Although he was outwardly respectful to me, he was definitely a thousand times more resentful inside.
Although our demon race has been assimilated by the gods and immortals over the years, our behavior and mannerisms have become similar to those of the celestial race.
But he still can't completely change his ruthless and combative nature; when faced with a problem he can't solve, he still has to fight.
"Then so be it. I'll wait for you to come back."
Gong Shang probably thought what I said made sense, so he didn't force me, otherwise I would have been utterly humiliated today.
"good"
I nodded repeatedly, and it was only with great difficulty that I managed to get rid of the person.
Then some people started clamoring to compete with me, and I just followed their lead and dealt with them one by one.
The banquet had already been set out, and people were taking their seats one after another.
Those attending this banquet are mostly young talents of my demon race, noble sons who are expected to ascend to immortality in the future, and all of them will be pillars of my demon race.
Seeing their envious and admiring looks at me, I got a little carried away. It's a pity that I'm about to go to the Source of the Floating Pool, otherwise I could have taken Mo Han along to teach and enlighten me, and who knows, maybe a few of us could really ascend to godhood.
In this way, my demon race has gained some power in the Heavenly Court, and perhaps in the future we will be able to stand on equal footing with the Heavenly Race.
Since the battle between my demon race and the foreign race at the source of the floating pool 300,000 years ago, our population has dwindled.
She was no longer as radiant as before and had no choice but to rely on the Celestial Clan for survival.
It's really embarrassing, but being weak has its advantages. At least for the next 600,000 years, my demon race will shed less blood and sacrifice on the battlefield outside the realm.
"Congratulations on Your Highness's ascension to the Divine Lord realm. Lin Shen would like to offer Your Highness a toast."
Lin Shen, whom I usually dislike, also came today and toasted me with a blank expression.
His face was arrogant, showing absolutely no respect.
He is also the only son of Lin Liang, one of the ten Demon Lords of my Demon Clan, and he follows the path of a domineering and wealthy man.
She was a wealthy and beautiful ice queen, with a face that could be described as having eyebrows like autumn water and bones like white jade. Her eyes could steal people's souls with a single glance. However, she had a cold and arrogant personality, but many women were still attracted to her and loved her to death.
Unfortunately, he's not only cold-hearted but also has obsessive-compulsive disorder, especially hating being touched by women. No woman is allowed within three feet of him, or he'll kill them all; he's extremely violent.
He is the one among my demon race who lives most like a true demon.
"Young Master Lin is offering a toast, and I, Your Highness, shall drink it all in one gulp."
With that, I raised the wine glass in front of me and drank it all in one gulp.
Those who came to the banquet, seeing this, all toasted me. By the time the banquet ended, I was almost unconscious from drinking.
I vaguely remember that Mo Han carried me back to Feiyu Pavilion.
Gu Changzhou kept chattering away on my head, then it seemed that Mo Han discovered him and took him away.
When I woke up again, I was already in Liushang Palace.
Mo Han was summoned by his maternal grandfather, the Heavenly Emperor, to the Divine Firmament Palace to help with preparations for the newly promoted Divine Lord's journey to the Source of the Floating Pool.
He left his top general, Chong Cang, to guard the gate for me.
With nothing to do, I decided to wander around, but unexpectedly...
Last time, the gates of Liushang Palace were destroyed, and there wasn't even a single god in Liushang Palace left. But today, it's quite lively. In the Peach and Plum Garden, the Fanghua Water Pavilion is full of people, a far cry from its usual desolate and lonely state.
Even in the usually closed and abandoned Tingxue Tower, many deities practice their martial arts.
According to Chong Cang, these deities are all minor gods who have just ascended to immortality, just like me.
They will temporarily stay in Liushang Palace, and three days later they will follow Mo Han to the source of the floating pool. It is said that it was personally suggested by the Heavenly Emperor's maternal grandfather.
That's strange. The Heavenly Court is such a vast place, why would they choose to house these deities in the Flowing Sorrow Palace?
