Chapter 1079: Chapter 328: Marked for Death by the Eastern Emperor Tai Yi (Part 6)
Although their strength is not yet on par with Emperor Jun and his group, they have dared to suppress the Three Pure Ones.
Such a Heavenly Court, whoever underestimates them will suffer a huge loss.
"Under Emperor Jun and Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, tens of thousands of soldiers were lost, and many strong ones fell too. Although the Heavenly Court also lost many people, most of the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals can have their bodies remolded, with an estimated loss of only about ten thousand."
The Wood God said with a smile.
From the number of deaths at the time, it seemed that Emperor Jun’s side had gained a great advantage.
But in reality, they were the ones at a disadvantage.
The Heavenly Court controls the Underworld, so even if only a wisp of a soul remains of the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, they can be resurrected.
Meanwhile, on Emperor Jun and Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s side, once someone dies, they lose one. Moreover, once those souls are processed, they might even become Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, turning into their opponents.
The Wood God knew this, and there was no way Emperor Jun and his group didn’t know this.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have ordered a retreat after sounding the golden chime.
"However, what’s strange to me is that despite such a major loss, Eastern Emperor Tai Yi and Emperor Jun remained inactive and watched from the sidelines."
The young man sneered and said: "Who said they don’t want to act? They were merely held back by someone. Lord Taishang fought with the two of them, and a mutual understanding was reached. In this kind of battle, Emperor Jun and Eastern Emperor Tai Yi cannot intervene."
Ah, so that’s it, the Wood God realized.
He frowned slightly and said: "In that case, isn’t Emperor Jun’s side bound to lose? The Three Pure Ones are an insurmountable mountain for them. Even if they defeat the Heavenly Court, battling the Three Pure Ones is of no use."
"However, the Three Pure Ones cannot go all out; they have greater troubles waiting for them."
The Wood God’s heart raced wildly. He clearly understood that the young man’s words would soon reveal some huge secrets unknown even to him.
He listened intently, but the young man didn’t continue speaking.
This made the Wood God anxious, wishing he could pry open the young man’s mouth to make him continue.
"What trouble does the Three Pure Ones have?"
With no choice, the Wood God had to ask actively.
He was very eager to learn about such secrets of the world.
According to the Wood God’s experience, the more you know, the longer you can live.
The ignorant are fearless, not suitable for the Three Realms.
Generally, those who dare to be fearless without knowledge tend to die quickly.
After all, in the Three Realms, besides the Heavenly Court maintaining stability, as for the mutual slaughter among cultivators, it goes unchecked.
As long as it doesn’t harm the masses, ordinary personal grievances are of no concern to the Heavenly Court.
Unless it affects ordinary people, only then might the Heavenly Court bring down its authority.
"Our lineage is precisely the trouble of the Three Pure Ones."
With a seemingly mocking smile, the young man glanced at the Wood God, clearly knowing what he was thinking.
However, he obviously had no intention of enlightening the Wood God.
Some matters were unclear even to him, only vaguely heard, so it was impossible to explain them to the other party.
The Wood God was speechless; he knew the young man didn’t want to tell him.
Without further questioning, the Wood God stated the purpose of his return.
The young man’s eyes sparkled as he said solemnly: "Emperor Jun and Eastern Emperor Tai Yi want to ally with us? They’re not worthy!"
He wore a sneer, expressing disdain, and firmly refused.
The Wood God was stunned, with a face full of shock.
He hadn’t expected the young man to say such words, thinking that Emperor Jun and Eastern Emperor Tai Yi weren’t worthy of an alliance with their lineage.
Even the Wood God was speechless, not knowing what to say.
This young man was simply too arrogant.
He didn’t even respect the Heavenly Emperor, not considering them capable of being allies.
Just how powerful was their lineage?
"But those are two Heavenly Emperors!"
The Wood God couldn’t help but speak.
The young man sneered again, expressing some disdain.
"What two Heavenly Emperors? Only Emperor Jun has some worth. As for Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, he’s just a petty person, a mere salesman flaunting his goods."
"Hehe, is that how lowly I appear in your eyes?"
A gentle, faint laugh sounded.
The young man’s expression changed as he turned abruptly.
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi appeared not far from him, with a slight smile on his lips, eyes filled with infinite majesty as he stared at the young man, instantly making him feel immense pressure.
Claiming that Eastern Emperor Tai Yi was a mere salesman was his father’s original words.
But that was his father, that unfathomably great figure.
As for the young man himself, he had no qualifications to speak of Eastern Emperor Tai Yi in such a manner.
Upon seeing Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, even his body tensed up.
Only now did he realize how terrifying Eastern Emperor Tai Yi truly was.
The Wood God’s face darkened, staring at Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, he said: "Tai Yi, you dare to follow me?"
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi smiled and said: "Why wouldn’t I dare? Can you defeat me?"
The Wood God’s face turned black as he glared fiercely at Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, but inside he felt helpless.
The Wood God knew very well that he was no match for Eastern Emperor Tai Yi.
No matter how unwilling, it was impossible to do anything against him.
With this in mind, he sighed dejectedly and then suppressed his emotions.
The young man, at this time, wasn’t too nervous either.
He kept his eyes on Eastern Emperor Tai Yi and asked: "Tai Yi, what do you want with me? It seems you’re not just here to flaunt your prowess? I also apologize for my earlier words; I truly lack the qualification to comment on you in that way."
Eastern Emperor Tai Yi smiled faintly, not taking it to heart.
He said blandly: "You are not yet qualified to speak with me; let your father come."
The young man’s eyes turned cold as he stared at Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, his expression stern, and a strong sense of dissatisfaction rose in his heart.
He respected Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s great power, which was why he apologized earlier.
