This battle was also a slap to the face for the Fortune God Dynasty. Since the establishment of the Ten Great Divine Cities on the battlefield of the eras, they had never suffered such a huge loss. If it wasn't for the Fortune God Dynasty's deep foundation, any other force would have been defeated long ago.
This battle couldn't be considered a complete victory. Fortunately, they managed to reclaim Moon City in the end. In fact, most of the ancient era's allied forces were eliminated. This was the greatest achievement of the Devil Dao Era. This was really ironic.
The Heavenly Dao Sect Leader and Xuanyuan Tianzun Ling Ren didn't say anything either. This battle wasn't a good thing for them either. Although they were opposing the Fortune God Dynasty on a small matter, in essence, they were still bound together by the Fortune God Dynasty.
After the Heavenly Dao Sect Leader arrived, some other people also arrived. These people could be considered old faces. They were the people that Ye Xiwen had rescued on the Path of Creation.
Compared to their previous dire situation, their current situation was much better. Many of them had already recovered to the equivalent of the Sixth Realm, and even the Seventh Realm.
It was already very hard for them to recover to this extent in such a short period of time because they were lacking too much. For them, being trapped on the Path of Creation for all these years was undoubtedly a stagnation.
Looking at these Heavenly Venerables, Ye Xiwen suddenly understood why the Fortune God Dynasty had rescued them. The existence of these Heavenly Venerables was extremely important to the Fortune God Dynasty. With them, the Fortune God Dynasty's strength would soar by leaps and bounds.
However, for the local super sects and super races in the Eastern Region, their appearance would undoubtedly cause another problem — the competition for resources and territories.
For the original rulers like the Heavenly Dao Sect and the Silvermoon Clan, these Heavenly Venerates who returned later were undoubtedly a huge challenge.
Of course, the Human Race that Ye Xiwen represented was actually also a rising star. He was in the position of a challenger. However, relatively speaking, it was still acceptable because the Human Race had risen by swallowing the Heaven Devouring Demon Clan's territory. In fact, the conflict between the Human Race and the Heaven Devouring Demon Clan was not that big.
In addition, Ye Xiwen's strength was still very weak. The foundation of the human race was also shallow. So, he was still far from being able to challenge a religion or a race.
But with the return of these veteran Empyreans, things were completely different. Under normal circumstances, the rise of an Empyrean would take a very long time, and there would be enough time to restore the balance of power bit by bit. But now, a group of them had suddenly appeared, and each of them had the desire to divide up the Eastern Region's territory. Thus, the final result would only be a fierce conflict.
With so many Heavenly Venerables acting at the same time, rivers of blood would flow, and mountains would change color. This level of chaos was something that the Fortune Divine Dynasty could not allow.
This was also the reason why after these veteran Heavenly Venerables returned, other than taking revenge on the forces that had suppressed their sects and tribes, they had not taken any action. Other than the fact that they weren't in peak condition, their words weren't firm. More importantly, the Fortune Divine Dynasty was pressuring them from above.
This was also the reason why they didn't take action during the foreign allied forces' raid. Since the Fortune Divine Dynasty didn't allow them to fight, then they would borrow the foreign allied forces' hand to clear up the territories.
When the foreign allied forces retreated, the forces that had been invaded would either be annihilated or surrendered to the enemy. Needless to say, annihilation was a given. Even if those who surrendered to the enemy didn't die, they would be crushed to death by the foreign allied forces.
Killing many birds with one stone, everyone was happy!
Of course, this happy party didn't include the Fortune Divine Dynasty. This time, when the foreign allied forces retreated, the Fortune Divine Dynasty suffered a heavy blow in one fell swoop. From all aspects, the Fortune Divine Dynasty's control over the world was lacking by a little bit.
Especially since the Fortune Divine Dynasty had too many sworn enemies, and now, they had begun to rebel.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiwen couldn't help but feel a headache. These Empyreans usually looked aloof and aloof, but in fact, when it came to fighting for territory, there was no difference.
When these Empyreans saw Ye Xiwen, they revealed a faint smile and stepped forward to greet him. Although they were all senior Empyreans, Ye Xiwen's strength had won their recognition.
They had seen Ye Xiwen's invincible might when he killed several Great Empyreans. Moreover, Ye Xiwen had saved their lives before, so they naturally had to accept this favor.
"Alright, now everyone is here!" Ye Xiwen glanced at the Empyreans and said. "Before we get down to business, I have another matter to tell everyone!"
"I believe everyone wants to know the current situation on the battlefield. These days, I've heard a lot of rumors, so I'll tell everyone all at once. This time, my Fortune Divine Dynasty won a complete victory and inflicted heavy losses on the Ancient era. The Devil Path Era retreated with the Heaven Splitting Devil Axe, not daring to come to Full Moon City!" Ye Xiwen said faintly. Although this was a pyrrhic victory for the Fortune Divine Dynasty, he was not wrong in saying so. The Ancient era had indeed suffered heavy losses, and the Devil Path Era had also escaped with the Heaven Splitting Devil Axe.
However, Huang Xiaolong did not mention the price that the Fortune God Dynasty had to pay. Actually, there was no need to hide these things, but these veteran Heavenly Venerables were more cunning and difficult to control. Before the Fortune God Dynasty's main force returned, Huang Xiaolong needed to subdue them.
The other Empyreans did not doubt him and nodded. This was a matter of course. With the Fortune Divine Dynasty's strength and the Fortune Universe Map, it would be strange if it wasn't so.
Only the Heavenly Dao Sect Master and Xuanyuan Empyrean knew a little.
"So, I don't want any strange rumors to spread. Now, the Eastern Region is mostly in the hands of people like you and me. Pass down my order, stop these rumors!" Ye Xiwen said faintly.
Everyone nodded. They were very clear about what those rumors were. Even if they wouldn't lower themselves to spread such rumors, they more or less secretly acquiesced to it. Now that the Fortune Divine Dynasty's main army had returned, they naturally had to stop the original rumors.
"Now that everyone knows that the main army is returning, you can rest assured. What we need to do next is to organize a coalition army to counterattack and drive out the foreign coalition army. I don't care about what happened before, but from now on, if anyone dares to slack off, then don't blame me for being ruthless!" Ye Xiwen said. "Fellow Daoists, you don't need to doubt whether I have the means or the qualifications. Before returning, the Middle Heavenly Venerables had entrusted the Eastern Region's affairs to me, so I think I am qualified to take charge of the overall situation!"
Ye Xiwen had returned first. The Middle Heavenly Venerables still needed some time, but it was only a matter of time. The main thing was that the Middle Heavenly Venerables still needed to stay in Moon City for a while. They were afraid that the Demonic Era would come back with the Heaven Splitting Demonic Axe. If that happened, then all their previous efforts would have been in vain.
"If someone else wanted to take charge of the overall situation, I wouldn't be convinced. But since it's Fellow Daoist Wu, I think there won't be a problem!" At this time, a veteran Heavenly Venerables said.
At this time, Ye Xiwen's life-saving grace for these veteran Heavenly Venerables played a huge role.
It would've been impossible for them to accept a junior as the leader of the allied forces if that wasn't the case. In fact, they wouldn't have agreed even if it was the Dean of the Heavenly Dao Sect. So, they wouldn't have agreed to it.
Unless it was a legitimate ruler of the Eastern Region like the Eastern Heavenly Venerables.
However, at this time, they still owed Ye Xiwen a huge favor. Naturally, they wouldn't go against Ye Xiwen. Moreover, the Eastern Region really needed such a backbone now.
For various reasons, they didn't plan to stand out, so they could only let Ye Xiwen be the leader.
"Yes, yes, I also agree!"
"I don't agree with anyone except Wu Daoist!"
The other veteran Heavenly Venerables also nodded and echoed. They also realized what it meant for Ye Xiwen to return as a representative of the Middle Heavenly Venerables. It meant that he was the successor of the Eastern Heavenly Venerables.
Originally, the Middle Heavenly Venerables' recommendation of Ye Xiwen as a candidate was just a joke. In terms of connections, he didn't have any. In terms of achievements, he didn't have any. In terms of strength, he didn't have any.
But now, when Ye Xiwen met all the requirements, he became a hot topic in everyone's hearts.
Especially when he swept the Outer Heavenly Venerables led by Chaotic Heavenly Venerables, it shocked these veteran Heavenly Venerables who were watching from afar. He was decisive and ruthless. He was definitely not an ordinary person.
At this time, forming a good relationship with Ye Xiwen was forming a good relationship with the future Eastern Heavenly Venerables. The most important thing was to avoid the future Eastern Heavenly Venerables making things difficult for them in the future.
At this time, everyone looked at Xuanyuan Heavenly Venerables and the Heavenly Dao Sect Master who were sitting in their seats. At this time, only the two of them hadn't expressed their opinion.
And these two were the top Heavenly Venerables in the entire Eastern Territory. If this plan couldn't get their approval, then it would be a joke.
"Why are you all looking at me, I have no opinion!" Xuanyuan Heavenly Venerables saw everyone looking at him and immediately jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "In any case, you guys can make the decisions, I'll just be a hired thug and help the allied forces solve some problems!"
Xuanyuan Heavenly Venerables had always been free and unrestrained, and his unrestrained nature was vividly reflected here. He, a dignified peak Heavenly Venerables, was being compared to a hired thug without any hesitation. This made the other Heavenly Venerables sweat profusely. Didn't this mean that they were also the so-called hired thugs?
Thinking of this, they didn't know whether to laugh or cry!
Then they all turned their attention to the Heavenly Dao Sect Master.
As if finally noticing everyone's gaze, the Heavenly Dao Sect Master thought for a long time before finally saying: "Heavenly Dao Sect can fully cooperate with the allied forces without any objections!"
