Chapter 1170: Chapter 362: No Longer Our Era (Part 2)
They are the deities of the Ancient Heavenly Court. Though they were exiled, they still carry a condescending attitude, and after their return, they are even more convinced that they can once again rule the Three Realms.
However, reality told them they were wrong.
Nowadays, the Heavenly Emperor is looking to form an alliance with the Heavenly Court, and surprisingly, the Heavenly Emperor is the proactive party.
This was very stimulating for them.
Even under Emperor Jun’s command, quite a few people felt a sense of humiliation.
Sitting in the grand hall, Sun Wukong chose not to speak.
He is not suited to negotiations and might break the alliance.
This time, his and Yang Jian’s presence was mainly to show the Heavenly Court’s emphasis on this alliance.
Everyone knows that Sun Wukong and Yang Jian are the two main pillars of the Heavenly Court.
Sun Wukong holds no official position in the Heavenly Court, but he is extremely close to the Great Emperor Ziwei.
There are some things the Heavenly Court is cautious about and can’t do, yet he can step in.
Moreover, Sun Wukong’s own power is strong enough that anyone who opposes the Heavenly Court must consider him.
As for Yang Jian, he is even the Second Heavenly Emperor.
In the Heavenly Court, he handles almost eighty percent of affairs.
Yang Jian can even revise the Heavenly Regulations, a privilege granted by the Great Emperor Ziwei, which is immensely significant.
Their arrival is just as important as if the Great Emperor Ziwei came in person, perhaps more so.
Gold Star Taibai, as the leader of the alliance, was to negotiate with Emperor Jun.
At this moment, a powerful presence emerged, and Eastern Emperor Tai Yi arrived.
He suddenly appeared in the hall, with a powerful Qi targeting Emperor Jun. The cold murderous intent caused everyone’s expressions to change drastically.
Emperor Jun sat on the throne, looking indifferent.
“Emperor Jun, you’re quite skillful, luring these three here; I might as well kill them now,”
said Eastern Emperor Tai Yi as he prepared to act.
Sun Wukong and Yang Jian tensed up, ready to fight at any moment.
However, Gold Star Taibai remained calm and showed no sign of being on guard.
He understood that although he had reached the rank of Great Heavenly Venerate, facing this Heavenly Emperor, he was no match.
If he were alone, death would be certain.
Fortunately, Sun Wukong and Yang Jian were by his side.
Therefore, Gold Star Taibai was not worried at all.
As for whether Emperor Jun was deceiving them, the three were well aware.
What Eastern Emperor Tai Yi said was just to force Emperor Jun to make a choice.
As long as Emperor Jun showed any hesitation, he would immediately kill the three, making the alliance with Emperor Jun impossible for the Heavenly Court.
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi was about to act.
In response, Emperor Jun immediately unleashed powerful Qi, targeting Eastern Emperor Tai Yi.
With Emperor Jun’s outburst, others in the hall followed suit.
Even though they disliked the Heavenly Court, they knew if Eastern Emperor Tai Yi killed these three, it would ruin their majesty’s plan.
Thus, the strong under Emperor Jun’s command hesitated not at all, unleashing mana, ready to act at any moment.
If Eastern Emperor Tai Yi dared to act, they would together suppress him.
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s eyes chilled as he stared at Emperor Jun, asking in a deep voice: “Emperor Jun, what does this mean?”
Emperor Jun smiled faintly, saying: “Haven’t you seen? I’m discussing an alliance with the Heavenly Court’s angels.”
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s face turned gloomy, and he turned to leave.
He didn’t ask why Emperor Jun wanted to ally with the Heavenly Court; he understood that once such a strong figure made a decision, it wouldn’t be changed.
Since Emperor Jun had betrayed him, he must have his reasons.
Nonetheless, Eastern Emperor Tai Yi felt Emperor Jun must have realized something.
Back in his Divine Temple, that voice appeared.
“Tai Yi, you can tolerate this? If we had joined forces earlier, killed Sun Wukong and the others, the alliance between the Heavenly Court and Emperor Jun would shatter instantly,”
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s eyes grew cold. He sneered, saying: “If you act, indeed you can kill Sun Wukong and them, but you would also be targeted by the Three Pure Ones. Do you want to face the Three Pure Ones?”
The voice fell silent immediately.
The Three Pure Ones are an incredibly terrifying threshold.
Were it not for them, there would be no need to hide.
“The Three Pure Ones aren’t so frightening. Were it not for my current recovery, mere Three Pure Ones wouldn’t scare me.”
The voice said proudly.
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi sneered with disdain.
Anyone can brag, but doing it is a mark of true strength.
During its peak, the opponent was defeated by the Three Pure Ones, much less now when it hasn’t recovered.
“Wait a little longer.”
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi took a deep breath, gambling on this moment.
Meanwhile, in Emperor Jun’s camp, Sun Wukong and the others fully believed in Emperor Jun’s sincerity for an alliance.
The Heavenly Court proposed some conditions, which were actually simple: not allowing Emperor Jun’s camp to expand or harm living beings.
Emperor Jun agreed to these without hesitation.
At their level, they have no obsession with harming living beings.
Emperor Jun and his followers simply disregard living beings, believing they can control their destiny.
As for massacres, such things are beneath Emperor Jun.
Even if they wanted to kill, at the very least, it would be immortals.
As for ordinary living beings, they’re too trivial to consider.
The levels are so different that there’s no real conflict.
As for not expanding territory, that’s temporarily agreed upon.
At least, until the threat is eliminated, he won’t expand.
As for what happens in the future, it mainly depends on the Heavenly Court’s power.
If the Heavenly Court’s power is too formidable, they will behave themselves.
