a move, someone would certainly record it.

Besides, they were far away, so it did not matter. His actions on the Plane Battlefield had surely been recorded by many people already. Even Floating Shadows of Sovereigns taking action circulated throughout the God Planes.

He looked down again at the Four Divine Beasts elders weeping and clutching their heads. After pondering for a moment, his figure flashed. When he reappeared, he had already seized several Water Element Highgods in his hand.

"M-my lord." The several Water Element Highgods stammered.

A gray light flashed in Sean's eyes, and the eyes of the Water Element Highgods changed color as well. "Record Floating Shadows of the people below, then give every one of them to me. None of them are to be allowed to circulate."

"Yes." The Water Element Highgods answered blankly.

Hell, Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range:

A grim-faced man flew before a grand hall. The guarding soldiers immediately stepped forward with smiles when they saw him. "Elder Bru, the clan leader is in seclusion and cannot receive visitors at the moment."

"I must see him. Tell him I have an urgent matter to discuss with the clan leader." Bru's face was livid as he glared fiercely at the guard who had approached him.

The guard had never seen such a situation before. He had intended to flatter Bru, but instead hurried off to find his captain.

Soon, Bru entered the hall. Gaisreisen, seated above, asked with a smile, "Bru, you were in such a hurry to see me. Could it be that you killed Sean?"

Gaisreisen had always been quite kind toward Bru, who was many generations beneath him but greatly valued by the Sovereigns.

Bru took a breath, looked at the clan leader, and said in a trembling voice, "Clan leader, Sean... he is a Paragon Highgod!"

"What did you say?" Gaisreisen nearly dropped the teacup in his hand in shock. "You are not joking, are you? How could he possibly be a Paragon?"

Bru shook his head. "I do not know what happened either. I had originally lain in ambush in the Nine Nether Domain according to the plan, waiting for our scouts to locate Sean before preparing to besiege him.

I had even accounted for the Death Sovereign's other two Lord God Emissaries. I thought the plan was foolproof, but Sean actually came looking for us himself."

As Gaisreisen listened to Bru's account, his expression gradually turned grim. After Bru finished, he said, "Instantly killing seven Lord God Emissaries and casting Soul Leech on more than forty Seven-star Demons in a single instant... that level of strength truly belongs to a Paragon."

"What do we do now? The strongest Divine Clones of the elders, myself included, have all been controlled by him. Several have already died." Bru said urgently, "If he truly decides to kill us all, then we are finished."

The deaths of seven Lord God Emissaries were certainly a great loss, but Sovereigns could find replacements. However, the family only had around five hundred Seven-Star Level elders in total. Losing forty at once would be crippling.

Most importantly, his strongest Divine Clone and his Saint Domain True Body were both there.

"Do not panic yet." Gaisreisen hurriedly said, "Since this involves a Paragon, we must inform the Lord Gods. I will summon Father now. You can explain everything again afterward."

"Yes." The tension in Bru's heart eased slightly. Once the Lord Gods stepped in, there should not be any problem.

Inside the hall, Gaisreisen took out a Parchment Scroll and silently recited a few words. The Parchment Scroll quickly caught fire, and a strange ripple of energy spread outward.

A large amount of azure-green Sovereign's Might began to gather, soon forming into a burly man. A terrifying aura radiated outward.

"Father, greetings, Lord God." Gaisreisen bowed while Bru knelt.

The Azure Dragon Lord God smiled. "Gaisreisen, Bru, why have the two of you summoned me?"

"It is like this." Gaisreisen briefly explained the matter, and Bru immediately added further details.

"A Paragon? One who cultivates the Death Rule?" A trace of surprise appeared on the Azure Dragon Lord God's face.

Before long, three more types of Sovereign's Might gathered and formed three figures. One of them, a woman surrounded by crimson light, said, "Big Brother, it is true. I went to watch this Plane Decisive Battle. In the passageway, Sean became a Paragon before countless God level experts and the Sovereigns who had come to watch.

But I had not expected him to have such grievances with our Four Divine Beasts Family. Otherwise, I would have directly intervened in this matter as well."

Some Sovereigns went to watch the decisive battle on the Plane Battlefield, while others did not. It depended on personal interest. Many Sovereigns had watched it millions of times already, so they found it dull and boring.

"What matters most now is what we should do." Azure Dragon frowned. "Sean is the Death Sovereign's emissary, and now he is also a Paragon. She will certainly protect him.

If Sean truly kills all of our clansmen, what should we do?"

The other three Lord Gods also fell silent. When facing the Four Great Rule Masters, they did not dare offend them casually. Quite a few Sovereigns in the world coveted them; they merely had not acted because of the various balances of power and the Lord God Agreement.
