The Grand Emperor left Queen Mother of the West's place and immediately called Xi Chi and Qiu Feng to the Numinous Sky Hall.
"Go to the human continent immediately and check on the sacred beasts. If there's a dragon-slaying race, kill them on the spot, no matter who they are," the Grand Emperor said coldly to them.
Sacred beasts? Dragon-Slaying race?
Xi Chi and Qiu Feng looked at each other. If there really were sacred beasts, they couldn't possibly be a match for the dragon-slaying race.
"Go down and find the sacred beasts." The Grand Emperor waved his hand. He couldn't control his irritation.
After Xi Chi and the others left, the Grand Emperor sat quietly for a while before leaving the Numinous Sky Hall.
He came to Penglai in the Nine Heavens. It was a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. The water was clear, and the fog lingered. Before entering, he already felt a sense of peace and contentment.
"Since the Grand Emperor is here, why don't you come in?" A hoarse voice came from inside.
"Old Weirdo Du, it's really not suitable for you to live in such a beautiful place," the Grand Emperor said slowly. "I almost thought I came to the wrong place."
There was a bamboo house in the center of the island surrounded by streams. A white-haired old man walked out of it. He was dressed in black, and his eyes gave off a sinister aura. "Be careful when you walk. Don't step on my treasures."
The Grand Emperor took a look. Penglai looked like a paradise, but it was actually filled with poisons that could kill several big demon beasts. "I have something to talk to you about."
"Hehe, the Grand Emperor hasn't stepped foot here for tens of thousands of years. It must be a big deal," Old Weirdo Du said with a smile. His smile was amiable, but it gave off a sinister feeling.
"Didn't you like the human continent? I'll give it to you, "the Grand Emperor said plainly.
Old Weirdo Du raised his eyebrows and looked at the Grand Emperor. "There's a conspiracy."
"The premise," the Grand Emperor said in a low voice, "is to destroy the human continent. I want a new one."
"Grand Emperor, are you still father and son with the Young Emperor?" Old Weirdo Du asked with a smile that wasn't quite a smile. "Back then, I asked you for the human continent, but you didn't agree. Why are you willing to give it to me now? You know very well what will happen if the human continent falls into my hands. Young Emperor will be the first to disagree. "
"As long as you can rebuild the human continent, it's yours," the Grand Emperor said plainly. "Do you want it?"
Old Freak Du chuckled. "Even if I turn that place into a purgatory and turn all the mortals into fertilizer for me, it wouldn't be a problem?"
"Unless you're afraid of Mo Rongzhan," the Grand Emperor said coldly.
"Grand Emperor, I'm not you. That human continent is just a back garden of the divine race. Its life and death depend on my mood." Old Freak Du drank a mouthful of wine and looked at the Grand Emperor out of the corner of his eye.
"Do you want it or not? Cut the crap." The Grand Emperor's face darkened. He hated the human continent to the extreme and didn't want to see this place exist.
Old Freak Du looked at the Grand Emperor. They had fought side by side before, so he knew the Grand Emperor's character very well. As long as it was something that damaged his reputation, he wouldn't do it. He would only instigate others to do it for him.
The human continent had existed for tens of thousands of years, from its initial barren state to its current prosperity. It wasn't something that could be destroyed easily. The Grand Emperor didn't want to destroy the human continent with his own hands, lest he alarm the gods in the nine heavens.
That was why he thought of him.
"No," Old Freak Du said straightforwardly. "Grand Emperor, I've already cultivated my heart and character. I'm no longer addicted to poisons."
The Grand Emperor laughed coldly, not believing Old Freak Du's words at all.
"Are you sure?" the Grand Emperor plainly said, "Even if there are sacred beasts in the human continent now, you won't be moved?"
Old Freak Du's expression changed. "What did you say?"
"You are isolated here and don't know anything. I heard the sacred beasts' voices with my own ears. Moreover, the dragon slayer race has appeared," the Grand Emperor said.
Nonsense! If there were sacred beasts, then there had to be dragon slayers.
Old Freak Du stood up hesitantly and paced back and forth. "How can there be sacred beasts in the human continent? Didn't the dragon slayer race disappear tens of thousands of years ago?"
"They appeared again tens of thousands of years after they disappeared," the Grand Emperor said word by word. "Didn't you want the corpses of sacred beasts to make medicine?"
"It would be better if I could capture them alive." Old Freak Du looked a little crazy.
The Grand Emperor smiled slightly. "Now is the time."
"Let me think about it." Old Freak Du was already tempted. It wouldn't be easy to destroy the human continent.
"Back then, you could even destroy the Desolate Hell," the Grand Emperor plainly said. "Now, you're just refining another hell on the human world."
Old Freak Du said, "I was sealed for so many years, and I can only stay here every day."
"If you had the sacred beasts, you wouldn't have been sealed," the Grand Emperor said.
"I don't believe there are sacred beasts." Old Freak Du shook his head. "I want to go to the human continent to take a look."
The Grand Emperor looked at him expressionlessly. "Would I lie to you?"
"I don't know if you would lie to me, but it's true that you want to use me to destroy the human continent, right?" Old Freak Du laughed coldly.
"I don't want you to go to the human continent," the Grand Emperor said coldly.
Old Freak Du chuckled and said, "But I'm the only one who's willing to go against Young Emperor. Don't think I don't know that Young Emperor has always been protecting those mortals. You don't like mortals, but Young Emperor doesn't. Speaking of which, does your son know why you hate mortals so much?"
The Grand Emperor's expression suddenly turned ugly, as if he had remembered something he didn't want to remember.
Seeing his expression, Old Freak Du knew the answer. He laughed and said, "You should tell Young Emperor. Maybe then your son will understand you."
"Shut up!" The Grand Emperor said angrily. "Give me an answer in three days, or I'll let someone else do it."
"Alright." Old Freak Du nodded and decided to go to the human continent for a walk.
Just as the Grand Emperor was about to leave, Old Freak Du called out to him, "Does Zhong Jin know about the sacred beasts?"
Zhong Jin was the name of Queen Mother of the West.
The Grand Emperor coldly said, "If even I know about it, how could she not?"
"Then you want me to snatch the sacred beasts from her." Old Freak Du sighed.
"Three days." The Grand Emperor didn't say anything else. He had already left Penglai.
He knew that things were different now. Mo Rongzhan and Wen Tian had no intention of starting a war. The situation was no longer the same as it was 10,000 years ago.
If Mo Rongzhan could convince the Flame Devil to accept the demon beasts, he would be the eternal god of the human continent.
The human continent only existed because of his permission. He was already being lenient by not making the mortals pay the price for so many years.
Slaying the dragon race, the sacred beasts, and the mortals …
The Grand Emperor's eyes were cold. He wouldn't allow them to appear again.
"Grand Emperor." An immortal servant came to greet him. "Queen Mother of the West has left the nine heavens."
"Yes," the Grand Emperor plainly replied.
Queen Mother of the West was probably going to find the sacred beasts.
