Deus backing Ethereal Phoenix Sect?!

"Yeah, that's right! I am also here to pay the Young Lord a visit."

"I hope the Ethereal Phoenix Sect Leader will report our arrival to the Young Lord!"

'This Ethereal Phoenix Sect isn't' simple…

The sudden and drastic change in the situation surprised Zhoran. At the same time, he secretly cursed all these two-faced bastards in his heart. Fortunately, he hadn't taken the initiative in attacking the Ethereal Phoenix Sect just then.

"..."

A dramatic scene played outside the Ethereal Phoenix Sect's gates. All the fierce people from the Sects, Dynasties, and Families that had come with an aggressive intent now showed amiable and kind smiles. Even the short-tempered Emperor of the Great Sun Dynasty, Hexon, was held back by the people around him.

If an outsider were to see the scene right now, they would think that all of them were fellows from the same family.

'Might is right — that's indeed the truth of this world!'

'As long as Helene can keep on receiving Young Lord's love, how is it possible for all these folk to not take a u-turn when they see me in the future?'

The Ethereal Phoenix Sect Leader thought in her heart. The sudden change in his adversaries excited her beyond measure, but on the surface, he still showed her proud and arrogant expression.

She was smart, and knew full well her place in the world.

If the Ethereal Phoenix Sect didn't have Deus backing them up today, then this bunch of wolves would have most certainly torn it apart. By the time they finished dealing with their Ethereal Phoenix Sect, they would be left tattered in ruins — robbed of their millenniums-deep heritage.

Not just her, but everyone in the Ethereal Phoenix Sect felt great awe and deep gratitude towards Deus. They knew full well who was responsible for eliciting such a response from all of these bigshots of the Thousand Mountains!

Deus could bring them to Heaven, and just as easily, he could topple them back to Hell, too!

"You must show your sincerity if you want to see Young Lord! Not just any tom, dick, and harry can gaze upon his divine visage."

Finishing her words, the Ethereal Phoenix Sect Leader sneered and turned into a ray of divine light, disappearing into the depths of the Ethereal Phoenix Sect. After all, all the bigshots had arrived, so the most urgent matter for her was to see if Young Lord would be willing to meet them.

That's just the way it was — after all, a fox could only exploit a tiger's might when the tiger itself willed for it.

It was for that purpose that the Ethereal Phoenix Sect Leader suddenly visited Deus's palace. Her report surprised Deus. he hadn't expected this old woman to posture in front of all the bigshots like that using his name.

However, Deus was too lazy to deal with such trivial matters, so he let the Ethereal Phoenix Sect Leader do whatever she wanted. Instead of the matter outside, he was more interested in the good play at hand.

Hopefully, Helene wouldn't let him down.

...

"Damn this, that Ethereal Phoenix Sect's too arrogant! I want to tear off that annoying smirk on his face…"

"She's just a bit lucky! What's so great about that?"

Many people uttered remarks full of rage outside the Ethereal Phoenix Sect, but in their hearts, they only held envy. Still, no one dared to break into the Ethereal Phoenix Sect anymore. Everyone could tell that the only reason the Ethereal Phoenix Sect's people dared to be so arrogant was that they had latched onto the thigh of that mysterious Young Lord.

It was enough to restraint them and show them that the Young Lord backing the Ethereal Phoenix Sect wasn't a random nobody.

If they accidentally provoked this beast, wouldn't they bring a disaster upon the forces behind themselves?

Of course, most of them held curiosity about the identity of this mysterious Young Lord. Especially the young heirs who followed the Elders of their Sects and Great Dynasties.

Among them, there were many men and women shrouded in divine lights, who had achieved great success in their cultivation.

On normal days, these young heirs prided themselves as the leaders of the Thousand Mountains' younger generation, but today, they received a great shock from what they saw.

A single, unknown young man had restrained so many major forces of the Thousand Mountains without even showing up.

"All of this is too unbelievable! Could that Young Lord be an existence from the Immortal State?"

A youth with bright, golden hair couldn't help but ask. He was the Holy Son of the Void Dragon Sect, who had tagged along his Elders to take part in today's battle to gain some experience and deepen his insights into his cultivation.(That's Deus identity for now to prevent any harm)

He had never expected to witness such a dramatic scene, so he couldn't help but subconsciously think the Young Lord came from the Immortal State.

After all, unlike remote regions like their Thousand Mountains, places like the Immortal State were famous for their outstanding people with great cultivation bases. They even had forces that had connections to the mythical Upper Realm. Their ancestors had once shattered the barrier and ascended, so their backgrounds were powerful beyond their imaginations.

"I don't think it's that simple. Although the powers in Immortal State are mighty, they aren't enough to make the Ethereal Phoenix Sect this arrogant!"

"Today's matter is absolutely not what we had expected…"

The Supreme Elder of the Void Dragon Sect, Zhoran, couldn't help but show an awkward smile. Although he had the demeanor of an Immortal as he floated in the air, even he didn't dare go anywhere near the Ethereal Phoenix Sect now. He could only wait outside their gate with respect, just like the others.

...

[Another palace in the Ethereal Phoenix Sect at this time.]

Deus's sudden departure stunned Helene for a while, and then she returned to the palace where she lived and cultivated.

She was distressed!

She couldn't help but rack her mind to think how she had offended Deus this time, so much so that he had directly left without saying a single word of complaint.

But even after straining her brain beyond its capacity, she couldn't figure out what wrong she had committed. In the end, she could only sigh and accept it as something Deus would do. After all, he was truly elusive, and no one could tell what went through his mind.

As for the great forces of the Thousand Mountains banding together against their Ethereal Phoenix Sect? Helene didn't even fret over that matter.

She knew of Deus's origin, and understood more than anyone else how terrifying his background was. As long as the forces at their door weren't senile, they would never attack the Ethereal Phoenix Sect while Deus was still staying in it.

They wouldn't dare in the future either.

**Bang**

While she thoughtthat, Deus was stabbed to death by the the Supreme Elder of the Void Dragon Sect, Zhoran.

//Detected Host is dead//

//Summoning another soul for the mission//

**The End**
