Chapter 1579: Human Emperor Palace Ancestor
Upon seeing the identities of the Yongye crowd, the Human Emperor Palace's Emperor Sovereign experts grew even more furious, their teeth itching.
The Human Emperor Palace and Yongye usually kept to themselves, never having offended Yongye before.
Moreover, the two sides occasionally cooperated.
There was no grudge, yet Yongye now intervened directly in the affairs of the Human Emperor Palace and Haotu Shijie without even a greeting.
Just what benefits has Haotu Shijie given Yongye, and do they have that kind of strength?
In the eyes of the Human Emperor Palace's Emperor Sovereigns, for Yongye to act, Haotu Shijie must have suffered huge losses.
After all, they're a bunch that cares only for money, not people—yet this tiny Haotu Shijie is really that rich?
Can they even meet Yongye's conditions?
But now is not the time to think about that; Yongye's Emperor Sovereign assassins have basically come out in full force.
On the battlefield, those Yongye Emperor Sovereign assassins are like tigers among sheep, unstoppable.
Seeing this, the Human Emperor Palace's leading Emperor Sovereign expert said to the Vermilion Bird Hall Master and Azure Dragon Hall Master before him.
"However much Haotu Shijie has given Yongye, I, the Human Emperor Palace, will give the same."
In a war of money, the Human Emperor Palace fears no one; relying on its status as the orthodox Human Race, it has accumulated vast wealth over the years.
Moreover, he believes that as long as the money is in place, Yongye's lot have no reason to refuse.
After all, compared to making an enemy of the Human Emperor Palace, taking the money and leaving is obviously much easier.
You can get the same money without doing anything—what reason is there to refuse?
However, what he didn't expect was that, upon hearing this, the Vermilion Bird Hall Master almost without hesitation flatly refused.
"You, Human Emperor Palace, can't afford it."
Huh??? Upon hearing that, the Human Emperor Palace's Emperor Sovereign expert was somewhat dumbfounded—can't afford it?
Haotu Shijie can afford the price, yet we, the Human Emperor Palace, can't?
This is ridiculous—what sort of thing is Haotu Shijie?
This time Yongye is like a turtle swallowing a weight—determined to be enemies with the Human Emperor Palace?
In his view, the Vermilion Bird Hall Master's such direct refusal means there's no intention to negotiate.
Upon this, the Human Emperor Palace's Emperor Sovereign expert gritted his teeth in anger.
But before he could think further, the Azure Dragon Hall Master's attack arrived as expected.
Facing the combined assault of the two Yongye Hall Masters, his pressure was naturally imaginable.
All are Emperor Sovereign Perfection cultivators; taking on two at once surely offers no chance of victory.
Moreover, another Emperor Sovereign Perfection of the Human Emperor Palace was likewise singled out for special attention by the White Tiger Hall Master and Black Tortoise Hall Master.
Under their combined assault, danger lurked everywhere, and he had already acquired several new wounds.
As the battle situation grew ever more difficult, moreover, Yongye's side showed no sign of relenting.
Even now we don't know what conditions Haotu Shijie has agreed to with them; anyway, the Human Emperor Palace has offered the same terms, and all we've met with is contempt from Yongye's assassins.
What a joke—Haotu Shijie has Ye Zhangqing; what does the Human Emperor Palace have?
How can they offer the same terms?
Seeing that the casualties among the Human Emperor Palace's experts who came out this time are mounting ever more severely, the leading Human Emperor Palace Emperor Sovereign could no longer bear it.
If this continues, they'll likely suffer heavy casualties before even reaching Haotu Shijie.
Moreover, it's not just the subordinates; even he, under the combined assault of the Vermilion Bird Hall Master and Azure Dragon Hall Master, can barely hold on.
Indeed, fighting two against one makes victory difficult.
Seeing the Azure Dragon Hall Master again join forces with the Vermilion Bird Hall Master to attack, he exerted all his strength to block their strikes.
His right hand instantly exploded into a mist of blood, though it recovered in the next second—Limb Regeneration.
However, such recovery is not endless; it always has a limit.
If this continues, even he himself will be in danger.
Gazing gloomily at the Azure Dragon Hall Master and Vermilion Bird Hall Master before him, this Human Emperor Palace Emperor Sovereign said coldly.
"The Human Emperor Palace and Yongye have never had any grudge—do you really intend to go this far, Yongye?"
"Hah, what's called having no grudge? You might as well say the Human Emperor Palace only knows how to bully its own."
To this, the Azure Dragon Hall Master sneered.
That statement is not wrong; the Human Emperor Palace's attitudes toward the Human Race and other races differ enormously.
When facing powers of equal standing, the Human Emperor Palace basically endures if it can, yields if it can.
But when facing Human Race forces, it launches heavy-handed strikes.
A slight lack of respect could lead to the extinction of one's mortal lamp, the annihilation of sect and clan.
Thus, the Human Emperor Palace indeed has no grudge with several top powers of Zhu Tian Wan Jie.
But precisely because of that, the Human Emperor Palace's conduct makes many people dislike it.
And yet it still claims to be the orthodox Human Race—quite a joke.
Hearing the Azure Dragon Hall Master's words, the Human Emperor Palace's Emperor Sovereign expert's face grew ever uglier.
He naturally knows these words are factual, yet hearing them spoken to his face, his inner anger still rises uncontrollably.
Does the Human Emperor Palace not care about face?
"Enough—are you sure, Yongye, you want to intervene in this matter, even at the cost of becoming enemies with the Human Emperor Palace?"
He growled low, his eyes full of icy coldness as he stared at the Vermilion Bird Hall Master and Azure Dragon Hall Master, asking coldly.
Upon hearing this, the two directly gave their answer with actions.
Joining forces again, they attacked the Human Emperor Palace's Emperor Sovereign, striking without mercy.
Increasingly disadvantaged and forced into a corner, this Human Emperor Palace Emperor Sovereign Perfection expert drew an ancient simple jade tablet from his bosom.
Immediately his eyes turned icy as he crushed it in one grip.
"This is all because you forced me."
Inside the cabin, the moment the Human Emperor Palace Emperor Sovereign expert took out his token, the Eternal Night Old Ancestor let out a soft sound of surprise.
"You're still carrying this kind of treasure."
Although the Eternal Night Old Ancestor never made a move from start to finish, his divine sense tightly shrouded the entire battlefield.
Every single movement on the battlefield could not escape his eyes.
So, when that Human Emperor Palace Emperor Sovereign expert just brought out that jade tablet, he sensed it immediately.
This jade tablet looks ordinary, but it is actually the Human Emperor Palace Old Ancestor's jade tablet, an Ancestral Realm Jade Tablet.
It can summon a Divine Sense Avatar of the Human Emperor Palace Old Ancestor.
I never expected that old coot from the Human Emperor Palace to have produced such a jade tablet.
As soon as the Eternal Night Old Ancestor's words fell, on the battlefield a terrifying aura far surpassing the Emperor Sovereign Realm level shot up into the sky.
Before the Vermilion Bird Hall Master and the Azure Dragon Hall Master, a phantom figure quickly condensed into form.
The figure wore a golden robe, appearing splendid and dignified; his face was unclear, shrouded by a mysterious power.
The terrifying aura's appearance caused the fighting on the battlefield to stop.
Seeing their own Old Ancestor's Soul Spirit Avatar summoned, the Human Emperor Palace side all breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially those Emperor Sovereign experts, who had been fighting miserably before, many of them wounded.
Now that the Old Ancestor's Soul Spirit Avatar is present, those Eternal Night Assassins won't be able to stir up any trouble.
