In the sky, the divine radiance emanating from Taiyi gradually faded. He shifted his gaze from Kunpeng to Bai Ze. He had not known his elder brother had sent this old fellow here, but that was just as well. Kunpeng's willingness to submit was a blessing for the Demon Race. It was just that A Yue... would be a little troublesome.
"Hum..." Taiyi shook his head at the thought, then opened his hand. White light flashed, and an enormous banner forty to fifty feet tall appeared in his grasp, shining with five-colored light and a thousand auspicious rays. It was none other than the supreme treasure of the Demon Race-the Demon-Summoning Banner!
"Kunpeng, surrender a strand of your true spirit. I'll give you half a year to settle the Phoenix Race's affairs. After that, you'll accompany me to the Heavenly Court!" Taiyi declared in a thunderous voice.
"Hmph!" Kunpeng snorted, his eyes closed and his head lowered. He did not act immediately. Only after a long while did he slowly open his eyes. He glanced at the peacock and the Great Roc subdued by Bai Ze, then at the countless Flying Bird Army troops surrounding Bai Ze, none of whom dared attack him rashly. Finally, his face stiffened, and he raised his hand, splitting off a strand of his true spirit and sending it toward Taiyi.
"Whoosh!" Taiyi moved his arm, waving the Demon-Summoning Banner and drawing the strand of true spirit inside. A faint smile then flickered across his face.
With that, Kunpeng would henceforth be a great general of his Demon Race!
What, was he not afraid that Kunpeng would rebel someday after what he had done today?
*Hmph, a strand of Kunpeng's true spirit was already in the Demon-Summoning Banner. Whenever he wished, he could destroy Kunpeng
