Inside the Tongming Hall, Venus and Immortal Yuanfu engaged in a war of words with the demon saint Bai Ze.
Hu Le, seated high on his throne, was lost in thought, paying no heed to the argument between the three.
They exchanged a few more words, and Taibai Jinxing, seeing that Bai Ze Demon Saint was always avoiding the main issues and seemed unwilling to pay the price, was preparing to get something for nothing, gradually began to lose patience.
"Fellow Daoist! Fellow Daoist, after all this talk, I haven't seen a shred of sincerity in you. If this continues, I don't think we have anything to discuss. Why don't you go back and calm down for a while?"
"Then... what should we do with Ji Meng? Do you intend to leave him hanging like this forever? You should know that this is not only an insult to Ji Meng himself, but also a provocation to our entire demon race."
When Venus saw that Bai Ze, the demon saint, was repeating the same things over and over again, his last bit of patience had completely run out.
Using the demon race to threaten us? You must be out of your mind.
Do you really think our Heavenly Court is afraid of you?
If he were afraid, Hu Le wouldn't have impregnated Ji Meng inside the black dog and hung him outside the South Heavenly Gate as a public spectacle...
Taibai Jinxing stopped arguing and simply made a gesture to invite people out, saying, "Fellow Daoist, please."
This is practically an invitation to leave!
Bai Ze, the Demon Saint, looked at Hu Le with a grim expression.
Hu Le remained seated, motionless, without even lifting his eyelids.
"Good! Good! Don't regret it!"
Seeing this, Bai Ze, the demon saint, knew that there was nothing he could do by staying here, so he flicked his sleeve and strode out.
"I've come to see you off, fellow Daoist..."
Immortal Yuanfu smiled and accompanied the Demon Saint Bai Ze out of the Tongming Hall...
Seeing that there was no one else in the hall, Venus finally spoke up and asked, "Brother, is this really a good idea? I'm afraid the demon race won't let this go easily!"
Hu Le slowly opened his eyes. "So what? If they dare to send troops, we'll teach them a lesson. Go to the ancestral court of the human race and, in the name of my master, the Human Emperor, draw some troops from various tribes and await my orders."
If Di Jun dares to make any rash moves, he will not only mobilize the power of the Heavenly Court, but also drag the human race into it.
He simply refused to believe that with the combined power of the Heavenly Court and the human race, they couldn't subdue a single demon race.
In recent years, the demon race has successively absorbed the dragon, phoenix, and qilin races, seemingly increasing its power.
However, these three races are long gone and their strength was originally limited.
Over the years, the human race has developed peacefully and its strength has expanded even faster than that of the demon race, showing signs of becoming the largest race in the prehistoric world.
If the Heavenly Court were to mobilize its full strength, it could easily muster tens of millions of heavenly soldiers and generals. Not to mention, there are hundreds of thousands of star gods in the primordial starry sky, all of whom are quite powerful and, like the Twenty-Eight Constellations, are subjects under the jurisdiction and appointment of the Heavenly Court.
At that time, all it takes is a single order from Ziwei and his brothers to gather them together and form a large army...
If the demon race truly dares to overestimate their strength and launch an attack, Hu Le will not hesitate to teach them a heavy lesson, even if it means slaughtering mountains of corpses and seas of blood...
After giving his instructions, Hu Le reached out and summoned the Kongtong Seal, a treasure of the human race, which flew into his palm.
This treasure was left in the Jade Pool by Empress Jinde before she went into seclusion, specifically for him to use to command the human race.
After receiving the order, Venus took the Kongtong Seal, descended from the Heavenly Court, and went directly to the Zhou Mountain Human Ancestral Court. He summoned the elders, revealed the Kongtong Seal, and then stated Hu Le's request.
From the Great Elder Chisongzi down, upon seeing the Emperor's seal, the human race naturally would not disobey the order. They immediately notified the various large tribes, instructing them to organize a large army and await further orders.
...
Bai Ze, the Demon Saint, returned to the Sun Palace Demon Emperor Hall and met with Di Jun.
At this time, Kunpeng Ancestor and the others had already returned to their respective dojos, leaving only Di Jun in the hall.
After paying his respects, Bai Ze, the demon saint, recounted what had happened in the Heavenly Court, which immediately enraged Di Jun.
I never expected that the younger generation would really not give me any face at all!
However, he was still somewhat hesitant about whether to send a large army to attack the Heavenly Court.
Although Ji Meng is a great sage of the demon race, whether it is worthwhile to wage a great war against the Heavenly Court for his sake remains to be seen.
Of course, he was extremely unwilling to bow his head and apologize to Hu Le, and then present him with a gift as compensation...
Seeing the changing expressions on Di Jun's face, as if he were somewhat conflicted, Bai Ze, the Demon Saint, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Ji Meng's humiliation is not just his own affair, but concerns the honor and disgrace of our entire demon race. If we do not teach the Heavenly Court a lesson, what will the people of the prehistoric world think? What will my demon subjects think?"
Upon hearing this, Di Jun pondered for a moment before finally making up his mind.
But before that, he had to go to Phoenix Mountain to greet Fuxi and Nuwa.
After all, those two were also demon emperors. If he were to launch a large-scale attack on the Heavenly Court, he would need to inform them first.
So he rode on auspicious clouds and left the Sun Palace. In no time, he arrived at the foot of Phoenix Perch Mountain. Fuxi had already foreseen his arrival and had sent a boy to wait outside.
Led by the boy, Di Jun arrived at the palace where Fu Xi resided.
After exchanging greetings, the two took their seats as host and guest.
"Why haven't I seen Fellow Daoist Nuwa?" Di Jun couldn't help but ask when he didn't see Nuwa.
Fuxi smiled slightly and explained, "She went into seclusion after the return of the Yuanqi Tide and hasn't come out yet."
"Oh? Could it be that Fellow Daoist Nuwa also wants to compete for the Primordial Dao Fruit of this Yuanhui?" Di Jun asked in surprise.
Fuxi shook his head and chuckled, "Although my little sister's cultivation is not bad, she is still a bit short of achieving enlightenment in this era."
Di Jun was relieved upon hearing this. Although he knew that Nuwa's cultivation was above his, it was still too alarming that she was qualified to compete for the Primordial Dao Fruit in this Yuanhui.
He also couldn't believe that the gap between the two could be so large.
After all, he hasn't even touched the very edge of the Primordial Dao Fruit yet...
"Fellow Daoist is proficient in innate divine calculation, so you must have already guessed the purpose of my visit this time?" Di Jun went straight to the point.
The news about Ji Meng had already spread throughout the prehistoric world, and Fuxi was naturally aware of it. As for the discussion that Di Jun and others had held in the Demon Emperor's Palace, someone had already informed him of it.
So he asked, "What's wrong? The negotiations with Bai Ze after he went to the Heavenly Court didn't go smoothly."
Di Jun nodded slightly, his face serious. "It wasn't just unsuccessful! That junior didn't give us any face at all!"
Although Fuxi was a kind and benevolent man, he still snorted disdainfully in his heart after hearing Dijun's words.
Although he is a junior, he is now the rightful ruler of the Heavenly Court. Even if his cultivation and abilities are somewhat lacking, he still deserves the respect he is due.
Moreover, you know perfectly well that they have just taken control of the Heavenly Court and their foundation is unstable, yet you take the opportunity to cause them trouble and try to embarrass them.
How can you blame them for holding a grudge and not giving you face?
