Second Brother, I'm Doing This for Your Own Good Too-Let Me Slap You Twice!

Li Yuan watched Hou Yi lead the many Witch Race members away, feeling immensely satisfied.

Sure enough, in the early days of the Primordial World, when conflicting interests had yet to become deeply entangled,

everyone was still quite simple and sincere with one another.

Hou Yi was not yet the Hou Yi who would draw his bow and fire arrows at the slightest disagreement.

At the same time, he casually wrote all of this down in his Diary.

Even if the Demon Court truly continued with the Witch Slaughtering Sword plan, with the Witch Race pressuring them now, they could only deal with the Witch Race first. It was an open scheme.

Within a side hall of the Eight Scenery Palace, Laozi glanced at the Diary with a smile in his eyes and thought to himself,

This silly child probably still doesn't know that we have already dealt with the Demon Court's Witch Slaughtering Sword plan.

We only need to crush it while the plan is still in its infancy.

Still, it truly comforts me as his master that Yuan'er possesses such foresight.

He had always excelled in deduction and planning. Now it seemed that Li Yuan had inherited a little of it.

Being able to reach this level was already extremely impressive.

To a certain extent, Li Yuan's method could also temporarily resolve the conflict between the Wu-Demon races.

Human Race—I said before that they could become a point of conflict between the Wu-Demon races, or a point of reconciliation between them. But how could they make the Demon Court see the benefits of the Human Race beyond the Witch Slaughtering Sword?

That was what Li Yuan had been considering. The Wu-Demon races were the black and white halves within Taiji.

As for the Human Race, they could serve as the central point harmonizing Taiji's yin and yang.

A smile still appeared on Laozi's face as he silently thought,

With our visit to the Demon Court to protect the Human Race, Fellow Daoist Dijun will surely realize that the Human Race is extraordinary.

And Fellow Daoist Fuxi, after being slapped twice by Third Brother, probably won't be so extreme anymore.

*ε=(´ο｀*))) Sigh, weren't such extreme thoughts themselves a kind of inner demon, a demonic obstruction?*

Within the Eight Scenery Palace, the Three Pure Ones had different thoughts after reading the Diary, though they remained outwardly impassive.

Laozi rarely smiled at Tongtian and praised him.

"Third Brother, those two slaps you gave Fuxi at the Demon Court were well done. They shattered Fellow Daoist Fuxi's inner demonic obstruction."

Tongtian wore a bewildered expression. It was the first time his eldest brother had praised him for fighting.

Could slapping someone really shatter the demonic obstruction in their heart?

Excitement appeared on his face as he stared intently at Yuanshi's profile, his hands itching to move.

Yuanshi, whose senses were exceptionally sharp, suddenly turned to meet his gaze and asked with a frown,

"What do you want, Third Brother?"

Tongtian answered eagerly,

"Second Brother, I'm doing this for your own good too. Let me slap you twice."

Yuanshi helplessly shook his head and sighed, then slowly raised his hand.

Slap! Slap!

"Ah, Second Brother! Second Brother, stop hitting me! I know I was wrong, Second Brother! Dear Second Brother!"

"..."

The Human Race found several quick-witted, eloquent matchmakers.

They were responsible for arranging marriages between the Wu-Demon races.

Everything had to be fair, just, and open. If the two parties were unsuitable, all gifts brought had to be returned and could not be kept privately.

As a result, a great many Wu-Demon clansmen had recently married one another.

"Come, drink!"

Li Yuan and several of his fellow disciples spent every day attending wedding banquets after wedding banquets.

Although the Primordial World still lacked seasonings, food prepared with immortal arts was still delicious.

"Senior Brother, pass me that pork knuckle."

Xuandu helplessly handed the pork knuckle to Li Yuan, who devoured it heartily without regard for his image.

Hou Yi then brought the groom and bride over to offer a toast.

"For the Witch Race and Human Race to marry so smoothly, we truly have to thank you for this idea, little friend! Hahahaha!"

"I'll drain my cup. Drink as you please."

Li Yuan and the others also stood and raised their cups in congratulations.

"May the newlyweds enjoy harmonious union for a yuanhui!"

If you can't find it by searching the book title, try searching for the author. It may simply have been renamed!

The original blessing had been "a hundred years of harmonious union," but ordinary people in the Primordial World could live for several hundred years.

Wouldn't that be outright cursing them to divorce early?

One yuanhui in the Primordial World was 129,600 years.

Therefore, wishing them harmonious union for a yuanhui was much more appropriate.

At the same time, the Human Race and Witch Race's activities were keenly noticed by the Demon Court.

Naturally, neither side concealed their intermarriages.

Within the Demon Court's grand hall, Dijun frowned as he listened to the report from Strategist Baize.

"You mean the Human Race and Witch Race are intermarrying, and doing so with great propriety?"

Strategist Baize nodded slightly with a complicated expression.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this minister personally went to see it. It is absolutely true."

Dijun slammed his hand onto the table and rose in shock, shouting loudly,

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! The Witch Race are all brainless barbarians."

"Their brains are made of muscle, do you understand? Made of muscle—they don't have any brains at all."

"Since when did those crude louts know how to conduct themselves with propriety?"

Baize sighed and replied,

"This minister learned that it seems to be the Humanity Sect's direct disciple, Li Yuan, who intends to promote marriages between the Witch Race and Human Race."

"The Witch Race being so reasonable now is likely also Li Yuan's idea."

"Xuandu and Li Yuan are both Humanity Sect disciples and were born into the Human Race. The Humanity Sect is centered on humanity, so it is understandable that they would use the Witch Race's strength to support the Human Race."

Dijun narrowed his eyes slightly before suddenly waving his hand and shouting,

"No, this matter is definitely not as simple as you and I imagine."

"The earlier arrival of the four Saints was enough to prove the Human Race's importance."

"There must be some great secret hidden within the Human Race."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi wore a puzzled expression as he glanced sideways at Dijun.

"Big Brother, even I can see that. You can't be that foolish, can you?"

Dijun scolded him in exasperation,

"Shut up! You've scattered all the Emperor's dignity I painstakingly accumulated!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi helplessly pursed his lips and thought to himself,

With the Chaos Bell, what dignity is even needed? One strike of the Chaos Bell, and everyone becomes obedient.

He suddenly came to his senses and asked,

"How are things progressing between Big Brother and the two sisters-in-law from the Lunar Star?"

Dijun casually waved his hand and answered with a smile,

"What is your elder brother's status? A peak Quasi-Sage, one of the first graduates of the Purple Cloud Palace, Demon Emperor of the Demon Court, overflowing with charm. We will marry on an auspicious day."

"No, stop distracting your elder brother. We are discussing the Human Race and Witch Race intermarrying."

"Baize, you are clever. Since the Witch Race and Human Race are intermarrying, our Demon Race should intermarry with the Human Race as well. You will be responsible for it."

Baize nodded slightly and agreed. He had also been thinking of arranging marriages between the Demon Race and Human Race.

After saying that, he brought several talented younger members of the Demon Race under his command down to the mortal realm.

Just then, Li Yuan had finished attending the wedding banquet and returned to the Ancestral Hall.

"Demon Court Advisor Baize requests an audience with the Saints' direct disciples."

Li Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly and thought to himself,

Could the Demon Court be about to begin the Witch Slaughtering Sword plan? Are they planning to be courteous first, then resort to force?

He grew nervous, but with the Witch Race currently drawing the firepower, there was probably still a chance to move between them and resolve the Wu-Demon conflict.

Li Yuan and several fellow disciples appeared outside the Ancestral Land.

"May I ask why Senior has come to our Human Race?"

Baize looked at the Saints' direct disciples before him and said with a smile,

"As expected of the Saints' direct disciples, you are all outstanding talents. The Demon Court has come with sincerity and wishes to—"

"Intermarry!"
