Lord of the Truth-Chapter 368 A Step Away From Death
"Alright boys let's not make this harder than it already is," Old Gu took two steps towards the table ?and then raised both hands and waved gently.
The words of the three emperors were between themselves and they did address anyone else, they were just talking
But for Billy, Caesar, and the rest, almost all of the three emperors' words were threats, pure and direct threats!
Especially Jabba and Amon began to sneak their soul sense into their sound rings and send messages to the Forces around the hill telling them to prepare to start a battle at any moment.
Aside from the three emperors who —if they helped each other— could most likely walk out of the hill alive even if a battle broke out, there were still 900 individuals at the peak of the Sage realm who came along with them, that is apart from the other 300 generals, elders, and high-ranking officials of the empire who came in surrendering.
This means there are around 1,200 sages that are currently surrounding the green hill right now and all of them are between levels 36~40!
The three emperors said that they came to see who Robin is for themselves and decide what they will do next, but their words now and the readiness of the forces coming with them say otherwise.
The problem is that the hosts will not accept any mockery, Robin has already declared that he may invade the rest of the empires later, so how come these people threaten them in the heart of their lands?
And the thing is.. they don't need to hear their threats silently.
Even with the presence of the three half-step Emperor Realm emperors, and the 1,200 high-level sages present, Billy and the rest still have enough confidence that they could eliminate most if a battle broke!
On top of the hill, the meeting taking place, and around it are the Sages of the four empires, but around them, there are tens of thousands of Saint-level demons and a few thousand Sage-level ones!!
Even if the individual strength greatly favored the Empire's forces, in an open battle, most of them wouldn't make it out of the hill alive.
If things continued like this then a major battle may break out in an instant, Everything would be decided even before Robin steps foot on the hill.
Old Gu could feel that something is building up and looked at Billy in a hurry, "Don't focus too much on their words. Please understand that they are, after all, Emperors, They are not used to respecting anyone. When His Excellency Robin appears, the serious talk will begin and everyone will know where they stand."
"His Excellency? Hmph." Water Empress Victoria looked at Old Gu with a gaze full of pride, "Isn't it enough that you have been standing on your feet as a butler since we came to this disgusting place, but you are also proud to call your enemy with that kind of title? The Mighty Flame Empire, tsk tsk~ It seems that your defeat was worse than I thought, even a previous emperor like you lost every iota of self-respect!"
Old Gu looked at her with a slight smile, "Now I am just a prisoner of war, how can I sit down? I have to wait for the verdict to be issued against me, I just realize my status... Secondly, what is the problem if I call him Excellency? If I don't respect him because of the brute force he showed in the war I will have to respect him for his innovations and for being such a unique person, one that our world has never seen before."
"Hmph, do whatever you want, as for me, I haven't seen anything that makes me respect him, and his strength won't do him any good against the Water Empire!" Empress Victoria looked away and spoke
Caesar spoke in a hostile tone, he could not restrain himself any longer from that woman who kept speaking ill of his father, "This is strange... His Excellency issued orders that you come to meet him in the ancestral continent within one year, and here you are now waiting for him to grace you with his arrival, Do you usually take orders from someone you do not respect?"
Victoria didn't say a word but suddenly waved her hand at Caesar in a cutting motion.
*swoosh*
*BAM*
"Alexander… let go… of my wrist…" Victoria spoke in a voice enveloped in a cold killing intent ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺
"Put your hand down then, let's hear from that Robin Burton then do whatever you want, until I achieve my goal of coming here I won't let you ruin the meeting." Wind Emperor Alexander spoke with a mischievous face
If he hadn't raised his hand in time to block Water Empress Victoria's attack, Caesar's head would most likely have fallen off his shoulders by now!
"Do what you want then, what does that have to do with me? this dog disrespected me and deserves to be punished!" Water Empress Victoria said again while looking at Caesar with an even more evident killing intent
"Punish him if the talks fall, not now, you are not home, you can't do what you want without consequences here. plus, killing a high executive before a peace-making meeting isn't very peaceful, isn't it?" Wind Emperor Alexander spoke with a focused gaze while strengthening his grip over the Water Empres's wrist even further, he was not taking No for an answer.
"Enn, I also want to hear what *His Excellency* had to say hehe." Sacred Tree Empress Elizabeth nodded twice
"Tch." Water Empress Victoria huffed, pulled her hand in an annoyed manner, and looked away again.
*Gulp*
Caesar swallowed his saliva, and a few grains of cold sweat began to fall from his forehead... He realized how close he was to Death.
Even Billy and the rest started to sweat profusely... Everything happened so quickly, so quickly that most of those present didn't know what had happened until they saw Wind Emperor Alexander grabbing Water Empress Victoria's wrist and started speaking.
Jabba, Sakar, and a few other Demon Kings could see Water Empress Victoria's hand moving but were unable to react before Wind Emperor Alexander grabbed her hand.
If her attack had been completed, they would all have attacked Victoria at the same time, If she had not died from their sudden attack, she would have been severely injured for sure, but Caesar would have been already...
After that incident, Wind Emperor Alexander closed his eyes again, Elizabeth returned to looking at nature around her, Victoria returned to looking at the surroundings coldly and hostilely, and Old Gu closed his eyes, placing both hands behind his back and looking at his feet calmly.
As for Billy, Jabba, and the rest, they remained seated on their nerves, their soul senses touching their rings, ready to mobilize support and summon their weapons at any moment.
No one uttered another word, all that was left of the peace in the air has vanished, leaving nothing but complete stiffness and lingering killing intent.
Even the birds and small animals fled from the entire area due to the enormous pressure from all the experts
A deadly silence struck the entire hill and lasted for another hour.
Until a faint voice came from the direction of the main chair, "Did I keep you waiting?"
