Dong Huang Tai Yi heard the voice, his heart startled, and he immediately looked in its direction.
As the voice faded, several figures emerged from among the Wu Clan, standing at the forefront.
"Ancestor Wu Houtu!"
"Ancestor Wu Zhurong!"
"Ancestor Wu Gong Gong!"
The beings present quickly recognized the three figures leading the charge, who were three of the twelve Ancestor Wus.
The one who had just spoken was Ancestor Wu Houtu.
Behind these three Ancestor Wus followed a host of Great Wus, a veritable gathering of masters. In terms of high-end combat power alone, they surpassed the Demon Clan.
Their presence was so imposing that it was impossible to look directly, causing the observing powerful beings to tremble.
"Tai Yi, perhaps you should refrain from speaking!"
Di Jun looked at the emergence of the three Ancestor Wus with a sense of helplessness.
Why did it feel like his younger brother was destined to bring trouble whenever he spoke today?
Dong Huang Tai Yi felt wronged. Could he be blamed?
He also wanted to know what was going on today. He, Dong Huang Tai Yi, had merely uttered a harsh word, only to be repeatedly proven wrong?
However, even though Dong Huang Tai Yi felt deeply wronged, after enduring so many setbacks, he lost the inclination to speak and immediately fell silent.
Di Jun strode forward, looking at the three Ancestor Wus who had appeared, and spoke in a cold tone.
"Houtu, Zhurong, Gong Gong, are you truly here today to make enemies of my Demon Clan because of this Xu Fang?"
Di Jun questioned, his mind racing as he weighed the combat strengths of both sides and calculated the chances of victory.
Houtu, Zhurong, and Gong Gong glanced at Di Jun, chuckled, and offered no reply. They left Di Jun aside and looked directly towards Penglai Immortal Island.
"Fellow Daoist Xu Fang, it has been a long time since we last met at Buzhou Mountain!"
Houtu bowed in greeting from afar, and Zhurong and Gong Gong also cupped their hands in salute.
"Is this Fellow Daoist Xu Fang? We are immensely grateful to Fellow Daoist Xu Fang for recovering the sacred artifact for our Wu Clan!"
"Fellow Daoist Xu Fang, rest assured, no one will dare to lay claim to this Penglai Immortal Island today!"
The three Ancestor Wus were unequivocal, directly stating their stance.
Behind them, Kuafu and Hou Yi winked at Xu Fang, their faces filled with the joy of reunion.
Xu Fang had already learned through the live video broadcast that the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow was revered as a sacred artifact of the Wu Clan, so he was not surprised by their words.
What surprised him was that the Wu Clan still remembered this matter and were willing to mobilize their forces to confront the Demon Clan on his behalf.
"Thank you, fellow Daoists of the Wu Clan, for coming from afar to aid me, Xu Fang. Enough said, I trouble you all!"
Xu Fang cupped his hands in return, openly accepting the assistance of the Wu Clan.
Given the current situation, with the Wu Clan holding a decisive advantage, he had no qualms about seeking their help to overcome the crisis at Penglai.
At the same time, Xu Fang also felt a sense of relief.
"It was indeed an incredibly wise decision to yield the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow to Houtu back then!"
Xu Fang mused inwardly. A favor repaid with a favor. Fortunately, he had forged a good relationship with the Wu Clan, otherwise the situation would likely be very different now.
Xu Fang's thoughts were correct. Had it not been for his act of gifting the treasure, he would now be facing pressure from both the Wu and Demon Clans.
As long-time rivals of the Demon Clan, how could the Wu Clan not be paying attention to the Demon Clan's movements?
Upon learning of the Demon Clan's mobilization, the Wu Clan had assembled their own great army and followed, intending to see what the Demon Clan was up to.
Without Xu Fang's connection, a great battle between the Wu and Demon Clans would have been inevitable, deciding the ownership of Penglai Immortal Island.
However, now that they knew Penglai Immortal Island was the dojo of their benefactor, Xu Fang, the Wu Clan naturally felt ashamed to covet it any longer.
In this way, assisting Xu Fang in protecting Penglai Immortal Island would serve as a repayment of their debt of gratitude.
Watching Xu Fang converse happily with the three Ancestor Wus, the assembled powerful beings marveled.
"I told you so! Who in the Primordial Era is foolish enough to provoke anyone but this Xu Fang!"
"Indeed, it's practically courting death. Who knows how many powerful beings Xu Fang knows and how many forces he has befriended!"
"Haha! Fortunately, fortunately. These are no longer our troubles. Now the Demon Clan is in a predicament!"
The powerful beings marveled at Xu Fang's ability to forge connections. The Wu Clan's mobilization this time was truly on Xu Fang's behalf!
They couldn't help but feel fortunate that Xu Fang had severed their intentions with his magical formations and arrays. Otherwise, they would be in the same boat as the Demon Clan, facing the pressure of the Wu Clan.
The two from the West, observing from afar, exchanged bitter smiles and shook their heads.
When the Demon Clan's army had descended earlier, both Zhun Ti and Jie Yin had felt that the matter was settled.
Although they wouldn't obtain Penglai Immortal Island this time, seeing Xu Fang annihilated under the Demon Clan's iron fist, eliminating a major threat, was also a cause for celebration. It was not a fruitless endeavor.
Now, as fate would have it, the Wu Clan had appeared, vowing to help Xu Fang. What was going on?
They inwardly lamented and had already decided to stay far away from this Xu Fang in the future, not getting involved in the slightest!
Tong Tian stood beside them, smiling slightly.
Fellow Daoist Xu Fang truly had skill. When one is in trouble, support comes from all directions. So many forces were eager to help; the matter was now secured.
Conversely, the Wu Clan, seeing the three Ancestor Wus conversing happily with Xu Fang and declaring their stance, were filled with indignation.
The Wu Clan was indeed the sworn enemy of the Demon Clan. The Demon Clan was on the verge of victory, only to have the Wu Clan interfere at the last moment. It was truly detestable!
Di Jun, being ignored by the three Ancestor Wus, became even more enraged.
He was, after all, the dignified Demon Emperor. For Houtu and the other two Ancestor Wus to treat him this way was a complete lack of respect!
"Three Ancestor Wus, are you certain you wish to wage war with my Demon Clan here for the sake of Xu Fang?"
Di Jun questioned sternly, his expression dark.
Houtu, Zhurong, and Gong Gong finally shifted their gaze upon hearing this.
"War? Di Jun, you think too highly of yourself. Do you believe the Demon Clan here is a match for my Wu Clan?"
"Haha! Why don't we capture the two Demon Emperors here today and end this struggle between the Wu and Demon Clans?"
Zhurong and Gong Gong spoke, their contempt unmasked.
At this moment, the Wu Clan army vastly outnumbered the Demon Clan, leaving them with no hope of victory. They might even be able to suppress Dong Huang Tai Yi and Di Jun with their numerical advantage, achieving an unprecedented feat.
If that happened, with the Demon Clan leaderless, the outcome of the Wu-Demon hegemony would be self-evident.
Sensing the intentions of Zhurong and Gong Gong, Di Jun and Dong Huang Tai Yi were furious.
"To dare to underestimate my Demon Clan so, do you truly believe my Demon Clan cannot defeat your Wu Clan?"
Di Jun cast a fierce glance at the three Ancestor Wus and immediately prepared to command the Demon Clan army into battle.
Although his calculations earlier indicated a slim chance of victory, as the Demon Emperor, how could he endure such an insult and simply let it pass? If they did, how could the Demon Clan ever hold its head high?
Di Jun's words instantly ignited Dong Huang Tai Yi's fighting spirit. He directly brandished the Chaos Bell.
"Indeed. Even if the Wu Clan has a numerical advantage, with my brother and I both present, are we to be bullied by you?"
"Xu Fang, do not think that the Wu Clan's protection means Penglai Immortal Island is safe. I will conquer this Penglai Immortal Island today!"
As Dong Huang Tai Yi spoke, the beings present fell silent. The entire scene became eerily quiet.
Dong Huang Tai Yi had spoken harshly again. One wondered what powerful being or force would be drawn out this time!
