Chapter 419: Struck “Tu Yi,” A Chaotic Battle
After showing off a bit, Chen Changsheng looked down and said,
“You’ve been out for a while now; have you noticed? It seems the Heavenly Mandate is becoming stronger.”
Hearing this, “Tu Yi” nodded.
“I’ve felt it. Ever since the Jade Emperor perished, the Heavenly Mandate has grown increasingly powerful.”
“Both Emperor Huangtian and the Jade Emperor voluntarily relinquished their Heavenly Mandates, which is why their successors can bear the Mandate so quickly.”
“But the Demon Emperor perished from exhaustion; his Heavenly Mandate has completely vanished.”
“Under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t be so quick to bear the Mandate again.”
“Yet just a few thousand years have passed, and the Heavenly Mandate is about to gather again. I seem to sense a golden age descending.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng turned to “Tu Yi.”
“I sense it too. Therefore, this era has determined the starting point of the golden age.”
“You walk the path of the Demon Cultivator; for every step forward, there will be countless corpses behind you.”
“The world has many avenues; I won’t stop you from walking your path, but you are not allowed to act against this era.”
Faced with Chen Changsheng’s request, “Tu Yi” did not immediately agree but quietly looked at Chen Changsheng.
After a long while, “Tu Yi” smiled slightly.
“The era of ‘Thunder Tribulation’ marks the beginning of the future; whoever occupies the initiative will hold the advantage.”
“There are those who can bear the Heavenly Mandate; your casual word asking me to give up might be a bit too domineering.”
“I won’t deny your methods, Chen Changsheng, but your current strength is merely average.”
“If I were to truly fight you, you would be forced to pay a significant price to stop me.”
Looking at “Tu Yi’s” seemingly carefree demeanor, Chen Changsheng replied calmly.
“My speaking nicely with you doesn’t mean I have no way to deal with you or that I lack the means to eliminate you silently.”
“I speak nicely because I don’t want to see any more deaths.”
“Too many people have died for this era already, and I genuinely don’t want to see more slaughter.”
“When you chose the path of the Demon Cultivator, I could have destroyed you, but I didn’t.”
“Because I value talent!”
“But don’t forget, it was I who took the bl**d Demon Patriarch away; your methods were perfected by me, and your demonic heart was instructed by me.”
“In the realm of Demon Cultivators, I am far above you.”
As the words fell, Chen Changsheng’s eyes turned red, and the spear in his hand began to vibrate.
“Swish!”
“Tu Yi” instantly retreated a distance, then looked at Chen Changsheng with caution.
As a Demon Cultivator, “Tu Yi” had never trusted anyone, including Chen Changsheng.
Seeing “Tu Yi’s” wary demeanor, the red glow in Chen Changsheng’s eyes gradually faded.
“I once told you that to be a top Demon Cultivator, you must appear to be a good person.”
“The principle of being a great sinner while feigning loyalty is something you haven’t fully understood.”
“Since I manifested, your concealed ambitions have begun to emerge.”
“You think too highly of yourself and fail to see who you are facing.”
“When I, Chen Changsheng, preside over this era, if you are a dragon, you must coil; if a tiger, you must lie low.”
“In the Upper Realm’s three thousand states, I have faced the Beast Clan and the Forbidden Ground.”
“To defeat them, I have never relied on raw strength; if I could easily be killed, I wouldn’t be alive today.”
As his words fell, three figures surrounded “Tu Yi.”
Looking at the three figures cloaked in black robes, a tremendous sense of crisis instantly surged within him.
“Is this your means?”
“Developed a little trinket, but it’s not going to make a significant impact; it’s barely enough to take you down.”
“This is the first time and the last time.”
“Dare to give rise to unnecessary thoughts, and you will d*e!”
Saying this, Chen Changsheng recalled the three puppets.
Looking at the calm-faced Chen Changsheng, “Tu Yi” contemplated for a moment before speaking.
“Why don’t you k*ll me?”
“A Demon Cultivator’s promise is worth less than wild grass by the roadside.”
“Not killing you doesn’t mean I expect you to be a model citizen; it’s because you currently lack the qualifications to challenge me.”
“The entire world can’t be filled with good people, nor can it be filled with bad.”
“All things should be maintained at a suitable level.”
“Once it exceeds this level, the world will teach you a harsh lesson.”
“Do you know why your ancestor has lived so long and so well?”
“Because he understands when to advance and retreat, knowing how to operate within suitable rules, that’s why he thrives.”
“But once he goes against the rules, he will be beaten to a pulp.”
“The Demon Emperor didn’t follow the rules, so he died.”
“The Jade Emperor didn’t follow the rules, so he perished.”
“These individuals met their demise because they did not adhere to the rules, yet this was precisely what they sought.”
“But you are different from them; you are a Demon Cultivator.”
“The philosophy of a Demon Cultivator is singular: to live; so as long as you wish to survive, never push against the rules.”
“Especially before you have the capability to overturn the rules.”
After hearing Chen Changsheng’s words, “Tu Yi” let out a long breath and said,
“After ten thousand years, you have taught me another lesson.”
“You wouldn’t expect me to remember your kindness, would you?”
“I don’t expect you to remember my kindness, but you should remember my terror.”
“Only then will you not find yourself on the opposite side of me.”
Hearing this, “Tu Yi” grinned as he said, “As long as I don’t have the ability to k*ll you, I will definitely remember.”
……
“Boom!”
Hu Yan fell to the ground, a white claw pressing down on her head.
“Tsk tsk!”
“Little fox, how dare you challenge me!”
“You don’t know that in the jungle, foxes can’t defeat wolves?”
“You should be thankful that I’m a wolf with awakened intelligence; otherwise, you would have been in my belly.”
Faced with the Silver Moon Wolf Emperor’s mockery, Hu Yan wanted to resist but felt powerless.
Once again, feeling the sensation of being toppled, a deep sense of unwillingness arose within Hu Yan.
Losing to Ye Yongxian and the others earlier was somewhat understandable; after all, they were remarkable “figures.”
But now, she had lost to an unremarkable “wolf.”
The immense feeling of defeat gave Hu Yan a false sense of insecurity.
That is, whether she was truly suited for cultivation.
Seeing that Hu Yan was in a similar state, the “Silver Moon Wolf Emperor” abandoned further mockery.
After all, this was the niece of Tu Dou; if she ended up useless, he would likely find trouble for himself.
Thinking of this, Bai Ze, disguised as the Silver Moon Wolf Emperor, glanced at the other battlefields and murmured.
“The battles should be wrapping up soon.”
“However, that little brat Xu Mao’s offspring seems to have a bit of promise.”
“Knowing shame and seeking progress, he indeed has a touch of the Tiger Cavalry’s flavor.”
