The High Priest smiled slightly and said, "Without the Primordial Demon Clan, guarding Demon Spirit Mountain would be extremely difficult." Only
then did Long Chen realize that the situation between him and the Primordial Demon Clan had long been well known.
"But the Primordial Demon Clan ...," Long Chen hesitated.
"The Primordial Demon Clan is called the Demon Clan and is regarded as a menace by the Tianwu Continent. They are cursed by the Tianwu Continent and cannot appear on it.
But now, the laws of Heavenly Dao on the Tianwu Continent are chaotic, so they no longer reject them. As long as they open the world passage, they can freely appear on the Tianwu Continent. The High Priest said.
"But I'm afraid the Tianwu Continent won't accept them." Long Chen felt a bit uncertain.
"Why bother with them? Who says Tianwu Continent rejects them? They are its enemies.
The Heavenly Dao is no longer the original Heavenly Dao; the current Heavenly Dao does not represent the will of the Tianwu Continent at all.
Most people in the world are ignorant and prefer to listen and believe partially. The origins of the Primordial Demon Clan are not something they truly know.
Without the Primordial Demon Clan, facing Demon Spirit Mountain, you would face unprecedented pressure and might not even be able to distract yourself from dealing with other powerful figures.
This is also the only chance to clear the name of the Primordial Demon Clan. As for the Divine Clan, remember, we are partners, and our goal is only the ultimate benefit, which only appears at the end.
Whether it's bargaining with a tiger or taking the chestnut from the fire, as long as the timing is right, the ultimate victor will still be us. The High Priest said.
Long Chen was moved. The High Priest's words partly matched what the Emperor Ziyang had said—that is, the current Heavenly Dao of the Tianwu Continent was not truly the will of the continent.
In other words, every time Long Chen experienced heavenly punishment, it was the Heavenly Dao who wanted to kill him, not the Tianwu Continent. The two were not one and the same.
Now that the High Priest has also mentioned this matter, Long Chen seems to understand something. Is it that the Tianwu Continent itself cannot control itself at this moment?
The breaker?
Suddenly, Long Chen felt as if a bolt of lightning had flashed through his mind. Things he hadn't understood before suddenly became much clearer. If this situation included the Tianwu Continent, he would be able to grasp the meaning behind the words of past emperors.
Looking at Long Chen, as if he had seen through his thoughts, the High Priest smiled slightly and said, "Some things should just go ahead, because no one can see through the future. Just work hard; leave the rest to time and go for it." "
Thank you, senior."
Long Chen felt that many mysteries in his heart had been solved, and his future seemed to brighten. The five Great Emperors had entrusted their hopes to him, supported by billions of powerful figures such as the Wine God Palace, Guanghan Palace, Miao Le Immortal Palace, and the Tianwu Alliance. He was now full of confidence.
However, Long Chen did not respond directly about whether to ask the Primordial Demon Clan to intervene, since he still needed to discuss it with them.
After all, they had been hunted for generations by the powerful figures of the Tianwu Continent and once faced extinction. Now, if they were asked to help the continent, most people would never agree.
Using his own life to protect his enemies? If it were Long Chen, he wouldn't do that, so he needed to consult the Primordial Demon Clan first.
"Long Chen"
When Long Chen descended upon the First Demon Clan again, the first thing he saw was Yue Xiaoqian. She was pacing in front of the teleportation array, and when she saw Long Chen, her eyes were filled with delight.
Yue Xiaoqian was still beautiful, but she was somewhat thin, which made people feel a bit sorry for her. The moment Long Chen saw her, he instantly understood her feelings.
She was struggling, she hesitated, she was considering whether to enter the Tianwu Continent to find Long Chen. She wanted to see Long Chen, but was afraid of causing trouble for him.
Long Chen had never imagined that he held such an important place in Yue Xiaoqian's heart. After such a long time apart, Yue Xiaoqian had suffered from longing.
When Yue Xiaoqian saw Long Chen, her beautiful eyes lit up, and a lovely smile curved at the corner of her mouth. In that instant, it was like peach blossoms blooming, spring returning to the earth, and it seemed the fatigue on her face had vanished as well.
"Xiaoqian, you've lost weight."
Long Chen walked over to Yue Xiaoqian's side, his eyes full of pain and guilt. He stroked her cheek with his large hand and said with pain.
"I... "It's nothing... Yue
Xiaoqian said it was nothing, but tears of grievance couldn't help but fall.
During this period, there was no news of Long Chen. She was filled with worry and wanted to go to the Tianwu Continent several times, but her mother Yue Xihan stopped her each time. If Yue Xiaoqian's identity were exposed, Long Chen would become a public enemy of the world.
But the fact that Long Chen hadn't heard anything meant he was in trouble. Yue Xiaoqian was full of worry but couldn't exert any strength—that feeling of helplessness kept tormenting her.
Today, she finally couldn't hold back anymore and secretly tried to go to the Tianwu Continent without telling her clan. But when she reached the teleportation array, she hesitated again.
When Long Chen suddenly appeared, Yue Xiaoqian was filled with surprise, as if she were in a dream. As soon as Long Chen spoke, countless grievances surged in her heart. Unable to hold back any longer, she hugged him and buried her head in his chest, crying out loud.
Long Chen's nose tingled: What am I capable of? I have won the favor of so many fairy-like confidantes who have given so much for me, but what about me? What could he give them? Even a simple companionship is so extravagant. Long Chen, oh Long Chen, you haven't lived up to the title of a seven-foot man.
Long Chen held Yue Xiaoqian tightly in his arms, his heart filled with guilt and self-blame, and at the same time, his heart filled with resentment. He had never thought of competing for supremacy in Tianwu, never about conquering the world; he only wanted a quiet life. But fate insisted on forcing him, pushing him to his death.
After crying for a while, Yue Xiaoqian seemed to finally vent her grievances. She slowly left Long Chen's embrace and found that Long Chen's chest was soaked with her tears. Her pretty face flushed with embarrassment. She reached out her jade-like hand, mist rising from Long Chen's chest, and her tears dried up.
"I didn't expect you to iron clothes. You're truly a devoted wife and loving mother." Long Chen said with a smile.
Yue Xiaoqian's face turned even redder. She punched Long Chen with her pink fist, but her eyes were full of tenderness. With Long Chen's arrival, her whole spirit had improved a lot.
"I never said I wanted to marry you." Yue Xiaoqian shot Long Chen a playful glare and teased.
"If you don't marry me, then who will?" Whoever set their sights on you, I'll just cut you down with one stroke. Damn it, who would dare lay a finger on my wife? Long Chen patted his chest, looking fierce and menacing.
Yue Xiaoqian was amused by Long Chen until she broke into a smile through her tears. She wiped her cheek and said seriously, "Long Chen, why did you suddenly show up?" "
I'm here to propose marriage to my mother." Long Chen said seriously.
"Don't mess around, are you talking seriously?" Yue Xiaoqian was both embarrassed and annoyed, complaining in a playful tone.
"Seriously, it's just to propose marriage. And by the way, let's discuss whether the Primordial Demon Clan is willing to settle on the Tianwu Continent." Long Chen said with a smile.
She knew Long Chen had serious matters to attend to. Yue Xiaoqian shot him a glare, and the two of them held hands and went to see Yue Xihan.
Long Chen shared the High Priest's thoughts with Yue Xihan. Long Chen said, "Clan Leader, I am just seeking your opinion. The Primordial Demon Clan can accept or refuse. No matter what, our feelings will not change because of this. You should understand what I mean, right?" "
Long Chen said these thingsAt that moment, he felt a bit uneasy. After all, for the Primordial Demon Clan, this was something hard to accept and hard to talk about. But since the High Priest had spoken, he had to come at least once.
But what Long Chen didn't expect was that Yue Xihan was unusually calm, showing not a trace of anger. Instead, she said kindly, "
You child, why do you look so anxious? Do we really need to be so cautious between us?"
In fact, the High Priest of the Wine God Palace is a good man. Perhaps he knows some secrets of our primordial demon clan.
Because entering the Tianwu Continent is a rare opportunity for us, because whether it's the Sky Realm or the Wild World, both are small worlds with incomplete laws.
But the Tianwu Continent possesses complete laws. Only within Tianwu Continent can our First Demon Clan fully awaken their primal bloodline.
Killing the otherworldly demon race will accelerate our cultivation, so this is also an opportunity for us. "
Is there really such a thing?" Long Chen was stunned.
Yue Xihan nodded and said, "In the past, on the Tianwu Continent, laws suppressed us, so we couldn't cultivate.
But with the invasion of otherworldly auras and the chaos of the laws of the Tianwu Continent, they can no longer suppress us. This is a great opportunity for our primordial demon race to rise.
Moreover, as long as we open the Gate of the Sky-Reaching Realm and the primordial demonic energy enters the Tianwu Continent, the power of our primordial demon clan will be fully restored. "
So you mean, agreed?" Long Chen exclaimed in surprise.
Yue Xihan smiled: "You are the successor of the Nine Stars. Our Primordial Demon Clan will swear to follow you to the death. Don't say this is good for us—even if it doesn't, we will fully support you." "
Long Chen was deeply moved; this was absolute trust. The Primordial Demon Clan's trust in him was beyond words.
"Alright, then I know what I'm doing. I didn't answer the High Priest directly at the time."
After Long Chen finished speaking, he returned directly to the Tianwu Continent. But this time, he came back with Yue Xiaoqian.
Long Chen explained the response from the Primordial Demon Clan to the High Priest, but he made it clear that the Primordial Demon Clan would come to help Tianwu Continent without holding grudges. If any clan dared to trouble the Primordial Demon Clan—even the Divine Clan—Long Chen would turn against them outright.
The High Priest seemed to have known Long Chen would say this all along, so he immediately wrote a letter and had it sent to the Divine Clan.
The Divine Clan quickly replied, saying that the High Priest had guaranteed the First Demon Clan would not wreak havoc on the Tianwu Continent, that they could cooperate with the First Demon Clan, and made it clear that they would not clash with them.
Soon, a piece of news echoed across the Tianwu Continent: the Primordial Demon Clan would appear on the continent.
Moreover, the Primordial Demon Clan was no longer the demons people imagined, but had become allies, helping the Tianwu Continent resist otherworldly powerhouses, causing an uproar among the people.
The Primordial Demon Clan is the arch-enemy of Tianwu Continent and has long been deeply ingrained in people's hearts. Now, letting the Primordial Demon Clan settle in Tianwu Continent would be like inviting a wolf into the house.
Experts from various factions—Wine God Palace, Guanghan Palace, Miao Le Immortal Palace, Tianwu Alliance, and others—all gathered before the Sky Realm Gate. In an instant, the Tianwu Continent was shaken with turmoil, and all factions gathered together.
"Crack, crack, crack...
The
void shattered, and a giant gate appeared above the void. The gate slowly opened, and the warriors of the Primordial Demon Clan, led by Yue Xiaoqian, appeared before the powerful figures of the Tianwu Continent.
