"I forbid it!"
However, at this moment, the Elf Goddess said coldly.
Her voice was not loud, but everyone present heard her words.
"Before the holy war begins, I will not allow any war to break out on the Continent of Origin! Therefore, none of you can start a war! Otherwise, you will be an enemy of me, the Goddess of Nature!"
The God of Annihilation, Jessyqionxi, immediately retorted, "What if we must fight? What can you do to us?"
"Become enemies. Moreover, you are already an ally of the Immortal and Demon Empire. We are already enemies."
The God of Silence, Xue Tu, had long disliked this goddess whom he had once defeated.
Therefore, he strongly agreed with what the God of Annihilation, Jessyqionxi, had said and immediately followed up with,
"What can you do now? Are you going to start a war with us?"
"Aren't you already involved in the war? What's the difference?"
The Elf Goddess was rendered speechless by the two evil gods and could not utter a word.
Xiao Mo, at this time, also strongly disagreed and said,
"Elf Goddess, have you forgotten what you promised me?"
"You clearly said that if the God of Annihilation, Jessyqionxi, and the God of Silence, Xue Tu, broke their pact, you would unhesitatingly stand by my side and deal with them."
"What about you now? What do you mean by this?"
Seeing that the Elf Goddess was about to say something, Xiao Mo gave her no chance and continued,
"Moreover, in our current situation, we have no choice but to fight. War is the best way to solve problems."
The Elf Goddess paled, shook her head, and said,
"No, war must not happen! If war breaks out, the losses will be devastating. How will I deal with the demon race from another world then?"
"Xiao Mo, you are the lord of the territory. You did not participate in the holy war tens of thousands of years ago, so you do not know the immense price we paid to drive the demon race from another world out of the continent!"
After saying this, she once again stared intently at the God of Annihilation, Jessyqionxi, and the God of Silence, Xue Tu, and said with great dissatisfaction,
"It is understandable that Xiao Mo, as a newcomer, does not know the horrors of the holy war."
"But what about the two of you?"
"As representatives of the evil gods, you have experienced that holy war. Do you not know how terrifying demons are?"
"Can't you just put aside your conflicts for a while?"
Upon hearing these words, the King of the Glorious Empire, Hesyadham, and the God of Annihilation, Jessyqionxi, showed hesitation.
Both of them had lived for a long time to reach the position of God Lord step by step.
Therefore, they had also experienced that holy war, which was terrifying to recall.
The God of Annihilation, Jessyqionxi, said with great internal conflict, "God of Silence, Xue Tu, why don't we..."
However, before he could finish, Xiao Mo's voice was heard.
"Wait a moment, Your Highness the Elf Goddess, I have something else to say."
"Do you think that even if we use the holy war as an excuse to prevent war now, we have already forged an irreconcilable enmity with the evil faction."
"How can you guarantee that if war breaks out, the evil faction won't interfere while we are fighting?"
"If the conflict is resolved then, wouldn't it lead to even greater losses?"
"Then why not resolve this matter properly now?"
Everyone present was shocked by Xiao Mo's words.
They were surprised because he was clearly advocating for war.
The Elf Goddess was also incredulous, as she thought Xiao Mo, like her, did not want war to break out.
She did not expect him to say this.
The God of Silence, Xue Tu, had already thought it through. He recalled the terrifying nature of demons and no longer wished for war.
He said, "Hmph! I will give the Elf Goddess face and will not start a war with you. I hope Xiao Mo, you will not be ungrateful and agree as well."
Xiao Mo didn't even look at him and continued to speak to the Elf Goddess,
"What do you think, Elf Goddess? Do you think we should fight this battle or not?"
After pondering Xiao Mo's words, the Elf Goddess found them very reasonable.
Thus, she hesitated for a moment and remained silent.
However, the God of Silence, Xue Tu, and the God of Annihilation, Jessyqionxi, no longer wanted to fight.
Compared to their hatred for Xiao Mo, they feared the demons' tactics more.
Especially the terrifying Demon Ten Sovereigns and the Dark Emperor.
Therefore, the God of Silence, Xue Tu, immediately said,
"We have decided not to fight now and will spare the Immortal and Demon Empire."
"But if the Immortal and Demon Empire is truly cowardly and afraid, I swear that when the holy war breaks out, I will put aside our grievances and will not attack the Immortal and Demon Empire."
The King of the Glorious Empire, Hesyadham, wanted to avoid fighting even more. If a war were to break out,
As an outsider, he would surely suffer great losses.
So he said, "Why don't we all take a step back? Let's not fight. Isn't it better for everyone to live in peace now?"
Upon hearing the King of the Glorious Empire, Hesyadham's words, everyone present felt disgusted.
They lamented,
"How dare this troublemaker say that? He is clearly one of the main instigators of this war."
The Elf Goddess also looked at Xiao Mo with hesitation, unable to make up her mind for a moment.
"Your Excellency, the Lord of the Immortal and Demon Empire, why don't we not fight? Lord God of Silence, Xue Tu, has already sworn an oath."
Xiao Mo smiled slightly, "Elf Goddess, have you forgotten? A few days ago, the God of Silence, Xue Tu, made the exact same oath in front of us."
"And the result was obvious."
