Worldwide Simulation Era

Chapter 482 Rules And Incense

They could not understand or accept some of the terms and conditions Lin Qiye had set, especially the one that said not to harm humans but to help them.

In the past, humans were no different from insects in their eyes.

Some demons were even gluttonous and would catch a few humans from time to time to have a meal.

They were suddenly told not to hurt or eat humans in the future. How could they get used to it?

Moreover, this was only the initial rule. Who knew if the Holy Infant Temple Master would go mad and set other rules in the future?

"Alright, alright. Everyone, listen to me."

The scene was in an uproar. An old man with a long goatee suddenly stood up with a cane.

The group of demons instantly fell silent. They all turned to look at the elder.

The goateed elder coughed and said in a low voice, "This time, that Holy Infant is openly recruiting subordinates. He is not the one begging us to help him."

He paused and continued, "The Lord has extraordinary strength and is also blessed by the Gods. Even if we don't join him, there will be countless people under him in the future.

"Furthermore, with Chang Shi and the others as examples, I don't think the Temple Master is an oppressive and violent person."

Many demons nodded upon hearing the goateed elder's words.

What they were most afraid of was Lin Qiye's bad temper. In the future, they would have to be on edge when they followed him.

"Since Elder Wen has said so, it's useless to say anything more. In my opinion, if you agree, write a list to reply to Chang Shi and the others. If you disagree, ignore it."

"You're right. It's a gift from the Holy Infant, but you make it seem like he's the one begging us. If you want to go, leave!"

After some discussion, many who did not want to join changed their minds.

Only a small number left resentfully.

"It's time for the Alliance to break up."

The goateed elder sighed.

They were the mountain lords of the nearby mountains, trying to avoid being bullied by the greater demons.

One by one, they joined forces and formed this Alliance.

Before the crimson python incident, the Alliance had resolved the threat of being bullied by greater demons more than once.

However, ever since the incident happened, the Alliance began to split.

It had crumbled due to absolute power.

It was the same when facing the threatening crimson python, let alone the even more powerful and unfathomable Holy Infant Temple Master.

...

In just one day, Chang Shi and Hou Tu had been receiving many lists of people who wanted to join them.

Every mountain lord had gathered all the fiend soldiers under their command.

"These guys are really detailed. They even recorded the strength and specialty of every fiend."

Chang Shi looked at the name list with a smile.

"Now that the list of those willing to join us has been sent over, it's time for us to proceed with the next step of our plan."

Hou Tu prepared a new piece of information and wanted to send it to the mountain lords who had already sent their names.

"If we take this step, those fellows who are observing will probably all rush to become our Lord's subordinates."

"Haha!"

The two smiled as they sent the message.

Soon, all the mountain lords and their subordinates were summoned to the suburbs of Tata Village.

The vast fiends stretched for miles.

Even though they had informed the surrounding villagers in advance, many were so scared that they hid and did not dare to go out.

"What does that Lord want us to do? Why did they summon us so quickly? And why did they want all the lesser demons and fiends under our command as well?"

"I guess the Lord will show his face and let everyone see his style."

"Yes, I think so too. After all, everyone has only heard of his reputation. Coming out to show his power can also better deter those disobedient guys."

...

"Ahem..."

Just as the demons were chatting, Chang Shi, Hou Tu, and Butcher slowly flew above them.

"Since everyone is here, let's get down to business."

Chang Shi looked at the demons below, his voice full of dignity.

In this regard, the demons sighed in their hearts.

Once upon a time, Chang Shi's cultivation was not even as good as some of theirs.

But now, the highest cultivation level amongst them was only at the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, but Chang Shi's cultivation had already reached its peak.

However, they did not feel discontented because of this. Instead, they were filled with hope for the future.

"Chang Shi, where's Lord Holy Infant?"

Seeing that Chang Shi came out to speak, some people couldn't help but wonder why the Holy Infant didn't show up.

Chang Shi indifferently glanced at the person who spoke, and a powerful aura spread out.

The hall instantly fell silent.

Everyone couldn't help but focus on him.

At this moment, the figure in the sky didn't seem to be someone they were familiar with, but a high and mighty greater demon.

Looking at the reaction of the demons below him, Chang Shi nodded expressionlessly.

He was a little excited. Among those guys below, many needed his respect in the past.

But now, they were all looking at him respectfully.

Chang Shi couldn't help but sigh in relief. It was a wise decision to follow Lin Qiye back then.

He cleared his throat again and said with a straight face, "The three of us will be hosting this meeting. We're mainly going to discuss some initial missions, rewards, and penalties."

As soon as he said that, the scene immediately burst into a noisy discussion.

"What? The Holy Infant didn't even show his face?"

"And that guy, Chang Shi, too. Who was he in the past? Now, he's actually ordering us around."
