Luo Tiance's expression was a complex mix of emotions.
There was anger, heartache, confusion, but above all, hatred.
"You actually betrayed your own family, betrayed your own country!!!!"
"Zhao Yingtian, I truly didn't expect you to be the traitor."
"Hahaha."
The leaders of the five major powers, as well as the trio of ambushers, all had smug smiles on their faces.
Zhao Yingtian stood there holding a long spear, with a cold expression.
"I did not betray my country, nor did I betray my family."
"You're full of shit."
Luo Tiance cursed foully, no matter how despicable the enemy's schemes were, he had never been so enraged.
What he could not accept was betrayal from within.
Zhao Yingtian said, "Luo Tiance, do you think Our Great Xia can hold out?"
"If you insist on resisting to the end, every last one of Great Xia's bloodlines will be extinguished."
"If we choose to cooperate with these foreign forces, our bloodlines, our status can be preserved."
"For the sake of their faith, they won't harm the Citizens of Daxia."
"To rule over so many people, they themselves are not enough, they need our help."
Upon hearing these words, Luo Tiance's eyes were full of disbelief.
He couldn't believe that this old battle companion of many years would say such inconceivable things.
What kind of twisted logic was this?
"People of Great Xia would rather die standing than live on their knees, to live at the mercy of others is no different from being dead."
Zhao Yingtian shook his head: "I think survival is more important; a wise man submits to the times."
"Only by doing this can Great Xia continue."
"To have the family's bloodline continue."
"I absolutely won't allow a family that has lasted for thousands of years be extinguished just like that."
Luo Tiance shouted, "You're crazy!"
"What do you know?" Zhao Yingtian yelled back, "Luo Tiance, you're not the right person to control Great Xia."
"Too inflexible, no understanding of adapting to change."
The other major powers' leaders watched the scene with great interest, feeling secretly pleased.
"Zhao Yingtian, you still have a chance to turn back; if you don't, it will be too late."
Luo Tiance tried to awaken Zhao Yingtian's patriotic conscience with words.
But clearly, he could not shake the conviction of a Super-grade Martial Artist.
Zhao Yingtian shook his head: "Elder Luo, surrender, that's the only way you and your grandson might have a chance to survive."
"This way, the Luo Family and Great Xia can avoid a disastrous slaughter."
"Dammit!"
Luo Tiance couldn't hold back anymore and swore unabashedly.
"You're shameless and cowardly, and you want to drag others down with you?"
"You will regret this!"
"Regret?"
Zhao Yingtian shook his head repeatedly: "I think this is the best decision I have made in my life."
"Let me tell you a secret."
"Your son was ambushed and crippled, and it was I who leaked his movements."
"How do you like that surprise?"
Zhao Yingtian said, "It's time for the Daxia Chief's position to change after all this time."
"It was always supposed to be mine."
"You deserve to die."
Luo Tiance's teeth clicked as he ground them, spiritual power surged through his body, as he strived to break the rope binding him.
"Don't waste your effort."
"This Binding Immortal Rope is the real deal, do you really think you can break free with brute force?"
Luo Tiance's face turned exceedingly ugly.
"How did you end up in such a state?"
"My son is your son-in-law, Xiao Yu is your grandchild, how could you betray us like this?"
Luo Tiance had suspected many of betrayal.
But he had never considered that it would be Zhao Yingtian, who was not only one of the Eight Great Family Heads but also the grandfather of the God's Child.
Zhao Yingtian said, "Luo Tiance, you are too naive."
"If we really were to oppose so many foreign forces, where would our chances lie?"
"Moreover, Our Great Xia has never shown any signs of divine beings awakening."
"How can we compare with these foreign forces, the gap is too vast."
"Rather than waiting for annihilation, better to be wise and avoid needless bloodshed and sacrifice."
"Fuck you!!"
Luo Tiance shrunk in size, and the Binding Immortal Rope shrank with him.
This legendary Magical Treasure of Great Xia was now used against him, binding his body tightly.
Nine people joined forces against him. With his main body bound, only two avatars could resist.
Luo Tiance immediately fell into a perilous situation.
Danger loomed on every side.
"At this time, your grandson should be already dead, and my World Allied Forces would surely claim a complete victory."
The Dark Council Lord laughed smugly.
They all unleashed their unique skills, seeking to annihilate Luo Yu in one fell swoop.
Just as Luo Tiance was overwhelmed.
The space tore apart, and a strong and terrifying aura emerged from within.
Everyone present constricted their pupils because this aura was simply too terrifying, as a tall young figure strode out from it.
With a raise of his hand, he blocked the terrifying combined attacks aimed at Luo Tiance.
Luo Yu pushed forward with one hand, solidifying the void as the brilliance of laws swirled around.
Spear Light, Dark Holy Temple, Divine Mountain, Flame of Light...
All the domineering assaults were halted, unable to advance a fraction of an inch.
The scene fell into silence all at once.
The Dark Council Lord and the leaders of various factions all widened their eyes.
It was as if they had seen a ghost.
"You... you..."
"How can you be here?"
"This is impossible!!"
"Luo Yu, how are you still alive?"
The leader of the Pantheon Temple and several others let out cries of disbelief.
They couldn't believe that Luo Yu could appear before them, unharmed.
He should have been dead by now.
Facing so many God's Children and remnants of the Deities, how could there be any reason for his survival?
