After some hesitation, the Seventh Elder drew his sword and faced the First Elder: "The one who just died, was it Ninth Sister?"
The First Elder did not answer. Seeing his complete silence, the Seventh Elder understood and burst into laughter: "She loved you for so many years, gave up so much for you, and in the end, she still became your stepping stone. Ye Che, have you ever had a single regret?"
Seeing the person who had loved him for so many years fall right in front of him, didn't he feel any regret? Not even a tiny bit?
The First Elder, Ye Che, spoke in a cold voice: "No! The demon race only seeks profit."
"Fine, fine, I know everything. Ye Che, you're a disgusting person, taking advantage of her feelings to hurt her. Ye Che, you'd better die!"
The Seventh Elder rushed forward with his sword. Although it was a rather sudden situation, the First Elder still had a lot of people with him. As for the other ministers and elders, most of them wanted to wait and see.
Cang Mu also started fighting with the demons sent by the Grand Elder, but he was also protecting Wan Ge while protecting himself, so he was indeed a bit overwhelmed.
Just as he was momentarily distracted, someone drew a sword and was about to stab Wan Ge. Cang Mu caught a glimpse of it, but at that moment he was trapped by two powerful demons.
In that instant, that feeling of utter helplessness returned. Why, even though he was a powerful demon, could he still not protect his sister? No! No! This absolutely cannot happen! He absolutely cannot watch the person he cares about die right before his eyes.
In that instant, Cang Mu's body erupted with extremely powerful force, nearly stunning all the great demons around him.
What appeared between their brows was not the mark that a demon should have, and what stunned them all in that instant was not demonic power, but divine power!
Before the other demons could react, many gods appeared in the sky above them. The leading god, seeing Cang Mu's seemingly happy expression, pretended to stroke his non-existent beard: "Your Majesty, you've finally returned to your position! Come back with us!"
Cang Mu seemed not to hear at all, still holding Wan Ge in his arms with a worried expression. Only after confirming that she was not in mortal danger did he turn his gaze to the leader of the God Clan.
He waved his hand and immediately ordered the divine generals to seize the gods in front of them.
The leading deity was stunned: "What does Your Majesty mean by this?"
Cang Mu gave him a cold look but didn't speak to him. Then he glanced at the Seventh Elder beside him and said, "Arrest him. We'll deal with him after my sister wakes up."
"Yes." The Seventh Elder didn't understand why he, a mere demon, had to obey the orders of a god. However, he sensed that the god's power, even if not above His Majesty's, was no less than His Majesty's, so he dared not say anything more and could only obediently agree.
…
After putting Wan Ge down, Cang Mu went to deal with his own affairs.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar face before him, he recognized him from two past lives.
In his first life, he was not yet the Emperor, but merely the successor to the Emperor. This person brought him back to the God Clan and began to teach and guide him. To him, this person was both a master and a father.
He held him in high esteem, but Cang Mu didn't realize until he jumped into the Reincarnation Platform that, to him, he was nothing more than a tool.
The former emperor failed his tribulation and is about to perish. Moreover, his power is no longer sufficient to maintain the operation of the Heavenly Dao. The God Clan needs an emperor who can ensure the normal operation of the Heavenly Dao.
