Immediately, human beings around the altar were divided into a few groups.
The majority of them were ordinary people in Pu Ban City. They didn't know what to do, but followed the crowd and walked around the altar.
Every time they took a few steps in a direction, a team of guards in black robes would suddenly show up, wielding their weapons and shouting at them. Then, these ordinary people would retreat in another direction. However, more guards in black robes rushed out from another direction. Helplessly, these ordinary people chose another direction and left.
These ordinary people clearly understood that not to mention a fight between Magus Kings and Divine Magi, even a fight between two or three Senior Magi could tear their bodies into pieces. By now, the area around the altar had become the most dangerous place in the world. If they didn't leave as soon as possible, they would be killed.
Therefore, countless ordinary people had been running around. Even though Emperor Shun sent a great number of guards over just now, the number was only one ten-thousandth of these ordinary people. Gradually, these guards failed to stop these ordinary people, and many of them quickly scattered into the wilderness.
Other than ordinary people, the second largest group of people were the leaders and elders of the middle-scale and small-scale clans.
Because of the power of these clans, the leaders of these clans didn't have too much ambition, and they weren't interested in the abdication of human emperors. They came here only to let their younger generations learn something. They wanted to join in the fun, so that when they grew old, they could brag to the younger generations of their clans.
After all, the abdication of human emperors was something that ordinary people could hardly witness even once in their entire lives. Human emperors were powerful and had long lives. The length of an emperor's reign was equal to the lifespan of generations of ordinary people.
Because of this, the leaders and elders of these small clans immediately gave long and resonant whistles, turned around, and left with their elite clansmen when they saw the large human clans preparing to make a move.
Although these small clans weren't powerful, the leaders and elders of these small clans who could come to Pu Ban City to watch the fun were all elites of their clans. Among them, many were Magus Kings, and one or two were Divine Magi. Each clan didn't have too many Magus Kings and Divine Magi, but the number of these small clans was way too high.
Because the tribe's strength was small and weak, these small tribes used marriage as a way to strengthen their cohesiveness. There were dozens or even hundreds of clans, and they were surrounded by powerful warriors. They formed a battle formation and charged forward, easily avoiding the interception of the black-clothed imperial guards. They whistled loudly and swaggered away.
From a distance away, one could even hear the wild laughter of the leaders of some small clans, 'Gong Sun Xun is such a useless, useless man. Can we deduct a part of the tribute that our clans are supposed to send to Pu Ban City?'
Ever since Gong Sun Xun ascended to the throne, his reputation began to fall. He didn't have much prestige in the first place. After the clamor of the chiefs of these small tribes was heard by the surrounding people, his prestige directly fell into the abyss.
Except for ordinary people and the leaders of small clans, large human families and clans, these top-grade human forces had all chosen their sides, forming three distinct groups.
Among the three major groups, most of the large clans and clans chose to be neutral.
Among them were powerful forces from the West Wasteland and the East Wasteland. Most of the large families and clans from the West Wasteland and the East Wasteland had formed a defensive formation to protect themselves. They joined hands and formed a thick and heavy defensive formation on the north side of the altar. Clearly, they were just here to watch the show.
Some large families and clans, especially those who were involved in the nine water gates incident, such as High Sun Family, Cloud Sun Family, Suiren Family, Ghost Chariot Clan, and Chu Wu Clan, resolutely stood on Gong Sun Family's side.
They clearly understood that something was wrong with Emperor Shun. Emperor Shun was influenced by an external force, and that was why he passed the throne to Gong Sun Xun, who was unreliable.
But, what did it have to do with them whether Emperor Shun was right or not?
Gong Sun Xun didn't come to the throne properly, which was a good thing. This was a rare opportunity.
The Gong Sun Family didn't come to the throne properly. Instead, it came to the throne through a crooked way. No matter where this crooked way came from, the leaders of these large families and clans didn't care. They didn't care about how much harm this would cause to the humankind!
Benefits, how much was the Gong Sun Family prepared to pay?
Benefits, how much was the Gong Sun Family prepared to give?
Gong Sun Xun wanted to sit firmly on the throne, and the Gong Sun Family wanted to control the humankind. Then, they would trade with benefits! As long as these shameless large families and clans were satisfied, they would be willing to support Gong Sun Xun to sit firmly on the throne.
The rest of these large families and clans had already joined the divine army under Ji Xia's command.
These people were Si Wen Ming's staunch supporters. Among them were tens of thousands of marquises and earls, leaders and elders from tens of thousands of super-large families and clans, and thousands of princes and elites from tens of super-large families and clans.
They led their guards and formed a united battle formation with the divine army. The solemn battle formation was shrouded in beams of starlight that descended from the sky. Numberless people had tightened their faces, angrily staring at Gong Sun Xun on the altar, and the leaders and elders from large families and clans who had been gathering around him.
The group of Gong Sun Family elders had been arguing with the other leaders and elders in low voices, while making all kinds of gestures with their fingers. Each gesture represented a giant number.
Some of them even spread a magic sandbox on the altar, showing the geographical map of the entire Pan Gu Midland. While making gestures, Gong Sun Family elders and the leaders and elders circled a piece of territory on the sandbox.
Gong Sun Xun had just ascended to the throne, but they couldn't wait to divide the territory.
Surrounded by his guards, Gong Sun Xun stood on the edge of the altar and growled at Ji Xia, who was wrapped in a raging fire, "Guards! Take down Ji Xia, who dares to go against me! Pah! What divine God? In my eyes, he's not even as good as cow dung! Take him down! I'm going to torture him myself! "
The surrounding area was disordered. More and more human beings began fleeing. Emperor Shun allowed them to do so on purpose. The dark-cloaked guards began gathering and joining the people from You Yu Clan, which belonged to Emperor Shun's family.
Gong Sun Family warriors quickly surged out of Pu Ban City. Mounted on flying bears, these warriors roared thunderously and marched to the altar while releasing dense clouds of mist from their mouths.
The mountain-sized flying bears flapped their enormous wings and pounced on Ji Xia. Mounted on the backs of the bears, Gong Sun Family warriors lunged at Ji Xia with specially crafted long spears.
Ji Xia cast a cold glance at Gong Sun Xun, helplessly wielded his fist, and said, "Gong Sun Xun, from now on, we have nothing to do with each other. You can be the human emperor, but you can't command a single one of our people!"
Rumble! The divine army didn't start a conflict with Gong Sun Family warriors after all. Instead, they marched back to the heaven at their highest speed.
