539 Demon Dragonâs Arrival
Right then, a terrifying dragonâs roar was heard in the sky.
The demon dragon had arrived!
It was a giant creature that was over 200 meters long. It soared in the sky, emitting a terrifying light and heat. It was an innate fire dragon.
For a moment, there was a commotion within the covenant of gods. Not only were the ignorant humans in a commotion, but even the priests and the powerful gods were looking at the demon dragon in the sky in disbelief!
âWhich powerful God is this? Is he here to protect us?â
âWith such a huge body and such scorching flames, this god is probably even more powerful than the God of Light!â
âWith this godâs protection, the covenant of gods wonât have to fear anyone!â
The above exclamations came from the covenant of gods. They looked up at the terrifying giant flying across the sky in a dumbfounded manner. In the face of such a powerful existence, the only thought they had was to submit.
âThis is demon dragon? How could its strength progress so quickly⦠Wait a minute, with so many followers in the Xia Dynasty, how could its cultivation not be fast!â
âWhat if weâ¦â
âBe quiet. The God of Darkness is right there. Do you want to die?â
âTimes have really changed!â
These were the words of many gods, and they could not hide their amazement. To be honest, they were looking forward to surrendering. They might have some resistance to being controlled by others, but if they could have so many divine beings assist in their cultivation, it might be a good thing to be controlled by others.
âWhy donât we go and discuss our change of mines with the God of Darkness? We can accept the amnesty together and enjoy the glory and wealth together!â
The eastern barren gods continued their discussion, and their thoughts were changing rapidly. After all, the changes in the demon dragon were visible to the naked eye. With such an eye-catching example, everyone now wanted a piece of that pie!
Compared to the eastern barren gods joy, the southern allianceâs people were solemn. The Xia Dynastyâs sacred beast, the demon dragon, was their old friend. When the new and old gods were replaced, the demon dragon left the northern lands because of the difference in ideals.
Now that it had joined the Xia Dynasty and become the sacred beast that protected the country, its strength had improved by leaps and bounds. Even if it were to face Mother Earth, it would not fall behind by too much.
For a moment, the thoughts of many ancient gods were difficult to understand. They couldnât accept the fact that their former companions were doing better than them. Not only did this mean that they had chosen the wrong path, but it also meant that their status was slightly lower than that of the demon dragon now. It was really unpleasant.
âHmph, whatâs there to be proud of when youâve become someone elseâs guard dog!â
âPerhaps the path of the new god is the way out for usâ¦â
âDo you also want to walk the path of the new god?â
âWho knows? Itâs a good way to become stronger. I donât care what way it is! I just want to become stronger!â
âHmph, youâ¦â
The ancient gods were also quarreling. Some were determined to walk on the path of the ancient gods, and some wanted to try the path of the new gods. Only Mother Earth remained silent. Now, she was also on the path of the new gods. Her strength, which had been stagnant, had begun to slowly improve again. This feeling was wonderful.
She glanced at the White Bear from the corner of her eye. She agreed with what he said about walking the path of a new God, but she did not want him to take this path. The reason was simple. There was a limit to the number of gods that could take this path. Once the White Bear occupied a spotâ¦
With that in mind, Mother Earth closed her eyes and sealed the killing intent she had.
After a while, she opened her eyes again and looked down at the rest. She thought for a moment and finally said, âSince the demon dragon is here, all the top experts of the Xia Dynasty should be here as well. Iâll hold off Human Emperor Lin Xuan while the rest of you fight the demon dragon. As for the other experts, leave them to the southern barbarians.â
At this point, Mother Earthâs eyes flickered for a moment before she continued, âOther than ourselves, we can also try to win over the powerful beings from the pact of all gods, especially the Moon God. Although sheâs one of the weaker gods, sheâs still a king. We can try to win her over!â
Hearing Mother Earthâs words, the southern barbarian emperor was a little hesitant. âThe southern barbarians and the eastern barren had a war before. Both sides suffered heavy losses. Under such circumstances, why would the eastern barren want to join forces with us?â
Mother Earth glanced at him and shook her head in an unteachable tone. âThe enemy of an enemy is a friend. Now that the covenant of gods is surrounded by the Human Emperor, their top priority is not to take revenge on the southern barbarians, but to get through this turmoil first!â
âWhite Bear, try and talk to the God of Darkness. We, the ancient gods and the southern barbarians, can work together to help her defeat the Human Emperor and protect the covenant of gods. As for the conditions, we just want half of the divine beings from the covenant of gods!â
The White Bear was stunned by Mother Earthâs command. Although it was an ancient god, it had the ambition to walk the path of a new god. How could it not know how large the number of believers in the pact of the gods was? There was no way the God of Darkness would agree!
âOf course I know she wonât agree, but sheâs taking a huge gamble right now, and sheâll have to assess the risk and rewards. Besides, White Bear, you want to walk the path of a new god right? Who am I doing this for? Itâs all for you. There arenât many humans in the central divine land. If you can move some people from the eastern barren territory to the central divine land, youâll have a stronger foundation!â
White Bear was stunned. He didnât expect this to be for him!
For a moment, he was touched, and tears fell from his eyes. Then he wiped his tears and made a heroic gesture. âOkay, Iâll go now!â
For others, it wasnât worth the time, but for himself, it was worth risking his life!
Mother Earth watched the White Bearâs departing figure, and the corners of her mouth curved into a cruel arc. She spat out a few words in an unnoticeable manner, âSt*pid bear.â
â¦
Lin Xuan was about to make his move when he noticed a figure leaving alone and walking into the covenant of all gods.
A few minutes later, the God of Darkness sent a message, saying that the southern alliance wanted to cooperate with her and make her pay the price. In return, the southern alliance would help her defeat the Human Emperor.
Lin Xuan was speechless.
This was getting interesting.
Lin Xuanâs interest was piqued. He pondered for a moment before asking God of Darkness for a price and agreeing to it.
It was quite interesting to play a double agent and spy game.
Lin Xuan smiled and looked at the sky. The sun was setting and it was about to enter nighttime. The battle that he had prepared was about to begin!
