Chaos Hole Ancestor and the others left, but Long Chen and the others were in chaos.
Today's encounter had a great impact on them.
Ancestor God Hongjun and the others arrived later. Apart from the core group of Fifth Era Ancestor Gods, there weren't many others gathered here.
"Where are the others?" Chaos Ancestor God asked.
Hongjun said, "They heard that Long Chen killed Chiyou and billions of living beings. Their hearts wavered and they don't dare to come here anymore."
Chaos Ancestor God said angrily, "How can we believe their words?"
They had lost at least 20 Fifth Era Ancestor Gods. Those Ancestor Gods were afraid of Long Chen and didn't want to get involved in this struggle.
Hongjun sighed, "The key is that Chiyou's suicide is too unbelievable. They don't believe it, so they can only understand it as the Chaos Hole Ancestor and the others said."
This wasn't out of their expectations.
But they were helpless.
"After losing the support of many Fifth Era Ancestor Gods, our advantage is gone. Now, we are evenly matched, or even slightly stronger. Fortunately, those Ancestor Gods we lost just wanted to stay neutral."
Long Chen was still calm at this moment.
When the Chaos Hole Ancestor and the others left, they were still clamoring that today's matter wasn't over yet. They would definitely avenge Chiyou's death …
The Fourth Era Ancestor Gods had started fighting. The civil war between the Ancestor Gods had broken out, but it didn't affect the lower level Ancestor Gods. All of them were fighting at the higher level. The most crucial ones were the Fourth and Fifth Era Ancestor Gods.
"No matter what, they will take many measures. Long Chen, you have to be careful. After all, you are their only target," said the Founding Ancestor Demon.
"The public opinion of the Myriad Worlds is hard to control now. However, it's useless to explain this matter. As time passes, the truth will naturally come out." Long Chen nodded.
In fact, he didn't care about the loss of 20 Fifth Era Ancestor Gods. After all, he knew that he could only rely on himself to survive in such a situation.
He needed to have the power to fight against the top Fourth Era Ancestor Gods.
"You're right. You don't need to care about the affairs in the world for the time being. Go back to your tower of time for cultivation. As for the affairs outside, the public opinion and the struggle against our opponents, we 10 will work together." Primeval Battle Ancestor said.
That was all they could do.
The best way was to not show his face. Once he showed his face, there would be danger.
"Go back."
Long Chen returned to the tower of time and cultivated and lived with his wives and daughters, ignoring the disturbances outside. As for the other Chaos Ancestral Gods, they were resolving the fury of the Great Wizard Ancestor and the other Ancestors of the Great Wizard Ancestor. During the process, they fought each other for a few times. Eventually, all the Ancestral Gods of the Fourth Era gathered together in case of being attacked by the Great Wizard Ancestor.
Things had already developed to this extent.
The ten thousand worlds that had not been peaceful for long were once again thrown into chaos.
Even the lower-level Ancestral Gods were affected. Many Godly Venerables and Deity Emperors also joined the chaotic battle. They were divided into two groups based on their attitudes towards Long Chen. From that day onwards, even though the Ancestral God of Creation had yet to perish, chaos was inevitable.
Under the request of the Fourth Epoch's Primordial Ancestor Gods, Long Chen focused on cultivating and completely ignored what was happening outside.
He really wanted to interfere, but he also knew that the other party's goal was to lure him out. As long as he went out, he would fall into the other party's trap.
…
Outside the Dragon Sacrificial Continent.
In the distance, the shadows of the nine Ancestral Gods emerged from the darkness. They were not their real bodies.
"Dragon Sacrificial Continent."
They looked at the place with burning eyes.
"I didn't expect them to be so desperate and set up so many formations here. With so many defensive formations, it will take us half a day to break through."
"After such a long time, the ten of them should have arrived long ago. After all, they have one more than us. If we really fight, we're more likely to suffer losses. Using this method to force Long Chen out is indeed a bit of a cheap trick. We should have a better way."
Everyone discussed for a while.
"That's right. A lot of time has passed. With Chiyou's death, now is the time to strike while the iron is hot. Don't wait until the storm is over to take action. Now, we still have the excuse of anger and hatred."
In the end, the Bright Gold Ancestor said, "I have an idea."
The other eight gathered their gazes on the Destruction Ancestral God.
The Bright Gold Ancestor said, "The success rate of forcefully breaking through the Dragon Sacrificial Continent isn't high. Moreover, we need to fight head-on, so we don't have much confidence. Now, the one who has lost his support is Long Chen, and we are the righteous ones. In that case, even if a righteous person commits a crime like kidnapping, it's still for the sake of righteousness, right? Therefore, we can capture a person whose life Long Chen cares about and force him to come out and perish. Even if we use the hostage's death to threaten him, we have an excuse. After all, we're the ones who are angry and hateful. At worst, we'll call it even. The Myriad Worlds Ancestor Gods won't say anything about us. After all, Long Chen will already be dead by then."
"Well said." Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Actually, this was just a small idea. It was just that the Bright Gold Ancestor had said it clearly. Right now, they were in the stage where they were raising the flag of righteousness no matter what they did.
"But who is this hostage? As far as I know, those who are related to Long Chen are all around him." The Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor didn't lose his mind and asked calmly.
"Have you forgotten what happened last time?"
The Bright Gold Ancestor smiled faintly and said, "In the final battle of Ancestral Gods of the fifth era, Long Chen fought on behalf of Pangu. Just last time, he was angry because Chiyou had killed many people of Pangu Continent. Now, among the existences we can control, Pangu is the most suitable one. Once we get rid of Pangu and threaten him with his life, I don't believe Long Chen can still hide and not come out. If he comes out, we can ask for more conditions."
"That's right."
When they thought about it carefully, they realized that Long Chen and Pangu did have a deep friendship, and Long Chen was someone who would risk his life for him.
"As long as Pangu is in our hands, it won't be difficult for us to take Long Chen's life away by threatening him with his life."
"If he's a coward, we can kill Pangu to vent our anger, and then put the blame on Long Chen's head, saying that he didn't save him."
Long Chen still had the Ancestral God of the fourth era with him. However, most of the Ancestral Gods of the fourth era had gathered together, so they couldn't kidnap them alone.
"Come, let's go to Pangu Continent and find a chance to wait for Pangu."
Pangu followed Chaos Ancestral God and the others, but he would occasionally return to Pangu Continent. Last time, when the defensive formation was broken, he was repairing it.
… …
The days in the Tower of Time were very quiet.
Long Chen was comprehending his own Laws, and was also guiding Long Yan, Long Lin, and Long Qingsheng.
"Xiao Lang."
In the Tower of Time, Mo Xiaolang had returned.
Long Chen had been waiting for him for a long time, and he had finally returned to Dragon Sacrificial Continent.
It was Ancestor God Creation who asked him to come back.
Now that the Ancestral Gods Alliance only existed in name, and the Ancestral Gods had fallen into a civil war, there was no need for Ancestor God Creation to imprison Long Chen any longer.
"I thought that when I came out, you would be the number one Ancestral God in all the worlds. I didn't expect it to be so fast. It's only been a nap."
Mo Xiaolang smiled.
It had only been a year or two.
Long Chen had been in the Tower of Time for tens of thousands of years, so he didn't get in the way and returned to the group of companions.
When they were free, Long Chen and Mo Xiaolang talked about what had happened recently.
"It seems that I smell danger, as if something is approaching," said Mo Xiaolang with a frown.
"Maybe it's the Sky-devouring Clan. They are so powerful that they can't be imprisoned forever. Besides, we don't know if there are other Sky-devouring Clans in all the worlds," said Long Chen.
"Big brother, there is still no answer for the Nine Yin Demon Ancestor's attack on you, and there is still no clue about the fate changing rope of the Chiyou Demon Ancestor. The key is that the Chiyou Demon Ancestor committed suicide … Maybe I smell the danger behind all these things."
In fact, Long Chen thought so too, but he couldn't find any trace of the danger.
