Chapter 2781

~3 min read 598 words

The Chaos Eight Trigrams Tower was originally a magic treasure of the demon race, but for a thousand years the demon race lost it and have been searching for it ever since, yet they found nothing despite long years of searching.

Previously, when Luo Fu and the Wu tribe entered Penglai Immortal Island, Dong Huang Taiyi and Di Jun also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to search for it.

But after searching for a long time, the two nearly got killed by a demonic beast that had gone berserk, and still found no trace of the Chaos Eight Trigrams Tower.

Di Jun had almost given up, when suddenly the Chaos Eight Trigrams Tower appeared.

"Fine!"

"No matter what, we must reclaim the Chaos Eight Trigrams Tower and never let it fall into others' hands!"

"Only the demon race can possess what belongs to the demon race; no other being, not a single living creature, can ever take it—rest assured," said Di Jun.

Dong Huang Taiyi was certainly not reassured.

It wasn't that he didn't understand—it was that Dong Huang Taiyi now had a gut feeling that the Wu tribe was behind this.

The Twelve Ancestral Wus' unity was no good thing, for compared to the Ten Great Demon Saints, they were utterly disunited and might even turn on each other midway.

This was what troubled Dong Huang Taiyi greatly.

"Big brother, if you don't train the Ten Great Demon Saints soon, they won't listen to reason, and the Guiche incident will keep happening—we must rein them in."

How could Di Jun not know this?

But he couldn't simply force the Ten Great Demon Saints into line, for each had his own agenda.

Aside from Qinyuan and Citi, who were somewhat obedient, the rest were impossible to manage.

"The demon race cannot do without the Ten Great Demon Saints—have a Da Luo Jinxian train them; I don't believe they won't obey!"

Dong Huang Taiyi felt this was difficult, for they had no need to say it again.

Even if what happened before was true, what now? Do they truly have this opportunity, or will they only think of this solution after understanding it?

"We cannot let Guiche continue like this!"

"Guiche the Nine-Headed Bird has gained notorious fame throughout Honghuang, causing problems everywhere—we must stop him!"

"Stopping him isn't impossible, but it will demand a greater cost."

There were still great differences between the demon race and the Wu tribe, but the original plan required both sides to bear risk.

Before Luo Fu the Saint appeared, both sides could operate freely within their own balance zones.

But since Luo Fu the Saint appeared, the demon race and the Wu tribe have become locked in mortal enmity, even dragging the human race into it.

Especially after half the human race had perished, Nüwa the Saint and Fuxi had remained perpetually on guard against the demon race and would never aid them.

Thinking of this, Dong Huang Taiyi felt regret.

"Big brother, it was all our fault—we didn't know Luo Fu the Saint's true identity…"

"What's there to say? This is exactly what we must bear—does knowing his identity change anything?"

Di Jun took it more calmly: the deed was done, resentment was useless; only by finding solutions could they know what to do next.

"Dong Huang, remember—you must reclaim the Chaos Eight Trigrams Tower as soon as possible, or the demon race will become a laughingstock across all Honghuang."

"I understand, Big Brother!"

To avoid becoming a laughingstock of Honghuang, they must act swiftly and seize the artifact.
