The Golden Crow Prince, who had been frowning, suddenly beamed with joy, thinking to himself, "As expected of my father!"
He looked at Zuan with schadenfreude, "You little thief, you've finally met your match?"
He even prayed, "Reject it quickly! Reject it quickly!"
That way, if I anger my father, I can have a legitimate reason to kill him.
He didn't know why he hated this person so much. Before meeting Zu'an, he was the top of the five great masters of the younger generation of the demon race, the undisputed number one.
The key point is that he was not selected because of his status, but because of his outstanding talent. Whether it is his cultivation level or his actual combat skills, he is the best of the younger generation of the demon race.
He is widely recognized as invincible among his peers, frequently challenges opponents of higher levels, and can defeat many opponents with higher cultivation levels than himself.
Therefore, he has been full of vigor and pride all these years.
But then he ran into this guy, Zuan, and he was actually defeated by him despite being a level above him!
This made all the previous experiences seem like a joke.
At first, he was very unconvinced, thinking that the other party had used a conspiracy. Even though he was severely injured by the other party in the palace during their second encounter, he did not waver in his Dao heart, because he was ambushed by the other party.
But later, during their encounters in the imperial tomb and in this unknown place, he was horrified to discover that the person he had once looked down upon was someone he increasingly needed to look up to.
He could even predict that he would not be able to defeat him again for the foreseeable future—the key point being that the opponent's cultivation level was still lower than his!
That's truly devastating!
Therefore, he couldn't wait for his father to step in and help him get rid of this inner demon.
At this moment, Zu'an spoke up: "Demon Emperor, I have already told you all the information about the Elixir of Immortality, but you are still not satisfied. You even want what I have. This is really not like a business partnership."
The Demon Emperor said calmly, "Only children make choices. I always want it all."
Zuan: "..."
If I didn't know the Demon Emperor's background, I would have thought he was just some old lecherous online friend from my past life.
The Demon Emperor glanced at everyone and said, "Considering our previous cooperation, I can spare your lives if you hand over what Da Yu just gave you. I hope you will consider this carefully."
In reality, he didn't intend to really let the other party off the hook; he was just saying that to lull them into a false sense of security.
At the same time, he wanted to sow discord among them. After all, the abbot of Baiyujing Temple, the leader of the Demonic Sect, and the Medusa Queen were not easy opponents. It seemed that these people together could achieve a 1+1>2 effect. Although he was not afraid, he still had to be cautious considering that Zu'an was favored by the will of this world.
After all, Yu the Great only gave the benefits to Zu'an, while the other three women received nothing, so there was no need for them to take risks with him.
If Zaun is unwilling to hand over the items, the other three women will definitely have a change of heart, and their relationship with Zaun will also develop cracks.
Unless all three women are in a passionate relationship with Zaun, it's impossible for them to stand together with him.
Queen Medusa is one thing, but the Ice Fairy of Baiyujing and the ruthless witch of the Demonic Sect, would they fall in love with someone else's man?
And they even fell in love with the same man?
Stop joking!
Seeing that Zu'an did not respond, the Demon Emperor sneered, "What, are you reluctant to part with them? Do you want these companions to die here because of your selfishness?"
Zuan smiled slightly: "Since when did the Demon Emperor start using the trick of sowing discord? I'm not afraid to tell you, what Da Yu just gave me was a cultivation technique, and it has nothing to do with immortality. Demon Emperor, your cultivation has already reached the heavens, and you are already the strongest in the world, so why do you care about my cultivation technique?"
"Cultivation techniques!" Prince Jinwu gasped. How could the cultivation techniques given to Earth by Yu the Great be anything less than excellent?
Father doesn't need it, but he does!
The Demon Emperor frowned slightly, and upon hearing that it was just a cultivation technique, he couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed.
Given his current state, what he needs most is not some magical skill manual.
However, he didn't readily believe Zuan's claim that it had nothing to do with immortality. Ultimately, he would have to see it for himself to know whether it was true or not.
As for whether Zuan's strength will skyrocket after learning Yu the Great's divine power...
It would be a miracle if he could learn it in such a short time. Even though he and Zhao Hao are the most outstanding geniuses in the world, it would have taken them at least several months to learn a manual that could be called a divine skill back then. Even now that they have reached the level of understanding everything, it would still take them several days to comprehend the essence of a divine skill.
Zuan is still in his early stages; even if he were given a year or two, he might not be able to master the basics.
The Demon Emperor said calmly, "I am a bit domineering. Over the years, I have wanted to possess all the good things. If you hand over the cultivation technique to me, I will not treat you unfairly. When you return to the outside world, you will be rich and powerful."
Zuan sneered inwardly. The other party was spouting empty slogans like "wealth and glory" without even bothering to make up any specific details, which showed that the other party had no sincerity at all.
Of course, even if he were sincere, he would never hand over this technique.
"Please forgive me, Demon Emperor, but I am not particularly interested in wealth and glory. I can only regret my inability to accept your kind offer."
Upon hearing his answer, Prince Jinwu almost burst out laughing. "Fine, that's it. Go ahead and court death, the more you court death, the more you'll die!"
The Demon Emperor's face darkened: "If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences!"
If it weren't for the fact that the other party was favored by the will of this world, when would he ever have the time to politely negotiate with someone whose cultivation was far inferior to his own?
Just then, the spatial passage rippled, and the atmosphere in the entire world seemed to become somewhat chaotic.
Yun Jianyue said in a deep voice, "This passage won't last much longer. If we delay any longer, we will all be trapped and die in this world."
