Two months later, the territories of the Tong Race and the Gang Race were conquered. Their affiliated races either surrendered, left with the two races, or sneaked into their ancestral lands.
The Gang Race and the Tong Race were going to the Universe Region. The major races from the Immortal Region had left. The war had come to an end. The allies had won a complete victory.
Naturally, it was time to divide the spoils of war!
At the suggestion of a master, the leaders of the 10 masters gathered at the Apotheosis City, the main city of the Temple of Apotheosis, to discuss how to divide the territories.
The Tong Race's territory was occupied by the Temple of Apotheosis and the Gang Race's territory was occupied by the Tuan Race. The territories of the two races were next to the Temple of Apotheosis and the Tuan Race. Some of the other forces were in the same territory and some were not. They could not divide the territories like this.
All the territories had to be adjusted, and how to adjust them would require negotiations. Everyone wanted more territories, and everyone wanted more benefits. How the negotiations would be conducted would depend on the confidence and skills of each clan.
In the main hall of the Apotheosis City, all the forces had come. There were two representatives, both of whom were leaders. The lowest was the Second Patriarch.
Lu Li was not here. Emperor Li and Emperor Mo represented the Grim Reaper. Warriors of the Tuan Race and the Temple of Apotheosis did not come. Warriors of the Tuan Race and the Temple of Apotheosis would not come.
"Where is Alliance Leader Lu?"
Master of the Temple of Apotheosis asked Emperor Li. With Lu Li here, things would not be messy. Also, Lu Li had fought side by side with them. He would put in a few good words for them.
Lu Li's words carried weight. Who would dare to say anything when he said so?
"I don't know!"
Emperor Li shook his head. He knew that Lu Li had gone back but he did not want to expose his whereabouts. Emperor Li said, "I think he went after the Gang Race and the Tong Race.
He wants to make sure that the two races and the forces from the Immortal Region have retreated. "
"Thank you, Alliance Leader Lu!"
"Yes, Alliance Leader Lu has done a great service. Thank you."
The group of experts began to praise Lu Sheng, but a Great Elder of a Sovereign Faction who was ranked near the back suddenly suggested, "Alliance Master Lu has indeed worked hard and performed well. This old man suggests that we give all of the Gang Tribe's territory to the Grim Reaper as a reward for Alliance Master Lu!"
The Great Elder's words silenced the entire place, and the atmosphere became extremely awkward.
Emperor Li's eyes lit up. He was a little excited, but he quickly calmed down.
This Great Elder seemed to be doing this for the Grim Reaper, but he actually had ulterior motives.
The Gang Tribe's territory was very far from Death God's. Unless Death God gave up all of his territory in the Heaven Crossing Boundary, he wouldn't be able to do anything.
After operating in the Tianyue Boundary for so long, how could the Grim Reaper give it up?
The Chief Patriarch of the dominating force was smart. He was afraid that the Tuan Race and the Temple of Apotheosis would snatch away most of the benefits. Therefore, he used Lu Li as a shield to suppress the Tuan Race and the Temple of Apotheosis first.
The Seal Temple Master and the Grand Elder of the Tuan Tribe were a little embarrassed. This time, their two tribes and the Grim Reaper had contributed the most, so they naturally wanted to obtain the greatest benefits.
Give all of the Gang Tribe's territory to the Death God?
How was that possible? The Gang Tribe's territory had occupied the territory of the Tuan Tribe. It was the most fertile land in the entire Chaotic Starfield. The Tuan Tribe had been eyeing it for a long time.
Of course, the Tuan Race was too embarrassed to bring this up. The Seal Temple Master paused for a moment and said with a smile, "If Death God is willing to give up his original territory, I have no objections. We will give all of the Gang Tribe's territory to the Grim Reaper."
A group of powerful warriors turned to Emperor Li who said after a pause, "No, we cannot give up the territory in the Heaven Crossing Boundary."
"Ha, ha!"
Emperor Li's attitude displeased one of the dominating forces. He looked at Emperor Li and said, "Emperor Li, are you saying that you want the territory in the Heaven Crossing Boundary and the Gang Tribe's territory?
You have such a big appetite. Aren't you afraid that you will be too full?
Have you asked Emperor Lu about this?
About the Grim Reaper … can you make the decision? "
Emperor Li was enraged. He stood up and said, "Old Yu, what do you mean?
I can't make the decision about the Grim Reaper?
How dare you look down on me? "
"Of course not!"
Old Yu grinned and said, "I want you to go and ask Emperor Lu. Are you sure you want to take over such a large territory?
Can your Grim Reaper take it all? "
Another patriarch of a dominating force said, "The Alliance of Ten is fighting against the enemies and all the dominating forces have contributed. Now, there are two territories and the Grim Reaper wants only one. Isn't this too much?
We don't even have to eat. We can't even have a sip of soup. Emperor Li, your Grim Reaper is too much. "
The Deputy Master of the Fire Beacon Pavilion said, "I don't think this is Emperor Lu's idea. It is Emperor Li's idea.
I think you should ask Emperor Lu's opinion first. "
"Right, right!
Emperor Li, you cannot make the decision. Go and ask for instructions! "
Of the nine masters, four had spoken. Their words were filled with provocation. They seemed to be trying to provoke Emperor Li. Based on their words, Emperor Li was stating that he could not represent the God of Death. He was not a big deal and Lu Li had to make a decision.
Emperor Li had always been the leader of the Grim Reaper. He used to think that he was the Grim Reaper and that he was the Grim Reaper.
Now, he was humiliated by the other forces. How could he swallow this humiliation?
He slapped the table and bellowed, "You don't have to ask for instructions. I can represent the Grim Reaper. We will take the Gang Race's territory. What's wrong?"
As far as Emperor Li could tell, the Grim Reaper had played a decisive role in the fight against the Gang Race and the Tong Race.
If it were not for the Grim Reaper, the 10 dominators would have been wiped out, not to mention discussing the division of territories.
Now that they had won, the other forces were working together against the Grim Reaper?
How could he not be angry that they were burning bridges after crossing the river?
Emperor Mo, however, felt something was off. It seemed that the other forces were working together to put pressure on Emperor Li.
That was not normal.
Lu Li was the leader of the alliance and he had made a great contribution. Not only were the dominators not grateful, but they were working together against the Grim Reaper?
What were they trying to do?
Emperor Mo thought for a while and soon, he figured it out!
Lu Li had made a great contribution. In terms of contribution, it would not be an exaggeration to give the Gang Race's territory to the Grim Reaper.
However, if the Gang Race's territory was given to the Grim Reaper, the other forces would not be happy.
Especially the forces at the bottom of the ranking, they might not even get a share of the spoils.
Therefore, the Gang Race decided to retreat for the sake of advancing and then irritate Emperor Li on purpose?
Did they gain the upper hand first?
Later, if Lu Li came forward, there would be room for negotiation, wouldn't there?
What was more, the Tuan Race and the Temple of Apotheosis would not be happy if the Grim Reaper took over the Gang Race's territory. The Tuan Race and the Temple of Apotheosis would work together to isolate the Grim Reaper. Could Lu Li fight against the nine dominators?
Emperor Mo sent a message to Emperor Li at once, telling him not to fall for the trap. But Emperor Li was in a fit of rage. How could he listen?
He stood there, fuming, like a fool.
The Temple of Apotheosis and the Tuan Race were not happy. They were about to say something when a voice came from the hall, "What is going on?
The war has just ended. Are you going to work together against the Grim Reaper?
If so, Emperor Li and Emperor Mo, come back with your teams. We don't want the territory anymore. Give it to them! "
The voice came from the hall without warning. The tone was calm, as if it was a conversation between old friends.
But the entire hall quieted down as soon as the voice was heard. All the powerful warriors sat up straight out of instinct because the voice belonged to … Lu Li.
Emperor Li and Emperor Mo were surprised as well. Wasn't Lu Li at the Tianyue City?
How did he come here?
But Emperor Li and Emperor Mo did not question Lu Li's words. Emperor Li was still unhappy, but since Lu Li had spoken, he did not dare to say anything.
"Hmm, let's go!"
Emperor Li snorted and left. Emperor Mo glanced at everyone with a cold smile and left in strides.
Before the other powerful warriors could ask them to stay, Emperor Li and Emperor Mo had already left the hall and vanished from the sight of the powerful warriors.
The entire place was still deathly silent, but the unease in the eyes of all the experts was extremely obvious. Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of some of the weaker experts from the Ruler Clans, and their hearts were extremely uneasy.
Lu Li seemed to be angry.
