In a secluded forest in Demonia Mountain, Monkey Archon, Lion Archon, Leopard King, and Thousand-Faced Demon Archon gathered together.
The expressions of the four individuals were far from pleasant as their venture into the Celestial Battlefield this time had yielded minimal gains.
This was especially true for Lion Archon, who, after much difficulty, had discovered the whereabouts of the Divine Bow yet had been unable to retrieve it.
Thousand-Faced Demon Archon seemed to understand Lion Archon’s feelings. He stepped forward, patting Lion Archon’s shoulder and saying, “Lion Archon, the Divine Bow is not meant for us. Even if we obtain it, neither of us can use it. The Divine Bow has been stored in your territory for so many years. You couldn’t even remove it from the mountain peak, let alone draw it, so it’s better to give up on that thought. Although our gains were not substantial on this trip to the Celestial Battlefield, we still managed to gain something. Let’s each return to our homes and focus on our cultivation. The strength of the beast race is currently too weak.”
Upon hearing Thousand-Faced Demon Archon’s words, Lion Archon seemed to overcome his frustration as well. After all, even if the Divine Bow was given to him, he would have a hard time lifting it!
This time, Fox Queen really lucked out. If things continue this way, she might just become the leader among us,” Leopard King said with a hint of envy.
“It doesn’t matter who the leader is. We, the beast race, must stand united. Otherwise, it will be even more difficult for us to establish a foothold in this realm. Let’s all head back to our respective homes. I’ll be leaving as well.”
After Thousand-Faced Demon Archon finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Just as Thousand-Faced Demon Archon turned around, dozens of rays of light arrived in an instant from all around.
Immediately following, dozens of figures surrounded the quartet.
Upon seeing the situation, all four individuals instantly became alert!
Upon recognizing the newcomers, Thousand- Faced Demon Archon stepped forward and said, “So, it’s the people from the Five Great Sects. May I ask what brings you here?”
The members of the Five Great Sects were all glaring intently at the quartet, their eyes filled with murderous intent.
Lauden stepped forward and declared, “Thousand-Faced Demon Archon, the four of you need to come with us.”
“Mr. Delacroix, may I ask why? We don’t seem to have much interaction with your Five Great Sects. If there’s something on your mind, I suggest you speak directly,” Thousand-Faced Demon Archon said.
“Thousand-Faced Demon Archon, quit your acting. If we tell you to come with us, then you should just follow. Why all the unnecessary chatter?” Heinrik roared with anger on his face.
Thousand-Faced Demon Archon’s countenance turned cold in an instant. Although their cultivation level was not as high as the leaders of the Five Great Sects, in terms of status and position, the three kings and four archons were on par with the human sect leaders.
The lack of respect from Heinrik caused Thousand-Faced Demon Archon’s face to darken considerably. However, Thousand-Faced Demon Archon did not retort. After all, the other party was not only numerous but also stronger. A wise man knew better than to cause trouble when he was at a disadvantage.
Lion Archon glared discontentedly at Heinrik as he snapped, “Heinrik Darkmore, what are you saying? Why should we follow you? Just because you have more people, you think you can bully us?”
Lion Archon’s territory was around Demonia Mountain, and he was quite familiar with the Five Great Sects, so he was not afraid of them at all!
Lion Archon knew that the people of the Five Great Sects, being humans, would not recklessly kill others, especially in the vicinity of Demonia Mountain!
Here in the southern region, regardless of whether they were from the human, demon, or beast races, they all maintained a sense of courtesy, and large-scale conflicts rarely occurred.
Suddenly, the people from the Five Great Sects surrounded them. However, Lion Archon was not afraid. He did not believe these people would dare to lay a hand on him.
If the Five Great Sects were to cause a large- scale conflict between the beast race and the humans, they wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences!
“Lion Archon, if I tell you to follow, you follow. Spare me your nonsense. If you dare to utter another word today, believe it or not, I’ll kill you!”
The aura around Heinrik surged dramatically, instantly bearing down on Lion Archon.
The leaders of the Five Great Sects were more powerful than Lion Archon and his group.
Moreover, they had greater numbers. If a fight were to break out, Lion Archon and his three companions would stand no chance at all!
