"How co, are you surprised to see ?"
Emperor Jiang glanced at Donghuang Taiyi, his lips curling into a smirk of mockery, then turned to Yu Yuan, a aningful smile appearing on his face: "Tian Yuan, my fellow Taoist, after all these years, you seem to have beco even more impressive than before!"
"It's alright," Yu Yuan smiled faintly, holding no great affection for Emperor Jiang.
The relationship between them was rely due to a common enemy—the Demon Clan Heavenly Court—which allowed them to co to so form of cooperation. It could not really be considered friendly.
Especially since the Witch Clan had also partaken in the massacre and blood-harvesting of humans, Yu Yuan's aversion towards the Witches had peaked.
However, the one who truly felt uncomfortable about Emperor Jiang Ancestor Witch's arrival was Donghuang Taiyi himself.
At this mont, Donghuang Taiyi's heart sank slightly.
After battling for so long, the Witch and Demon Clans were well aware of each other's capabilities and temperants, typically understanding each other's intentions at a glance.
Right now, Emperor Jiang Ancestor Witch's presence clearly indicated his intention to reap the fisherman's benefits while Donghuang Taiyi and Tian Yuan Ancestor were engaged in fierce combat.
Realizing this, Donghuang Taiyi instantly felt a chill in his heart and decided that a tily retreat would be the best course of action.
However, just as he was about to bring forth the Chaos Bell to leave Shouyang Mountain, he suddenly felt a terrifying aura rise from the void, and then overwhelming pressures from all around converged upon him, pinning him in place.
Donghuang Taiyi looked up, only to see dark clouds swirling, fierce winds howling, and thunder and lightning crashing around him.
Among the endless storms, six fearso figures descended from the sky, blocking his path.
Zhu Jiuyin, Zhu Rong, Gonggong, Houtu, Xuan Ming... and Emperor Jiang who had arrived first!
Altogether, six Ancestor Witches had gathered at Shouyang Mountain at this very mont, standing in Donghuang Taiyi's way.
Seeing this scene, Donghuang Taiyi's expression beca extrely unpleasant. He quickly tried to mobilize the power of the Chaos Bell to break through space and escape.
But before he could leave, Donghuang Taiyi suddenly saw the world before him darken, as endless malevolent and murderous energy spontaneously ford, disturbing the rules of this place like shackles, completely sealing off Shouyang Mountain.
"Do you all wish to fight a decisive battle to the death with ?" Donghuang Taiyi called out coldly.
As he spoke, his heart too felt a solemn chill.
He could sense the disorder in the rules of the place. Even with the Chaos Bell in hand, he wasn't able to break through the spatial constraints for the ti being and could only exert his utmost effort to break through the siege laid by the six Ancestor Witches.
But the combined forces of these six Ancestor Witches were truly terrifying. Although Donghuang Taiyi was powerful, he was struggling to withstand the united suppression of the six great Ancestor Witches.
"Heh heh..." Emperor Jiang's gaze was sinister, no longer paying attention to him, and instead turned to speak to Yu Yuan: "Tian Yuan, my Taoist friend, now is the best opportunity to slay this creature. Would you be willing to join forces with us?"
Upon hearing this, Donghuang Taiyi's heart sank yet again.
He was already struggling to cope with one Tian Yuan Ancestor, let alone the addition of the six great Ancestor Witches. Even with the protection of the Chaos Bell, he feared he couldn't hold out for too long.
After all, although the Chaos Bell was reputed to be indestructible, there is no unbreakable shield in this world—if the force is strong enough, even the Chaos Bell can be shattered.
And clearly, Tian Yuan Ancestor combined with the six Ancestor Witches had this capability.
Unless reinforcents arrived in ti, he was indeed in grave danger today!
With this thought, he couldn't help but look over at Tian Yuan Ancestor and shouted: "They are trying to use you! Surely you aren't foolish enough to be their tool?"
"Hehe~"
Yu Yuan chuckled lightly, looking carelessly at Donghuang Taiyi: "What's wrong, are you afraid?"
"Nonsense!"
Donghuang Taiyi responded with a cold laugh, his deanor seemingly full of disdain.
However, those who knew him understood that Emperor Donghuang was indeed shaken.
The situation was extrely unfavorable for him.
If Yu Yuan truly joined forces with the Ancestor Witches, Donghuang Taiyi would find himself in an extrely perilous situation.
After a brief contemplation, Yu Yuan still shook his head, smiling at Emperor Jiang: "We're not even close, why should I help you?"
"Not close?"
Zhu Rong Ancestor Witch suddenly roared furiously, pointing at Yu Yuan and scolding: "You ungrateful wretch! If it hadn't been for our coalesced assault on the Heavenly Court, hardly managing to rescue you from the Demon Court, how dare you repay kindness with enmity?!"
Zhu Rong Ancestor Witch grew angrier as he spoke, his face turning bright red and his eyes shooting out fierce beams, staring at Yu Yuan as if wanting to tear him to pieces.
"Oh?" Yu Yuan replied with a puzzled face, clueless about what Zhu Rong Ancestor Witch was ranting about.
"You insisted on storming the Heavenly Court to prevent the Demon Court from obtaining the Hongng Purple Qi, and indeed, you did a favor—I truly owe you for that.
But, do you really think just that would make lay down my life for your Witch Clan?"
"You...you...you infuriate !"
Zhu Rong Ancestor Witch was livid, angrily exclaiming: "If only we had known you were such an ingrate, we would have never stord the Heavenly Court to rescue you!"
At this mont, Donghuang Taiyi saw his chance to interject: "Zhu Rong, you're still trying to glorify yourself? You clearly just wanted to use him!"
"Nonsense!" Zhu Rong Ancestor Witch furiously retorted.
