Chapter 375: Are You Threatening Me?

The dark creatures did not belong to this world. If they wanted to escape this calamity, they would have to return to their original world.

However, that alone was not enough. They would have to completely destroy the spatial passageway they had painstakingly built. Otherwise, if the passageway was left behind, there was no guarantee it would not catch the attention of the experts in this world. If those experts could utilize it, they might even be able to launch a counterattack directly into the dark creatures’ world.

At that time, the fate of the dark creatures would likely be just as dire.

“Haha…” Marquis Champion let out a cold laugh and shook his head upon hearing this. “Shang Zhou, aren’t you underestimating us too much? Our power goes far beyond your imagination.”

“But you cannot represent all dark creatures!” Shang Zhou responded. “Moreover, you’ve said it yourself – the dark creatures are not united. If they find out that the experts in this world have descended into yours because of you…”

Here, Shang Zhou paused, looking at Marquis Champion mockingly. As soon as he said this, the other’s expression turned even uglier.

The dark creatures were dominant now because they could cross between worlds freely, while the living beings of this world could not find their lair. But if that changed, everything would be different.

The experts of this world feared the dark creatures. How could the dark creatures not fear the experts of this world? After all, compared to them, the cultivation speed of the living beings in this world was extremely astonishing. A Saint Realm powerhouse only needed a thousand years to fully grow up. To the dark creatures, this was almost inconceivable. In their world, it took at least ten thousand years for a saint to appear!

In other words, in the same amount of time, the number of experts that had emerged in this world was almost five times more than theirs! If not for the difficulty in killing them, the dark creatures probably would have been completely annihilated countless years ago.

“Are you threatening me?” said Marquis Champion, instantly enraged. His aura erupted like a volcano, spreading out powerfully. The entire hall trembled as if it would collapse.

Outside the main hall, countless divine patterns flickered erratically, as if they could shatter at any moment. This scene made the guards outside feel very uneasy.

The army was about to arrive outside the Imperial City, yet it seemed just as chaotic inside… In recent days, people were sentenced to the extermination of their entire families almost daily, from a marquis at first to Duke of the Fiery today. No one knew who the butcher’s blade would fall upon tomorrow.

“I’m not threatening you, just simply stating facts,” said Shang Zhou. “You now have no other choice but to continue working with me.”

He revealed a casual smile as if having the other party firmly in his grasp. However, this expression was seen as a provocation in the eyes of Marquis Champion. At this moment, he wished he could crush Shang Zhou’s head.

The Dashang Emperor, whom they had once supported with their own hands, was now scheming against them at this very moment. This person’s ambition was truly immense, and they were all somewhat caught off guard. If they had known Shang Zhou would be like this, they would have supported someone else.

“Whether to cooperate with me or not, you can decide for yourselves,” said Shang Zhou. “Most of the major forces of the East Barrens have yet to fully arrive. You still have time to return to your own world and thoroughly destroy the spatial passage.”

He stared unblinkingly at the other party and spoke casually. His words carried unparalleled confidence. He was almost certain the other would not leave so easily. After all, establishing a spatial passage was no simple feat. Moreover, the passage in the Dashang Empire was on the verge of complete stabilization. After some time, it would be stable enough to support Saint Realm experts crossing over.

To force them to give up completely at this point would be even more unbearable than killing them.

“Are you confident you can withstand so many experts?” asked Marquis Champion slowly. However, before Shang Zhou could reply, he added, “You must know, even if you can fend off so many people today, no one can guarantee those quasi-emperors will not make a move in the future!”

The stronger Dashang appeared, the more wary others would become. What was such a powerful force doing by cooperating with dark creatures? Could they be trying to destroy the entire world? When some undying old monsters saw this, they would naturally nip Dashang in the bud to avoid endless trouble.

“Don’t worry,” Shang Zhou said with a smile. “I’m 100 percent sure I can bury all these people here!”

Not just bury them… but you as well! Shang Zhou silently added in his heart.

The two sides were still cooperating. At this stage, he still needed the dark creatures to delay the outside experts and buy him time. With the abilities of dark creatures, one could hold back several peers. Those powers wanting to destroy Dashang might not gain anything in a short time.

“What exactly is your trump card?” asked Marquis Champion, narrowing his eyes slightly. He restrained some of his killing intent, but the wariness in his heart did not diminish. After the previous events, he no longer believed he could trust Shang Zhou.

He had firmly decided that as long as they weathered this storm, they would find a way to completely free themselves of Shang Zhou and search for a new spokesperson in the East Barrens or elsewhere.

“My trump card…” said Shang Zhou indifferently, glancing at him, “has to do with a Great Emperor Realm powerhouse!”

“Oh?” The dark creature’s eyes lit up upon hearing this as he looked deeply at Shang Zhou. He did not expect that this typically low-key Shang Zhou would actually have ties to a Great Emperor Realm powerhouse.

As far as he knew, none of Dashang’s ancestors had ever reached the Great Emperor Realm. The strongest existence had only been at the Great Saint Realm. Yet today, a trump card related to a great emperor appeared in Shang Zhou’s hands! This made his worries dissipate quite a bit.

After all, whether in their world or the current one, the words “great emperor” were synonymous with invincibility! Even a single drop of their blood could slay countless experts.

However, he had overlooked one thing. While great emperors were indeed powerful, each had a different temperament. Some dedicated themselves to protecting the common people, some enjoyed roaming freely, and some would stop at nothing to gain strength!

And Shang Zhou had not specified just now which great emperor his trump card was connected to….
