When this group of cultivators arrived, Princess Donghuang personally welcomed them. Spear Emperor Du You was also there, looking at the leader.
This person wore a golden robe and looked to be in his forties. He exuded an invisible sense of majesty, as if he had been in a high position for a long time. This person was a super powerful existence under Donghuang the Great. His strength was above Spear Emperor Du You, and he ranked third among the Nine Divine Generals.
"Princess, Your Highness." The divine general bowed slightly when he saw Princess Donghuang. Even though he was a top existence and ranked high among the divine generals, he still needed to salute in front of the only daughter of Donghuang the Great. Moreover, his attitude was very respectful, and it seemed that it was not only because of the Great Emperor.
Princess Donghuang herself was also recognized. She had the opportunity to inherit the Great Emperor's glory in the future.
"Cao Jun, thank you for your hard work." Princess Donghuang nodded slightly and said, "Since Father asked Cao Jun to come here in person, he must have made arrangements."
"His Majesty sent some words. As for the specific arrangements, it is up to you. His Majesty will support it, and I will also assist you," Cao Jun said. Then, he transmitted his voice to Princess Donghuang. It was a message from Donghuang the Great. The Great Emperor's order was only for the Princess, so he naturally would not let others hear it.
"I understand." Princess Donghuang nodded and continued, "Wait for them to come and see what their attitude is."
"As you wish, Princess." Cao Jun nodded. Suddenly, the group stood in the main hall, waiting quietly.
A gentle breeze blew, and the Empty Imperial Palace was silent. Princess Donghuang stood there with peerless beauty. If she did not speak, no one would speak. This solemn atmosphere made the people of the Empty Imperial Palace feel a little amazed. They did not expect Princess Donghuang to be so dignified at such a young age.
Moreover, she was so beautiful.
In the distance, a powerful might shrouded them. Soon, a dark army arrived. It was the cultivators of the Dark Court. This time, in addition to the Lord of the Underworld, the Dark Court also had another cultivator of the same level. It was another of the seven kings of the Dark Court. Such a lineup could not be said to be weak.
The Empty Imperial Palace was the home field of the Divine Prefecture. They had to be well prepared to come here to negotiate. At the very least, they could not let the Empty Imperial Palace be destroyed.
"Cao Jun." The Lord of the Underworld and the other cultivators noticed the majestic figure beside Princess Donghuang. Their pupils contracted slightly. They did not expect that the person who came from the Divine Prefecture to the Lower Worlds this time would be Cao Jun. It seemed that Donghuang the Great really valued the Original Realm.
Not long after, another powerful pressure enveloped them. Spatial Divine Light descended from the sky. Brilliant golden divine halos sprinkled down. Another army descended. They were the cultivators of the Evil Emperor Realm. The leader was still the heir of the Evil Emperor, Shi Xie.
Shi Xie also saw Cao Jun. Together with Spear Emperor Du You, the lineup of the Divine Continent was truly invincible.
"How have you been, Princess?" Shi Xie looked at Princess Donghuang and said. He was more polite this time in the Empty Imperial Palace.
Cao Jun glanced at Shi Xie from afar. His expression was tyrannical and his gaze was extremely imposing. Even though Shi Xie was a disciple of the Evil Emperor, he didn't really care.
However, a few people beside Shi Xie also took a step forward. An indistinct tyrannical might of the Great Path surrounded Shi Xie's body. These cultivators were all cultivators of Empty Mountain.
"I believe that you all have been summoned here today. More than 300 years ago, in the struggle for control of the Original Realm, the Divine Prefecture has already taken control of the Original Realm. This is something that everyone knows. Now, more than 300 years have passed. The Dark Court and the Evil Emperor Realm have once again come to the Original Realm and are stirring up trouble. Today, I am here to ask all of you. Do you want to start a war?"
Princess Donghuang's voice was cold and arrogant. She was extremely domineering. It was as though as long as the other side answered, she would not hesitate to start a war.
"Princess, you have also said that that was more than 300 years ago. Now that the passageway has been opened, the control of the Original Realm will be redetermined. If the Dark Court comes to fight, the Evil Emperor Realm will naturally be able to as well," Shi Xie replied.
"In that case, the Evil Emperor Realm wants control of the Original Realm. Is there no other choice?" Princess Donghuang asked. She only needed an answer.
If she couldn't get the answer she wanted, then there was only one choice.
"Since the Princess has spoken, I can take a step back. There are Nine Supreme Realms in the Original Realm. Since our three major forces are fighting, then we can each divide the Nine Supreme Realms and let the Divine Prefecture choose first. How about that?" Shi Xie said with a smile. His eyes revealed a hint of evil.
Dividing the Nine Realms into three was obviously impossible for the Divine Prefecture to agree.
Just as he expected, Princess Donghuang only glanced at him coldly. The Original Realm was now under the control of the Divine Prefecture. Dividing the Nine Realms into three?
If that happened, who knew what would happen?
"We have no objections either," the Lord of the Underworld said. If they could divide the Nine Realms, the Dark Court would certainly have no objections.
"Very well, then I will see you on the battlefield." Princess Donghuang wanted to turn around and stop talking.
The Divine Prefecture controlled the Original Realm. If the other party wanted to divide the Three Realms, it meant that they had to cede it.
Of course, this was impossible.
"Wait." Shi Xie looked at Princess Donghuang and said, "I can take a step back. I only want the land of two Realms."
Princess Donghuang turned her body and continued, "See you on the battlefield."
"Princess, why are you in such a hurry?" Shi Xie smiled and said, "In the great war 300 years ago, the Divine Prefecture also suffered heavy losses. If we must go to war, it will definitely cause an even greater commotion. All three sides will send their armies to support us. In this way, there will be no winner. All three sides will lose. Why don't I make a suggestion for the Princess to consider?"
"Speak," Princess Donghuang said.
"Throughout history, battles between realms can be substituted if they are not battles of life and death. It is enough to determine the winner and loser within the rules. There is no need to go all out. If that happens, all three sides will lose more than they gain," Shi Xie said. "Why don't all three sides send an army each and fight it out in a designated battlefield. The loser will be eliminated."
"If you win, what do you want? If you lose, what do you want?" Princess Donghuang asked.
"If we win, we want the land of two Realms out of the Nine Realms. These two Realms need to be under our direct control. The Divine Prefecture cannot interfere. If we lose, we will not interfere with anything in the Original Realm. However, since the passageway has been opened, there is no reason for us to completely withdraw. The people of the Evil Emperor Realm will still be in the Original Realm. However, if there are no special circumstances, there will not be any disturbances," Shi Xie said.
"I agree," the Lord of the Underworld said. "If we win, the Dark Court will take one more Realm in addition to the Hidden Land Realm. If we lose, the Dark Court will only retreat to the Hidden Land Realm and will not interfere with the affairs of other places."
It was impossible for them to withdraw and completely give up on the Original Realm.
Although the Original Realm was not a problem, they could not ignore this side.
"If the Princess does not agree, then we can only agree to the Princess's suggestion and the three sides will go to war," Shi Xie continued.
Princess Donghuang stared at Shi Xie as if she was weighing the situation.
"The specific rules of the battle," Princess Donghuang asked.
"If the two sides go to war directly, they will definitely suffer great losses. This idea is also to reduce some losses. It is meaningless for people below the Renhuang Plane to fight, and it will not reflect the strength of our three sides. Then, let's look at the core strength, the lower-level Renhuang," Shi Xie said.
"The three sides will each send an army composed of lower-level Renhuang. There is no limit to the number of people. They will be thrown into an independent battlefield. Life and death will not matter. Until the last side still standing wins. Of course, they can choose to surrender."
If they went to war directly, it would be a battle between the top figures. The disturbance would even exceed that in the Shadow Realm, causing a chain reaction.
In this way, they could indeed avoid a lot of trouble.
As long as the three sides were willing to accept the price of victory and defeat, then it was feasible.
The Dark Court was happy to accept it and had no objections. This was also proposed by the Evil Emperor Realm, so the key was on the side of the Divine Prefecture.
"If the Princess still chooses to go to war like this, then we can only accompany you. Our Evil Emperor Realm has few people. We can play however we want," Shi Xie said with a smile.
Princess Donghuang looked at him. She also knew that now that the passage had been opened, it was impossible for the other side to completely retreat. In the past, many forces had laid out their plans here and left chess pieces.
Then, in front of her, there was also a choice.
In the land of the Original Realm, they had the geographical advantage and the advantage in numbers. However, the other two top forces would definitely join forces to deal with them. This meant that if they wanted to win, they needed to bring out a stronger force.
"Time and place," Princess Donghuang said.
As soon as she said this, Shi Xie revealed a smile. Obviously, Princess Donghuang had agreed.
Then, he was full of interest in this battle.
The three sides negotiated and reached an agreement. They would use a battle to decide the division of the Original Realm.
This news quickly spread to the Heavenly Mandate Realm. The cultivators of the Empty Imperial Palace directly came to the Heavenly Mandate Academy through the teleportation grand matrix and summoned the College Chief of the Heavenly Mandate Academy, Lord Taixuan. The Princess had ordered that a great battle with the Evil Emperor Realm and the Dark Court would erupt in a month, and it could only be a battle between lower-level Renhuangs.
"Lord Taixuan, this time, the Heavenly Mandate Academy needs to choose the strongest lower-level Renhuangs to go to the Empty Imperial Palace in a month to participate in the battle," the Divine Emissary who had come reported. Lord Taixuan nodded and said, "Reporting to the Palace Lord, the Heavenly Mandate Academy will do its best."
The Divine Emissary nodded and then left. The Heavenly Mandate Academy was shocked.
Ye Futian was also there. He looked at all of this and thought to himself, It seems that Princess Donghuang is also under a lot of pressure and has made concessions. Otherwise, the Original Realm is the territory of the Divine Prefecture. There is nothing to talk about. However, the one who will pay the price will not be Princess Donghuang, but the cultivators of the Nine Realms!
