Wow!
The moment Ye Xuan's words landed, not only was the Heavenly Roc King speechless, all the other Demon Kings looked at each other in shock. None of them had expected the Heavenly Roc King to be Kong Xuan's son.
Who was Kong Xuan?
When the Heavens and Earth were created, Kong Xuan was the son of the Phoenix and the first peacock in the world. His accompanying mystic skill was the Five Colored Godly Light. He was also the disciple of Saint Zhunti of the West and was an unparalleled existence in the Three Realms.
He was also the Mahamayuri of Spirit Mountain of the West. He was an existence on par with Duobao Rulai.
Most of the Demon Kings knew about the background of the Purple Dragon King. It wasn't surprising that Ye Xuan knew about it. However, the background of this Heavenly Roc King had always been a mystery. Now that Ye Xuan had revealed it, all the other Demon Kings were shocked.
"How … how did you know …?" The Heavenly Roc King's face was flushed red. Even his voice was trembling. Clearly, he was shocked that Ye Xuan had revealed his background.
However, Ye Xuan did not reply to the Heavenly Roc King's question. He looked at all the Demon Kings present and started talking about them.
"Devil Snake King, the spirit beast of Old Mother Yin Mountain …"
"Lion Elephant King, the guardian spirit beast of Purple Bamboo Forest …"
…
As Ye Xuan revealed the background of each and every Demon King, the entire Water Curtain Cave fell silent. However, a violent killing intent was coiling around each of the Demon Kings. The way they looked at Ye Xuan was even colder than before.
Apart from Bai Hong, who was a native of Mount Huaguo, the other monster kings of the seventy-two caves all had a past that they could not bear to look back on. They had gathered here to claim the mountain as their kings, or rather, they wanted to cut ties with their past.
Some of them had killed countless people and entered Huaguo Mountain to protect themselves. Some of them were spirit beasts of great immortals who had betrayed them for some reason.
There were also those who violated the heavenly laws and were hunted down by the Celestial Court. They could only enter the Flowerfruit Mountain to seek protection. There were also those with terrifying origins like the Heavenly Peng King who were ashamed of their origins and only wanted to be free and unfettered.
However, without exception, none of the Demon Kings were willing to let others know of their past. Coincidentally, Ye Xuan had violated their taboo, causing the Demon Kings of the 72 Caves to be filled with killing intent. They wanted to keep Ye Xuan in Huaguo Mountain.
"Ye Xuan, I don't know how you learned of these secrets, but you should know that you will definitely die today."
With the Heavenly Roc King taking the lead, the Amethyst Dragon King followed closely behind. The various Demon Kings faintly surrounded Ye Xuan in the center. That terrifying demonic light pervaded out, causing the Water Curtain Cave to tremble even more violently.
At this time, even Bai Hong did not stop them. He looked at Ye Xuan with extreme fear in his eyes.
Bai Hong was not afraid of Ye Xuan's cultivation, but his scheming. Ye Xuan's scheming was too terrifying. He had investigated every Monster King thoroughly, which also showed that Ye Xuan knew the weaknesses of every Monster King.
If this person was allowed to leave and spread these secrets to the outside world, it would cause an unimaginable disaster to Mount Huaguo.
"Hahaha!"
Ye Xuan slowly stood up with a smile on his face. However, his smile was strange and unpredictable. He looked around at the Monster Kings of the Seventy-two Caves and said calmly, "I don't know if you have heard of this saying, 'Don't take on porcelain work if you don't have a diamond'. Although my cultivation is only in the realm of Taiyi, I'm not someone who can be killed at will."
"Buzz!"
Ye Xuan's smile disappeared. When he waved his hand, the Sky-shaking Divine Bow suddenly appeared in his hand. The terrifying witchcraft light spread out, and the distorted void collapsed inch by inch. An unimaginable murderous aura spread out around Ye Xuan.
"Arrow!"
The two simple words made people's eardrums buzz, and a chill rose in their hearts. Ye Xuan pulled the bowstring, and the Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow quietly appeared in his hand. When the bow and arrow in Ye Xuan's hand released an unimaginable power, the Seventy-two Monster Kings' expressions changed greatly.
"Sky-shaking Divine Bow and Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow?"
Bai Hong suddenly stood up, and his breath stopped at this moment. He looked at the bow and arrow with an extremely sinister look in his eyes. His body was surrounded by a terrifying golden light, which showed how turbulent his mind was.
The bow and arrow shocked the Three Realms. In the distant past, the Great Ancient Sorcerer Yi shot down the nine Golden Crows with a bow and arrow. Even though countless years had passed, this legend had been passed down in the Three Realms for a long time.
Ye Xuan had always been walking on thin ice on the road to the Nine Heavens. He would never put himself in danger.
Ye Xuan knew better than anyone how terrifying the Seventy-two Monster Kings of the Seventy-two Caves were. If he didn't have some trump cards, he wouldn't have dared to face them alone.
The bow and arrow were one of his trump cards. It should be known that with his cultivation of Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, he could only shoot two arrows. After that, he would be weakened.
However, these two arrows could take the lives of several Monster Kings. If he only shot one arrow with all his strength, perhaps even Bai Hong, an All-Heaven Golden Immortal, would be in danger.
None of the Monster Kings present were stupid. Even if they hadn't seen the bow and arrow, they had heard of the legend of Yi shooting the Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow. When they felt the power of the bow and arrow, their anger calmed down.
"Good, good, good. The East Emperor is indeed unpredictable. I've learned a lot."
Bai Hong sneered. Then he looked at the Monster Kings and said, "Brothers, you may leave."
As Bai Hong's words fell, the Monster Kings withdrew their auras. However, they still looked at Ye Xuan with murderous eyes. Obviously, Ye Xuan was on their must-kill list.
The bow and arrow disappeared. Ye Xuan regained his composure. Bai Hong sat down again. However, there was a strange look in his eyes when he looked at Ye Xuan. He said, "Fellow Daoist, I don't believe that you came here just to reveal our origins. What is your purpose?"
As the saying goes, straightforward people don't resort to insinuations. Bai Hong was also a smart person. He went straight to the point and didn't want to feign civility with Ye Xuan.
"Good!"
Ye Xuan nodded slowly. He didn't waste any more words and went straight to the point.
"I'm sure you all already know that I've come here on the Jade Emperor's orders to conquer Mount Huaguo. However, I'm not a person who enjoys bloodshed. I hope to turn hostility into friendship and have you all submit to me," Ye Xuan said frankly.
Silence. Silence. A deathly silence.
As Ye Xuan revealed his goal, the entire cave became deathly silent. However, the gazes of the Demon Kings towards Ye Xuan were filled with astonishment.
After a dozen seconds, the Amethyst Dragon King laughed maniacally as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Ye Xuan, are you crazy, or are we crazy?" The Amethyst Dragon King laughed maniacally.
"Let's not talk about you being the East Emperor of the Celestial Court. Even if the Jade Emperor himself came, how could he make us submit?" The Heavenly Peng King sneered in agreement.
