You Are the Demon Emperor! Lu Changsheng, I Really Am Not the Demon Emperor!
Inside the altar of the demon realm.
Along the way, Lu Changsheng had a detailed conversation with Peacock Bright King about the Demon Emperor's Heart.
Liu Qingfeng walked at the front. Lu Changsheng did not intend to let everyone know that he and Liu Qingfeng were fellow disciples for the time being, so the two pretended that they were not very familiar with each other, and that it was at most a matter of gratitude for saving his life.
After the Peacock Bright King explained the matter of the Demon Emperor's Heart, Lu Changsheng finally understood how to obtain the Demon Realm Heavenly Dao Mark.
In the Six Realms, each Heavenly Dao Mark has its own will, and they need successors to fulfill their requirements.
The Heavenly Dao Mark in the Buddhist realm is the completion of cause and effect in the underworld.
The Heavenly Dao Mark of the Underworld establishes the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
As for the Heavenly Dao Mark of the Demon Realm, it is quite strange, because according to the Peacock Bright King, the Heavenly Dao Mark of the Demon Realm was obtained by the Demon Realm Master a long time ago.
When the Demon Realm Master reincarnated, he told the Demon Realm Heavenly Dao Mark that if he appeared in his next life, and the Lord felt that he was not good enough for this life, then he should not acknowledge him as his master, but should seek someone else.
That's right, it's that domineering.
Upon hearing this, the Peacock Bright King couldn't help but marvel.
"My Demon Race Emperor is of unyielding spirit, with ambitions that can conquer the eight wastelands. He was afraid that he would become a good-for-nothing after reincarnation, so he made such a vow. The Heavenly Dao Mark of the Demon Realm also sensed this and waited for the Demon Emperor through countless reincarnations. Now that the Demon Lord has returned, I believe that he will definitely be able to inherit the Demon Realm. It seems that the Demon Emperor was overthinking it."
The Peacock Bright King said this.
Lu Changsheng fell silent for a moment.
Because he really wanted to say that the Demon Emperor hadn't really thought much about it.
But Lu Changsheng ultimately didn't say those words.
After all, those words were quite hurtful.
"In other words, if Qing Feng wants to become the Demon Lord, he must inherit the Demon Emperor's Heart?"
Lu Changsheng asked.
"Yes, Qing Feng? Is the Demon Lord's name Qing Feng?"
Peacock Bright King asked curiously.
"Yes, he just told me." Lu Changsheng nodded, appearing quite natural.
"However, before inheriting the Demon Emperor's Heart, we still need to meet the Supreme Elder of our Demon Realm."
The Peacock Bright King said this.
"The Supreme Elder?"
Lu Changsheng became curious.
"Yes, in my demon realm there is a Supreme Elder whose cultivation is unparalleled. He reached the Immortal Emperor Realm many years ago, but he is already old and is keeping his breath to wait for the Demon Emperor's return."
The Peacock Bright King spoke frankly.
This surprised Lu Changsheng somewhat, as he hadn't expected that there would be a Celestial Emperor-level powerhouse in the Demon Realm.
It seems that every world has powerful beings at the level of Immortal Emperors. I wonder if the Demon Realm has any.
As for the Immortal Realm, the human race has no Immortal Emperor-level powerhouses, but the divine race has quite a few Immortal Emperor-level powerhouses.
And so, the group soon arrived at the Ancient Demon Realm Altar.
The altar was magnificent, with strange rocks standing tall. With Lu Changsheng's current mastery of formations, he immediately realized that it was a Life Extending Array, designed to prolong a person's lifespan.
"We pay our respects to the Supreme Elder."
The leading demon king spoke, kneeling respectfully before the altar, and the other demon kings followed suit.
Lu Changsheng did not need to bow. He was not a cultivator from the demon realm, and as the Demon Realm Master, he did not need to bow because of this status.
Liu Qingfeng stood in front of the demon kings. As the Demon Realm Master, he did not need to bow.
At this moment, Liu Qingfeng was so excited that he couldn't speak.
When Liu Qingfeng ascended to immortality, he couldn't quite grasp the concept. After all, he was a human cultivator, and the idea of him becoming the Demon Realm Master naturally caused him some resistance.
After all, I am a human being.
But after Lu Changsheng recounted a long story, Liu Qingfeng suddenly wondered, what was wrong with being the Demon Realm Master?
Look at Xu Jian and Li Ran. Back in the Lower Realm, they were Holy Son beings, people I had to look up to and often envied.
Looking back at the Purple Azure Holy Lord and the Shu Gate Holy Lord, I should have respectfully addressed them as seniors.
As a result, after ascending to the immortal realm, he ended up with such an ending.
But I am different. As long as I become the Demon Realm Master, I can at least roam freely in the demon realm, if not all six realms.
Wealth and glory, and meteoric success, are just a step away.
Having figured this out, Liu Qingfeng has fully accepted his identity as the Demon Realm Master.
Anyway, you won't go hungry or be beaten, and you can even act like a tyrant. Isn't that good?
What more could you ask for to be satisfied?
Previously, he was mainly unable to grasp the concept, but now that he has, Liu Qingfeng is so excited that he can't speak.
Just then, an extremely old voice rang out.
"Has the Demon Lord returned?"
The sound seemed to come from High Antiquity times, filled with a sense of vicissitude.
Before the demon kings could answer, the voice continued, sounding like it was talking to itself.
"I can feel it. The Demon Lord has returned. The former Demon Emperor has finally returned."
Within the ancient altar, a figure appeared. It was an old man who looked quite ordinary, but the more ordinary his appearance, the more extraordinary he was.
Although the old man was old, his eyes still revealed the aura of a strong person.
He glanced at the crowd, and for a moment appeared extremely excited.
"Demon Emperor!"
He cried out, tears streaming down his face.
"I am here!"
Liu Qingfeng was also affected by this emotion. Although he couldn't cry, Liu Qingfeng felt saddened when he thought about his father having a second child.
"Demon Emperor!"
The Demon Lord's Supreme Elder walked over with great excitement. His steps were trembling, and his eyes revealed indescribable emotions.
He was a powerful figure who followed the Demon Emperor back then, and he was loyal to the Demon Emperor. Otherwise, he wouldn't have waited here for so long.
Seeing the Demon Emperor return now, it's only natural that I'm moved to tears.
"I am here."
Liu Qingfeng took a deep breath, his eyes reddening. Although he still couldn't shed tears, at least he had expressed his emotions.
The demon kings were all thrilled. Liu Qingfeng had directly gained the approval of the Supreme Elder, which was a good thing for them as well.
Soon, the Supreme Elder of the Demon Race descended shakily from the altar.
Liu Qingfeng was incredibly excited as he went to greet the elder. He wanted to help him up, but to his surprise, the Supreme Elder the Demon Race bypassed Liu Qingfeng and ran towards Lu Changsheng with tears in his eyes.
Liu Qingfeng: "???"
The demon kings. "???"
Peacock Bright King: "???"
Ryoma: "???"
Shan Ting: "???"
Lu Changsheng: "???"
Everyone was stunned.
Lu Changsheng was also a little confused.
The Supreme Elder of the Demon Race looked at Lu Changsheng with tears in his eyes.
"Demon Emperor, after countless reincarnations, I have finally waited for you. Waaaaah, do you still remember me?"
The Supreme Elder the Demon Race wept bitterly, as if Lu Changsheng were a long-lost relative.
"Huh? I'm not the Demon Emperor."
Lu Changsheng answered somewhat blankly.
"No, you are the Demon Emperor."
The Supreme Elder of the Demon Race shook his head and said while crying.
"Elder, he really is not the Demon Emperor."
"Yes, Elder, he is not the Demon Emperor."
"Elder, you may have misunderstood."
The demon kings felt incredibly embarrassed, but they had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain.
"Impossible! You're trying to fool me. He is the Demon Emperor. I've been through thick and thin with the Demon Emperor. I'd recognize him even if he were ashes. Don't try to lie to me."
The Supreme Elder of the Demon Race has determined that Lu Changsheng is the Demon Emperor.
"Elder, I am really not the Demon Emperor."
Lu Changsheng smiled bitterly.
"Demon Emperor, I understand that you don't recognize me because you lost your memories in the cycle of reincarnation. But I recognize you. You are the Demon Emperor. You must be the Demon Emperor."
The Supreme Elder of the Demon Race was convinced that Lu Changsheng was the Demon Emperor.
This made Liu Qingfeng extremely sad.
"Oh dear, Elder, Fellow Daoist Changsheng is not the Demon Emperor, he is the Demon Realm Master."
"Yes, he is the Demon Realm Master, Elder, please don't misunderstand."
All the demon kings spoke up.
"What? Demon Emperor, you've actually unified the Demon Realm? Demon Emperor, you're truly a powerful man."
The Supreme Elder of the Demon Race said with great excitement.
Lu Changsheng: ""
The demon kings:
"Oh dear, it's all a misunderstanding, Elder! He really isn't the Demon Emperor, really!"
"Yes, he really isn't the Demon Emperor. Although I wish he were, he really isn't."
The demon kings explained, and although their words were unpleasant, they stung Qing Feng deeply.
"What are you saying? What do you mean by hoping for immortality is the Demon Emperor's doing?"
The Peacock Bright King spoke, looking righteously at the Demon King who had just spoken.
Hearing this, Liu Qingfeng felt a little better, but the Peacock Bright King's next words made Qing Feng even worse.
"Even though what you said is true, you can only say it behind someone's back. The Demon Emperor is still here, how can you speak so recklessly?"
The Peacock Bright King spoke very frankly.
These words made Liu Qingfeng even more upset.
Let me just die.
I will no longer be the Demon Lord.
I want to die.
Liu Qingfeng was almost in tears.
"Are you trying to fool this old man because you think I'm old and senile?"
The Supreme Elder of the Demon Race said angrily.
He immediately recognized Lu Changsheng as the Demon Lord, the brightest star in the crowd. If he wasn't the Demon Lord, who was?
"No, no, Elder, you've really misunderstood this time. This is the Demon Realm Master, the Lord of the Underworld, the Lord of the Buddha Realm, and the Lord of the Human Realm. He is definitely not the Demon Realm Master."
"Yes, yes, he is really not the Demon Realm Master."
"Elder, how could we dare to lie to you?"
The demon kings were truly speechless.
"What?! Demon Emperor, you actually conquered the Buddhist Realm, the Underworld, and the Human Realm?! Wow!!!! You're almost unifying the Six Realms?! Demon Emperor, you're amazing!"
The misunderstanding deepened, and the demon kings were truly at a loss for words.
"Senior, I am indeed not the Demon Emperor. You have really misunderstood."
Lu Changsheng said very seriously.
If Liu Qingfeng weren't the Demon Realm Master, he might have taken the title, but the Demon Emperor is indeed Liu Qingfeng, so he wouldn't stoop to fighting his Junior Brother for the position.
However, upon hearing this, the Supreme Elder the Demon Race shook his head.
"If you are not the Demon Emperor, then who is?"
"Are you the Demon Emperor?"
The Supreme Elder of the Demon Race looked at the dragon horse.
The latter shook his head.
"Then are you the Demon Emperor?"
He then looked at Shan Ting and asked.
"No."
Shan Ting shook her head.
Immediately afterwards, the Supreme Elder the Demon Race looked at the powerful demon kings, including the Peacock Bright King, and asked them the same questions.
Nobody dared to answer.
Liu Qingfeng tidied his appearance and waited for the Supreme Elder the Demon Race to ask him questions.
However, the Supreme Elder of the Demon Race looked at Liu Qingfeng and then sneered.
"Don't tell me this bastard is the Demon Emperor? If he is the Demon Emperor, then there's nothing more to say, our demon realm can just wait to be unified by someone else."
The Supreme Elder of the Demon Race looked at Liu Qingfeng, his murky eyes filled with sneer.
These words made Liu Qingfeng, who was full of expectations, feel the cruelty of the demon realm once again.
Qing Feng cried.
He didn't want to live anymore.
Is that how you talk?
Liu Qingfeng was truly miserable. He felt like he was always just a supporting star next to Lu Changsheng, but he couldn't leave Lu Changsheng, the sun. It was so painful.
"Elder, you know what, he really is the Demon Emperor."
"Elder, we really didn't lie to you, he really is the Demon Emperor."
"This is our Qing Feng Demon Emperor."
The demon kings, including Peacock Bright King, spoke up. Although they didn't want to admit it, this was indeed the Demon Realm Master.
"Heh, if he were the Demon Emperor, I would have eaten this altar on the spot. Don't try to fool me. In short, I don't believe what you're saying."
The Supreme Elder of the Demon Race simply refused to believe it.
Upon hearing this, the crowd gave him strange looks.
They glanced at the altar, then at the Supreme Elder of the Demon Race. They had something to say, but ultimately remained silent.
"Elder, why don't we bring out the Demon Emperor's Heart? Then the Demon Emperor's Heart can identify who is the Demon Emperor and who isn't. What do you think?"
The Peacock Bright King proposed an idea, and said this.
Upon hearing this, the other demon kings all nodded in agreement.
"Okay, okay, that's a good suggestion."
"I also think the suggestion is good."
"Yes, once you understand the Demon Emperor's Heart, you'll understand immediately."
The demon kings all spoke up.
The Demon Emperor's Heart is the heart left behind when the Demon Emperor was reincarnated.
In other words, if Liu Qingfeng is truly the Demon Emperor, then the Demon Emperor's Heart will inevitably choose Liu Qingfeng; this is the most direct way to identify the Demon Emperor.
Upon hearing this, the Supreme Elder the Demon Race nodded.
However, he didn't doubt it. Instead, he said, "Indeed, we need to bring out the Demon Emperor's Heart. Your Majesty, please be careful later, as the process of refining the Demon Emperor's Heart is somewhat troublesome."
"However, there are also benefits if you succeed in refining it. The Demon Emperor's Heart has been nurtured by supreme immortal energy, which brings immense benefits. Your Majesty, once you have refined the Demon Emperor's Heart, you will surely be able to unify the Six Realms."
The Supreme Elder of the Demon Race said this.
This really gave Lu Changsheng a headache.
However, the Supreme Elder of the Demon Race did not waste any words. He came to the foot of the altar and cast one hundred and eight Method Formulas in succession.
The altar trembled instantly.
A kaleidoscope of colors surrounded the altar.
Beams of celestial light shot into the sky, like fireworks bursting forth, a breathtaking sight.
Soon, a heart came into view.
Its heart is crystal clear, flowing with immortal divine blood. With each beat, it resonates with heaven and earth, a truly awe-inspiring sight.
It was as if this were the heart of heaven and earth, rather than the heart of the demon emperor.
At that moment, everyone looked at the heart with immense tension.
Liu Qingfeng was the most nervous.
He didn't necessarily want to compete with Lu Changsheng.
On the contrary, it's fine to give it to Lu Changsheng.
Mainly, he just wanted to prove himself.
It's not about proving how great I am.
Instead, it's about telling everyone that I will take back what I've lost with my own hands.
