It was truly unimaginable.
Some True Immortals also secretly grumbled in their hearts, envious of how well their human counterparts’ predecessors had done, leaving behind so many gifts for future generations, unlike their Demon Race ancestors who had left nothing behind.
“Enough, stop complaining,” the Lion Emperor snapped as he looked at the numerous Demon Kings causing a ruckus.
His gaze swept coldly over the Demon Kings as he said sternly, “Things have come to this, there is no need for complaints. We simply underestimated the human race. However, if the humans think they can rise smoothly, that’s a pipe dream. I will absolutely not allow it. This time, you will all follow me in taking action, and we must not allow the human race’s plans to succeed.”
As the sovereign of the Demon Race, receiving the worship and reverence of countless demons, he naturally bore the responsibility of protecting the Demon Race. Moreover, the title of Demon Emperor was tied to the existence of the Demon Race itself—if there were no Demon Race, there would be no Demon Emperor.
They had originally thought that with the appearance of True Immortals, the Demon Race could exist forever. However, they had not anticipated such a turn of events, where the emergence of these Spirit Realm Cave Skies undeniably disrupted the balance between the human and Demon Races.
This was something the Lion Emperor could not tolerate. He had to destroy it all; otherwise, the emergence of more True Immortals from the human race in the future would greatly reduce the living space for the Demon Race, and could even lead to their extinction.
The Demon Race was secretly preparing, waiting for an opportunity to act. Although it had yet to be detected, the situation between the two races was such that no evidence was needed for the strong ones among the humans to guess these matters.
Because the Demon Race dreaded the strength of the humans and the breaking of the balance, the humans harbored the same concerns. If the Demon Race found themselves in a similar opportunity, the humans would also go to any lengths to destroy it.
Thus, from the beginning, many True Immortals among the humans were secretly on guard. After all, no matter what internal struggles occurred within the human race, it was still a case of internal disputes within the family.
But if the Demon Race made a move, it would either mean smashing the pot or even taking away the entire pot. This was a matter of self-interest, and many True Immortals of the human race could also temporarily set aside internal grievances.
The conflict between races was a matter of life and death. Because they could discern the importance of such matters, the human race had persevered across countless years and continued to resist the Demon Race.
