"Hmph!"
Emperor Ziwei, after being suppressed by Emperor Qin Wushi last time, no longer dared to confront him alone.
So, when the No-Origin Bell appeared above his head, Emperor Ziwei didn’t even think before mobilizing the order of the Primordial Heavenly Court and speeding towards it, harboring not a single thought of directly confronting Emperor Qin Wushi.
Boom!
As Emperor Ziwei fled, the No-Origin Bell, losing its target, viciously smashed into the Void, creating a thunderous sound, tearing millions of miles of the Void into a Land of Nothingness.
"Hmm?"
Watching the retreating back of Emperor Ziwei, Emperor Qin Wushi’s brow slightly furrowed, and a disdainful expression appeared on his domineering face.
A prestigious one among the Six Emperors of the Heavenly Court choosing to flee without fighting, truly disappointing.
"What a pity!"
Bloodied Bai Qi appeared beside Emperor Qin Wushi watching the departing Emperor Ziwei with a dismissive curl of his lip.
He had just been entangled by Emperor Gouchen, otherwise, together with Emperor Qin Wushi, they could have certainly crushed Emperor Ziwei right here.
"It’s not the time yet. Let’s go!"
Emperor Qin Wushi smiled faintly. Achievers of the Half-step Emperor Dao Realm are not as easy to kill as imagined; everyone has methods to protect and save their own lives.
That Emperor Ziwei could escape meant it wasn’t his time to die.
"Let’s go!"
Bai Qi nodded.
Together with Emperor Qin Wushi, they left, roaming through the Human Dao Formation, seeking out Heavenly Soldiers and Generals around the weak points of the formation, slaying all they encountered, whether led by the Six Emperors or the armies led by Half-step Emperor Dao Realm achievers.
Some high-level officials in the Heavenly Court, upon hearing this news, issued orders to retreat their forces, not giving Emperor Qin Wushi and Bai Qi any chance to hunt them.
They had also considered setting a trap to encircle and kill Emperor Qin Wushi and Bai Qi, but the two were extremely slippery. Once they detected something amiss, they immediately escaped into the Human Dao Formation, giving no chance for the Heavenly Court members to encircle them.
When the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother heard of this, they were furious.
Before this campaign against the Yanhuang Small World, he had declared that no forces would withdraw until the World was overtaken; yet now, most high-level officials were beginning to pull back to the Heavenly Court, making him feel frustrated as well as helpless.
You can’t discipline a crowd.
That’s just how it is.
However, while he couldn’t kill these retreating Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, he could still castigate them thoroughly!
"Damned fools!"
"Leading billions of Heavenly Soldiers, Generals, and dozens of Half-step Emperor Dao Realm mighty ones to encircle and suppress the Yanhuang Small World, yet returning in defeat?"
"A disgrace!"
"A colossal disgrace!"
"Trash, all trash!"
"..."
The Jade Emperor was truly enraged.
The top powerhouses of the Heavenly Court mobilized, innumerable armies and dozens of Half-step Emperor Dao Realm fighters. Even facing the once-profound Great Qin Divine Dynasty without fear.
Yet such a terrifying configuration failed to conquer the Yanhuang Small World, and even had the tables turned on them.
Humiliating.
Utterly humiliating!
This time, the Heavenly Court’s reputation was completely disgraced.
Ever since the Great Qin Divine Dynasty achieved Transcendence, the Heavenly Court had been an imposing behemoth—never had been slapped in the face like this.
"Your Majesty, two reasons account for our defeat. Firstly, the Yanhuang Heavenly Court somehow devised a formation called the Human Dao Formation. No matter the realm of the individual entering it, they would be torn apart by terrifying energy;
Secondly, Emperor Qin Wushi, who, with the assistance of the Investiture of the Gods and the Human Dao Formation, kept ambushing us, giving us no chance to guard against his attacks!"
"We didn’t retreat from fear of the Yanhuang Small World but to avoid the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals from being stealthily annihilated by Emperor Qin Wushi!"
"Indeed, Your Majesty, if we cannot resolve the Human Dao Formation on the Yanhuang side, we cannot destroy them!"
"This formation is tremendously terrifying, embodying all energies of the Three Thousand Great Dao, intricately complex, utterly unfathomable, and to this point, no weakness has been identified!"
"..."
Everyone discussing Emperor Qin Wushi and the Human Dao Formation showed horror on their faces.
Especially when speaking of Emperor Qin Wushi, they trembled with terror. Although powerful, facing Emperor Qin Wushi, particularly that dreadful Supreme Treasure, none could assure a safe retreat.
After all, powerful beings like Emperor Qing Hua died at the hands of Emperor Qin Wushi; they were not as strong as Emperor Qing Hua, how could they contend against Emperor Qin Wushi.
"Your Majesty, unless the Human Dao Formation on the outer perimeter of the Yanhuang Small World is breached, we can’t obliterate the Yanhuang Small World! We must devise a plan!"
"Emperor Qin Wushi’s Investiture of the Gods is also a problem; if we can’t resolve this, no one encountering him could match up!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Human Dao Formation and Emperor Qin Wushi are problems. Without resolving these two, Yanhuang cannot be eradicated!"
"..."
The beings all vented. Emperor Qin Wushi and the Human Dao Formation were like swords hanging over their heads; without resolving these two, none dared leave the Heavenly Court.
The Jade Emperor waved his hand.
"The rebellion of Yanhuang must be cleared!"
"Emperor Qin Wushi repeatedly opposes the Heavenly Court, even killing Emperor Qing Hua, he is irreconcilable with our Heavenly Court, he must be annihilated!"
"My command is for you to lead your generals and continue towards the Yanhuang Small World. The Queen Mother and I will personally intervene to lend you aid."
The gods looked at each other.
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother personally intervening.
For tens of thousands of years, this was the first time!
"Your Majesty, are you really taking action?" the Queen Mother asked with furrowed brows, speaking softly.
