"Stand down!" The divine cultivator sitting in the carriage immediately ordered the thick-browed divine servant to retreat. Apparently, he also knew that even if his subordinates attacked in unison, they stood no chance against the gods. If the gods wanted to destroy them, it might only take a flick of the wrist.
When gods meet gods, it's a situation of king against king.
This divine cultivator was obviously weighing the pros and cons.
He also realized that he had underestimated the enemy earlier. He truly thought that the other side was just a young man, easy to bully, and that he had the upper hand.
As it turned out, this young man was no pushover; he even had a divine protector with him, forcing this divine cultivator to calmly face the situation.
He wasn't very confident about facing off against the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast either. After all, the Four Divine Beasts Bloodline holders have an inherent combat advantage that human cultivators of the same level cannot match.
