Through layers of clouds and mist, Demon Saint calmly watched the activity in the world below him from the top of the Holy Pillar with the magic staff in his hand.
Behind Demon Saint, an old man in a white Daoist robe approached. Glancing at the world below, he smiled. âNot going to make a move?â
The old man was Second Generation Demon Saintâs Sage Master, and the two of them were inseparable. His main duty was to assist Demon Saint in managing the demon world better, and at the same time, to supervise and direct Demon Saintâs succession. There was a rumor in the outside world that Demon Saint was a hereditary position, but this wasnât trueâ¦
Hearing the old manâs question, Second Generation Demon Saint shook his head. âIâve long wanted to teach these juniors a lesson, so itâs nice that someone is now doing it for me. Moreover, I can sense that they donât truly have any intent to kill. The only thing Iâm curious about now is this dogâs originâ¦â
He looked at the old man next to him. âDo you have any ideas, Sage Master?â
âNo.â Sage Master shook his head plainly. âI already tried using the Destiny Ball to check, but all I saw was a heap of fuzzy pixelsâ¦â
âPixels?â Second Generation Demon Saint was blank.
âMm.â Sage Master nodded his head. âThese pixels should be directly related to the dogâs owner. This dogâs owner is very unusual. He might not be a human cultivator from Earth at all, and itâs extremely possible that heâs from outside our Milky Way. We have no way of knowing if thereâs life beyond the Milky Way, but it is indeed frightening. During the reign of the first Demon Saint, he encountered an orangutan from outside our galaxy that had inadvertently passed into the demon world through the spatial wall, and almost tore apart the Holy Pillarâ¦â
Second Generation Demon Saint was surprised. âThere was such a thing? How come Iâve never heard of it?â
Sage Master: âOf course you havenât. The only records we have of this alien invasion are in Demon Saintâs Holy Palace. But you havenât seen any of them since your succession.â
Second Generation Demon Saint was silent before saying soon after, âSage Master, you should know I never intended to be Demon Saintâ¦â
âBut it was Heavenâs will.â
Sage Master said, âI was the one who decided the succession method for the first Demon Saint. Later, the first Demon Saint decided the succession method, which was how this generation came to be. Indeed, this succession method might seem a little bizarreâ¦â
At this point, Second Generation Demon Saint wanted to cry. âItâs more than a little bizarre!!!â
Sage Master shook his head. âIt canât be helped. If you want to retire, youâll have to wait for the next generation Demon Saint to show up. Otherwise, youâll suffer a backlash from the Holy Pillar. I already told you all these specifics when you succeeded.â
Second Generation Demon Saint was silent.
In fact, he had a hunch that the appearance of the next generation Demon Saint wasnât too far awayâ¦

On the throne made from a pile of western and eastern Soul Formation heroic spirit soldiers, Dog Two looked down from its commanding height. It was really very grand, and the auras of these thousands of Soul Formation heroic spirits alone gave people a sense of gravity and fear.
With the auras overlapping one another, the originally blue sky in that moment was filled with a bank of overcast clouds, instantly changing the colors of this world. Holding the lamp post, Gilgamesh dialed the light up to its fullest and focused it on Dog Twoâs head.
This scene actually gave off the sense of a work of art, which satisfied Zhenyuan immensely; Gilgameshâs lighting skills had steadily improved under Zhenyuanâs instructions all these years.
âTheyâre almost here.â
At that moment, Dog Two suddenly looked up at the sky.
Two auras approached from the east.
Scorpion King of the East and Elder Wen arrived togetherâ¦
At that moment, all the actors were in place.
Actually, the reason why Zhenyuan had thought to build this heroic spirit throne had been to buy time for Scorpion King to show up.
Scorpion Kingâs appearance also left the demon gods of the southern, northern and western territories feeling ashamed. They had previously banded together to crowd out the eastern territory, which was currently the strongest of the four territories. This involved framing the Sky-Swallowing Toad clan for hiding magic WMDs and issuing hundredfold tariffs, thus raising trade barriers, all of which were aimed at suppressing the eastern territory.
They had thought that they were dead for sure today, but they never expected Scorpion King and Elder Wen to appear at all.
The pressure from the throne made up of tens of thousands of Soul Formation heroic spirit soldiers was so great that it created a natural surrounding golden mist restriction so that no one could clearly see in front of them, not even with an eye technique.
Scorpion King and Elder Wen had no choice but to descend from the sky a fair distance away; they were unable to fly anymore and could only approach on foot.
When the two men appeared at the pass to the western territory and saw this towering throne made of heroic spirit soldiers, they both felt like they had stepped into something miraculous.
âYour Majesty, this is it,â Elder Wen said with difficulty to the young man next to him dressed in purple and gold Daoist robes. Even opening his mouth to speak at that moment was hard given the tremendous pressure.
The young man standing beside him had long gray hair pinned up in a bun with an unprepossessing hairpin; this was a holy weapon created from the stinger in his tail.
As the two of them drew near, they felt their steps grow increasingly heavier.
âI sense the auras of Venerated Ox, Ghost Emperor and Turtle Devil nearby, as well as the auras of many other demon beasts. Butâ¦â Scorpion King looked around. âWhereâs everyone?â
ââ¦â
Elder Wen: âScorpion King, please lift your foot. Youâre standing on them.â
Scorpion King: ââ¦â
Because of the nearby golden mist that hovered around the heroic spirit throne, Scorpion King hadnât noticed at the time. When he heard Elder Wenâs warning, he looked down and was completely dumbstruck!
The ground under his feet was actually inlaid with demonsâ¦
The demon kings of the western territory and the three demon gods were buried in the earth with just their heads sticking out.
ââ¦â
The purple-robed young man sucked in a cold breath of air.
What the hell?! Was this Whack-A-Mole?
The young man lifted his foot and saw that he had stepped on Turtle Devil, pushing the latterâs head back into his shell; when his head popped out again, he still had a shoeprint on his face.
Scorpion Kingâs mood was immediately lifted. For months his eastern territory had been bulliedâ¦
This foot!
It felt too good to bring it down!
And vent!
The young man was wondering whether to go step on the faces of the others, but before he could move his feet, he felt a pressure on his shoulder.
âBoth of you go down too~â Zhenyuan acted once again.
Scorpion King and Elder Wen were then aghast to find their bodies stuck.
The two people were buried right next to Venerated Ox of the West.
At that moment, the demon gods of the four inner territories had finally come together and were all buried without exception!
Zhenyuan clapped his hands and smiled. The most important thing for a family was to be neat and tidy 1 !
