691: Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals.

"Nezha, ah..."

"You said you wouldn't go easy."

"But you still gave me a hint."

"You really... I'm crying."

Qin Yang laughed in his heart.

Nezha wouldn't go easy in a fight, but that didn't mean he wouldn't give hints in other ways.

The words he just spoke seemed like a threat.

In reality, they revealed an important piece of information.

The Haotian Pagoda could allow Heavenly Gods to possess one hundred percent of their combat power.

This meant that as long as the Haotian Pagoda was destroyed, his chances of winning would greatly increase.

Of course, Qin Yang wouldn't destroy the Haotian Pagoda.

At least not before acquiring the "All-Things Deconstructor" profession.

If he couldn't become the Human Emperor, what was the point of even winning against Nezha?

Moreover, what if it was one hundred percent combat power?

Nezha had one hundred percent combat power, Li Jing had one hundred percent combat power, and Giant Spirit God had one hundred percent combat power.

Didn't Yang Jian on my side also have it?

Didn't the Four Heavenly Kings also have it?

Thinking of this, Qin Yang vigorously waved the human emperor banner, beginning to call for reinforcements.

In an instant, Qin Yang, who was initially accompanied by only ten Dragons, also had a vast lineup appear behind him.

The human emperor banner swayed in the wind, and rolling black clouds rose from it.

The Four Heavenly Kings, whose bodies were entwined with black Qi and whose figures were massive, along with the three demons of Lion Camel Ridge, emerged from within like descending Demon Gods.

At the same time, a purple vortex unfolded in the sea of lava and fire below Qin Yang.

The vortex rapidly spread, and the figures of the Four Asura Kings slowly rose from within it.

Finally, the golden gate connecting to the Human Emperor Domain opened.

Yang Jian, clad in white robes and holding a Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade, slowly floated out, leading his Howling Celestial Dog.

Behind him, there was also a shadow that blotted out the sky.

That was the quasi-Human Emperor, Lord of War Chi You, wielding the Axe of Creation.

Seeing this scene, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li was directly stunned.

I understand the Four Heavenly Kings.

I also understand the three demons of Lion Camel Ridge.

Even the quasi-Human Emperor, Lord of War Chi You, I can still understand.

It's just... "Yang Jian! You are the nephew of the Heavenly Emperor, are you also rebelling!!!"

Li Jing glared at Yang Jian, questioning him loudly.

However, Nezha, who was beside him, said with a playful expression, "Old man, what's so strange about this? A nephew rebelling against his uncle is a characteristic of their family."

Hearing this, Yang Jian's eyebrow twitched, and he said, "Lotus root spirit, don't bring up old scores."

"Are you already triggered?"

"You don't have to say, but you have to promise me one thing."

Nezha shouldered his Fire-tipped Spear and said, "Today, I want to have a one-on-one fight with the Human Emperor. Don't interfere."

Then, Nezha pointed his thumb at Li Jing behind him and said, "That old man and Giant Spirit God, I'll leave them to you."

Yang Jian looked at Li Jing, cupped his hands, and said, "Heavenly King Li, apologies."

As soon as his voice fell, the vertical eye on Yang Jian's forehead suddenly opened, shooting a golden light towards the pagoda in Li Jing's hand!

Li Jing's expression was horrified. He immediately raised his hand and covered the pagoda with his cloak.

The golden light directly pierced through the cloak but did not hit the pagoda; it only struck his waist hard.

"Yang Jian! You actually launched a sneak attack!"

Li Jing clutched his waist in pain,

almost dropping the pagoda in his hand.

Nezha, on the other hand, looked regretful and complained to Yang Jian, "So useless."

Yang Jian shrugged, smiling somewhat awkwardly, "Your father's vigilance is too high."

"Father?"

Nezha shook his head, "I have long since returned my flesh to my mother and my bones to my father; our grievances are settled."

With that, he looked back at Li Jing and said, "That pagoda in his hand, that's my father."

"Then it means we don't have to hold back when we fight, right?" Yang Jian nodded.

"None of us should hold back."

Nezha grinned, then looked at Qin Yang, raising his Fire-tipped Spear and pointing it at him.

"Human Emperor! Come on~~~~ Fight!"

"Zha'er! They have many people and great power, you must not be too...

Boom!

Flames bloomed like a giant lotus covering the sky.

Nezha cast aside Li Jing's warning and the hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers, transforming into a red cloud that swept towards Qin Yang.

"Can you hold them off?"

Facing Nezha's world-destroying fire, Yang Jian looked at Qin Yang.

Qin Yang had already put away the human emperor banner, drawn his shangfang sword, and said with a smile, "Soldier against soldier, general against general. We'll endure it head-on."

"Where are the soldiers?"

Yang Jian asked.

In front, Li Jing and Giant Spirit God had already led the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals.

Their Aura was overwhelming, like a silver net covering the sky and earth.

Yang Jian had once commanded Heavenly Soldiers and Generals and was well aware of their strength.

These fellows, seemingly mere soldiers, were all Heavenly Gods who had attained the Dao.

Beneath their standardized Heavenly Court armor, they possessed an endless array of methods.

If he were deeply entangled among them, he might not be fully prepared for the Heavenly Court's schemes.

That's right.

Given his understanding of the Heavenly Court.

It was impossible for them not to play dirty tricks.

Yang Jian himself was such a person.

With his meticulous mind, he was not concerned about Li Jing and Giant Spirit God; he was more worried about the interference of these hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers.

"Will I be short on soldiers?"

Qin Yang smiled, pointing his shangfang sword towards the sky.

Instantly, countless Imperial City Guards, clad in golden armor, appeared out of thin air between the heavenly fire and lava, sweeping towards the hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals like locusts.

"I will have a good time with Nezha."

"The Four Heavenly Kings and the three demons of Lion Camel Ridge, I've entrusted them all to your command."

After summoning the Imperial City Guard, Qin Yang had already soared into the sky.

Finally, he reminded Yang Jian, "Li Jing isn't foolish; he will definitely guard against the Four Heavenly Kings' Hun Yuan Umbrella. As for whether Nezha can switch sides during the battle, that's up to your performance."

"You should first hold off Nezha; he's very fierce, and besides, you're not yet the Human Emperor..."

Yang Jian said worriedly.

Qin Yang was not yet the Human Emperor. To have him, a Mortal, contend against a Heavenly God was indeed a bit difficult.

"Don't worry, I'll call for my parents."

Qin Yang replied indifferently.

"Parents?"

As Yang Jian was wondering, he felt a strong gust of wind behind him.

Turning his head, he saw that the quasi-Human Emperor behind him, Lord of War Chi You, had already soared into the sky with Qin Yang, meeting the rolling red cloud.

"The 'parents' he mentioned, it couldn't be..."

Yang Jian was suddenly startled.

He recalled that when Qin Yang ascended the throne, he had summoned successive emperors after King Zhou.

The 'parents' he spoke of should still be these people.

But these people might not necessarily be able to deal with Nezha.

Unless... Yang Jian looked at the figure of Lord of War Chi You and thought, "Unless he invites the successive Human Emperors... that would be a big deal..."
