The Sky Smiting Devil Emperor muttered to himself in a daze, not even noticing that Yun Che's gaze beside her had been changing slightly.
The first planet created by the evil god?
Wait! Back then, the Golden Crow Spirit had specifically mentioned that the first planet created by the evil god was...
Jie Yuan came back to her senses. She noticed that Yun Che’s gaze and aura had changed. She said coldly, “Whatever you want to say or ask, just say it directly. Don’t be hesitant or hide anything. He was far from being like you back then!”
Jie Yuan's seemingly cold and hard words inadvertently revealed that... she did regard Yun Che as the shadow of the evil god Ni Xuan to some extent.
Everything has returned to dust, even that era has ended. And Yun Che is the only trace he left behind... and the only attachment she can find.
Yun Che said: “Senior Demon Emperor, you are completely different from what I expected.”
"What did you expect?" Jie Yuan smiled coldly: "Do you think that after I return, I will vent my anger and resentment to my heart's content, and the devil will come to the world, all souls will be destroyed, and all living and dead things will be turned into ruins... This is what we devils should do, right?"
“Junior… does think so.” Yun Che said honestly.
Not only him, everyone thought so, and even worse... Because in the eyes of the world, demons are the most violent and evil existences, not to mention the Demon God and Demon Emperor who have been filled with hatred for millions of years.
“However, the reason I think this is not because you are a demon. Any living being that has been subjected to such an ambush and endured so many years of suffering would become…” Yun Che paused and continued, “Although we have only had a brief contact, I can already feel that you are actually a very good person. No wonder you are so fond of me.”
“Heh…” Jie Yuan smiled coldly: “Good guy? What is a good guy? What is an evil guy? Gods are good guys, and demons are evil guys who shouldn’t exist in the world… It was like this back then, and it’s still like this now. Otherwise, how could this piece of demon ruins in front of us become so humble!”
Yun Che subconsciously raised his head and looked forward... This was indeed the Northern Divine Region!
It was also the place where the demons lived in the past.
“I dare not deceive you, Senior. The world today is still like this.” Yun Che said, “In this era, creatures that cultivate dark profound energy are still called ‘demons’. Regardless of whether they are demons, demon beasts, or demon spirits, they are all hated and rebuked by non-demon creatures and are regarded as heretics that should not exist in the world.”
“That’s why this Northern Divine Territory was also the land of the demons back then. Rather than being a divine star region, it’s better to say… it’s a prison for the ‘demon’. Because once they leave and are discovered by outsiders, they will be wiped out with all their might. There will be no chance of luck.”
"Demons must be killed at all costs... This is a common and deep-rooted belief among all the spirits in the Chaos Primordial Chaos today, just like water can put out fire. This was also true when I was young... This hatred of demons may be even stronger than it was in my predecessor's time."
Jie Yuan: “…”
"In addition, I believe that you must have felt that the aura of Chaos has changed dramatically. Due to the destruction of the Gods and Demons, the power level of the entire Chaos has dropped greatly, and the aura has become weak and turbid. The people you just saw are the ones who stand at the top of the world today."
"That person who has the aura of a true dragon and is the strongest... maybe he is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the seniors, but he is the strongest person in the current Chaos."
He specifically mentioned the Dragon Emperor, the Lord of Chaos in this world, so that it would be easier for Jie Yuanming to understand the current level of chaos.
"Another change in the chaotic aura is that the chaotic Yin Qi has been continuously decreasing... probably because there are fewer and fewer creatures cultivating the dark profound power. As a result, the star territory of the Northern Divine Region has been shrinking year by year. Perhaps one day, the Northern Divine Region will disappear forever."
Yun Che said it very directly, and this has always been common sense in the God Realm today.
"Are you telling me this to direct my attention?"
“…” Yun Che’s lips slightly opened, and Jie Yuan’s words directly pierced through his thoughts.
"Humph, in today's world, whether they are the heirs of God or the heirs of Demons, whether they are alive or dead, whether they exist or perish, what does it have to do with me?"
Jie Yuan turned his gaze and looked at Yun Che coldly: “There is one thing that you have always been wrong about. Do you think that he spent a huge price to leave behind the source power inheritance because he was afraid that I would bring disaster to the world after my return?”
“… Please explain clearly, Senior.” Yun Che was stunned. Could it be… not?
"He is the person in this world who knows me best and trusts me the most. He knows that if I come back alive one day, even if I have great hatred and anger, I will only kill those who deserve to be killed!"
"If the old villain Mo'e had not died and the gods had not been destroyed, I would not have lost my mind and killed the three people who inherited the power of Brahma!"
Jie Yuan's expression softened involuntarily at this moment, and his eyes softened a bit: "Because, this was the promise I made to him back then."
Yun Che: “Promise?”
"He hoped that the gods and demons would abandon their long-held prejudices and coexist peacefully... He hoped that the gods would gradually change their perception of the demons. Back then, I was willing to follow his wishes. I promised him that I would never kill gods or mortals without reason... Since it was a promise to him, I will not break it in this life."
Yun Che: “…”
Yun Che's understanding of "demons" has been undergoing various changes. And today, it is undoubtedly turned upside down.
The evil god once wanted the gods and demons to put aside their prejudices and coexist peacefully? Obviously, he failed, and his heart was dead... Therefore, there is no elemental creator god in the world, but an evil god.
"The reason why he left behind his legacy is indeed to remind me to treat future generations well. Because after returning, although I will not bring disaster to the world, but... my people will."
“Your… clansmen?” Yun Che’s brows twitched slightly.
"You can't imagine how terrible the world outside the Primal Chaos is." Jie Yuan said slowly and lowly: "Although my people and I rely on the Qiankun Thorn to survive, do you know how we survived?"
She stretched out her arms…the countless scars, each one was shocking.
Yun Che had seen too many scars in his life. But! These scars did not appear on a mortal body, but on the body of a demon emperor.
And it is a scar that even the demon Didu cannot erase...
Yun Che only took a glance and did not look away, and asked: “Senior Demon Emperor is the only one who has returned. Have all of your clansmen…”
"Over the past millions of years, they have died one after another, but some have survived to this day. However... there are less than a hundred left."
Back then, along with the Sky Smiting Demon Emperor, the nine hundred demon gods of the Sky Smiting Demon Clan were also exiled by Mo'e.
Less than a hundred meant that only about 10% of them had survived to this day. However, these four words still shocked Yun Che secretly.
It is less than a hundred, but close to a hundred.
Nearly a hundred demons still alive! ?
Although they cannot compare with the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor, they are... ancient true demons after all!
“Then… why didn’t they come back with Senior?” Yun Che’s heart suddenly tensed up.
"The Qiankun Thorn opens the [Space Channel] that connects the inside and outside of the chaos. That channel can exist for a long time without interference from external forces."
In Yun Che's mind, the diamond-shaped crimson crystal inlaid on the wall of chaos appeared. It turned out to be a passage, not a crack as people thought.
After all, the interference of Qiankun Thorn on the Chaos Wall was not like the Ancestral Sword and the Evil Infant Wheel, which used extremely high-level power to destroy it, but rather interference in space!
It is equivalent to replacing that part of the spatial force of the Wall of Chaos with the dimensional divine power of the Qiankun Thorn!
This means that as long as the channel does not disappear, any
All living creatures can use it to freely enter and exit the inner and outer chaotic worlds!
"The environment outside the Chaos is extremely complex and terrifying. In order to reach the passage opened by the Qiankun Thorn on the Chaos Wall from the small world we live in, we need to create another space passage. I can reach it directly with the power of the Qiankun Thorn, but they...even if they gather all their strength, it will take several months to create it."
“Then… why didn’t Senior use the power of Qiankun Thorn to bring them here together?” Yun Che asked again.
“Even if all of them gather their strength, it will take several months to shape it.”… These words made Yun Che’s heart tighten even more.
He originally thought that since only the Heaven Smiting Demon Emperor showed up, it meant that the other demon gods were dead... but that was not the case. Moreover, in a few months, even if the Heaven Smiting Demon Emperor did not go back to "pick" them up, they would be able to enter on their own!
“Hmph!” The Heaven-Smiting Devil Emperor snorted coldly, “I originally thought that since it took so many years to open up a passage in the Wall of Chaos, the God Clan must have noticed it and had already made preparations to ‘welcome’ them. If they rushed out at once, they would probably be wiped out… I didn’t expect that they would die first!”
Yun Che: “…”
“Moreover…” Jie Yuan raised his arm and looked at the red-glowing spike in his hand. “The power of the Qiankun Thorn is almost gone.”
"I thought they could recover quickly, but with the current chaotic aura, I'm afraid it will take thousands of years, not to mention a few months, to recover the strength to bring them out. It seems that they can only rely on themselves."
"They have been impatient for a long time." Jie Yuan looked into the distance with a cold tone.
Yun Che was terrified and tried to remain calm as he said, “When the time comes, if the demon gods return, please, Senior Jie Yuan, please… please comfort them. Otherwise… otherwise, this world will surely be doomed to disaster.”
Since this was the reason why the evil god left behind his legacy and the will he wanted to express, he believed that Jie Yuan would not refuse.
However, Jie Yuan said coldly: "Appease? Humph! Do you think I can appease you?"
“Senior is the Devil Emperor, and even more so the emperor of the Heaven Smiting Devil Clan. It is also because of your Qiankun Thorn that they were able to survive and return… So, as long as Senior Devil Emperor speaks, they have no reason not to obey!” Yun Che emphasized, “As Senior said, this is also the wish of the Heretic God.”
“Naive!” Jie Yuan said coldly, “Do you know what millions of years of hatred, torture, pain, despair, and death mean?”
Yun Che: “…”
"It is true that it cannot distort my nature... but it is enough to distort the will and soul of any true god or true devil! Turning them into true demons!"
“…” Yun Che did not doubt Jie Yuan’s words at all.
"The Gods have been annihilated, but their hatred must be vented! Before they vent it completely, no one can stop them! Including me!"
"As their Demon Emperor, I have watched them suffer, resent, go crazy, and die one after another over the years... How could I stop them!"
"And I am the one who caused them to be exiled! How can I be qualified to stop them!"
She turned her body to the side and looked at Yun Che coldly: "The only thing I can control is myself. You have his power, I can protect you and the people around you. But, I will not interfere with what they do after they return! And I cannot interfere! I am not worthy of interfering! Even he... cannot do that."
"But……"
“No buts!” Jie Yuan’s voice became even colder: “To do this is already my limit. Besides, this world no longer belongs to me. Everything I care about has turned to ashes and nothingness. Everything has nothing to do with me… and the life and death of others has nothing to do with you! What you said today is worthy of everyone in the world, so there is no need to say more!”
“No!” Yun Che shook his head slowly and firmly: “Senior Demon Emperor, this world is not completely irrelevant to you.”
