If they wanted to enter the other world and had such strong feelings for this one, they should have been like the nature goddess, always guarding their forbidden land and reclaiming their faith at all costs.
But after the other world was occupied by the demon race, these people meekly retreated to the Primeval Continent like cowards, not daring to utter a peep.
Even after the demon race was driven back to their own territory, they didn't dare to re-enter the other world, fearing the presence of any remaining demon forces. Instead, it was resealed.
In truth, they had indeed considered reopening the other world in recent years. They believed that after so many years, all the demon race members would have died, giving them the courage to consider it.
The other world held many treasures of the evil factions, countless relics, and invaluable items such as divine skeletons, artifacts, and remains. If they could enter the other world again, they could claim these treasures as their own and expand the influence of their evil faction.
However, due to the seal, they were unable to open it. Now, seeing the castle lords entering so openly, they were consumed by jealousy.
Unbeknownst to them, the other world was already being completely eroded by demonic energy, on the verge of becoming a second territory for the demon race. If they knew this, they wouldn't even dare to breathe a word, let alone go in.
Jealousy contorted the face of Lord of Annihilation, Xietu. He said grimly, "I've just received news that the Immortal-Demon Kingdom has completely entered the other world. The kingdom is deserted, leaving only an empty shell."
"Those people have entered our former land of faith and are plundering our former treasures. We must not let them have it all. Let us raid their castles!"
"Their kingdom should have many treasures inside, like God Crystals."
At this moment, Lord of Annihilation Xietu was not fully informed; he had not yet learned that the Immortal-Demon Kingdom had been upgraded to the Immortal-Demon Empire.
Lord of the End, Jessie Qiongxi, quickly reminded him, "Your Excellency Lord of Annihilation, it's more than that. The Immortal-Demon Kingdom has now become the Immortal-Demon Empire. Their treasures should be even more abundant."
Lord of Annihilation Xietu was initially surprised that Xiao Mo had upgraded to the Immortal-Demon Empire in such a short time. But in the next instant, he thought that if the kingdom was upgraded, their treasures would surely increase.
For a moment, his eyes revealed boundless greed. He said impatiently, "Quickly, let us gather all the evil gods of the evil faction and have a grand celebration at the Immortal-Demon Empire!"
Lord of the End, Jessie Qiongxi, was even more eager because he was still worried about his younger brother, Lord of Annihilation, Rairner. He feared that his brother would be tortured and wanted to rescue him. He could not wait for the seven-day pact!
So what if he broke the agreement? What could anyone do to him? The holy war was imminent. Would those hypocritical false gods kill him for it? Humph, he was a Lord. If he were killed, the forces of the entire Primeval Continent would be weakened.
In an instant, all the evil gods of the evil faction were assembled.
At the same time, a thousand miles away in the Glorious Empire, within a tall and magnificent holy palace, a monarch clad in glorious armor sat on the throne. This person was the ruler of the Glorious Empire, Hesyadame.
He was even more proactive than Lord of the End, Jessie Qiongxi, and Lord of Annihilation, Xietu. Upon receiving news that the castle lords would enter the "Otherworld Demon Extermination Event" at 12 o'clock today, the ruler of the Glorious Empire, Hesyadame, had already made preparations, waiting for Xiao Mo to lead all the troops of the Immortal-Demon Empire away.
At that time, he would lead the army of the Glorious Empire to march into the Immortal-Demon Empire and crush everything within it with his cavalry!
"Hmph, a mere empire dares to oppose my ancient empire, which has existed for tens of thousands of years. They are truly ungrateful!"
The courtiers below said fawningly, "My great ruler, the Immortal-Demon Empire is truly ungrateful. They dared to establish an empire without informing you. This is clearly an act of defiance!"
"Exactly! They have extended their territory so close to us, provoking the dignity of our tolerant empire. Killing them is only right!"
"But speaking of which, the ruler of the Immortal-Demon Empire is truly arrogant. How dare he take away all his powerful troops, leaving behind only ordinary people without any rank!"
"Such arrogance is a sign of contempt towards us. Our Glorious Empire must teach them a lesson."
With the courtiers' flattery, the expression on the face of the ruler of the Glorious Empire, Hesyadame, became increasingly smug. He waved his hand and said, "Since they are so ungrateful, we will teach them a lesson and return their empire to its original state!"
In an instant, the imperial army was also arrayed and swaggered towards the Immortal-Demon Empire. However, before they reached the Immortal-Demon Empire, they encountered the evil faction.
Both sides recognized each other's identities. Immediately, their attitudes became arrogant and overbearing because not only were these two forces opposed to the Immortal-Demon Empire, but they also despised each other. One believed in evil, and the other in glory. They were on opposite paths, and in addition, they frequently clashed due to other matters. Over time, the two factions had developed a deep-seated hatred.
Initially, the ruler of the Glorious Empire, Hesyadame, and Lord of Annihilation, Xietu, felt they had their own matters to attend to and did not intend to confront each other at this time. They decided to avoid conflict and leave the area, planning to fight another day.
But after both forces had traveled a certain distance, they suddenly realized that the other party was on the same route as them. Instantly, they became vigilant. Combined with the rumors of their past encounters, an incredible thought flashed through the minds of the leaders of both factions.
"Damn it, is this idiot who believes in light also planning to attack the Immortal-Demon Empire?"
"No way, no way. Could the destination of the disgusting evil faction be the same as mine?"
