Chapter 2165

"Not going well."

Though Jiufeng said it wasn't going well, he knew the human race must have been shaken, for the demon race had been too cruel to them—unless things changed, the humans might be wiped out.

Qiangliang had also learned of this matter, but now Xingtian had already swapped back with Xiangliu; when the time came, Xingtian could also go to see the Yan and Huang Emperors.

Although the Yan and Huang Emperors were leaders of the human race, their strength was not particularly great, but Xingtian could still persuade them.

"When Xingtian arrives, go with him."

"Alright, I've no problem."

After all, there was nothing to do here anyway; the demon race hadn't caused trouble lately, and though the Guiche incident was major, it wouldn't change anything for him.

One could say Guiche's situation had changed them, but nothing could be done about it now.

Don't the demon race know about Guiche's matter?

The demon race certainly knows!

Every single demon had witnessed Guiche receive three hundred Bone-Stripping Whips.

After those three hundred Bone-Stripping Whips, Guiche was barely alive.

Jimeng and Feilian watched, thinking if those whips had struck them, they wouldn't have survived either—it was only because Guiche was strong and sturdy that he held on.

Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun looked on, satisfied as they saw the terrified expressions of the demon sages below, along with the various lesser and greater demons.

If Guiche hadn't gone too far, Donghuang Taiyi wouldn't have imposed such a harsh punishment—but Guiche's actions had truly enraged Donghuang Taiyi beyond measure.

"If anyone dares commit this again, you'll be taken to the Execution Platform like Guiche!"

"Three hundred Bone-Stripping Whips are the minimum!"

After Donghuang Taiyi spoke, every demon below bowed their heads, silent.

Better to say nothing—words only invite mistakes; they stared at their toes, for all held deep reverence for Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun—they were their demon emperors, after all.

Feidan said: "My lord, we solemnly remember your command and recall, and will never again commit such acts—Guiche must have learned his lesson."

Jimeng quickly rose and knelt.

"Yes, my lord, we will absolutely do nothing to betray the demon race again, and will take responsibility for the Demon Court!"

"My lord, regarding Guiche's matter—would you consider letting it go?"

After scanning the crowd below, Di Jun nodded.

"Take him back and care for him well."

With that, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi departed; the words they spoke to the demon race might have been unclear to others, but the demon sages certainly understood they were meant for them.

Kunpeng watched from the side, his heart turning cold—he had entered the den of thieves.

Though Kunpeng knew Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun could not punish him directly, if they kept subjecting him to such penalties, he doubted he could endure them as Guiche had.

Kunpeng only wanted to leave the demon race as soon as possible.

But after leaving the demon race, where could he go? He had offended the Wu Clan!

At this moment, Kunpeng truly regretted it—the faint resentment he'd felt in the Purple Cloud Palace had somehow reached this day.

If time could reverse, Kunpeng would never again hold a grudge against Hongyun.
