Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Chapter 1277 Who Will Become the Alliance Leader?

"This matter was originally kept secret by the Golden Spirit Priest for fear of undermining the prestige of the Priests' Palace among all races." Ye Ge shrugged: "But now that all five elemental priests are dead, it doesn't matter if we tell you."

"You audacious human, Night Song!" The level ten priest pointed at Night Song, trembling, and said angrily, "You...you dare to reveal heavenly secrets!"

"Tch, you can't even contact the realm of gods, what heavenly secrets are you talking about?" The dwarf king Gom scoffed. "You priests have lost the ability to regain your divine power, you'll soon be demoted to ordinary people, won't you?"

"You...!?" The priest trembled with rage. "Insolence..."

"So, the gods can't protect us anymore? What was supposed to be a war between their own religious sects has now turned into a war between us and them?" the dwarf king Gorm said in his booming voice.

"Hehehehe..." The Ancient Demon Lord let out a harsh, hoarse laugh: "Blessing? Actually, I remember that your divine masters haven't given you any blessings in the past tens of millions of years, have they? If they could truly protect you, how come your light-based races have been defeated so badly by the dark races for so many years..."

"Who did you say was beaten badly by you?" Beast King Lion Thunder's eyes turned cold.

"Isn't that so?" The Ancient Demon Lord sneered, "The Sixth War of Ten Thousand Races, the Seventh War of Ten Thousand Races... it seems that your Light faction suffered a crushing defeat in the end, didn't it? If your gods really cared about you, how could they have allowed our Demon Race to become the second-ranked race on the map of ten thousand races? And although the Fallen Angel Race ranks fifth in overall strength, their record against the Eastern Dragon Race and the Western Dragon Race in the previous two wars seems to have been evenly matched, right?"

"..."

The hall fell silent for a moment, and no one spoke.

"I've wanted to say that for a long time too." A hint of mockery appeared on the cold and beautiful face of the Flame Demon Lord. "What have you, the races of light, received from the gods you serve, besides paying tribute to them year after year and serving these eunuch-like priests?"

"In my opinion, your gods are only trying to maintain their own rule and do not want you, the myriad races of the lower realm, to develop too well. That is why they deliberately condone the war between us dark races and you, keeping us in a delicate balance, so that we can restrain each other and wear each other down."

"Because they know that if one day any of you obedient servants were to develop and surpass the gods...then their high thrones would be in jeopardy."

"How dare you! How dare you!!" The level ten priest blushed crimson. "Who are you calling a eunuch-like priest?! The High God only granted you dark races a space to live out of mercy, and instead of being grateful, you dare to blaspheme the gods like this! You evil demon, once we reconnect with the High God, you will surely regret your actions..."

Yan Ji's eyes narrowed slightly, and her killing intent spread like a tangible force, but her voice was light and airy: "Old thing, if you still want to live, you'd better hide in a corner and not say a word. Don't forget that you don't have much divine power now. For me, taking your life is as easy as crushing a bug."

"..."

The priest's Adam's apple bobbed, his face turned deathly pale, and he fell silent as if terrified.

"So now, does the Extreme Yin Pope also want us to submit to them?" Ao Shenglong King said.

“Yes,” Ye Ge said. “The God Realm is currently in a civil war, and both sides seem to be restricted by the other and unable to leave the God Realm. It is clear that the strength of the two sides is relatively evenly matched.”

"Pope Mo Nanxi of the Extreme Yin clearly wants to take advantage of the fact that the Light Emperor is unable to intervene in the lower realm, so that she can conquer the entire territory of all races in the lower realm for the Extreme Yin Lord she believes in."

The Black Sun Demon Lord snorted coldly: "Whether it is the God of Extreme Yin or the Emperor of Light Ye Qiong, our demon race will not submit to any god."

"We demons are too," said Abaddon, the Demon Emperor.

Ye Bing said calmly, without any expression, "The Fallen Angels are the same."

"So, this is the reason I've gathered you all here today," Night Song said. "You should all know what a level 12 divine mage is; they're practically comparable to a demigod. In a one-on-one situation, none of us here would be a match for her."

“That’s not necessarily true!” the dwarf king Gom said casually. “Duke Nightsong, I know you have a strong ability to fight opponents of higher levels. As it happens, I am also very confident in my own strength. I don’t think that I, a seventh-stage Soul Emperor, will necessarily lose to a level twelve divine mage like her.”

Ye Ge smiled faintly.

"King Gom, can you stop embarrassing yourself?" King Golden Feather of the Feather Clan sighed and said, "Look at the five strongest beings of the myriad races, do they dare to say such things?"

"Exactly, exactly." Yan King of the Yan Clan curled his lip: "Your dwarf race is almost running out of talent. Apart from you, a Soul Emperor Realm expert, you can't even find a few Saint Realm experts. No matter how good you are at fighting, how many can you take on?"

"What? You two aren't convinced?!" King Gom of the Dwarves glared. "Level and stats don't represent everything! True strength can only be revealed in battle!"

"..."

The Flame King and the Golden Feather King clearly didn't want to deal with this fierce fellow.

Ao Shenglongwang pondered for a while, then looked at Ye Ge and said, "Ye Ge, I understand what you mean. You want all our races to form a multi-race alliance to fight against the Extreme Yin Sect and the Gene Company."

Night Song: "Yes."

The gene company controls at least nine ancient demons.

Although Sima Qing's soul is currently severely damaged and he should be unable to summon ghosts and gods for the time being, this guy is the chairman of a gene company and also possesses the Heavenly Dao System. No one knows when he will recover.

The Yin Sect has another level twelve Fallen Divine Sorcerer. It's far too easy for a single race to fight against them and be defeated one by one.

Only by forming an alliance.

"Forming an alliance is easy," Gul'thas, the Black Dragon King, sneered. "But after the alliance is formed, who will be the leader?"
