With Gu Qijue's wisdom, how could he not know what these guys were really worried about?

They were merely afraid that he had boasted earlier and that he wouldn't be able to deal with even two random demigods from the Southern Heng Domain.

However, it could also be seen that the leaders of these Dragon Blood Demon Race were quite smart.

Even though he had inherited the legacy of the Blood Dragon God, these leaders maintained a cautious and prudent attitude.

There was a reason they had been able to develop to such a scale in the Nan Heng Sea.

Of course, Gu Qijue still decided to give them a lesson.

He casually said to Gu Chitong, "Chitong, show them your power."

Gu Chitong, already reverted to his adorable yet strange Dragon Prince form, did not hesitate upon hearing Gu Qijue's words.

Soon, under the incredulous gaze of the three Merfolk Emperors, Gu Chitong transformed into a mini version of the Blood Dragon God.

Although it was a mini version of the Blood Dragon God, the aura it emitted still compelled the three Merfolk Emperors to kneel on the ground in reverence!

The Merfolk Emperor, in disbelief, exclaimed, "Peak of Demigod!"

The Black Flood Dragon Emperor swallowed hard, utterly dumbfounded.

This adorable little dragon was terrifyingly powerful.

Even in its infancy, it was already nearly reaching the level of a Divine Spirit!

The Water Spirit Emperor was equally flabbergasted, staring at Gu Qijue and Gu Chitong.

At this moment, she was both extremely shocked and immensely pleased.

Gu Qijue indeed had not been making empty threats; with Gu Chitong around, demigods from the Southern Heng Domain were doomed no matter how many came.

Although the Southern Heng Domain did have formidable demigods, Gu Chitong was at the Peak of Ninth Layer, just a breath away from becoming a true Divine Spirit.

In such circumstances, what was there for them to worry about?

And at this moment, Gu Qijue temporarily withdrew his demonic power.

The three Merfolk Emperors saw his true appearance.

Upon discovering his real identity, the three Merfolk Emperors once again knelt and saluted.

"Greetings, Your Excellency the Leader Gu."

Gu Qijue was quite satisfied with their reaction.

The Dragon Blood Demon Race could be considered allies of Emperor Star by nature, but even though they were also creatures of the Southern Heng Domain,

because they carried dragon blood, the creatures of the Southern Heng Domain regarded them as high-level materials.

Yet Gu Qijue still asked the three a question of life and death: "Are you willing to submit to Emperor Star?"

The three Merfolk Emperors knew well that this was not a scoring question but a life-and-death one.

If they got it wrong, their lives would be in danger.

Without hesitation, the Merfolk Emperor replied, "Since Your Excellency has obtained the legacy of the Blood Dragon God, we are willing to submit to Emperor Star!"

If she hadn't said the previous sentence, it would imply they might be traitors to the Divine Desolate Continent.

In reality, they had no choice but to seek refuge with Gu Qijue.

After all, the creatures of the Southern Heng Domain never considered them their own.

Following the Merfolk Emperor, the Black Flood Dragon Emperor and Water Spirit Emperor also spoke up.

Of course, both were willing to submit to Emperor Star.

Gu Qijue was very satisfied with the attitude of the three, and after he once again disguised himself with demonic power, his gaze shifted slightly.

The Merfolk Emperor nervously asked, "Your Excellency, has something happened?"

Gu Qijue nodded, "Your judgment was correct. Demigods from the Southern Heng Domain have indeed grown impatient."

"Five demigods have entered the Southern Heng Domain and are heading in this direction at great speed."

If this had been earlier, upon hearing that five demigods were coming together, the three Merfolk Emperors would have been terrified.

They struggled to deal with just three demigods.

If five demigods arrived at once, their only option would be to self-destruct for a more dignified end.

Things were different now; with Emperor Star Leader Gu Qijue present, and especially with Gu Chitong at the peak demigod level by his side,

handling five demigods was definitely not an issue!

Gu Qijue's thoughts differed from those of the three Merfolk Emperors.

They thought he could handle five demigods,

whereas he thought that five precious demigod crystal cores were rapidly approaching him.

Demigod crystal cores could be used to create demigods or even to create gods directly!

This time, Gu Qijue intended to use the demigod crystal cores to create a god.

The five demigods entering the Nan Heng Sea were not from the Southern Heng Domain but from other places.

After learning that there were benefits in the Nan Heng Sea, they decided to come and take a share.

The Southeast Continent Plate of the Divine Desolate Continent, while now divided into the Four Domains Alliance and the Five Domains Alliance,

the purpose of the Five Domains Alliance was to deplete Emperor Star's forces to the greatest extent in the war with the Four Domains Alliance, rather than allowing Emperor Star to sustain itself through battle.

The outcome of the war between Emperor Star and the Four Domains Alliance should be to weaken them critically, to the point of near collapse.

Only then could the Five Domains Alliance reap the benefits and have the last laugh.

Under such circumstances, the Five Domains Alliance naturally provided considerable support to the Four Domains Alliance.

They not only backed them with ample resources and conventional combat units,

but also supported the Four Domains Alliance with some demigods.

This time, among the five demigods entering the Nan Heng Sea, two were supported by the Five Domains Alliance, named Qian Yuan and Qian Yi.

Qian Yuan and Qian Yi both hailed from the Celestial Qian Domain of the Five Domains Alliance.

The Celestial Qian Domain had a vast ocean and numerous floating islands.

These conditions made Qian Yuan and Qian Yi excellent at water combat.

Knowing the benefits of the Nan Heng Sea, they naturally wanted to apply their skills.

This entry into the Nan Heng Sea was led by Qian Yuan and Qian Yi.

In a stretch of waters, Qian Yuan watched numerous demon races flee in panic, a cruel and sinister smile crossing his face.

He stated, "I hope the so-called Merfolk Emperor, Black Flood Dragon Emperor, and Water Spirit Emperor, "

"won't be so scared when they see us that they run for the hills."

"After all, the Nan Heng Sea isn't small, and we don't have that much time to play a cat-and-mouse game with them."

Qian Yi, upon hearing this, pointed towards the fleeing Dragon Blood Demon Race in the Nan Heng Sea.

"Don't worry, these ants will lead us to even more ants."

The pressure from the five demigods, including Qian Yuan, spread continuously, causing numerous Dragon Blood Demon Race members to panic and flee towards their respective leaders.

The Dragon Blood Demon Race was diverse, but all could only frantically flee.

The faces of numerous demon races, and even their eyes, were filled with despair.

Because among them, the top three strong individuals, utilizing the residual energy of the Blood Dragon God in the Nan Heng Sea, could only contend with three demigods at most!

At this moment, the many creatures of the Dragon Blood Demon Race harbored only one thought in their hearts: impending doom!
