Centuries later, when Qingqiu Li and Nuwa emerged from seclusion, Wu Chu finally learned what had happened.

The anomaly in the final Great Dao fluctuations, which caused them to awaken and then re-enter the Great Dao fluctuations to continue observing the battle, was indeed caused by the Three Clans' kings.

However, the Three Clans kings did not fight each other, but instead waged a great war against the Demon Ancestor Luohu.

In Fuxi's words, this Three Clans War might all be a setup, a scheme orchestrated by the Three Clans to lure out the Old Demon who has been lurking in the shadows.

Although Luohou's whereabouts are hard to find, since he cultivates the Killing Path, could Luohou resist taking the opportunity to cultivate his Dao of Slaughter when the Three Clans are in chaos? And they only need to follow the aura of the Slaughter Great Dao, and they should be able to find a clue!

Upon hearing Fuxi's deduction, Wu Chu felt that this possibility was quite high.

If it weren't for this reason, why would the Three Clans, knowing that Luohou was a troublemaker lurking in the shadows, foolishly engage in a bloody battle?

If their intention was to find and eliminate Luohou, then it makes perfect sense; why would they do something so foolish?

Moreover, in order to make this situation realistic enough, the losses among the Three Clans were not small, and the losses to the entire Primordial Land were also considerable.

Even knowing it would result in heavy losses, they still did it. What kind of courage is that?

But soon, Wu Chu felt that things might not be so simple. After all, the conflict between the Three Clans was certainly not unfounded.

Perhaps the Three Clans just wanted to kill two birds with one stone; regardless of whether they could ultimately lure out that Old Demon, they Three Clans to first contend for supremacy.

"I never expected it to be like this!"

Little Moon Spirit sighed softly, then looked at Fuxi and the others, "How did the battle go, seniors and sisters? Was that Demon Lord killed?"

Nuwa smiled and shook her head, "We can only deduce their identities and the course of the battle from the fluctuations of the Great Dao; we cannot see the outcome."

Based on the Demon Lord aura described by Wu Chu and Houtu, they were certain that the one fighting against the ancestors of the Three Clans was indeed that Demon Lord. A being capable of fighting the ancestors of the Three Clans for hundreds of years was simply inconceivable.

Wu Chu also found it somewhat unbelievable; had Luohou become this strong?

Last time they managed to escape from the Qilin Ancestor, but what about this time?

Wu Chu pondered silently for a moment, then sighed softly, "He probably still managed to escape!"

Although it is unknown how Luohou escaped from the Three Clans progenitors, judging from the history of Primordial World mythology, after a battle with Ancestor Hongjun, Luohou seems to have transformed into the Demon Realm, which led to the saying "the higher the righteous path, the greater the demonic path."

If such a thing were to happen, Heavenly Dao would surely react, and all living beings in the Primordial World would know about it.

Just like when the Three Clans were founded, all living beings in the Primordial World knew it.

Fuxi and the other two looked at Wu Chu and Chu with curiosity. Nuwa asked, "How do you know?"

"It's just a feeling; I can't really explain why."

Wu Chu shook his head, not wanting to reveal that Luohou, unwilling to be destroyed, had transformed himself into the Demon Realm. After all, that was something that would happen in the future, and it was still uncertain whether the current Demon Ancestor Luohu had the ability to do so.

Perhaps that Old Demon really was defeated, and the history of Primordial World mythology was rewritten by the Three Clans?

Hearing Wu Chu and Fuxi's deductions, Feng Hen, Feng Xi, and Wu Zhan exchanged bewildered glances.

It seems no one expected that this Three Clans War would conceal such a deadly trap.

Wu Zhan looked at the Little Yellow Dragon Beanie Dragon, then transmitted his voice to Wu Chu, asking, "Could it be that the great war between the Three Clans was all a lie? What about the Little Yellow Dragon's parents...?"

"That's probably true!" Wu Chu sighed softly. "However, the one who made the move might not be a real Phoenix Clan, but more likely Demonic Evil disguised as Phoenix Clan."

Of course, this is only one possibility. Wu Chu used this to comfort Wu Zhan, so that he wouldn't fight with Feng Xi again.

Having lived on Purple Jade Mountain for so many years, if it weren't for Wu Chu guarding the place, this black dragon and that Little Phoenix might actually have started fighting.

Feng Xi is not one to suffer losses; even the Little Qilin Feng Hen is often bullied by her to the point of being unable to express his suffering.

Of course, it's also possible that the Phoenix Clan was behind this to gain the trust of that Old Demon, but Phoenix Clan got out of control during their operation, resulting in the death of Little Yellow Dragon's mother. Such an accident is quite possible.

Therefore, in Wu Chu's view, even if the hidden plot to kill Luohou in this Three Clans War fails to materialize, the Three Clans may still continue to weaken each other.

After chatting for a while, Wu Chu called Little Yellow Dragon over and asked him to pay his respects to the elders such as Fuxi, Nuwa, and Qingqiu Li.

The Little Yellow Dragon, both obedient and curious, bowed deeply to its three seniors.

The three of them were also a little curious, but they still took out some small items from their pockets and handed them to him.

Little Yellow Dragon glanced at Wu Chu, Wu Chu coughed lightly and said, "It's a gift from elders, I dare not refuse! Please accept it, and thank these seniors instead."

Little Yellow Dragon obediently accepted the small gifts, thanked them, and then quietly stepped aside.

Qingqiu Li looked at the Little Yellow Dragon and asked, puzzled, "A Chu, why are you thinking of taking on disciples? Didn't you say... shouldn't you be thinking about how to improve yourself?"

Qingqiu Li wanted to ask, "Didn't you say you didn't want to get involved with the Three Clans? How come you've now taken a dragon as your disciple? Isn't that going back on your word?"

Fuxi and Nuwa also looked at Wu Chu with some curiosity.

Wu Chu coughed lightly and smiled, "Little Yellow Dragon is quite good. He's warm-hearted, polite, and has good perseverance. Although his aptitude isn't outstanding among the Dragon Clan, when cultivating the Golden Core Path, aptitude is secondary. What matters most is his comprehension and his future fortune."

But secretly he transmitted his voice, saying, "This is a long story. The Dragon Clan actually tried to tempt me with a Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure that contains the Laws of the Dao of Qiankun, and even offered to have this Little Yellow Dragon sever ties with their Dragon Clan. I couldn't resist the temptation. Alas!"

"..."

If they knew what 'Versailles' meant, they'd probably just use those three words to roast him.

Fuxi went even further, saying, "Is there any other chance like this where you can get a Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure just for taking on a disciple? Believe me, I can turn the Dragon Clan into a penniless pauper!"

Qingqiu Li and Nuwa nodded vigorously, agreeing with Fuxi's statement.

"Haha... Come on, let's drink!"

After this great battle, the Three Clans gradually ceased their chaotic fighting. This suggests that Three Clans probably felt the Demon Lord had been defeated.

But in Wu Chu's view, this Old Demon Luohou had probably used some kind of trick to deceive the three ancestors of the Three Clans.

After this experience, Luohou will likely be even more elusive and harder to deal with.
