“To think the primordial sage race is actually willing to live in peace with the human race! However, if the human race doesn’t have the Elder King, I’m afraid that we won’t have a future.”

“We can’t hand over the Elder King. He is the hope of the human race. We can’t abandon him!”

“Hmph, if the human race doesn’t hand over the Elder King, just wait to be exterminated!”

“The ten thousand ancient races are simply too powerful. If we don’t hand over the Elder King, the human race won’t be able to survive!”

“The human race has survived since the primordial era. Our ancestors have gone through countless hardships to get the human race to where we are today. Are we going to move backward instead?”

Everyone was chattering. The humans were arguing within themselves, while the ten thousand ancient races were ridiculing and laughing at the humans.

At the same time, the seven human race experts had different opinions as well.

Supreme Sage Qin Tian snorted, “The human race will never hand over the Elder King.

“That’s right. The Duanmu family also believes that the Elder King is the hope of the human race. We can’t hand him over to the ten thousand ancient races,” Supreme Sage Duanmu said coldly.

However, the Sage of the Dugu family spoke at this moment, “If we continue to protect the Elder King, the survival of the human race will be at stake. Don’t you know what to choose between saving one person and saving the entire race?”

“Hmph, the Elder King is the peak combat power of the human race. How can we hand him over to the ten thousand ancient races?” Supreme Sage Qin Tian retorted.

Sage King Dugu’s eyes narrowed as he argued, “If we choose to protect, what will happen if the primordial sage race declares war on the human race?”

“Then let’s fight! Even if we have to die, the human race will not let them have an easy time!” Supreme Sage Duanmu shouted coldly as his eyes burned with rage. He was not willing to give in.

“You are gambling with the future of the human race! It’s ridiculous to sacrifice an entire race for one person!” Sage King Dugu shouted.

The eyes of the Supreme Sage from the Jiuli Dynasty darkened as he said in a low voice, “We can’t hand over the Elder King.”

“That’s right. We can’t hand over the Elder King. As long as he is around, the human race will still have hope in this era.” The Supreme Sage of the Great Xia Dynasty also spoke.

“Have you ever thought about the future of the human race?” Sage King Dugu asked coldly.

“Old Dugu,” Sage King Cao sneered, “Your ancestor, Dugu Baitian, once slashed through the sky with a single sword. If he knew that his descendant was such a coward and was willing to submit to the ten thousand ancient races, he would probably cross time to come and kill you!”

“You!” Sage King Dugu’s face darkened and his eyes were full of resentment.

“Haha, the human race is really laughable. To think you are quarreling among yourselves. Unfortunately, we don’t have time to wait for you to finish quarreling. Tell us, are you going to hand over the Elder King or not?” The Supreme Sage of the giant race shouted coldly as a terrifying Sagely might burst forth/ His eyes were filled with battle intent. No matter what decision the human race made, he would find the human Elder King to take revenge for his broken arm.

Supreme Sage Qin Tian’s reply was decisive, “The human race will not agree to any conditions that would humiliate the human race. We can live in peace with the ten thousand ancient races, but we will not give up the entire Southern Desolate Land, nor will we let humans become your food. And, we will definitely not hand over the human race’s Elder King!”

“Hmph, do you think you have any other choice?” The Supreme Sage from the skyfall race shouted as his Sagely might gushed out. His eyes were filled with killing intent as he took out his Sage King supreme-grade weapon, ready to activate it at any moment.

“Do you really think the human race is afraid of you?” Supreme Sage Duanmu roared in anger as he too unleashed his Sagely might and faced off against the Skyfall Supreme Sage. There was not a single trace of fear in his eyes.

“Senior of the primordial sage race, since the human race is so stubborn, there’s no need for us to be so polite with them. Let’s kill the eight of them first, then exterminate the entire human race!” Supreme Sage Peng Kong cupped his hands at the elder from the primordial sage race, “As long as the primordial sage race agrees, I will attack without hesitation.”

“Humans, is this your final decision?” The primordial sage race’s elder asked.

Supreme Sage Qin Tian’s face was fearless as he replied, “This is the human race’s response. If you want to fight, then we will fight!”

As he finished speaking, the seven top expert human cultivators, including Sage King Dugu, exploded with power. They stood off against the domineering Supreme Sage Peng Kong and the others. As long as the primordial sage race’s elder declared war, both sides would immediately start a war between the human race and the ten thousand ancient races.

Qin Chen looked at the seven people who were fighting for him. Even though he had come from another world, he was touched and felt a lump in his throat. However, if the human race were to go to war with the ten thousand ancient races now, even with the extreme emperor weapons, the chances of victory would not exceed 30%. How could he be at ease if the human race was wiped out because of him?

He bowed to the seven of them and said in a deep voice, “Seniors, Sage King Dugu is right. It’s not a good deal to sacrifice an entire race for one person. Since they want my life, let them come and take it. No one can take my life!”

The primordial sage race’s elder did not want to fall out with the human race either. He said, “As long as the human race hands over the Elder King, the primordial sage race promises to coexist peacefully with the human race. We will also restrain the ten thousand ancient races and will never treat the human race as food or invade the human race’s territory.”

Hearing this, the expressions of the Supreme Sages from the giant race and the skyfall race both changed. However, due to the power of the primordial sage race, they could only silently make concessions.

Supreme Sage Dugu said to the other six, “Everyone, the survival of the human race is our top priority. We must sacrifice the Elder King!”

“No! The Elder King is the hope of the human race. We can’t give him up. If they want to fight, we’ll accompany them to the end,” Supreme Sage Duanmu roared and took out his extreme Emperor weapon, ready to fight the ten thousand ancient races.

When Qin Chen saw this, he looked at Supreme Sage Qin Tian with a determined look and said in a deep voice, “Senior, my life isn’t that easy to take. Please help me take care of the Taiyi Holy Land.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Chen activated the Desolate Divine Halberd and broke the protective shield of Haihuang City. He then used the Ancient Void Technique to teleport into the distance.

“You want to escape? No way!” Supreme Sage Peng Kong and the giant race’s Supreme Sage burst forth at the same time and chased after him.

The primordial sage race’s elder was also recovering his power. He was simply too terrifying. The entire Haihuang City was shaking. The sky was dyed gold by Sage runes. A huge golden hand reached out from the starry sky toward Qin Chen. The terrifying pressure made him unable to hide.

At this moment, the Son of Heaven’s Sword revived as well, and the terrifying emperor’s might suppressed everyone. The sword slashed into the sky, and the golden hand was shattered. The aftermath spread for millions of miles, and the spectating cultivators were affected. They all coughed up blood, clearly injured.

“Humans, are you declaring war on the primordial sage race?” The elder from the primordial sage race shouted.

However, before Supreme Sage Qin Tian could speak, the crazy old man who had been following Qin Chen all this while suddenly appeared. He took a big step and arrived in the sky above Haihuang City. He looked at the Son of Heaven’s Sword with tears streaming down his face and mumbled, “Dead! The great emperor is dead too! They’re all dead!

Everyone was shocked by his words!

“Where did this crazy old man come from?” The Skyfall Supreme Sage roared coldly as he unleashed his Sagely might toward the crazy old man. However, the crazy old man merely turned his head to look before a chain of the great path shot out from the void, piercing through the Skyfall Supreme Sage’s head and exploding.

The Skyfall Supreme Sage was dead!
