"Don't panic. The war hasn't even begun yet. We in the Ten Realms may not be a match for the Heavenly Demons. What's more..."
Jiang Deng suddenly had an idea and suggested to the Demon King Mo Wen, "You are such a good demon, so I guess your relationship with the demons among the demons should be good, right? Aren't there any demons who hate war as much as you do?"
“Yes, there is…”
Demon King Mo Wen began to think seriously. "There are several other demon kings who hate war just as much as I do. However... although our bodies are powerful, they also have drawbacks. They are suppressed by the demonic energy from above, making it impossible for us to maintain our sanity."
"Although the difference in demonic energy between the Demon King and the Demon Lord isn't that great, the Demon Lord has left marks on all six of us Demon Kings in order to control us. This is how my Demon King friends came under his control. Even if they wanted to help us, they'd be powerless."
Hearing this, Jiang Deng asked curiously, "Are you still under the control of the Demon Lord?"
"This Demon King won't do that now," Demon King Mo Wen said honestly, "When you used the Vitality Clay to sculpt this Demon King's body, the rich vitality cleansed away the mark the Demon Lord left on my body, so this Demon King will no longer be controlled by the Demon Lord."
"In that case..." Jiang Deng chuckled, "As long as you can guarantee that your friends will help us, I can help them get rid of the Demon Lord's control over them and let them regain their freedom."
"Good idea!" Mo Wen Demon King said with his eyes sparkling, "Then I'll go back and persuade them now!"
"Okay, we'll keep in touch anytime."
Jiang Deng stuffed a storage bag into Demon King Mo Wen's hand. Inside it were not only communication stones but also many spiritual weapons and magic weapons. After all, Demon King Mo Wen's strength had declined significantly now, so she had to give her something to save her life.
"Jiang Deng, this demon king is leaving first!"
After packing up his things, Demon King Mo Wen immediately said goodbye to Jiang Deng and flew towards the big hole in the sky.
"Isn't she a demon from outside the domain? Do you trust her so much..."
Baili Chengfeng was a little puzzled.
Jiang Deng's behavior seemed to be different from the righteous people he had met before. The righteous people always regarded evil cultivators, demon cultivators, monster cultivators, and ghost cultivators as evil demons, not to mention the extraterritorial demons that were even more terrifying than these types.
The culprit behind the chaos in the ten realms is the extraterritorial demon. Can we trust the words of the extraterritorial demon?
"Chengfeng, things are not as simple as you think. There are good and bad people, and there are naturally good and bad demons as well."
Jiang Deng smiled and shook his head. "I'll let her go. The worst that could happen is that we'll meet on the battlefield. Besides, there needs to be some trust between friends. I believe she won't betray my trust."
"...So we are friends?"
Baili Chengfeng couldn't help but ask.
He knew that it was probably too early to ask Jiang Deng to agree to become his Taoist partner, but it would be good even if he could just become his friend.
"Huh?" Jiang Deng asked in confusion, "If we're not friends now, what are we?"
"Haha, yes."
Hearing this, Baili Chengfeng felt mixed emotions.
The good thing is that Jiang Deng treats him as a friend, but the sad thing is that Jiang Deng also only treats him as a friend.
If he wants to go further, he probably still has a long way to go, but now doesn't seem to be the time to talk about that...
"Ancestor Jiang!"
"Lord of Baili Territory!"
Soon, Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng's communication stones rang one after another, and the two had to turn their backs and talk to their respective communication stones.
"Ancestor Jiang, where are you playing now? Hurry back to the sect! Something big has happened!"
As soon as Jiang Deng connected the communication stone, Zhan Ji's worried voice came from the other side.
"Hmm? What exactly is it?"
Zhan Ji said anxiously, "I don't know either. I just received a notice that something big has happened. The leaders of the Taichu Sword Sect must go to the Qiming Spirit Realm to discuss important matters. Without you, the ancestor, here, our Taichu Sword Sect can't go."
"Okay, I understand. I'll be back as soon as possible."
Jiang Deng also roughly guessed that it was related to the chaos in the Ten Realms, but he didn't know why he had to go to the Qiming Spirit Realm to discuss it.
However, after dealing with her second disciple, she had also planned to go to the Qiming Spiritual Realm to find Lin Jun. So it seemed like they were heading to the same destination...
Baili Chengfeng's situation was not much better than Jiang Deng's. Ye Chengren and Xue Hanyi, whom he had just met, started bombarding him with communication stones at the same time.
"Lord Baili, where are you now? Return to the Ancient Spiritual Realm immediately!"
"Lord Baili, you should have finished delivering the talismans, right? Come back quickly after you've done that!"
…
Both of them obviously heard each other's voices. After a moment of silence, they started arguing with each other.
"Ye Chengren, who told you to speak? This matter only needs to be notified by this dean. What does it have to do with you?"
"No, no, it would be more appropriate for this manor owner to inform the Territory Lord about this matter."
Seeing that the two were about to start fighting at the slightest disagreement, Baili Chengfeng coughed lightly and quickly interrupted, "Stop arguing and get down to business."
"The Ten Realms are in chaos, the Demon Lord is in trouble, quickly head to the Qiming Spiritual Realm to discuss!"
Ye Chengren and Xue Hanyi said this in unison, and after they finished speaking, they looked like they were about to quarrel again.
"Who told you to imitate the way this dean speaks?"
"Nonsense, you are clearly imitating the owner's speech."
"Ye Chengren!"
"The owner of the village is here."
…
Baili Chengfeng looked at the communication stones in the two people's hands with helplessness. He really didn't expect that these two people could quarrel without meeting in person, even through the communication stones.
"Okay, I understand. I'll go back to the Ancient Spirit Realm right away."
After saying that, Baili Chengfeng quickly cut off the connection between the two communication stones, and his ears finally quieted down.
"call!"
Baili Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jiang Deng, who had just cut off the communication stone. He felt a sense of reluctance for no reason. "Are you... leaving?"
Jiang Deng waved his hand and said, "It's okay. We will see each other again in Qiming Spirit Realm soon anyway."
"Too."
Baili Chengfeng nodded, and the reluctance in his heart was immediately replaced by anticipation.
Jiang Deng asked in confusion, "By the way, Chengfeng, do you know why the meeting was held in the Qiming Spiritual Realm? I remember that your Ancient Spiritual Realm is the largest spiritual realm. Also, who will be presiding over this meeting?"
Baili Chengfeng frowned slightly. "I only know that there are still many elders in the Ten Realms who have lived from ancient times to the present day. It was they who first spread the news of the chaos in the Ten Realms. I think this council was initiated by those elders. Otherwise, how could they gather so many people to discuss it so soon after the seal was broken?"
"Too……"
Jiang Deng nodded, frowning.
Although that group of people responded to the risk so quickly, she always felt that this was not good news, and she had no good feelings towards those old guys.
"Oh right," Baili Chengfeng looked up suddenly, as if remembering something. He said slowly, "Rumor has it that among those ten saviors of the ancient times, some are still alive today."
