East King Duke possessed an unrivaled spirit. Once Di Jun and the others were defeated by him, they could never be his opponents again.
What's more.
East King Duke looked up at the sky, his divine sense penetrating immeasurable time and space.
The third sermon was about to begin.
According to the development, the Three Pure Ones and others would become Saints faster after the sermon.
Saints!
His gaze slightly narrowed, and his expression became somewhat solemn.
Currently, he was not a match for a Saint. To protect himself when the era of Saints arrived, he could only seize the time to obtain more cultivation resources.
With this thought, he looked at the charming and lovely West Queen Mother.
"Tai Hua, are you willing to take on the position of Queen Mother and manage the Immortal Court with me?"
West Queen Mother's heart trembled. She lowered her head with a blush, but couldn't see her toes.
She had thought that his previous words were just talk. After all, the Immortal Court was almost the largest force in the Great Desolation, occupying the most Auspiciousness in heaven and earth.
Once a Cultivator joined the Immortal Court, they would also be blessed by Auspiciousness, and their cultivation path would be smooth and unimpeded, as if divinely aided.
It could be said that even a pig joining the Immortal Court could become an immortal and an ancestor.
Let alone the position of Queen Mother of the Immortal Court, which was on par with the Heavenly Emperor, and the person who received the most Auspiciousness.
He was giving it to her so easily?!
At this thought, West Queen Mother lost her composure. When she looked at East King Duke again, her eyes were full of adoration.
"I... This concubine is willing!"
Great Desolation.
At the foot of East Kunlun.
A pair of siblings, looking about a dozen years old, were desperately fleeing. Thorns littered the ground, tearing their clothes and leaving bloody streaks on their skin. Yet, they seemed oblivious, their eyes fixed on the majestic divine mountain ahead.
"Little brother, hold on! As long as we enter Kunlun, those Yao and Mo will definitely not dare to take half a step inside."
The slightly older girl looked back fearfully at the mass of black mist floating in the sky, then pulled her brother forward as they fled.
In the clouds above.
Three Yao were laughing as they watched the fleeing girl below, like a cat playing with a mouse, their expressions filled with mocking amusement.
However, upon seeing the divine mountain ahead, a Yao that resembled a sheep hesitated.
"Eldest Brother, Second Brother, this looks like the cultivation dojo of a powerful individual. Why don't we quickly capture these two remnants and bring them back to the Demon Court to report?"
"Third Brother need not worry!"
A tiger-like Yao transformed into a burly man. A character like the word "king" formed by black Dao patterns adorned his forehead. If one looked closely, they could even see the wails of many souls within it.
"Now that we have joined the Yao Race, besides the Immortal Court, who else dares to make a move against us?"
"Exactly! We are no longer the rogue cultivators we used to be, without any backing. With the Yao Race as our support, who wouldn't give us some face? Moreover, we are currently on official business for the Demon Court. Anyone who dares to stop us is defying the Demon Court!"
A thin man with deer antlers on his head said dismissively. As he looked at the young girl below, a lewd glint appeared in his eyes.
"This..."
Although the sheep-like Yao felt a vague sense of unease, the thought of the Demon Court's power and the awe-inspiring sight of countless Demon Gods gathered there buried his unease.
"We're in!"
The older girl's face broke into a joyful smile. Feeling the dense Spiritual Energy of the surrounding mountains, she hurriedly pulled her brother and knelt down, kowtowing repeatedly towards the mountain.
"Seniors of the Three Pure Ones, we, Ao Qin of the Chilong Clan, implore you to save us!"
She continued to kowtow, not stopping even though her forehead was already bloody.
Seeing his sister like this, the young boy, though not understanding why, followed suit and kowtowed.
On the peak of Kunlun Mountain.
Primordial Lord awoke from his seclusion. Following a subtle induction, he looked down and saw the two.
He frowned and began to divine.
At this moment, Taishang and Tongtian, who were beside him, also awoke from their enlightenment.
When Tongtian saw the siblings at the foot of the mountain and the three Yao flying outside the mountain, a look of anger appeared on his face.
"How hateful! Several Primordial Unity Golden Immortals are bullying children who haven't even become immortals yet!"
Tongtian, being the most straightforward, was about to stand up and intervene for them.
But at this moment, Taishang slowly looked over.
"Third Brother, do not meddle in this matter!"
"The external Karmic Tribulation is gradually rising. Those two are from the Dragon Race and carry immense Karmic Debt. As for the Yao, they are one of the three major powers. We should not get too involved in their karma."
Hearing this, Tongtian's expression froze, then gradually turned grim.
However, he had always trusted his Eldest Brother the most and could only reluctantly give up.
But at this moment, Primordial Lord stopped his calculating fingers.
He stood up and bowed to Taishang.
"Eldest Brother, I have divined that the young male child has a master-disciple fate with me. I will bear this karma alone."
"Good. If that is the case, we Three Pure Ones are not people who fear trouble. If other Fellow Daoists learn that we were bullied to our doorstep by juniors and did not resist, we would needlessly lose the name of Pangu's True Lineage."
After hearing Taishang's words, before Primordial Lord could react, Tongtian became happy and walked towards the outside of the mountain, without a second thought as to why Primordial Lord would agree to save someone.
At the foot of Kunlun Mountain.
The three demon immortals, Tiger, Sheep, and Deer, had already stepped inside. Feeling the dense innate Spiritual Energy around them, they couldn't help but let out a comfortable sigh.
"It's still comfortable here with these Great Powers. The Spiritual Energy in their Daoist sanctuary is more than a hundred times stronger than my cave dwelling. Even the Spiritual Energy in the mountains alone can be compared to the Demon Court."
"Eldest Brother, I still think we should just grab the two and leave. If we anger the owner here, even if they don't kill us, I fear we'll still suffer a severe beating!"
Sheep Demon Immortal was still quite cautious and advised in a low voice.
"Alright, alright, Third Brother, you're still so timid. How can you become a Demon God in the future?"
Deer Demon Immortal said this, but his footsteps quickened slightly. It wasn't out of fear of the so-called Great Powers, but rather an uncontrollable urge to capture the young female child.
After the three demons arrived below Kunlun, they saw Ao Qin and her brother kneeling on the ground. They seemed to have lost too much blood, their faces pale and their bodies swaying precariously.
"Hahaha, little girl, your Chilong Clan only has the two of you left. If you obediently come with me, perhaps you can keep your life!"
Deer Demon Immortal's eyes gleamed as he rubbed his hands together and said with a sinister smile.
"You...!"
Father, Mother, Qin'er tried her best!
Ao Qin saw the three demons and a flicker of despair flashed in her eyes.
Her brother and she were sent away by their parents before the Chilong Clan was annihilated. They were then told that there were cultivators with great Spiritual Power in Kunlun Mountain who were not afraid of the demon race's attacks, and they should seek refuge there.
She never expected that after experiencing near-death to get here, they would still be captured.
As for Deer Demon's words, she didn't consider them at all. Their Chilong Clan's ancestor was a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, yet he was still killed by the demon race. How could Deer Demon, a mere Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, protect them?
"You wish! I would rather die than let you succeed!"
Ao Qin glanced at her brother in her arms, a hint of reluctance showing, but she gritted her teeth and her internal Magical Power surged violently, threatening to detonate her body at any moment.
