The two of them clashed in an instant.
Hong Yun had reached the peak of the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal realm. He was only one step away from becoming a Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal, and he had an endless array of treasures at his disposal. Kunpeng soon found himself on the defensive.
Bai Ze and the other four Demon Saints exchanged glances. Then they flashed forward and joined the attack.
Besieged by six Quasi-Sage-level experts, Hong Yun felt the pressure surge. As he fought them off, he shouted:
"Kunpeng! I'm willing to compensate you with spiritual treasures and settle the karma between us!"
Kunpeng's face darkened. He raised the Great Desolation Halberd, his companion treasure, and brought it crashing down on Hong Yun's head.
"Once I kill you, your treasures will be mine anyway!"
Hong Yun took the blow head-on, the force numbing the web of his hand. Seeing that Kunpeng was determined to kill him, he roared toward Western Mount Sumeru:
"Jie Yin! Zhun Ti! I yielded my seat to you in the Purple Heaven Palace back then! Are you still not going to help repay that debt of karma?"
Inside Mount Sumeru, Jie Yin and Zhun Ti were watching Hong Yun's battle. At the roar, Zhun Ti turned to his senior brother.
"Senior Brother, we do owe Hong Yun for yielding his seat. Should we intervene?"
Jie Yin was silent for a long time before speaking slowly. "That karmic debt is immense. Besides, the Heavenly Court is powerful. We may be drawing fire upon ourselves."
Zhun Ti disagreed. "But why do I feel... as though the power of karma won't harm us? And doesn't Hong Yun have plenty of treasures? The West is impoverished. Perhaps we could get something out of this."
Jie Yin fell into thought.
