Kill them all!
Suddenly, the sky darkened.
The pool of lightning in the sky faded, and the icy blue flames dissipated. What appeared in the Wilderness was an army of demons that covered the sky and covered the earth, flying through the air.
The instant they appeared, the Wildlands' sky supremes sensed at least a dozen similar or even stronger auras lock onto them. Jackdaw, Yin Hu, and Chen Jiannan, the strongest of the three major powers, were the ones who received the most attention.
All the sky supremes tensed up, including Jackdaw, who'd been indolent from start to finish. When the yao ninth and eighth stage sky supremes locked onto him, his expression turned grave.
"Yin Hu!"
In practically an instant, Chen Jiannan turned and roared at Yin Hu.
The other demon and god race experts did the same. Their faces were ashen as they stared at the yao.
Shockingly, the yao's aura had locked onto them. The three factions often clashed with each other, so how could they not sense the yao experts in the sky?
Their numbers blotted out the sky; there were at least a hundred of them. Moreover, even the weakest of them was a seventh-stage sky supreme.
"You yao really are trustworthy!" roared Chen Jiannan.
Before they arrived, the top experts of the three factions had reached an agreement.
Each faction could send no more than fifteen sky supremes, and only one ninth-stage sky supreme. The rest of the experts would be sent from their peak clans.
But now, the yao in the sky were clearly telling them that the yao had broken their agreement.
"Those aren't our people," explained Yin Hu frantically.
"Then could they be our people?"
Roared Chen Jiannan. By now, he was genuinely afraid.
Most yao who could break through to the sky supreme level were divine beasts. Divine beasts were blessed with innate physical advantages.
Although gods who'd undergone divine tribulation could contend with divine beasts, not just anyone could undergo divine tribulation.
Take Chen Jiannan, for example. Even though he was a monstrous son of heaven and his fame had spread far and wide, he'd yet to truly transcend the God Realm and condense his godhead.
Earlier, he'd expended a great deal of energy dealing with Ye Zichen's Dao of Lightning and Fire.
Now that he was up against a ninth-stage sky supreme and several eighth-stage demon race experts, he had no chance of winning.
"Yin Hu, your demon race has won this time. We will withdraw from the fight for the Xuan-Yuan Sword and the Yao-Sealing Pagoda. Now, have your people back off and let us go. As for your betrayal, I'll report it to God Emperor Bing and Thunder Monarch when I get back! "
This wasn't the time to be a hero. Chen Jiannan was more concerned about the lives of these people.
"It really wasn't me." Yin Hu didn't know how to explain himself.
"Yin Hu!" Chen Jiannan's eyes were bloodshot. He gripped his divine sword tightly in his hand. "Do you want to kill us all here? Do you dare?! "
Chen Jiannan wouldn't let go of Yin Hu. Meanwhile, on the demon side, Jackdaw watched the yao in the sky with a grave expression. He took in Yin Hu's expression and every little move he made. Jackdaw's gaze flickered back and forth between Yin Hu and the yao.
"Something's not right. They shouldn't be Yin Hu's people. Chen Jiannan, you've misunderstood him."
"That's right, they weren't our people to begin with." When he heard that Jackdaw was actually speaking up for him, Yin Hu furrowed his brows. "They've already locked onto our people. What's more, the emperor and the rules discussed this beforehand. How could we have sent so many people without your knowledge?"
"Then who could it be?" Chen Jiannan narrowed his eyes. "I know what sort of agreement you two came to. Do you think I'd believe you if you spoke up for him?"
"Don't forget, we have the Yao-Sealing Pagoda!"
In response to Chen Jiannan's suspicions, Jackdaw smirked coldly, then glanced at the smiling Ye Zichen.
It was also at this moment that the other Supreme-Beings turned their gazes over.
"So, you didn't start fighting? What a shame. I thought you'd fight amongst yourselves."
Ye Zichen pulled out a chair from somewhere and sat down. He leisurely crossed his legs and sipped his wine. Two beautiful eighth-stage sky supreme women stood by his side, waiting on him.
When he sensed their auras, Chen Jiannan's pupils constricted. Blue veins bulged on his forehead as he pointed at Ye Zichen and roared, "It's you!"
"It's you!"
The instant he pointed at Ye Zichen, the two women's gazes turned cold, and they melted into the darkness.
Inexplicably, Chen Jiannan felt a wave of frigid energy seep into his body from the soles of his feet.
His body froze for half a second because of the chill, and it was also in this half a second that a cold light flashed in front of him. When everyone came back to their senses, they saw that the finger he had extended had already left his hand and landed on the ground.
Even more frightening, Chen Jiannan didn't feel any pain at all.
His blood was sealed in a layer of ice. It wasn't until the two women returned to Ye Zichen's side that he felt a heart-wrenching pain.
"I'm truly sorry. I didn't restrain my subordinates well enough, and they broke your finger. It must hurt, right?" Ye Zichen cocked his head and smiled calmly.
"Shadow charms."
One of the yao recognized the two women's true forms. His eyes trembled.
"Didn't they say shadow charms went extinct during the Great War of Gods and Demons? Why do they still exist?"
In truth, shadow charms weren't yao, but they were classified as such. Any adult shadow charm was a qualified assassin.
During the Great War of Gods and Demons, a half-step ruler ancestor of the shadow charms used their race's concealment and assassination techniques to kill multiple demon rulers without fail.
The Demon Emperor was enraged and personally exterminated the shadow charms. Since then, the Demon Clan had never seen the existence of Ying Mei again.
Quite a few demon experts widened their eyes in shock. Although they hadn't experienced the shadow charms' assassination, they'd left a mark on their history.
"Ye Zichen! Ye Zichen!"
Chen Jiannan, who'd lost a finger, roared madly. He sealed his finger's acupoints, but his gaze was inexplicably playful.
"With the yao of the Yao-Sealing Pagoda around, I really can't do anything to you. But so what? Do you dare touch a single one of us? The sky supremes here are the elites of the Three Realms' major factions. If you kill us, you'll offend the entire Three Realms. In the future, you'll have to bear the wrath of every major faction in the Three Realms. You'll never be able to rest in peace! Hmph, you're just bluffing. If I really let you kill us …. Would you dare? "
"Did you know? That's what your junior apprentice brother, Xiao Hu, said back then."
Ye Zichen's smile suddenly faded, and he roared at the yao in the sky.
