Chapter 287: Primordial World in Uproar

~8 min read 1,523 words

Kill Luo Fu.

And bring along the demon gods of the demon race.

One could say that Emperor Jun did exactly this—pouring out his entire force, bringing every top-tier power of the demon race.

Even during the decisive battle with the Witch Clan, it was only this level of mobilization.

But now, they're only dealing with a single human—does this really require such effort?

"Big brother, it's just one human. Even if he got lucky and killed Jiu Yin, with my strength, killing him would be effortless," said Dong Huang Taiyi, puzzled.

If his big brother ordered it, Dong Huang Taiyi would take the Chaos Bell to the Primordial World and slay Luo Fu.

A mere Taiyi Jin Xian was, in Dong Huang Taiyi's eyes, nothing but an ant.

He didn't even need to use his magic treasure to easily crush that human Luo Fu.

"That human Luo Fu's strength is decent, but only to that extent. The real reason I've mobilized the entire demon race is because of the Saint," Emperor Jun's eyes flickered.

"The Saint?" Dong Huang Taiyi hesitated—he clearly didn't understand his brother's intent.

"That's right, precisely because of the Saint's presence," Emperor Jun chuckled softly, fixing his gaze on the Bai Ze below. "Bai Ze, you must already have some idea why I'm doing this—speak your thoughts."

"Bai Ze dares not," Bai Ze said respectfully.

"What dare you not? Even if you're wrong, there will be no punishment," Emperor Jun said coolly, gesturing for Bai Ze to speak freely.

"Yes, Your Majesty," Bai Ze nodded.

Bai Ze, having served alongside this Emperor Jun for some time, understood his nature well.

At this moment, Emperor Jun was certainly not speaking ironically.

"If only Great Brother Taiyi were to confront Luo Fu, success is not guaranteed," Bai Ze explained. "If Saint Tongtian's power intervenes, it would be far more dangerous for you, since as Luo Fu's master, Saint Tongtian would not want his direct disciple harmed."

"But now, Your Majesty leads the entire demon race against Luo Fu—this represents the demon race's honor and its destiny," Bai Ze said gravely. "Even if a Saint tries to interfere, they will face the power of the Heavenly Calamity. Under such force, even those Heavenly Dao Saints may suffer greatly."

"Moreover, Jiu Yin died first—we have justification to act against Luo Fu. Even if that Heavenly Dao Saint eventually appears to stop us, we can still force him to pay a price."

"This is my humble thought—does Your Majesty have further ideas?" Bai Ze said modestly.

Emperor Jun looked at Bai Ze before nodding in satisfaction.

Bai Ze had articulated his thoughts perfectly—even some points Emperor Jun himself hadn't yet considered, and Bai Ze had flawlessly filled the gaps in his reasoning.

No wonder he was the demon race's strategist, and arguably the wisest among the demon gods.

"Bai Ze, you've said nearly everything—I originally thought along these lines," Emperor Jun said solemnly. "Because that human Luo Fu has Saint Tongtian Jiaozhu behind him, we must proceed with extreme caution."

"But Jiu Yin's death cannot be ignored—otherwise, how can the demon race stand in Heaven and Earth? How can we stand against the Witch Clan?"

"Your Majesty is wise!" shouted Bai Ze, Ji Meng, and the other demon gods.

In truth, this course of action was also a favorable outcome.

If a Saint truly intervenes, we must still make him pay—rather than let Jiu Yin's death go unanswered simply because we fear the Saint.

Otherwise,

the demon race would become a true laughingstock across the Primordial World.

Otherwise, wouldn't it mean that whenever a Saint's direct disciple kills a demon god, we dare not respond?

Among the demon race, how many demon gods are there? The Saint's direct disciples outnumber them.

If so, the demon race would truly become the joke of jokes.

For any other powerful being—even a Peak Saint—Emperor Jun would not hesitate: he'd simply lead the demon race to sweep them away, even kill them outright.

The demon race possesses such strength.

In this world, aside from those few Heavenly Dao Saints, Emperor Jun and his demon race feared no one.

Even the Ancestral Witches? If they refused to submit, they'd fight.

But this time, we may face a Heavenly Dao Saint—so Emperor Jun must act with caution.

"Big brother, where do we find this human Luo Fu?" Dong Huang Taiyi suddenly frowned.

"Find that human," Emperor Jun smiled faintly. "He killed the demon god Jiu Yin—there is karmic debt between him and our demon race. With our Peak Saint power, deducing his general direction should be easy, right?"

"Not easy," Dong Huang Taiyi sighed. "Big brother, I can't trace even a single footprint of that human Luo Fu."

"Can't trace him?" Emperor Jun froze, then used his Peak Saint power to divine—only to be stunned: he, too, could not locate Luo Fu.

That human seemed shrouded in thick veils of mist, hiding every trace of his presence.

A mere Taiyi Jin Xian should never be able to evade detection entirely.

Realizing this, Emperor Jun no longer hesitated—he flipped his palm, and a radiant magic treasure appeared in his hand.

It was the Hetu Luoshu.

A treasure with astonishing divination power and countless strange abilities.

Just as the future Human Emperor Fu Xi had used the Hetu Luoshu to create the famed Eight Trigrams.

The Eight Trigrams contained the ultimate principles of Heaven and Earth.

They were also the method by which Human Emperor Fu Xi attained Dao.

From this alone, it was clear the Hetu Luoshu held unimaginable power.

It was a true top-tier primordial magic treasure.

Then, the Hetu Luoshu glowed with hazy light, and myriad Dao runes flashed across its surface.

Emperor Jun emitted golden light, which flowed into the Hetu Luoshu.

But not long after,

Emperor Jun's face paled, and the light on the Hetu Luoshu in his hand slowly faded away.

"Big brother, what happened?" Dong Huang Taiyi asked beside him.

His familiarity with his brother told Dong Huang Taiyi that something had just occurred.

"Nothing," Emperor Jun waved his hand. "I discovered that this human Luo Fu is shrouded in Saintly power, concealing every trace of him."

"Even with the aid of the Hetu Luoshu's power, it's still hard to divine where the other party actually is."

"This..." Donghuang Taiyi was stunned.

Since they couldn't divine where Luo Fu was, this time the demon race wanted revenge but couldn't even find a target.

Were they going to give up just like that?

As for going directly to find Saint Tongtian Jiaozhu, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi didn't have such boldness either.

"Brother, then what should we do? Are we just going to let this matter drop?" Donghuang Taiyi asked.

"Let it drop? How could we possibly just let it drop." Di Jun's eyes carried a cold glint. "Even if we can't divine it, then we'll mobilize all the demon race under heaven. As soon as anyone discovers traces of the human Luo Fu, report it immediately, and they'll receive a certain reward."

"When the time comes, we can bring powerful experts to suppress the human Luo Fu."

"We'll issue a warrant for the human Luo Fu across the entire world. Even if other beings of the Primordial World discover the slightest trace of him, they too can come and receive a reward."

"This is the demon race's Ye Tiandi's oath to the world."

At this moment, Di Jun wanted to borrow the beings of this world to discover where Luo Fu actually was.

He simply couldn't believe that the beings of the entire world still couldn't find out where Luo Fu was.

This demon race's Ye Tiandi had no idea.

When he issued the warrant to the world, Luo Fu was still staying at the original place of battle, undergoing his own cultivation and transformation.

But undoubtedly—

Luo Fu's slaying of the demon god Jiuying, along with the demon race's warrant, shook the entire Primordial World.

With the power of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, he had slain the Grand Luo Jinxian Jiuying against the odds.

Regardless of whether the other party had used some clever trick, undoubtedly, his strength was not simply that of an ordinary Taiyi Golden Immortal.

This caused Luo Fu to truly create a tremendous sensation across the Primordial lands this time.

This time—

It was no longer just those powerful experts who knew of this saint's personal disciple.

Because of the demon race's promotion, the majority of the Primordial World's beings now knew of this person called Luo Fu, whether strong or weak.

A being of ordinary human flesh who became a saint's personal disciple.

In the saints' Three Sects competition, he defeated the other personal disciples and took first place.

With the power of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, he slew the Grand Luo Jinxian Jiuying.

These deeds made Luo Fu the most dazzling figure in this heaven and earth.

The entire Primordial World was discussing the matter of Luo Fu.

As for Luo Fu himself, he didn't know about this, nor did he need to know.

Within the small world.
