"I was only gone for three days on the [Otherworldy Evil Extermination Event], yet look at you all."
"In these mere three days, the God of Twilight, Jiexiyongxi, and the Lord of Annihilation, Xietu, have attacked my Immortal and Demon Empire twice."
"If not for the empire's defense shield, my Immortal and Demon Empire would surely have ceased to exist."
"Therefore, there are only two paths before the Evil Faction and the Glorious Empire."
"One is to compensate me one hundred million exotic crystals, and the other is to be defeated by me and cease to exist in this world forever."
After Xiao Mo finished speaking, the Elf Goddess fell silent, instantly recalling the Lord of Annihilation Xietu's broken promises.
At this moment, Hesyadam, the ruler of the Glorious Empire, was displeased at the prospect of further compensation.
"Didn't we already have an agreement? I was to help you expel evil, so why must I compensate you? This is truly unreasonable."
Xiao Mo glanced at him indifferently, "Do you wish to be defeated by me once more?"
"You don't have to compensate me. My Immortal and Demon Empire's cavalry can simply trample your Glorious Empire."
Hesyadam's face stiffened. He wanted to retort but was no match for Xiao Mo, so he could only close his mouth.
He began to ponder how to minimize his losses.
He now deeply regretted his impulsive actions. Although the Immortal and Demon Empire had developed rapidly and bordered his territory, he should not have attacked rashly without knowing the opponent's true strength. This had led to their current awkward predicament.
Meanwhile, the God of Twilight Jiexiyongxi and the Lord of Annihilation Xietu never believed their withdrawal had already shown Xiao Mo great respect.
Yet, they hadn't expected Xiao Mo to be ungrateful and even seek a fight.
What was worse was that the Elf Goddess was beginning to waver.
The Lord of Annihilation Xietu unleashed his divine power, and all present gods felt a terrifying pressure.
"Xiao Mo, our Evil Faction has already taken a step back. I hope you don't mistake our kindness for weakness and take a step back as well."
"Otherwise, we shall see."
The less powerful gods instinctively recoiled, afraid of being enveloped by the Lord of Annihilation Xietu's aura.
At this moment, two more powerful divine lord presences appeared out of thin air, directly dispelling the Lord of Annihilation Xietu's oppressive aura.
Xian'er opened her red lips slightly, a disdainful smile appearing.
"Lord of Annihilation Xietu, remember, this is our territory, not a place for you to run wild."
"Enough with the nonsense. If you want to fight, then fight."
"You have already offended our great Holy Lord. Your end will be death. Do not struggle any further."
The Lord of Annihilation Xietu glared at Xian'er in anger, but he dared not act rashly for the moment.
This was because Xian'er's strength was on par with his at the peak of the Divine Lord realm, and another unknown peak Divine Lord goddess had appeared.
Even Xiao Mo, who was initially a God King, had skyrocketed to the mid-stage Divine Lord realm like a rocket.
Furthermore, there was the traitorous ruler of the Glorious Empire, Hesyadam.
Although the Elf Goddess was still undecided, the God of Twilight Jiexiyongxi knew that if war broke out, the Elf Goddess would undoubtedly side with Xiao Mo.
Thus, in the current situation, the Evil Faction had only two Divine Lord-level gods.
On the side of the Immortal and Demon Empire, there were five Divine Lord-level gods, three more than their opponents.
If a fight were to break out, even with their six million plus evil gods, the Evil Faction would have to pay a terribly heavy price in the end.
Therefore, the God of Twilight Jiexiyongxi and the Lord of Annihilation Xietu had already considered retreating and no longer wished to continue fighting.
However, Xiao Mo would not give them such an opportunity. He gave the Elf Goddess an ultimatum.
"Your Highness, Elf Goddess, I admire your consideration for the Primal Continent. At the beginning, I fully supported your decision."
"But now, the two main gods of the Evil Faction have gone too far. They intended to harm my people, which I cannot tolerate."
"Therefore, I must fight this battle! Elf Goddess, if you wish to help me, then stay."
"But if you do not help me, then our previous alliance will be nullified."
The Elf Goddess had no reaction when she first heard Xiao Mo's words.
However, upon hearing that Xiao Mo intended to annul their pact, she became anxious.
"Wait! We, the Nature Goddess, have decided to help the Immortal and Demon Empire overcome this difficulty and defeat the Evil Faction!"
Her words fell into the crowd of gods like a drop of cold water into a hot oil pan, causing everyone to erupt.
The gods looked at each other in disbelief, their eyes filled with astonishment.
It was as if they had heard something utterly incredible.
"Heavens, no way! I never imagined things would escalate to this point!"
"It's been hundreds of thousands of years! The Elf Goddess usually only obstructs the outbreak of war, but now, for the sake of a pact with the Immortal and Demon Empire, she has agreed to join the war."
"This is truly shocking!"
"It seems that this Lord of Territory, Xiao Mo, is truly formidable, possessing remarkable capabilities."
"Are you still calling him Xiao Mo? You are merely a mere God-level being."
"Even if you've lived for tens of thousands of years, he is now a Divine Lord. You must address him as His Majesty, the Ruler of the Immortal and Demon Empire."
"Honestly, I find it utterly unbelievable that the Ruler of the Immortal and Demon Empire has developed so smoothly along his path."
"It seems some people are born protagonists, their existence meant to be the center of this world."
"Looking at this situation, a divine war is inevitable."
"There are seven Divine Lord-level gods here. To encounter one or two Divine Lord-level gods is already extremely difficult. Yet today, we see seven all at once."
"If seven Divine Lord-level gods were to fight, the scale of the battle would be terrifying, wouldn't it?"
"Should we leave and seek refuge?"
"Seven gods are going to war? If you want to hide, hide alone. I am definitely going to watch!"
