"What do these bastards want to do?"

As star officials, they are intimately familiar with the military formations those below have set up, but for the first time in years, they feel targeted by that formation!

"Are you courting death?" The Spiritual Body of Jishui Leopard from the Azure Dragon Star Palace appeared behind him, and a powerful pressure burst out instantly, carrying murderous intent.

These blind bastards dare to bare their teeth at them?

It seems that some need to be killed before they recognize their might.

Faced with that all-too-familiar pressure, all the lower-level Divine Generals hesitated not at all; the military formation erupted, and the powerful force of blood and qi instantly enveloped the opposing pressure, forcing several Star Officials back ten thousand feet!

This situation made the Star Officials feel both immense anger and a trace of fear!

These guys, it seems they really intend to keep them out....

This cannot happen, they returned immediately but missed the best opportunity for a breakout, and if they can’t get in, another breakout attempt would be risky.

With this influence, more Great Demons are surrounding them, and if this continues.

.. they might even be caught in the middle, attacked from both sides!

"Are you trying to rebel?" Jishui Leopard stepped forward and roared angrily, "You better think wisely, what price for rebelling against Heaven’s Court?"

"General..." The leading Divine General in the formation looked coldly at the opponent, "I want to know one thing, just half a day ago the Transmission Array of the Twenty-Eight Constellations was activated, and collapsed in less than an hour, were we left behind to cover the retreat by you generals?

Is this how generals treat their fellow soldiers left behind? "

"Presumptuous!!" Jishui Leopard first barked, but then glanced at the opposing formation’s power and all the cold eyes of the Divine Generals, knowing in his heart that mere pressure would not let these bastards let him through.

First stabilize them, and once inside, without the formation’s cohesion, there will be ways to slowly show these lowly creatures his might!

"This was Lord Heavenly Emperor’s instruction before the incident.

We Star Officials were to return to the Twenty-Eight Constellations immediately to guard the outer lines, while the Four Heavenly Kings’ Army broke through to distract demons.

You were to stay here to revive the Array once it had the chance.

Now the Array has clearly revived, proving Lord Heavenly Emperor’s wisdom. Yet you doubt us, you are heartless!"

"Jishui Leopard Star Official speaks truth." A nearby slender woman with a veiled face spoke softly, "Everything we do is by decree. We risked as much upon venturing out, if not more than you, and without us luring the enemy, could you people hold this breach?"

The group of Divine Generals hesitated, with peculiar expressions. They had never noticed before how good these bastards were at twisting the truth. No wonder they held such positions; had they not known beforehand that this was all Chen Qing’s plan, they might have believed them.

The Divine General sighed with bitter amusement, "I’ve been in Heaven’s Court for fifty-four million years, ordered to crusade against Outer Demons over one hundred forty-seven thousand times, slaying countless demons.

Heaven’s Court has bestowed great favors, yet I’ve never felt undeserving of the protection all these years.

My clan nearly pledged allegiance completely back then; how many remain now? "

"But your faces, Star Official, they have never changed. All these years, you occupy the positions, while the risk of battle always falls to us. Initially expecting you in crucial moments, reality shows you flee faster than anyone."

Jishui Leopard frowned, wanted to speak, but saw the opponent had already raised a spear pointed at him, filled with murderous determination.

"My brother Lin Kun is a precious bloodline of our Leopard clan, possessing Illusion Mist Divine Ability that even I don’t have.

He’s dead, died just half a day ago. I recall distinctly his last call to me upon successfully entering the Transmission Array, supposed to have reached the Star Palace where the elders were. So where is he now?"

Jishui Leopard froze, then his face turned somewhat unpleasant.

To avoid trouble, those non-bloodline demon soldiers were all exterminated by them, and their Blood Essence Stones extracted!

"He.... In the urgency, your brother unfortunately died in battle. I’m truly sorry, but you are Heavenly Soldiers, which is part of your duty, dying honorably on the battlefield!"

"Unfortunately died?" The opponent laughed bitterly at these words, "Does Star Official think I’m a fool? Can’t even recognize my brother’s Blood Essence?"

Upon these words, Jishui Leopard’s face immediately twisted with fury!

"Our clan, for Heaven’s Court, how many have died?

My brother was ever loyal, followed every order from Star Officials endlessly.

When demons invaded, others hid in fear, while he immediately sought to join you, aiming to protect the Star Officials.

Yet the result was becoming Blood Essence Stone by those he wished to protect! "

"Even mortal farmers treat their guard dogs kindly, granting them a burial place when they die. But my poor brother, in the eyes of Star Officials, is probably worse than a dog!"

"And what of it?" Jishui Leopard retorted in anger and shame when exposed, "You lowly creatures, without my master’s benevolence, you’d still be out scavenging in Outer Space, boasting authority in Heaven’s Court?

All these years, what life have you lived?

Without Heaven’s Court, do you deserve wearing this armor? "

"What you owe Heaven’s Court, even if commanded to die, you should not hesitate, yet dare to rebel?

Let me tell you, don’t think holding this breach you’ll overturn authority, this grand formation of Heaven’s Court isn’t within your control.

Without Heaven’s Court’s protection, your Spiritual Bodies will be devoured by tens of thousands of ghosts after death, and your relatives and clan the same! !"

The ugly face revealed caused no surprise; they understood their superiors’ nature over many years. If unsure, they’d have lived in vain.

"Whether that’ll be our end, doesn’t require Star Official’s concern. Best worry if extraterritorial demons devour you whole, whether your Spiritual Body will remain intact, if you can endure on your Path of Yin Yang until your so-called allies aid you?"

The cold words left a group of star officials in fury, but upon turning around, suddenly their blood froze.

At some point, a great number of Great Demons had gathered behind them, possibly dozens of Demon King-level entities. If not breaking out now, they might indeed become blood meals for these demons!!

Finally, panic rose among some.

"Let us in, we guarantee no harm. Given the current situation, you see, without us, you find it difficult to hold, right?"

"It’s actually not difficult..." a faint voice sounded.

All the Star Officials’ pupils shrank in realization; these creatures, did they really... sell out to outsiders!
