The Dao Ancestor's Silver Tongue! Redirecting the Calamity
Hongjun's assertive attitude surprised Yang Mei and the other demon gods.
Wasn't it agreed that he would be sealed away?
Does this look like someone who has been sealed away?
Just then, the Shadow Demon God snorted coldly, letting out a sinister laugh, having already seen through Hongjun's bravado.
"Hongjun, I'd love to know what methods you have to keep us here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and pointed, and several thin lines formed from laws pierced through the Three Pure Ones Two Western Sages, from head to tail.
The saints froze, their eyes filled with unwavering shock and disbelief.
They seemed unable to believe that their teacher was so fierce and powerful; how could these demons dare to attack them?
Are you out of your mind?
These were their last thoughts. The Shadow Demon God raised his hand and shook it, and the saints were shattered into dust by a powerful force.
The Heavenly Dao Sage, who could manipulate the sun and moon and control the winds and clouds in the Primordial World and was almost omnipotent, was as fragile as an ant in the Chaos and before the powerful demon gods, and could be destroyed with a flick of his finger!
"You're courting death!" Hongjun was furious. He hadn't expected the other party to be so decisive, showing no mercy whatsoever.
"Hehe, Hongjun, no need to bluff. If you were in your prime, would you still be wasting your breath on us?"
"How much magic power do you have left?"
The Shadow Demon God sneered, having already seen through Hongjun's little tricks.
He still has the seal on his body, but he's pretending to be one.
Hongjun's expression froze for a moment, then he suddenly laughed and stopped pretending.
With the Three Pure Ones and the Two Western Sages gone, he no longer had any scruples and no longer needed to worry about the face of the Dao Ancestor, so he simply let loose and did his best.
"You're right, there is indeed a seal within me that limits my magical power, but it's still no problem for me to deal with you all."
Hongjun burst into laughter, a departure from his usual demeanor.
"Don't forget, I am one with the Heavenly Dao. Even with a part of me sealed away, I still possess the power to suppress and kill everything!"
His voice was loud and his words were full of confidence.
These words caused the demons' expressions to change slightly, each with a different look, and for a moment they were unsure what to do.
They all looked at the Shadow Demon God, waiting to see what he would say.
"Hongjun, you can't even handle a Golden Crow at the sixth level of the Heavenly Realm, how could you possibly be a match for us?"
The Shadow Demon God chuckled, unperturbed by Hongjun's one-sided words.
"Hmph! If you don't believe me, you're welcome to try."
"Do you really think that's an ordinary Golden Crow? Don't blame me for not warning you, its true origin is terrifying, so terrifying that you don't even want to mention it!"
Hongjun said with a cold laugh, his eyes filled with contempt.
"Ridiculous! This Little Earthworm is talking nonsense!"
"What is it that you can't bring up? Tell me about it."
The demons were enraged; they had been slighted and looked down upon.
What could possibly frighten them?
Seeing the indignant expressions of the demons, Hongjun chuckled inwardly but remained outwardly composed as he continued speaking.
"Have you ever wondered why Ling Xiao possesses the Chaos Green Lotus?"
"Um?"
The demons' expressions shifted; they hadn't really thought about this question carefully!
Hongjun took in the expressions of the demons and gods, and without giving them time to think, continued to speak.
"That's because Ling Xiao is the reincarnation of Pangu!"
These words were like a thunderclap from a clear sky; the expressions of the demons changed drastically, and they all shouted, "Impossible!"
"Hongjun, Pangu already transformed into the Primordial World when he created the world, so how could he have a reincarnation?"
Yang Mei shouted loudly, "This is utterly absurd! The Little Earthworm is definitely trying to fool them!"
The Demon God of Time, the Chaos Demon God, the Slaughter Demon God, and others all wore expressions of shock and rage, their eyes revealing boundless killing intent and a trace of fear.
Hearing the name Pangu brings back memories of the past, of how they were manipulated and killed by Pangu at will, like ants and earthworms, utterly devoid of dignity and a sense of existence.
This is an irreconcilable feud, an eternal destiny and entanglement.
Upon hearing about Pangu again, his killing intent instantly surged.
"Hongjun, do you think you can fool me by fabricating such a lie?"
The Shadow Demon God spoke coldly, the killing intent in his eyes not directed at Pangu, but at Hongjun.
He naturally didn't believe such absurd claims.
Hongjun stared directly at the Shadow Demon God, completely open and honest, without the slightest hint of guilt.
"The Golden Crow was born from the Sun Star, and the Sun Star was transformed from Pangu's left eye. With such a strong connection, why is it impossible?"
"Even if Ling Xiao isn't the reincarnation of Pangu, he must be related to him!"
Hongjun spoke with a righteous indignation and a serious expression.
"Nonsense! Everything in the entire Primordial World was created by Pangu, even your three useless disciples. Are they all reincarnations of Pangu?"
"As for your claim that the Golden Crow is related to Pangu, that's utter nonsense. If Pangu were still alive, he would have returned long ago. Why would he be here scheming and plotting like you, so petty and calculating?"
He raised his Yang Mei and questioned loudly, looking at Hongjun with a mocking gaze, knowing his character all too well.
You can't believe a single word they say!
"Hehe... Yang Mei, it's normal that you don't believe me, because there are many secrets you don't know."
Hongjun glanced at Yang Mei and said meaningfully.
"When Ling Xiao faced the phantom of Pangu, they had a brief exchange, and in the end, Pangu dispersed without a fight..."
"This is not me talking nonsense, but something that really happened."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the demons and gods changed slightly, and their hearts were stirred. Even Yang Mei, who had never believed it, frowned and pondered.
"You've said all this just so we'll let you go and turn our attention to Ling Xiao?"
The Shadow Demon God suddenly spoke, without dwelling on whether the matter was true or false.
Upon hearing such blunt words, Hongjun didn't even change his expression, readily admitting it without any hesitation.
"That's exactly what I meant; it's better for everyone! And now that Ling Xiao is injured, it's the perfect opportunity to kill him."
"If you insist on fighting me, the only outcome will be mutual destruction, and you will gain nothing."
"If we kill Ling Xiao, we can at least get a Chaos Green Lotus!"
Hongjun spoke slowly, his gaze calm and unfathomable, giving off a mysterious and powerful aura.
Upon hearing this, the demons hesitated and all looked at the Shadow Demon God.
The Shadow Demon God did not rush to reply. What Hongjun said did make some sense. Ling Xiao's existence was indeed special, and the Chaos Green Lotus on his body was very intriguing.
Taking advantage of Golden Crow's serious injury, this is the perfect opportunity to kill him.
We can wait until we obtain the Chaos Green Lotus before turning our attention to Hongjun. With the Chaos Green Lotus in hand, suppressing Hongjun will be a piece of cake.
With that thought, the Shadow Demon God calmly spoke, "I admit I'm moved by you."
"You want to use us to kill Ling Xiao? Then I will grant your wish!"
"This matter is good for everyone and benefits the world!"
Hongjun said with a smile.
Both sides harbored ulterior motives and knew the other harbored ill intentions.
They simply understood each other implicitly, hit it off immediately, and each had their own plans.
Hongjun wanted to use the Demon God to kill Ling Xiao, while the Shadow Demon God wanted to obtain the Chaos Green Lotus and then return to suppress Hongjun.
