"You can think whatever you want," Long Chen said indifferently. Since they were going to fall out with each other, there was no need to be so restrained.
In fact, before the vote, Long Chen was quite nervous. If there was a one-sided vote, Mo Xiaolang would definitely die. However, at this moment, in addition to the Primordial War Ancestor, the Chaos Ancestor God, the Primordial Chaos Ancestor God, the Creation Ancestor God, the Lord of the Original Soul, and the other Ancestor Gods of the original-level worlds that Long Chen had found before the arrival of the Ancestor Gods, all chose to support Long Chen. Before this, they were all neutral.
With them leading the way, among the Fourth Era's Ancestor Gods, there were two fewer people who supported the killing than those who opposed it. These two people made up ten votes. Next was the attitude of the Fifth Era's Ancestor Gods. It was very simple. They just needed to take a side. Those who supported the killing stood on one side, and those who opposed the killing stood on the other.
At the same time, Long Chen remembered every single person who supported killing him, and he also remembered every single person who opposed killing him. He was very clear about gratitude and grudges. Whoever wanted to harm him, he would take revenge. Whoever helped him, he would repay their kindness.
In the end, among the Fifth Era's Ancestor Gods, there were about ten more people who supported the killing, such as Demon Ancestor Chiyou's group. Adding up the Fourth Era's Ancestor Gods and the Fifth Era's Ancestor Gods, there were about ten more people who opposed the killing.
In fact, this was the opinion of a Fourth Era's Ancestor God.
Long Chen won.
It was an extremely thrilling and narrow victory.
"Thank you, everyone. In the future, Long Chen will definitely repay your kindness." Long Chen bowed to those who opposed the killing.
"Don't worry, we have our own judgment standards. We won't be deceived by others."
Among the Fourth Era's Ancestor Gods, the Chaos Ancestor God said lightly. This time, it was thanks to his help. He had a good relationship with the Primordial Chaos Ancestor God and the Creation Ancestor God. He opposed the killing, and the other two also joined in.
Divine Ancestor Kṣitigarbha didn't expect that he would lose, and he was so close. This comparison made him angry. Of course, there was enmity between him and Long Chen, but Long Chen wasn't afraid of them. at this time, the Chaos Ancestor God said loudly.
"Everyone, although Mo Xiaolang has made great contributions to the Myriad Worlds, and we can't kill him or repay his kindness with enmity, he is, after all, a member of the Sky-devouring Clan. Therefore, I suggest that we imprison Mo Xiaolang first. Of course, we imprison him forever. We can't let him go out or devour others. Otherwise, no one can joke around with the safety of the Myriad Worlds. If something happens, Long Chen won't be able to bear the responsibility. For this decision, we're already being merciful by not taking his life."
Next, he wanted the Ancestor God Alliance to vote again. In fact, many people were wavering in the previous vote. They didn't want to give up. Even if they couldn't kill him, they couldn't let Mo Xiaolang follow Long Chen around and get away with it. At the very least, they needed to fight back and dampen Long Chen's spirit. They couldn't let him be too presumptuous.
This time, almost all those who supported killing Mo Xiaolang were in favor of eternal imprisonment. The Ancestor Gods who opposed killing Mo Xiaolang also had their own considerations. In fact, they were also worried that the Myriad Worlds would make the same mistake and cultivate another terrifying member of the Sky-devouring Clan. After all, the stronger members of the Sky-devouring Clan were imprisoned. Once the Sky-devouring Clan was controlled, would it lead to the destruction of the Myriad Worlds?
Although they felt that Mo Xiaolang couldn't be killed, it didn't mean that he couldn't be imprisoned forever. Therefore, at this time, three Ancestral Gods of the Fourth Era who were originally on Long Chen's side supported eternal imprisonment. As for the Ancestral Gods of the Fifth Era, about three-fifths supported eternal imprisonment.
Those who believed that Mo Xiaolang was not guilty at all were at a disadvantage this time. The other side had a relatively large lead, which meant that according to the rules of the Ancestor God Alliance, Mo Xiaolang would be imprisoned forever.
For Divine Ancestor Kṣitigarbha and the others, this was not their primary goal, but it could be achieved and it was also a counterattack against Long Chen.
For Long Chen, at least Mo Xiaolang's life was saved.
At least Long Chen wouldn't lose this brother.
This was the end. This time, Long Chen couldn't resist. Although he was still very angry and unwilling, it was already a miracle that he could protect Mo Xiaolang's life this time.
"Don't be sad. You've tried your best. He won't blame you," Primordial War Ancestor said helplessly as he patted Long Chen on the shoulder.
In the Primitive Hell, although Mo Xiaolang didn't speak, there were already tears in his eyes. He held back for a long time before he said to Long Chen, "Big Brother, this is the best ending. Don't worry, it's just imprisonment. It's not a problem for me. Besides, the so-called eternal imprisonment is just the time between now and when you recover the true power of the Ancestral Dragon. I don't believe that when you rule over all the worlds, I, Mo Xiaolang, will still be free."
His voice was very firm.
It also gave Long Chen strength.
"That's right. If I become the strongest in the myriad of worlds, why wouldn't I give you freedom? What's so difficult about eternal imprisonment? It's just that I'm very sorry that I have to make you lonely for so long and separate you from Yan 'er for so long …"
"It's not that long. You've been cultivating on the fourth floor of the tower of time for 5,000 years. As for me, as Primordial War Ancestor said, I don't think I'll be imprisoned for more than 100 years. In the final analysis, it's just a piece of cake, big brother."
As Mo Xiaolang said this, he smiled relaxedly.
"Yes, it's just a piece of cake."
Unexpectedly, Mo Xiaolang was more open-minded than Long Chen at this moment. Long Chen thought about it for a long time. It was really a piece of cake. Mo Xiaolang trusted him so much that he firmly believed that he could become the Ancestral Dragon of the Fourth Era or even the Third Era within 100 years.
Therefore, he had no reason not to believe in himself.
"Big brother, if I don't even have time to bid farewell to her today, please apologize to Yan 'er for me. I didn't mean to make her worry today. I can assure her that I will treat myself very well during this period of time."
Speaking of this, Long Chen actually realized a more important problem.
If it was eternal imprisonment, as long as he was able to free Mo Xiaolang in the future, it was not a big problem. The real problem was who would be imprisoned and where would he be imprisoned.
As expected, Divine Ancestor Pudu said, "As for imprisonment, I can do it. I guarantee that he will be completely sealed and nobody can touch him. Of course, I won't punish him privately and keep him alive."
"Since he's imprisoned forever and can't be released, how would we know when you killed him? You had ill intentions towards him, so you can't be a prisoner." The Primordial War Ancestor directly retorted. His reasoning was also very convincing.
"Do you want them to meet every day? I'm afraid we won't even know when you are wandering outside," Primordial War Ancestor retorted.
These three Ancestor Gods of the Fourth Era had always been the ones who led the opposition against Long Chen.
Primordial War Ancestor said, "Of course not, but it definitely won't be you. I recommend Ancestor God Creation to do it. We believe that she can be fair and just."
In fact, Primordial War Ancestor and Ancestor God Creation were not familiar with each other. However, Primordial War Ancestor and the other two Ancestor Gods didn't care much about this matter. But it was obvious that they were on Long Chen's side today. Therefore, Primordial War Ancestor transferred this matter to them. Anyway, they wouldn't let him be imprisoned.
"Then let Creation do it. She can be fair and just. Don't worry," Primordial Chaos Ancestor God said.
"I can also guarantee for Creation," Primordial Chaos Ancestor God said.
In addition, Primordial War Ancestor's good friend, Lord of Original Soul, also said a few words. This kind of matter needed to be said first. Divine Ancestor Pudu might not be trustworthy. On the contrary, Ancestor God Creation was a suitable choice for all the Ancestor Gods.
"Then I'll do it. If anything happens, I'll take responsibility."
Ancestor God Creation didn't back down. She said to Long Chen, "I'll act according to the rules of the Ancestor Gods Alliance. Say goodbye to your brother. I'm afraid you won't be able to see each other in the future, but I can promise you that I won't hurt him."
Indeed, she was very fair.
She wouldn't side with Long Chen like Primordial War Ancestor, but according to the rules, she would never let Long Chen see him in private, let alone let Mo Xiaolang come out. Primordial War Ancestor chose her only as a stop-gap measure. After all, he was worried that Divine Ancestor Pudu and the others would snatch him away. That would be troublesome. Therefore, he transferred her to the fair Ancestor God Creation.
Given Long Chen's situation, when his strength was above Ancestor God Creation's, he could ask Mo Xiaolang for help. But that was a matter for the future. What he needed to do now was to ensure Mo Xiaolang's safety.
With this result, Long Chen fought for it to the best of his ability. There was nothing Long Chen could say.
He wanted to let Mo Xiaolang and Soyeon meet at this last moment, but Mo Xiaolang said, "Let's not. With so many people watching, it will only make us sad, make me reluctant, and make others laugh at us. Big Brother, we brothers are supposed to be proud. Don't let others look down on us. In that case, I'm afraid I'll just sleep and wait for you for a hundred years."
His strong confidence in Long Chen was like a strong friendship to Long Chen. Now that the anger in his heart had been suppressed, he smiled. As Mo Xiaolang said, it was still a small matter, so there was no need to feel sad. How could a man not have this little bit of heroism?
"In a hundred years, maybe I can find a gift that can help you break through to your current realm. You have endless room for improvement, and I won't let you stop here."
Now that everyone was improving, Long Chen wouldn't let Mo Xiaolang fall behind.
"I'll wait for that day to come."
At this time, Mo Xiaolang had already appeared in the infinite worlds. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, there were no tears, nor was there any sadness. Long Chen hugged him once, and then he smiled and went over to Ancestor God Creation. After being imprisoned by Ancestor God Creation, he would probably have to live a lonely life for a while. Long Chen's last glance at him was a relaxed smile.
Ancestor God Creation had also come from Long Chen's Death Reign. She arrived in an instant, and after imprisoning Mo Xiaolang, she didn't say much and just took Mo Xiaolang away.
After all, she had promised that although she acknowledged him, Long Chen didn't want to make things difficult for her for the time being.
This farce was finally over. Neither side won or lost, but the conflict between Long Chen and some of the Ancestor God Creation of the Ancestor God Alliance was completely ignited.
"Hmph."
The Ancestor Gods disappeared one by one.
