Chapter 590
```
Although the Central Extreme Continent was shrouded by the shadow of the Jianmu tree, it couldn't block Du Ge's perception. He was fully aware of everything happening inside. The legacy of the Human Emperor had taken root, and the people were genuinely enjoying its benefits.
This wasn't something that could be influenced by shouting a few slogans or making empty promises to the upper echelons in a day or two.
Long-term propaganda had brainwashed the people into seeing the Celestial Emperor as a vile and sinister figure in the human world.
Having already rebelled, who would dare trust that he wouldn't settle scores later?
Therefore, the more the Celestial Court tried to smear Du Ge, the more united the people of the Central Extreme Continent became against a common enemy.
Seeing this, Du Ge even suspected that the Alien Star warriors on the other side were deliberately holding back.
This was normal. After so many battles on the Alien Star Battlefield, he had accumulated enough prestige. Anyone with sense would leave themselves a way out; only a fool would be dead set against him.
...
The Celestial Court's army was divided into twelve parts, commanded by the remaining nine Heavenly Lords and the Three Officials of Heaven, Earth, and Water.
The nine Heavenly Lords and the Three Officials held power and combat strength second only to the Celestial Emperor and the Queen Mother in the Celestial Court, having survived several great calamities.
Gao Ming and others were only nominally the highest commanders.
In reality, if it weren't for the need to expand influence and ensure survival, Gao Ming and the others would have preferred to remain behind the scenes.
Even though they knew opposing Du Ge was for his own good, facing him head-on in battle still brought a suffocating pressure that weighed heavily on everyone.
They feared Du Ge might kill them, yet they also worried that going too hard might ruin Du Ge's plans...
...
In the central command tent.
The nine Heavenly Lords, the Three Officials, and Gao Ming took their seats according to rank to discuss the upcoming battle.
"Marshal, Du Ge's coalition is gathering at Mount Sumeru. They are likely planning a major move next. According to previous tactics, the Demon Emperor will probably use the Primordial Banner to split our forces and defeat us piecemeal. How should we respond?" asked Yuan Sheng Heavenly Lord.
He was an experienced Heavenly Lord, and even when the Celestial Emperor gave him orders, it was done with consultation. Naturally, he held little respect for Gao Ming, who was clearly a pawn pushed forward by the Dao Ancestor.
Not only him, but every Heavenly Lord present was also pondering the Dao Ancestor's intentions.
