Chapter 2551: Isolation of Heaven and Earth
Others are fanning this conflict too?
The Lord of Slaughter and Salamay exchanged looks. It sounds like others are playing on this chessboard as well, and master appears to be wary of them. To think there are other beings as terrifying as master! This world is a scary place!
Salamay’s eyes darted around in contemplation. She approached the black-robed man and coyly asked, “Master, master! Who are the others hiding in the shadows?”
After saying those words, she couldn’t help but shiver. This was her first time speaking like that. She had never thought that a day would come when she would have to resort to a honey trap.
The black-robed man harrumphed as he shoved her aside. “That’s not a question you should be asking. Also, don’t even think about seducing me. Would you be interested in your pets?”
He was already being considerate by not calling them ‘livestock’.
Salamay’s face reddened in anger. She had never been humiliated in such a manner before. However, she quickly reined herself in and hid her displeasure under a beaming smile. “Yes, master is right to reprimand me. I will reflect on my mistake.”
The black-robed man turned his attention back to Zhong Mountain. Over there, more and more shaman powerhouses were abandoning their posts in the Celestial Court. The situation was spiraling out of control.
Even the Celestial Emperor couldn’t help but frown. “Calm down; it’s meaningless to act in a fit of rage. We agreed that the fiends and the shamans would govern their own jurisdictions. If you abruptly abandon your posts, the world will be plunged into chaos.”
Gonggong sneered, “The agreement was for the Fiend races to govern heaven while the Shaman races governed the earth, but you overstepped your boundary to kill our people on our turf. Since our agreement means nothing to you, there’s no reason for us to continue wearing these shackles.”
The other shamans cheered in agreement. Shamans had unbridled personalities, and the grudge between both races was simply too deep. At this point, they weren’t rioting just over Gu’s execution anymore.
