The other four looked at the old man in horror. They had already believed that Yu Kai was the Thirteenth Ancient Heir, and now they were all panicking. To assassinate the Thirteenth Ancient Heir of the Wang Ting clan was a heinous crime, enough to bring punishment upon the entire clan.
"No, I wasn't qualified to participate last time." The old man shook his head, no longer pretending to be calm. "Your memory hasn't fully awakened yet, right? You're only a mid-stage Great Emperor now. Killing you is as easy as crushing a bug."
Yu Kai's face was gloomy, and he didn't say anything. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
"Mr. Li, this is the Thirteenth Ancient Descendant. What do you want to do?" The Rock-Horned Demon Bull with three-rune black horns spoke, with a hint of worry in his tone.
"I, the Emperor, am here to deal with this man on the orders of the Twelve Ancient Descendants!" Elder Li glared coldly at the Rock-Horned Demon Bull, then looked at the others. "What? Are you going to disobey the orders of the Twelve Ancient Descendants?"
"This..." The black-scaled mermaid with a fish tail retreated repeatedly, "This is a serious crime that will implicate the entire clan!" He looked at the middle-aged woman Qingyu Luan and the Lingteng Fox Fairy, his eyes full of help.
"You must either participate now on behalf of the Black Scaled Shark Clan and pledge allegiance to the Twelve Ancients, or die with him!" the Spirit Vine Fox Fairy said coldly, taking out her Phantom Vine Whip. Her voice carried an undeniable authority.
"You guys?" The Rock-Horned Demon Bull looked at Qingyu Luan and Li Lao who were approaching him in a threatening manner, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
"You must think clearly. Being valued by the Twelve Ancient Descendants is a blessing for us!" Elder Li turned his gaze to Yu Kai. "His memories haven't even been awakened, and even the Ancient Descendants' guards haven't been summoned. He's been missing for years. You can easily kill him here and join the Twelve Ancient Descendants. Become an Ancient Descendant's guard by the Twelve Ancient Descendants and lead your family to great heights!"
"Gu Di Wei!" The Rock Horn Demon Bull and the Black Scale Shark were both a little bit incredulous. That person was Gu Di's right-hand man. Once he became a Gu Di Wei, he could follow Gu Di into the royal court and become a figure who commanded all the races in the world.
"Why did the Twelve Ancient Heirs do this? If the matter is exposed, we and our respective families will be destroyed!" Black Scaled Mermaid still said worriedly, with a trace of fear flashing in his eyes.
"The struggle for the ancient heir has always been cruel. Who doesn't want to be the ancient heir king? One less thirteen ancient heirs means more resources!" Old Li said coldly, with a cruel look in his eyes.
“But billions of years have passed, when has the ancient descendants ever fallen? They all have great luck, how can they be killed so easily?” Black Scaled Mermaid still said worriedly, with a hint of trembling in his voice.
"It's enough for us to let him reincarnate once more! The Twelve Ancients will take action themselves in the future!" Old Li had an expression that showed he was in control.
"But what if he returns to the royal court in the future?" Black Scaled Mermaid was still worried, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
"Do you think the Twelve Ancient Heirs don't want him to go back? His territory's resources have been divided up by the other Ancient Heirs. Who would want him to go back?" Elder Li scoffed. "What's your choice now?"
"Do we have any other choice?" Black Scale Shark looked at Elder Li and said with a wry smile, "If we don't obey, not only will we die, but I'm afraid our entire tribe will also be slaughtered."
"Of course, you are a big clan in the ancient fairyland. Since you can't serve the ancient descendants, you must be eliminated!" Old Li spoke coldly, his voice revealed a murderous aura, and his eyes were full of determination.
"When did you join the Twelve Ancient Descendants?" The Rock-Horned Demon Bull looked at the Spirit Vine Fox Fairy and the Green Feather Luan, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, as if he couldn't believe it.
"We have been members of the Twelve Ancient Heirs for a long time! We just never made it public!" Qing Yuluan said in a calm tone, as if all this was a matter of course.
"The Twelve Ancient Clans have made a big move. Six of the ten ancient clans in the ancient fairyland have been controlled by him!" Xuanlin Jiao couldn't help but admire him. There was a hint of shock and helplessness in his eyes.
"Have you reached an agreement now? Can you tell me how you knew I was in the vast fairyland?" Yu Kai looked at Mr. Li with a cold look in his eyes and a questioning tone in his voice.
"Let you know what's going on. Li Dong has already surrendered to me." Old Li sneered. There was a sense of complacency in his eyes, as if he was in control of everything.
"What? This is impossible!" Yu Kai's face changed drastically, and he was extremely anxious. "Xuan'er!"
"I captured him a thousand years ago, and he surrendered to me then." Seeing Yu Kai trying to escape, Elder Li shouted at the Rock Horn Demon Bull and the others, "Attack!"
"Where are you escaping?" a massive sound wave roared from its mouth, rippling through the void as it passed, shattering everything in its path and rushing towards the fleeing Yu Kai. The sound wave was like an invisible blade, slicing through space and carrying with it a breath of destruction.
The Rockhorn Demon Bull roared, "Earth Prison!" The ground suddenly surged and shook. Earth walls rose from the ground, emitting a dazzling light, forming a sturdy prison that enveloped Yu Kai.
Yu Kai was struck by the sonic wave, and the ancient relic's Dharma body above him couldn't withstand the Saint Emperor's sonic attack and exploded. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body shrank as he slammed towards the surrounding prison. His eyes were filled with resentment and anger, and he shouted loudly, "Xuan'er!"
Xuan'er, who had been keeping a close eye on Yu Kai from Purple Mountain, saw the sudden outburst. Demonic energy surged around her, her eyes bloodshot. Worry and fear filled her heart, and she only wanted to rush over and save him.
"Xuan'er, you can't go!" Li Dong erupted in anger, his imperial might radiating from him as he stood before her. The five War Kings also gathered around her, each pointing their weapons at her.
"Get out of the way!" Xuan'er yelled, charging towards Li Dong with the Green Bamboo Emperor's Weapon in hand. Her movements were filled with madness, as if she wanted to destroy everything that stood in her way.
Li Dong was not shy and attacked her directly, and a fierce battle immediately broke out between the two. However, Xuan'er, lacking combat experience, was no match for Li Dong, and he quickly injured her severely. She was then sealed and captured by the five War Kings.
"Yu Kai!" Xuan'er fell to the ground and cried bitterly, her tears like crystal beads dripping into the dust.
Yu Kai, his body covered in blood and broken bones, seemed insane, constantly mobilizing the power of the false god to rush upwards. "Xuan'er..." His hoarse voice was filled with pain and unwillingness.
He once again broke free from the earth's prison, only to be mercilessly slammed down by the Black Scale Shark. With a resounding "boom," a large crater was smashed into the ground. He continued to vomit blood, but still used his trembling hands to support his falling body, trying to stand up again.
