Chapter 2565: Issue a Kill Order Against Kunpeng!

Feidan curled his lips—he never expected his subordinates to have so much faith in him; were all demons this overconfident?

But he couldn't erase their words; he had to go along with the current.

Feidan raised his hand and glanced at Guiche; Guiche had sent out his two most capable men specifically to intercept Hongyun and Jin Ling Shengmu—all for his own sake.

"Then do as we previously agreed—absolutely keep them from escaping!"

"But on the side of Bombarding Lingshan, we have no allies; this could put the Ten Demon Sages in danger, and we're already being watched—we can't move freely."

Guiche lifted his head; he knew this matter was tied to them in some way, but it also brought danger.

From the start, he'd felt the Witch Clan couldn't be spared—and even if they stayed among the demons, they'd face grave peril; now, Guiche knew exactly what he must do.

He couldn't keep either the Witch Clan or the Demon Clan; staying among the demons now was merely a temporary expedient.

"We can form our own sect!"

"Ancestor Minghe also said to form our own sect, but after all this time, even Ancestor Minghe hasn't passed Luo Fu's test—do you think we can?"

Feidan had self-awareness; he knew what he could and couldn't do.

While Guiche hadn't yet realized any of this, Feidan had already seen it clearly—he would never leave the Demon Clan; only by hiding within it could he find a foothold.

As long as he hid within the Demon Clan, they'd have protection beyond its borders.

Guiche: "Are you saying we must rely on the Demon Clan's protection just to survive?"

"Can you survive alone? Look at what's happened to Kunpeng—you should know your own fate. Kunpeng is now being hunted by the Demon Clan!"

At this, Feidan again felt Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun were utterly heartless.

Kunpeng had served them for a long time—especially as the Demon Clan's Dao Master—everything, including all of Bombarding Lingshan's strategies, had been his planning.

Yet they turned their backs on him at once. Kunpeng didn't wish to stay among the demons; a wise bird chooses its tree to perch on—that's perfectly natural.

But their Demon Emperor had issued a kill order, leaving Kunpeng in unbearable torment.

Thinking of himself and others, would they themselves be hunted down like this by Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun if they tried to leave the Demon Clan?

As this thought struck him, Feidan shivered—he knew once certain things began, there was no turning back; neither Guiche nor he could turn back.

"We can't turn back!"

"If you want to form your own sect, then leave on your own—I won't cooperate with you anymore. But if you want to find your own way, you still can."

"I'll follow your lead."

Guiche thought for a moment and understood the gravity of this matter—he should know it well, and most others knew it too; there was nothing particularly special about it.

But because of Guiche's past actions on Ling She Island, others—especially the beings of Honghuang—had deemed him untrustworthy.

Guiche brought it upon himself; Feidan would never be dragged down by it, nor bound by it—he had many things to do, and grand ambitions of his own.

No matter who came, Feidan would never let them block him.
