"You......"
But we need to translate the Chinese lines exactly.
Let's translate each line.
You......
This is a quoted speech: "You......" The Chinese includes the quotation marks 「」. Should we keep them? The instruction: translate faithfully, preserve meaning. Usually we would translate the quoted speech as English quotes. The Chinese uses 「」 which are Chinese quotation marks. In English we can use double quotes. We'll output: "You......" (with double quotes). The line includes the quotes; we should translate the content inside. So output: 【1】 "You......"
You...
Thus 【1】 "You......"

The Wu-Demon War Erupts, Wary of Chen Ku?
Thus ===TITLE=== line: The Wu-Demon War Erupts, Wary of Chen Ku?
Now
Di Jun's gaze was icy cold, yet he found himself at a loss for words.
Speechless!
Utterly speechless!
Faced with this unbending Chen Ku, saying anything more would just be wasting breath.
Moreover, with the Twelve Ancestral Witches now revealed, attempting to suppress and kill Hou Yi and Kua Fu is clearly unlikely.
Di Jun also couldn't be bothered to argue further with Chen Ku.
He glared hatefully at the other, then simply ignored him.
Afterward, he continued to look at the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the others.
"Di Jiang, today Hou Yi, using his superiority to bully the weak, has slain my nine sons."
"The grudge between our Wu Clan and the Demon Race can be set aside for now."
"Hou Yi and Kua Fu, I vow to kill them."
Di Jun looked toward Di Jiang, who led the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and said in a deep voice.
As soon as he appeared, he slapped Hou Yi with the charge of bullying the weak with his strength.
After all, compared to the Ten Golden Crows, Hou Yi is indeed a senior-level mighty figure.
Even, Di Jun did not hesitate to temporarily set aside the grudge between the Wu Clan and the Demon Race, solely to kill Hou Yi and Kua Fu.
This shows the depth of his hatred for them.
However, Di Jiang and the others naturally paid no heed to Di Jun's words.
"Haha, Di Jun, as the so-called Demon Emperor, you actually dare to speak such naive words."
"Today, it was originally the Ten Golden Crows who brought calamity to heaven and earth, slaughtering living beings first."
"Hou Yi and Kua Fu, these two brothers, are merely carrying out Heaven's will—what wrong could there be?!"
Di Jiang laughed heartily and responded thus.
As his words fell, Zhu Jiuyin, Zhu Rong, and the others also chimed in agreement.
"Exactly, haha, those Ten Golden Crows, violent by nature, have met their fate today—it is just deserts."
"If Hou Yi's brother is bullying the weak, then your two attacking my Wu Clan's great witch is no different, is it?"
"Hmph, the Ten Golden Crows losing nine is merely what they deserved."
"It's just a pity... that the last Golden Crow did not die, which is somewhat regrettable."
The Ancestral Witches' words were merciless, each sentence stabbing straight into Di Jun's heart's pain.
The deaths of the Nine Golden Crows already pained him greatly.
And at this moment, the words of Di Jiang and the others were still heart‑rending.
How could Di Jun bear this?!
"If that's the case, are you determined to protect Hou Yi and Kua Fu?"
Di Jun said this coldly.
Without waiting for Di Jiang to speak,
Zhu Rong beside him rolled his eyes impatiently.
"You damnable Demon Emperor, you really talk too much!"
"We will naturally protect our own brothers at any cost."
"Do you think everyone is like your demon beasts, forgetting righteousness for profit?"
In Zhu Rong's view, Di Jun's words were simply laughable.
You must know, the Wu Clan is a single line of descent, not like the Demon Race, which is a gathering of myriad tribes.
Thus, the Wu Clan lineage naturally values love and righteousness, everyone being as close as brothers.
Not to mention Hou Yi is blameless; even if he had provoked first, the Twelve Ancestral Witches would not hesitate to choose to confront the demon court head‑on.
Hearing Zhu Rong's increasingly forceful words,
At this moment, Tai Yi could hardly suppress the anger in his heart.
"If so, no more nonsense!"
"Let's fight!"
With a loud shout, Tai Yi hesitated not, his form instantly turning into a rainbow light as he launched a stunning attack on the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the others.
Seeing this, the Twelve Ancestral Witches remained calm and unafraid.
"Haha, afraid of you? Not a chance!"
"I shall come and slay you!"
Zhu Rong laughed boldly and directly went to meet Tai Yi in battle.
Things having come to this, both sides exchanged no further words.
Di Jun, the Ten Great Demon Saints, and others also launched their attacks, manifesting various divine abilities.
Meanwhile, Di Jiang, Zhu Jiuyin, and the other Ancestral Witches likewise employed their own laws, battling alongside the demon court's forces.
This battle was a clash of top‑tier power between the Wu Clan and the Demon Race, unprecedented.
All beings watched from afar, feeling their hearts tremble and their scalps explode.
The battle was so terrifying that even a mere ripple could doom an ordinary cultivator to eternal ruin, body and spirit destroyed.
However, some mighty experts at this moment furrowed their brows, gazing strangely toward the outside where Chen Ku stood.
Their divine senses were keen; they could feel that, whether it was the Twelve Ancestral Witches or Di Jun, Tai Yi, and the others, their strikes seemed to be held back.
Moreover, the strong on both sides would from time to time glance at Chen Ku.
That feeling.... was as if Chen Ku's presence made both the Wu Clan and the Demon Race quite wary.
Strange!
Really strange!
Little did they know, this feeling was not wrong.
At this moment, one could say that everyone in the Wu Clan and the Demon Race was worried that Chen Ku would intervene and aid the other side.
Di Jun Taiyi and the others naturally need not say more; earlier Chen Ku had intentionally protected Houyi and Kuafu, clearly indicating some unknown connection with the Wu Clan, or perhaps an affection.
If he were to side with the Wu Clan, that would also be reasonable.
Meanwhile, the Twelve Ancestral Wu likewise had no confidence in their hearts.
After all, Chen Ku had deep ties with Nüwa; in the eyes of the Twelve Ancestral Wu, Nüwa being a saint of the Demon Race, it was hard to guarantee he would not reach some agreement with her.
Furthermore, Di Jun had previously sent many spiritual-root immortal fruits, even the lifeblood essence of the Golden Crow.
No one could be sure that Chen Ku would not suddenly change his stance and stand alongside the Demon Race.
Though each side had different thoughts, they all worried that Chen Ku might suddenly intervene.
Therefore, they dared not use their full strength.
In other words, they were holding back strength in reserve for any eventuality.
Outside the arena!
Chen Ku had also long sensed the repeated gazes cast upon him by Di Jun Taiyi and the Twelve Ancestral Wu, among others.
With his heart-mind penetrating, he had already clearly understood everyone's thoughts.
For a moment, Chen Ku was full of helplessness.
"Ku ah......"
"I am merely here to watch the fun; why must I be so feared?"
He chuckled, shook his head, and sighed.
Then he turned his gaze to the Wu Clan and Demon Race members on the field.
"Today's great battle of yours has nothing to do with me."
"I will naturally not intervene."
"I only have one condition: as long as it does not involve the human race, it is fine."
"Otherwise, do not blame me for being ruthless."
Chen Ku did not conceal it, directly speaking his mind.
As long as the human race is not dragged into this calamity, even if the Wu Clan and Demon Race fight until heaven and earth are dark and the sun and moon lose their light, what does it have to do with me?!
Hearing this, Di Jiang in the field felt greatly relieved, laughing as he responded:
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Chen Ku, you can rest assured!"
"Our target is only the Demon Race; we will naturally not implicate human beings."
Di Jiang hesitated not.
This point, he had already promised Chen Ku long ago.
On the other side, Di Jun, though his face was grim, likewise spoke in a low voice:
"We, the Demon Race, will also not act against the human race!"
First, Di Jun fears Chen Ku's might, so he will naturally not cause any further trouble.
Second, the human lineage shares deep karmic ties with the two saints Nüwa and Laozi, as well as with Chen Ku.
Therefore, Di Jun will all the more avoid involving them, lest he provoke the saints.
Hearing both sides' responses, Chen Ku nodded with a smile.
"Hehe, in that case, I too am relieved."
"Then you may fight to the death; I will take my leave now."
Leaving such words, Chen Ku also appeared carefree and unrestrained.
Immediately turning his form, he soon vanished into the void.
Thus, both the Wu Clan and the Demon Race were completely at ease, their expressions relaxing.
"Haha, this time we can finally have a hearty battle."
Di Jiang sighed with such feeling.
Immediately after, he loudly shouted toward the heavens:
"Where are the sons of my Wu Clan?"
"Quickly follow me to slay the enemy, in one fell swoop trample the Demon Court and exterminate these hateful demons."
As he spoke, spatial laws surged around Di Jiang's person.
Not long after, another spatial passage emerged.
Vast numbers of ordinary Wu Clan beings, like a tide, rushed from the spatial passage to join the battle.
Opposite them, Di Jun Taiyi also had no nonsense.
The Chaos Bell hung high in the heavens, rumbling without cease.
The Demon Court likewise mobilized troops and dispatched generals, holding nothing back.
The war between the Wu Clan and the Demon Race thus truly erupted.
Between heaven and earth, endless clashing of battle, roars, screams, and the like filled the air, deafening.
Between heaven and earth!
All beings had already retreated millions of li away, fearing to be swept up by the battle's aftermath.
Yet countless beings grew ever more shocked, unable to calm.
Hiss... this battle finally erupted after all.
A powerful being sighed thus.
The Wu Clan and the Demon Race's feud never ceased; regarding this battle, all beings had long anticipated it.
But today, upon personally witnessing the earth-shattering scene of the great battle, they still felt a tremendous shock, their hearts trembling and their hair standing on end.
"Di Jun greatly values the Ten Golden Crows; now all nine of them have perished."
"In this battle, Di Jun will surely be locked in a fight to the death."
"Heavens, could it be that after this battle, one side of the Wu Clan and the Demon Race will be completely wiped out?"
"Hmm... although the great battle is shocking, Chen Ku's methods are even more extraordinary."
"He is almost the catalyst of this battle, yet he can retreat unscathed, without a trace of karma."
"Even with just a few words, he can protect all of humanity; truly an unparalleled deterrent force through the ages."
"Who would say otherwise? Humans are indeed fortunate to receive Chen Ku's favor and protection."
Such discussion and amazement spread from every corner of heaven and earth.
Compared to the brutality of the Wu Clan and Demon Race's great battle, Chen Ku's clever maneuver allowed him to retreat completely unharmed, making all beings feel incredulous.
Western Heaven and Earth!
Two Boundary Mountain, Five Villas Temple!
Just as in the past, Zhenyuanzi and Hongyun sat facing each other.
At this moment, they were also watching the scene of the Wu Clan and Demon Race's great battle, their expressions solemn, their gazes reverent.
"Indeed, Daoist friend Chen Ku had foresight, allowing me to move my dojo to this western realm."
"Otherwise, even if the demon court side did not deliberately provoke, such a great battle would probably make it hard to preserve oneself wisely."
Zhenyuanzi spoke in a muffled voice, sighing thus.
As a quasi-saint strongman, a top-tier innate mighty one, he could also sense the horror of this battle.
It appears to be a struggle for supremacy between the Wu Clan and the Demon Race, but in fact it is truly the Great Calamity of heaven and earth that has fully erupted.
In such a calamity, perhaps except for saints, no one dares to claim they can ensure their own safety.
Upon hearing this, Hongyun beside also nodded in deep agreement.
"This wave, I don't know how many eastern powerhouses will suffer."
"Even if merely stained with a bit of the Great Calamity's karma, it will greatly affect one's cultivation."
Hongyun also felt fortunate in her heart.
Our side has already joined the Western Buddhist Gate; not only will we not be affected by the great battle, even karma cannot hope to stain us.
This can be said to be a great fortune.
Western Kunlun!
The Queen Mother of the West's eyes were clear and cold, yet tranquil.
She merely glanced indifferently at the scene of the great battle, then withdrew her gaze.
"The great battle has begun again......"
"When will this realm obtain eternal peace and tranquility?"
The Queen Mother of the West sighed thus.
However, no matter how the outside world overturns, as long as it does not affect this Western Kunlun, she will not pay attention.
If one says the Minghe Old Ancestor is a rare 'homebody' among the primordial, then the Queen Mother of the West is equally a 'homegirl'.
Immediately, she stopped thinking further and continued her closed-door cultivation.
In the Endless Blood Sea.
Minghe Old Ancestor observed the Wu Clan and Demon Race's great battle.
But he showed no trace of fear or worry; instead, his face was full of anticipation.
"Haha, fight, fight!"
"The fiercer the two clans fight, the more living beings die, the more I will benefit."
Minghe Old Ancestor seemed to fear that the world would not be chaotic.
Whether it is the Wu Clan or the Demon Race, the more living beings fall, the more blood-killing qi and resentful spirits are produced, and so on.
At that time, all will gather in the Endless Blood Sea; wouldn't that be able to strengthen one's origin?
Earlier, Chen Ku acted forcefully, purifying one-third of the Blood Sea.
Now the Minghe River also urgently needs to replenish a wave of blood-killing qi to return to its true peak state.
Minghe Old Ancestor's face was full of excitement; he could hardly restrain himself from personally taking action, opening a great slaughter.
In Kunlun Mountain!
The Three Pure Ones naturally could not turn a blind eye.
"The great battle has finally erupted!"
"After this battle... which side could possibly win?"
Tongtian muttered to himself, his gaze deep.
During the Great Calamity, heavenly secrets are in chaos.
Even a sage cannot see through illusion and discern the future.
Hearing these words, Yuan Shi opened their mouth to respond:
"Although the Wu Clan lineage possesses strong physical bodies, they do not cultivate the primordial spirit, ultimately an innate flaw."
"I suppose, in the end, the Demon Race side will be victorious."
Usually, Yuan Shi is haughty and arrogant, although they look down upon the Demon Race's living beings.
But this time, he turned out to be unexpected, predicting that the Demon Race would be the ultimate victors.
And what he said also made some sense.
But regarding this, Tongtian obviously did not agree.
He shook his head, continued watching the scene of the Wu Clan-Demon Race war, and said in a deep voice:
"Elder Yuanshi's words, in my view, are not so!"
"The Wu Clan also inherits Pangu's essence blood; they are the orthodox lineage of Pangu."
"Moreover, they have several times seized the Demon Race's territory and cultivation resources."
"Now, after accumulating strength, the Demon Race may not be their match."
It can be said that both have their own considerations and analyses.
Hearing Tongtian's rebuttal, Yuanshi seemed somewhat displeased.
However, he did not say anything, but instead looked toward the leader, Laozi.
"What does Elder Taishang think the outcome of this battle will be?"
He asked for Laozi's opinion.
But upon hearing this, Laozi's expression showed no ripple.
After a moment, he merely shook his head, yet did not speak.
Needless to say, Laozi also could no longer predict the outcome of this battle.
The various powerful beings, or even sages, can be said to all adopt the stance of detached onlookers who hang high, unconcerned.
But at this moment, in the Primordial Heaven, Nüwa Palace.
Nüwa's expression was the sole heaviness she had ever shown.
Her slender jade fingers moved, calculating something.
And the more she calculated, the uglier Nüwa's expression became.
