While Sovereign Chen Xing had always been a neutral person, he had colluded with Sovereign Chen Ling to ambush Sovereign Chen Yong and severely injure the latter.
He had intended to deal with the culprit first before looking for Sovereign Chen Xing, but who could have thought that he would actually come here himself?
Just as everyone was thinking that a battle would break out at any moment, Sovereign Chen Xing suddenly kneeled to the ground and said, "Your guilty subject, Chen Xing, pays respect to Sovereign Chen Yong. These are the leg bones of Elder Vicious. I specially came here to apologize to you!"
With a flick of his wrist, two skeletons appeared before him, and they emanated powerful auras.
They were Vicious' remaining leg bones and feet.
Who would have thought that Sovereign Chen Xing would collect them?
"So, you decided to go along with the flow after seeing that Sovereign Chen Ling was killed?"
Ancient Sage Allfire harrumphed coldly.
He had always had a fiery temper, and he hated people who would submit to whoever was stronger than them.
Sovereign Chen Ling dared not refute Ancient Sage Allfire's words, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm willing to accept any punishment!"
Sovereign Chen Ling was dead, and he was severely injured. If he did not come here to beg for forgiveness, it was only a matter of time before he was killed. Thus, he might as well make the first move.
Zhang Xuan glanced at Sovereign Chen Xing and said calmly, "You didn't appear even after such a huge commotion in the capital. You must be waiting to see the outcome of the battle and submit to whoever wins, right?"
It was already an exaggeration to say that Sovereign Chen Xing was an opportunist.
As one of the Three Sovereigns, there was no way Sovereign Chen Xing would be oblivious to such a huge commotion in the capital.
It was only after Sovereign Chen Ling was killed that he appeared … Clearly, he was waiting for the outcome of the battle.
If they were to lose this time around, and the one who won was Sovereign Chen Ling, he would probably take out the same treasure and beg for it as well.
"I … have always been the weakest. That's the only way I can preserve my life!"
Sovereign Chen Xing lowered his head.
Sovereign Chen Yong shook his head silently. Instead, he turned to Liu Yang and asked, "How do you think we should deal with him?"
This question was no different from a test.
"He colluded with Sovereign Chen Ling to attack Sovereign Chen Yong, disregarding the rules of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe. Even if Sovereign Chen Yong is willing to forgive him, the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe won't …" Liu Yang shook his head as a vicious glint in his eyes. "Otherwise, where are the rules of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe? My opinion, I agree with Sovereign Chen Yong, kill him! "
There was no order without rules..
If he didn't kill one as a warning to a hundred and warn others to follow his example, in the future, everyone would want to rebel. Then, as the emperor, how could he control the world?
Make all the people submit?
"Sovereign Yong, please spare my life. I … was also bewitched by Sovereign Ling …"
Sovereign Chen Xing did not think that he would be killed even after offering up Vicious' leg bone. His face paled in fright.
"As a Blood Reincarnation realm expert and one of the Three Sovereigns, do you think that anyone would believe such an excuse?"
Liu Yang shook his head.
Could anyone be bewitched by the Emperor who controlled a clan?
If that was really the case, the mental state that he had cultivated for countless years would really be worthless.
These were all excuses.
The truth was very simple. Sovereign Chen Ling had invited him to make a move, and he had been tempted by the offer. He had thought that he would be able to gain control of the other party if he killed Sovereign Chen Yong, but in the end, he had ended up with such an outcome.
"Heed the orders of the new Sovereign Yong!"
Seeing how decisive his descendant was, Sovereign Chen Yong heaved a sigh of relief.
He was worried that the other party would be like him and worry too much, leading to the destruction of the Spirit Race. Since the other party was so decisive, he was completely at ease.
"Please, both of you, make your move!"
Seeing that Ancient Sage Mo Ling had agreed to it, Liu Yang nodded before turning his gaze to Ancient Sage Allfire.
Hong long!
Seeing that his fate was sealed, Sovereign Chen Xing's face warped in horror. He immediately turned around and tried to flee.
However, before he could get far, a ball of flames fell from the sky and blocked his path. Following which, Ancient Sage Mo Ling and Ancient Sage Allfire made their moves simultaneously.
In less than ten minutes, he was killed on the spot.
Sovereign Chen Xing was the weakest of the Three Sovereigns, and he had not recovered from the injuries he had sustained in the Temple of Confucius. How could he possibly be a match for the combined might of the two Sovereigns?
"Young Master …"
Seeing that Sovereign Chen Xing was dead, Sovereign Chen Yong turned to Zhang Xuan and said, "I'll have Yang Liu take control of the Spirit Race and have them stop the war with the humans. I hope that you can show mercy …"
In truth, what he was most worried about was not the Sovereigns but the young master.
The young man had grown too quickly, and he was simply too powerful. It was only a matter of time before he became another Kong Shi.
If he wanted to, he could wipe out the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe with a flick of his finger.
Given that he was still alive, it was unlikely that the other party would make a move. If he were to die, the young master would be killed on the spot.
If that happened, it would really be over.
As reluctant as he was, he knew that as long as the young master was alive, the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe would not dare to make a move.
"Don't worry."
Zhang Xuan.
To be honest, he had already resolved the threat posed by the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe.
Little Tribulation was indebted to him, and the rate at which it gathered lightning was much faster and stronger. In the future, the number of Saint 9-dan experts among the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe would dwindle.
Not to mention, the new Emperor of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe was his student, and he obeyed his every command!
Since the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe was no longer a threat to him, there was no need for him to wipe them out.
At the same time, he would be able to pressure the Mingshi Tang Tribe and use them as a whetstone to nurture more experts among the human race.
Otherwise, if the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe were to live in peace, the human race would slowly decline.
Perhaps, this was also part of Kong Shi's intentions back then, which was why he had not completely wiped out the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe.
Otherwise, no matter how powerful the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe was, they would not have been a match for Vicious. So, why did the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe enter the ancient battlefield and reinforce the seal instead of wiping them out?
"Thank you, Young Master!"
Knowing that the Young Master was a man of his word, Sovereign Chen Yong heaved a sigh of relief. He turned to Liu Yang and said, "Hurry up and thank the Young Master for sparing your life!"
"Thank you!"
Liu Yang hurriedly kowtowed.
"There's no need to play such tricks. Tell me how I can contact Luo Ruoxin and bring me over!" Zhang Xuan couldn't be bothered to care about the other party's thoughts.
Having dealt with the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, it was time for him to deal with his personal affairs.
"In order to contact the Spirit God, we'll have to set up an altar on Thousandleaf Mountain," Sovereign Chen Yong explained weakly.
"Thousandleaf Mountain?"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
He had heard Sovereign Chen Yong mention this mountain before. It was the most majestic mountain of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe. It was several dozen thousand meters tall, and it pierced through the heavens, reminiscent of a staircase connecting the heavens and the earth.
"That's right. Thousandleaf Mountain is the closest to the heavens. Only by conducting a ritual on it can one approach the gods," Sovereign Chen Yong explained.
Sovereign Chen Yong explained. "Yang Liu, I have already imparted the ritual to you. Take me and the Young Master with you. I'll oversee the ritual and conduct the final ritual …"
"Alright!"
Liu Yang nodded before grabbing Sovereign Chen Yong and dragging him into the air. After which, he turned around and instructed one of the Sempiternal realm experts before leaving. After which, he turned to Zhang Xuan and said respectfully, "This way, please."
"Un."
Without wasting any time, Zhang Xuan flew in the direction that Liu Yang had pointed out.
Ancient Sage Mo Ling and Ancient Sage Allfire hesitated for a moment before hurriedly following behind.
