Eastern Emperor Taiyi felt as if his insides were churning like a stormy sea, his aura completely unable to calm down.

He raised his head and looked at the red spear tip above him, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

He had lost again, and so thoroughly!

"Ye Jun, do you know that the Demon Race's Heavenly Court at this moment? It's not something you can shake by yourself!" Di Jun said indistinctly.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi was suffering, and Di Jun wasn't faring any better. The God-Slaying Spear wasn't called a supreme treasure of Killing Intent for nothing.

This spear strike landed directly on his own body. It was thanks to Di Jun's Three-legged Golden Crow true form being incredibly tough; anyone else would have likely had their soul annihilated by this single strike!

"The Demon Race's Heavenly Court? What does it have to do with this Daoist Friend? At worst, this Daoist can even slay you, the Heavenly Emperor!" Ye Jun said slowly.

His tone was calm, yet his presence was immense!

Outside the palace, Changxi and Xihe's eyes sparkled. So cool!

He was simply the most outstanding Great Being in the entire Primordial World in the last tens of thousands of years.

He even fought the two leaders of the Demon Race's Heavenly Court on sight, showing no mercy at all.

So ruthless!

When Di Jun heard Ye Jun's shameless words, he spat out another mouthful of blood. This Monkey was utterly shameless!

Was he truly like the saying, "The barefoot aren't afraid of those wearing shoes"?

If he were to truly mobilize the entire Demon Race's Heavenly Court against Ye Jun in the future, Ye Jun would come to kill him, the Heavenly Emperor?

Was this a threat?

Di Jun's expression shifted repeatedly. Just as he was about to utter more harsh words, he saw another bloody hole appear on Eastern Emperor Taiyi beside him.

"Ah! Ye Jun, you..." Eastern Emperor Taiyi cried out in pain. He hadn't said anything, and this guy had just stabbed him with the spear.

He hadn't even mentioned using the power of the Demon Race's Heavenly Court!

Ye Jun, holding the dripping God-Slaying Spear, looked at Di Jun with a cold expression.

He completely ignored Eastern Emperor Taiyi, who was lying on the ground.

"My two Daoist Friends, there isn't much space on the Taiyin Star, so I won't be keeping you. May I ask you to leave?" Ye Jun said with a cold tone.

"Yes!" Before Di Jun could say anything, Eastern Emperor Taiyi's voice rang out.

What a joke, was he trying to die!

If this continued, he'd likely lose half his life!

"Good!" Ye Jun uttered a single word and then withdrew the Yin-Yang Two Energies that had been enveloping Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

The moment he felt the restraint removed, he flashed back to Di Jun's side.

"My two Daoist Friends, please!"

Ye Jun's cold voice sounded again. Di Jun had no choice. Eastern Emperor Taiyi had already transformed into a stream of light and retreated.

The Eastern Emperor was scared!

What if this malevolent star changed his mind? He'd be finished here.

Fleeing was the priority!

Di Jun frowned. This guy was running too fast! He then also slipped away.

Watching the two streams of light leave the Taiyin Star one after another, Ye Jun curled his lips and returned below.

"Brother Ye Jun, are you alright!" Changxi's anxious voice rang out the moment Ye Jun descended.

Beside her, Xihe's eyes widened as she examined Ye Jun for any injuries.

"It's nothing. These two mangy birds can't hurt this Daoist." Ye Jun put on an air of a master, causing Changxi and Xihe to look at him with even more reverence.

After speaking, he returned to the palace with the two women, Changxi and Xihe.

"I believe the injuries of the two immortal maidens haven't fully healed yet. Let this Daoist take another look!" Ye Jun's hearty laughter echoed in the palace.

"Brother, you're naughty!"

Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi had no interest in what was happening in the Taiyin Star Palace at this moment.

Outside the Taiyin Star!

"Brother, this Heavenly Marriage matter is probably a bust," Eastern Emperor Taiyi said, covering his face.

Di Jun's expression was extremely grim. Ever since he discovered the Thirty-Six Heavens and established the Demon Race's Heavenly Court, he had been invincible.

He had never suffered such a great loss before today!

Di Jun no longer considered the Heavenly Marriage matter. The twin sisters of the Taiyin Star were definitely out of his reach.

Moreover, he had already made pronouncements. If the Empress wasn't the Taiyin Goddess, then it would be better to have no Empress at all.

"After we return to the Heavenly Court today, prepare yourselves. The Witch Clan has been opposing us for so long, it's time we make a move!" Di Jun said unhurriedly.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's back straightened immediately. His brother intended to use the Witch Clan as a target for a battle to erase the impact of this incident.

"Understood!" Eastern Emperor Taiyi said in a deep voice.

He couldn't help but feel a bit of pity for the Witch Clan in his heart. If not for today's events, his Demon Race would have had to wait a few more years before launching an offensive.

But Di Jun's current state clearly showed he didn't want to wait any longer.

Witch Clan, oh Witch Clan, you can only blame Ye Jun, that jinx, for this!

Eastern Emperor Taiyi shook his head. Once the two of them returned to the Demon Race's Heavenly Court, the Primordial World would likely become restless.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of years had passed in the Primordial World.

Ever since Ye Jun had beaten up Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi on Taiyin Star last time, he had been living a comfortable life every day.

Changxi and Xihe had become even more enthusiastic towards Ye Jun after experiencing the so-called Heavenly Marriage incident.

This made even a Great Being like Ye Jun, with his Tongtian cultivation, exclaim that he had the will but not the strength.

During Ye Jun's wonderful life, the entire Primordial World had fallen into complete chaos.

The Demon Race's Heavenly Court made the first move, and the vast Demon Race army marched directly towards the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, with Eastern Emperor Taiyi, the Heavenly Court's God of War, personally leading the charge.

This action completely ignited the already precarious relationship between the Witch and Demon races, who had previously maintained a distance.

The situation where both races had lived in peace was instantly shattered by the Demon Race's preemptive strike. The Hundred Thousand Great Mountains were filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and the cries of the wounded echoed everywhere.

Inside the Witch Clan's council hall in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains!

Di Jiang sat at the head of the table with a frown, looking at the injured Fire Ancestor Witch Zhu Rong and the Water Ancestor Witch Gong Gong below.

"Brother, that old crow Eastern Emperor is going too far. Our Witch Clan had already restrained our expansion, yet this crow still wants to start a war. My opinion is that we should fight to the bitter end and see who backs down first!" Zhu Rong grumbled.

Hearing Zhu Rong's words, Di Jiang felt a headache coming on.

Fight, he also wanted to fight a real battle with all his might. The problem was that the Demon Race's Heavenly Court was currently at the peak of its power.

Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi were both Quasi-Saint cultivators, while among the twelve Ancestor Witches, only Di Jiang himself had tentatively reached the threshold of a Quasi-Saint.

Could they really win if they fought?

Although everyone in their Hundred Thousand Great Mountains was capable of fighting, it wasn't a war of attrition like this.

Even if they could defeat the Demon Race in the end, it would only be a pyrrhic victory, which wasn't worth it!

"Brother, in my humble opinion, what Zhu Rong says is not without reason. If Eastern Emperor Taiyi dares to lead his army here today, he will be even more outrageous tomorrow!" Zhu Jiuyin said, cupping his hands.
