The sudden turn of events left Venerable Yuanshi at a complete loss.
He raised his eyes to look at the Primordial Heavenly Demon, his face full of confusion.
"Senior."
"What... do you mean?"
The Primordial Heavenly Demon replied calmly,
"Didn't you want to take revenge on Qin Mu?"
"Take this token and go to Beyond Heaven. Find Luohu."
"He'll help you."
As soon as the Primordial Heavenly Demon spoke, Venerable Yuanshi was shaken to his core, his face full of astonishment.
"What?"
"Demon Ancestor... Luohu?"
Venerable Yuanshi blurted out in surprise, utterly caught off guard.
He knew all too well who Luohu was.
After all, Luohu was the Demon Ancestor who had vied with Dao Ancestor Hongjun for dominion over heaven and earth in Ancient Times.
He had founded the Demon Sect and swept across the Primordial Wilderness, his fearsome reputation shaking the heavens. He had nearly overturned the entire world.
Unfortunately, Hongjun had ultimately joined forces with numerous powerful beings to fight Luohu at Mount Sumeru in the Western Lands, and succeeded in defeating him.
Some said Luohu had perished. Others claimed he had survived and fled into Chaos.
Now, hearing the Primordial Heavenly Demon bring up Luohu—and even produce a token, telling him to seek Luohu with it—left Venerable Yuanshi deeply shaken.
"What...?"
"What exactly is the relationship between the Primordial Heavenly Demon and Demon Ancestor Luohu?"
As the thought crossed his mind, even more questions surfaced in Venerable Yuanshi's eyes.
As he stood lost in thought, the Primordial Heavenly Demon spoke.
"What?"
"You don't believe me?"
"Take this token and find Luohu. He'll surely give you a hand."
"When you return, you'll be able to wash away every humiliation you've suffered."
The Primordial Heavenly Demon's words brought Venerable Yuanshi back to his senses. He hurriedly gathered himself.
