Daochen scoffed. "He himself is sinister resentment. What makes you think he can restrain it?"
King Agu hurriedly spoke up. "I'm already trying to revive myself. It won't be long before I truly return to life."
"When that happens, evil ghosts, fiends, resentment, and dark souls will be no match for me."
"And my loyalty will be absolute. I am willing to swear to Heaven, willing to take an origin oath."
The Lord of Desire stared at him in shock. "You..."
He wanted to surrender, but not to sell himself to the Demon Emperor.
How could an origin oath be taken so casually? If he betrayed it, his origin would collapse and he would die. He would truly become someone else's slave.
Even in Remote Antiquity, no one had dared casually set such a precedent.
King Agu ignored him and looked sincerely at Demon Emperor Daochen. "Great Demon Emperor, Your Majesty, your strength has utterly conquered my heart. I am willing to give you my unwavering loyalty. As your lackey, I am willing to travel far and wide, spreading your glory."
"Your strength is incomparable. Even Pangu in his day was no greater than you. In fact, when Pangu was in the eighth heaven of the Saint Realm, he was inferior to you."
His expression was utterly sincere, without the slightest pretense.
The Lord of Desire was completely stunned. He could tell that this fellow truly dared to say it-and truly dared to do it!
This had driven him into a dead end as well.
Heavenly Dao Hongjun and Demon Emperor Daochen watched the Lord of Desire with smiles on their faces. Daochen was also wondering what choice the Lord of Desire would make.
If he refused to surrender, the Demon Emperor felt it would be safer to eliminate him.
