Bang!
Finally, with a loud explosion, the Kunpeng was smashed into the ground. The huge Kunpeng Celestial Body was bathed in blood. As the black and white Qi slowly dissipated, he finally turned into a human again.
Buzz!
The Void swayed and rippled. Ye Xuan's body, which was like a Chaos Giant, was gradually shrinking until he returned to his original appearance. He was looking down at the Kunpeng on the ground from the Firmament.
Powerful! Very strong, so strong that even Kun Peng felt despair.
At this moment, the Kunpeng felt extremely bitter because he had been at a disadvantage from the beginning to the end. He did not even have the strength to fight back, which made his eyes filled with despair.
Thump — Thump — Thump.
Ye Xuan walked slowly through the air towards the Kun Peng. His expression was emotionless, and his body didn't emit any aura. However, with every step he took, a black lotus would rise from beneath his feet before disappearing into the air.
"Lotus blooms with every step. The Great Tao is within reach. How … how is this possible?"
Looking at the black lotus that disappeared under Ye Xuan's feet, the Kunpeng trembled and growled. He could not believe his eyes and was dumbfounded on the spot.
According to legend, every move of the Sage-to-be not only contained the power of Heaven and Earth, but also showed his Dharma and Tao. When a Sage-to-be could transform into a lotus, it meant that he was very likely to become a Saint in the future.
The Two Saintly Buddhas of the West sat cross-legged, the Three Pure Ones had green lotuses around them, and Goddess Nuwa had obtained the merit of mending the heavens and creating humans. Every move of hers was accompanied by golden lotuses. These were all signs that they had yet to become saints.
The Kunpeng was defeated by Ye Xuan. When he saw the black lotus that disappeared under Ye Xuan's feet, he could not believe his eyes. Was Ye Xuan the Seventh Heaven Destined Saint? And the Essence Blood of the Ancestor Dragon that he got was just a gift for Ye Xuan?
Unwillingness, desperation, and palpitations … All kinds of complicated emotions grew in Kun Peng's heart. A bitter smile emerged from the corners of his mouth. Gradually, he looked at Ye Xuan calmly.
When a person was about to die, he would be indifferent to everything. Although Kunpeng didn't know what kind of person Ye Xuan was, the fact that Ye Xuan could wait for ten thousand years to spy on his secret proved that he was not a kind person. He was also an ambitious and ruthless person.
The Kun Peng knew that Ye Xuan wouldn't let him off. In the end, the only outcome for him was death.
Weng!
The black lotus disappeared under Ye Xuan's feet. Finally, he stood in front of Kun Peng, looking down at Ye Xuan calmly. No one could tell what Ye Xuan was thinking at the moment.
"You are very strong. You are so strong that I feel despair. Even Di Jun is no match for you," said Ye Futian.
Kun Peng said calmly. When he was facing death, he had seen through everything. He even praised Jian Wushuang from the bottom of his heart.
"Do you think I want to kill you?" Suddenly, a gentle smile appeared on Ye Xuan's face. His voice was gentle and easy-going.
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Kun Peng was stunned. He said, "Will you let me go?"
"Fellow Daoist, you're right. I've snatched away your opportunity. Logically speaking, we shouldn't rest until one of us is dead. I should kill you here." Ye Xuan nodded. However, he was smiling all the time. His eyes became more profound as he looked at Kun Peng.
"Then what are you waiting for?"
Kun Peng was not stupid. Before Ye Xuan took action, he had already vaguely known what Ye Xuan was thinking. This made him look at Ye Xuan with a complicated expression.
"I presume that fellow daoist has already guessed that I would like to invite fellow daoist to join the Heavenly Court and grant fellow daoist the position of Demon Master. It's no different from fellow daoist's position in the Ancient Demon Court." Ye Xuan spoke tirelessly, his words extremely sincere.
It was obvious that Ye Xuan had never thought of killing the Kun Peng. This was because the Kun Peng was extremely useful to him, and it was also a great weapon against the Ancient Demon Court.
Kun Peng was the Master of All Demons. Although he was defeated by Ye Xuan, it seemed that he could not withstand a single blow. That was because Ye Xuan had stepped into the Sage-to-be. He was a Sage-to-be who proved his Dao through strength. That was why Kun Peng looked so weak.
However, Kun Peng was definitely a terrifying figure among the Sage-to-be. If he could join the Celestial Court, it would be of great help to Ye Xuan.
This was only one of the reasons. The real reason was Kun Peng's identity.
Master of All Demons!
These four simple words fully explained Kun Peng's position in the Demon Clan.
The Ancient Demon Court had reappeared. Nüwa's decree was about to be announced to the Three Realms. At that time, billions of Demon Clans in the Three Realms would be under the Ancient Demon Court. This was already an extremely terrifying force.
Saint Nüwa, the two Demon Emperors, and the Master of All Demons were the four most respected figures in the Demon Clan.
If Kun Peng, the Master of All Demons, could join the Celestial Court, it would be a heavy blow to the Ancient Demon Court. An irreparable loophole would appear in the Ancient Demon Court. It would make billions of Demon Clans wonder why Kun Peng, the Master of All Demons, would betray the Ancient Demon Court.
This was Ye Xuan's chess piece. This was also his real intention of looking for Kun Peng. However, he did not expect that he would seize Kun Peng's opportunity here and directly step into the Sage-to-be.
"Impossible!"
Suddenly, Kun Peng sternly refused without any hesitation.
"Fellow Taoist, are you forcing me to kill you?" Ye Xuan frowned, and his voice gradually turned cold.
"Ye Xuan, you took my opportunity first. You and I are mortal enemies. Moreover, I am the Master of All Demons. If I really join your Celestial Court, how can I stand in the Demon Clan? How can I face the two Demon Emperors? Won't I be ridiculed by the creatures in the Three Realms?"
Kun Peng sneered. Although he did not want to die, his dignity would not allow him to submit to Ye Xuan. He could not accept this at all.
Hearing Kun Peng's words, Ye Xuan nodded. Just as Kun Peng said, if he really joined the Celestial Court and became Ye Xuan's subject, billions of Demon Clans would certainly be disgraced, although they would be puzzled. This was also the reason why Kun Peng sternly refused.
Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes and became silent. After a full ten breaths, he was no longer gloomy and a smile appeared on his face again.
"Fellow Taoist, let me ask you a question. If you are still unwilling to join the Celestial Court after answering, I will leave with you. I will not make things difficult for you."
"Hmm?"
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Kun Peng was stunned. He looked at Ye Xuan with a complicated expression and then asked tentatively, "Are you serious?"
"I am a man of my word. How can I be a man of my word?" Ye Xuan said with a smile.
"Well, what do you want to ask?" Kun Peng said seriously.
"I want to ask you, fellow Taoist. In the Great Calamity of the Wu Tribe, both the Wu Tribe and the Ancient Demon Court suffered great losses. Now that the Ancient Demon Court has reappeared, do you think Donghuang Taiyi and Emperor Jun can lead billions of Demon Clans to destroy the Wu Tribe?" Ye Xuan asked calmly.
