Chapter 1589 -s 1536-1537 Acting Domineering, Strongmen’s Tacit Understanding_2
According to their reasoning, since the Myriad Laws Realm would permit the Jade Emperor lineage to participate, it signified that the Longevity Taoist Monarch, and even the True Immortals of the Shenxiao Sect, were not concerned about this matter.
After all, if they truly cared about this matter to a great extent, why would they allow the other party to act unfettered within the Myriad Laws Realm? They could have simply refused the other party’s participation from the beginning, directly solving the problem at its source.
"It’s not the same! The Taoist Monarch might not care, the True Immortals might not care, but that doesn’t mean these people don’t care!" A trace of an indescribable expression appeared on the face of the War God of the South Pole.
"The Taoist Monarchs may not mind these things, but to the likes of Wan Fayi, the honor of the Shenxiao lineage rises above all else. The Jade Emperor’s actions basically equate to disregarding the Shenxiao lineage. Tell me, do you think they would so easily allow it?" The words were laden with a hint of apprehension as they were spoken by the War God of the South Pole.
The strength of the Shenxiao lineage did not solely come from the Longevity Taoist Monarch; it also came from those powerful True Immortals. And, among those who serve as the core, the Supreme Strong, their unity in upholding the Shenxiao lineage represented the might of the Shenxiao Sect.
Just like in the current situation, it seemed that these disciples were acting against the will of the Taoist Monarch and the True Immortals, but what they were doing was upholding the honor and dignity of the Shenxiao lineage.
They were signaling to the Jade Emperor and others that, while the Taoist Monarch and the Sect Leader, these powerful beings, might disregard the Jade Emperor’s trivial maneuvers and be magnanimous enough to forgive them, it didn’t mean the Shenxiao lineage was willing to swallow their pride. They would make it clear to the Jade Emperor that the Shenxiao lineage was not to be provoked.
"Such tyranny!" a strong cultivator remarked softly, a complex look upon his face.
Obviously, from the current situation, these participants from the Shenxiao Sect, even if they were willing to forsake all opportunistic fortune and not take part in the final ranking, would stop at nothing to prevent the Jade Emperor from seizing the Great Law Decree Technique.
And if one were to think about it carefully, in the very beginning, it was the Shenxiao lineage that first acted to stop the Jade Emperor’s plans. The real victim wasn’t the Shenxiao lineage, but the Jade Emperor.
