"Senior Brother."

"Hmm?"

"You've been so good to me, Senior Brother. Once I start refining pills, I'll definitely save some for you!"

Xuan Du raised an eyebrow, remembering his own mortifying moment.

He couldn't help taking a deep breath.

Hiss... I'm starting to regret saying that. Can I take it back?

After leaving the Eight Sceneries Palace, they saw countless Xuan Sect disciples cheering excitedly.

Among those he recognized were San Xiao, Huanglong, and the Seven Attendant Immortals.

However, the side effects of the Mysterious Sun Pill still hadn't worn off.

At that moment, Kunlun Mountain looked as if demons had swept through it.

That was precisely why Tongtian had given them a special warning.

"Once you're outside, don't say you're disciples of the Interception Sect."

The last shred of hope in Xuandan's heart finally died. He thought to himself,

Anyone who didn't know better would think the Demon Race had launched an invasion.

The disciples of the Chan Sect and Interception Sect left first.

Xuan Du turned to his junior brother and asked,

"Is there anywhere you'd like to go during this trip down the mountain, Junior Brother?"

Xuandan furrowed his brow, and countless names of blessed lands and grotto-heavens sprang to mind.

The Sun Star, the Moon Star, Longevity Mountain, the Netherworld Blood Sea, and so on.

But on closer thought, they were all far too dangerous.

The best choice was to stay by Xuan Du's side.

"Wherever you go, Senior Brother, I'll go too."

Xuan Du smiled, gazing into the distance with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

"I was born among the Human Race. Ever since coming to Kunlun Mountain, I haven't returned to see my tribe."

"This is a good chance to visit them while we're down the mountain."

"Would you like to come with me, Junior Brother?"

Xuandan nodded firmly.

He wanted to see it for himself, too.

What life was like for the Human Race in this era.

Xuan Du was a Golden Immortal, so he slowed his pace to travel alongside Xuandan.

The two brothers set off together for the Human Race tribe where Xuan Du had been born.

They were the last Xuan Sect disciples to leave Kunlun Mountain, and they traveled at an unhurried pace.

Chapter 15: The Prehistoric World's First Kill—What the Hell Are You Acting So Arrogant For?

As Xuandan and Xuan Du traveled together,

Xuandan was very interested in the Human Race as it was now.

But it was only an interest.

After all, the Human Race of Blue Star in later generations and the Human Race of the Prehistoric World were worlds apart.

Their eras, beliefs, customs, and all sorts of other differences were simply too great. Though he had been human in his previous life, he couldn't feel any sense of belonging among the people of this age.

Still, Xuandan genuinely wanted to get along with the Human Race.

There was no other reason: the Human Race would one day become the World Protagonist.

They would play a key role in many Tribulations.

Besides, his Senior Brother had been born among the Human Race, and his Senior Brother treated him so well.

Xuan Du had wanted to visit the Human Race on his first trip down the mountain.

There had to be real affection behind that, and Xuandan could sense it.

On their journey, the unfamiliar sights opened Xuandan's eyes.

Xuan Du, by contrast, looked perfectly calm, which made Xuandan curious.

"Senior Brother, why don't you seem excited at all about this trip down the mountain?"

Xuan Du chuckled.

"I saw these sights back when I was still among the Human Race."

He seemed to recall his former life among them, and his expression stiffened.

Xuandan didn't notice the sudden change.

Soon, the two reached the territory where the Human Race lived.

It wasn't far from the East Sea, and mountain ranges stretched all around.

The Human Race sheltered in caves to escape natural disasters and other dangers.

But the moment Xuan Du and Xuandan arrived at the tribe, they froze.

Looking into the distance, they saw countless members of the Human Race fleeing in all directions.

Many Demonic Beasts had revealed their true forms.

They chased the humans like cats playing with mice.

They waited until their prey was almost inside the caves before swallowing them whole.

They seemed to relish the thrill of killing them this way.

To the Demonic Beasts, the humans' cries sounded like the loveliest accompaniment to a meal.

Women, children, and the elderly who couldn't run anymore could only wait where they were to die.

The able-bodied youths who refused to abandon their people returned, using themselves as bait to lure the Demonic Beasts away.

But in the end, they all wound up in the beasts' bellies.

The bloody chaos left Xuandan standing there, dazed.

He had imagined countless scenes of the strong preying on the weak.

None of them compared to seeing it with his own eyes.

Xuandan suddenly furrowed his brow and focused his gaze. He asked quietly,

"Senior Brother, are these Demonic Beasts junior brothers from the Interception Sect?"

Living beings who practiced the Three Pure Ones' Immortal Method gave off a distinctive aura.

That was how Xuandan recognized the beasts' identities.

Xuan Du remained where he stood, saying nothing.

Just then, a Demonic Beast with a mouth stained in blood came closer.

It instantly took human form and laughed.

"Greetings, Senior Brother—and to you too, Junior Brother."

Xuandan kept his eyes fixed on Xuan Du and said nothing.

Xuan Du asked, his voice somewhat stiff,

"Why are you devouring the Human Race?"

The Demonic Beast simply wiped the blood from the corner of its mouth, unconcerned.

It looked at the humans with utter disdain and snorted.

"The Human Race is the weakest life-form in the Prehistoric World."

"Born to be bullied, a bunch of useless trash. And they taste great, too. The strong prey on the weak—isn't that the law of the Prehistoric World?"

Then he seemed to remember something and hastily put on a fawning smile.

"I forgot Senior Brother was born among the Human Race. But you joined First Senior Uncle's sect."

"You can't be lumped in with these useless trash anymore. My apologies, my apologies."

"Oh, and Junior Brother, you haven't tried human meat yet. Come have a taste. It's delicious—you'll never forget it after just one bite..."

BOOM!!!

Xuan Du suddenly erupted, unleashing his mighty Magic Power.

A phantom mountain range formed and instantly pinned the Demonic Beast to the ground.

The sheer force of it left the beast with no thought of resisting.

The Interception Sect beast was now full of fear and confusion, with indignation in its eyes.

"Xuan Du, what do you think you're doing?!"

"You attacked a fellow sect member for no reason! When I get back to Kunlun Mountain, I'll report this to First Senior Uncle and make sure you're punished!"

Xuan Du could no longer contain his fury. He roared,

"You treat my people as food—how dare you?!"

The Interception Sect beast first stared at him blankly.

Then it scoffed and spoke disdainfully.

"So that's what this is about."
