"The Demon God Chi You?"
Qiongqi frowned slightly. Anyone born in China, whether human or demon, would know this resounding name.
This is a highly controversial and legendary figure.
In later generations, it was once called a demon god, a symbol of the darkest power.
"The patterns on these are the totems of the Chiyou tribe."
Yan Di remained calm as always. He carefully put away the fragment before continuing to look at Qiongqi and said, "I have investigated Zhao Yunlu's past. His life story is somewhat similar to Zhao Baogen, whom he is now targeting."
They were all ordinary people at first, but for some reason, they suddenly transformed from frail old men into enlightened masters, abandoning their wives, children, and vast fortunes, leaving behind the words "I'm going to travel the world" before disappearing without a trace.
When he reappeared later, he had become young again, but the world had changed drastically.
The story is captivating and full of twists and turns, but how credible do you think the part about his sudden enlightenment is?
Qiongqi let out a sneer, with an obvious hint of mockery, as if it had heard the biggest joke in the world, and responded with exceptional decisiveness: "I don't believe a single word of it!"
What sudden enlightenment? It's clearly just that someone has possessed your body!
"So what happened next? What else did you find out?"
Clearly, Qiongqi had already discerned the unspoken meaning in Yandi's words. Given this man's abilities, what he had discovered could not possibly be merely the surface-level information; there must be other key details that he was unaware of.
"Later? Later, Zhao Yunlu went to Sawadika and stayed there until several decades ago before returning to China." Emperor Yan did not show the information to Qiongqi, but simply mentioned it in a sentence.
"What is he going to Sawadika for?" Qiongqi's tone was clearly tinged with curiosity. That place was hardly a peaceful place, and it was also resource-poor. For someone who was used to living in China, going there was not a blessing, but rather a kind of self-exile.
"I don't know if you still remember that legend, but the three most popular evil arts in the world today were originally derived from the secret arts of the Chi You tribe."
Back then, after Chi You's decisive battle with the Yellow Emperor, his body was divided into five pieces and buried separately to suppress evil forces that were destined to bring disaster and calamity to the world!
However, for every step the righteous take, the evil takes ten. While some dream of eternally annihilating the demon god, others naturally dream of one day resurrecting and reborn him!
"That's a good idea, but resurrecting Chi You is no easy task!" After hearing Yan Di's summary, Qiongqi couldn't help but laugh: "Over the years, how many people in parallel worlds have worked hard for this goal, and what has been the result?"
Nine times out of ten, they either become your food because their greed has been satisfied, or they become my food because of excessive killing.
It's not surprising that such thoughts exist in this world!
After a pause, Qiongqi seemed to suddenly realize something: "Ah, I know! You want to help your little Pixiu sort this out, right?!"
These ferocious beasts don't care whether the world is corrupted by evil, or even whether the world collapses or not; it's none of their concern.
At worst, I'll just move on to another world and keep having fun!
But that little Pixiu was different.
Firstly, Pixiu is an auspicious beast, born to be an enemy of evil spirits, and a guardian of justice and courage. Its nature makes it impossible for it to remain uninvolved in such a world where evil spirits run rampant!
And the most crucial thing is that she should only be an adult now and does not have the strength to travel freely between different worlds like them.
Moreover, given the shamelessness of the Heavenly Dao in this world, it is highly likely that it will deceive them into sacrificing everything for the greater good, just as it once did with Bai Ze and those auspicious beasts!
So even though he was dissatisfied, the King of Hell had no choice but to compromise at this time to help maintain the stability of the world.
At least, the world can't collapse before the little Pixiu grows up!
"Fine, fine, you can do whatever you want! Just tell me, what do you want me to do!" Gu Qi immediately became obedient after being glanced at by Yan Di, raising his hands above his head in a gesture of surrender.
In order to continue to enjoy peace and security by following the Emperor of Hell, Gu Qi felt that any sacrifice now was worthwhile!
At least, he really didn't want to start off in a terrible way in every world again, like before...
As long as he can cling to Taotie's coattails, Gu Qi feels that his next world will definitely be promising!
While Yan Di and Gu Qi were exchanging opinions, Song Mengmeng was picked up by Hu Yue and taken to the place where her master and the others were staying, to meet the legendary Xuanmen masters of the Chinese nation.
Exorcists are simply a general term used in this world to refer to people with supernatural abilities.
In China, people still prefer to say they come from the Xuanmen (Taoist sect).
However, with the world's spiritual energy gradually depleting, the Xuanmen sect can no longer find its former glory. If these so-called experts were in the beginning, they probably wouldn't even be able to enter the inner sect of the sect!
Song Mengmeng followed Hu Yue into the private room. Without even looking up, she had already figured out the strength of everyone in the room and couldn't help but silently complain in her heart.
No wonder Emperor Yan couldn't help but laugh when she heard that she and Hu Yue were coming to meet these big shots.
Back then, she asked Yan Di what he was laughing at, but that wicked beast wouldn't say. Now it seems that his silent laughter was clearly mocking her for being naive and ignorant!
I'm so angry!
The young girl was indignant, but she didn't lose her composure. From an outsider's perspective, her silence made her appear more calm and composed, which inadvertently earned her more points in the impression.
Even with the added points for good impressions, the girl's age and appearance still surprised the bigwigs sitting inside.
Based on Hu Yue's reports, they had always assumed she would be a reclusive master of some age, but now, upon closer inspection, she was just an ordinary, unremarkable young girl...
This fueled the discontent and anger of several sect elders who already harbored resentment towards the Qingcheng Mountain sect—she was just a young girl, why did she deserve such high treatment?!
It's obvious that Qingcheng Mountain is deliberately showing favoritism!
So, with this idea in mind, some people with bad tempers couldn't hold back any longer. Before Hu Yue could even come in and introduce Song Mengmeng to everyone, an old man with a goatee slammed his hand on the table and glared angrily at Hu Yue, saying, "Yue girl, what time is it now? How could you bring this shady character here?!"
Didn't you say you have a powerful mentor helping you? Why don't you invite that person over to meet us this time?!
