Chapter 286

Su Chen did not stand on ceremony and sat down accordingly.

On the desk was a pot of tea and two cups.

Su Chen noticed that the cups had been prepared long ago.

Bai Ze lifted the pot, poured a cup for Su Chen, and then poured one for himself. Su Chen noticed that when Bai Ze poured the tea, those white pupils never left him.

After pouring the tea, Bai Ze put down the pot and finally spoke.

"I have lived for I don't know how many years, and I consider myself to have seen few things in heaven and earth that I cannot see through."

He picked up his own cup but did not drink.

"You are the first person to stand before me who has made me unable to calculate anything."

He paused and continued: "When I received your jade slip, I thought I had misread it."

He took a light sip and put down the teacup, "I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I would still be able to see that thing."

Bai Ze's voice finally had fluctuations.

"I thought that after the Demon Emperor fell, the origin of the Sun True Fire had already dissipated between heaven and earth. I didn't expect..."

Speaking of this, he stared at Su Chen and asked: "Where did you get it?"

Su Chen did not hide it and said directly: "Taiyin Star."

As the two words were spoken, Bai Ze's body stiffened slightly.

Su Chen continued: "Before Demon Emperor Di Jun fell, he left the last strand of the Sun True Fire origin on Taiyin Star. It was suppressed and sealed by the Taiyin Locking Sun Array set up by the Taiyin Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun, also known as the ancient Taiyin deity Chang Xi."

Bai Ze leaned back slowly against the chair, the light in his white pupils trembling violently.

"The Demon Empress... is she still on Taiyin Star?"

Su Chen nodded slightly.

Bai Ze closed his eyes, and the palace fell into silence.

When he opened his eyes again, those white eyes had returned to calm.

"Before the final battle, His Majesty the Demon Emperor once used the Hetu Luoshu to perform a calculation. He did not tell me the result of that calculation, but he instructed me that once the Demon Court was defeated, I should find a way to leave the battlefield and bring the descendants of the Demon Court here to live in seclusion."

Bai Ze looked at Su Chen and said: "He said that in the future, a fated person would come here and bring hope to the demon clan."

"I didn't expect that I would wait for so long."

"The Taiyin Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun also told me similar words back then." Su Chen sighed again at the power of Demon Emperor Di Jun, who was actually able to calculate his arrival twice.

Upon hearing this, Bai Ze suddenly felt relieved.

"No wonder I couldn't calculate you." Bai Ze picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp, "Even His Majesty the Demon Emperor had to use the Hetu Luoshu to calculate some traces of you; my level of cultivation naturally cannot pry into it."

He set down the teacup, leaned forward, and his white pupils looked directly at Su Chen.

"Su Chen." Bai Ze called his name for the first time.

"You came specifically to find me, it wouldn't just be to let me take a look at the aura of the Sun True Fire."

"Speak, what do you want?"

Su Chen put down the teacup and met Bai Ze's gaze.

"I came to discuss a deal with you, Senior."

Bai Ze poured tea again, waiting for Su Chen's follow-up.

Su Chen did not rush to speak, took a small sip, and then said slowly.

"Does Senior know that Taiyin Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun Chang Xi still hates someone to this day?"

Bai Ze's hand holding the teapot stopped for a moment.

"Kun Peng."

Su Chen nodded: "Back then, in order to obtain the Sun True Fire, Senior Chang Xi made me take a Dao oath that if one day my cultivation was sufficient to contend with Kun Peng, I must kill this beast for her."

Bai Ze put down the teapot, and a trace of killing intent flashed in his white pupils.

"When the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Array was operating back then, Kun Peng betrayed them on the battlefield, causing the array to have a flaw." Bai Ze's voice seemed calm, but it actually contained monstrous hatred, "His Majesties the Demon Emperor and the Eastern Emperor fell because of this."

"I know this matter better than anyone else."

Su Chen put down the teacup and leaned forward slightly.

"But the demon clan in the outside world does not know."

"Nowadays, most of the demon clan in the Three Realms only know about the Lich War, the defeat of the Demon Court, and the fall of the Demon Emperor. As for why the Demon Court was defeated and what role Kun Peng played in it, very few people know."

"Kun Peng occupies the North Sea, and in the name of the Demon Master, he still has extremely high prestige among the demon clan. Many demons even regard him as the only remaining banner of the ancient Demon Court."

Bai Ze's fingers tapped lightly on the stone desk.

Su Chen knew he had hit the point.

"I would like to invite you to come out of the mountains and tell the truth of that year to the demon clan of the world."

"You want to subvert Kun Peng's image among the demon clan." Bai Ze said.

"Correct." Su Chen shook his head, "I want the demon clan of the world to know who is the traitor of the demon clan and who is the sinner of the demon clan. As long as Kun Peng's reputation does not fall, the demon clan cannot truly unite for a single day."

Bai Ze looked at Su Chen, and a sense of scrutiny appeared in those white pupils.

"You are a human, why do you want to worry about this for the demon clan?"

Su Chen picked up the wine bowl and laughed.

"Because I am the advisor of the Demon Alliance."

Bai Ze was slightly startled.

Su Chen told the story of the Demon Alliance in detail, informing Bai Ze about the establishment of the Demon Alliance by the six rising stars of the demon clan: Sun Wukong, Niu Mowang, Jiao Mowang, Shi Tuo Wang, Yu Rong Wang, and Mi Hou Wang.

Afterward, he explained one by one how Sun Wukong was appointed as the leader of the Demon Alliance, the other five as deputy leaders, and himself as the advisor, setting the thirty-six Heavenly Gang Demon Kings, the seventy-two Earthly Fiend Demon Generals, establishing rules, determining rewards and punishments, and restraining the demons.

After listening, Bai Ze nodded slightly; this indeed looked like a formal force.

After listening, he asked Su Chen a question.

"What is the background of that Sun Wukong?"

Su Chen's heart stirred; Bai Ze was indeed worthy of being Bai Ze, asking the key point as soon as he spoke.

It seems that as the protagonist of Journey to the West, Bai Ze had some understanding of him when calculating heavenly secrets.

"Sun Wukong is a naturally born Spirit Bright Stone Monkey with extremely high talent, and he is now at the Great Luo Jinxian cultivation level." Su Chen paused, "He is currently in seclusion, refining the origin of the Liu Er Mihou, who is also one of the four monkeys of the world."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ze's pupils contracted sharply; this was completely different from his calculations.

In his original calculations, Sun Wukong should only have Tai Yi Jin Xian cultivation and should be undergoing tribulation right now.

Looking at all these changes, he looked at Su Chen and closed his eyes, trying to calculate the reason for all the changes, but soon gave up.

Because the heavenly secrets on Su Chen were obscured, everything related to Su Chen could not be calculated.

Bai Ze naturally could not calculate it.

But with Su Chen in front of him, he naturally knew that the root of all changes most likely stemmed from Su Chen.

"I didn't expect that you could actually defy the heavens and change his fate." Bai Ze's eyes looking at Su Chen became increasingly complex, "I know why His Majesty the Demon Emperor regarded you as the last hope of the Demon Court."

Su Chen did not pick up this topic but pulled the conversation back to the right track.

"Senior should be able to see the problems of the Demon Alliance now."

Bai Ze nodded: "The foundation is too shallow, and there are no trump cards to play against the top forces of the Three Realms. The Heavenly Court has the Jade Emperor and the immortals, the Buddhist sect has the Tathagata and the Buddhas, and your Demon Alliance has at most one Great Luo Jinxian and a few Tai Yi Jin Xian, which cannot support the stage."

Su Chen looked at Bai Ze and said: "Senior is right, this is exactly the purpose of my coming to find you."
