Within the dedicated channel temporarily set up by all realms.
The phantom images of 105 pantheon gods slowly emerged.
"Alliance Leader."
The gods looked around and immediately understood the situation.
It is clear that the other party used their authority as the leader of the alliance to convene an emergency meeting.
Jiang Yan smiled and nodded, saying:
"It's been a long time, everyone. I've called you here today because I heard you've had some conflict among yourselves. May I ask what the reason is?"
"Alliance Leader."
Hearing Jiang Yan's straightforward words, a god-king of a weak pantheon exclaimed excitedly, "That's right! The Time Pantheon launched an attack on my Wilderness Great World without provocation, attempting to seize..."
But before he could finish speaking, the God of Time suddenly interrupted him sharply:
"Alliance Leader, this war was not started without cause. The Wilderness Gods borrowed 700 trillion Soul Crystals from me in ancient times, and have not yet returned them to this day."
"It was fine before, but now my Time God System is in a difficult time and urgently needs these Soul Crystals to restore its strength. They keep making excuses. I had no choice but to lead my believers to retrieve the property that belongs to my Time God System."
"You're talking nonsense!"
The Lord of the Wilderness roared, "This Soul Crystal was originally secured by the top-tier artifact, the Crown of the Wilderness. If you want this money back, you must at least return the artifact to me first."
"One thing at a time. I borrowed it through my own ability, so why should I pay it back?"
The Time God snorted coldly: "If you are not satisfied, you can do what I did and bring people to my Great World of Time to take it away yourself."
"you!"
The "Wilderness God" changed his expression several times. If he could defeat them, would he still need to be here?
"His actions are clearly those of a robber; we urge the Alliance Leader to uphold justice."
"Paying back debts is a matter of course, Alliance Leader, please take a look."
The Time God took out an ancient contract and said.
Jiang Yan glanced at them with his divine sense, but did not make a decision immediately. He looked at the other gods and smiled, "Then what is it about you?"
"The Flower Language God System killed the Void Diamond Flower, the spatial treasure I entrusted to them, and has yet to offer any compensation..."
"That was when the Supreme Being of the Abyss intervened, shattering the entire Flower Language Secret Realm. It was an act of God!"
"The Flower Language God" retorted angrily.
"The Puppet Pantheon created a model of the Vulcan God without permission, which damages the dignity of the Vulcan Pantheon..."
"Damn it, how many times have I told you, that's just an ordinary fire-attribute puppet!"
The "Puppet God" said with a grim expression.
What kind of prestige does your Vulcan system have? Everyone in the realms with a bit of status knows that you can't even protect the corpse of a true god. When your own daughter's billionth birthday celebration was disrupted by the Netherworld, you didn't dare utter a single word. What dignity are you talking about now?
A coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong!
Of course, he only dared to keep these words to himself. If he were to say them out loud, the enraged Vulcan would probably fight him to the death on the spot.
On the other side, Jiang Yan shook his head slightly.
These pantheons have coexisted for thousands of epochs, making it all too easy to find a legitimate reason for war.
But this is for the best.
What he wanted to see was a chaotic battle among the gods.
Once these weak pantheons can no longer hold out, they will naturally gravitate towards him one by one.
—Of course, it's best not to do it now.
Jiang Yan's gaze swept over the various powerful pantheons who were vaguely standing in a group.
It's clear they've completely banded together.
If these weaker pantheons were to defect at this time, it would not be a good thing.
This means he must protect these pantheons and forcibly stop the war.
At that time, the alliances of those powerful pantheons will have no choice but to retaliate, whether for the sake of their pantheon's dignity or their own interests.
After all, if the two sides were fighting well, and then stopped when they saw one side siding with the Holy Light Undead pantheon, then these powerful pantheons might as well just surrender.
Of course, these pantheons also do not want to confront Jiang Yanqi directly right now, which is why they patiently explain and give reasons to maintain a semblance of peace.
Therefore, the best course of action for both pantheons is to allow them to continue fighting each other, but without letting the weaker pantheons lose too quickly, thus weakening both sides.
The real opportunity to act will only come after a new batch of angels have finished upgrading, their equipment has been fully updated, the War of Gods has ended, and the divine positions have been distributed.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan spoke:
"Since you all have your reasons, I, the Alliance Leader, cannot make a decision unilaterally. Let's decide by voting, according to the rules of the Alliance of Gods. I, on behalf of the Holy Light and the Undead Pantheon, choose to abstain."
"Those who choose to continue the war, vote for the left; those who choose to maintain peace, vote for the right. Whichever side gets more votes, that side will be dealt with."
Upon hearing this, the gods of the powerful pantheons were overjoyed. As long as the Holy Light and Undead factions didn't interfere, the combined votes of the remaining 70-plus pantheons wouldn't even equal those of their top 30. They showered him with compliments:
"The Alliance Leader is fair and just; he is truly a role model for us all!"
Those weaker pantheons, especially the ones currently under attack, looked gloomy.
"The Musical God System has also chosen to abstain." The "Musical God Lord" chimed in with a smile, showing no sign of pressure.
As the first god to submit to the Holy Light pantheon, even if she accidentally wanders into the battlefield of other pantheons, both pantheons immediately stop fighting and wait for her to leave before taking action again.
Otherwise, if she were accidentally injured, the Holy Light pantheon might use that as an excuse to start a war.
"On behalf of the Space Pantheon, I cast 23 votes for the war to continue."
"Fire element, nineteen votes, vote for war continues."
"Wind element, 18 votes, vote for Continued War"
"Wilderness pantheon, five votes, vote for peace."
"Flower Language Divinity, four votes, vote for peace."
“...”
Soon all the pantheon votes were completed. Jiang Yan glanced at them and announced:
"The vote was 576 to 460, and the war continues. However, I hope you can turn hostility into friendship as soon as possible, because every warrior is a valuable fighting force in the future fight against the Abyss."
"Rest assured, we understand."
In high spirits, the gods of the Time-Space and Elemental Pantheons responded enthusiastically, then cupped their hands and said:
"Alliance Leader, now that the matter has been settled, we shall take our leave."
"Please go ahead, everyone." Jiang Yan nodded with a smile.
Soon, the phantom images of the gods disappeared into the exclusive channel for all realms.
Only a dozen or so pantheons remained that had been attacked.
They exchanged a glance, then hesitated before asking, "Why did the Alliance Leader send a telepathic message asking us to stay?"
"Are you all dissatisfied with my abstention?" Jiang Yan asked, glancing at the expressions of the gods.
"We dare not."
"As the leader of the Alliance of Gods, I must act impartially and cannot arbitrarily interfere in your war, but..."
Jiang Yan smiled slightly and said:
“If you befriend the gods under my command and invite them to help you, then I can’t stop you. After all, even the god-king can’t restrict his subordinates from helping their close friends.”
"What do you mean?" The eyes of the group of gods lit up.
Jiang Yan smiled without saying a word, gave the gods a meaningful look, and then his illusory image dissipated.
