Chapter 1242: Chapters 967-968: Courtesy Before Force, Confrontation Like a Game of Chess!

"Under Leifeng Tower lies a demon, the old village folks’ ire does not dissipate. Human nature yearns for freedom, but Buddhist rules are hard to escape. The Spiritual Snake’s loyalty is a tale well told, while Fa Hai’s baseless trouble brews... Haha, laughable, laughable..."

In a desolate temple near Leifeng Tower, Pang Ban stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the distant tower whose spire peeked through the horizon, his expressionless face breaking into a low laugh.

All the personal guards of the Demon Palace knelt over the empty ground behind him.

Standing at various positions on either side were more than a dozen individuals from the Demon Sect, each with a distinct aura and demeanor.

Among them were Demon Marshal Zhao Deyan, Sect Leader Ren Tianxing of the Western Demon Sect, and other notorious demon magnates with malevolent reputations in the Martial World, truly a chaotic scene of dancing demons.

Yet at this moment, all these demons had gathered here, subtly seeming to rally under Demon Master Pang Ban’s leadership.

If outsiders saw this scene, they would be undoubtedly shocked; who would have thought this group of rebellious demons would willingly bow to one person today.

But the emergence of today’s situation is not solely due to Demon Master Pang Ban’s unparalleled strength making him the greatest among the demons, but also because of his greater understanding of Leifeng Tower than most demons. It is the interweaving of power and interest that has led to such an incredible demon supremacy.

"Demon Master, no matter what you know about Leifeng Tower, given that the Shaolin bunch of bald monks have yet to respond to this matter, are we to wait for them to make a move before we act? Wouldn’t that be too late?"

Demon Marshal Zhao Deyan asked with a frown.

He was ranked third among the top eight experts of the Demon Sect’s Six Paths, behind only Evil King Shi Zhixuan and Yin Queen Zhu Yu Yan, and he was highly valued by Martial Venerate Bi Xuan in the Turkic region.

Following the deaths of Evil King Shi Zhixuan and Yin Queen Zhu Yu Yan, and the disappearance of Demon Lord Xi Ying, his reputation within the Demon Sect’s Six Paths soared to unparalleled heights.

This venture was initially intended to demonstrate demonic might during the chaotic dance of demons at Leifeng Tower and further consolidate his status within the demonic world.

Who would have expected that after his disappearance following a battle with the Black Wind Village Chief, Demon Master Pang Ban would reappear, and with a mere Heavenly Human 3rd Realm strength, he could hardly contend with the profound and unpredictable Demon Master Pang Ban.

However, from Pang Ban, it was learned that the base of Leifeng Tower contained not only a Buddhist treasure.

Moreover, this Buddhist treasure also suppressed another Evil Emperor Relic left by the Demon Sect’s First Evil Emperor Xie Tiao, which contained Xie Tiao’s pure Primordial Essence.

No one would originally believe such a thing.

After all, it is well-known throughout the world that there is only one Holy Relic, and that Holy Relic is now in the hands of the Black Wind Village Chief, so how could a second one emerge?

But with the long-missing Demon Master Pang Ban personally coming for this, and considering that the Black Wind Village Chief had also lingered around Leifeng Tower recently, the demons had no choice but to believe, so they stayed behind with their schemes in mind.

Upon Zhao Deyan’s words, the other demons quickly expressed their agreement.

Knowing that they are no match for Pang Ban, they seem to comply with his orders as a temporary measure, hoping Pang Ban will withstand the pressure from Shaolin at a critical moment, allowing them to fish in troubled waters.

This thought seems naive, yet it is the situation that would truly unfold.

Imagine if Shaolin did come for Leifeng Tower; would their experts focus on the evidently strongest Demon Master Pang Ban, or on other small fries?

Pang Ban, of course, understood this rationale but did not mind.

Compared to the schemes of the demons, he had his own calculations. Gathering everyone, demanding their obedience, and offering supposed benefits were in anticipation of the thoughts in everyone’s minds. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Why the rush, everyone?"

Demon Master Pang Ban’s eyes gleamed with wisdom, and he said with a faint smile, "I have personally written to Master Du Nie of Shaolin, stating that if Shaolin does not want this Buddhist treasure, we of the demonic path will take it back and use it as a spittoon. I think they definitely would not want to see that happen."

The demons were all astonished by this, and Ren Tianxing asked, bewildered, "Wouldn’t it be better if those bald monks from Shaolin didn’t come? Why create more hurdles, Demon Master? Do you truly have the confidence to take down Shaolin’s entire group?"

Some of the lesser demons around expressed further anxiety, their eyes darting as they discussed among themselves.

The Demon Palace held vast resources, and the Demon Master wielded immense demonic might, naturally unafraid of Shaolin.

But it was different for them; they hoped Shaolin would come but not too many, nor too strong.

Pang Ban’s provocation might indeed cause Shaolin to dispatch some old figures; that would truly mean a bloody battle.

Pang Ban’s voice turned icy as he sneered, "Look at yourselves, where is the demeanor of demonic heroes? Is a single Shaolin enough to paralyze you with fear?"

The demons were all enraged by these words, with Zhao Deyan and others furrowing their brows.

Pang Ban looked up at the soon-to-set sun hanging by the mountain’s edge and said calmly with hands behind his back, "Do not forget, why did the Black Wind Village Chief linger around Leifeng Tower for days but eventually leave? If the treasure beneath Leifeng Tower were so easy to take, with his capability, why couldn’t he take it away?

And just as the Martial World petitioned Shaolin to crusade against Black Wind Village, the matter of Leifeng Tower began to be sensationally spread, claiming that a significant treasure left by Shaolin Dharma Ancestor was within, diverting the Martial World’s and Shaolin’s attention.

Isn’t it suspicious how coincidental this is? Do none of you question it?"

The expressions of the crowd shifted; among them, the seasoned demons understood many underlying connections but still did not have a clear concept of the dangers within Leifeng Tower.

Now hearing Pang Ban articulate this understanding, they immediately grasped his implication.
