When the Eternal Tower descended, the Abyss did not open immediately; before the bloody battle began, there was a very brief period of peace.
Before the demons even set foot on Earth, an uninvited guest from the human race arrived in the abyss.
He wanted to see what the demon race was really like.
He also wanted to know if there was any possibility of peaceful coexistence between the two tribes.
Along the way, the man gained a deeper understanding of the abyss and became very clear about just how difficult this matter was.
The abyss contains chosen demon gods, primordial demon gods, some who are part of the most powerful demon gods, and others who are aggregates of the abyss itself...
These guys were never united to begin with; their only consensus was to reclaim the Eternal Tower, conquer that planet, and exterminate all life on it.
There is almost no room for easing tensions.
But if he could persuade some of the top experts, perhaps fewer people would die...
Today, the First Abyss is unusually lively.
"Drink! Drink!"
The Great Demon God downed the wine in his cup in one gulp, yet still felt it wasn't enough.
"Son, pour this uncle a drink!"
The demon serving nearby hurriedly reminded them, "Great Demon God, Great Demon God, the young master has run away from home..."
"Useless thing!"
Upon hearing this, the Great Demon God slammed his hand on the table, the force of which was somewhat out of control, and a terrifying crack spread out.
The Great Demon God is the strongest being in the entire Abyss, without exception.
Even a casual strike from Him, even if it's just a slight leak of power, can be a disaster for other demons.
"Calm down."
There was only one guest at the table, and he didn't move at all. But his shadow twitched strangely, and the crack on the table disappeared as if it had never existed.
"Excellent swordsmanship!"
The Great Demon God's eyes lit up as he looked at the sword at the man's waist, and then sighed.
"A fine sword!"
The sword is a fine sword, and the knife technique is excellent.
The one who wields the knife and the one who wields the sword are not the same person.
To be precise, the one who wields the sword is the man, and the one who wields the knife is the shadow.
Faced with the Great Demon God's praise, the man smiled shyly, poured himself a glass of wine, and said leisurely,
"Speaking of which, I'll be having a child soon too."
"Oh? Such a joyous occasion! Let's have another drink, another drink."
The Great Demon God pulled the other person into drinking three cups in a row; it was clear that He was in an exceptionally good mood today.
"Hey bro, have you picked out a name for the baby yet?"
"It was already picked up."
The man nodded and said,
"If it's a boy, we'll name him Xue Yixing, and if it's a girl, we'll name her Xue Yi'an. But my older brother insists on naming the children, saying things like, 'If it's a boy, name him Xue Meng, and if it's a girl, name her Xue Meng...'"
Clearly, the man has a good relationship with his older brother, and he is willing to respect his brother's opinion on such an important matter as naming his child.
The Great Demon God slowly nodded.
"Xue Meng, you're great! The character 'Meng' in your name is like a tiger descending the mountain. Brother, when your child comes of age, I'll give him a big gift!"
"Then I thank you on behalf of the child."
Feeling bad about accepting the gift for no reason, the man got up again.
"How about we go and see your young master?"
Although the young master ran away from home.
However, the world is vast, and there is nowhere this man and this demon cannot go.
The so-called world is nothing more than a bigger home for the young master.
The Great Demon God waved his hand.
"What's there to see? He's a madman, crazy and unruly, never serious, and can't help with anything important, all he does is cause trouble."
"Let's meet. If we get to know each other, we can look out for each other in the future."
Unable to resist the man's pleas, the Great Demon God had no choice but to get up.
A moment later, they found the prince who had run away from home, who was sleeping in a cave.
They were in perfect harmony; neither of them showed themselves, but instead observed everything from above.
"The person I owe the most to in my life is this child..."
The Great Demon God sighed. Many people couldn't understand what He had done, but He had always supported this prince who loved to run away from home.
Of course, the young master is mentally ill. Even if his father commits suicide, he might still be singing, dancing, clapping, and cheering on the sidelines.
The father and son didn't become enemies; the reason was that the son had gone mad...
This story is pretty melodramatic.
The Great Demon God sighed.
"I can let go of everything else, but this child... if you have the chance, could you please take care of him for me..."
"That's natural."
The man agreed and glanced down at his own shadow.
The Great Demon God was making his final arrangements, but the man's situation was no better than the Great Demon God's, and perhaps even more dangerous.
Who knows who will be responsible for what happens after this?
If men can't do these things, they can only leave it to their shadows.
The shadow twitched, but did not react further.
"Alright, that's enough. This guy won't go far. Every time he runs away from home, it's just for fun. He'll be back in a couple of days. Let's go back and have a drink."
The two returned to the table, and the atmosphere warmed up again.
"Never mind this unfilial son, let's keep drinking, keep drinking!"
"Alright! Let's just drink today."
"Now that we have a brother like you, according to your human way of saying it, how should we... that's right, swear brotherhood!"
And so, the man and the demon stood before the abyss, bewildered, holding wine jars in their hands, and began to swear brotherhood.
"I am Xue Jiu, a human."
"I am eternal."
"Today we become sworn brothers, not seeking to be born on the same day, month, and year, nor to die on the same day, month, and year, but only that our dreams come true and our wishes be fulfilled..."
The Great Demon God's wish was simple, and Xue Jiu's dream was also simple.
However, what they wanted to do was very difficult, so difficult that even as the strongest of their respective tribes, they could not see a glimmer of hope for success.
Even so, they continue on this path.
After they swore brotherhood, the man and the demon god drank the wine in the jar in one gulp.
The Great Demon God still wasn't satisfied, so he stood before the abyss and smashed the wine jar in his hand downwards.
"If I ever break this oath, may I, like this altar, die in the abyss, my body shattered to pieces, never to be reborn!"
Rumble—
Thunder roared in the void, and a massive malice was awakening, stirring restlessly.
In the First Abyss, in a secluded cave, a young master who had run away from home was hiding in a corner, trembling and weeping pitifully.
A deep, resonant voice rang out.
"You rascal, didn't we escape? Why are you crying?"
He then switched to a sissy voice and said...
"You bad woman, I had a nightmare."
"I told you to bring my teddy bear out. I've never had a nightmare while sleeping with it! So what if you have a nightmare? What are you afraid of? We still have Dad!"
"I dreamt...I dreamt..."
At this moment, the Second Master Ying, who wasn't yet called Second Master Ying, howled at the top of his lungs,
I dreamt that your father died!
