A Dao Companion at Last! Fellow Daoist Dijun, You Wouldn't Want the Moon Star to Fall into the Wu Race's Hands, Would You?

Saving a beauty in distress—that was the righteous thing to do!

His crimson gold Dao Robe fluttered in the wind, and his Purple Gold Divine Crown shimmered with immortal radiance.

Dong Wanggong's imposing figure appeared before Xihe and Changxi, shielding them behind him. The gentle smile on his lips made both women's hearts flutter.

Only by comparison could one see the difference!

Dijun had threatened them, while Dong Wanggong had protected them!

Even Xihe and Changxi weren't so foolish as to think Dijun was a good match.

"Dong Wanggong, my brother and I were discussing the Heavenly Marriage with the two female immortals. What are you doing, stirring up trouble?"

"Does Hongmeng Immortal Palace intend to make an enemy of the Demon Race?"

"I have perfected the Spacetime Law. Even if you once borrowed the power of all the beings in the Primordial Wilderness to slay Demon Lord Jidu, I'm not afraid of you in the slightest. If you want to meddle in the Demon Race's affairs, I don't mind fighting you to the death!"

The Chaos Bell clanged, and a murderous look crossed Eastern Emperor Taiyi's face. Boundless Spacetime Law surged as he sent it sweeping toward Dong Wanggong.

Ever since the First Lecture at Purple Cloud Palace, he had disliked Dong Wanggong.

Before, he hadn't been strong enough. Now, with the Spacetime Law at his command, Eastern Emperor Taiyi might be able to display a hint of the might of a Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortal. That was why he dared to challenge Dong Wanggong head-on.

"Heh!"

"Get lost. Let Dijun speak to this emperor. You're not worthy!"

Dong Wanggong gave a cold snort and raised his hand. Vast Immortal Dao Law sent Eastern Emperor Taiyi flying. He spat out blood and crashed into the dust.

When someone showed me an inch of respect, I gave them a foot in return.

But Eastern Emperor Taiyi wasn't strong enough and still insisted on showing off. That left him as nothing more than a pawn for Dong Wanggong to humiliate.

"Dong Wanggong, you've gone too far!"

"The Heavenly Marriage is the Heavenly Dao Trend. Xihe and Changxi are the Demon Empresses ordained by Heaven. This is the Demon Race's territory, not your Dojo!"

"Are you planning to force your way into this matter?"

Dijun spoke icily, his aura sharp as he faced Dong Wanggong. Surging fury blazed around him as the might of a Quasi-Saint Peak and the Demon Race's Fortune rose together, creating an immense presence.

As the Demon Race's ruler, he had held power for tens of thousands of years.

When had Dijun ever endured such humiliation? If he weren't wary of Hongmeng Immortal Palace's foundations, he would have attacked Dong Wanggong outright instead of trading insults.

After all, it was common knowledge among the great powers of the Primordial Wilderness that Eastern Emperor Taiyi was reckless.

If his brother caused a commotion, Dijun could always excuse it by saying he didn't know any better.

But if Dijun truly started a war, it would mean the entire Demon Race had made an enemy of Hongmeng Immortal Palace. Then Dijun would face not only Dong Wanggong, but also Saint Nuwa, the Dragon Clan, West Queen Mother, and many other formidable foes.

The Demon Race had neither a Saint nor a Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortal. They had no right to fall out with Dong Wanggong.

"Not at all!"

"This emperor has admired Xihe and Changxi for ten thousand years. I came to the Moon Star today to become Dao Companions with them, and I'll offer two strands of Primordial Violet Qi as betrothal gifts!"

"But I truly wish to share my heart with these two fairies and cultivate the Great Dao together. You brothers, on the other hand, only want the merit and Fortune of the Heavenly Marriage, along with the Myriad Stars Great Array!"

Dong Wanggong smiled and swept his jade sleeve. Two beams of Seven-Colored Divine Light appeared in the air. The Dao Resonance of Primordial Violet Qi spread throughout the area, their brilliance outshining the endless stars.

As he spoke, Xihe and Changxi stared at Dong Wanggong in a daze. They hadn't expected the Immortal Emperor to have come to take them as Dao Companions.

A dream of ten thousand years was coming true in an instant!

As for the Primordial Violet Qi, it meant less to the two women than Dong Wanggong himself. After all, he was the male immortal they had admired for so long, and both his nature and cultivation were everything they had hoped for.

"Dong Wanggong, are you defying the Heavenly Dao and plotting rebellion?"

"Xihe and Changxi are meant to be the Demon Empresses of our Demon Race. And I suspect your Primordial Violet Qi was obtained by improper means. On top of that, you carry the aura of the Devil Dao. This emperor has reason to suspect that you've fallen into the Devil Dao!"

"Submit quietly and hand over the Primordial Violet Qi!"

Dijun wore a greedy expression.

Primordial Violet Qi—and two strands of it! It was as if they had been prepared for him and Tai Yi.

He was only trying to brand Dong Wanggong as a practitioner of the Devil Dao so he could condemn him from the moral high ground and seize the Primordial Violet Qi.

His heart pounded, and his breathing grew heavy.

Even Dijun, usually composed and cautious, couldn't keep his wits about him. He stared fixedly at Dong Wanggong, making the latter's spine tingle.

That Golden Crow with the scruffy feathers isn't into men, is he?

"Dijun, you brothers are shameless!"

"My sister and I are willing to become the Immortal Emperor's Dao Companions. The Moon Star will never belong to the Demon Race, either. The Immortal Emperor eradicated the Demon Sect for the good of all the beings in the Primordial Wilderness, yet not one of you from the Demon Race dared to fight!"

"You boast about the Golden Crow Clan of the Sun Star and claim the Demon Race rules the world, but I see nothing but cowards who prey on the weak across the entire Thirty-three Heavens. You're not even as shameless as Zhunti and Jieyin from the Western World!"

Changxi was furious!

Dijun clearly wanted the Primordial Violet Qi, yet he had accused Dong Wanggong of falling into the Devil Dao.

Even Zhunti and Jieyin, those two fellow disciples, weren't as shameless as Dijun. It was simply infuriating.

She had thought highly of Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi before, but they were nothing more than despicable villains.

"My sister is right!"

"We're willing to become the Immortal Emperor's Dao Companions. Since you've saved us, fellow Daoist, my sister and I will offer ourselves to you right now. You may do with us as you wish!"

Do with them as he wished?

Xihe's cheeks turned pink, but her words were bold. She led Changxi straight to Dong Wanggong, and the two women each embraced one of his arms.

In an instant, a cotton-soft sensation washed over Dong Wanggong.

They were truly... very well-endowed!

Seeing this, Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi gritted their teeth, their fury rising.

Xihe and Changxi were holy goddesses of the Moon Star. How could they be deceived by that hypocrite Dong Wanggong?

"Refine these two strands of Primordial Violet Qi with care. Within ten thousand years, Hongmeng Immortal Palace will have two more mighty Saints!"

"Dijun, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Xihe and Changxi are now my Dao Companions. If you dare entertain any more wicked thoughts, don't blame Hongmeng Immortal Palace for showing no regard for the Demon Race!"

"Why haven't you left yet?"

Dong Wanggong smiled as he sent the two strands of Primordial Violet Qi into Xihe and Changxi's souls. Then, with a stern look, he reprimanded the Golden Crow Brothers.

As the Demon Race's ruler, he needed to act the part.

Otherwise, the Witch-Demon Tribulation would end with the Wu Race dominating everything, and the original Heavenly Dao Trend would veer off course.

Dijiang had attained the Dao of a Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortal, already changing the course of events to some extent.

But the Great Dao had its own design. Dao Ancestor Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao would surely respond, and the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods watching from the shadows would make their own moves as well.

"No! We can do without the Heavenly Marriage, but the starry sky belongs to the Demon Race. You must hand over the Moon Star!"

"Otherwise, this emperor won't let the matter rest!"

Seeing how forceful Dong Wanggong was, Dijun gave up on taking the Primordial Violet Qi and gaining merit through the Heavenly Marriage.

But he wouldn't compromise on the Moon Star.

The last Wu-Demon War had been a struggle over the Thirty-three Heavens. Because they hadn't had the Moon Star, the Myriad Stars Great Array had been incomplete.

In the end, Dijun, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and the other members of the Demon Race had been forced to offer up their blood essence and burn their origins just to barely defeat the Twelve Ancestral Witches and gain control of the Thirty-three Heavens.

At this, Dong Wanggong looked at Xihe and Changxi. The two women gave him a slight nod, indicating that he could decide everything.

Whether to hand over the Moon Star rested on Dong Wanggong's decision alone!

"The struggle between the Wu Race and the Demon Race is the Heavenly Dao Trend. I've comprehended the Heavenly Dao, so I naturally understand how important the Moon Star is to the Myriad Stars Great Array."

"Now that Xihe and Changxi are my Dao Companions, the Moon Star belongs to Hongmeng Immortal Palace. If you want the Myriad Stars Great Array to display its true might, you'll have to pay the appropriate price!"

"The River Map and Luo Book are fated to be mine. If fellow Daoist Dijun is willing to part with them, then the Moon Star will naturally belong to the Demon Race!"

Dong Wanggong spoke slowly, his voice soft.

The River Map and Luo Book were both Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures. They were also the treasures with which Fuxi would comprehend the Tai Chi Eight Trigrams and become the Human Race's Heavenly Emperor. He had to get his hands on them.

Of the Great Dao's fifty principles, Heaven deduced forty-nine, leaving one to escape.

The butterfly effect had already appeared, and Dong Wanggong didn't know whether Dijun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi would meet their ends in the future. It was best to get the River Map and Luo Book ahead of time.

He was good at driving a hard bargain!

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"The River Map and Luo Book are my life-bound treasures, and they're tied to the Demon Race's Fortune. I can't trade them for the Moon Star!"

"Brother, let's go!"

Dijun was furious. Dong Wanggong was simply extorting him.

At worst, he could make up for the Moon Star's absence with manpower. The Myriad Stars Great Array would still possess invincible might.

There was no way Dijun would agree to hand over the River Map and Luo Book!

"If that's the case, then you two fellow Daoists should leave at once. This emperor won't stop you!"

"But I've invited the Twelve Ancestral Witches to visit the Moon Star for a hundred thousand years. That seems perfectly reasonable, doesn't it..."

Watching the two men walk away, Dong Wanggong spoke leisurely.

Everything was firmly in his grasp!
