Zhunti Is Humiliated, and Everyone Begs for Answers!

Tongtian replied in shock, "Could it be a golden lotus borne from the twelve-petaled Merit Golden Lotus?"

Zhunti said, "That's right. It is precisely this divine treasure!"

Nuwa was astonished. "A single Merit Golden Lotus contains at least several million merits. Zhunti, you really are willing to part with it!"

Zhunti burst into laughter. "It's just a gesture, merely going through the motions. As long as I answer correctly, the Merit Golden Lotus won't be deducted—it'll still be mine."

Qin Feng secretly looked forward to it. Zhunti, Zhunti, you're usually as shrewd as a monkey. This question shouldn't stump you, should it?

[Incorrect answer!]

The system's icy prompt instantly left Zhunti dumbfounded!

Within Spirit Mountain, Zhunti's eyes flew wide, his face full of disbelief.

Jieyin anxiously asked from beside him, "Junior Brother, what happened? Did something go wrong?"

Zhunti gave a bitter smile. "Senior Brother, I answered incorrectly!"

Jieyin was immediately stunned. "Junior Brother, don't scare your Senior Brother!"

"Senior Brother, I really got it wrong. One golden lotus is gone!" Zhunti wailed miserably!

Jieyin's face immediately flushed red, and he was frustrated beyond measure!

"Junior Brother, how muddleheaded! This Merit Golden Lotus only bears one flower after tens of thousands of years. It represents the supreme fortune of our Western Teachings!"

"You lost one for nothing. That's equivalent to weakening the fortune of our Western Teachings!"

Zhunti gritted his teeth. "Group Leader! I don't believe it! How could the Demon Race possibly lose? You must have gotten this question wrong!"

Qin Feng replied blandly, "Just wait for the slap to the face!"

Kunpeng said, "Haha, Brother Zhunti, does your face hurt?"

East Prince Gong said, "Brother Zhunti, does your heart ache?"

Haotian said, "Senior Brother Zhunti, if you want to cry, then cry. There's no shame in a man crying!"

Taiyi said, "None of you are paying attention to the main point. The main point is, how did our Demon Race lose again?"

Houtu said, "Haha, it's absolutely true!"

Di Jun said, "My Demon Race absolutely cannot lose twice in a row!"

Hong Yun said, "Fellow Daoists, be quiet. Let us wait for the Group Leader to reveal the correct answer."

Zhunti still clung to a last shred of hope. "Group Leader, hurry and reveal the answer, so I can give up completely!"

[Correct answer: The Witch Race and Demon Race perish together!]

At once, all the mighty experts in the group were utterly horrified!

Tongtian said fearfully, "Group Leader, quickly explain! The Witch Race and Demon Race are currently the protagonists of Heaven and Earth. How could they possibly perish together?"

Haotian said, "Just who is the Group Leader? Why have I never heard Master mention that the Witch Race and Demon Race would meet such an end?"

Nuwa said, "The Group Leader truly possesses vast divine abilities, to foresee even such matters!"

Houtu said, "Group Leader, as long as you can tell me why my race perishes, I... will agree to any condition!"

Di Jun said, "Group Leader, Di Jun kneels and begs for the truth!"

East Prince Gong said, "This is killing me with anxiety! Don't drop the chain at the crucial moment, Group Leader. Don't go missing!"

The Witch Race and Demon Race perishing together meant that the Twelve Ancestral Witches, Di Jun, Taiyi, and nearly all of the Demon Race's mighty experts would fall!

How could the ten mighty experts in the group possibly not care about such an earth-shattering event?

Such an outcome was even more terrifying than the Dragon-Han's first great calamity.

After all, the Great Witches and Ancestral Witches of the Witch Race were all peak existences.

The Demon Race possessed countless powerful experts as well. It was simply the most flourishing and prosperous era in the history of the Primordial World.

How could they possibly perish together in the end? Even if things went badly, the Witch Race and Demon Race should still have preserved some sparks of their lineage.

Qin Feng said, "Heavenly Secrets must not be divulged. For all of you to glimpse a trace of the future's Heavenly Secrets through these questions is already an immense opportunity!"

"If you remain greedily unsatisfied and attempt to obtain all the Heavenly Secrets, all that awaits you will be the backlash of the Heavenly Dao!"

Qin Feng casually laughed it off, but it temporarily calmed the mighty experts.

Indeed, as Qin Feng had said, Heavenly Secrets could not be casually pried into. Without reaching a certain realm, no one dared rashly attempt to evade the changes of Heavenly Secrets.

[Answer analysis: In the second great war, the Witch Race's Great Formation of the Heavenly Gods and Fiends lacked two Ancestral Witches and failed to unleash its full power. The Demon Race's formation was likewise sabotaged by traitors. Thus, the Witch Race and Demon Race perished together!]

Taiyi said, "My Demon Race has traitors?"

Di Jun said, "Damn traitors! They actually buried my Demon Race!"

Houtu said, "???"

Other than those directly involved from the Witch Race and Demon Race, the other mighty experts in the group did not speak at this moment.

Instead, their minds raced. The Heavenly Secrets revealed by this question were nothing less than a bombshell.

They pondered bitterly for a long time, yet still had no idea how they should respond in the future.

Meanwhile, Houtu, Di Jun, and Taiyi were also plotting in their hearts, waiting only for the quiz to end before taking action.

Zhunti: "Why's everyone gone quiet? Isn't anyone going to comfort me?"

Hong Yun: "Fellow Daoist, you truly have no conscience. The Witch and Demon Races are both about to be wiped out, while you merely answered a question wrong and have to pay some price!"

Kunpeng: "Exactly. Zhunti, you really are utterly heartless and insane! I think you're deliberately making snide remarks!"

Zhunti: "Hmph, Kunpeng. As a member of the Feathered Race, you slip away faster than anyone. I'd say the traitor of the Demon Race is you!"

Kunpeng: "What nonsense are you spouting? I'm in the Northern Darkness right now. I never even joined the Demon Race!"

Zhunti: "Then that settles it. Di Jun, Taiyi, whatever you do, don't let Kunpeng join the Demon Race. Sooner or later, he'll rebel!"

Kunpeng: "Utter nonsense! Group Master, hurry up and deduct something from Zhunti, so he won't keep spouting nonsense!"

[2,000 points of Zhunti's Fortune and Destiny have been deducted!]

[Question Three begins: After the Witch and Demon Races, who will become the protagonists of Heaven and Earth?]
