The arrival of Emperor Cangxu and others was actually not surprising.
He knew very well what Brother Cheng's power was.
The Spirit Realm hadn't really taken any risks, yet it managed to gain a lot of favor in front of these big shots.
Why not?
It's just that the others couldn't understand.
When they heard he was going to help the Demon Realm, the first reaction of Jiu Jue and the other Immortal Emperors wasn't anger, but astonishment.
"Why are you doing this?"
"The relationship between your Spirit Realm and the Demon Realm isn't that great, right?"
"What benefit do you gain from this?"
"Cangxu, do you dare to stand against our Immortal Realm, risking bringing down the entire Spirit Realm with you?"
Indeed, the Returning Immortal was formidable, but Cangxu and the over twenty-odd Quasi-Emperor Level Returning Immortals alone weren't enough to shake the grand scheme.
At most, Cangxu could solidly defeat one of those top-tier Immortal Emperors, even two joining forces would be enough to give him a hard time.
Ultimately, it would only create some trouble for the Immortal Realm side, causing them more casualties.
That's all, it couldn't reverse the overall power comparison between the two sides.
They couldn't understand why the Spirit Realm decided to make such a foolish decision of seeking their own demise.
Of course, Cangxu wouldn't tell him that Sect Leader Jiang was destined to win, and he was just here to tag along for some favor.
On the surface, he still needed to say some grandiloquent words.
"Your Immortal Realm is acting in a tyrannical and arbitrary manner, haven't you oppressed our Spirit Realm enough over the years?"
"We simply endured silently before!"
"Now you've recklessly invaded the Demon Realm, completely destroying the bottom line!"
"We deeply understand the principle of 'when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold', how can we let you continue to rampage?"
"In this battle, our Spirit Realm will fight side by side with the Demon Realm, never abandoning each other!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole scene erupted.
On the Immortal Realm side, naturally, there was a cacophony of curses.
"Destroy the Demon Realm, and wipe out your Spirit Realm in the process!"
"Overestimating yourselves!"
"This is what your Spirit Realm asked for!"
"We've long found your Spirit Realm unpleasant!"
On the Demon Realm side, however, there was a burst of cheers and gratitude.
"The friends from the Spirit Realm are so supportive?"
"Damn, had I known, I would've been more polite to them before."
"Welcome, brothers from the Spirit Realm!"
"Thank you for your support, Spirit Realm!"
Though even with the Spirit Realm joining, the overall strength of the Demon Realm was still far inferior to the Immortal Alliance, this already boosted the morale of the Demon Realm's side by more than tenfold.
This time the Immortal Alliance's invasion had the Demon Realm eyeing fiercely.
The Barbaric Realm and the herworld were silent, and they even had to be guarded against them coming over to get a piece of the action.
The Demons thought they were fighting alone, never expected reinforcements.
This sudden emergence of a powerful reinforcement warmed the hearts of all demons.
Even the usually stern White Tiger Emperor couldn't help but laugh heartily and quickly welcomed them.
"Emperor Cangxu, welcome to your arrival!"
Other Demon Emperors were also elated, suddenly feeling the situation wasn't that desperate anymore.
"Didn't expect the fellows of the Spirit Realm to be so supportive."
"We will remember your support today, Demon Realm!"
"From now on, our two realms are unbreakable allies!"
Honestly, they were still puzzled inside.
The relationship between our Demon Realm and the Spirit Realm wasn't particularly close before.
The Demon Emperors and the Spirit Realm's Emperor weren't exactly bosom friends.
Is it really just for the reason of 'when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold', that experts came across realms to support?
Isn't that unbelievable?
Surrounded by many Demon Emperors, Cangxu dared not to get complacent at all.
He cautiously glanced at Brother Cheng, casually exchanging pleasantries.
"No problem, this is what we should do!"
The Demon Emperors chimed in, "Emperor Cangxu, you're too modest..."
"Not at all, not at all, it's all thanks to the Senior Jiang Cheng; we're all here for him!"
Huh?
Senior Jiang Cheng?
The Demon Emperors almost didn't catch who that referred to at first.
This kid, though powerful and noble as the Demon Lord, started late, and should be just a junior in front of you, Cangxu?
"So, the fellows from the Spirit Realm were invited by the Master of Grand Demon to assist in battle?"
The Demon Emperors looked at Brother Cheng with a bit of apology and admiration.
They thought the Demon Lord did nothing after coming into power and was completely unreliable.
Who knew they misjudged!
Secretly bringing in such a super-powerful reinforcement, what a strategy!
Great!
Capable!
To invite them over, the Demon Lord's face couldn't be underestimated!
For a moment, the demons in the rear, including the Sparrow Race, erupted in endless praise.
"Long live the Master of Grand Demon!"
"The Master of Grand Demon rocks!"
"The Demon Lord is even doing well in the Spirit Realm, how amazing is that?"
"That's why he's called the Lord of the Demon Realm, way better than the old Qilin Race!"
"Indeed, our Demon Lord not only has great strength but also broad connections and inscrutable means!"
Brother Cheng felt bewildered seeing the reverent gazes of the surrounding Demon Emperors, hearing the overwhelming praise.
Did I unknowingly put on a show again?
It was unexpected and totally unplanned.
He definitely hadn't informed the Spirit Realm.
But Emperor Cangxu hurriedly waved his hand, "Dare not, dare not, the Master of Grand Demon wouldn't need to call us, just one word from him, and we'll brave wind and rain, go through fire and water without hesitation!"
The Demon Emperors didn't know if he meant that sincerely.
They thought it was a pleasant circumstantial remark.
However, to say such things at this level, was proof that the Demon Lord was doing exceedingly well outside.
Seeing Cangxu come and interrupt his performance, Brother Cheng was quite displeased earlier.
He was considering driving him away.
Now he felt, this old fellow was rather cute.
Helping me put on a show, he wasn't a useless teammate after all.
"So what if the Spirit Realm joins?"
After a brief shock, the Jiu Jue Immortal Emperor on the opposite regained his composure.
"Disrespectful!"
"Cangxu, you insist on burying the Spirit Realm; don't blame us for being ruthless!"
Yushu and other Immortal Realm big shots regained their calm as well.
Nothing to fear, even if the other side had the Returning Immortals, the Emperor Realm only added up to 20 or so.
The Immortal Realm had over a hundred, a fivefold advantage, completely the situation of a Flying Dragon Riding Face.
"Jiang Cheng!"
"Remember how you disrupted Biluo Heart Palace back in the day? Today is the day to settle the score!"
The Yushu Immortal Emperor was the first to jump out.
Back then, Brother Cheng used his name to deceive a large batch of Spirit Medicine from the Biluo Heart Palace, making it a laughingstock to this day.
He wished he could tear Brother Cheng to pieces.
The Immortal Sword displayed, countless chains of rules crisscrossed, filling the battlefield between both sides.
"Come out and meet your death!"
Feeling the terrifying power emanating from those chains, countless demons were terrified.
However, beside them, Emperor Cangxu just wanted to laugh.
You dare to single-handedly fight with Sect Leader Jiang?
Who gave you the courage?
"Alright!"
Brother Cheng also summoned the Purple Flame Sword, ready to dispatch this Immortal Emperor in an instant.
Suddenly, a figure rushed out ahead.
"Just the mere Yushu, how dare you act arrogant?"
