Chapter 1866: The Reason Luo Fu Has a Karmic Connection with the Witch Clan
Luo Fu didn't care about these two demon sages; to him, their strength was like that of an ant—he could crush it without effort.
But Luo Fu did give them a choice.
"Want to leave?"
After thinking it over, Di Jun and Tai Yi immediately nodded.
Even the slimmest chance to escape, they had to seize—so long as the green mountains remain, there's always hope, even if no firewood is left.
The demon and witch clans now hold the two dominant powers in Honghuang; the demon-witch war is about to begin, and these two absolutely cannot perish inside the Fire Cloud Cave.
Di Jiang frowned deeply.
He had originally come here with Zhu Jiuyin and Ru Shou, intending to rescue Hong Yun, but upon arriving, he discovered the demon clan's barrier was unexpectedly strong.
Even the combined power of their five Ancestral Witches failed to break the barrier—only a slight crack formed.
That's why they contacted Sister Houtu and Sister Xuanming, asking them to summon Luo Fu.
Luo Fu had said he wouldn't act lightly; they had kept him in the Pangu Hall precisely because they foresaw this moment—but if Luo Fu refused to act, rescuing Hong Yun would be as impossible as climbing to heaven.
This matter required Luo Fu to demand one thing from the witch clan; Di Jiang agreed, and only then did Luo Fu act.
During the demon-witch war, Luo Fu would refrain from intervening unless absolutely necessary—he didn't wish to disrupt the great battle—but if any of the Twelve Ancestral Witches were in mortal danger, he would act according to fate.
This was why Luo Fu felt a karmic connection with the witch clan.
Previously, when he fought the world consciousness in the Cthulhu realm, he had used avatar projections to utterly overwhelm it.
Now, with his true body here, confronting the world consciousness, time projections made no difference.
Even anchoring himself within the River of Time might not help, which was why Luo Fu set this rule.
The Multiverse Chat Group also thought Luo Fu's self-imposed rule was wise—it would otherwise disrupt the entire Honghuang.
This time, Luo Fu acted solely to make the witch clan agree to this condition.
Only then could Sister Xuanming and Sister Houtu persuade Luo Fu to come; when they arrived, the two finally regained their composure.
"Little sister, do you think Lord Luo is a true god?" Sister Houtu asked Sister Xuanming, belatedly realizing the question.
"How would I know? Big brother and second brother should know."
She could only answer vaguely; though Sister Xuanming was the youngest among them, his intellect was often extraordinary, and many Ancestral Witches sought his counsel.
Thus, many routinely turned to Sister Xuanming for advice.
Sister Houtu did too—and their battle beasts had fully recovered, thanks entirely to Luo Fu's efforts.
After Luo Fu arrived at the Fire Cloud Cave, he merely touched the barrier—it shattered like powdered sugar before their eyes; everyone present was stunned.
Even more shocked were Di Jiang and Zhu Jiuyin and the other Ancestral Witches.
They had pooled the strength of five Ancestral Witches and still failed to break the barrier; Luo Fu shattered it with a single touch—this was absolute, overwhelming power.
Di Jiang felt excitement, yet a faint unease stirred within him.
He didn't know whether Luo Fu's arrival among the witches was right or wrong—he would wait and see.
Through Sister Houtu and Sister Xuanming's descriptions, Di Jiang and Zhu Jiuyin learned of the feud between Hong Yun and Kun Peng.
The major Ancestral Witches all regarded Kun Peng as petty; now, they saw Di Jun and Tai Yi as the same—demons, all of them, petty souls.
