The people in the main hall glanced at Chong Jiu and then stood up.
Of course, there were still a few deities who did not stand.
They all ascended to the God-Emperor realm around the same time as Wujie. After Wujie gained the title of God-Emperor, they were no different from each other except for the authority to govern.
In the past, they would have stood up to show respect, but after yesterday, they all felt a bit uncomfortable and stopped getting up.
And everyone was glancing sideways at the doorway, wanting to see how he arrived.
Upon seeing the person who walked in, the deities were all taken aback and turned to look at Fan Yin.
Fan Yin naturally believed that Chong Jiu and the others would not lie to her, so the only possibility was that Wu Jie had found a matching arm.
Whose could it be?
Fan Yin surveyed the entire hall; aside from a few deities who were absent, almost everyone had arrived.
Wait, there are still a few old men who haven't arrived.
But surely he wouldn't use the arms of the God and the old man; their strengths are mismatched, and this could lead to necrosis.
Fan Yin stroked her chin and raised an eyebrow as she looked at Wu Jie's right hand.
Even Yama looked at Chongjiu, asking, "Didn't you say the wound couldn't heal?"
Chong Jiu watched Wu Jie walk in with his entourage, but showed no intention of getting up. When he saw Wu Jie's right hand hanging down, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Wu Jie looked at Chong Jiu, and although his mind was filled with countless thoughts, he still held back, pretending that he knew nothing and that nothing was related to him.
Wujie felt angry that he was ranked below Chongjiu, but what could he do?
Chong Jiu's status is no lower than his, and may even be higher. Moreover, he is the protagonist today, so this arrangement is not unreasonable.
But he felt that Chongjiu was disrespecting him, which was why he made such an arrangement.
Otherwise, when that deity holds a banquet, he wouldn't be on equal footing.
"Ajiu, you've been in seclusion for a long time. Have you made any breakthroughs?" Wujie asked with a smile after sitting down.
After calming his thoughts, he began to doubt again whether the person who broke his arm that day was him.
He had just lost his arm, and today he was "coming out of seclusion".
However, his natal weapon is not a spear. Could he possibly change his natal weapon?
Chong Jiu glanced at him leisurely and uttered two words indifferently, "No."
He glanced at his right hand before saying coldly, "The God Emperor is somewhat different today than before."
Boundless's right arm subconsciously shrank back. "Oh, how is it different? Is it because I, the Emperor, have broken through?"
Although his breakthrough was achieved through the accumulation of divine items, he has still reached the Upper God Realm.
There are only a handful of Supreme Gods in the entire Upper God Realm.
However, this God Emperor had always remained at the ninth level of the Heavenly God realm, stagnating. His heart was always impatient until he broke through to the Upper God realm, at which point he finally relaxed.
The reappearance of Chongjiu has plunged him into anxiety again; he fears that Chongjiu will retaliate after discovering the truth.
Chong Jiu glanced at Fan Yin before saying calmly, "Perhaps. It's quite interesting that the aura of a God Emperor changes with a breakthrough."
Wujie's pupils contracted; he had forgotten that Chongjiu could see through many things that ordinary people could not.
Wujie chuckled dryly and said, "The aura has changed? How come I didn't sense it?" As he spoke, he tucked his right hand into his sleeve.
Chong Jiu glanced indifferently at the retracted right hand, gave it a sarcastic look, and then looked at Rong Jin and said, "Rong Jin, let's begin."
Rong Jin nodded to him, then moved his fingers, and Hong Lang and Bai Jue each led a group of people in.
Wujie didn't think much of Honglang when he saw her, because he already knew she was back.
But Bai Jue's appearance surprised him.
Ban Heng said he sealed Bai Jue away, so how come he's here?
Bai Jue noticed his gaze, curled her lips and looked at him, "God Emperor, why are you so surprised to see me?"
Wujie smiled and shook his head, saying, "It's not that I'm surprised, it's just that I haven't seen Lord Baijue for a long time. I wonder what wonderful place Lord Baijue has found to travel to this time."
Bai Jue grinned and said, "Of course, Shenzhou Yicheng is a good place. If the God Emperor has time, he can go and have a look."
"Oh, there's another good place that might interest the God Emperor as well."
Wujie's smile faded slightly. "Oh, I wonder what kind of place it is that has earned such praise from Lord Baijue."
He knew exactly what Yicheng was; it was the place where he raised blood slaves.
Bai Jue's smile faded slightly, and his eyes turned cold. "It is indeed a good place. I think if you have time, you can ask Lord Banheng. He is quite close to the God Emperor, so he must know about that place."
The slight suspicion that had just arisen in Wujie's heart about Ban Heng immediately dissipated considerably. "Oh, Ban Heng knew about it too?"
“Of course, he took me there, how could I not know?” Bai Jue said, looking at him with a half-smile.
Wujie narrowed his eyes, trying to guess his meaning, and the doubts in his heart rose again.
He didn't know where Ban Heng had sealed Bai Jue, but what Bai Jue meant by saying that was that Ban Heng hadn't sealed him away.
Bai Jue's original intention was not to sow discord between Wu Jie and Ban Heng, but simply to make a few sarcastic remarks to him.
When he saw Wujie's suspicious look, he smiled and realized that he had accidentally hit the mark.
Chongjiu and Fanyin exchanged a glance and made a plan in their hearts.
At this moment, Lord Kelan suddenly leaned close to Fanyin's ear and whispered, "Lord Fanyin, can you feel it? There is a faint trace of evil aura on the God Emperor."
Fan Yin glanced at him sideways, her eyes asking, "Really?"
Lord Kelan nodded without hesitation, "It really is there, but it's very faint; you can't even notice it if you're not looking closely."
Fan Yin turned to look at Wu Jie and asked with a smile, "God Emperor, when did you become left-handed?"
"What's wrong? Is your right hand injured? Is it serious? Should we call a renowned doctor?"
Wujie raised his right hand, but put it back down before he could put it on the table. He smiled and said, "I was a little injured, but it's nothing serious. With my cultivation, I will recover quickly."
"Tsk, who in the Upper God Realm is so bold as to dare to injure a God Emperor? And to actually injure a God Emperor? Unforgivable." Fan Yin's words were laced with sarcasm.
Everyone present was shrewd and intelligent, so naturally none of them failed to understand. They all looked at him in surprise, and also looked at the God Emperor in astonishment.
When did their relationship become so bad?
Wujie's smile almost cracked. "There are only a handful of people who can harm me in the Upper God Realm. I'd also like to know who they are."
As he spoke, he glanced at Chong Jiu. Apart from Chong Jiu, the others were all in seclusion and could not possibly come out to harm him.
So, no matter how he thought about it, he still suspected him.
Fan Yin didn't know what kind of injury Chong Jiu had inflicted on the God Emperor, so she didn't respond.
