The Tragic East King Duke

With a shout from the East King Duke, the sky above the Purple Mansion was suddenly filled with surging Purple Qi. A majestic torrent of Purple Qi transformed into a streak of light, heading towards the Chaos Bell.

Gold and purple suddenly collided!

The Chaos Bell, struck by the impact, was directly sent flying. Eastern Emperor Taiyi seized the opportunity, grabbed it, and then flung it into the sky once more.

Immediately, his hands blurred through incantations, and the Great Dao Laws began to circulate wildly on the Chaos Bell. Chains of Law wrapped around the Chaos Bell, adding to its imposing aura.

Seeing this, the East King Duke inwardly lamented, What is all this!

Despite his inner turmoil, his hands did not falter. Purple light flashed from his Dragon Head Staff. The East King Duke let out a great cry and threw the Dragon Head Staff into the torrent of Purple Qi.

The purple torrent, carrying the Dragon Head Staff, instantly transformed into a colossal purple dragon that lunged at the Chaos Bell.

The purple dragon opened its massive maw and swallowed the Chaos Bell. A smile finally appeared on the East King Duke's face.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's lips curled into a cold sneer. Was the Chaos Bell that easy to absorb?

Insolent fool!

Eastern Emperor Taiyi beckoned with one hand. The Chaos Bell within the purple dragon suddenly tore through its belly, transforming back into a streak of light and flying into Eastern Emperor Taiyi's hand.

At this moment, the smile on the East King Duke's face froze before it could fully disappear.

"Give up your struggle, East King Duke!" Di Jun roared.

Then, two orbs of light gradually became clear above Di Jun's head: the River Diagram and Luo Book!

The East King Duke brandished his Dragon Head Staff, Purple Qi surging around him for thirty thousand miles!

Under normal circumstances, this display alone from the East King Duke would have been sufficient. But at this moment, both Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Di Jun had come with the resolve to kill.

They held nothing back!

The River Diagram and Luo Book directly manifested the myriad things of the Primordial World. The two Spiritual Treasures split into two streams of light, surging into the Nine Heavens Star River. In moments, mountains and rivers appeared all around the East King Duke.

Carrying the Nine Heavens Star River, they surged towards the East King Duke!

The East King Duke's heart trembled. These two are truly determined to kill me!

I cannot defeat them!

With this thought, the East King Duke transformed into a streak of light and fled into the distance.

The area below the Purple Mansion was already completely shrouded in demonic energy. The Demon Race army had directly breached the gates of the Purple Mansion. Although the East King Duke had managed to build up and strengthen the Purple Mansion over thousands of years, the sheer numbers of the Demon Race were overwhelming. Two fists are no match for four hands!

"Where is the Mansion Lord?"

"Mansion Lord, save us!"

Calls for help intermittently echoed from within the Purple Mansion, unaware that their Mansion Lord, the East King Duke, had already made his escape.

As for the Purple Mansion, the East King Duke firmly believed, As long as the green hills remain, there will be wood to burn.

"Di Jun, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, I shall remember you two. When I go to Zixiao Palace to pay my respects to my master this time, I will make you pay the price!" the East King Duke muttered to himself.

His speed did not decrease in the slightest!

"Demon Race disciples, heed my command: kill all belonging to the Purple Mansion!" Eastern Emperor Taiyi commanded in a low voice, then immediately pursued the East King Duke.

Di Jun followed closely behind. They were no strangers to eliminating all threats.

They were already very familiar with the process.

News of Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi of the Demon Race personally leading the army to the Purple Mansion soon spread throughout the entire Primordial World.

On this day, Taotie had just finished scavenging another cave dwelling with Ye Jun. They had certainly reaped a bountiful harvest.

"Master, our direction is towards Zixiao Palace," Taotie mumbled.

Having been with Ye Jun for so long, Taotie knew that his master seemed to have a peculiar relationship with the only Saint in this Primordial World.

Hence the question.

"It's fine, I am heading here for a reason," Ye Jun said slowly.

"Master, are you waiting for someone?" Taotie inquired.

Ye Jun nodded faintly and said no more. At this time, it was obvious who would be heading to Zixiao Palace.

Not long after Ye Jun arrived, he heard a barrage of curses from not far away.

"East King Duke, you are the Head of Male Immortals personally appointed by a Saint. If you have the guts, stop running! Fight me!"

As soon as this familiar voice reached Taotie's ears, he recognized the speaker. Wasn't this Eastern Emperor Taiyi from before!

Judging by his voice, Eastern Emperor Taiyi seemed to be chasing someone!

Ye Jun's brow twitched. Isn't this just a coincidence?

As Eastern Emperor Taiyi drew closer, Ye Jun and Taotie could clearly see the situation: Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi were jointly pursuing the East King Duke.

The East King Duke, who had once worn a magnificent golden robe, was now in tattered clothes, his face etched with worry.

If anyone saw him, they would never believe that this was the former Mansion Lord of the Purple Mansion and the Head of Male Immortals, the East King Duke, from not long ago.

He couldn't even spare a retort to Eastern Emperor Taiyi's provocation; running away was the priority at this moment.

"Master, could that guy be the Head of Male Immortals, East King Duke?" Taotie grumbled.

Ye Jun chuckled and said, "How about we stop him later and ask him a few questions?"

As soon as his voice fell, Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi had already transformed into Three-legged Golden Crows and caught up to East King Duke, striking him with a single palm that made him spit blood.

Ye Jun noticed the three of them, and Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi also noticed Ye Jun.

"Daoist Friend Ye Jun, save me!" East King Duke suddenly felt a glimmer of hope for survival.

He completely forgot that he had caused Ye Jun trouble more than once before.

Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi also turned their attention to Ye Jun, feeling a headache coming on.

How could they run into this guy at any time? What's more, this guy was incredibly shameless and unreasonable.

If he was determined to protect East King Duke, would they fight or let him go?

Could they really win if they fought?

Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi's minds raced through numerous possible outcomes.

Ye Jun smiled and slowly spoke, "Yo, isn't this our esteemed Head of Male Immortals, Lord East King Duke? What happened to make you look like this?"

East King Duke's face flushed with embarrassment, and he couldn't be bothered by the sarcasm in Ye Jun's words.

"Daoist Friend Ye Jun, this humble one knows of your extraordinary strength. As long as you are willing to lend a hand, this humble one will surely repay you!" East King Duke said urgently.

"Scram!" Ye Jun shouted lowly!

Ye Jun then looked at Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi with a mocking smile and said, "Two Daoist Friends, this humble one will not get involved in this matter. Do as you please!"

With a wave of his long sleeve, the Dragon Head Staff that was originally in East King Duke's hand flew out and landed steadily in Ye Jun's hand.

"This Dragon Head Staff shouldn't be wasted in the hands of a dying man. I'll keep it for you. Do the two Daoist Friends have any objections?" Ye Jun said slowly.
