Chapter 2720: Paying Respects to Master Ye!

No one had expected the Giant Ape Saint Sovereign and the Roc Saint Sovereign to be so courteous.

Dahuang was ten thousand times their size, yet even as a newly ascended Saint Sovereign, he had no grounds for arrogance before them.

But they were being polite!

Their words placed Dahuang on an equal footing with themselves.

"Heh, it seems everyone is here. Why hasn't Brother Bull Demon shown up yet?" said the Giant Ape Saint Sovereign.

Before his words faded, a powerful aura swept in.

Giant Ape and Roc's expressions changed abruptly as they stared at the newcomer in shock.

"Old Bull... he broke through!" Roc said incredulously.

Giant Ape Saint Sovereign's eyes flickered. "It seems my guess was right!"

"Haha, Old Ape, Dead Bird, I am the one who took this step first!" Bull Demon Saint Sovereign landed, looking at them smugly.

The three had fought for years, always neck and neck.

Now that he had taken the lead, he naturally wanted to show off a bit.

Hearing this, the two Saint Sovereigns' faces darkened like the bottom of a pot, but they dared not show it.

After the Saint Emperor Heaven, advancing was extremely difficult.

The three of them had spent tens of thousands of years just to reach the peak of Lower Saint Emperor Heaven.

But now, Bull Demon Saint Sovereign had broken through from Lower Saint Emperor Heaven to Middle Saint Emperor Heaven!

Bull Demon Saint Sovereign was now the undisputed king of the Myriad Demon Mountains!

Giant Ape and Roc, for this reason, looked forward even more to the "Fifth-Rank Heavenly Alchemist" behind Bull Demon Saint Sovereign.

No matter the cost, they had to forge a connection with this "Fifth-Rank Heavenly Alchemist"!

"Bull Demon, don't be so smug! It's not that your talent surpasses ours; you just got lucky meeting a Fifth-Rank Heavenly Alchemist! If that master is willing to help, how could we not break through?" Roc snorted.

"Fifth-Rank Heavenly Alchemist?" Bull Demon Saint Sovereign was taken aback, then a playful smile spread across his face.

These two fools had no idea and actually thought Ye Yuan was a Fifth-Rank Heavenly Alchemist!

Not that it was surprising—Ye Yuan's methods were beyond many Fifth-Rank Heavenly Alchemists!

Seeing Bull Demon Saint Sovereign's expression, Giant Ape Saint Sovereign sneered, "What, do you take us for fools? At this point, are you still trying to keep it to yourself?"

Bull Demon Saint Sovereign laughed heartily. "You two old relics, even if I wanted to keep it to myself, what could you do? True, killing you two isn't easy, but if you really piss me off, you won't be able to stay in the Myriad Demon Mountains anymore, will you? Could you break through and come back for revenge?"

His words left the two Saint Sovereigns deeply frustrated.

Though Bull Demon Saint Sovereign had broken through, killing them both would still be difficult.

But with his current strength, they could no longer remain in the Myriad Demon Mountains.

Seeing their deflated expressions, Bull Demon Saint Sovereign was immensely pleased.

"Hey, rest assured, I'm not that narrow-minded! Without you two old relics, I'd have less fun. Brother Ye is preparing to come out of seclusion and will be here soon! As for whether he'll help you, that's up to you!" Bull Demon Saint Sovereign said with a smile.

Brother?

Giant Ape and Roc were excited but puzzled.

This old bull dared to call him brother?

Ignoring their confusion, Bull Demon Saint Sovereign waved his sleeve and declared, "As you all know, within a few days, six Saint Sovereigns have broken through in the Myriad Demon Mountains! So the landscape here is bound to change drastically. I've called you all here today for that reason!"

His words made everyone tense.

Territory size was not just a mark of status but also brought tangible benefits.

Today's meeting was clearly to break the old rules and establish new ones.

This would inevitably affect everyone's interests.

It concerned every true spirit's interests!

Giant Ape and Roc wanted to speak but wisely kept silent.

Now, it was no longer their place to interfere.

"From today onward, all Saint Sovereigns will have no territories, only their own fiefs! All the lands of the Myriad Demon Mountains will be distributed to those below Saint Emperor Heaven!" Bull Demon Saint Sovereign's words immediately stirred up a huge commotion.

The three Saint Sovereigns had occupied nearly seventy percent of the territory.

Now, they were giving up all of it!

Giant Ape and Roc looked extremely displeased.

But they knew Bull Demon Saint Sovereign had more to say.

He wasn't running a charity.

Sure enough, Bull Demon Saint Sovereign continued, "From today, the Myriad Demon Mountains will establish the Hall of All Saints. All Saint Sovereigns will belong to the Hall of All Saints! Those who reach Half-Step Saint Emperor Heaven may enter the Hall of All Saints as guests. Henceforth, all territories must submit resources of Third-Rank and above to the Hall of All Saints, which will then distribute them uniformly."

At these words, all true spirits changed color.

This move by the Hall of All Saints was too ruthless!

It effectively monopolized all high-level resources!

The Saint Sovereigns, however, brightened.

This meant concentrating the entire Myriad Demon Mountains' resources to support the Saint Sovereigns!

For the Saint Sovereigns, this was an excellent thing!

Many true spirits showed discontent.

But in this jungle, what the Saint Sovereigns said was law, and no one dared to object.

Just then, a human figure suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.

"A human! Why is there a human here?"

"A Lower Jade Emperor Heaven, barging into the True Spirit Assembly—is he asking for death?"

...

This human was naturally Ye Yuan, who had just emerged from seclusion.

Recently, he had gained new insights into his Nine Heavens Dragon Transformation Fist and had gone into seclusion for a few days.

Seeing Ye Yuan, Bull Demon Saint Sovereign smiled. "Weren't you asking to meet the master behind me? He's here!"

Roc Saint Sovereign was stunned and said darkly, "Old Bull, don't think that just because you've broken through, you can toy with us! How could a mere Lower Jade Emperor Heaven be a Fifth-Rank Heavenly Alchemist?"

Giant Ape also looked displeased. "Bull Demon, you've gone too far! Did you just find some random human to fob us off?"

Jade Emperor Heaven was a strong realm in the Myriad Demon Mountains.

But in the eyes of the two Saint Sovereigns, it meant nothing.

So their first instinct was that Bull Demon Saint Sovereign was mocking them!

But just as they were about to rage, the six newly ascended Saint Sovereigns all left their seats and rushed toward Ye Yuan like the wind, jostling each other.

"Newly ascended Saint Sovereign Huben, here to pay respects to Master Ye!"

"Newly ascended Saint Sovereign Dahuang, here to pay respects to Master Ye!"

...

The six Saint Sovereigns surrounded Ye Yuan and bowed deeply.

Their demeanor was devout.

The true spirit experts on the mountain, including Giant Ape and Roc, were utterly dumbfounded.
