Xuanyuan waved his hand, signaling Dijiang and the others not to say more. He turned to Taiqing Laozi and said, "You want me to return the treasures? Absolutely impossible!"
Taiqing Laozi's expression darkened. He threatened, "Innocent people are punished for their wealth. With so many treasures on you, aren't you afraid of bringing disaster upon the entire Witch Clan?"
"You can try!"
Yuanshi shouted, "Big Brother, why waste words with him? Let's just do it!"
"Count us two in!" Jieyin and Zhunti chimed in.
"And Old Ancestor!"
"This King is willing to help!"
Kunpeng Old Ancestor, Nether Patriarch, and East Duke stepped forward one after another, looking at Xuanyuan with playful eyes.
They admitted that Xuanyuan had extraordinary courage, but his strength was ultimately lacking.
What if he mastered the Space Law? He was, after all, only at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.
If it were just the three of them, they might have had some reservations. But with the addition of Sanqing, Jieyin, Zhunti, and other top powerhouses...
It was foolproof!
It was only Xuanyuan's greed that was to blame. Possessing so many Innate Spiritual Treasures, yet not knowing how to act with discretion.
More than ten people lined up, all exuding powerful Daluo Golden Immortal auras, locking onto Xuanyuan, ready to strike at any moment.
Just as the two sides were at each other's throats, a fearful yet firm voice rang out.
"It's too much for so many people to bully one!"
The one who spoke was Six-Eared Macaque. Beside him were several others.
Kong Xuan, Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird, Sihuxiang, and others.
They had all managed to enter Zixiao Palace to listen to Dao Ancestor Hongjun's sermon thanks to Xuanyuan's help.
They were filled with gratitude towards Xuanyuan.
Even though they knew that facing Daluo Golden Immortal powerhouses like Sanqing, Jieyin, and Zhunti would have dire consequences, possibly even leading to their death and annihilation, They still stepped forward without hesitation to speak up for Xuanyuan.
"Utterly laughable!"
Yuanshi snorted coldly, looking at Six-Eared Macaque and the others with disdain and contempt. "You creatures with fur and horns, born of dampness and eggs, dare to meddle in our affairs?"
Jieyin, with a compassionate look, smiled and said, "You have a connection with this humble monk. Why not join the Western World and cleanse yourselves of karma?"
"Who do you think you are!"
East Duke glanced at them dismissively and said impatiently, "If you know what's good for you, leave quickly, lest you make a mistake and end up dead."
Seeing this scene, Xuanyuan smiled. He asked Six-Eared Macaque, Kong Xuan, and the others, "The sermon ended long ago, why haven't you left yet?"
They looked at Xuanyuan, bowed respectfully, and said gratefully, "We waited here to thank you, Senior. Without you, we wouldn't be here today. It's a pity we are too weak and can't help much!"
Xuanyuan shook his head indifferently and smiled, "Your intentions are appreciated!"
Back then, at the edge of the Outer Heavens, Xuanyuan had used the Taiji Diagram to help tens of thousands of people enter Zixiao Palace. Most of the others had left directly after Hongjun's sermon. Only Six-Eared Macaque and the others had waited for him.
Loyal and righteous. With these people, his efforts in planning were not in vain.
It was enough!
As he spoke, Xuanyuan looked in the direction of Zixiao Palace and finally sighed, "Unfortunately, there's no chance to fight!"
Sanqing and the others didn't quite understand what Xuanyuan meant until the two young attendants, Haotian and Yaochi, suddenly appeared.
"My Master decrees that no fighting shall occur outside Zixiao Palace!"
"Everyone, please disperse. In three thousand years, come to Zixiao Palace again to listen to the sermon."
Haotian and Yaochi spoke one after another, looking at Sanqing and the others.
"Yes, we respectfully obey the Dao Ancestor's decree!"
Although Sanqing and the others were unwilling, they dared not defy Dao Ancestor Hongjun. They each glared at Xuanyuan, then bowed towards Zixiao Palace and disappeared into the Chaos Void.
As Sanqing and the others left, the lively area outside Zixiao Palace became quiet.
Nuwa, Fuxi, Zhen Yuanzi, Hongyun, and other neutral parties exchanged a few pleasantries with Xuanyuan and also left.
After everyone had left, Six-Eared Macaque, Kong Xuan, and the others stepped forward, wanting to speak but hesitating.
Xuanyuan roughly understood what they were thinking. He nodded slightly and smiled, "We'll talk about it when we return to the Primordial World!"
"Yes!"
Six-Eared Macaque, Kong Xuan, and the others nodded respectfully and said no more.
Xuanyuan strolled over to Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi, clicking his tongue in amazement. "Your Majesties the Demon Emperors, this is too tragic!"
"Haha!"
Dijiang and the others burst into hearty laughter, feeling extremely pleased.
In the current Primordial World, the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan, as the two strongest races, are in constant conflict for survival and development.
They had fought with Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi several times. Due to Xuanyuan's instructions, they had never used the power of laws, and therefore, did not hold much advantage in their struggles against Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi.
In fact, they had suffered significant losses at the hands of Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi, who possessed the River Diagram and Luo Book and the Chaos Bell, two supreme innate treasures.
Seeing Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi now, like two stray dogs lying on the ground, they felt incredibly pleased.
Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi struggled to get up.
Donghuang Taiyi snorted coldly, "Hmph, don't get cocky. Once we leave Zixiao Palace, I will definitely make you pay!"
Dijun's face darkened. He said nothing, but his thoughts were the same as Donghuang Taiyi's.
This was truly a huge embarrassment.
Ultimately, it was all Xuanyuan's fault!
Xuanyuan patted his chest, "Stubborn as a dead duck, I'm so scared!"
"Second Brother, words are useless. Let's go!"
Dijun didn't want to stay a moment longer. He called out to Donghuang Taiyi and prepared to leave.
"Did we say you could leave?"
Dijiang stepped forward, blocking the two.
"What else do you want?"
Dijun glared at Dijiang and roared furiously, "Do you really think I'm afraid of you? We can go down together!"
"Go down together?"
Xuanyuan sneered, reaching out and grabbing. The dim River Diagram and Luo Book and the Chaos Bell trembled violently a few times before he finally caught them.
"You think you're worthy?"
This scene caused Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi's expressions to change drastically.
They hadn't expected Xuanyuan to dare to snatch the River Diagram and Luo Book and the Chaos Bell.
Donghuang Taiyi threatened, "Aren't you afraid of the Dao Ancestor's punishment?"
Dijun seemed somewhat dazed. For some reason, he suddenly recalled the scene three thousand years ago when Jieyin and Zhunti first entered Zixiao Palace.
Jieyin and Zhunti had played the victim, while these two brothers were truly pathetic!
Xuanyuan shook his head, "We were lucky. We found treasures like the River Diagram and Luo Book and the Chaos Bell just lying around. Even if the Dao Ancestor interferes in everything, he can't control us!"
"That's right, we can testify!"
"The River Diagram and Luo Book and the Chaos Bell were lying on the ground. Our brothers were lucky and picked them up casually. Why should Hongjun interfere?"
Zhurong and Gonggong burst into laughter.
Dijun's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Xuanyuan, what exactly do you want?"
"We don't want anything!"
Xuanyuan looked playfully at Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi, then suddenly smiled, "It's been a while since I had barbecue. I heard the sun crystal stones from the Sun Star are good. They're smokeless and odorless, perfect for grilling."
