After surveying the surroundings, the chaotic scene quieted down considerably.
The leaders from various factions slowly moved forward and gathered around a table.
The Immortal King counted the number of people; once everyone was present, he nodded slightly.
"Everyone, thank you for coming from afar, it must have been a hard journey."
The Immortal King seemed oblivious to the noisy and unfavorable comments, maintaining a warm smile on his face.
This reaction took the scheming celestial beings by surprise.
They hadn't expected the Immortal King's response to be so composed.
Originally, the group thought that if the Immortal King got furious and made some impulsive decisions; they could make a big fuss of it, but they didn't anticipate that his emotional control was excellent. Instead of showing any excitement, he praised everyone generously.
This approach left the gods perplexed.
