The Divine Arbiter bowed her head as she saw the God Emperor off, her heart struggling even more.
No matter how devoted and loyal she was to the God Emperor, she suddenly didn't know what to do.
This wasn't the God Emperor she'd once known!
This wasn't the awe-inspiring god emperor she'd admired ever since she was a child.
She was really struggling. Her hands kept on fumbling around in her pockets, biting hard on her lips. For an entire hour, she kept her hands in her pockets. In the end, she seemed to have really made up her mind. Looking at the room that the Divine Emperor had sealed up with his divine powers, she turned and left.
In contrast to the God Emperor's indifference, the yao and demons were in a completely different situation.
The Council of the Four Nations.
The Yao had no choice but to reconsider their plans to cross the River Styx after their defeat.
The leaders of the four nations had arrived with their leaders. Naturally, their conversation was about their only enemy, Emperor Hades.
"Jiao Hai, tell us."
Even now, Jiao Hai's face was as pale as a sheet of paper. His chest was wrapped in white bandages.
His eyes were filled with unwillingness. He was an arrogant man who'd never even considered Emperor Donghuang a threat.
To him, this defeat was an unbearable humiliation.
"There's nothing to say. Our skills were inferior, and we lost! But I can't just let this go. He dared to humiliate me, so of course I'll regroup and teach him a lesson. The reason I've brought you here is to ask if you'd like to join the Southern Kingdom. "
"Forget about the North."
A scholarly looking middle-aged man raised his hand and said with a smile.
"The North has never advocated war. If you want to attack the gods, go ahead. The North doesn't want to get caught up in this storm, and won't fight a civil war. There will not be a civil war in the Northlands. In this war … the Northlands will not help anyone! "
As soon as he finished speaking, Beiguo had already left with his men.
Faced with this scene, no one present was surprised.
The entire yao race knew the King of the North had a good impression of the gods. It was impossible for him to invade them. The fact that he'd stayed out of the fray meant he'd met their expectations.
On the other hand, the King of the Southern Kingdom had an ugly expression on his face. He had always looked down on the King of the Northern Kingdom.
"That's enough, Jiao Hai. That's just how he is. We all know that. It's already very commendable for him to be able to do this."
The one who spoke was an old man wearing a headscarf and holding a pipe.
He was also the king of the Western Region, one of the four countries, Tie Tan.
"Humph, sooner or later, I will conquer his northern kingdom." Jiao Hai snorted with a ferocious face, "Are the others left …"
"Our Fox Clan will not participate in this."
The Fox Clan was led by the Heavenly Nine-Tailed Fox Clan. The one who had spoken was a special envoy from the Fox Clan.
"The same goes for the dragons."
"The Vermillion Bird Clan as well."
"The same goes for the Tiger Clan."
"The Black Tortoise Clan does not wish to participate."
These Sacred Race clans had been sworn allies since ancient times, and they were still so even now. As soon as the Nine-tailed Fox Clan refused to join, the other Sacred Beast Clans followed suit.
"Goodbye."
The envoys left one after another. At this time, the King of the Eastern Nation said with a bitter smile.
"Everyone, then this old one cannot join either. Since the Sacred Ancestors of our nation are not participating, I have no one else to bring. "
"Heh …"
Jiao Hai smiled indifferently. In fact, he had already expected this outcome before he had brought them here.
Those who had expected to stay had indeed stayed, and those who had thought of leaving had indeed left.
There was no discrepancy.
"Alright, then you may leave."
Suddenly, Jiao Hai pursed his lips and smiled.
"We will be enemies the moment we step out of this hall, no problem!" "Are you threatening us?" The Fox Clan's envoy stopped, and the other envoys stopped as well. They looked at Jiao Hai with bright eyes. "The King of the Northern Nation can leave, but why can't we? You want us to work with you? When the Fox Clan is invaded by the demons, will the other nations come to their aid? "
?”
"The Southern Nation has been working with the demons for a long time. It's a tacit understanding." The Tiger Clan's envoy snorted.
"Same here. Didn't the Fox Clan also work with the God Clan?" Jiao Hai smiled faintly, "It seems like we've found allies and are enemies. However, I'm asking your King, not you. Have you thought it through, Old Bai? Be enemies with the Southern Nation. "
"I haven't."
The King of the Eastern Nation was an old man who looked like the Maitreya Buddha when he smiled. "But these Sacred Clans don't want to. There's nothing I can do, right?"
"I'm asking for your opinion!"
"Then … their opinion is my opinion."
It was hard to imagine that the King of the Eastern Nation was still smiling even though it was a declaration of war.
The faces of the Southern Nation and the Western Regions darkened. The King of the Eastern Nation also chuckled.
"Goodbye."
The meeting of the four nations ended as quickly as it started.
In just a few minutes, only the Southern Nation and the Western Regions remained. Those who stayed felt heavy. The Eastern Nation's words were clear. In the future, they would stand on the opposite side of the two nations.
"Jiao Hai, what do you think?" The King of the Western Regions narrowed his eyes. "If the Eastern Nation works with the God Clan, we will be attacked from both sides if we attack the River Styx. Even if we cooperate with the Demon Emperor and the others, the Demon Race isn't united at all. I think they're the same as us four countries, having a lot of differences of opinion. So rash …
Do we have a good chance of winning if we attack the God Clan? "
"Hmph, what are you afraid of!"
Jiao Hai said ruthlessly. "If the Eastern Nation dares to stab us in the back, we will destroy them first. Plus, we have to face the River Styx and Emperor Ming. I calculated that not many people from the God Clan will come to help. It's obvious that the God Clan isn't united! "
"But Emperor Ming …"
"His strength is indeed unfathomable!" Jiao Hai said seriously. "Wangu Changqing didn't say that for nothing. His realm is high. We can't compare to him."
"If that's the case, how can we attack the River Styx?"
"What if Emperor Ming isn't here?" Jiao Hai smiled.
"Your words …"
"You should have seen the glow of the River Styx on your way here."
"Naturally." The King of the Western Regions said. "I wanted to ask you, what's the situation with the glow of the River Styx?"
"Just before you came, the Demon Emperor sent me a message."
A smile flickered in Jiao Hai's eyes, "Ming Di's time is up!"
"This …" The King of the Western Regions' expression froze. "I was shocked too. I didn't feel it when we fought. But after what the Demon Emperor said, I thought about it carefully. There are indeed many problems. For example, why did Emperor Ming want me to leave when he could have taken my life? Releasing a tiger back into the mountains. No one would do that. There's only one possibility.
