Emperor’s Domination

shot said.

This power had always been ambitious and had a strong prejudice against the People.
Its members considered themselves to be the rulers of the six continents.

The Pact of Blessed and political circumstances after Emperor War restrained their ambition.
However, with peace came recuperation and changes. 

All the alliances have been able to grow stronger without losses from war.
Moreover, prosperity and harmony between the two factions also accelerated growth.

None expected the recent changes in leadership.
Although All-things Dao Lord was still in charge of Dao Alliance, Azure School was making a strong return.

“Is the same thing going to happen to Dao Alliance, All-things Dao Lord being forced to abdicate?” A neutral dragon lord worried for the future.

Some big shots who had lived through the wars had no desire of returning to a similar terrible period.
Moreover, they would be forced to pick a side, not to mention being treated as cannon-fodders.

“I think we are being too pessimistic.
Remember, we have enjoyed peace together for so long, the grudges aren’t as strong as they used to be.
Illumination Conqueror won’t have the same pull.” A powerful ancient ancestor commented.

Meanwhile, Skysword Dao Lord revealed another side of him, looking furious and ready to kill Heaven Hammer and the others.

“You want a fight?” He looked around and uttered coldly: “Illumination, Supreme, Swordsea, come here then! Let’s fight to the death!”

No one answered him despite the direct challenge.
They didn’t wish to be the ones breaking the pact directly.

This maneuver was an attempt to test the water.
Furthermore, they understood the seriousness of war and didn’t want to be the ones starting it without an actual justification.
As apex cultivators, they still cared about their reputation.

The support for war must increase even more.
The top emperors and conquerors must unanimously express their desire of breaking the pact before taking the next step.

Being the one to start the war meant living in infamy.
This subdued their desire of taking out the eternal enemies.

Of course, they also understood that following the pact was just an empty formality right now.
There was nothing enforcing its rules.

“Fellow Daoist Skysword, we truly appreciate your sincerity, the same for Eight Desolaces Dao.” Immortal Emperor Guan Feng laughed and said: “It is alright though, we shall entertain our uninvited guests.
I do find it strange to see Azure School acting as if they are in charge.”
