Tian Wanbao arrived with two old elders from the Multi-Treasure Pavilion — both at early Tribulation Realm — along with the Master of the Heavenly Secrets Hall and the two elders from the Kao Clan, husband and wife…
Clearly, once the great battle in U Origin expanded in scale, they immediately sensed it and rushed over without hesitation…
Hiss…
When they saw Ju Mei Ying standing proudly against the sky, the miserable state of the Turtle Shell Old Man, and Niu Wu Ba's disheveled appearance, the entire group couldn't help but suck in a sharp breath of cold air…
Who was this giant woman? She looked no different from a human, yet her body size was enormous. Moreover, they clearly sensed that her massive size was natural and not the result of any secret technique or cultivation method…
Was it this woman who had brought the Turtle Shell Old Man to such a wretched state?
They knew very well just how terrifying the old turtle's defensive power was. Although his mouth was quite foul… his defense was truly exceptional.
Although they were curious about Ju Mei Ying's identity, they also knew it was not the time to investigate. They had to resolve the ongoing battle first.
As for Niu Wu Ba, it seemed he had been suppressed by Yan Yueqi and Hua Qingzhu, yet the two women's true bodies were still nowhere to be seen?
Tian Wanbao and the Master of the Heavenly Secrets Hall exchanged glances, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.
Niu Wu Ba's true form was no ordinary one. The Five-Colored Imperial Ox was a direct descendant of the legendary Divine Beast, the Five-Colored Divine Ox. According to ancient records… the Five-Colored Divine Ox was an existence that could rival the Qilin.
The Five-Colored Heaven-Flattening Light was a powerful inherited technique from the Five-Colored Divine Ox… Even Tian Wanbao had to be extremely cautious when facing it.
All the top powerhouses knew that Niu Wu Ba was capable of fighting above his level. Yet today he had suffered such a huge loss. How could Tian Wanbao and the others not be shocked?
"Hmph! All of you represent the Blood Extermination Alliance Council. You clearly know our rules, yet you still violated them. How can you expect others to submit?"
Although Tian Wanbao usually had a good temper, seeing the newly formed Alliance erupt into such a large-scale internal war — with high-ranking members involved — how could he not be furious?
He had always been mild-mannered and valued harmony, but he was definitely not a pushover. If this matter was not handled properly, those under him would never truly respect him.
At this moment, from within the teleportation array, two peerlessly elegant figures calmly stepped out…
Yan Yueqi wore snow-white robes that hugged her mature figure. Her red hair was tied high, and her sharp, phoenix-like eyes flashed with arrogance…
Hua Qingzhu wore a blue palace dress, elegant and noble like a queen. Her platinum hair was pinned up with a jade hairpin, and her face was calm and cold, keeping others at a distance of a thousand li…
The two women said nothing. They simply joined the Harem's ranks, instantly boosting the group's momentum…
For a moment, the sides clearly separated. On one side stood the Harem women, the Hu Clan, and the Kun Clan. On the other side were the Heavenly Demon Academy and the Giao Clan. Tian Wanbao's group stood in the middle…
"What exactly is going on here?" Tian Wanbao and the others asked in shock.
Why were the Hu Clan and Kun Clan looking at the Heavenly Demon Academy and Giao Clan with eyes full of enmity? Weren't they all demon beasts?
When they sensed the fighting, Tian Wanbao's group had instinctively assumed the Harem had caused trouble and attacked U Origin Continent.
After all, the previous conflicts between the Harem's master and U Origin were well-known.
Who would have thought it was not the case? Otherwise, why would the Hu Clan and Kun Clan also be involved?
Niu Wu Ba was equally shocked. He knew his own situation better than anyone. He had already used his strongest innate technique — the Five-Colored Heaven-Flattening Light — and even revealed his true form as the Five-Colored Imperial Ox. One could say he had gone all out…
Yet he had still been suppressed by Yan Yueqi and Hua Qingzhu without them even showing their true bodies.
The two women hadn't used their full strength against him yet…
Now that the two had arrived, the blood in his body immediately boiled. A suffocating pressure arose, nearly causing him to spit blood.
"What is this feeling? What kind of technique did those two women use earlier? It feels like two legendary species…"
Niu Wu Ba took a deep breath. He realized he had underestimated these two women. In a short time, Yan Yueqi had broken through to mid Tribulation Realm, and Hua Qingzhu had also stabilized her realm solidly.
He even had the thought that even in a one-on-one fight, he might not be a match for either of them.
"Could it be that this Headmaster was wrong…?"
Sensing the oppressive auras from the two women, not only Niu Wu Ba but also Ba Li Jiao Huang and the others turned pale and trembled. Even Kun Mingyue had to secretly circulate her spiritual power to stabilize herself.
Unlike the confusion and doubt in Niu Wu Ba's group, Kun Mingyue understood exactly what was happening.
The Golden Crow and the Phoenix were two noble and majestic Divine Beast species. Their bloodlines exerted immense pressure on demon beasts. This effect was especially pronounced when Yan Yueqi and Hua Qingzhu faced avian or flying demon beasts — those with wings in the sky would likely lose the courage to even face the two women…
"What exactly is going on? Why are you all fighting so fiercely?" Tian Wanbao asked with a grave expression. His peak Tribulation Realm aura faintly spread out, adding weight to his words.
At this moment, the Turtle Shell Old Man had recovered a bit of strength. Panting, he answered:
"It was the Harem that attacked first. The Heavenly Demon Academy and the Giao Clan were only defending ourselves!"
"You still dare to say that?" Ju Mei Ying frowned. This old bastard truly had strong defense. Any other mid-stage Eighth Grade demon beast would have been shaken to death by her earlier strikes.
"You should tell the truth!" Tian Wanbao and the others' faces twitched. If it was really as the old turtle said, then why were the Hu Clan and Kun Clan joining the chaos?
The reason behind it was definitely not simple…
The Master of the Heavenly Secrets Hall's eyes flickered. Although he could use divination to find the cause, calculating a group of Tribulation Realm and Eighth Grade experts would consume an extreme amount of energy and was not easy.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Right at that moment, space beside Tian Wanbao suddenly split open. Three figures wearing golden cloaks and golden masks suddenly stepped out. They respectfully knelt before him and presented three Recording Jade Slips.
"It's the Golden-Robed Guards!"
The Master of the Heavenly Secrets Hall and the two Kao Clan elders immediately recognized their identities.
The Golden-Robed Guards were the largest intelligence organization on Yuelong Star, controlled and nurtured by the Multi-Treasure Pavilion. Although their individual combat strength was not particularly outstanding, every Golden-Robed Guard possessed extraordinary transformation abilities and mastered all kinds of strange and mysterious techniques. Their stealth and concealment skills were not inferior to those of the Seven Killings Sect. It was said that Golden-Robed Guards were deployed in every corner of the continent, gathering intelligence and eavesdropping on even the smallest matters for the Multi-Treasure Pavilion… and they had secret methods to escape when in danger.
This was why the Multi-Treasure Pavilion had such a vast information network. It was rumored that the founder of the Multi-Treasure Pavilion had relied on the Golden-Robed Guards to develop to its current scale.
At this moment, Tian Wanbao received the Recording Jade Slips from the Golden-Robed Guards and opened them one by one, projecting the images for everyone to see. The moment the first two jade slips appeared, the faces of the Heavenly Demon Academy and Giao Clan members lowered in shame.
The images showed them standing at a distance, watching the Blood Emperor Clan attack the Hu Clan without immediately coming to help. Although the audio of their conversation could not be heard, one could still infer a lot from the scenes.
"You all…!" The two Kao Clan elders trembled with rage, unable to speak. They hated nothing more than people who sat back and waited to reap the benefits, taking advantage of the situation like this.
If it had been a normal situation, it would have been one thing. But they were facing a common enemy. Yet these bastards were still scheming against each other.
Tian Wanbao's expression also darkened. He opened the last Recording Jade Slip. The scene inside showed the entire process of the banquet — from the moment conflict arose within the Hu Clan until the fighting broke out. Everything was captured.
One had to admit the terrifying efficiency of the Golden-Robed Guards…
"See? It was the Harem that attacked first. We were only defending ourselves!" The Second Elder of the Heavenly Demon Academy roared.
Inside the Recording Jade Slip, it was indeed Mu Ziyin and Bing Lanxi who could no longer hold back and drew their swords first, slashing at the Turtle Shell Old Man after hearing the old man insult Lan An.
However, that was no longer important…
Because the scene of the Giao Clan and Heavenly Demon Academy scheming against the Hu Clan during the Blood Emperor Clan's invasion had touched the bottom line in Tian Wanbao's group's hearts.
"Niu Wu Ba, what you did… if you had allowed the Blood Emperor Clan to succeed, how could you face your ancestors of the Heavenly Demon Academy in the heavens?" Tian Wanbao sternly rebuked, wishing he could break the pair of horns on the ox's head.
A group of demon beasts had already returned to human form. Niu Wu Ba was extremely cunning. Knowing he could no longer deny it, he simply admitted his mistake and said:
"This time, the Heavenly Demon Academy was indeed wrong. We accept the Alliance's punishment. However, the Harem acted unreasonably and attacked first — they are also guilty!"
"Headmaster Niu is right. The Harem also broke the Alliance's rule against internal conflict. They are guilty as well!" The Turtle Shell Old Man added breathlessly.
The Harem women laughed coldly upon hearing this. They didn't even bother explaining. They were all proud women who only submitted to their husband, Liu Yuqing, Wu San Niang, and a few others. Why would they waste time explaining to these people?
"Guilty my ass! You delayed reinforcements for the Hu Clan according to the agreement. That can be considered colluding with the enemy and betraying the Alliance. As members of the Blood Extermination Alliance Council, the Harem has the right to execute first and report later. Not only are they not guilty — they have merit!" The Kao Clan ancestor laughed coldly. With his status and position on the star, others feared Niu Wu Ba, but he did not.
"You're right. The Harem has merit for aiding the Hu Clan and even more merit for teaching you a lesson!" The Master of the Heavenly Secrets Hall quickly chimed in.
He was currently trying to curry favor with Lan An, so of course he took the opportunity to please the Harem.
The faces of the Heavenly Demon Academy and Giao Clan turned deathly pale. Especially Ba Li Jiao Huang, whose face was ashen as dust. This time, the Giao Clan had lost everything. Although when the Hu Clan and Kun Clan left U Origin, his Giao Clan would become the top force besides the Heavenly Demon Academy, he felt no joy at all.
"Everyone, please disperse. I hope there will be no more internal fighting while we are supposed to be working together against the external enemy!" Tian Wanbao sighed.
Although he knew it was very difficult for a newly formed Alliance to achieve true unity, he had not expected such a large conflict to arise so soon… If not handled carefully, the Alliance could fall apart. At that point, with internal strife and external threats, Yuelong Star would be in danger.
The two Kao Clan elders also sympathized with Tian Wanbao. A faint unease appeared in their eyes… Lately, they had been feeling a strange premonition in their hearts, as if something ominous was about to descend.
"What a pity…"
Hidden in the void, several Four-Heart Blood Envoys sighed with regret. They had thought there would be a good show to watch, but everything had ended like this. This time, the biggest loss was still the Blood Emperor Clan. The Heavenly Demon Academy had only lost some reputation and one demonic core.
"No need to feel regretful. This time we managed to collect a large amount of blood essence from the dead Blood Guards and Blood Generals. It's enough to continue operating the Transcending Star Blood Formation… At that time, we will take back everything we lost!"
Another Blood Envoy spoke ruthlessly… As long as they gained benefits, they did not mind using the blood of their own comrades as materials.
"Yuelong Star… Harem… just wait!"
Leaving behind a drifting voice in the space, the Blood Envoys quietly disappeared…
