As soon as Long Chen arrived, he heard such arrogant words from the Great Wizard Ancestor.
He looked at the ten Ancestral Gods of the Fourth Era indifferently and finally fixed his eyes on Long Chen. "Long Chen, I didn't expect you to be so sad one day. That's right, I knew that they were close to you, so I killed them and crushed their souls. Your loved ones lost their lives in my hands, so what can you do? Kill me? There are trillions of lives in the Great Wizard Realm, and if you dare kill me, they will all die. You claim to be righteous, but do you dare to do such a heinous thing?"
In Long Chen's eyes, the Chaotic Hole Ancestor seemed to have changed into another person. He could say and do anything, and he was fearless even in the face of 10 Fourth Era's Ancestral Gods.
Long Chen took a deep breath. He knew that the Great Wizard Ancestor was stalling for time, so he said, "I'll give you one last chance. Let them come back and I'll let you go immediately. As for today's enmity, I'll settle it with you in the future."
In fact, Long Chen was the one who kept his word. It wasn't that he didn't want to kill the Great Wizard Ancestor today, but he was concerned about the Dragon Attendants' lives. In comparison, the Dragon Attendants' lives were naturally 10,000 times more important.
The Great Wizard Ancestor burst into laughter.
"Truly, am I such a kind and cowardly person in your hearts? I'll say it one more time. I've already killed those eight seniors of yours. Even if you were to kill me now, you would not be able to find their souls."
He looked at Long Chen fearlessly.
His ferocious gaze made Long Chen suspect that the Great Wizard Ancestor was telling the truth and that the Dragon Attendants were gone.
"Imprison him."
Since the Great Wizard Ancestor was unwilling to cooperate, he could only resort to violence. This was the only way. Even if it led to a life-and-death battle between the Ancestral Gods of both sides, he needed to confirm the current situation of the Dragon Attendants.
The Chaotic Ancestral Gods also knew that since the Great Wizard Ancestor was unwilling to cooperate, they could only take action. Under Long Chen's command, the ten Ancestral Gods suddenly attacked the Great Wizard Ancestor.
It wasn't too late for him to make a move against the Chaos Hole Ancestor.
Long Chen retreated to the side, his scarlet eyes constantly flickering. The words of the Great Hole Wizard Ancestor made him somewhat uncertain. He had a feeling that the Dragon Attendants might really be dead …
No matter how heaven-defying the Chaotic Hole Ancestor was, he would still be suppressed if ten existences of the same level ganged up on him. However, just as the battle began, a light flickered in the distance. In an instant, a total of eight Fourth Era Ancestral Gods descended in shock. They appeared right next to the battlefield.
"Very good. Besieging the Chaotic Hole Ancestor, are you trying to defeat us one by one?"
"Long Chen, you guys are really ruthless."
As soon as the eight Ancestral Gods appeared, they were immediately enraged and instantly joined the battle. Clearly, they didn't know about the Dragon Attendants. What they saw was ten Ancestral Gods from the Fourth Era besieging the Chaotic Cave Ancestor.
For a time, another chaotic battle between nineteen Elder Gods took place.
Under such circumstances, it was very difficult for Long Chen's side to gain an advantage. Just as he was about to suppress the Chaos Hole Wizard Ancestor, an external force suddenly attacked him. The Chaos Hole Wizard Ancestor seized the opportunity and slipped out of the encirclement.
"This is troublesome."
The Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor had escaped for such a long time, so it was normal for him to summon them over. Now that they were evenly matched, this kind of chaotic battle was what Long Chen and the others needed to avoid the most. After all, even if all of them were defeated, it wouldn't be beneficial to Long Chen.
Moreover, it was impossible to do so. The other party wasn't easy to deal with.
"Long Chen."
He was near the battlefield and could easily be affected. The Primordial War Ancestor left the battlefield and came to Long Chen's side. All the Fourth Era Ancestral Gods in front of him were fighting one-on-one.
"There's no other way today. Their numbers are all here. It's impossible for us to capture the Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor by remaining in a deadlock like this." The Primordial War Ancestor solemnly said while guarding Long Chen.
It wasn't that Long Chen couldn't see the situation clearly.
However, his heart was filled with hatred.
Especially now that 90% of the Dragon Attendants were dead, it was obvious that he couldn't take revenge at all. If he rushed forward now, it would be even more irresponsible and suicidal.
The battlefield was terrifying. The Primordial War Ancestor pulled Long Chen back a great distance before saying, "There are two situations now. The first is that the Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor has killed your elders. This is hatred that can't be redeemed, so you can only take revenge. However, for you, today isn't the day for revenge. Besides killing, we don't have a way to deal with the Fourth Era Ancestral Gods. Therefore, we can only retreat first. When you reach our realm, you can kill them at will."
"The second situation is that the souls of your elders are still controlled by them. That seems even simpler. Previously, the Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor didn't have a guarantee of safety. Now that their people are here, if they want to discuss conditions, we can call a truce now and they will talk immediately. That way, there's still hope for your elders to come back to life."
Long Chen's thoughts were quite chaotic. Thanks to the Primordial War Ancestor's help, he was able to understand that based on the current strength of both sides, this kind of chaotic battle was completely disadvantageous to Long Chen.
"Everyone, let's retreat from the battle first."
It wasn't that Long Chen had forgotten about the hatred. He just wanted to know whether the dragon servants were dead or not.
The Primordial Ancestor God and the others were also very clear. They just knew that Long Chen was feeling terrible and couldn't bear to disappoint him. After hearing Long Chen's words, they quickly retreated from the battle. After all, they had just entered the battle, so it wasn't difficult to escape. Instantly, the ten Fourth Era Ancestral Gods gathered around Long Chen.
"You guys are really despicable and shameless. You actually attacked the Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor when there were so many people. How ruthless and courageous. If we hadn't come in time, the Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor would have been killed by you." The Mortal People's Emperor Ancestor was so angry that he was spitting fire.
"What a good plan. You want to defeat us one by one. Why didn't we think of this before? If we had known, we would have targeted one of you and killed one of you."
The eight Ancestral Gods that had just arrived were all abnormally angry. Their gazes were unfriendly. As for the Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor, he looked like he had everything under his control.
Of course, the Ancestral Gods on Long Chen's side would not allow them to suppress them.
The Primordial Ancestor God sneered and said, "It seems that the Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor didn't tell you the truth. Of course he wouldn't tell you what dirty and shameless things he did. He attacked the two Ninth Era Destruction Ancestral Gods and a group of gods and robbed their souls just because they had a close relationship with Long Chen and were Long Chen's elders. We are all ashamed that a Fourth Era Ancestral God would do such a thing. Also, let me tell you, we only attacked him because we wanted him to hand over the souls of Long Chen's elders."
In a few words, he had clearly explained the matter.
Of course, the eight of them didn't know about this.
"Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor, is what they said true? You saw several elders of Long Chen and robbed them of their souls?" Divine Ancestor Pudu asked secretly.
"That's not right. I don't remember you having such a method." The Mortal People's Emperor Ancestor was also surprised.
Under everyone's questioning, the Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor said, "They are just a few small fries. I didn't like them, so I killed them."
"Really, as long as we hold them hostage, we will have a great chance of killing Long Chen. If you do this, you will only make Long Chen hate us," said Sheji Demon Ancestor.
The Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor said coldly, "If you want to quarrel, wait until later."
Now that the two sides had separated, Long Chen stepped forward and asked, "Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor, now that all your people are here, can you tell me what I want for you to return their souls to me?"
Now that the Chaotic Hole Wizard Ancestor's life was guaranteed, he could indeed speak.
