Chapter 3956 - Two Paths, Pick One!
You You was quite the petite and talented girl, yet Tianming had managed to completely dominate her in almost no time at all. Xian Xian's middlekin-astron roots wrapped around her six times in and out, leaving only her eyes exposed. The roots had transformed to contain suckers all over, which could sap away at cosmoforce, causing You You to instantly weaken!
"How dare you?!" She had thought that Tianming was just going to make a show out of it and didn't think that he would actually be able to subdue her. She wasn't even sure if she could break out of the roots at this point.
"Don't move!" he said to her and Eighth within his lifebound space. The princess's ghoul was incredibly enticing to the gray egg, which was shaking nonstop within the lifebound space and almost manifested as an eye on Tianming's chest. Fortunately, they had had enough time to get to know each other, and Eighth appeared to be quite obedient when Tianming wanted him to be. The gray coffin remained completely shut as if it had been asked to hold that position.
To the devas, Tianming had defeated their princess far too quickly. Many of them still hadn't reacted.
"Princess You You!" Zhan Xiao and the other devas glared daggers at Tianming. First, they had been bullied by their supposed allies, only to encounter the traitor and those from the Primordial Sands. They truly bemoaned their luck. Seeing their princess captured so quickly made them regret underestimating Tianming's strength even more.
"Stop!" Zhan Xiao had just been sent smashing into the ground by Jiang Lincheng. He rapidly got back up and ordered all the devas to cease combat.
"Brother Xiao, what do we do?" The devas' rage had reached its peak. There was still so much to vent!
"Jiang Lincheng!" Zhan Xiao recognized the leader of the kunlan primalwingers. He looked to Tianming but continued to address the primalwinger. "Princess You You is the beloved daughter of the Ninefold Wargod. You should know the consequences if anything bad happens to her. All of us have tracing rings, so every word and action of yours is being observed by the Eightpart Pantheons! We have no grudge with you, and there's no treasures around to be fought over. Let us both take a step back. Surely, there's no need to continue a pointless fight, right?"
The fact that Zhan Xiao said all that meant that he was about to cave. He had no choice, since the person he respected the most had fallen into Tianming's hands. Losing her spelled grave consequences for the Ninefold Hellstar.
"Who said that this fight is pointless? Let's hear what Brother Lin Feng has to say!" Jiang Lincheng said.
Tianming was still shrouded in purple mist. He kept the girl tightly bound and went straight to the point. "So far, the Skyfiendling and Yushen An still haven't managed to claim the ninelives fruits. I wish to work with you to take them out! Let's make the shameless ashuras and their dogs of the Sin Pantheon pay the price!"
The devas furrowed their brows at the proposition before looking to Zhan Xiao to wait for their decision. Everything about this felt a little funny to them. Zhan Xiao looked deeply at Tianming and said, "You're someone from the Upper Star Ruin. Don't you know that the Eightpart Pantheons are united in our goals? If we help the outsiders on your side attack another faction on our side, we'd be going against our basic tenets. This is impossible, so don't dream about it."
