The woman walked to the front of the Demon Master's Palace and knocked on the palace gate.
A moment later, a handsome little demon emerged from the Demon Master's Palace. Upon seeing the woman, a smile immediately spread across his face, and he gave her a warm greeting.
"So it's Fairy Caiyun. May I ask what brings you to my Demon Master's Palace?"
Fairy Caiyun asked, "Is the Demon Master in the palace?"
The little demon nodded. "Master is currently cultivating in the palace. Do you wish to see him?"
Fairy Caixia nodded. "Go and inform her that I have come to pay my respects on the orders of Her Majesty."
The little demon dared not be negligent, for he certainly knew who the goddess mentioned by Fairy Caixia was.
That was the only saint among the demon race, supreme and noble...
"Please wait a moment, fairy, I will go and report to her immediately."
After saying that, the little demon hurriedly headed deeper into the Demon Master's Palace.
Before long, the little demon returned and led Fairy Caixia into the palace, where she met Ancestor Kunpeng.
At this moment, he was sitting on a futon, quietly watching Fairy Caixia.
Fairy Caixia stepped forward and bowed, "This disciple greets the Demon Master."
The Kunpeng Ancestor did not have a very good impression of the Nuwa Palace lineage.
After all, back then, in order to help Fuxi attain the Dao and become the Heavenly Emperor, the Goddess Nuwa specifically invited Hu Le to come and steal the Hetu Luoshu that he had only recently acquired and hadn't even had a chance to warm up, causing him to lose a top-tier innate spiritual treasure from the primordial world.
How could he not deeply hate these people...?
However, no matter how resentful he was, these three were people he couldn't afford to offend.
Now that Nuwa's disciple has come to his door, he still has to feign politeness and courtesy.
"Why did the Empress summon you here?" Kunpeng Ancestor asked coldly, getting straight to the point.
Fairy Caixia took out a jade talisman and said calmly, "This is the Empress's edict. Everything the Empress instructed is contained within. You will know once you have seen it, Demon Master."
Upon hearing this, the Kunpeng Ancestor reached out and beckoned, and the jade talisman flew out from the palm of the Fairy of Colorful Clouds and landed in his hand.
He sent a divine thought into the jade talisman, read its contents, and couldn't help but frown.
"What's wrong, Demon Master? Is there something troubling you?"
"The Fairy of Colorful Clouds asked."
The Kunpeng Ancestor shook his head, pondered for a while, and still couldn't make up his mind.
Fairy Caixia smiled and said, "Does the Demon Master know that the Empress has already given instructions before we arrived? In this tribulation, as long as you act according to her orders, she will definitely do her best to help the Demon Master achieve the Hunyuan realm."
A smile finally appeared on the face of the Kunpeng Ancestor.
This is exactly what he wanted.
If the goddess Nuwa keeps her word, then what's wrong with him obeying her orders?
Besides, Nuwa was, after all, a Primordial Saint, and she held the Demon-Summoning Banner in her hand.
If you threaten him with his life and force him to do something, he wouldn't dare disobey, no matter how unwilling he is.
In any case, from beginning to end, he was just a cowardly person who was good at judging the situation and afraid of death...
Next, Fairy Caixia and Ancestor Kunpeng flew together through the air, leaving Beiming, crossing the North Sea, and heading towards Beiju Luzhou.
Along the way, they passed through the clouds, looking down at the magnificent landscape below.
Soon after, they finally arrived at a blessed land in the Northern Continent.
The area is characterized by rolling hills and swirling clouds and mist, resembling a fairyland.
Auspicious light and mist filled the mountains, and a strange fragrance wafted through the air, making people feel refreshed and relaxed.
Fairy Caixia and Ancestor Kunpeng landed on a mountain peak. Looking around, they saw exotic flowers and rare herbs flourishing all around, ancient trees reaching the sky, and clear springs flowing gently.
In the distance, some rare and exotic animals roam among the mountains and forests, adding a touch of mystery to the whole place.
Standing on the mountaintop, they can see even further into the distance, where the mountain range stretches endlessly, like a giant dragon coiled up.
Cranes occasionally flew across the sky, emitting clear and melodious calls.
Such beautiful scenery is intoxicating, as if you are in a dream world.
Just as the two descended from the mountaintop, the void in front of them rippled slightly, and an ancient demon saint emerged from it—it was Bai Ze.
After the three met, they exchanged greetings.
Bai Ze was very eager for Fairy Caixia's arrival.
He remained quite indifferent to the Kunpeng Ancestor.
Perhaps he's still blaming the Old Ancestor Kunpeng for deserting his post back then.
Immediately, he ushered the two into the depths of the void, into that truly blessed land.
Upon arriving at the magnificent and imposing Demon Emperor's Palace, the Demon Saint Bai Ze ordered his men to ring the ancient and heavy golden bell.
As the clear and melodious bell rang, it seemed as if the whole world trembled.
Immediately afterwards, dozens of demon saints appeared in the hall one after another like ghosts.
These great saints of the demon race each possessed boundless supernatural powers and extraordinary strength, and the aura emanating from them inspired awe.
Just by looking at them, one can feel the powerful foundation and strength of the demon race.
Without a doubt, they have become the backbone of the demon race, shouldering the heavy responsibility of protecting the glory and continuation of the demon race.
Once they had all arrived, Fairy Caixia immediately stood up and solemnly conveyed the decree of Goddess Nuwa.
It turns out that the goddess Nuwa planned to send the demon race to Mount Ling to assist the Buddhist sect in resisting foreign enemies.
This sudden decision surprised the demons and sages, but everyone understood that Nuwa's move must have a deeper meaning.
It seems that Goddess Nuwa was worried that the Buddhas of Mount Ling might not be able to cope with the upcoming challenges on their own, so she urgently dispatched the demon race to provide support.
The leader of this operation was none other than the Kunpeng Ancestor!
His reputation among the demon race is well-known and widely recognized.
Many demon saints deeply admired his extraordinary supernatural powers and magic, but they had many complaints about his personality and way of dealing with the world, and some even said they hated him.
Nevertheless, when they learned that the demon army would be led by the Kunpeng Ancestor, the demons were extremely disgusted, but on the surface they dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction.
The reason is simple: they all know that among the few powerful beings left in the demon race, besides Nuwa, only Kunpeng Ancestor is worth mentioning.
People like Bai Ze, the Demon Saint, may hold a respectable position among the demon race, but in terms of cultivation attainments, they are far inferior to him.
In this way, they would naturally be unqualified to lead the demon army to fight against the demonic forces.
They dared not disobey Nuwa's command, and immediately accepted the sage's edict. They invited the Kunpeng Ancestor to the main seat, kowtowed to their commander, and then summoned the elite demons from the mountains.
Over the years, thanks to the dedicated efforts of Bai Ze and his companions, the demon race has recovered some of its vitality.
After all, although the demon race is no longer in its prime, it is not destined to lose its fortune due to the cycle of reincarnation.
As long as their fortune remains, not only will their clan not be wiped out, but their vitality will eventually be restored.
When the demon army left the blessed land and headed towards Mount Ling, Fairy Caixia also left Beiju Luzhou and returned to the Jinxiu Tianwa Palace to report back to Goddess Nuwa.
As a disciple of a sage, it's not her place to risk her life for the time being...
