Chapter 1066: Chapter 324: Parting on Bad Terms
"This Wood God is very ambitious."
Xihe transmitted the message.
The Wood God thought he had concealed it well, but everyone could see his ambition.
"I know. Does the empress think he poses a threat to me?"
Emperor Jun countered.
Hearing Emperor Jun’s words, Xihe couldn’t help but chuckle softly.
She was indeed worrying too much.
Even if the Wood God were given a hundred more abilities, he still wouldn’t threaten His Majesty.
"Congratulations to His Majesty on gaining a capable general."
The Ancestor of Bones also congratulated him, though his expression was somewhat mocking.
"Haha, I fear this so-called capable general might not be so loyal in the future, perhaps even aiming to replace His Majesty and seize his position."
The Law Ancestor said coldly.
They all had a poor impression of the Wood God and didn’t mind exposing his secrets.
The Wood God’s eyes turned dark as he glanced at the Law Ancestor and said coldly, "Law Ancestor, do you think I fear you? To falsely accuse me like this, aren’t you afraid of the Heavenly Emperor’s punishment?"
The Law Ancestor smiled faintly and replied, "I’m only reminding His Majesty. Wood God, don’t be angry. If your conscience is clear, are you worried about what others say?"
The Wood God’s face turned black.
If his conscience were indeed clear, he naturally wouldn’t worry about what others said.
But the problem was he wasn’t; he had joined Emperor Jun with treacherous intent.
So, when the Law Ancestor said these things, the Wood God naturally felt a pang of guilt.
Of course, he couldn’t admit that he harbored ill intentions.
Therefore, the Law Ancestor’s words nearly enraged him to death.
He glared venomously at the Law Ancestor and snorted coldly, ultimately saying nothing further.
However, judging from the Wood God’s face, his expression was very unpleasant.
"Alright, everyone, please don’t argue. Today we gather to discuss how to deal with The Three Pure Ones. Since you don’t wish to become my subordinates, I won’t force you. I only hope that when the time comes to battle with The Three Pure Ones, you will assist."
"Naturally."
The Law Ancestor said in a deep voice.
"In this regard, His Majesty can rest assured. If The Three Pure Ones harbor ill intentions toward the Supreme, we naturally won’t stand by idly."
The Ancestor of Bones chimed in.
"Alright, enough of this, let’s drink, haha."
The Eastern Emperor Tai Yi changed the subject.
He also realized that these Supreme of the Primordial were not easily manipulated.
Taking advantage of them wasn’t going to be simple.
Though they were wary of The Three Pure Ones and the Heavenly Court, they were not blindly opposed.
As long as The Three Pure Ones didn’t cross their bottom line, these Supremes wouldn’t act.
The Eastern Emperor Tai Yi and Emperor Jun exchanged a glance, observing the heaviness in each other’s eyes.
To leverage these Supremes wouldn’t be an easy task.
However, they weren’t in a hurry.
After all, they couldn’t pressure them too hard now and needed to maintain good relations, to win these people over.
Caught between the Heavenly Court and The Three Pure Ones’ gaze, even if these members of the Supreme Alliance moved alongside them.
At that point, even if the members of the Supreme Alliance didn’t wish to oppose the Heavenly Court, they would still end up being targeted by them as allies.
Would they still worry about them not helping at that time?
After the banquet ended, the Ancestor of Bones and the others left.
Once far away from where Emperor Jun and his group were stationed, the Ancestor of Bones’ expression turned grave.
As he looked at everyone, he said seriously, "Everyone, I advise you not to get too close with Emperor Jun and his group, or you’ll risk total destruction."
Everyone was startled, though some remained indifferent.
The Law Ancestor couldn’t help but ask, "Why does the Ancestor of Bones say such things?"
The Ancestor of Bones glanced at him and said seriously, "Emperor Jun and the others are ambitious, and sooner or later, they will confront The Three Pure Ones. Getting too close to them will easily turn you into a tool in their hands. Do you wish to be used as their weapon?"
"But aren’t we originally enemies of The Three Pure Ones?"
The Law Ancestor asked somewhat puzzled.
In his understanding, they were inherently enemies of The Three Pure Ones.
Thus, confronting The Three Pure Ones was inevitable.
Even getting close to Emperor Jun and his group was normal.
The Ancestor of Bones’ warning left them somewhat unclear.
The Ancestor of Bones looked at the Law Ancestor and said lightly, "You’re mistaken, we are not enemies with The Three Pure Ones. As long as they don’t threaten us, why should we oppose them?"
Everyone was stunned, suddenly coming to a realization.
It seemed they had been too presumptuous, subconsciously thinking they were enemies with The Three Pure Ones.
In reality, if The Three Pure Ones didn’t attack them, there was no need to confront them.
Why would they think they had long lives?
"What if The Three Pure Ones decide to attack us?"
The Law Ancestor was still somewhat worried.
He believed that the previous targeting from the Heavenly Court indicated The Three Pure Ones’ intent to strike.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have formed the Supreme Alliance.
"We were all deceived by Primordial Phoenix and their kind, who fiercely opposed the Heavenly Court, leading us to mistakenly believe that the Heavenly Court wanted to wipe out these resurrected Supremes of the Primordial. Have you forgotten that Primordial Phoenix and the rest are now reconciled with the Heavenly Court, indicating the Heavenly Court never intended to eradicate us? As long as we follow the Heavenly Court’s rules, they even offer protection."
The Ancestor of Bones explained.
Everyone suddenly understood.
"Maybe it’s a deliberate act to deceive us, making us lower our guard and strike at us later."
This came from a man in Blue Clothes, his eyes gleaming as he disagreed somewhat with the Ancestor of Bones’ words.
Supreme Blue Lotus.
