Chapter 1459: Chapter 1406 – Chapter 1407 Alliance of Offense and Defense, Must Save_2 Chapter 1459: Chapter 1406 – Chapter 1407 Alliance of Offense and Defense, Must Save_2 After all, such powerful beings who had managed to progress in their cultivation up to this day had endured untold hardships, and no one wanted to die easily, letting everything turn into nothing, especially when they saw even greater hope ahead.
Perhaps at the beginning, these mighty beings had instinctively resisted the outsiders from the Divine Land World, feeling that their arrival was an invasion of their world.
Even though Heavenly Court had clearly expressed their stance that, even with the integration of this world, Heavenly Court would embrace this world’s beings with magnanimity and treat everyone equally,
many powerful beings who had already developed a sense of repulsion naturally resisted everything from the Divine Land World, filled with distrust, unwilling to listen, unwilling to believe.
However, Time changed everything. Initially, they held feelings of repulsion and discontent, but as time passed, they realized that the strong beings from the Divine Land World, upon their arrival, did not actually behave recklessly as they had feared. This undoubtedly gradually increased their trust, and their attitude also changed accordingly.
Of course, even though they changed their attitude towards the Divine Land World, believing that they could join them at the last moment, it did not mean that they and the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder could coexist.
It’s still the same saying, heretics are more hateful than heretics. In the eyes of these powerful beings, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder were betrayers, and their existence prevented their forces from uniting thoroughly, causing the division of both parties’ strengths, reducing their effectiveness to the maximum and preventing them from gaining the greatest benefits.
Imagine, if they had not split and had united completely, they would have more confidence when facing the strong beings of the Divine Land World. Perhaps, they could have secured more benefits, or even had the chance to drive the opponents away.
Of course, this was the perspective of the Ancient Sun Emperor’s side. If it were the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder’s viewpoint, they would almost have a different argument. They would think that the Ancient Sun Emperor’s side was unreasonable and did not understand compromise or the importance of timing.
They thought that since there was such a large gap between both sides, they should have maintained a flexible attitude from the beginning, not be so rigid, allowing everything to be negotiated to gain more benefits.
The understanding between both sides had diverged from the start, holding different views, unable to persuade each other, eventually leading inevitably to physical conflicts, and with continuous battles, animosity deepened, almost without any possibility of easing.
It could be said that now both parties could potentially cooperate with the Divine Land World, but for them to cooperate again and put their past grievances behind, that was somewhat difficult.
For both sides, since they had already clashed, it was destined that a victor must emerge. Only by establishing a victor could they ensure that there would be no second opinion or opposition in the subsequent teaming.
Thus, when the Ancient Sun Emperor was attacked, the Great Ancient Emperors from his side turned immediately to support him, not daring to delay in the slightest. After all, their current strength could not afford losses, and if the Ancient Sun Emperor was suppressed, that would mean they completely lost their advantageous position, losing the initiative, and even the future leadership.
This was unacceptable for these Great Ancient Emperors, so even temporarily giving up the tempting Emperor Monarch token was a sacrifice they were willing to make.
But, having such decisive decision-making, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder’s side was equally impressive, even more decisive–after all, this was also a rare opportunity for them.
Consider that if the previous struggles between both sides were evenly matched, awaiting the suppression of the Great Yin Emperor meant letting the balance of victory begin to shift towards the Ancient Sun Emperor’s side, which was extremely unfavorable for the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder.
The Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder had also considered a sudden strike against the Sun Divine Palace. Not to completely suppress the Ancient Sun Emperor, but at least to disrupt the opponent’s Refining of Laws, buying more opportunities for themselves.
However, not to mention how tightly guarded the Sun Divine Palace was, these Great Ancient Emperors would not give them much of an opportunity, as they were thoroughly defending against them.
Even though the emergence of the Emperor Monarch’s decree had drawn many Great Ancient Emperors to compete, the Ancient Sun Emperor’s faction had also noticed the movements of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, and only then had they followed suit.
Once the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder gave up this opportunity and shifted their focus onto the Ancient Sun Emperor, the rest of the Great Ancient Emperors would definitely not leave so easily, and would inevitably wait.
“Stop them, do not give them a chance to receive aid!” the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder bellowed coldly, striking fiercely without mercy.
He had already speculated that this Emperor Monarch’s decree was an abnormal scheme, manipulated by the Fate Controller Star Lords and even the Heavenly Court, so he had always been on guard.
Now, as expected, conflict erupted in the Sun Divine Palace, with someone ambushing the Ancient Sun Emperor. Although it surprised and confused him that the Heavenly Court had only sent a few Star Lords and no True Immortals,
in this situation, he could no longer afford to consider much, since according to this request, the Heavenly Court’s intervention with the Ancient Sun Emperor was a fait accompli. If successful, it would inevitably be extremely beneficial for them.
Hence, he naturally could not allow the other side a chance to turn the tide, needing to block those Great Ancient Emperors to buy enough time and create an ideal environment.
He thought to himself that since these Star Lords of the Heavenly Court dared to take action, it proved that they were confident, perhaps possessing some unknown trump cards. Therefore, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder could only hope they would not disappoint him.
Do one’s humanly best, and let the Heavenly Mandate be, for even if it were to fail, the situation could not get worse for him.
Indeed, if in a darker vein of thought, there once might have been a chance for the Ancient Sun Emperor and the Divine Land World’s Heavenly Court to reconcile. If the Star Lords who acted this time were all vanquished, it would certainly enrage the powerful beings of Divine Land, and True Immortals would descend.
Certainly, even though there were factions and disputes within the Divine Land World, under Pei Xuanjing’s leadership, they maintained a united stance on common interests when facing external factors.
Regardless of what the Fate Controller Star Lords planned, at this moment they represented the Divine Land World, the dignity of the Heavenly Court. Unless the numerous True Immortals of the Divine Land World also wanted to lose face and disrupt the overall situation, in this case, they would also be compelled to intervene.
The plans of the Fate Controller, as the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder had guessed, indeed calculated everything. The strong beings of the Divine Land World took action.
Gathered here were not only the powerful beings from their native world but also many Star Lords of the Divine Land World’s Heavenly Court, attracted by the Longevity Taoist Monarch’s decree, and even a few True Immortals had arrived here.
Perhaps the Great Ancient Emperors of their native world might only perceive the power of the Ancient Sun Emperor and couldn’t identify the identities of the intervening Star Lords clearly.
However, in the eyes of those Star Lords and True Immortals, the soaring Power of the Stars, the six stars of the Southern Dipper Star Palace, and the faintly twinkling Five Elements stars, undoubtedly let them know immediately who had acted.
Among them were also some clever individuals who connected these scattered clues at once, guessing the whole situation roughly and understanding what the Fate Controller Star Lords intended to do.
Internally cursing these people as insane and feeling mad about their actions, they pondered a deeper layer: whether a True Immortal’s hand was behind all this.
