"People of the world of the living?" Ning Muyao felt a sinking feeling in her heart; it was indeed those troublesome fellows from before who attracted the underworld great emperors here.
The many undead present also grew angry, realizing that these few people from the world of the living were nothing but troublemakers.
"Princess Yao." Suddenly, an undead looked towards Ning Muyao.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Ning Muyao interrupted the undead, coldly snorting as she spoke.
The other undead looked at her in astonishment. What did Princess Yao mean by this? Was she trying to protect those people from the world of the living?
Confusion filled the minds of the undead. This group of underworld great emperors had clearly come for those people from the world of the living. If they just handed over the others, their Undead Kingdom would no longer suffer attacks. What was there to hesitate about?
"Princess Yao, those people from the world of the living clearly..." The impatient Black-Robed Undead immediately spoke up, seemingly wanting to say something.
"Mm?" Ning Muyao turned her head and glanced at him, causing the Black-Robed Undead's voice to falter, and he immediately fell silent.
Seeing this scene, the many great emperors from the outside couldn't help but smirk. It seemed that this group of undead indeed had problems; those people from the world of the living should be here.
After hearing the address from the cold woman, many of the great emperors present felt a stir in their hearts.
A princess?
There was actually a princess among the undead; who could her father be?
Thinking of this, the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor stepped forward and coldly said to Ning Muyao, "Little girl, this emperor is the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor, one of the emperors of the four extremes of the underworld. I suppose you have heard of my name."
"This emperor won't waste words with you. Open the boundary and hand over the people from the world of the living, and your Undead Kingdom can remain safe and sound; otherwise... we have come here in numbers not to bicker with you."
The Five Peaks Underworld Emperor snorted coldly, and a terrifying peak great emperor's aura suddenly surged, violently crashing against the boundary ahead, causing a deafening roar.
The intense pressure caused the countless undead within the Undead Kingdom to change their expressions, their hearts filled with fear.
The emperor of the four extremes. This was a true giant that had governed the order of the Underworld for countless years. The undead clan had rampaged in the River of the Undead, unafraid even in front of the underworld great emperors, but they were still extremely wary of a true giant like the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor.
Ning Muyao shifted her gaze toward the nearby Emperor of Hidden Darkness and coldly said, "Emperor of Hidden Darkness, you have concealed your strength for many years, plotting against my Undead Kingdom. Finally, you have waited for this day. These fellows are your means to deceive and attack my Undead Kingdom today, right?"
Upon hearing this, the crowd frowned and looked towards the Emperor of Hidden Darkness.
What did this guy mean?
The Emperor of Hidden Darkness frowned, "I don't understand what you're saying. Yes, I have indeed punished some of your undead over the years while guarding the River of the Undead, but to pin this on me isn't fair, right?"
"Pinning blame?" Ning Muyao sneered, "You have secretly infiltrated and already taken control of parts of the River of the Undead. What you are doing today is nothing more than wanting to control my undead clan. What? Do you want to become the new Underworld Deity?"
The expressions of everyone present changed drastically, and they hurriedly looked at the Emperor of Hidden Darkness. He had taken control of parts of the River of the Undead; what was going on?
Under the gazes of the crowd, the Emperor of Hidden Darkness was left dumbfounded, his expression first frozen before he frowned and said with an ugly face, "I don't know what you're talking about." After speaking, he turned to the crowd and hastily said, "Everyone, this guy is deliberately trying to sow discord among us, wanting us to conflict with each other. If I truly had such great ambitions, why would I have remained guarding the River of the Undead for so long? I had already intervened back when competing for the position of the emperor of the four extremes."
