Preface: This chapter was written on May 7, 2018, on the way to Guyuan in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region for a gathering of writers from the "volunteer literature" network of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League.
…
Loopy Toad and Zhenyuan were dazed when they heard this indecent conversation from Demon Saint's virtual body telepathically.
Could it be that this guy was also indecent?
Loopy Toad did its best to keep calm; Demon Saint's tall and mysterious image had been completely destroyed in its mind. Loopy Toad remembered that when it was very young, it had idolized Second Generation Demon Saint for a time, and had collected a lot of different figurines of him in the clan.
No one had ever seen Demon Saint's true appearance, so these figurines were all different. They had all been made by master figurines in the demon world. Loopy Toad still remembered that some of them were rare collectibles — they had been sculpted by the famous figurine master Artoria using the Sword of Victory!
Second Generation Demon Saint continued telepathically through the virtual body. "I've already ordered Sage Master to prepare a banquet. Both of you can rest assured that this isn't a Hongmen Banquet. Thanks to Senior Dog and Immortal Zhenyuan's help this time, the turmoil in the four inner territories was quelled, and the four demon gods were united against a common enemy. I actually can't thank you enough. "
Zhenyuan laughed in his heart. "You could actually tell that it was an act?"
"If I couldn't even tell that, I could directly retire. When Demon Saint retires, he has a lot of pension funds … "
Second Generation Demon Saint said meaningfully, "If Immortal Zhenyuan had really made a move, we wouldn't have used the power of our individual willpower to arm wrestle just now. If we had really fought, the entire demon world would have been destroyed. Also, Senior Dog hasn't made a move from beginning to end, presumably because of the bigger picture. "
"Mm, you're quite honest."
Immortal Zhenyuan nodded. "If Senior Dog had made a move, you would have died with a casual level twelve spell."
Loopy Toad: "…"
"So, this only highlights the need for our discussion. I hope both Senior Dog and Immortal Zhenyuan can come. This isn't just a matter of life and death for the demon world, it also has a lot to do with the human cultivation world. "
Second Generation Demon Saint smiled bitterly and said telepathically, "Actually, Senior Dog and Immortal should have already sensed that the human cultivation world is going to be plunged into a catastrophe … The fact that Immortal didn't hesitate to spend a thousand years looking for Drought Star is the best evidence."
Saying this, Immortal Zhenyuan's expression turned serious. "What do you know?"
Second Generation Demon Saint kept them in suspense. "I'll have to wait for Senior Dog and the Immortal to come to the Holy Palace to explain this in detail."
Loopy Toad hadn't expected Demon Saint to actually invite it to Demon Saint's Holy Palace.
In the past, this was a place that Buttface didn't even dare to think about. He didn't have any chance to set foot in it. Maybe it would be a good idea to visit it?
Furthermore, Loopy Toad was also very curious about Demon Saint's succession pattern. Maybe it could get some clues through this exchange …
After a moment of silence, Loopy Toad nodded. "We can go take a look."
Zhenyuan: "Since Senior Dog has already decided, of course I'll keep you company!"
Second Generation Demon Saint was overjoyed. "Then I'll await your arrival. However, I need to make one thing clear. Due to the restriction of the Holy Pillar's power, I am unable to personally welcome the two of you. I need Senior Dog and the Immortal to go to the bottom of the Holy Pillar together. When the time comes, there will be a Saint Master from the Holy Palace to receive you. "
Zhenyuan was startled. "Don't you have an immortal ladder? So low? "
"There's only stairs … Furthermore, the last person who used stairs to reach the top took three hundred years. It was really too tragic … Furthermore, he didn't have any supplies in between. He climbed until he was exhausted and almost died inside! "As he said this, Zhenyuan thought that Second Generation Demon Saint sounded like he was about to cry.
Zhenyuan: "Why is Demon Saint so clear about this?"
Second Generation Demon Saint: "Because that person … was me …"
"…"
After Demon Saint said this, the air was quiet again as he withdrew his virtual body and the power of withering.
All the demons present were stunned.
The duel had actually ended just like that …
And it seemed to be a draw?
"Let's go."
Loopy Toad was silent for a moment before it spoke to Zhenyuan.
"Very well, senior!" Zhenyuan nodded in agreement and immediately withdrew his dharma image. The dazzling golden light immediately dissipated along with the dharma image.
After that, Immortal Zhenyuan flicked his finger, and the heroic spirit throne changed. After receiving instructions, some of the heroic spirits in front of Loopy Toad started to rearrange themselves, and a long staircase actually extended from the top all the way to the ground.
Zhenyuan smiled slightly, revealing his canine teeth. "Senior Dog, this way!"
Loopy Toad: "…"
…
…
Above the Holy Pillar, Second Generation Demon Saint heaved a long sigh.
Sage Master stared at him. "I never thought that human cultivators would be willing to cooperate with our demon world. The misunderstanding between the human world and the demon world over the years has been too deep …"
Second Generation Demon Saint nodded. "I originally thought that this was a dead end. But after exchanging blows just now, I realized that Immortal Zhenyuan is very strong … plus that Senior Dog, whose realm is unfathomable, and its mysterious owner. If we can join hands, we can revive this dead end … "
"The demon world isn't like Earth; the demon star is in the Milky Way. Relying on the Gate Between Worlds to link the human and demon worlds, I actually thought that the human world and the demon world might be able to develop peacefully, but I never expected it to come to this point today … "
Having said that, Second Generation Demon Saint had also seen how Loopy Toad and Immortal Zhenyuan had helped to bring the four territories together today. On this point alone, he felt that the relationship between the human world and the demon world hadn't reached an irreparable point.
So as long as they were willing to work together, they would definitely be able to overcome this difficulty.
Demon Saint continued, "Although the monster that fell out of the space fissure was just a corpse, if it had been alive, I definitely wouldn't have been able to deal with it on my own. If the strong of our two worlds join hands, there's still a chance! "
Sage Master sighed. "It seems that you already have a plan … then I have nothing to say. But I never thought that you would actually have the leisure to worry about world affairs. "
"Although I can't wait for Third Generation Demon Saint to appear as soon as possible, I have to at least accomplish something that will be recorded in the history of the demon world during my term of office! How does the saying go … How do you become a successful demon? "
Second Generation Demon Saint thought for a bit before saying, "Five years without turning into a box, ten years patrolling the mountains like a small drill, a hundred years at the peak of a demon's life, even if you aren't a demon god king. Living an ignoble life for a thousand years without going to the wall, leaving behind merits and fame … If one day I die of old age, my portrait will still be hung on the wall, and ten thousand demons will line up to offer incense! "
"Good poem, good poem …"
Sage Master was startled. "I never thought you would have this kind of talent …"
"Before I became Demon Saint back then, I was just an allegro singer!" Second Generation Demon Saint sighed. "If it wasn't for my good luck, I probably wouldn't even be a small drill now … So at least during my term of office, I want to make big news. And then retire … "
