"Hehe."
Upon hearing this, Black Mist sneered. "I am but a strand of the soul of the Wrath of the Evil God. Even if you can kill me, so what? The moment I perish, all my memories will be transmitted back. My true self will uncover your conspiracy."
It was utterly unafraid, for it was nothing more than a wisp of soul.
"It's fine. I'll simply alter all of your memories."
Gu Chuan smiled faintly and pointed his finger.
"What?!"
Black Mist's hair stood on end. In that instant, it felt a fatal crisis. It had still underestimated the other party's supernatural power — it was far beyond anything it had ever imagined.
Boom!
Before Black Mist could react, a speck of light entered its body. With a thunderous bang, it exploded, completely annihilated — its memories wiped clean.
Under Gu Chuan's might, this so-called distraction of the Wrath Evil God was rendered utterly useless.
"This…"
Far away, in the Prehistoric World, the true body of the Wrath Evil God trembled. Its eyes flickered in confusion. It felt as if something had just vanished from its mind — but no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't recall what.
Eventually, it gave up.
"Alright. You lot, behave yourselves and stay here for now."
Gu Chuan looked at the ten Golden Crow Lolis.

Meanwhile, in the Prehistoric World, within the Monster Heaven Court...
High above the sky, amidst endless clouds, majestic palaces stood tall. Countless monsters and immortals resided here.
Stars twinkled in all directions, forming the great Universe Star Formation, anchoring the four corners of heaven. Endless starlight transformed into an enormous barrier, protecting the heavens.
This was the territory of the Monster Race, and the base of the Monster Heaven Court, where the powers of the Monster Race dwelled.
At this moment, within the court, many powerful figures had gathered: Di Jun, Donghuang Taiyi, Kunpeng, Xi He, Wang Shu, and the twelve demon gods — Shang Yang, Kai Ming Beast, Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Bai Ze, Qiong Qi, Yong Duan, Qin Yuan, Gui Che, Bifang Crane, Jiuying, and Chongming Bird — all exuding mighty auras.
Additionally, countless Monster Race powerhouses were present, most at the level of Immemorial Golden Immortals.
After years of effort by Di Jun, Taiyi, and Kunpeng, the Monster Race had grown rapidly, conquering billions and becoming the sovereign race of the heavens.
It could be said — the skies belonged to the Monster Race, and all stars were their domain. This was a feat even the five great prehistoric tribes had never achieved — an earth-shattering accomplishment.
The fortune of the entire Monster Heaven Court surged; golden light enveloped the palace, resonating faintly with the Prehistoric World. Countless dragon veins flowed into it.
Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, basking in the race's fate, appeared solemn and transcendent. Every movement aligned with the will of Heaven and Dao — it seemed they could break through to the Saint Realm at any moment and achieve detachment.
"Has the matter been confirmed?"
Seated high upon the throne, Donghuang Taiyi's face was expressionless, but infinite rage burned within his eyes. Everyone present could feel his fury.
Every demon god sensed the terrifying might of Donghuang Taiyi — one misstep and the heavens would collapse.
"Yes, Heavenly Emperor."
Bai Ze, the military advisor, stepped forward. "The moment the princes' auras disappeared, we dispatched generals to investigate. We found that the ten princes were killed in the Prehistoric World — their bodies utterly destroyed.
The one responsible is none other than Hou Yi, the Great Wu of the Wu Race."
The evidence was irrefutable — the culprit was Hou Yi.
"But why did Hou Yi kill my ten daughters?!"
Donghuang Taiyi clenched his fists tightly. Though seething with rage, he remained composed — suppressing the storm in his heart.
"It happened a few days ago," explained Bai Ze. "The princesses snuck out of the Sun Palace, unaware of their own power. They transformed into ten suns, scorching the sky.
As a result, countless members of the Wu Race died. The land was scorched, and rivers evaporated.
Kuafu, a Great Wu, tried to stop them. He pursued them, seeking negotiation — but something went wrong.
The princesses killed Kuafu. In retaliation, Hou Yi crafted the Nine Heavens Black Arrow and shot down the princesses."
He recounted the entire series of events.
"Outrageous!"
Donghuang Taiyi roared. His voice rumbled like thunder across Nine Heavens, shattering the void. The demon gods around him clutched their heads in agony — their souls quivering.
Even the palaces of the Monster Heaven Court cracked under his divine power.
This was the fury of Donghuang Taiyi.
The demon gods fell silent. No one dared to move.
"Just for that?! The Wu Race actually dared to let Hou Yi kill my ten daughters?! Madness!"
Donghuang Taiyi's voice turned colder. "Pass down my decree — demand the Wu Race deliver Hou Yi's head and exterminate ten of his clans. If they refuse, then the entire Wu Race will perish with my daughters!"
His wrath knew no bounds.
Originally, as the Heavenly Emperor of the Monster Race, he wouldn't rashly wage war against the Wu Race, for it would plunge the world into chaos.
But this was different.
His daughters had been murdered. This was blood vengeance.
Not only as Heavenly Emperor, but as a father — this was unforgivable.
If the Wu Race dared to protect Hou Yi, then the Monster Race would destroy them!
"Yes, Heavenly Emperor!"
The demon gods shouted in unison. They dared not disobey — for the Heavenly Emperor's orders were absolute.
They understood Donghuang Taiyi's rage. The Monster Race had been publicly humiliated. If they didn't retaliate now, they would lose all prestige.
This war was inevitable. There could be no retreat.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, the demon gods departed the Monster Heaven Court, heading toward the Wu Race headquarters.
They were to deliver Donghuang Taiyi's war declaration.
The pre-war notice had been issued.
