From both sides of the abyss, two gazes meet across the vast distance, generating a terrifying cascade of electric currents in the void.
"Emperor Dawu is finally here!"
On the other side, the ruler of the Demon Abyss sees Chu Yuan. His expression turns grave and he orders, "Take advantage of our territory, defend the Demon God Abyss, and prevent Dawu's army from entering. Until you receive my command, do not attack on your own."
Rather than directly leaving the Demon God Abyss to face Chu Yuan in a clash between emperors, he plans to maintain control of the overall situation and buy time.
He is the ruler of a kingdom. They cannot afford to lose this battle.
If Dawu loses, they can retreat back to Dawu, regroup, and return to fight another day.
But if they lose, it would spell the end of their kingdom.
"Loyal and Brave King, how ready is the great army?" Chu Yuan asked.
