Chapter 2259: The Pain of Skin-Scraping and Bone-Removal!

Zhao Gongming had already been cornered by them, but the news about Changsheng Emperor was not spread by him, and he had no guilt in his heart.

If they continued acting this way, this matter would not change.

Zhao Gongming said: "I don't understand why you, Daoist Randeng, would do this—you didn't have to, and…"

Daoist Randeng cut him off directly.

The reason they wanted to form their own faction was precisely this: even if the Wu Clan, the Yao Clan, and the Human Race truly emerged, they could still become the Ancient Demon Clan.

And in this Honghuang, the Ancient Demon Clan could rival the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts.

"You may not know, but the emergence of the Ancient Demon Clan will bring wave after wave of chaos to Honghuang!"

Zhao Gongming was stunned.

He knew well of the wars between the Ancient Demon Gods—even during the time of Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun, they had no right to participate.

Daoist Randeng said they wanted to form their own faction—was that the Ancient Demon Clan?

"…"

Zhao Gongming remained silent; Daoist Randeng wasn't worried, because he only wanted to stop Zhao Gongming from leaking information, not to kill him.

As long as the Three Pure Ones and Taishang Laojun remained in the dark, the matter wouldn't be discovered so easily, and they would have ample time to prepare.

"Then it's a good thing!"

"Correct. This matter is indeed a good thing for them."

Zhu Yan sneered.

Ying Long's wounds hadn't healed yet, but they had already released Bai Ze and Tianzhu Xuanwu—they couldn't go back on their word, and such a golden opportunity slipped away.

Zhu Yan saw certain things clearly, but he would wait for Taotie's return to ask.

Jin Wu said: "Why not try to turn them? Why not recruit them? Could it be…"

"Do you think the Wu Clan and Yao Clan can be manipulated by us? We are merely the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts, exiled beyond Honghuang, suppressed for a thousand years!"

Qiong Qi glared fiercely ahead—he truly believed the people of Honghuang were ungrateful.

If he were let out, he would slaughter every soul in Honghuang!

Zhu Yan glanced at Qiong Qi's eyes and understood his meaning, but there was no choice—Qiong Qi's power was the strongest, and Zhu Yan needed his strength.

Hun Dun had arrived.

Jin Wu and Ying Long couldn't argue with Teng She now—they couldn't win.

Arguing wouldn't solve anything; they had to find a way to act.

"Once the Demon-Sealing Array binds us, it's hard to escape—we must find a way to remove it. Only by removing the Demon-Sealing Array can we move freely."

"Who doesn't know that?"

"But what method do you have to remove it?"

Zhu Yan had already thought of a method—it just depended on whether someone could break in.

After Bai Ze and the others broke in, this method became the only one Zhu Yan's group could execute, so now they were considering many possibilities.

Hun Dun asked: "Do we need to use their blood?"

"Yes!"

"You stayed behind?"

"You guessed right—I kept their blood, but it will be extremely troublesome and excruciatingly painful—I don't know if you can endure it."

Zhu Yan had warned them beforehand—he laid out his method directly to see who could accept it; those who couldn't, he wouldn't persuade.

Taotie and Qiong Qi stepped forward first—they were determined to try it.
