Having received Hongjun's confirmation, everyone present sank into grim silence. Clearly, this was something they had never expected. After all, as powerful existences among the Chaos Gods and Demons, they had once been beings capable of contending with Pangu to some extent. It could be said that none of them should have survived Pangu's targeting.
This was also why they had been unable to control their expressions upon learning that Yang Mei could still reincarnate and cultivate anew in the Primordial Land. None of them had known this news, yet Hongjun knew of Yang Mei's existence. Though they did not know how Hongjun had learned of it, it showed that his preparations and hidden contingencies far surpassed theirs.
Knowing that Yang Mei still existed was good news for them. After all, if Yang Mei aided them in their coming battle against Shen Ni, their chances of victory would undoubtedly rise greatly.
Luohu seemed to think of something and asked Hongjun, "Since Fellow Daoist Yang Mei has also reincarnated and cultivated anew, and is willing to join us against Shen Ni, why is there no sign of Yang Mei in this cooperation?"
Hongjun was not surprised by Luohu's question. The moment he revealed that Yang Mei still existed, he had known someone would ask it. Unhurriedly, Hongjun said, "Fellow Daoist Yang Mei is, after all, a Space God and Demon—an existence more powerful than any of us. If the Ferocious Beasts had not already occupied half the Primordial Land, and if Shen Ni's current realm were not unknown, Fellow Daoist Yang Mei likely would not have cooperated with us."
Hearing Hongjun's explanation, Luohu and the others relaxed, a glimmer of understanding appearing in their eyes. After all, this was the attitude one would expect from a supreme Chaos God and Demon
