245: Chapter 182 Shao Siming_3 245: Chapter 182 Shao Siming_3 It was not that no Immortals and Buddhas questioned everything; Gou Chen Great Emperor was the first to stand up, accusing the Dragon Clan of being traitorous courtiers, first submitting to the Jade Emperor, and now to Great Emperor Ziwei, obviously being nothing more than servants to two different families.
In the face of such accusations, the Dragon Clan simply did not care.
Even Ao Guang stood up and responded, “None of your business.
If the Jade Emperor were alive, you could call my Dragon Clan servants to two families, and we would accept it.
But the Jade Emperor is already dead.
For the sake of the common people of the world, it is right for my Dragon Clan to come under the jurisdiction of Ziwei Heavenly Venerate.
You who do not recognize the heavenly decree, who go against the will of the people, are the true traitors and will eventually receive your retribution.”
Gou Chen Great Emperor was almost angered to death, yet he was unable to make an effective rebuttal.
Most importantly, what Ao Guang said was all true.
Although the Jade Emperor did not die, Gou Chen could not reveal it.
As for Great Emperor Ziwei being proclaimed by all beings as the Great Heavenly Venerate, it was precisely in accordance with the heavenly decree and the will of the people; even if he wished to refute, he could find no reason.
Gou Chen Great Emperor sneered and said, “The common people are ignorant; I don’t wish to say more.
Great Emperor Ziwei has stolen the position of Great Heavenly Venerate, which is a fact that nobody can change.”
“I think the truly ignorant one is you.
To get the position of Great Heavenly Venerate, you stop at nothing, even framing your own brother.
You do not deserve to be one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
Any Immortal or Buddha sitting in your place would be better than you, a mere figurehead indifferent to the lives and deaths of the common people, only seeking to fulfill your own ambitions.
The Three Pure Ones were truly blind to have chosen you to become Gou Chen Great Emperor,” said a cold voice, remarkably rude.
Afterward, a towering figure appeared in the midst of the Three Realms.
He stood in front of the palace gates of Gou Chen Great Emperor, radiating an overwhelming intent to battle.
Many Immortal Gods of the Three Realms were astonished and then observed everything through their spells.
Initially, the two parties were conversing across the distance.
Unexpectedly, the Dragon Clan actually came knocking.
Moreover, the one who came had immense strength, clearly a Great Heavenly Venerate.
The Dragon Clan’s Ao Zhan.
This was the name that suddenly emerged in the hearts of the Immortal Gods of the Three Realms.
Other than Ao Zhan, they could not think of anyone else.
Gou Chen Great Emperor did not come out of the palace gates, but his voice came out: “Ao Zhan, what is the meaning of blocking my palace gate?”
Ao Zhan’s lips curled with a slight look of disdain as he said indifferently, “No particular meaning, just wanting to ask why Gou Chen Great Emperor harbors such resentment towards my Dragon Clan.
If Gou Chen Great Emperor is dissatisfied, feel free to come out and battle me.”
Gou Chen Great Emperor: “…”
Have you not seen The Three Pure Ones being criticized without any reaction?
This Ao Zhan’s strength can be described as formidable, definitely not any weaker than him, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Heavenly Court.
One of the progeny of the Ancestral Dragon, he exhibited formidable strength in the era of the Ancestral Dragon, having already advanced to the domain of Great Heavenly Venerate.
Afterward, due to a battle, he suffered heavy injuries and then vanished.
At that time, people thought he had died, not expecting that he was still alive and appeared at this moment, directly challenging Gou Chen Great Emperor.
“Hmph, do you think I am afraid of you?” came Gou Chen’s cold voice, barely restraining his anger.
The verbal confrontation from a distance was something he could still tolerate.
But now Ao Zhan had already arrived at Gou Chen Great Emperor’s gates; if he showed no response, he might as well not continue to be one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Heavenly Court.
The hearts of the Immortal Gods of the Three Realms all rose in anticipation; would these two engage in battle?
A battle between Great Heavenly Venerates, be it the battle of the Dragon Clan Great Heavenly Venerate against Gou Chen Great Emperor, held a tremendous allure for the Immortals and Buddhas of the Three Realms.
Great Emperor Ziwei watched this scene with great interest, not intervening.
Ao Zhan had many reasons for acting this way.
The first was to flex their muscles, showing the Dragon Clan’s strength to the Immortal Gods of the Three Realms.
The second was to show Great Emperor Ziwei that their Dragon Clan was wholeheartedly siding with him, having completely broken with Gou Chen and the others.
He didn’t need to say anything else; fighting Gou Chen Great Emperor would speak louder than words.
Gou Chen Great Emperor appeared, his gaze icy.
He said coldly, “Ao Zhan, I understand your intentions, but you shouldn’t have chosen me.
Do you really think I, Gou Chen, am so easily bullied?”
Ao Zhan affirmed confidently.
Gou Chen Great Emperor immediately flared up; the other party had indeed taken him for a pushover, and it was something he couldn’t and wouldn’t tolerate any longer.
Gou Chen Great Emperor directly launched an attack.
Ao Zhan laughed out loud, shouting, “Bring it on!”
Following that, Ao Zhan made his move as well, and the two top-tier Great Heavenly Venerates collided.
The entire Three Realms could feel the mighty mana fluctuations.
Within the Dragon Clan, the Dragon Mother was somewhat worried.
“Husband, won’t our ancestor come to harm?” she asked.
Ao Guang laughed and said, “Rest assured, my lady.
A mere Gou Chen Great Emperor cannot harm our ancestor.
You do not know of our ancestor’s renowned past; among the Great Heavenly Venerates of the Three Realms, very few could match him, and even if Gou Chen Great Emperor is formidable, at most he can only be an equal match to our ancestor Ao Zhan.”
“I’m worried the others like Houtu might make a move,” the Dragon Mother said with some concern.
Ao Guang sneered and reassured, “My lady, worry not.
When it comes to the number of experts, our Dragon Clan has never feared anyone.
It would be in their best interest not to do so.”
The Dragon Mother nodded, her expression easing slightly.
Knowing the foundation of the Dragon Clan, she also became less worried.
In the Heavenly Court, the battle was still raging.
Both unleashed their True Fire, Ao Zhan charging ferociously, while Gou Chen Great Emperor employed various formidable Divine Skills.
The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was drawn out casually by them, transforming into Divine Skills to attack each other.
