The Queen Mother faced Hao Tian, so what the Yin Zhuo King said wasn't altogether wrong.

As for why he called the Queen Mother "Senior Sister," he probably wanted to differentiate himself from Hao Tian.

Women are sentimental, and the Queen Mother and Hao Tian did have a passionate love affair once, but, alas, endless time has worn it down to pure friendship between them.

The passion of a decade-long marriage can fade, let alone a billion years.

Now, the Yin Zhuo King's display does affect her, but in the end, love can't compare to interests; she and Hao Tian are a true union of mutual benefits.

With her, Hao Tian stands as the Mother of Three Realms, Yaochi's Queen Mother, and only with her can Hao Tian be the Three Realms Supreme.

"Junior Brother, say no more. If you release His Majesty now, it's not too late."

Nearby, a crowd of immortals eagerly ate melon, their minds already concocting the love-hate relationship among Hao Tian's trio.

Not a wasted trip! This melon is truly delicious!

The Yin Zhuo King felt somewhat disappointed in the Queen Mother and, with a jolt of mana, showcased his presence and said, "Senior Sister, today I'll show you that I am stronger than Hao Tian!"

He then disdainfully glanced at all the gods.

"Today, I will be the Lord of Three Realms. Who agrees? Who objects?"

Nezha smirked; this Hao Tian truly seemed to be in a rebellious phase, pulling this stunt to prove he is stronger in front of his unattainable goddess.

No further explanation needed on who "he" is; those who understand will naturally grasp it.

The gods were enjoying their melon right when the Yin Zhuo King startled them; although he was a clown in matters of love, his strength was undeniably formidable.

Everyone couldn't help but look toward the Queen Mother and Nezha.

The Queen Mother lowered her gaze; though she didn't acknowledge this Hao Tian, she didn't want to come forward to deal with him.

Thus, the matter fell upon Nezha.

Nezha actually wanted to step forward himself, as sending anyone else would just result in them being offerings; besides, he's definitely not going to have The Immortal of Colossal Spirit deal with the Yin Zhuo King — that's not a task for mere mortals!

However, in battle, the leader wouldn't directly face off against the enemy, which would reflect poorly on the leader's skills and imply the subordinates' incompetence.

The good thing is that, though Nezha hasn't been a leader for long, he has nonetheless won the people's favor.

The first to volunteer was The Immortal of Colossal Spirit; this savvy veteran saw no better opportunity to show loyalty than now.

Nezha glanced at him and saw through his little scheme; he's not Hao Tian, who would joke with others' lives just for show, knowing that a nod now would mean The Immortal of Colossal Spirit could soon be reincarnated.

That is, if he were lucky enough to even have the chance of reincarnation.

The gap is simply too vast.

"The Giant Spirit General has already earned merit by reporting the presence of a demon. How about letting others have the honor of vanquishing demons this time?"

The Immortal of Colossal Spirit: I admit there was a gamble, but now I've won!

Look, see, this is what leadership looks like — not only giving me face but also not sending me to my death. If the original Hao Tian were present, I wouldn't even need to volunteer before being sent to be cannon fodder.

"Minister, following Your Majesty's decree!"

The Yin Zhuo King opposite looked at Nezha and The Immortal of Colossal Spirit's harmonious display, twitching under his mask.

You, Immortal of Colossal Spirit, are such rubbish, yet you say the glory should be given to others?

But he stayed still and kept his pose; after all, as the villain, he couldn't lose his demeanor!

His senior sister was still watching!

"Your Majesty, I am willing to go forth to vanquish the demon!"

Nezha looked over to see the speaker was the Three Altars Sea Meeting God, Lei Zhenzi. Nezha had a good relationship with Lei Zhenzi's master, Master Taoyi, hence Lei Zhenzi received some benefits after Nezha rose to power.

If it were in the early years, Lei Zhenzi might have thought this was only right, but after spending many years in the Heavenly Court, he knows that people without value eventually get abandoned.

This time, Nezha did not refuse, for someone had to be sacrificed into the fray.

The three altars — Heaven Altar, Earth Altar, and Sea Altar — mean there are worshippers across the sea, land, and air, and this position is truly not bad. Jiang Ziya, during divine enshrinement, really regarded Lei Zhenzi as a junior when he selected this good spot for him.

Now, because of having acquired the Peng Wings, Lei Zhenzi's cultivation matches Nezha from the original timeline, surpassing him in speed, and he wields the Wind and Thunder Power, making his overall strength actually more superior.

Flapping his Peng Wings with wind and thunder swirling, he appeared before the Yin Zhuo King.

"Audacious demon, how dare you masquerade as the Heavenly Emperor and deceive at the Heavenly Court? Now, I shall subdue you!"

The Yin Zhuo King clasped his hands behind his back, taking on a masterful demeanor, and through the slightly stifled sound from under his mask, said, "Boy, how dare you try to flaunt your power before me?"

Lei Zhenzi knew the Yin Zhuo King wasn't easy to deal with; he was the Queen Mother's certified junior brother, so without saying much, he directly took out his strongest magical treasure, the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Shield, and covered him from above.

With the backing of Lei Zhenzi's Golden Immortal Power, nine fire dragons roared, spewing flames to begin refining the Yin Zhuo King.

The Yin Zhuo King laughed heartily, his robe billowing, as the purple mana surged, preventing flames from approaching.

Magical treasures depend on their owners too; the gap between Lei Zhenzi and the Yin Zhuo King's cultivation is already beyond the difference between heaven and earth.

The Yin Zhuo King pushed upwards with both hands, and Master Taoyi's mighty cave-stabilizing magical treasure was directly flipped outwards.

Lei Zhenzi knew that retreating was not an option now, so he charged with his spear, only for the Yin Zhuo King to strike him down with a palm from a distance.

He didn't deal a fatal blow to Lei Zhenzi, for he was here to display his strength.

"Who else?"

"Hahaha!"

Lei Zhenzi, already among the top combatants of the Heavenly Court, was downed with just a few strikes, and the opponent still appeared to handle things with ease.

The crowd of immortals looked at each other, seeing the arrogance of the Yin Zhuo King, somewhat at a loss.

"Let me test you!"

A furious shout echoed, and the one to enter the fray next was True Martial Emperor Yang Jian, who upon hearing the news of Hao Tian's rebellion, dropped everything he was doing and rushed promptly over, fearing missing out on the commotion.

After all, chances to fight the uncle openly are rare indeed!

Yang Jian's cultivation was on par with Lei Zhenzi's, but Yang Jian achieved his through sincere, rigorous practice, unlike Lei Zhenzi who depended on the Power of Incense to reach his inferior Golden Immortal level.

He rushed forward, wielding the Three-pointed Two-edged Blade, aiming straight at the Yin Zhuo King's head; the Yin Zhuo King, in a bid to show off before his goddess, didn't bother to dodge.

With mana circulating, he pinched the blade between two fingers.

Yang Jian, rich in battle experience, wasn't fazed. With a flick of his cloak, a slender dog darted out, taking a bite at the Yin Zhuo King's arm.

It was Yang Jian's biological weapon, the Howling Celestial Dog.

The Yin Zhuo King was clearly taken aback by Yang Jian's move, but absolute strength fears no surprises!

The raging mana from within shot out, blasting both the Howling Celestial Dog and Yang Jian away.

Yang Jian, having cultivated the Eight-Nine Profound Skills, was as sturdy as magical treasure, gathering the Howling Celestial Dog mid-air, then plowing two furrows into the ground before stabilizing his momentum just before colliding into all the gods.

The Yin Zhuo King, pinching the Three-pointed Two-edged Blade, flicked with another finger, and with a buzzing sound, the blade vibrated back and forth until it shattered into pieces.

"Hahaha, you're too weak!"
