Although there were still Supreme Unity experts preparing to act, once Great Mage Xuandu appeared, everyone chose to temporarily hold back.
Thus, Great Mage Xuandu managed to buy Ji Changsheng some time to seek reinforcements at the Jade Void Palace.
The other Supreme Unity experts were considering how Great Mage Xuandu might measure up against the Great Emperor Changsheng.
But the Great Emperor Changsheng's first move took down a Demon Saint, which caught the Supreme Unity group entirely off guard.
Even more unexpected was that, after casually dealing with Kong Xuan, the Great Emperor Changsheng almost instantly obliterated the Nine Spirits Demon Saint.
The sheer power he displayed was downright terrifying.
How exactly did he accomplish this?
Great Mage Xuandu gave Ji Changsheng a fierce glare, suppressing his resentment toward "Youngster Ji," but ultimately chose to play along with Ji Changsheng's swagger.
No choice—he still had to consider the bigger picture.
