Inside Hong Yuan's great hall, Hong Yuan pondered where exactly he had gone wrong.
Why had his boys and girls turned out like this not long after heading out?
Every last one of them seemed even cruder than he was.
Was that appropriate?
It was not appropriate!
Perhaps part of the reason was that, whenever he had nothing to do, he told them quite a few little stories from his previous life.
For example, Lin Daiyu Furiously Uproots Lu Zhishen, or Three Punches Kill Red Hare.
But it should not have gone this far.
Hong Yuan searched for a long time without finding the problem. In the end, he could only conclude that Yang Mei had spoiled his attendants before this.
Within the Primordial Wilderness.
Just as Cuiwei and the others were preparing to rest for a while, the previously clear sky suddenly turned dark and gloomy.
Looking up, they saw rolling black clouds rapidly gathering from the distant horizon like surging waves, blotting out a vast stretch of the heavens in the blink of an eye.
Amid deep, intimidating roars, enormous and hideous great demons emerged indistinctly from the dense black clouds.
Riding the dark clouds, they sped toward Cuiwei and the others at astonishing speed.
A rough count revealed that there were more than twenty great demons, making for a truly terrifying sight.
Among them were three Demon Kings at the mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.
The demonic aura emanating from them seemed to blot out the sky and sun, terrifying beyond measure.
Seeing this, Cuiwei could not help furrowing his brow slightly.
Could they be coming for them?
But they had not caused much trouble, had they?!
However, when he noticed the many Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures beside them that they had not yet had time to put away, he seemed to understand at once.
At that moment, the great demons had likewise fixed their eyes on those Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures. Their eyes glowed red with undisguised malice and greed.
The three Demon Kings nearly burst into laughter.
It was real. These people truly possessed several hundred Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.
They had not expected to obtain such resources the moment they returned to the Primordial Wilderness.
It would be just enough to make up for the resources they had expended setting up the Four Directions God Protection Array.
Their frantic rush here after hearing the news had not been in vain.
Once they obtained these Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, as long as they did not court death, they would surely survive this Kalpa.
Still, they retained a trace of vigilance.
So many Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures were not something any ordinary faction could possess. They could not afford to offend some major figure.
Only Grand Unity Golden Immortals like them knew that, while they could claim a territory in the Primordial Wilderness on the surface, before those ancestors and true great figures, they were nothing more than beasts.
After pondering for a moment, they raised their voices and asked.
"Whose ancestor do you serve?!"
Hearing this, the attendants instinctively looked toward Cuiwei, who stood at the front.
Big brother, hurry up and make up a sect!
Cuiwei first bowed to the three Demon Kings. Only after observing every proper courtesy did he reply, "We serve Ancestor Lin Daiyu. Having heard that chaos will soon descend upon the Primordial Wilderness, we came forth to make a contribution to it."
The three Demon Kings immediately exchanged looks.
Each began searching his memories for the name of this ancestor.
Yet no matter how long they thought, they could not recall what kind of figure this Ancestor Lin Daiyu was.
When they had established the great array before, practically everyone in the Primordial Wilderness had gathered together.
They knew the names of ordinary Grand Unity Golden Immortals and even mighty Primordial Origin Golden Immortals, yet they had no impression whatsoever of an Ancestor Lin Daiyu.
That left only two possibilities. Either the name was fake, or this ancestor had not reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm before, which was why they had never heard of him.
If you enjoy this book, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you do not lose it next time.
After thinking it over, the three Demon Kings continued in booming voices, "May we ask what sort of person Ancestor Lin Daiyu is?!"
Before Cuiwei could speak, another attendant behind him snorted coldly. "Our ancestor is a Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivator. It is only natural that you have not heard of him!"
Hearing that, Cuiwei hurriedly reached out and stopped the attendant.
He seemed afraid that saying too much would lead to a slip of the tongue.
Yet this action immediately gave the three Demon Kings their answer.
Sure enough, he was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal who had only recently broken through.
But then another question arose: how could a Grand Unity Golden Immortal possess so many Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures?
"May I ask why you young friends possess so many Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures?"
The attendant behind Cuiwei suddenly stepped forward, lifted his chin, and declared with arrogant confidence, "What kind of figure is our ancestor? He possesses a treasure called the Treasure Gathering Basin, which can automatically draw in treasures from all the heavens!"
"Gulp!"
Upon hearing this, the great demons could no longer hold back. They swallowed hard, the greed in their eyes impossible to conceal.
They simply could not imagine that such a treasure existed.
If they possessed such a treasure, would they not lack Innate Spiritual Treasures no longer?
Not only the great demons, but even the three Demon Kings flushed red. Their enormous bodies trembled involuntarily, making the surrounding heaven and earth hum.
Suddenly, they could endure no longer.
They laughed wildly and arrogantly. "Thank you for the explanation, young friends. I just heard that you came into the world for the sake of the Primordial Wilderness?"
"That's right!"
"Since that is the case, why not hand your treasures over to us? Then we can contribute even more to the Primordial Wilderness! What do you say, young friends? After all, these treasures can only display their greatest power in the hands of those with profound cultivation."
Cuiwei and the others all put on expressions of sudden realization in perfect unspoken accord.
"You want to rob us of our treasures?"
The three Demon Kings no longer bothered pretending and unleashed their cultivation.
"That depends on whether you are willing to part with what you love!"
The three Demon Kings had originally thought that once they revealed their cultivation, Cuiwei and the others would surely bow their heads in terror and beg for mercy. After all, the ancestor they spoke of was merely a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
Yet unexpectedly, not one person before them seemed afraid. Instead, they appeared eager to give it a try.
The next moment, Cuiwei's face turned red, his expression brimming with extreme excitement.
"You little bastard, we treated you kindly, and you want to steal our treasures?"
"You think I'm fucking giving you face, don't you?!"
"Brothers and sisters, grab your weapons and beat the hell out of them!!"
With that, the people who had long struggled to suppress the restlessness in their hearts all reddened their eyes with excited gleams. Without hesitation, they activated the treasures in their hands.
For a moment, treasures of every color and shape erupted with dazzling light. Carrying a heaven-destroying aura, they crashed down upon the great demons like a dense meteor shower blanketing the sky.
The change in attitude was so abrupt that the great demons and Demon Kings nearly failed to react. It caught them utterly off guard.
They had never imagined that these people would be speaking so politely one moment, only to attack them with such decisiveness the next.
It was not until the dazzling divine light unleashed by the treasures was about to smash viciously into their faces that the great demons finally snapped awake as though from a dream.
"Quick, defend yourselves!!"
At the terrified roar of a Demon King, the great demons finally came to their senses and hastily brought out their own treasures, attempting to block the fierce assault.
But at that moment, groups of figures arrived from every direction along the horizon.
They were the other boys and girls who had split off earlier.
They were covered in blood, their murderous aura awe-inspiring.
Han Su, at their head, was especially striking. Her face was frosty as she held a crystal-clear jade cauldron. A layer of biting chill surrounded her body, as though the slightest movement from her could freeze everything around her solid.
Upon seeing the newcomers, the most anxious ones were not the great demons or Demon Kings.
Instead, it was Cuiwei and the others.
Cuiwei's face turned bluish-purple as he strained his throat and shouted.
"Brothers, hurry! Beat the crap out of them! The head-stealers are coming!!!"
