Sometimes, anger was like this.
When a person was truly enraged, he would ignore everything in front of him. It didn't matter if they were facing an undefeatable opponent or someone of high status.
In this situation, they didn't care about any of that.
He simply wanted to vent the anger in his heart.
Xiao Yan was a prime example!
Xiao Yumei was extremely important to him, so important that she was more important than his own life.
Her uncertain fate had caused Xiao Yan to lose all sense of reason.
Then there was Ye Zichen's inaction. His cold demeanor was like a catalyst, fuel for his rage.
If he said no ….
It didn't matter if he could or couldn't say it, if he should or shouldn't say it.
Even if, even if it was some trivial matter, it would not matter at all.
Even if it was a trivial matter.
Everything would appear in Xiao Yan's mind, and Ye Zichen's flaws would be magnified without limit.
Xiao Hu retreated!
Was he supposed to tell Xiao Yan that Ye Zichen wasn't actually like he thought?
Would Xiao Yan listen?
Was that even possible?
He knew that even if he tried to persuade Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan wouldn't listen. On the contrary, it would only serve as a catalyst for his rage.
The only difference between humans and wild beasts was their intelligence.
When humans lost their rationality, they were no different from wild beasts. In fact, their bodies were far inferior.
Rather than trying to persuade Xiao Yan, it was better to tell Ye Zichen not to bicker with him.
"Alliance Head ….."
The others didn't dare speak up for Xiao Yan for fear of getting dragged into this mess.
Xiao Hu was different!
He was related to Xiao Yan. Even looking at Xiao Yan was disrespectful. The others didn't dare speak up for him, but Xiao Hu had to.
Even if he did, he might get dragged into this mess.
"Men!"
However, Ye Zichen didn't give Xiao Hu a chance to speak. As soon as he spoke, several emperor-level experts appeared outside the room.
Most of these experts were from the First Era, and they obeyed Ye Zichen. As for the others, they wouldn't listen, not even to Xiao Yumei.
Strangely enough, they were fugitives from the First Era.
By the time they arrived in the Third Era, most of them were rulers, but not long after, their cultivation had risen by leaps and bounds.
Thirty percent of the previous rulers had become emperors!
Only the higher-ups of the Upheaval Alliance knew about this. Not even the other great emperors of the Divine Mountains knew.
If they knew …
Ye Zichen had hundreds of thousands of emperors on the Tenth Divine Mountain, and that number was still rising. What would he think?
One had to know that the other Divine Mountains.
Although there was hidden energy, it was only a small part of it.
These emperors were the reason Ye Zichen didn't even spare the ancients a glance.
The ancient race's strength lay in the number of Thearch experts they had. Of course, it was also because of the existence of a Half-step Transcendent.
However, if the two clans were to fight, the energy of a Half-step Transcendent could destroy the world with a wave of their hands. The Master of the Laws couldn't possibly allow them to do as they pleased. Otherwise, the Ancients wouldn't have been able to live in a sub-dimension.
The other races believed that the ancient race was transcendent.
Little did they know that this kind of transcendence was just a method of the Ancient race.
As soon as the Great Emperor entered the room, his aura locked onto Xiao Yan.
As Xiao Yumei's younger brother, Xiao Yan had once been the Emperor of Lightning Punishment. He could be considered a core member of the upper echelon, so he knew who these people were.
He could resist!
With his strength as an Imperial Lord, it was easy for him to escape from the hands of these Imperial Lords.
But he knew …
Even if he managed to break out of the room, there would be more emperors and emperors waiting for him outside.
"Detain Xiao Yan."
With a single command, the emperors seized Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan didn't resist, but his bloodshot eyes continued to glare at Ye Zichen. His eyes burned with fury and hatred. He wanted nothing more than to skin Ye Zichen alive.
"Ye Zichen, even if you don't like me, my sister is infatuated with you. You can't let her down like this. If anything happens to my sister, even if I become a vengeful spirit, I won't let you off! "
"Take him away!"
The Imperial Lord grabbed Xiao Yan by the shoulder and led him out of the room. Even though they'd been gone for some time, Xiao Yan's furious roars still echoed through the room.
The others fell silent.
Xiao Hu gnashed his teeth as he watched Xiao Yan being dragged away. Even the stewards he was on good terms with gestured for him not to say anything.
But he couldn't just sit back and watch!
Just now, Xiao Yan knew that if he said those things, Ye Zichen wouldn't let him off easily, but he'd done it anyway.
This was human nature!
Humans have feelings, especially familial love!
"Alliance Head, Xiao Yan, he …."
"I don't blame him." Ye Zichen rubbed his aching temples, his expression weary. "I know he did it for Yumei's sake. He's Yumei's little brother, so it's normal for him to say such things. I don't blame him, and in fact, I'm happy for Yumei for having a little brother like that, but this isn't our home. This is the Upheaval Alliance! Since this was a matter of the Imperial Court, he couldn't allow his personal feelings to get mixed up. At a time like this, all captives are equal. Yumei is no different. I only sent Xiao Yan away to calm him down.
If he causes trouble like this, he won't be able to handle the situation. "
When he heard this, Xiao Hu calmed down.
Little did he know, Pilar's brows twitched slightly.
He'd come with Ye Zichen and witnessed everything.
When Xiao Yan was taken away, based on his demonic gaze, he knew this guy was beyond saving.
He never would have guessed Ye Zichen would say something like that.
Despite Xiao Yan's words, he fiercely maintained a clear head.
Bonus points!
If they worked together, it would be hard to avoid a rift between him and Ye Zichen in the future. If Ye Zichen was a rational person, he wouldn't act on impulse. He needed allies like that.
Xiao Hu retreated, knowing that Xiao Yan would be fine. He relaxed somewhat, but Yumei and the others' situation couldn't be delayed.
"Alliance Head, how do you plan to save the Vice Alliance Head and the others?"
"We can't go rashly!" said Wei Jie. "This is clearly a Hongmen Banquet. If you go, you'll be surrounded by danger! Furthermore, we might have missed something important! "
"What is it?" asked Xiao Hu.
"The messenger didn't give us an address at all. Even if we know it's the Outside, the Outside is too vast. How are we supposed to find them?"
Xiao Hu and the others suddenly froze.
They thought back to the letter they'd received. There really wasn't an address, not even a direction.
Xiao Yan, who was worried about Yumei, hadn't noticed. Xiao Hu hadn't noticed, and neither had the others ….
"What are they trying to do?" roared Xiao Hu.
They'd invited Ye Zichen as a guest, but hadn't given him an address? Were they toying with them?
"Hah …."
