In this world, people were not naturally friendly toward the Demon Race.
Even under Yuanshi Tianzun, Shen Gongbao, as a member of the Demon Race, had suffered just as much discrimination.
In Shen Gongbao's own words, he had indeed been the most diligent among Yuanshi's many disciples, and his cultivation was even higher than Real Person Taiyi's. Yet among the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chan, there had been no place for Shen Gongbao.
Look at Real Person Taiyi. Though he bore Shen Gongbao no great malice, he truly was lazy, gluttonous, and addicted to drink, even causing countless troubles because of it. Yet even so, he still received Yuanshi's favor. The matter of the Spirit Pearl and Demon Pill had been entrusted to him. Yuanshi Tianzun's implication was that if this matter succeeded, the final Golden Immortal seat would belong to Real Person Taiyi...
This had naturally dealt Shen Gongbao a tremendous blow, which was why he had kept causing trouble.
Of course, Shen Gongbao had not caused trouble blindly. He had only wanted to prove that he was stronger than Real Person Taiyi. He had planned to use the Spirit Pearl to cultivate Ao Bing, allowing Ao Bing to replace Nezha in the Investiture of the Gods War and thereby prove his own ability.
From beginning to end, Shen Gongbao had never truly wanted to ruin everything.
Unfortunately, while Real Person Taiyi had little ability of his own, Yuanshi Tianzun favored him and had bestowed many magical treasures upon him. Shen Gongbao truly was no match for him.
In the end, the conflict between Ao Bing and Nezha had merely been an extension of the conflict between Shen Gongbao and Real Person Taiyi.
"That's right. The Demon Race can be good or bad as well."
Ao Bing strongly agreed
