Chapter 537

~6 min read 1,065 words

However, at this moment, the powerhouses of major sects like the Luoxia Sect, Qingyun Sect, and Huangji Sect came by appointment.

"Master, Yang Xian of the Luoxia Sect wants to see you; it looks like he has come with ill intentions."

Zhao Zhengping stepped forward and said; hearing this, Hong Zun curled his lip.

"Let them come; let them wait in the front hall."

It didn't seem very surprising; waiting until the matter of the ingredients was handled, Hong Zun and the others came to the front hall.

At this time, Yang Xian and the others, who had been waiting here for a long time, saw Hong Zun, and their faces didn't look too good, especially Yang Xian, who spoke with sarcasm.

"Truly a busy person; what's up, now if one wants to see someone from your Dao Yi Sect, do they have to make an appointment in advance?"

Ever since Su Luoxing suffered a great loss at the Northern Border City last time, the relationship between the Luoxia Sect and the Dao Yi Sect had become increasingly bad; the two sides were almost at the point of tearing off their masks.

And this Yang Xian, as the Great Elder of the Luoxia Sect, naturally had no good feelings toward the Dao Yi Sect.

However, hearing this, Hong Zun didn't care; after taking his seat, he spoke directly.

"If you have something to say, say it; it's so late, you wouldn't be here for idle chatter, right?"

"I heard you caught the Black Tiger Demon King of Huling?"

The powerhouse of the Qingyun Sect spoke first; hearing this, Hong Zun didn't hide it and nodded in acknowledgment quite simply.

"That's right."

One could think with their toes that it must be the Demon King of Huling who contacted them; as for the purpose, it was simple, nothing more than releasing the Black Tiger Demon King or something similar.

And now it depended on the thoughts of Yang Xian and the others.

Hong Zun's simplicity was beyond everyone's expectations; pondering for a moment, Yang Xian said in a deep voice.

"Hong Zun, do you know what period this is? At such a time, you still caught the Demon King of Huling; Huling has already contacted us; if you don't release the Black Tiger Demon King, they will start a war with us; why don't you release it quickly?"

Release it?

Hearing this, Hong Zun frowned and glanced at Yang Xian lightly.

Facing Hong Zun's gaze, Yang Xian didn't flinch at all, meeting his eyes; this time, their major sects had discussed it well.

At this time, it wasn't suitable to continue starting a war with the Tiger Clan, so he hurriedly brought people over.

This time, everyone was on his side, just right to dampen the prestige of the Dao Yi Sect.

The Luoxia Sect clearly wouldn't give up any opportunity to make things difficult for the Dao Yi Sect.

Only, before Yang Xian could continue speaking, Hong Zun smiled contemptuously.

"Start a war? You let them come and try."

"You.......... Hong Zun, do you know the consequences..............."

"Bullshit consequences; I think you, Yang Xian, are truly living backward; I finally caught the Black Tiger Demon King, and now you want me to release it? Did you drink too much fake wine, or was your brain caught in the door?"

He had thought he was forcing Hong Zun to submit, but who would have thought that he would be scolded by Hong Zun as soon as he started.

Regarding this, Yang Xian was so angry that his beard and eyes were blowing.

"Hong Zun, this matter is of great importance; the Black Tiger Demon King must be released, otherwise there is no way to explain it to Huling; I absolutely will not allow you to act recklessly."

The words were spoken with great righteousness, but Hong Zun directly laughed.

"Listen to them, listen to what this guy is saying yourself."

"What did I say?"

"What did you say? You are the Great Elder of the Luoxia Sect, Yang Xian, right?"

"Asking the obvious."

"Then I'm curious; as the Great Elder of the Luoxia Sect, what the hell do you have to explain to Huling? You made it sound like I thought you were the Demon King of Huling."

For a human Saint to go and explain to Huling was simply the biggest joke in the world.

Hearing this, Yang Xian's face sank, and he was planning to speak, but Hong Zun didn't give him this opportunity.

"I just don't understand, we humans caught a Demon King, why should we care about the meaning of the demon race?"

"For so many years, have there been few human Saints caught by the demon race? My Dao Yi Sect, Luoxia Sect, Qingyun Sect, Huangji Sect, and you all, whose family hasn't had people caught by the demon race?"

"Have you ever seen the demon race release people? At that time, why didn't the demon race think about giving us an explanation?"

"Now I just caught a Demon King of Huling; what's up, as soon as Huling contacts you, you want to force me to release people?"

A group of dogs, actually uniting to force him to release people, Hong Zun said in annoyance.

And hearing this, everyone fell into silence; Yang Xian gritted his teeth and said coldly.

"You are sophistry; the current situation is different from before; we are doing this to avoid another battle and reduce unnecessary losses."

"Unnecessary losses? It's simply a joke; those who are not of my race must have different hearts; peace is fought for; what, if I hand over the Black Tiger Demon King, will Huling guarantee not to be an enemy of my human race? Will it guarantee not to harm one more person of my human race?"

"The hatred between the two races has nothing to do with a Demon King; that is accumulated over generations; whether I hand over the Black Tiger Demon King or not, the demon race will always be the great enemy of my human race."

"Since you like speaking for the demon race so much, I think you might as well just go to Huling and be a Demon King, and don't be a Great Elder."

Just as he was speaking, Yang Xian's projection array disk suddenly flashed with a light; someone was contacting him.
