617: Chapter 242: Creation Divine Powers, A Dream of Reincarnation Through the Ages_4 617: Chapter 242: Creation Divine Powers, A Dream of Reincarnation Through the Ages_4 Seeing Ao Zhan speak like this, the immortals felt somewhat relieved.
“Are we still attacking the Court of Ancient Gods?”
Nezha asked a question.
To attack or not to attack?
Everyone looked at each other, seeing the seriousness in each other’s eyes.
“Attack.”
Great Emperor Ziwei clenched his teeth as he spoke.
He was currently full of frustrations; not attacking the Court of Ancient Gods felt uncomfortable to him.
He had been striving to be a supreme ruler in the Three Realms, yet why did everything happen to him.
“In half a day, we will deploy immediately.
I will lead the troops personally.
Also, spread my decree to search the Three Realms for Primordial Bird and widely publicize his act of killing the peacock and his attempt to frame the Heavenly Court.
It won’t be that easy.”
Great Emperor Ziwei said coldly.
Ao Zhan hurriedly responded, “Your Majesty, I was just speculating; I’m still not certain it was done by the Primordial Bird.”
“Whether it is the Primordial Bird or not, let’s pin the blame on him first.”
Great Emperor Ziwei said decisively.
After all, this act was not done by the Heavenly Court.
Everyone suddenly understood; they admired the wisdom of Great Emperor Ziwei.
Primordial Bird wanted to fault the Heavenly Court, making it his tool in clashing with the Primordial Phoenix.
Great Emperor Ziwei’s counterattack was even more ruthless, ensuring the entire Three Realms knew that Primordial Bird was responsible.
Even if the Primordial Phoenix learned of the peacock’s death, suspecting the Heavenly Court, it would also affect her thoughts accordingly.
“Three men make a tiger, many mouths overcome truth.”
Great Emperor Ziwei also learned a thing or two from Tathagata Buddha’s strategies.
At least, this method of attacking the opposition with public opinion was something he had not known before.
But after seeing Tathagata employ it twice, Great Emperor Ziwei learned as well.
He was inherently intelligent; it’s just that, as an emperor of the heavens, he was not adept at scheming,
Now, with deliberate learning, there might soon be another cunning old fox in the Three Realms.
“What about the Eastern King?”
Sun Wukong asked.
“He’s guarding the gateway to the Demon Realm.
He told us to rest assured and strike; he’s there guarding the gateway of the Demon Realm, ensuring that there will be no accidents.
As long as we don’t harm the Queen Mother of the West, he has a way to make her submit to the Heavenly Court.”
Great Emperor Ziwei explained.
The Eastern King still opted not to attack the Court of Ancient Gods directly.
This made Sun Wukong somewhat regretful, but he quickly adjusted his emotions.
This sort of thing was, in fact, foreseeable.
Given the Eastern King’s protection of the Queen Mother of the West, he naturally didn’t want her to feel that her failure this time was related to him and then hold a grudge against him forever.
Thus, the Eastern King’s choice to guard the gateway to the Demon Realm was indeed the best option.
On one hand, he was contributing effort, and on the other hand, even if the Court of Ancient Gods was dispersed and the Queen Mother of the West’s plans utterly failed, she wouldn’t blame the Eastern King.
After all, the Eastern King had not taken direct action, and moreover, to allow her to survive, he became a subordinate of Great Emperor Ziwei which was enough to keep the Queen Mother of the West from reprimanding him.
The Eastern King played his cards well.
But Great Emperor Ziwei and the others didn’t mind,
As long as there wasn’t the concern of the Demon Realm’s intervention, taking down the Court of Ancient Gods was not a difficult task.
Only by taking down the Court of Ancient Gods and using those Ancient Gods to his advantage,
Would Great Emperor Ziwei have more power in his hands to contend against them when the gods and demons of the Primordial Era returned.
With these thoughts in mind, Great Emperor Ziwei’s resolve to conquer the Court of Ancient Gods grew firmer.
The group set off toward Kunlun.
The grand banners of the Heavenly Court fluttered, and the heavenly drums roared, shocking the Ancient Gods of Kunlun awake.
Their expressions changed dramatically as they looked towards the vault of heaven; the Heavenly Court really dared to take action.
Did they not fear the Demon Realm would seize the opportunity to invade the Three Realms?
In fact, after learning of all this, the Demon Realm was indeed preparing to take action.
But, Heavenly Emperor Suiren appeared silently alongside the Eastern King, staring down the Demon Realm’s move.
Tian Hao’s gaze flickered as he focused on the two men, his expression grave.
Against two Supreme Level powerhouses, he struggled to stand against both.
Simultaneously, Zhu Long also appeared; his gaze icy as he stared down Tian Hao.
Tian Hao looked at Zhu Long and, with a faint smile, said, “Zhu Long, you’ve come too.
Come into the Demon Realm with me and join hands with me to attack the Three Realms.”
Zhu Long did not move, only coldly staring down Tian Hao, his eyes filled with towering killing intent.
Seeing Zhu Long not heed his words and instead glare at him hatefully,
Tian Hao frowned, discontentedly saying, “Zhu Long, what’s with that expression?
Have you forgotten the kindness I showed you?
If it weren’t for me, you would still be sealed at the North Heavenly Pass, unable to free yourself forever.”
Zhu Long then revealed a cold smile, hatefully saying, “Tian Hao, you still want to deceive me.
Do you think I don’t know your true identity?
Haotian God, how much longer do you plan to deceive me?”
With Zhu Long’s words spoken, Suiren’s face drastically changed.
It was as if the Eastern King had already known about Tian Hao’s identity, showing no surprise at all.
He seemed to have already known Tian Hao’s identity, which is why he wasn’t surprised.
Suiren, puzzled, asked, “Fellow Daoist Zhu Long, is that Tian Hao really the Haotian God?”
“No doubt about it, apart from him, who else could unlock my seal?
That was a technique personally employed by Haotian God, specifically targeting the Demon Realm.
Unless he is Haotian God and exceedingly familiar with the methods employed to suppress me, only then could he have unlocked the seal under the guise of Evil Demons.”
As he spoke, Zhu Long’s face was filled with hatred.
“Detestable traitor, to think he still deceived me, claiming to have been kind to me asking for my help.
I even helped him try to kill Sun Wukong.
Fortunately, I was unsuccessful, or else I would have never learned the truth or known his identity, still being used like a fool.”
Tian Hao calmly responded, “Zhu Long, you are truly laughable, preferring to believe an enemy’s words over mine.
I truly regret it now; I should have killed you at the start instead of saving you and then unlocking the seal.”
