Because we don't know when Sikong Ren will emerge from seclusion.
Pei Zhi asked the Left Protector about the duration of Sikong Ren's previous seclusion sessions.
After calculating the time, Pei Zhi put on her red wedding dress and put on her headdress ahead of schedule.
Pei Zhi thought that Sikong Ren would be pleasantly surprised to see her like this.
The Left Protector rushed into the inner hall: "Something terrible has happened!"
"What's wrong?"
Gao Shijie ran in right after him, "Uncle Zhong is here. Sikong Ren is still in seclusion. Come with me first."
Sikong Ren is in seclusion. At this moment, no one in the demon realm can stop Zhong Changyuan.
Gao Shijie could only take Pei Zhi and run away first, letting the demons of the demon realm hold them off for a while.
Pei Zhi asked, "Where did you run off to?"
Gao Shijie hurriedly said, "Go to the border of the demon realm, or return to the cultivation realm. If all else fails, the demon realm will also work."
The Left Protector also knelt down and pleaded, "Your subordinate will swear to buy time for the Queen, even at the cost of his life."
"Moreover, I heard that Uncle Zhong seems to have advanced to the Mahayana stage."
Gao Shijie added, "Therefore, many cultivators from the cultivation world have come this time..."
Gao Shijie originally thought that Sect Leader Pei would never get involved.
After all, Pei Zhi is his daughter.
However, after Zhong Changyuan's cultivation level improved, the cultivation world might think that they would definitely win.
Therefore, they were willing to lend Zhong Changyuan a hand, and many elites from various sects came over.
In this battle, the demon realm is in imminent danger.
Pei Zhi raised an eyebrow. It seemed that Zhong Changyuan's cultivation had actually improved because of her escape.
The cultivation world will surely see a surge in morale due to Zhong Changyuan's advancement in cultivation.
In contrast, the demon realm is leaderless, with the demon lord in seclusion, but they have no choice but to fight to the bitter end.
"Let's go, I'll go see what Master is planning to do."
Without a second thought, Gao Shijie blocked Pei Zhi's path, saying, "Even if you leave now, it won't make a difference."
With all the elites of the cultivation world present, it was no longer just a matter between Zhong Changyuan, Sikong Ren, and Pei Zhi.
The cultivation world maintains peace with the demon world not because it doesn't want to fight, but because it fears defeat and the associated risks.
Previously, Zhong Changyuan had already defeated Sikong Ren once.
This time, Zhong Changyuan has advanced to the Mahayana stage.
Pei Zhi replied matter-of-factly, "Even though it's useless, I can't just go out and watch the battle? Anyway, they won't kill me."
Gao Shijie glanced at the Left Protector and asked in a low voice, "You're not planning to go back with Uncle Zhong, are you?"
This fits his and Pei Zhi's personalities perfectly—timid and afraid of trouble.
Realizing something was wrong, they quickly changed the cards.
But... it was Pei Zhi's arrival that plunged the demon realm into this storm.
Pei Zhi's choice was certainly not wrong, but it was somewhat unethical.
Pei Zhi lifted the hem of her wedding dress, "I just wanted my father and my master to see if I look good in this wedding dress."
Gao Shijie stared at Pei Zhi's back, and for some reason, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
Pei Zhi's words are so cryptic, what is she planning to do?
At the edge of the demon realm, Liu Meiniang and a group of her peers led the way.
It wasn't that their father was afraid of death, but rather that their father had been imprisoned by Sikong Ren.
Therefore, the current situation in the demon realm cannot be described simply as bad.
With the Demon Lord absent, not a single leader dared to remain silent.
Most of the elders were imprisoned by the Demon Lord, so only Liu Meiniang and her group, who were still incompetent, were sent to the battlefield.
Nevertheless, they showed no sign of backing down.
They cannot back down; they cannot allow the face of the demon realm to be trampled on by the cultivation world.
The two groups stood separated by the stone tablet of the demon realm, neither advancing nor retreating.
However, if anyone from the cultivation world dares to step onto the stone tablet of the demon realm, Liu Meiniang and the others will definitely use their magical weapons to drive them away.
Gao Feng asked curiously, "Why hasn't Sikong Ren come out yet?"
"Could it be that they're hiding in the shadows, planning to ambush us?"
"Very likely. They are all very cunning demons. Look at the leaders, they are all young demons. We didn't see any of the old ones."
The sect leaders were discussing amongst themselves, while Pei Tianming remained silent.
"Sect Leader Pei, what do you think?"
Pei Tianming was about to speak when someone beat him to it.
"What else can Sect Leader Pei think? He definitely doesn't want to fight. Anyway, whether the cultivation world or the demon world wins, they'll both be his son-in-law."
"The sect leader of Miaoyin Sect is right. Who is as lucky as Sect Leader Pei to have such a remarkable daughter?"
Pei Tianming's face turned red with embarrassment, and he angrily waved his sleeve, "What do you mean?"
Pei Tianming retorted, "If I didn't want to fight, why would I need to gather the disciples of Tianyuan Sect?"
"If the Sword Immortal hadn't advanced his cultivation, Sect Leader Pei would probably still be in seclusion, right?"
"Yes, I'm afraid we won't be able to see Sect Leader Pei either."
Pei Tianming was slightly embarrassed, realizing that what was said was true.
That's indeed the case.
Initially, Gao Feng and he shared the same idea: neither side would help the other.
In this way, no matter which side becomes his son-in-law, he will still be the father-in-law, and his position will not be threatened.
Pei Tianming did the same, but he was struck out by the heavenly lightning of Wuwang Peak.
Zhong Changyuan actually advanced, becoming the only Mahayana stage cultivator in the entire world.
Zhong Changyuan issued a challenge to the demon realm, and then everyone in the cultivation world voluntarily followed.
Gao Feng retorted, "If you all can't stand the way our Tianyuan Sect behaves, then you can just turn around and go home."
The sect leader of the Miaoyin Sect was about to say something when someone next to him tugged at his sleeve.
"Forget it, the Sword Immortal is still an elder of the Tianyuan Sect... Besides, Pei Zhi is Pei Tianming's daughter, let's save him some face."
The sect leader of the Miaoyin Sect thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case.
If they really defeat the demon realm and bring Pei Zhi back, then that old bastard Pei Tianming will truly become the sword immortal's father-in-law.
If you offend him, you'll probably face retribution later.
The sect leader of the Miaoyin Sect walked to Zhong Changyuan's side and respectfully asked, "Sword Immortal Zhong, how much longer shall we wait?"
When they arrived at the border between the demon realm and the cultivation realm, Zhong Changyuan said only one word: "Wait."
Then, Zhong Changyuan sat down to meditate and closed his eyes to rest.
They've been waiting for a while now, just standing here, staring at each other with the people from the demon realm.
"There is one hour left until the seven-day deadline."
The sect leader of the Miaoyin Sect was puzzled for a moment before he understood what was going on.
Zhong Changyuan issued a challenge to Sikong Ren, demanding that Pei Zhi be returned within seven days, or he would surely massacre the demon realm.
There is still one hour left until the deadline given by Zhong Changyuan.
Liu Meiniang's nemesis asked in a low voice, "What are they waiting for in the cultivation world?"
Liu Meiniang snorted, "He's probably thinking about how to die."
Her arch-enemy glanced at Liu Meiniang with surprise, even though she had always known that Liu Meiniang was arrogant and domineering.
It's unbelievable that even now, with them in this predicament, Liu Meiniang can still be so shameless.
Shouldn't they be the ones preparing to die?
