After arriving before Qin Chen, the Great Protector and the Great Elder both retracted their auras and respectfully knelt on one knee.
Everyone looked at Qin Chen and the two with astonishment, their expressions blank.
The Blade Demon Supreme and others were shocked; these were the Great Protector and the Great Elder, supreme-level experts, who actually knelt before Qin Chen. This was simply... mind-shattering.
Qin Chen frowned and asked, “You two, what is the meaning of this?”
The Great Protector and the Great Elder looked up. Their faces were lined with deep wrinkles, looking extremely gaunt. Being suppressed for countless years had taken a great toll on them.
However, at this moment, their murky eyes shone with unprecedented brightness, radiating dazzling divine light.
Even a supreme-level expert, once they erupt, is not to be underestimated, even after being suppressed for countless years.
The Great Protector and the Great Elder looked at Qin Chen and respectfully said, “We are aware of everything that has happened. Although we have been controlled by the High Priest and turned into living corpses, our consciousness remains. For countless years, the Great Protector and the Great Elder have been tormented, wanting to obliterate our divine souls, making us mere puppets under her command.”
The Great Elder scoffed, “I am the Shadow. I was a force to be reckoned with in the ancient era, how could I let her manipulate me?”
At this point, a trace of sadness flickered in the eyes of the Shadow Supreme, “But under the suppression of the treasure from the cosmic sea, we did not even have a chance to resist and could only endure her torment. It was young friend who defeated the High Priest and rescued us from being mere walking corpses.”
“Though I am a member of the Demon Tribe, I also understand the principle of gratitude. From now on, we are willing to follow you into battle across the world, without any hesitation.”
The eyes of the Great Elder and the Great Protector sparkled like stars, yet they were filled with unwavering determination.
Qin Chen frowned and questioned, “You are all from the Righteous Path Army and supreme-level experts; do you truly wish to submit to me?”
“Hahaha.”
The Great Elder suddenly laughed, and the corner of the Great Protector’s mouth also curved into a smile.
After countless years of suppression, their emotions were evident in their excitement from being rescued.
The Great Elder said with a smile, “Is a supreme-level expert so rare? You must have numerous supreme-level experts by your side, right? Not to mention, just these three Chaos Demon Gods were also supreme-level experts in the ancient times, along with the Limitless Supreme, who was once the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.”
The Great Elder glanced at the Limitless Supreme, who was also familiar to him from years past.
“Following you, what is there to be ashamed of? Moreover,” he looked at Chen Sisi, “Her Holiness the Saintess is the successor of Princess Lianxin Luo; although we are one of the three decision-makers of the Righteous Path Army, regardless, Princess Lianxin Luo is our true master. Even if our cultivation is higher, we will surely assist Her Holiness the Saintess in the future.”
“And since Her Holiness the Saintess is your beloved, if I am not mistaken, she must also listen to your words, right? In this case, what difference does it make whether we submit to you or to Her Holiness the Saintess?”
The Great Elder and the Great Protector exchanged glances, their expressions bright and cheerful.
Everyone was dumbfounded, speechless.
Is this really possible?
At that moment, the Limitless Supreme suddenly interjected, “Shadow Supreme, Qin Chen is of the human race, while you from the Righteous Path Army are of the Demon Tribe. You are leading many members of the Demon Tribe to submit to a human; are you sure about this?”
“Human race? Demon Tribe? What difference does it make? Aren’t they all races of this universe?”
