Judging by his uncle's tone, he could sense the urgency of the matter. However, he didn't ask. The information could be filled later on, what's important was that they must reach the palace before it's too late.
Dan Rou also had no time to explain things right now. Because in this dire and dangerous situation, time was very precious.
After which, Dan Rou checked the two persons beside him and see if there was something that needed urgent treatment. Fortunately, there was none. So he calculated the coordinates to leave this abyss.
---
In the vicinity of the palace. Dark clouds were looming above as if a calamity has descended was about to descend. Many figures in group could be seen in the large sky of the realm.
The Rou Celestial Family was standing by the palace, with their armies of tens of millions. Their expressions were grave enough because they knew that it was now the time for the thing to happen.
Opposite of them were a group of devils, about 20 beings. These devils were so huge in figure, about 100 meters tall. What's more, there's a bigger devil, about 200 meters. He was sitting on a large throne and was looking at the family's direction with red eyes. It could be seen that his eyes had a terrifying killing intent raging within.
The devils had finally arrived. And was about to take the palace for their reserve. This was the start of their path towards domination. And, everyone shall acknowledge their very existence as the utmost overlord of all.
"Greetings, Rou Celestial Family." A member of the True Devils, with a number 4 printed on his forehead, had stepped forward and spoke, "I am the 4th True Devil, Maymar. We come here personally because His Majesty wants to have a talk with your family."
"Have a talk?" Fan Rou laughed and taunted Maymar, "You devils brought your entire line up here. And you're telling me you want to talk?"
The devils has actually brought 15 devil generals, 4 True Devils, and the emperor himself, if we would exclude the two devils who died.
Though they were few in terms of people, the devils couldn't be underestimated. They brought their full power here in this universe! What's the actual use of those ten million of army on the family's side if a single true devil could annihilate them by a fourth or third.
In actuality, the emperor wanted to bring all their armies and fight a war of attrition against the Rou family. However, his adviser, Demure, suggested to withdraw them since this fight was going to be between zeniths. So the armies were actually useless in a sense here. They would just bring more casualties and losses on their side, so Demure wanted to cut their losses as much as possible.
The emperor wanted to say something, however he felt that one of his connections towards his loyal subordinates had been severed. It surprised the emperor a bit. However, he regained his composure just after a second.
It wasn't the time to aggrieve the dead. As the emperor, he had a heavy responsibility here. Furthermore, now that they crossed the line, it was now a battle to the death against the celestial family.
Maymar chuckled when he heard the former celestial king's words, "Indeed, we have brought our full line up here. But that's just a safety precaution on our part. After all, we are here in your territory. Who knows what will happen, right?"
His words sounded convincing. However, Maymar had failed to hide his killing intent, thus making his statement laughable.
"Safety precautions?" Fan Rou laughed softly, "But you're leaking so much killing intent that I could feel it."
He paused for a second and resumed, "Let's stop this little show of facade of yours. You want to seize our universe, right?"
"..." Maymar was speechless as he stared coldly at Fan Rou.
No matter how many times Maymar twisted his words, it all ended up to what Fan Rou had said. Indeed, they were here yo devour this whole land called True State Universe.
"See, I'm right." Fan Rou smiled and said, "However, you devils from that lowly universe must be dreaming. To think of attempting to devour our universe to your bidding? You are jesting."
"Former Celestial King Fan Rou, I have heard of your exploits. You truly preceded expectations." Maymar calmly said, "However, you aren't in a position to talk to us devils like that. We came here for a peace talk, domination is out of the question."
"I'm amazed how can you deny a thing without batting an eye. You sure have done this so many times." Fan Rou smiled coldly and spoke.
He wanted to say more. However, Yanlu Rou urged him to stop. Fan Rou immediately stepped back and rather felt cheated. He wasn't done with his part yet but his mother had already intervened.
Yanlu Rou stepped forward and judged every devil present. Then, her gaze stopped at the emperor sitting on the throne and said, "Devil Emperor, I think you are the only one who has the position to talk to me, don't you?"
She was hinting a very obvious point. The emperor should do his job as Yanlu Rou was doing hers. As these two were the leaders of their group right now, it was right that the emperor would step forward to.
A devil wanted to oppose this. However, the emperor signaled him to shut up and stood up from his throne. Now, he looked more gigantic than ever. Yanlu Rou's size look like an ant in front of this devil.
Seeing the devil, Yanlu Rou's voice sounded out, "Devil Emperor, you know how I work things. If you're here for a talk, then let's sit down and talk what you want to. But if you are here with malice, I don't think I need to say more."
It was a true warning. If the other side wants to push their buttons, the family would go all out to annihilate them. But Yanlu Rou was willing to give them a chance. Not because she pitied them, but because she could take bear the losses even if they win.
