Hong Yun: "Huh? It's been more than half a day. How come I haven't seen fellow Daoists Kunpeng and Zhunti?"
Kunpeng: "What are you getting at?"
Zhunti: "Hong Yun, you wouldn't..."
Hong Yun: "You guessed right, fellow Daoist. As soon as I received word of your challenge, I rushed from Fire Cloud Palace to Buzhou Mountain. I have to stop you—or at the very least, serve as your referee!"
Haotian: "No way??? No way???"
Houtu: "Pfft! Come look, there's an honest person here. Everyone, come bully him!"
Taiyi: "Pfft! Come look, there's an honest person here. Everyone, come bully him!"
Di Jun: "Pfft! Come look, there's an honest person here. Everyone, come bully him!"
Nuwa: "I'm speechless... I'm at Buzhou Mountain, Hong Yun. Couldn't you have given me a heads-up?"
East Prince Gong: "I bet you're going to have made the trip for nothing, Hong Yun!"
Hong Yun: "You fellow Daoists are acting strange. By the way, where are you all? Why can't I sense your auras? Could it be you've already finished fighting?"
Kunpeng: "Hmph, what fight? Zhunti, you old thief, do you even dare show up?"
Zhunti: "Kunpeng, you brat, if my sect didn't have matters to attend to, would I let you run wild like this?"
Kunpeng: "What a coincidence. There's a rainstorm in Northern Darkness, or I'd have shown you!"
Hong Yun: "What a disappointment! Since you two fellow Daoists are both busy, I'll take my leave first!"
East Prince Gong: "Where are you planning to go, fellow Daoist?"
Hong Yun: "I haven't decided yet. Perhaps back to Fire Cloud Palace, or perhaps to Longevity Mountain."
Qin Feng: "Be careful, fellow Daoist Hong Yun..."
Hong Yun: "Hmm? What do you mean by that, group leader?"
Qin Feng: "???"
Faced with someone as honest as Hong Yun, Qin Feng was at a loss for words.
Now that the quiz was over, Qin Feng felt he should get out there. He was a Golden Immortal at the pinnacle of his cultivation, yet he kept hiding in a cave. What kind of thing was that?
He casually picked a direction and flew off at an unhurried pace.
At the same time, many powerful figures began making their moves.
Houtu first urgently summoned the remaining Ancestral Witches, then, her expression grave, told them everything about the quiz in the group.
Xing Tian: "Houtu, you must be joking. A Chat Group? Sure, we did receive invitations before, but we all rejected them."
Gonggong: "Exactly. How could a little trick like that fool us?"
Dijiang: "Houtu, you should focus on cultivation instead of messing around with things that may or may not be real."
Houtu knew the Ancestral Witches were proud and haughty. No matter how she explained it now, they wouldn't believe her.
"Alas, if we wait until the Demon Race makes its move before preparing, it'll be too late."
Xuan Ming: "For now, let's keep an eye on the Demon Race and see what they do."
Zhu Jiuyin: "Houtu, there's no need to worry. Our Witch Race's Great Formation of the Heavenly Gods and Fiends is unrivaled in power throughout the Primordial World. Even against one or two Saints, we can still fight."
Houtu shook her head repeatedly. "That's exactly what worries me. Do you all think we'll be safe just because we have that advantage? What if something happens to one of us Ancestral Witches?"
"How could we bring the formation's full power to bear then?"
"Wouldn't the Demon Race take advantage of the opening?"
Di Jun pondered for a moment. "You're right. The Demon Race is cunning and treacherous. We really do need to be on guard."
Xuan Ming said gravely, "In that case, everyone should keep a low profile for now. Don't spar on your own again, lest you get injured and be unable to use the formation."
Houtu: "As long as you keep that in mind. I'll head out for a while."
The Demon Race's Heavenly Court.
Di Jun: "Taiyi, what should we do next?"
Taiyi said coldly, "This is a serious matter, and it seems we don't have much time. We have to strike decisively."
Di Jun: "Do you already have a plan?"
Taiyi nodded. "I do. I made up my mind after the first quiz."
"We shouldn't go to war with the Witch Race just yet. We need to make preparations first. I've decided to subdue Kunpeng, then bring East Prince Gong under our banner!"
Di Jun frowned. "East Prince Gong? He's the man Dao Ancestor appointed as the leader of the male immortals."
Taiyi scoffed. "What has he done to deserve that? The leader of the male immortals? That title is exactly why I'm interested. If he submits to our Demon Race, then all the male immortals in the Primordial World will fall into our hands!"
Di Jun: "What about the Human Race? Didn't the group say the next protagonists of heaven and earth would be the Human Race?"
Taiyi: "We shouldn't act against the Human Race just yet. Once Nuwa joins our Demon Race, the Human Race will become our vassals too. Then it'll be as easy as a thought."
Di Jun: "Good. Then let's go all out! I'll use the River Diagram and Luo Book to conceal our movements and bring five Demon Gods. You'll bring the Chaos Bell and take five Demon Gods as well!"
A glint flashed in Taiyi's eyes. "Good. We have to be careful the Witch Race doesn't notice. We must deploy the Demon Race's peak forces and decisively bring those two under our control!"
"Good. There's no time to lose. Before the Witch Race catches on, we'll move quickly. We'll split up and head to Northern Darkness first!"
At the same time, Kunpeng had just left Northern Darkness.
Meanwhile, at Donghua Mountain, East Prince Gong also transformed into a streak of light.
The two were clearly headed for Buzhou Mountain.
As for Qin Feng, he flew onward at full speed and had already reached the coast of the East Sea.
Lost in thought, he suddenly noticed something before him.
