Luo Chi wanted to retort, but Jiang Sha glanced at him. "It's useless to say this now. If we don't unite, we probably won't be able to leave this place alive."
Including Lu Youyou, everyone's expressions changed. They understood that they were all in the same boat now. They only had each other to rely on.
If there was an internal conflict, it would indeed be beneficial to no one.
"Elder Jiang has a plan. I will try my best to bear the responsibility for this matter."
Song Shi nodded. He was a person who was amenable to coaxing but not coercion. Naturally, nothing would happen if Luo Chi had spoken to him properly. He was not a timid person and would not shirk his responsibility.
However, Lu Youyou said in a rare manner, "You also did that to stand up for me just now, right? Thank you."
"No, I just don't like him."
Song Shi put his hands behind his back, unwilling to let Lu Youyou think too much.
Lu Youyou rolled her eyes and looked at the woman behind Song Shi who was wearing a pig's head mask. "Who is she?"
"My new maid, Ling'er."
"Are you ugly? Why are you wearing a mask?"
As Lu Youyou spoke, her body swayed and she was about to remove Chen Yiling's mask.
The latter sensed it and did not dodge. Her appearance would help her escape.
Swoosh! A hand grabbed Lu Youyou's arm first. It was Song Shi, "She's indeed ugly. Don't scare everyone."
Chen Yiling gritted her teeth. Who was ugly? This guy was really annoying.
Lu Youyou became even more excited and sized up Chen Yiling with interest, "Oh, I'm not afraid of her being ugly, and her figure is quite good. Tsk tsk."
Chen Yiling said coldly, "Please have some self-respect!"
"Yo, you still have a little temper. Blood-Robed old ghost, your maid is a little spicy."
Lu Youyou teased.
"Don't touch my person!"
Song Shi was displeased. This witch was really troublesome. It seemed that he had not taught her enough lessons.
"I'm just joking. Otherwise, I'll think of sad things again."
Lu Youyou was on the verge of tears.
"Go ahead and cry. Just don't mess with me."
For a moment, Song Shi could not understand why this woman, who had been crying just now, was still in the mood to tease Chen Yiling. It was really strange.
Just as Song Shi frowned, a commotion suddenly appeared at the gathering place of the various countries, attracting everyone present.
"The Immortal Dao Conference is about to begin!"
Someone shouted. Then, powerful fluctuations appeared, and the color of the world instantly changed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Lights of various colors soared into the sky. Suddenly, dragons and tigers roared, phoenixes and cows mooed. Song Shi looked sideways and saw a spectacular scene.
On the Qian Nation's side, a five-clawed golden dragon soared into the sky with auspicious clouds and auspicious qi pervading the air. At the head of the dragon, a middle-aged man wearing a crown and a golden robe stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an aura of supremacy in the world.
"This is Emperor Qian?"
Song Shi sensed the other party's majestic aura and was shocked.
This person stood there like a supreme being of heaven and earth, as if he was the heavens, domineering and high and mighty.
"Soul Transformation realm, he is definitely in the Soul Transformation realm!"
Sensing that the other party had integrated into the world and had an extraordinary Aura, Song Shi took a deep breath.
This should be the second Soul Transformation cultivator he had seen, and he had seen it with his own eyes. It was much stronger than the White Snake Demon Venerable's second soul he had encountered.
"Oh no, Emperor Qian has actually broken through to the Soul Transformation realm. No wonder he dares to attack us!"
When Jiang Sha saw this, his expression changed drastically. The emperors of the various countries were usually at the Nascent Soul realm. If they reached the Soul Transformation realm, they would retreat and focus on preparing to ascend.
However, after breaking through, they would definitely reveal their strength for a period of time. They were really unlucky to have bumped into each other.
"That's good."
Song Shi was not shocked. Instead, he was overjoyed. Since he was following the Heavenly Ghost Sect, he now had another powerful enemy.
"Are you crazy? The more powerful the royal family of Great Qian is, the more unlucky we are."
Lu Youyou glared at Song Shi angrily, "If you hadn't killed the head of the Ye family, I would have thought that you were a spy."
Chen Yiling's heart skipped a beat, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.
"Think what you want."
Song Shi could not be bothered to talk to Lu Youyou. He shifted his gaze. Opposite the golden dragon, a scarlet divine bird with a wingspan of a hundred meters was letting out a phoenix cry.
This divine bird was not as tall as the golden dragon, but its aura was not weak. The scarlet flames all over its body distorted the Void non-stop. The power contained in it far exceeded his Pure Yang True Fire. It was a spirit flame that could only be cultivated at the Soul Transformation realm.
"Why is it another Soul Transformation cultivator?"
Song Shi was puzzled, "The Li Nation has the Vermillion Bird Divine Art. Could this be formed from the Vermillion Bird Spirit Flame? The one above is the ruler of Li Nation."
Song Shi recalled some information in his mind.
"This is the spirit flame of the country's guardian spirit beast, the Vermillion Bird. It's not cultivated from a cultivation technique. How ignorant."
Lu Youyou seized the opportunity to argue with Song Shi.
Chen Yiling glanced at Lu Youyou and then at Song Shi. She felt strange. Could it be that this demoness liked Song Shi?
"In that case, the Qian Emperor's golden dragon is also a spirit beast?"
Song Shi was a little confused. Previously, he had thought that the vivid Vermillion Bird was formed from Nomological power.
"Hehe, you guessed wrongly. The golden dragon is formed from Numinous treasures. The dragon race is one of the three great demon emperors of the demon kingdom. Why would these spirit beasts be willing to be the guardian spirit beasts of Great Qian?"
Lu Youyou said proudly. If one did not specially seek out such information, they would really not know.
"Other than Great Qian and the Sword Nation, which do not have any Protector Spirit Beasts, the other seven nations do."
Chen Yiling said.
When Lu Youyou heard this, she knew that this woman was definitely not as simple as a maid. This was because ordinary people could not come into contact with a spirit beast at the level of the country's guardian.
"The spirit beast is a good animal. The taste of the spirit beast meat should taste very good."
Song Shi licked his lips and looked at the Vermillion Bird's body. He considered taking a bite if he had the chance in the future. Then it would not be in vain that he had died so many times in this world.
"Are you crazy? He would turn you into ashes with a spit of fire, you still want to eat him?"
Lu Youyou scoffed.
"Then I'm even more interested."
Song Shi's gaze was inexplicable.
"Dammit, this old bastard is really sick."
Luo Chi couldn't stand it anymore and scolded, "You'd better not provoke them. It's fine if you have a death wish, but don't harm us."
At this moment, through the flames, Song Shi could vaguely see a graceful figure standing on the back of the Vermillion Bird. He was slightly stunned, "It's actually a woman."
The various kings were all top existences among the Nascent Soul realm. They were elusive and rarely had the chance to see them. The relevant information was definitely top secret and would not be easily leaked. He really did not know the situation of the other kings.
"She's the new empress of Li country. Don't even think about seducing her."
As soon as Lu Youyou finished speaking, her mouth was forcefully sealed by Song Shi's finger.
"Are you a fly? You're so noisy."
Song Shi stared at Lu Youyou coldly. The latter could only respond with an angry gaze, but she could not say a word.
"What are you doing?"
Luo Chi berated.
Jiang Sha pressed down on his shoulder and shook his head, "Watch carefully. The people who have appeared now are all the kings. The true geniuses have grown up. There's still a huge gap between you and them."
The surroundings finally quieted down. Song Shi shifted his gaze and looked at the sky a hundred miles to the left of where Great Qian was standing.
A huge black eagle was flying high in the sky. Its wings were filled with dense lightning power as it streaked across the Void, emitting rumbling thunder.
"The ruler of the Thunder Kingdom."
Song Shi muttered. Many of the nine countries in this world were related to the five elements of the Eight Trigrams. They were the Qian, Li, Thunder, Wind, and Water countries.
