Chapter 2101: Master Bodhi!
Who was right or wrong between the demonic race and the witch race no longer mattered to them; what mattered was the tilt of their own inner scales, and how to resettlement Lingshe Island.
Their own homeland must be properly resettled!
Zi Teng the minor demon directed them to move everything, to take out everything they could.
During this time, a barrier set by the Witch Ancestor Zhurong kept them safe from outsiders; only a Pre-Sage stronger than Zhurong could break through.
Their hearts grew somewhat at ease.
Yet now, their resentment toward the demonic race continued to grow; the more they reorganized Lingshe Island, the greater their bitterness toward Guiche and the demonic race became.
……
Dong Huang Taiyi and Di Jun remained unaware; they were still trying to escape Penglai Immortal Island.
Entering Penglai Immortal Island was easy, but leaving it was far more difficult, for before they could depart, they had to pass through these demonic beasts.
The number of these demonic beasts, driven mad by cultivation deviation, kept increasing, trapping them within.
"No, there are too many demonic beasts—they're all mad, they won't obey our commands, and even if we had the Shanhe Shèjì Map, they wouldn't fear it much!"
"What about the Ancient Fragments?"
Dong Huang Taiyi froze, glanced at Di Jun, and Di Jun glanced back; the two exchanged a knowing smile.
If they possessed the Ancient Fragments, they could directly subdue these mad demonic beasts and demons—but they didn't have them; Nuwa did.
Nuwa had once told Dong Huang Taiyi, and Dong Huang Taiyi now sought to use this opportunity to take the Ancient Fragments from her.
The rumor might be true, or it might be false; testing it would reveal the truth.
Because of this, Nuwa sensed Dong Huang Taiyi's intention, and her brow furrowed tightly.
Fu Xi, bearing the Fu Xi Bagua, had been ordered to Penglai Immortal Island to seek the Bodhi Tree, and finding it might prove slightly difficult.
The Bodhi Tree was one of the ten most powerful spiritual roots, second only to the Primordial Green Lotus and the Hollow Willow; among the ten, the Bodhi Tree and Master Bodhi were named together.
Master Bodhi was strong!
The Bodhi roots within the tree were Master Bodhi's most powerful artifact.
Why did the Three Pure Ones say this? Nuwa still didn't understand—was it truly a punishment? If so, it was no trivial matter!
Fu Xi might never return!
Nuwa clenched her fists; she had to restore the demonic race's confidence first. The demonic race had done such things, and as their Saint, Nuwa bore guilt too.
Nuwa could not now set an example; she imposed many restrictions upon the demonic race.
To proceed this way—did they even need to understand? Even if they had explained it back then, it wouldn't have mattered; everything that needed saying had already been said, and there was no need for such a response.
When Nanji Xianweng arrived, both Fu Xi and Nuwa were there; they heard every word clearly.
Precisely because of this, Nanji Xianweng could clearly explain to Master Yuanshi that this matter had little to do with Fu Xi or Nuwa—the problem lay within the demonic court itself.
Within the demonic court, demonic origins were complex; many demonic Sages had especially violent tempers, prone to rage and indiscriminate slaughter, and Nuwa knew of it but could not stop them.
