Chapter 182: Bai Ze's Betrayal

Elder Sister, what should we do now? It seems there's no opportunity at all.

The Three Immortal Maidens jointly wielded the Golden Dragon Shears; they encountered little hindrance in this Zhou Tian Star Dipper Grand Formation, yet, despite their single-minded search for opportunity, they gained nothing.

Elder Sister, could we have guessed wrong?

Qiongxiao Xianzi, losing a bit of patience, said: 'Could it be that there really is no opportunity this time?'

Impossible!

Bixiao Xianzi shook her head and said: 'Second Sister, I suspect that the opportunity that person seeks is right within this formation.'

Hearing this, Yunxiao Xianzi glanced at her younger sister in surprise, then asked: 'Little Sister, why do you say that?'

Elder Sister, I have seen the true Zhou Tian Star Dipper Grand Formation before; its power is absolutely incomparable to this formation, so there must definitely be something wrong with this formation!

As Bixiao Xianzi spoke, the scene of her once being trapped by Ao Yifan's Zhou Tian Star Dipper Grand Formation surfaced in her mind.

Therefore, she could be certain that this formation is problematic.

The true Zhou Tian Star Dipper Grand Formation?

Yunxiao Xianzi and Qiongxiao Xianzi both turned their gaze to their younger sister; it was obvious they were still unaware of this matter.

Elder Sister, should we continue?

Qiongxiao Xianzi asked.

Continue!

Yunxiao Xianzi said with a firm expression: 'At best, if we can find that person, I suspect the ultimate opportunity still lies with that person!'

It was clear that Yunxiao Xianzi had already determined that the opportunity they sought was with Ao Yifan.

……

Ignoring the Chan Teaching disciples trapped in a superficial formation, meanwhile, in another fragment of alien starry space, the myriad demons were shouting curses.

Damn it, Bai Ze, you actually dare to betray the Monster Court!

On each and every star, great demons were bound in chains.

These great demons, following Bai Ze's arrangements, took command of their respective stellar positions.

However, what the demons didn't expect was that this so-called Zhou Tian Star Dipper Grand Formation was actually a trap set for them.

As soon as these great demons landed on their respective stars, they triggered the seals upon them.

These seals were immensely powerful; they not only locked the demons' mana, but also imprisoned their souls.

Although those few powerful demon commanders continued to struggle, the rest of the demons were already pressed immobile by the stellar power.

Betrayal?

Bai Ze said softly: 'Don't you see that the era of the Monster Court has already passed? To continue following this fallen Monster Court, clinging to the false glory that no longer belongs to the demon race—are you truly willing?'

Upon these words, many demons who had been shouting curses instantly fell into a somewhat silent state.

Although no one had ever raised it, for many years the Monster Court could only hold onto this bitterly cold land of the North Sea.

Several such campaigns were also swiftly crushed by the human race of the Three Teachings.

Repeated failures had long planted seeds of doubt in the hearts of many demons.

Now, the truth exposed by Bai Ze caused even that faint hope in many demons' hearts to instantly extinguish.

The Monster Court has already fallen!

The glory belonging to the demon race has long since vanished forever!

Bai Ze, you betrayed us—what exactly are you doing it for?

Ji Meng said coldly.

Naturally, it is to find a way out for our demon race!

Bai Ze said: 'I have already contacted the immortals of the Heavenly Court; the Heavenly Court agreed to accept us, and this time, any demon who follows me to the Heavenly Court will receive an ennoblement.'

What? The immortals of the Heavenly Court!

In an instant, the demons' faces changed again.

After all, the ancient Monster Court collapsed back then, although it was the Wu Tribe that struck the blow.

However, the Heavenly Court's immortals have occupied the old site of the Monster Court, which is also a great humiliation for the remnants of the Monster Court, a hereditary enmity.

Now, Bai Ze actually prepares to lead everyone in surrendering to the Heavenly Court, yet deep down many demons are unwilling to agree.

Um, Bai Ze, I want to ask: is the Heavenly Court's promise reliable?

Just then, a somewhat abrupt voice sounded.

Hearing it, the demons looked toward the source of the sound and suddenly discovered that the speaker was none other than Fei Tu, one of the Ten Great Demon Commanders.

Fei Tu, what are you trying to do?

Zi Tie roared angrily.

Originally, the other demon commanders were already dissatisfied with this guy; now, hearing his odd tone, it seemed he was swayed by the Heavenly Court's amnesty, his heart stirred!

Indeed, reviving Fei Tu was the right call—given his personality, he is indeed prone to shaking morale!

Watching the speaking Fei Tu, Bai Ze curled the corner of his mouth into a smile.

The next moment, all that was heard was Bai Ze saying: 'Du E Zhenren, please come out and meet!'

Following Bai Ze's words, a figure emerged from the void—none other than Du E Zhenren, the incarnation of Venus!

Bai Ze fellow Daoist, what do you summon me for? Has the matter been settled?

Du E Zhenren asked.

Hearing this, Bai Ze shook his head and said: 'True Person, these demon comrades of mine now have doubts about the Monster Court's amnesty terms; please, True Person, help explain them.'

Like that, then—sure!

Du E Zhenren flicked his whisk, and in the next instant his form shifted, returning once more to that of an old man.

Fellow demon Daoists, I am the humble Venus of the Heavenly Court—greetings!

Tai Bai Jin Xing said.

"It's actually the Heavenly Court's Tai Bai Jin Xing!"

Even the demons of the Demon Court have heard of Tai Bai Jin Xing's name.

This great immortal is practically the absolute confidant of Haotian Shangdi.

"Tai Bai Jin Xing, tell me, what benefits would I get if I surrendered to the Heavenly Court?"

Fei Tan spoke up and asked.

"You..."

Tai Bai Jin Xing pondered, preparing to answer.

However, before Tai Bai Jin Xing could speak, suddenly, terrifying stellar power erupted from the bonds wrapped around Fei Tan.

In the next moment, accompanied by Fei Tan's miserable scream, its huge body was crushed by the stellar power into a mass of blood mist.

"Bai Ze, how dare you?"

This sudden scene left the demons both shocked and furious.

Although among the Ten Great Demon Marshals, many demons took a dislike to Fei Tan, Ci Tie even declared he would swallow this guy.

However, under these circumstances, we're all grasshoppers on the same rope; Bai Ze suddenly launched a killing strike at Fei Tan, leaving the remaining demons inevitably feeling the sorrow of a rabbit's death, fox's grief.

"Friend Bai Ze, what— alas!"

Tai Bai Jin Xing also stared blankly, then looked at Bai Ze and couldn't help but sigh.

After all, it was hard enough to find a soft-boned weak point as a breakthrough; how could Bai Ze suddenly launch a killing strike at him?

But before Bai Ze could speak, a terrifying stellar power suddenly descended from the heavens.

In the next moment, Tai Bai Jin Xing's body shuddered violently, the old man's form instantly shattered, revealing the middle-aged appearance of Du E Zhen Ren.

"Bai Ze, you..."

Tai Bai Jin Xing never expected Bai Ze to suddenly attack him.

However, before his words could finish, another terrifying stellar power fell down.

Immediately thereafter, Du E Zhen Ren's form shattered.

Thus, the demons saw Tai Bai Jin Xing's avatar continually shatter, and finally, a white-clad maiden's figure remained.
