What do you mean my cute disciples are Yanderes?

(MC POV)

If I had a word to describe that Gou Patriarch, I would definitely call him rabid right now, especially with how he's growling and hunched over.

The Miao Patriarch snorted at him, "Why should I agree to something so beneath me? You're not even worth my time, Patriarch Gou."

"So you think my family isn't even worth being considered amongst the ranks of the Divine Families anymore?! Is that it?!"

He turned his back on the rabid patriarch, "You're free to interpret that however you wish, but I'm not here to entertain you."

"I see now! Since my family is already marked like this, then there's no need for fake pleasantries anymore, is there?!"

The Gou patriarch raised his hand and everyone from his family stood up from their seats and drew their weapons in unison.

Looks like he had already anticipated something like this happening and everyone was prepared.

"Let's see if we are still relevant after this!!" He roared, charging at the Miao patriarch.

The Miao patriarch was in the midst of turning around when he was stabbed in the side by the Gou patriarch's sword, the blade going clean through his flesh to emerge from the other side of his body.

The Gou patriarch then kicked him away and tried to cut off his head, only to be blasted back by the fallen Miao patriarch who was roaring out in rage at him.

That seemed to be the signal as the rest of the Gou family people also flew out from their seats to start attacking everyone around them, slaughtering anyone they could get their hands on.

What's more surprising was that, instead of everyone teaming up against them, some of the other families had also started killing the people around them at the same time, as though they had planned this ahead of time with the Gou family as well.

Ironically, I also spotted people from the same family fighting amongst themselves too, most likely taking advantage of the confusion to settle rivalries or grudges.

The competition venue had thus turned into a warzone where everyone seemed to be fighting for themselves with no clear distinction between who is fighting who.

Fire and lightning exploded from around the arena while domains were being manifested and dispersed left and right.

A group of people whom I suspect were the ancestors of each of the families also started brawling in the centre, their fight causing rifts and tears in space and killing dozens of others as collateral damage.

To think everyone down there was smiling and shaking hands with each other not even an hour before this… The speed at which things change here is truly quite bizarre.

It should have been a rather frightful sight to normal people but to me, it really just looked like a really hilarious schoolyard brawl with kids slapping at each other.

I even took a page out of Iris's book and materialised boxes of popcorn for myself, the Qilin and Xun Guan to enjoy the sight.

It's not like whatever that's going on down there can affect us anyway.

The entire fight took probably close to an hour or so but there were only a few remaining families left. I wasn't sure who was who anymore with the piles of dead bodies and bloodied faces, but I at least recognised Long Er's father was still standing on top of a pile of corpses.

Seems like even in that state, he was still quite capable of defending himself.

The entirety of the Gou family was wiped out and it seems like the Miao family met the same fate too.

Most ironically, the two patriarchs were not killed by each other but from a badly placed explosion from one of the ancestors that killed the two of them together.

Yeah… I felt it was pretty anticlimactic for them as well.

Just as everyone inside the arena was trying to take a breather, several figures leapt out of the shadows and rushed straight towards the remaining ancestors.

Half of them were instantly killed while the others managed to defend themselves at the last second before being blown away.

"For the Resistance!!" Tianya roared, prompting the other goddesses to let out warcries of their own.

The already exhausted mortals could barely give a proper fight as the goddesses started cutting them down indiscriminately, heedless of any cries of mercy.

Some people realised that this was a lost cause and tried to escape, abandoning their own comrades just to save themselves.

The goddesses don't seem to be too interested in those running away as their priority targets were the ancestors of those families, leaving anyone who had given up to escape unhindered.

I spotted Long Er down there with her father and mother, the three of them also flying away with the remnants of their family and leaving their ancestors behind without even a second glance back.

The rest who remained tried their best to resist against the goddesses but it seems like they were just delaying the inevitable as Tianya and her group simply cut them down.

When faced with a combined onslaught from those goddesses plus the fact that all of them were already exhausted and worn from the fight with each other earlier, they stood no chance against them.

Eventually, no one else was left in the arena but corpses and the goddesses let out a cheer of victory.

Just as I thought everything was over, a section of the arena on the opposite side of where I was suddenly exploded, flattening everything around it and sending bodies flying through the air.

I realised that if I had followed the goddesses to climb up that part of the building, I would have been sitting over there too.

The goddesses were instantly on alert and they flew up into the sky to avoid the debris, all of them staring at the blast zone to see what had caused it.

When the dust had cleared, a single man with a golden aura surrounding him was levitating above the giant crater caused by the explosion.

"I am free!!" He shouted triumphantly, releasing a beam of light into the sky.

Tianya gasped, "No… This can't be… Rogue God Marde! The one who betrayed us for the mortals! How could you still be here?!"

Wow… Really? Just when I thought your problems were solved you go ahead and reveal that your World has even more problems…

Seriously, just how badly were you all managing this World? Do I need to get HR involved?

Oh wait, we don't have that. Nevermind then.
