The Immortal Emperor's face turned ashen. That old scoundrel! He absolutely had to protect Qingyi. As the city lord of Luojiao City in the Immortal Realm, Qingyi had been his right-hand man since childhood, one of the few subordinates who were absolutely loyal and capable. If he were to perish today...
Seeing that the Immortal Emperor remained silent for a long time, the impatient God Xu Bing made the decision for him directly, "Hey, you little brat, have you thought it through? To hand over or not to hand over? Anyway, I'm telling you right now, you have to hand over this person whether you like it or not!!"
The Celestial Emperor suppressed his urge to attack, drawing back his anger, and said kindly, "High God Xu Bing, Qing Yi is, after all, from our Celestial Realm..."
Xu Bing interrupted him directly, "So it seems you're not planning to pay?" The Immortal Emperor remained silent, his attitude firm and clear. Qing Yi couldn't die. To make an Immortal from the Immortal Realm pay with his life for a wounded junior of the Divine Race would make their Immortal Race a laughingstock of the Six Realms after today!
The atmosphere froze instantly. Qingfeng Shangshen glanced at Xu Bing. He hadn't wanted to be so high-profile, but some people just didn't know what was going on.
The God of the Wind looked sharply at the Immortal Emperor, but spoke to Xu Bing, saying, "Xu Bing, it seems that our God Clan has been inactive in the Six Realms for too long. Now our words have no effect, and everything dares to jump around in front of us!"
Xu Bingshen chimed in, "Who says otherwise? I remember Gu Xiong was just a minor general under our command back then, right?"
Immortal Clan: That's really... too much! At least give us some face!
Demon Clan: What God Xu Bing and the others said is more pleasing to the ear. They could say more of this.
Other onlookers: Is this something we can listen to for free? How exciting!
Hua Hua: As expected, the Gods Xu Bing and Qing Feng are still the most powerful. It seems I still have a long way to go to learn from them.
Chu Yu: "..."
The atmosphere on the scene immediately became tense. As the saying goes, you shouldn't hit someone in the face, but the two of them deliberately hit the immortals in the face, leaving them bruised and swollen.
Seeing the Immortal Emperor's face contorted with anger, yet he looked utterly helpless, Hua felt an immense sense of satisfaction!
The Immortal Emperor gritted his teeth, swallowed his anger, and said, word by word, "The two Supreme Gods are renowned for their power. My father is able to train under their command thanks to their guidance!"
The Immortal Emperor's words were truly aggrieved. He could say such insincere things, and even Hua couldn't bear to listen to him. No wonder he could become an Immortal Emperor; not everyone has that ability to bend and stretch.
The God of the Wind didn't even bother to give him a second glance, not wanting to beat around the bush, and said directly, "Hmph, since you know what's going on, that's good. In that case, are you going to hand her over yourself, or do we have to do it for you?"
Qingfeng Shangshen and the others have seen many people like this. They say one thing and do another. If they let him take Qingyi away today, Qingyi will reappear unharmed soon, and then the debt of hurting Xiaohua will be settled.
Absolutely not! Their divine race isn't some nameless, faceless bunch; this matter can't possibly be resolved so easily!
Chu Yu: "......" Another day of being ignored!
The Celestial Emperor knew that if he didn't give the Divine Race a satisfactory explanation today, this matter couldn't be resolved peacefully. He hardened his heart and said, "Since that's the case, Qingyi, you should cripple half of your cultivation. I wonder if the Divine Lord is satisfied with this result!"
The Immortal Emperor thought that he could cultivate again if his cultivation was ruined, and he would save her life for the time being. However, he did not expect the gods to be so resolute!
Qingyi knew very well that it was impossible for her to escape unscathed today. She was certainly reluctant to give up half her cultivation, but she could regain it; if she were to lose her life here...
Qingyi quickly weighed the pros and cons and was about to take action when Hua, who had been silent from the beginning, spoke up to stop her, "Wait, we didn't agree to what you said, she..." Hua pointed at Qingyi, "Today she must pay with her life!"
Hua Hua still feels a wave of fear when she thinks about Chu Yu lying weakly in her arms. Qing Yi hurt Chu Yu so badly, she would never let it go. Moreover, looking at Qi Lian in the distance, Hua Hua knows that Qing Yi still has a debt to settle with Qi Lian!
Qingwu supported Qingyi, her expression filled with resentment as she accused, "Huahua, don't keep saying you're always right. If you hadn't attacked me first, my mother wouldn't have attacked you. Besides, my mother has already been seriously injured by you. Can't you just let her go?"
Qingwu's earnest words, coupled with her pitiful appearance due to her serious injuries, successfully won the sympathy of the men watching.
Man A: Yes, they've already gone this far, why go to such extremes?
Man B: This goddess is really ruthless. Poor Qingwu.
......
Hua glanced at the people who were talking, then fixed her gaze on the man who was speaking the most aggressively. "Since you say she's pitiful and I'm heartless, how about this: you die in Qingyi's place?" Hua looked at him innocently.
The man, who had just been so "righteous," quickly waved his hand to distance himself, saying, "I was just joking with the goddess, please don't take it to heart. I promise I won't say it again!"
These people are just gossipy and all talk. They're all talk and no action, but once it gets involved with them, they're unwilling to back down. Ha!
Hua could only laugh at Qingwu's words, and she laughed out loud without any restraint, saying, "You really don't learn your lesson. Don't you know where your protective scale came from? If you don't believe what we said earlier, you might as well ask your dear mother right now!"
When Qingwu saw Qingyi's attitude as soon as she left the Hunyuan Secret Realm, she knew that what Hua and the others said was true. Now she was just saying this in the hope that they would spare her mother.
If her mother were gone, Qingwu knew very well that her life in the Immortal Realm would not be easy either. She would no longer be the daughter of the Lord of Luojiao City, whom she had once been so proud of!
Just as Hua was about to ask the High God Qingfeng to finish off Qingyi, a voice suddenly came from behind, "Qingyi must die today!"
