"It's not that the Jade Emperor doesn't want Time, but these Dao Lords didn't give him Time," Yu Zhenzi explained with a bitter smile in defense of the Jade Emperor.
Everything happened too swiftly; even the Jade Emperor and the Great Emperor Ziwei, despite their successful plotting, did not anticipate Taoist Monarch Tianji and Sword Emperor would act so decisively, unwilling to wait for the end of the trial.
It is known that True Immortals possess extended lifespans, and Dao Lords are almost immortal; waiting for decades or even centuries for something is not considered a lengthy time.
Yet, this trial is only the first round, and had they been willing to wait for its thorough conclusion, it would have taken at least several decades to a century, giving them ample time to cope.
However, these two veteran Dao Lords disregarded martial ethics and took action directly, leaving no time to master the Supreme Divine Power.
