Chapter 76

"That was a very long time ago, so long that I seem to have forgotten it. At that time, the supreme Demon Emperor used the River Map and Hetu Hetu Luoshu to make one last deduction for the future of the Demon Clan before the final battle."

Di Jun! River Map and Hetu Hetu Luoshu!

Su Chen naturally knew these names and those two innate magic treasures.

These were names that existed in ancient myths, but hearing them from Chang Xi's mouth felt very different.

Chang Xi's gaze seemed to pierce through time and space, falling into that scene from endless years ago.

"That deduction exhausted his last bit of mental energy. He saw the decline of the Demon Clan, the destruction of the Witch Clan, and also... a blurred future."

"He told me that in endless years, there would be a 'fated person' who would come to this Lunar Star and take away the last legacy he left behind."

"He said that this person might leave a piece of pure land for the Demon Clan in the future."

Chang Xi said this, changed the subject, and her gaze fell on Su Chen again.

That gaze seemed to want to see through Su Chen completely.

"At that time, I only took it as the nonsense of the Demon Emperor at the moment of his death. After all, even a Saint cannot calculate such a distant future, so how could he do it?"

"But now it seems..."

"He seems to have been right."

"Ah?"

Chang Xi's words made Su Chen completely stunned.

Di Jun actually calculated his arrival before the final battle between the two clans in the Lich Tribulation?

How is this possible!

Did he calculate the original Su Chen? Or did he calculate him, this time-traveler?

Or... did he calculate the "Heavenly Secret Treasure Mirror"?

In Su Chen's mind, various different speculations emerged.

These speculations made him feel a bit creepy; was his existence just an accident, or was someone manipulating all of this?

He felt as if he had been drawn into a huge vortex that spanned the history of the entire Primordial World.

His biggest secret, the golden finger he relied on for survival, seemed to have been calculated by those supreme existences in the ancient or even primordial era.

He had always thought he was very mysterious.

But until today, he was terrified to discover that he might have fallen into the eyes of those supreme existences long ago.

This feeling of fate being controlled by others, everything being in the calculations of others, made Su Chen feel an unprecedented sense of fear.

It made his spine feel cold.

"Now, little Daoist."

Chang Xi's voice sounded again, pulling Su Chen back from his reverie to reality.

Her voice carried a trace of playfulness.

"Are you still going to continue acting with me?"

Su Chen was silent.

He knew there was no need for him to hide anything anymore.

Su Chen raised his head slowly, his face full of bitterness and dejection.

He saluted Chang Xi on the throne again and said: "The Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun's eyes are like torches, Junior naturally dares not hide anything anymore."

"Junior came here this time, indeed for that legacy left by His Majesty Demon Emperor Di Jun."

"True Fire of the Sun!"

After speaking, he closed his mouth and waited for Chang Xi's reply.

Whatever the result was, it depended on how this Lunar Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun thought.

In the great hall, Chang Xi didn't answer immediately, but looked at Su Chen quietly, her eyes complex, not knowing what she was thinking.

In the great hall, it became quiet for a while.

After a while, Chang Xi's cold voice sounded again.

"Since you are the 'fated person' in his prophecy..."

Chang Xi slowly stood up from the throne.

"Then the things he left behind, I naturally won't be stingy."

"True Fire of the Sun, I can give it to you."

"Hoo..."

Su Chen exhaled a long breath.

Although he didn't know what kind of scheme of those great beings he had been drawn into, fortunately, the real benefits in front of him could finally be obtained.

He was not the kind of character who worried about the sky falling; there would be a way when the car reached the mountain.

No matter what happened in the future, at least improving his strength wouldn't be wrong.

He hurriedly saluted Chang Xi, who was walking down from the throne, to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun!"

"Don't thank me, I'm just following the last wish of the Demon Emperor," Chang Xi's tone remained cold.

She walked to Su Chen and scrutinized him.

"Di Jun's last words, I naturally won't violate. He said that this legacy is left for the 'fated person.' Since you are here, it is your opportunity."

"However..."

"I can give you the thing. But, I have one condition."

Su Chen's heart lifted again.

He knew there was no free lunch in the world.

Especially getting benefits from an ancient great god.

He steadied his mind and said respectfully: "Please speak, Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun. As long as it is something Junior can do, I will definitely go through fire and water without hesitation!"

Although his words sounded beautiful, his heart had already started to beat like a drum.

He didn't know what kind of harsh conditions this Demon Empress, who had lived for countless years, would put forward.

Chang Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, and her expression became fierce.

And the words that came out of her mouth made Su Chen feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar.

"My condition is very simple."

A bone-chilling coldness flashed from her body, causing the temperature of the entire great hall to drop significantly.

"The Demon Clan has a traitor."

"Back then, if it weren't for him betraying the Demon Court at the most critical moment, causing the Zhou Tian Star Formation to have a flaw, how could Di Jun and Taiyi have fallen?"

"This blood feud, I have never forgotten for a moment!"

Her voice became full of hatred, and a trace of ferocity appeared on her beautiful face.

"The name of that traitor is Kun Peng!"

"My condition is," Chang Xi stared at Su Chen and said word by word, "in the future, when you have enough ability, help me kill him!"

"Kill Kun Peng?"

"Me?"

After hearing this, Su Chen felt several question marks appear on his head.

How was this different from Jiu Tou Chong asking Ben Bo Er Ba and Ba Bo Er Ben to get rid of Tang Seng and his disciples?

You have to know that the Demon Master Kun Peng was a terrifying existence who occupied the Northern Underworld, was of the same era as the Saints, listened to the Dao in the Purple Heaven Palace, and survived the Dao-Demon, Long-Han, and Lich catastrophes.

One of the top-tier people in the Three Realms!

She actually wanted him to help her kill Kun Peng?

What kind of international joke is this!

That Demon Master Kun Peng was a super great being at the Quasi-Saint level!

Let alone him being just a Human Immortal now, even if he cultivated to Quasi-Saint in the future, facing this kind of innate existence who held innate magic treasures, he would have no chance of winning at all.

Is this Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun crazy?

This is no longer going through fire and water; this is asking him to fly into a fire like a moth, asking him to go to his death!

At this moment, Su Chen felt that the True Fire of the Sun didn't seem so important anymore.

But Su Chen didn't dare to refuse directly; he was afraid that if he said it out loud, Chang Xi in this state would slap him to death.

Su Chen said tactfully: "Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun... you think too highly of Junior. Kun Peng is an innate great being of the same era as you, with vast divine powers and boundless magic power. What virtue or ability does Junior have to dare to be an enemy of such an existence?"

"This condition, Junior, is really..."
