Hongjun's Edict Spreads Through the Primordial Era!

After calming down, Shen Hongfei revealed his method for resolving the Witch Clan's troubles.

"The Witch Clan and the Demon Clan are the strongest forces in the Primordial Era. You both have countless subordinate races under your command. If a major war truly breaks out, all the myriad creatures of the Primordial Era will be drawn into it..."

Shen Hongfei spoke slowly.

The war between the Witches and Demons was one of the three Great Tribulations after the primordial creation of the world. Countless beings perished!

The Witch and Demon clans, whose influence spanned the entire Primordial Era, were almost wiped out. Only then did humanity have the opportunity to rise!

Listening to Shen Hongfei's account, the twelve Ancestral Witches felt their hearts sink.

They knew that what Shen Hongfei said was likely true!

The thought of all the myriad creatures of the Primordial Era being caught up in the war sent shivers down the spines of even the twelve Ancestral Witches!

Shen Hongfei first described the terrible consequences of the Witch-Demon war, and then continued, "The Demon Clan will absolutely not back down easily in their struggle for dominance over heaven and earth. They will inevitably press the Witch Clan step by step! If the Witch Clan wants to avoid war, relying on negotiations with the Demon Clan will not succeed! To make the Demon Clan retreat, you must invite someone influential enough to mediate..."

Before Shen Hongfei could finish speaking, everyone's eyes in the hall lit up.

"The person you're talking about, could it be the Saint Hongjun?"

Dijiang asked impatiently.

Hongjun was the only Saint in the Primordial Era. His words were like Heavenly Dao decrees for the entire Primordial Era, and no one dared to disobey!

After all, everyone below a Saint was considered an ant. No matter how powerful the Demon Clan was, they would never dare to provoke Hongjun!

Therefore, including Dijiang, all the Ancestral Witches guessed that the person Shen Hongfei mentioned would be Hongjun!

"Exactly! The Demon Clan is openly recruiting soldiers and buying horses, and their strength is now far greater than before. They are at their most arrogant! I'm afraid that besides inviting the Saint Hongjun, no one else can make the Demon Clan yield!"

Shen Hongfei said with a faint smile.

In the original timeline, it was Hongjun himself who personally intervened and stopped the first major war between the Witch and Demon clans!

Shen Hongfei had an eighty percent chance that Hongjun would intervene early to stop the war between the two clans after the Witch Clan made their request!

However, once humanity appeared, the war between the Witch and Demon clans would likely be unavoidable!

After all, there could only be one protagonist in the Primordial Era. When the Demon Clan's ambition grew to a certain extent, they would inevitably attack the Witch Clan!

Moreover, Hongjun would probably not intervene then, and might even fan the flames!

But that would likely be countless eons later. By then, Shen Hongfei would definitely have enough strength to intervene!

For now, Shen Hongfei just needed to temporarily resolve the Witch Clan's troubles and marry Houtu.

"Good! I will personally go to Zixiao Palace immediately to seek an audience with the Saint Hongjun and ask him to mediate!"

Dijiang said excitedly.

The frequent provocations by the Demon Clan during this period had greatly annoyed Dijiang.

If Hongjun could intervene to stop the Demon Clan's excessive behavior, it would naturally be a good thing for the Witch Clan!

Dijiang flapped his wings and instantly left Pangu Hall, heading towards Zixiao Palace, thirty-three heavens away!

As the leader of the Witch Clan, and with unparalleled speed, Dijiang was the most suitable person to go to Zixiao Palace!

Zixiao Palace.

Hongjun, who was meditating in seclusion, suddenly opened his eyes.

Infinite brilliance flashed in his eyes, seeming to contain the entire universe!

"Who is calling my name?"

Hongjun murmured.

He performed a brief calculation, and the scene of Shen Hongfei discussing matters with the twelve Ancestral Witches in Pangu Hall immediately appeared in his mind.

"Heh heh, interesting!"

After understanding Shen Hongfei's plan, Hongjun couldn't help but smile slightly. "The time for the Witch-Demon war has indeed not yet arrived. In that case, I will grant you this favor!"

Dijiang, after leaving Pangu Hall, took only a quarter of an hour to tear through layers of space and arrive before Zixiao Palace!

Just as Dijiang was about to step forward and knock to request an audience, the door of Zixiao Palace suddenly opened, and a young Daoist boy, no older than ten, walked out from inside.

The boy had his hair tied in a topknot, and his face was as delicate as carved jade, looking exquisitely cute.

However, the powerful aura of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal emanating from the boy made Dijiang dare not underestimate him.

"Greetings, young Dao friend! I am Dijiang, the leader of the Witch Clan. I have come to seek an audience with the Saint Hongjun. Please inform him!"

Dijiang politely bowed to the boy.

"Daoist Dijiang, please return! Your request has already been granted by the Dao Ancestor!"

The boy said directly.

"Wh-what!"

Hearing the boy's words, Dijiang was stunned.

He hadn't expected Hongjun to know he was coming in advance, and even know what his request was!

Regaining his composure, Dijiang looked towards Zixiao Palace with admiration. "As expected of a Saint, his divine abilities are truly beyond our comparison!"

All the great powers in the Primordial Era knew that Saints were incredibly strong, with no comparison to powers below the Saint level!

However, since no one had yet witnessed Hongjun in action, everyone lacked a clear understanding of just how powerful a Saint truly was.

Dijiang now finally saw a glimpse of a Saint's power, and a sense of awe spontaneously arose within him!

Still, the stronger Hongjun was, the better, as this would make the Demon Clan even more hesitant to disobey Hongjun's commands!

Dijiang finally bowed respectfully in the direction of Zixiao Palace before flying away from the area!

A moment later, Dijiang returned to Pangu Hall.

"Big Brother, why did you come back so quickly!"

Seeing Dijiang return, all the Ancestral Witches inside the hall were surprised.

Unlike their previous search for the Sun-Slaying Bow, Dijiang had gone to visit Saint Hongjun this time; it was impossible for him to return so soon!

"I didn't actually meet Saint Hongjun..."

Dijiang shook his head and immediately told everyone what he had seen when he went to Zixiao Palace.

"What! Saint Hongjun is actually so divinely powerful?"

"Incredible! Big Brother hadn't even arrived yet, and Saint Hongjun already knew what we were asking for?"

"..."

After hearing Dijiang's account, all the Ancestral Witches were instantly astonished.

They clearly hadn't expected that a Saint, located far beyond the thirty-third heaven, could know their every move!

From this point on, when they mentioned Hongjun's name, their voices involuntarily lowered considerably, and their attitudes became much more respectful.

"Heh heh!"

Shen Hongfei, however, let out a faint smile, not feeling surprised by this.

When Shen Hongfei had mentioned Hongjun earlier, he already knew he would be noticed by the other party.

Once there were more Saints in the Primordial Era in the future, everyone would know not to casually mention a Saint's name.

Just then, a vast and majestic voice suddenly echoed from beyond the thirty-third heaven, instantly spreading throughout the entirety of the Primordial Era!

"I am Hongjun! Witch Clan and Demon Clan, heed my command: from this moment on, the Demon Clan shall govern the heavens, and the Witch Clan shall govern the earth. You are forbidden from engaging in large-scale warfare for the next hundred thousand years, or face the wrath of heaven!"
