However, if you fail to complete the task on time, then not to mention any private plotting for personal gain, even if you did nothing, you will still need to be punished.

Everything is thus fair and reasonable; for them, it's entirely acceptable to manage public and private matters without conflict.

The current Fire Virtue Star Lord is just like that. Emperor Monarch commanded him to stop those Great Ancient Emperors; instigating a dispute on purpose is nothing, as long as he can finish his task of obstruction, all will be well.

But if in the end he fails, unable to stop those two Great Ancient Emperors, allowing the adversaries to break through, even if he did not disturb the guiding task, he would still have the demerit of being ineffective.

“Emperor Monarch, surely Fire Virtue Star Lord dares to act this way because he must have ample confidence; there's no need to worry,” Star Lord Yi Suan said with a smile.

Having long heard of Fire Virtue Star Lord's great reputation, he naturally knew about his personality. Daring to do so at such a critical moment, he must have enough confidence.

“This Emperor also believes that his actions are not without a target,” Pei Xuanjing nodded lightly, unconcerned.

About the strength of the Fire Virtue Star Lord, he was most understanding. Originally, when the Fire Virtue Star Lord had not yet recovered to the Immortal Path Realm, perhaps countering an Emperor-level powerful being was his limit, but after Pei Xuanjing helped him to refine the Fire Spirit Bead, two mere Great Emperors were nothing to speak of.

Even in Pei Xuanjing's eyes, having a Divine Artifact he had helped refine, if the current Fire Virtue Star Lord couldn't suppress those two Great Ancient Emperors, then it would be a great disappointment to him.

Therefore, rather than worry about Fire Virtue Star Lord, it's better to worry about the other three Star Lords.

After all, these three Star Lords have not yet set foot in the Immortal Path; even with their Magic Swords, in Pei Xuanjing's view, they could contend with a Great Ancient Emperor, at most delay two for a short time, and with one more, they would surely collapse.

“Emperor Monarch, do we need to provide support?” Earth Virtue Star Lord voluntarily stepped forward to offer his services.

At this moment, apart from Fire Virtue Star Lord's confrontation, the remaining three sword-wielding Star Lords nearly simultaneously erupted into conflict, the might they displayed with the Magic Swords not inferior to the Great Ancient Emperors.

But with the vision of these Star Lords, they naturally could also see that this was only temporary and wouldn't last long.

When the Earth Virtue Star Lord volunteered, besides wanting to take the opportunity to test his skills against a Great Ancient Emperor, he was also worried about being reported for previously complaining in private about the tight schedule for constructing the Guiding Altar.

“Whether you act as a strategy or not, having this Emperor alone is sufficient to hold this place!” Pei Xuanjing nodded his head, indicating they should go help.

The Guiding Altar is of the utmost importance; however, with Pei Xuanjing there, it is enough. If there really is someone whom even Pei Xuanjing can't stop, then they would be meaningless to remain here.

The several Star Lords nodded in agreement and each set off in a direction to support the other three Star Lords.

In the other three directions, besides Superior Life Star Lord who was facing only one Great Ancient Emperor, the other two were facing two Great Ancient Emperors each.

Even though they wielded Magic Swords bestowed by Pei Xuanjing, facing two Great Ancient Emperors still put them under immense pressure, as after all, they were merely Supreme Overlords, not inherently True Immortals like the Fire Virtue Star Lord.

However, at this moment, when each received the support of another Star Lord, the pressure was immediately reduced. One Star Lord contained one Great Ancient Emperor, and the other took offensive initiative, immediately eliminating the danger of collapse.

“They've actually started at this time!” exclaimed the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, within the Holy Land of Wind and Thunder, looking surprised.

The other Great Ancient Emperors might not know what's happening inside the heavenly gate at the moment, but having previously had a profound exchange with the Emperor of Longevity at Myriad Laws Mountain, how could he not know what the people of the heavenly gate are currently up to?

He originally thought that the plans of the heavenly gate would still need time to wait, but unexpectedly, it started so quickly, greatly surpassing his own plans.

“It seems I can't wait any longer; I must make a decision now!” The Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder said with a wry smile, feeling the weight of the moment.

He had wanted to consider the situation a bit longer before deciding, but the actions of the heavenly gate let him know he didn't have much more time to continue delaying.

“`
After all, the matters of the Heavenly Gate have now aroused the curiosity of other Great Ancient Emperors, and it's clear that the people of the Heavenly Gate have already clashed with the Emperors who went there.

The Heavenly Gate is no longer compromising, and if we wait for the strong ones from Heavenly Court to descend, the strength of the Heavenly Gate will increase further and they will be even less willing to compromise.

One must know that although the Emperor of Longevity spoke well, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder was also aware that all this was based on the premise that the strength of both parties is roughly equal. If there's a significant disparity in strength between the two sides, then all promises become meaningless.

There really isn't much time to waste now; it's time to make a choice, at least to strengthen the power in one's hands in order to handle more situations.

“Actually, the decision had been made the moment this seat stepped out of Myriad Laws Mountain, but it was left unspoken, just deceiving oneself and others!” the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder said with self-mockery the moment he stepped out of the great hall.

Originally, upon his return from Myriad Laws Mountain, he didn't want to meet the other Great Ancient Emperors, using the excuse that he hadn't made a decision and seeking to delay for three months, telling himself he needed to consider carefully.

But now, when his plans were suddenly disrupted by the actions of the Heavenly Gate, he realized that decisions are actually made in the first instant, and the hesitation in people comes from a fear of facing their own hearts and looking before and after.

“Who is still here in the Holy Land now?” the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder asked his disciple.

“Reporting to my master, some of the Great Ancient Emperors who came that day have left, and five Great Ancient Emperors remain in the Holy Land, waiting for the news of your emergence from seclusion,” replied the disciple of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder with respect.

As for his master's promise to be in retreat for three months, the disciple wasn't surprised that he emerged early, for it was clear that the reason for his seclusion was related to the Heavenly Gate.

The commotion caused by the Heavenly Gate made his master's emergence seem natural; in fact, it would have been surprising if he had not emerged.

“Which Great Ancient Emperors are they?” asked the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder with curiosity.

Given his Realm, he could easily probe the strength of the powerful figures within the Holy Land of Wind and Thunder.

But since he had already declared he would be in seclusion, even if there were Great Ancient Emperors present, he couldn't probe them, lest they detect it and he becomes the subject of mockery.

“Void Ancient Emperor, Star Emperor, Blood Emperor, Devouring Sky Emperor, Calamity Saint Lord,” his disciple replied respectfully.

Birds of a feather flock together. As supreme beings standing at the pinnacle, only those of the same peak standing could be friends or rivals to the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder.

The Great Ancient Emperors and Saint Lords who remain here are each powerful, and even if there are disparities in their strength and realms, they all wield extremely powerful Laws and possess formidable battle power.

So, it was them. No look of surprise appeared on the face of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder. He had only so many friends, so he could more or less guess who they were.

“Invite those five Great Ancient Emperors to the great hall and tell them this seat has important matters to discuss with them,” said the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder.

“This disciple understands!”

Immediately after, he set out to invite the other Great Ancient Emperors.

What a coincidence it was that although these Great Ancient Emperors had stayed in the Holy Land of Wind and Thunder, they were also attracted by the momentum coming from the Heavenly Gate. There was no doubt this increased their curiosity about what the Heavenly Gate intended to do, as well as the experiences of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder at Myriad Laws Mountain.

Gathering together, these Great Ancient Emperors were discussing whether to request the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder to come out of seclusion once again.

After all, the three months they agreed to wait were originally for the matters of the Heavenly Gate and now that the situation had changed, they naturally could not just continue waiting.

At that moment, they received the message that the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder wished to see them, and their faces showed varying expressions.
