In the highest hall of the Spirit Realm, nearly a dozen True Immortals stood.
They are here for one reason only: the opening of the four enormous secret realms this year.
As the person in charge of the Spirit Realm, Cheng Yao sat high in the sky, with less than a day left before the opening of the four secret realms.
Meanwhile, the demon race, together with its affiliated races, launched an attack on the borders of the human race, and their intentions were quite clear.
Inside the main hall, the immortals were arguing incessantly.
Every now and then, a silent yet terrifying aura of a true immortal would erupt.
"If you ask me, if they dare to come, don't even think about letting them leave. With both old and new grudges, no matter how many come, they'll all die!"
"I agree. Our human race is no longer the same as it once was. With the Human King gone, their humiliation, the decline of the Human King's Palace, and the recent events in the Sword Domain, these few True Immortal wretches who came here should all be executed!"
As the speaker finished speaking, a chilling killing intent instantly erupted—an intent to kill these alien races.
However, dissenting voices soon emerged.
"The Human King's great purge has weakened the human race too much. I'm afraid that when he gathers his strength, the gaps in the various domains will be exploited again."
"I believe that the most urgent task is to ensure the opening of the secret realm and prevent demon spies from infiltrating. As for the border, we only need to wait half a day until the secret realm is open and then we can concentrate our forces."
The two groups of True Immortals had different intentions: one side wanted to immediately kill the invading True Immortals, while the other side wanted to prioritize the opening of the secret realm.
However, the two sides still share a common point.
The Spirit Realm must not be allowed to descend into chaos now.
Someone must be stationed there.
Outside the four secret realms of the Spirit Realm, almost all the young geniuses of the entire human race have gathered.
If chaos were to break out in the Spirit Realm, it would undoubtedly be the most painful blow to the human race.
Among the crowd was Xiao Qi, who was watching the argument among the group of True Immortals, but she remained silent with a frown.
Based on her understanding of the demon race, ever since her master shattered the heavens and earth hundreds of years ago, the entire demon race has been filled with awe and fear towards the Human King, or even just the title.
Now... despite the great judgment the Human King recently brought upon the Elven race, they still dare to stubbornly come looking for trouble.
Something's not right, something's very wrong.
If the demons had stepped out of the shadow of the human king, they wouldn't have been so afraid to even look at him recently.
Something unusual must be going on.
At this point, their argument had reached a fever pitch.
Each of them had an unfriendly expression and seemed ready to start a fight at any moment. Cheng Yao, sitting in the very center of the hall, couldn't help but roll her eyes.
The demon race is indeed stronger than the human race in terms of overall strength.
But...we have a human king.
Ah, hahaha!
Cheng Yao chose to ignore their argument and turned her attention to Xiao Qi, who was present.
Seeing this being who once seemed to be obsessed with protecting the Human King's Palace and the human race.
If it were her back then, she would have suppressed them all by now, because back then she only wanted one voice to speak, and that was the voice of their Human King Palace. But now she sits quietly.
"What is the opinion of the Seventh Master of the Human King's Palace?"
Xiaoqi snapped back to reality in a daze.
Someone messaged her.
She looked at it and exclaimed, "Oh, it's Cheng Yao!"
After a moment's thought, it was clear that she was indeed in the most difficult position here.
She's the one who makes the final decisions in discussions here; if things go wrong and a decision leads to bad results, she'll bear a heavy responsibility.
"Sister Cheng, there's no need to call me that. The Human King Palace is naturally concerned about what happened back then. Just call me Xiao Qi. As for this matter... my master didn't reveal it, so I can't make decisions on my own."
Cheng Yao was overjoyed upon hearing this.
When the Human King Palace was weak, she remembered its inherent goodness and intervened to help it on many occasions, protecting some of its core members despite considerable pressure.
Now that the Human King has returned, the Human King's Palace has instantly become the number one power among humans. She has already been considered to have been given a chance to climb the social ladder because of past favors.
But her joy didn't last long; soon she couldn't laugh anymore.
A dark figure suddenly appeared in the entire hall.
Upon seeing this, Xiaoqi immediately stood up.
With the appearance of this figure, their argument ended immediately.
Everyone present stood up immediately, and Cheng Yao was not surprised.
The figure walked directly towards Cheng Yao, gesturing for her to leave with a pair of very beautiful eyes.
Cheng Yao was stunned for a moment, but quickly left her highest position.
A calm yet extremely domineering voice slowly resounded throughout the entire hall.
"Honestly, what's the point of arguing? If they invade, just kill them. The King and I will guard this place."
Xiao Qi instantly walked to the figure's side and quietly sent her a telepathic message.
'The black-clad woman is so cool.'
The person who came was none other than Xiao Hei.
Although these True Immortals harbored some resentment towards Xiao Hei and the Human King, they dared not show it.
After all, the rise of the Human King's Palace to become the number one power among humans has encroached on many of their interests.
Xiao Hei's words made the matter a done deal.
And after she finished speaking, she showed no sign of leaving.
Others also put aside their own opinions and began trying to get closer to Xiao Hei.
Just kidding. This guy's verifiable battle record shows that his strength has already surpassed the level of True Immortal a long time ago. How could you not try to get close to such a super strong person?
Even if I can't establish a connection, just getting to know them would be fine.
But Xiao Hei just waved his hand, and they couldn't help but back away.
