The Fox Emperor's words complemented the Cat Emperor's earlier words perfectly.
All the demons present nodded furtively. 'So that's how it is. It looks like our speculations are quite reasonable. Perhaps we're witnessing the beginning of a huge change in the Demon Clan today!'
'The Phoenix Emperor is really too much.'
Hearing the Fox Emperor distort the truth, the Phoenix Emperor's years of self-restraint was so infuriated that he rolled his eyes.
However, the Fox Emperor's words were agreed with by all the demons present, be it friend or foe.
'Lord Phoenix Emperor, you came with a purpose. You want to target the Cat Emperor. Although it's against your brotherhood, it's also a sign of your loyalty to the Demon Emperor. You can just say it. We can understand!'
They weren't fools.
But was it really a good idea to go around in circles and do all sorts of things?!
Finally, some demons could not hold it in any longer.
The clear sky was suddenly covered by darkness. A golden-winged roc appeared in the air and slowly descended. It was none other than the Roc Emperor. "Your Majesty, on account of our many years of friendship, please let Brother Cat go! He's already sacrificed thousands of years … Even if he's guilty, it's time to make up for it. "
The Roc Emperor sighed. "If Your Majesty is unwilling to let this matter rest and blames me, I'm willing to share the blame with Brother Phoenix."
The Phoenix Emperor was dumbfounded.
'F * ck, why are you causing trouble!'
Today's matter seemed to have been planned by the Nine-Lives Cat Clan to save the Cat Emperor, but in fact, it was Yun Yang who had added fuel to the fire and made it happen. There was also the Fox Emperor's scheme. The three parties' encounter had finally led to such a delicate situation.
'I've already said more than once that I have no intention of killing the Cat Emperor. I only want Yun Yang. Why are you causing trouble, Roc Emperor?
What has this got to do with you? How are you sharing the blame? '
However, the Roc Emperor was not the only one who had come to cause trouble. It was not just the Fox Emperor and the Roc Emperor who were watching from the sidelines.
The Roc Emperor's appearance naturally stirred up a large number of people.
First, a large tiger tore through space and came over. It immediately turned into a muscular human and said, "Brother Phoenix, please let Brother Cat go."
It was the Tiger King!
Almost at the same time, the Leopard Emperor also tore through space and came over. "Brother Feng, we've been brothers for tens of thousands of years. There's no need to be so ruthless, right?"
A moment later, a huge ox appeared. It was the Ox Sovereign. "Brother Feng, why must you do this?"
Then, a golden-bright monkey holding a stick appeared. The Monkey King also came. "Brother Feng, let the cat go!"
The Eagle Emperor flapped his wings and flew over. "Brother Phoenix, I'll plead for Brother Cat. Back then, Brother Cat saved my life. If I don't repay this kindness, I will be a demon in vain. "
"…"
Several Martial Emperors arrived one after another.
Yun Yang finally heaved a sigh of relief.
It seemed like the Cat Emperor was quite popular back then.
This is truly worthy of my plan.
Yun Yang was completely relieved.
Surrounded by the emperors, the Fox Emperor looked at the Phoenix Emperor with sparkling eyes and said faintly, "Brother Phoenix, stop when it's time to stop. Don't use too much scheming, especially the kind that will chill everyone's hearts. It's better to use it less!"
Even at this moment, the Fox Emperor was still trying to make things difficult for the Phoenix Emperor, brazenly going head-on in front of so many emperors! There was only one meaning in his words: You want to deal with the Cat Emperor!
The group of sovereigns all had angry expressions on their faces.
If the Demon Sovereign Race did this, it would be understandable, but if the Phoenix Emperor did this, wouldn't it chill the hearts of his brothers?
The shadows of various demonic beasts appeared continuously in the air.
The fox race, the tiger race, the ox race, the eagle race, the roc race, the monkey race, the leopard race …
One by one, the Saint Monarchs arrived silently and stood behind the monarchs of the various races, silently supporting their own kings!
The Phoenix Emperor shouted angrily, "This is the third time I reiterate the main point of this battle! I have no intention of dealing with the Cat Emperor. The current situation is that there's a human hiding in the Cat Emperor's group! It's Yun Yang, the one who caused chaos in the Demon Race! Do you know? This person is a great threat to the Demon Race! He must be eliminated! No matter what anyone says, it's useless! "
The Fox Emperor smiled mockingly and said, "Brother Phoenix, I thought you were a good brother, everyone's good brother … I still remember that you once protected the Cat Clan in secret. You also confronted the Demon Sovereign about Brother Cat's case … you even personally asked us to protect Brother Cat, so that the Nine-Lives Cat Clan's bloodline would not end."
"It's because of this that we brothers have always respected you. We all think of you as a good brother. A person who truly does things for our brothers … "
"We respect you and have never doubted you."
"But now it seems that Brother Phoenix's foresight is truly awe-inspiring and daunting …" The Fox Emperor's dark gaze gradually turned cold. "I know the human you speak of. I'm the only demon among the emperors of the Demon Race who's seen his true form, but Yun Yang is really just a second-level Supreme Saint ant. It's this ant that has become your excuse. Because of such a Supreme Saint human, you're forcing a Supreme Saint Sovereign to his death at all costs … Why can't I see that a Supreme Saint child is so powerful?"
"Is this the reason you're giving us?"
The Fox Emperor's face was full of mockery. "Even if your reason is dignified, and it's for the sake of the Demon Clan's future, and there's nothing wrong with it, I, the Nine-tailed White Fox, still want to say this clearly here. Even if that human is very dangerous, for the sake of my brother, I choose to let him go so that he won't be put in a spot!"
"Once Brother Cat escapes unscathed, everything else can be discussed. Whether it's you capturing that human yourself, or letting us attack together, or even forcing him to leave the Demon Race to prevent more lives from being lost … these are all things that can be planned slowly!"
"Why do you have to do this? Are you trying to force a demon into a corner? "
Emperor Roc and the others felt that the Fox Emperor's words made too much sense!
Phoenix Emperor, you're making a clear stand now. You're using a mere Supreme Saint human as an excuse to make things difficult for your good brother of tens of thousands of years. This reason is too clumsy!
It can't be refuted at all!
As for saying that the human can threaten the future of the Demon Race?
All the emperors laughed. When Brother Cat is not involved, we won't refute what you said. Who asked you to be the wisest person in the Demon Race? It's understandable that you want to prevent trouble before it happens, it's understandable!
But now … they could only chuckle.
How could they understand?!
The Demon Emperors looked at the Phoenix Emperor and sneered.
I originally thought that you were very loyal, but from the looks of it … Heh heh, you've finally exposed your true nature …
Or perhaps, the Phoenix Emperor has always been the Demon Emperor's good brother. Wouldn't that explain everything?!
The Fox Emperor said indifferently, "Brother Phoenix, I'll ask you one last question now. Do you dare to answer me?"
The Phoenix Emperor suppressed the urge to vomit blood. "Ask!"
"Back then, after the Nine-lives Cat race suffered a huge change, the eight of us secretly discussed … to keep some seeds for the cats. We worked together and secretly arranged for all the cultivators above the third-grade Supreme Saint Venerate in the Nine-lives Cat race. However, after a period of time, most of these cat powerhouses met with unforeseen events. They were either directly killed or captured … I've always found this matter strange.
"Although our actions were done without the Demon Emperors' knowledge, eight Demon Emperors joined forces. In terms of strength and influence, they're all at the peak of the Demon Race. Yet, we were still unable to protect the cat people. There must be a reason for this, right?!" The Fox Emperor said indifferently, enunciating each word clearly, "Previously, we only thought that it was done by the Heavenly Hound. But from the looks of it now, I only have one question for you: Did you do this?!"
The moment the Fox Emperor asked this question, the Cat Emperor immediately turned his head and looked at the Phoenix Emperor with a gaze as sharp as a blade.
Then, he asked in a low voice, "Brother Phoenix, was it really you?"
Beside the Fox Emperor, seven or eight Demon Emperors looked at the Phoenix Emperor with eyes as sharp as knives. This matter … was already strange back then! Now … could it be … really? …
The Phoenix Emperor vomited a mouthful of golden blood. He closed his eyes weakly and laughed bitterly. "Fox Emperor, you win! Cat, go! "
He waved his hand. "Make way! Let them go! "
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the killing formation set up by 99 Great Sage powerhouses was no longer as murderous after the Phoenix Emperor's order. The originally impenetrable seal of heaven and earth showed faint cracks.
However, at this moment, a golden dragon slithered over. It came at lightning speed and sent a message from afar. "His Majesty has decreed that the traitor Nine-lives Cat must not be allowed to leave the Demon Soul Prison. If he resists, kill him!"
Hearing this, the eyes of the Demon Emperors, led by the Tiger King, burned with killing intent. You, Long Yutian, have already imprisoned the Nine-lives Demon Emperor for so many years. Now, you still want to kill him? This is too much!
This is your good brother from back in the day!
If you can be so cruel to him, then … my relationship with you is not even as good as Nine-lives Cat's!
The Phoenix Emperor opened his eyes abruptly. Two flames shot out from his eyes and shot straight up into the sky. With a whoosh, the flames had already ignited the first-stage Great Sage golden dragon in the sky.
With a soft poof, the golden dragon instantly turned into a huge torch. In just a short while, the golden dragon was completely incinerated. Both its body and soul were destroyed. Nothing was left!
That was the Phoenix Empress' Nirvana True Flames that she had nowhere to vent her anger. Although the golden dragon was also a low-level Holy Sage, how could it resist it? It died without knowing why or how it died!
As the golden dragon was incinerated, the formation on the other side opened up a wide path.
Nine-lives Cat laughed loudly. His eight clones suddenly returned to his original body. He walked over with his head held high. "Follow me!"
The Phoenix Emperor took a deep breath and tried hard to control himself. However, his voice was still trembling. "Brother Cat, after today … what will be our relationship in the future?"
The Cat Emperor paused for a moment and said indifferently, "In front of all of you, I, Old Cat, will not lie … I, Cat Yunxiao, will remember all of you for protecting me today! However, from today onwards, I will be Long Yutian's mortal enemy! The lives of two billion of my kind are a huge debt of blood! I have to get it back! If I don't, I will be letting down the people of the cat race, letting down Bai Yi, and even more so, letting down myself! "
None of the Demon Emperors made a sound. Only the Cat Emperor's voice echoed clearly in the air. It was powerful and resonant.
"I don't know what our relationship will be in the future. However, if you insist on standing on Long Yutian's side, then you will be my, Nine-lives Cat's, mortal enemy!
"Brothers, take care of yourselves! After today's departure, we may be mortal enemies when we meet again in the future. Brothers, please don't be merciful, because I won't be merciful, really.
"From today onwards, I will only be a vengeful cat. Nothing else! "
After saying this, he strode away and didn't look back.
The Martial Emperors looked at his back as he left, and their gazes were indescribably complicated.
There were only five to six thousand Demon Emperors who left. This was probably the only force that the Nine-lives Cat race had left in this world!
It really wasn't much!
However, as the Cat Emperor strode forward, all the Monarchs could clearly feel that with every step he took, the aura of this army became more solid!
After 100 steps, they had already become a torrent of steel. They had completely condensed into one, and no other force could separate them!
All of them were united!
The Fox Emperor sighed and said, "I'm going to send the cat off … There's no need to wait for me. I will leave the city later. Brothers, let's meet again if fate allows it. "
There was only indescribable sorrow and disappointment in his voice.
The Roc Emperor said in a gruff voice, "In that case, let's all go together. Let's find a place outside the city and have a good drink with the cat. As for the future, screw them!"
The Tiger Emperor and the Panther Emperor laughed loudly and said, "After today, we will also leave. Brothers, take care!"
They soared up and chased after the Cat Emperor.
As the Tiger Emperor and the Panther Emperor moved, all the Demon Emperors who had come forward to plead for the Nine-lives Cat followed. When these Monarchs left, the experts under them also followed. Among them, there were even Great Monarchs who had set up the Heaven Sealing Array for the Phoenix Emperor.
These Great Monarchs came from various races. Among them, the Eagle, Roc, Tiger, Leopard, Fox, Ox, and Monkey Races made up a small half of them.
All the Monarchs left, but none of them bid farewell to the Phoenix Emperor. They just left like that.
With the Phoenix Emperor's plan, which was known for having good affinity with Demon Emperors, this was definitely not something that should happen!
However, it just had to happen, right in front of the Phoenix Emperor!
The Phoenix Emperor felt dizzy, and his throat tasted sweet. He was seeing stars!
I'm so wronged!
However … after thinking for a long time, the Phoenix Emperor stomped his foot and shouted, "All of you go back, I —"
He spat out blood and said, "I'll send the cat off!"
The Phoenix Emperor was wise, but he was also loyal.
Now that things had come to this, this could very well be the last drink between the brothers.
Even if the Phoenix Emperor's fury was already soaring to the heavens, even if he knew that the Fox Emperor was stirring things up inside and definitely had a great scheme; even if he knew that he wouldn't be welcomed if he went over … he couldn't bear not to go and join in the fun. He had to go and have a drink.
However, he sighed helplessly in his heart.
The Demon Race was really finished!
From this moment on, the Demon Race was already showing signs of falling apart.
These Demon Emperors who had stood out to plead for the Cat Emperor in public were already at odds with the Demon Emperor!
The reason was extremely simple. Even if the Demon Emperor was magnanimous and didn't care, they would still be worried that the Demon Emperor would settle the score later. Today's impulsiveness would definitely pay the price.
If they didn't pay the price themselves, then the Demon Emperor would pay the price.
And was the Demon Emperor a magnanimous person?
Obviously not!
Under that rough and bold appearance, there was a not so magnanimous heart!
Therefore … this was not only the last time the Fox Emperor came to Demon Imperial City, but the Roc Emperor, Eagle Emperor, and the others … would also be the last time they came to court!
When he thought of this, the Phoenix Emperor wanted to spit out three mouthfuls of blood.
How did things come to this stage?
