"You really do hate him, don't you?"

Bai Yu was surprised to hear that. He had not expected that, upon obtaining the Demon God Seal, the first thing Su Muyue thought of was digging up the Demon God's grave.

"It's not a matter of hate. I've never denied the Demon God's achievements. Without him, the Ancient Demon Court could never have been established, nor could it have added such a powerful line of defense for the Eternal Continent against the Evil Calamity Clan."

"When I first entered the Demon Court, I admired him greatly."

"But people's hearts can change, and even mighty powers can rot from within. By that time, the Demon God had long since lost his original aspirations. He even began secretly raising the Evil Calamity Clan, all for the sake of becoming an immortal."

"That was also the main reason I rebelled. Even if he came to his senses after I was sealed away and eventually died in that great war, it still cannot erase what he once did."

"Though I was sealed, because of the methods involved, I knew every detail of the Demon Court's destruction."

"So the Demon God was a contradictory man. Now that he is dead, everything he left behind should do its part for this world. Let that be his atonement."

Su Muyue said with relief.

Bai Yu raised his brows at that, not expecting the Ancient Demon Court to hold such a secret.
