CHAPTER 1145: CHAPTER 356: AN UNFAIR DEBATE

This also made everyone look at the Wood God in a new light and truly accept the Wood God.

Because the Wood God was considering the Heavenly Court.

This showed the Immortals the sincerity and performance of the Wood God, and those who were originally doubtful of the Wood God now fully recognized his allegiance.

"Alright, Wood God, return and recuperate first, but don’t worry, I will certainly avenge you."

The Great Emperor Ziwei promised.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Wood God expressed his gratitude.

He also knew that he had been completely accepted by the Immortals of the Heavenly Court.

Returning to his own residence, the Wood God went into Closed-door Cultivation to heal his wounds.

At this moment, a figure appeared not far from Emperor Jun’s camp.

A cold smile hung on his face, and in the next moment, the earth rolled, and countless Earth Dragons instantly formed, pouncing towards Emperor Jun’s camp.

The Earth God revealed himself; unexpectedly, he had attacked Emperor Jun’s camp.

Emperor Jun was furious, striking with one hand and shattering hundreds of Earth Dragons.

Then his eyes fixated on the Earth God, filled with a fierce killing intent.

Emperor Jun was truly angered. Nowadays, any Tom, Dick, or Harry dared to lay hands on him.

He naturally recognized the Earth God, as he had once personally invited the Earth God out of seclusion, intending to recruit him into his own ranks.

However, the Earth God refused and did not agree.

But Emperor Jun didn’t expect that one day the Earth God would strike at him.

He truly had great audacity.

Ji Meng and others also rushed out, their eyes cold as ice.

Without needing Emperor Jun’s order, they immediately charged at the Earth God.

The Earth God retreated, instantly widening the distance, giving them no chance to surround him.

"Return."

Emperor Jun called out, his expression somewhat grim.

Though Ji Meng and others were somewhat reluctant, they still returned.

They glared at the Earth God, with cold flashes in their eyes.

If not knowing the opponent deliberately escaped and that they couldn’t easily catch up, they would have certainly pursued to kill the Earth God.

Ji Meng and others returned, but their eyes never left the Earth God.

Judging by their looks, it seemed they wouldn’t rest until the Earth God was gone.

Emperor Jun stared at the Earth God, coldly saying, "Earth God, there is no enmity between us, and I even greatly admire you. Why did you strike me?"

The Earth God grinned, looking helpless as he said, "Emperor Jun, my friend, I didn’t want to strike at you either, but since you targeted the Wood God, I had no choice but to do so."

"You have ties with the Wood God?"

Emperor Jun was somewhat surprised.

Unexpectedly, it was because of the Wood God; this Emperor Jun hadn’t anticipated.

At the same time, he deeply hated the Wood God, who left and yet brought such a big trouble to him.

The Earth God smiled faintly, looking helpless, "Though I don’t wish to admit it, the Wood God indeed saved my life."

Emperor Jun’s expression slightly softened.

No wonder the Earth God attacked them; the Wood God was his lifesaver.

Ji Meng and others nearly killed the Wood God, and if the Earth God did not strike, that would have been truly peculiar.

Emperor Jun shook his head, smiling wryly, "I didn’t expect you and the Wood God shared such a bond. Had I known, I wouldn’t have harmed the Wood God."

"Hehe."

The Earth God smiled faintly.

Emperor Jun stared at the Earth God, saying, "Earth God, I admire you, and today’s incident of you injuring my subordinates I won’t hold against you; you may leave."

The Earth God was somewhat surprised, not expecting Emperor Jun to be so agreeable.

However, he didn’t leave.

The Earth God stood at a distance, facing Emperor Jun directly, and chuckled, "I admire your broad-mindedness, my friend, but I have one more request. If you can agree to it, I assure you I will no longer strike at your subordinates."

"Speak."

Emperor Jun said calmly.

"Don’t harm the Wood God again, otherwise, today’s events will repeat."

The Earth God said calmly.

A cold flash appeared in Emperor Jun’s eyes, truly angering him.

In his view, he had already given the Earth God enough face because he indeed admired the Earth God.

But the Earth God seemed ungrateful, even negotiating terms, threatening him.

Emperor Jun’s expression slightly darkened, staring at the Earth God, blandly saying, "Earth God, I know your strength. Among the five elements, you are the strongest, but I believe you are not my match."

The Earth God did not deny it.

The level of a Heavenly Emperor’s power is not something everyone can reach.

Though he is powerful, he is nowhere near the level of a Heavenly Emperor, not even close.

Emperor Jun, being one of the strongest beneath the Three Pure Ones, the Earth God is naturally not a match.

"However, if you want to kill me, it won’t be that easy. If I want to leave, there are few who can stop me."

The Earth God said blandly.

This is his confidence.

The Earth God indeed couldn’t defeat Emperor Jun, but he could escape.

With his strength, if he couldn’t win, he could flee, and hardly anyone could capture him.

Emperor Jun also understood this point, his face darkening.

"If I aim to kill you, even if you evade, you will never be at peace."

The Earth God grinned, speaking lightly, "The same words go to you, my friend. If I lurk in the shadows, watching your subordinates, you won’t have peace either."

He, being fearless and powerful, uttered these words, causing Emperor Jun’s face to turn black.

Emperor Jun stared at the Earth God, coldly saying, "Must we escalate to this point?"

"Would you give up hunting the Wood God?"

The Earth God retorted.

Emperor Jun refused directly.

"Impossible to give up."

The Earth God smiled, said nothing, and turned to leave.

Watching the Earth God’s departing figure, Emperor Jun’s followers were all filled with murderous intent.
