The entire hall erupted into a heated discussion.

"Did I hear it wrong? The former God of Slaughter actually called him Master Joelson?"

"You didn't hear it wrong, that's what I heard too!"

"What the hell is going on?"

"Wasn't Joelson controlled by the former God of Slaughter?"

"Why would the God of Slaughter make Joelson his master now?"

"Could it be that the reward for the final trial isn't the legacy of a sovereign? This is the true reward for the final trial?"

"Reward a sovereign? That's crazy!"

"Isn't this much better than the legacy of a sovereign?"

"This is equivalent to obtaining the legacy of a sovereign, and giving a servant of a sovereign!"

"Are you fools? The lost divine kingdom and the sovereign's trial were both set up by the previous God of Slaughter. How could he set himself up as a reward? Only fools like you would do this!"

"Then what do you think is going on?"

"How would I know!"

"It's not the reward of the final trial. It can't be that Joelson defeated the sovereign and forced him to submit, right?"

Everyone was completely shocked by the scene before them but, at the same time, they were very puzzled.

They didn't understand why the previous God of Slaughter would address Joelson as master, and they began to argue amongst themselves.

But no matter who it was, everyone's gaze was filled with envy as they looked at Joelson.

This was a sovereign!

There weren't many sovereign experts in the endless planes!

And now, Joelson had actually taken a sovereign as a servant!

This simply made everyone unable to believe their eyes.

But the truth was right in front of their eyes and they had no choice but to believe it!

They couldn't be blamed for being unable to believe that a sovereign had been taken as a servant.

Over the countless years, let alone the fact that it had actually happened, they had never even heard of it!

And now, such a scene was happening right in front of their eyes!

Although the current God of Slaughter's existence meant that the previous God of Slaughter definitely didn't have the strength of a sovereign.

But it was still the same sentence.

This was a sovereign!

Regardless of whether or not he had the strength of a sovereign, at least he was once a sovereign. But now, he had become Joelson's servant, and he didn't seem to be dissatisfied at all. Instead, he appeared to be very respectful.

Just this alone was enough to shock everyone.

At this moment, a powerful, blood-red light appeared in Godfrey's hands.

Seeing this, everyone's pupils suddenly constricted.

This blood-red light had just killed a highgod expert in front of everyone.

Was this the power of the previous God of Slaughter?

Even though his cultivation level had fallen, it was still not something an ordinary highgod could compare to!

And now, this blood-red light had appeared once more.

"Who will fall this time?"

Everyone couldn't help but feel curious, and they began to look forward to it.

They didn't even have the chance to see a battle between highgods.

Needless to say, this was a battle between a former sovereign and a highgod.

Everyone was waiting. No one chose to leave.

This was because they knew that as long as they could gain a bit of insight from this battle, it would be of infinite help to their future!

However, what everyone didn't expect was that.

The four highgods of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter, as well as the leader, a late-stage highgod expert, didn't have the slightest intention of fighting.

Seeing the previous God of Slaughter make his move, they didn't hesitate at all.

They immediately turned and transformed into a streak of light, fleeing towards the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter without any regard for their lives.

This sudden change caused everyone to be stunned.

The highgod experts of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter had actually fled?

Although one of them had already died, there were still five of them left!

One of them was a late-stage highgod expert!

The five of them actually didn't hesitate at all. They didn't even consider attacking, immediately turning and fleeing!

This was something no one had expected.

The people of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter, even if they were only demigods, were usually extremely arrogant when they went out.

Not to mention the highgod experts of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter.

Everyone had originally thought that there would be a great battle.

In the end, the five highgods of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter had fled.

This caused everyone to feel extremely regretful.

"The highgod of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter... actually fled?"

"This isn't the style of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter!"

"If they fled, wouldn't the great battle be lost?"

"You can't blame them for being cowardly. After all, their opponent was the previous God of Slaughter. No one would dare to attack!"

However, everyone could understand why the five members of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter had chosen to flee.

After all, their opponent was the previous God of Slaughter. Even though his power had fallen from that of a sovereign, he wasn't an opponent that an ordinary highgod would be able to deal with!

When the surrounding highgods saw this scene, complicated looks appeared in their eyes.

"The previous God of Slaughter?"

The leader of the Orencia Empire, a highgod, muttered to himself in a low voice. No one knew what he was thinking.

It was different from what everyone was thinking.

The highgods were thinking deeper.

The reason why the five of them from the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter had chosen to flee was that they didn't hesitate in the slightest. They didn't even make a move to test the waters.

The reason wasn't just because of their strength.

The most important point was that their opponent had once been a sovereign, and not just any ordinary sovereign. He had been the previous God of Slaughter!

If it had been any other sovereign, they might have tried to test the waters. If they had been defeated, they might have chosen to flee.

But if their opponent had been a sovereign of the laws of slaughter, things would have been different.

All of the highgods present could understand this.

As highgods of the Plane of Slaughter, they primarily trained in the laws of slaughter.

The same was true for the five members of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter.

Even the laws you trained in were controlled by others millions of years ago. Now, you still want to fight with others?

In addition, in the Plane of Slaughter, everyone would accept the idea of worshipping the God of Slaughter from a young age.

The previous God of Slaughter was a character that lived in a myth.

Now, a character that walked out of a myth was standing in front of you, alive, and had easily killed a highgod of the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter.

Under such circumstances, the five people from the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter naturally wouldn't have the courage to attack.

However, this didn't mean that they would be able to obtain victory just by attacking.

Even if they were once sovereigns, they were definitely not an opponent that an ordinary highgod would be able to resist!

This was the consensus of everyone!

The highgods looked towards Godfrey, their eyes revealing a complicated expression.

There was reverence for the mythical figures in the ancient books, as well as wariness towards him.

After the five people from the Divine Kingdom of Slaughter escaped...

Godfrey didn't choose to pursue them. Instead, he whispered a few words to Joelson.

Joelson nodded in response.

Even if Godfrey didn't say it, he understood.

Godfrey's backup plan was hidden in the tomb of the sovereign. After leaving this place, it would be useless.

In addition, his current strength was only at the early stage of the highgod level.

Being able to force back five people was already the limit of what he could do.

If he wanted to pursue and kill five people...

It would be too difficult.
