Of course, they were not the only ones.
They had also gathered many Ancestor Gods of the fifth and sixth eras who opposed Long Chen. Almost all of them had come to the Jiuli Demon Realm.
Long Chen and the ten Fourth Era Ancestor Gods were exposed in front of them.
Coupled with the discussion among the Ancestor Gods, they felt like they had been caught red-handed.
"You deserve to die."
The nine Fourth Era Ancestor Gods descended with monstrous rage. They glared at Long Chen and the others and suddenly exploded.
Their movements constantly attracted the attention of the Ancestor Gods of all worlds.
"Demon Ancestor Chiyou is the Creation Ancestor God. The Nine Li Demon Region has trillions of lives. You actually killed Demon Ancestor Chiyou because of a personal grudge, causing trillions of lives to die. You have completely betrayed the principles of the Ancestor God Alliance. You really deserve to die.
Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha had a pitying look on his face. Such a scene simply made him 'grieve'.
"Who is it? Is it you, Long Chen, or one of the ten of you? Who is the murderer? You all know the rules of the Ancestor God Alliance. Those who don't report the truth will be punished the same as the mastermind. Or are all eleven of you the masterminds of today's incident?"
More and more Ancestor Gods came to join in the fun. They obviously wanted to blow the matter up, and now they couldn't hold it in any longer.
News of the matter spread across the myriad worlds. These ten Fourth Era's Primordial Ancestor Gods all supported Long Chen. Clearly, the main culprit behind the death of Chiyou Demon Ancestor and billions of lives was definitely Long Chen.
All the spearheads pointed in Long Chen's direction.
Countless people in the myriad worlds were discussing his arrogance and ruthlessness.
More and more Ancestor Gods gathered around.
"Long Chen, these people are merely your lackeys. Needless to say, the death of Demon Ancestor Chiyou is definitely your decision. You're too daring. You haven't even dominated the myriad of worlds yet, but you're already in a hurry to kill the Ancestor God. You're simply a beast. How can we allow you to harm the myriad of worlds in the future?" Chaotic Hole Sorcerer Ancestor's eyes were bloodshot and filled with killing intent.
Long Chen was already extremely cautious in the face of this group's aggressive aura. Now that there were even more Elder Gods gathered here, he suddenly said loudly, "Everyone knows that these nine Elder Gods find me, Long Chen, an eyesore. They are worried that I will grow stronger in the future and take control of them, which will endanger their status. That was especially true after the Fifth Era's Elder God Battle. They wanted to kill me, but I evaded them all."
"Today, Chiyou Fiend Ancestor has attacked Pangu Continent, killing and injuring countless lives on the continent. So, we captured him and brought his dead soul back to life with the Law of Life. Chiyou Fiend Ancestor had tried every possible way to lure us to kill him, but none of us fell into his trap. In the end, he killed himself in front of us, and that's what caused this change."
"We still don't know why Demon Ancestor Chiyou committed suicide, but the nine of you have appeared too quickly, as if you were prepared. Although I'm just guessing, I believe all of you can figure out that Demon Ancestor Chiyou's death is an excuse for you to kill me. What a crafty plot! You can't trap a wolf if you don't want to sacrifice the child. But, I can't help but sigh with emotion. You're really generous, abandoning the lives of Demon Ancestor Chiyou and billions of lives just like that."
Long Chen's heart was filled with anger.
He hated them even more than they did.
Those were billions of lives.
That was all he could say for today's matter. As for whether or not the Ancestor Gods believed him, that was their business.
"Nonsense, we are afraid of you, yes, but we will never use Demon Ancestor Chiyou's life to exchange for it. Your life, Long Chen, is not ten times as important as Demon Ancestor Chiyou to us." Ancestor Common People's Emperor snorted coldly.
"Stop talking nonsense. Giving him a chance to quibble will only cause more people to fall into his lies. Today, he has already revealed his brutal nature. He is not suitable to rule the myriad worlds, and he still used suicide as an excuse. What a joke. Let me ask you, which Ancestor God would give up the lives of himself and the lives of the world to commit suicide? Ridiculous, really ridiculous."
They let them continue. Those who still had some faith in Long Chen started to waver. They also thought about it, and the excuse of suicide was too ridiculous.
"Ten Ancestor Gods of the fourth era, I'm warning you, you are helping the wicked. If you don't get out of the way, we will use the Ancestor Gods Alliance to judge Long Chen, and you will become the sinners of history."
They turned the spearhead towards the ten Ancestor Gods of the fourth era.
"Don't use this kind of pointless assurance. If you have the guts, just attack directly. Using the life of the Demon Ancestor Chiyou to frame Long Chen, you are really willing to do so. At this point, your intentions are very clear. So, don't waste time."
The Ancestor Gods were really stubborn. They would attack sooner or later, so there was no point in wasting time here.
"You're right. We don't want to waste time with you. However, there's one thing that you shouldn't joke about. I've said it before, even if we want to kill Long Chen, we will do it openly. We will definitely not use such senseless methods. Moreover, in our eyes, Long Chen's life is not as important as Demon Ancestor Chiyou's."
Everything they said seemed to be true.
"Long Chen, return to the Death World. We will block here. We have never fought before, and it will happen sooner or later. With you here, it won't be good for us to attack."
This was the unanimous opinion of the ten Ancestor Gods.
Long Chen looked at the nine Ancestor Gods of the fourth era and many Ancestor Gods of the fifth era, who were ready to attack. Their only goal was him. As long as he left, they wouldn't succeed. As for the Ancestor Gods of the fourth era, they wanted to protect their own lives. That was something that Long Chen couldn't care less about.
"Alright."
Long Chen didn't waste time. He made a prompt decision and returned to the Death World before they attacked, completely closing the passage to the Death World.
He moved quickly.
"Kill!"
"Long Chen escaped."
"It would be strange if he didn't escape after doing something wrong."
The moment Long Chen left, the battle that had been brewing for a long time erupted. This was a terrifying thing. The strongest nineteen Ancestor Gods of the myriad of worlds joined the battlefield, engaging in an unprecedented chaotic battle. Even the Ancestor Gods of the fifth era couldn't interfere.
They were the strongest nineteen Ancestor Gods of the myriad of worlds.
The resulting collisions were simply unimaginable.
Within the Death World, Long Chen could vaguely see them attacking. The commotion wasn't great, but Long Chen could sense the terrifying nomological attacks. The nineteen Ancestor Gods of the fourth era were engaged in a chaotic battle. Long Chen, who was hiding within the Death World, couldn't see the details of the battle at all.
It wasn't convenient for him to ask, because they were all at a critical moment. It would be easy to disturb them.
The surrounding Ancestor Gods who were watching the commotion all hid far away.
However, the news of the internal battle between the strongest Ancestor Gods spread throughout the myriad of worlds. Even the living beings knew about it, and the myriad of worlds were thrown into turmoil. Even the Ancestor Gods found it hard to sit still.
"They're fighting. They're fighting."
"Heavens, they're all Ancestor Gods of the fourth era."
"The strongest Ancestor Gods of the myriad of worlds, each with a history of six great eras, have actually gathered together to fight. The myriad of worlds today will probably be destroyed by them."
Countless discussions and exclamations revolved around the battle.
Although Long Chen wasn't on the battlefield, he was a key figure.
"It's said that because Long Chen killed the Chiyou Demon Ancestor and caused the hundreds of trillions of lives of the Jiuli Demon Race to perish, then fled, the ten Ancestor Gods protected Long Chen. That's why they're fighting the other nine."
"It's normal for the nine Ancestor Gods to be unwilling to accept the death of the Chiyou Demon Ancestor and the hundreds of trillions of lives of the Jiuli Demon Race. Speaking of which, what kind of person is this Long Chen? He says that he only cares about the matters of the Dragon Sacrificial Continent, but he even dares to kill Ancestor Gods of the Creation Realms. The Chiyou Demon Ancestor has a lot of enmity with him, but it shouldn't be to this extent …"
"Maybe we've all misjudged him. His Ancestor Gods are all fighting, but he's running away. Isn't that just fleeing to avoid punishment?"
"He's actually this kind of person … In that case, I hope that he loses this internal battle of the Ancestor Gods. Without him, the Ancestor Gods Alliance can rule the myriad worlds, and everyone can discuss things together. That way, the myriad worlds will be more stable and develop better …"
While the Ancestor Gods were fighting, the hearts of the myriad worlds' Ancestor Gods and the people were also quietly changing because of this matter. As for the fact that the Chiyou Demon Ancestor had committed suicide, just as Long Chen and the others had predicted, no one believed it.
About fifteen minutes later, the battle outside finally stopped.
The Chaotic Cave Ancestor and the others retreated, leaving behind the ten fourth era's Ancestor Gods. When Long Chen came out of the Death World, he discovered that they were all a little tired, but they didn't suffer any serious injuries.
However, when he looked at Long Chen's expression, he felt like crying and laughing.
"What's wrong?" asked Long Chen.
Ancestor God Creation said, "The nine of them are quite powerful. The ten of us attacked together, but we didn't gain any advantage. Our strength is about the same, and they also discovered this. Moreover, you're hiding, so there's no benefit in continuing the stalemate, so they retreated first."
This wasn't a good thing.
Firstly, the nine of them were able to fight against ten of them, which meant that their strength was about the same.
Secondly, Long Chen had left early today, so fighting wasn't their ultimate goal.
Most importantly, the death of the Chiyou Demon Ancestor had caused Long Chen to lose the support of the masses in the myriad worlds.
