"Exactly, exactly, otherwise, this would be too outrageous."
While many gods had gone to spectate when the Evil Faction besieged the Immortal and Demon Empire that day, the vast majority of gods remained in their own domains and did not witness the events. Thus, they were unaware of these happenings.
At this moment, someone immediately said, "Of course, it's true news. I personally saw the sovereign of the Immortal and Demon Empire become a God Lord that day."
"And they were incredibly powerful, managing to severely beat down the sovereign of the Glorious Empire!"
"The scene was incredibly spectacular; it's a huge loss if you missed it!"
"That's right, the sovereign of the Immortal and Demon Empire has indeed reached the God Lord level and is exceptionally formidable."
"It's not just him; the God Lords around him are also particularly powerful."
"There are several who have already reached the God Lord level!"
"Is that true!? Didn't I recall that the Lord of that territory only arrived on the Primordial Continent a month ago?"
"They've developed so quickly!"
"If what you're saying is true, then the Evil Faction is going too far."
"At a time when manpower is desperately needed, the Immortal and Demon Empire has finally managed to develop."
"And gained several gods capable of resisting the demon races from other worlds. Yet, they still targeted the Immortal and Demon Empire so fiercely. Are their eyes only on their personal grudges?"
At this point, the indigenous gods were strongly condemning the Evil Faction, expressing their disgust.
In an instant, almost all gods spontaneously began to dislike the evil gods.
However, the evil gods who emerged, originally intending to discuss matters with other pantheons, were met with disdain from the gods they encountered. Even when they tried to greet them with smiles, gods with whom they previously had good relations cast them a dismissive glance and walked away without looking back.
The evil god who was given the cold shoulder was utterly bewildered. Why had their good friends suddenly become like this?
Initially, he thought it was an isolated incident. However, when he sought help from other gods, he discovered that all of them were exceedingly indifferent to him.
Only then did he realize that someone was targeting him.
After inquiring with other evil gods of his kind, he found out that they were all experiencing the same situation: they were detested by others, and many gods were unwilling to associate with them.
Subsequently, they discovered that these gods were aware that the rumors and slanders against Xiao Mo had originated from the Evil Faction.
Moreover, the Elf Goddess had now declared her stance, fully siding with the Immortal and Demon Empire.
This was why these gods had spontaneously sided against them, the evil gods.
It had to be said that the Natural Goddess, the Elf Goddess, possessed immense influence.
She hadn't done much; she had merely expressed her attitude, and all the gods had consciously aligned themselves with her.
Many evil gods found themselves being shunned by other gods at this time.
Furthermore, the current situation was already dire, and many evil gods were seeking the assistance of other deities.
However, this incident had occurred, and many evil gods felt enraged.
They felt deeply wronged, believing they hadn't done anything excessive.
Or they were completely unaware of the actions of the God of Doom, Jesse Qiongxi, and the God Lord of Annihilation, Xue Tu. Yet, they were being condemned as a whole by the other gods.
Therefore, in their indignation and sense of injustice, they harbored resentment towards their leader, God Lord of Annihilation Xue Tu.
Among them, some even felt that what the God of Doom, Jesse Qiongxi, and the God Lord of Annihilation Xue Tu had done was going too far.
In this grave situation, they had stirred up trouble.
This was a complete disregard for the overall picture, with their eyes only on their personal affairs.
Some of the more senior evil gods within the Evil Faction began to harbor dissatisfaction towards the God Lord of Annihilation Xue Tu.
Occasionally, during high-level meetings convened by the God Lord of Annihilation Xue Tu, they would make sarcastic remarks.
The God Lord of Annihilation Xue Tu was furious, but given the current grim circumstances, he was unwilling to deal with these stubborn old fools immediately.
He could only seethe with anger.
However, knowing that Xiao Mo was the source of all this, he harbored even deeper resentment towards Xiao Mo.
He even felt that the Elf Goddess was more detestable and secretly vowed to make them pay.
Yet, he also felt some dissatisfaction with the God of Doom, Jesse Qiongxi, as this "brilliant" idea had come from him.
And he had entrusted this matter to the God of Doom, Jesse Qiongxi.
To his dismay, not only had they failed to harm Xiao Mo, but their reputation had also plummeted to new depths.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the God of Doom, Jesse Qiongxi, angrily smashed a cup.
He harshly berated his subordinates, "What exactly did you do? How did they so easily track your movements?"
"A bunch of useless idiots! Utterly worthless!"
Within the grand and majestic palace, gods knelt on the ground, trembling under the reprimand of the God of Doom, Jesse Qiongxi.
Yet, deep down, they still felt somewhat wronged.
They had actually been as careful as possible, but they couldn't withstand the scrutiny of so many gods simultaneously!
This was why they had been exposed within a mere few hours.
"Your Excellency, God Lord of Doom Jesse Qiongxi, please forgive our ignorance!"
However, as soon as their plea ended, they were kicked away by the God of Doom, Jesse Qiongxi.
"Get lost! Don't spout such nonsense here!"
With the great war looming, the God of Doom, Jesse Qiongxi, was also extremely busy.
Although they were classified as "evil," their combat capabilities were nowhere near those of the demon races from other worlds.
During the last Holy War, the reason they were able to survive on a large scale was because they acted like scared turtles, building their fortresses to be extremely sturdy, and all their gods refused to go outside.
Thus, they had managed to preserve most of their strength in the previous Holy War.
Over the subsequent hundreds of thousands of years, they had gradually grown, eventually becoming one of the strongest pantheons on the Primordial Continent.
Therefore, whether it was the Evil Faction or the Vanished Pantheon, they were no different from the other gods on the Primordial Continent.
They all felt immense fear regarding this impending Holy War.
Time was now extremely tight, and the God of Doom, Jesse Qiongxi, was frantically reinforcing their fortresses.
He intended to repeat their strategy from last time, to play the role of a shrinking turtle, let others make the first move, and then hide to conserve their strength.
However...
A hint of sadness crossed the face of the God of Doom, Jesse Qiongxi. Now that he had become a God Lord, he wondered if he could still escape unscathed...
