Heavenly Human Sacred Artifact, Divine Mansion Cultivators Pledge Allegiance!

In the northern lands, wind and snow howled.

Demonic energy churned inside a hidden cave.

Within the cave, a bonfire blazed.

Dozens of imposing figures sat around it.

A black-robed demonic cultivator threw back a mouthful of strong liquor, then slammed his bowl to the ground with a bang. Fanaticism filled his eyes. "Snow Robe Demon Venerable fought two opponents alone and killed them both! He's brought glory to our demonic path. Magnificent!"

His words drew a chorus of agreement.

"Exactly! Snow Robe Demon Venerable cut down two Divine Mansion cultivators from that pack of righteous hypocrites in one stroke. I bet they're scared out of their wits now! Hahahaha!"

An Old Devil with white hair and beard leaned on a bone staff and laughed smugly.

"Our demonic path can finally hold its head high."

"Damn right. As I see it, Li Xinge, whom those hypocrites of the immortal path praise to the heavens, isn't even fit to carry Snow Robe Demon Venerable's shoes."

"Only because there are no heroes in this age could such a whelp make a name for himself!"

Another burst of laughter followed.

The black-robed demonic cultivator who had spoken first rose to his feet. He was tall, with knotted muscles beneath his robe.

He swept his gaze over the others and cupped his fists. "Fellow cultivators, the emergence of such an outstanding figure is a sign that our demonic path will flourish. I, Yuan, may be unworthy, but I have some confidence in my abilities. I intend to go to Tai Prefecture and join the Snowy Robe Sacred Cult, to help Snow Robe Demon Venerable restore the glory of our demonic sects. Who will come with me?"

A brief silence followed.

The Old Devil with the bone staff answered first. "Count this Old Devil in."
