Chapter 349: Chapter 298 [Times Have Changed, Together Against the Demon God] (Seeking Subscription)
The heavens and the earth turn, time presses.
Since Zhu Jiuyin and Emperor Jiang, the two ancestor witches, returned, many great powers of the Primordial World continued to return, with the other ancestor witches of the Witch Clan returning first.
They were formed from the Essence Blood of Pangu, with a particularly deep imprint in the Primordial World, and the Incense Fire Technique mysteriously guided their True Spirits. freēwēbnovel.com
However, even though they return from the Loss of Self Tribulation, it is impossible for them to recover their peak condition in a short period, causing no immediate chaos.
But on this day, the light of the great sun shone brightly, the endless power of the sun gathered, the Thirty-Three Heavens trembled, forcing Emperor Jiang to unveil his form.
The reason is none other!
Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, these two Golden Crows with Nine-Nine Supreme Destiny have returned!
The grievances between the Witch and Demon Clan has lasted for hundreds of yuanhui, and if given the chance, Emperor Jiang plans to stop their return.
He returned a few yuanhui earlier than the two, and although his strength is not what it once was at its peak, it is far above the present Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi.
These two, even if they rely on the power of the Taiyang Star to reshape their physical bodies, are now merely newly entered Daluo entities, hardly opponents of Space Ancestor Witch Emperor Jiang.
"Die!"
Just as Emperor Jiang was about to strike a lethal blow, a gust of Bifeng suddenly manifested, sweeping from the land of Beiming, spreading towards the Taiyang Star.
A trace of ghostly light also emerged within the Six Paths of Reincarnation, guarding Emperor Jiang at the forefront.
After the brief clash between the two saintly forces, they quickly withdrew, as neither Houtu nor Kunpeng wanted to engage in a life-and-death battle with the other.
Emperor Jiang, with a face full of indignation, turned to Houtu and said, "Little sister, why do you stop me? Those two Golden Crows have an unresolvable hatred with our Witch Clan!"
In the Witch Demon Tribulation, the fallen beings numbered in the billions and trillions; these ancestor witches can still return by relying on the characteristics of Daluo, while beings below Daluo level have no such opportunity!
As the leader of the Twelve Ancestor Witches, seeing Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, these two deadly enemies, naturally urges him to eliminate them while they are weak.
As for Kunpeng, should he dare to strike, Houtu would surely intervene to stop.
Yet...
He did not expect that Houtu’s intervention would not be to stop Kunpeng but to halt him, allowing Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi to be rescued by Kunpeng!
"Brother, now is not the time to quarrel with the Demon Clan!" Houtu sighed and explained, "Those Chaos Demon Gods who fell in the Opening Tribulation and were exterminated by the Father God are about to return! At this moment, all Great Divine Ability users of the Primordial World should unite against the external threat!"
"Ten thousand years ago, Yuanshi Tianzun sought both me and Kunpeng separately to establish a protocol that, irrespective of which Great Divine Ability users of the Witch and Demon Clan return, the other party shall not act with harm!"
"When Tian Wu and Shebi Corpse returned, Kunpeng did not strike, and now if we strike, would we not lose our righteous position?"
After becoming a Saint, Houtu realized many new insights, the Twelve Ancestor Witches, being descendants of Pangu, naturally held the righteous position in the Primordial World.
During the past tribulation, had they imitated the Three Taoist Sects by transforming Innate Spiritual Energy for the Primordial Heaven and Earth, or performed some beneficial acts for the Primordial World, wouldn’t the outcome have been different?
Initiating an active conflict with the Demon Clan directly lost their righteous stance, resulting in mutual defeat and loss.
Now, with Saints present in both the Witch and Demon Clan, another internal conflict would bring no benefit to heaven and earth; she does not wish the Witch Clan to repeat former mistakes!
Meanwhile, Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, situated in the Demon Master Palace, looked equally complex as they gazed at Kunpeng, who had already become a Human Dao Saint.
Emperor Jun sighed softly and spoke, "Kunpeng Daoist, long time no see! Times have changed, let me congratulate you on successfully proving your Dao!"
In the past, when establishing the Demon Clan, he and Donghuang Taiyi forced Kunpeng to join, even though later Kunpeng created the Demon Text and greatly contributed to the Demon Clan, there always existed a facade of harmony between the two.
Otherwise, Kunpeng would not have betrayed during the final stages of the Witch Demon War, absconding with the "River and Luo Books" meant for deploying the "Primordial River Luo Formation", ultimately leading to Emperor Jun’s demise.
And he did not expect, on this return of himself and Donghuang Taiyi, they nearly faced extermination by Emperor Jiang but ended up being saved by Kunpeng.
The Demon Clan dwindles, the Heavenly Court is overturned, and the Human Race becomes the protagonist of heaven and earth; only within a hundred yuanhui’s time, the Primordial World is vastly different.
However, in Emperor Jun’s heart, there’s little hatred towards Kunpeng; Kunpeng’s achievement in proving Dao and becoming a Saint undeniably shows the path he took was wrong.
Whether Emperor Dao or Royal Dao, or even imposing domination over all beings, none surpass the cultivating path of enlightenment; to unify the Primordial World needs more than mere strength.
It was rather Kunpeng who, by founding Demon Text and merging the Demon Clan’s legacy into the bloodline of later generations, enabled the Demon Clan’s continuation to the present.
What is right or wrong?
Time will reveal all!
"Your Majesty!"
Bai Ze and Shang Yang, beside Kunpeng, also looked at Emperor Jun with a complex expression.
Emperor Jun, despondent, glanced at the two, saying, "I am no longer the Demon Emperor, just call me Daoist from now on! I only wonder if Kunpeng Daoist saved our lives, wanting us to do something?"
"Let bygones be bygones!"
By this time, Kunpeng’s past grievances had mostly faded away.
Otherwise, when Emperor Jiang attacked the two, why would Kunpeng save their lives?
He could have simply watched indifferently!
He sighed softly and slowly uttered, "Back then, if I were in the positions of these two Daoists, I might not have done better than them!"
