"Master, master, what do you want from me?" A merman jumped out of the water and hopped over.
Chenyu slapped him back into the sea. "Rebellious disciple! Have you caused trouble again outside? Otherwise, why would Chongming reject you as his son - in - law?!"
On the other side, Yaohua finished her communication with the Phoenix Clan and asked in confusion, "Master, did you just mention my name?"
Chongming was calmly contacting the next person while holding the jade token. "No, you misheard."
Zhao Wu curled his lips and secretly complained in his heart: This old guy got so angry at the thought of arranging a blind date for Yaohua that he even ignored their friendship and directly ended the communication. It's obvious that his feelings are not pure!
So, under Chongming's murderous gaze, he quietly got a bit closer to Yaohua.
After a while, both of them were parched. They looked into each other's eyes, and Yaohua forced a smile. "I originally planned to announce it to the world and gather an army. But after the last natural disaster, the strength of the Phoenix Clan has been greatly weakened. The Phoenix Clan is an ancient great demon. Even when there are abundant grains and herbs, they are in such a state. Now, the other demon clans simply can't spare any hands."
In front of her were dozens of paper cranes. She had been contacting the clan leaders of various clans.
"It doesn't matter," Chongming comforted her. "The eighteen divine generals are enough. Now that demonic qi is rising everywhere in the world, if the various clans were to send out their elite forces to attack the Celestial Realm, their own clans might be taken advantage of by the cunning demons."
Yaohua nodded. "Okay, I'll go and remind them to pay attention to clearing the demonic qi in their clan lands. Many clan leaders simply don't believe that the Celestial Realm will fall so soon. But if they ignore their territories, it will be the common people in the world who will suffer."
At this time, Chongming's paper cranes also returned one after another, and the replies from the immortals rang out from inside.
"Thank you, great god, for the reminder. Please allow me to protect my believers first and then come to assist."
"The disaster in the Celestial Realm will surely cause turmoil in the world. It's just that the journey is long, so I may arrive a bit late."
"Eliminating the demons is our bounden duty. If the divine general needs pills, I can order my disciples to refine more and bring them."
The replies rang out one by one, and the tones were all extremely solemn. They unhesitatingly believed Chongming's words.
Chongming frowned slightly while holding the jade token. "All the immortals will gather within two hours, but the Divine General Wenhua has shown no sign of movement."
They were few in number. If they attacked through the Heavenly Gate, they might be exhausted by the endless demons. The best way was to enter the Celestial Realm secretly and directly go for Zhao Yue.
Therefore, the presence of the Divine General Wenhua was crucial.
"How about going to find him in person?" Yaohua suggested.
Chongming nodded. Just as he was about to set off, he suddenly turned to look at her. "What about you..."
"I'll wait for you here and receive the immortals by the way," Yaohua said with a smile.
Chongming frowned. He always felt that something was wrong. He instructed, "Some immortals have strange tempers. Don't be willful and offend them. If they make you unhappy, you don't have to force a smile. Just keep a cold face and wait for me to come back."
Yaohua felt warm in her heart. "Don't worry, master."
After confirming that her master had left, she looked in the direction of the Celestial Realm, and her gaze gradually became firm. "Zhao Wu, do you think if I defect to the demonic clan now, will our chances of winning be greater?"
Zhao Wu raised his eyebrows high and waved his hand at her. "Are you crazy? Are you going to abandon the Phoenix Clan, your master, and the righteousness of the world?"
Yaohua fell silent.
The invasion of the demonic clan was so powerful that even the entire Celestial Realm couldn't resist. She was injured now and couldn't be of much help to Chongming.
Worse still, Chongming also seemed to be subtly affected by the demonic qi. It was hard to guarantee that he wouldn't repeat the nightmare of the previous life in the battle.
But if she became an insider, the situation might be different.
In the Celestial Realm, the once - fairy - filled palaces were now covered with layers of demonic qi. Dark clouds hung low, as if brewing countless thunderbolts.
Boom!
The thunderbolt struck and split into nineteen bolts, hitting the wooden stakes.
Each wooden stake was tied with a handsome immortal. They endured the pain without crying out, but their faces were already distorted by the intense pain. The wooden stakes continuously emitted demonic qi, trying to erode them.
"Eating the delicious meat of the immortals with the immortals' tableware in the Celestial Realm is truly extremely enjoyable!"
A burly four - horned demon spoke boldly, which caused the demons present to laugh heartily.
He stepped on the half - body remains on the table and fiercely urged, "Hurry up! Roast them a bit more!"
The forearms and legs of the remains had been completely eaten, and only the torso was still wriggling painfully, letting out screams.
As the screams rang out, the heavenly thunder struck again.
The demon sitting next to him stabbed an eyeball and had a blood - thirsty smile on his face. "This so - called Thunder God usually loves to search for demons on the land of Kyushu. Once he finds a demon, he strikes with thunder. Now, isn't he obediently crawling at our feet?"
He forcefully stuffed a piece of meat into the Thunder God's mouth. "Eat quickly. This is the immortal meat you roasted yourself. It contains countless spiritual powers. If you eat it, maybe your eyes will grow back."
The demons all loved to watch such bloody scenes and laughed. "Shi Mo, you are really full of tricks when it comes to eating. It's very interesting!"
A purple - haired and green - bearded demon was eager to try. "Do you think if we tear the Thunder God's body apart, there will be thunder?"
The remains of the Thunder God couldn't bear such humiliation and struggled violently. But he could only wriggle on the ground like a maggot. Even his anger could only turn into heavenly thunder, striking the other immortals. Two lines of blood and tears flowed from his empty eye sockets, full of despair.
A wine cup was thrown and hit the purple - haired demon on the head. The bright red wine splashed out.
The purple - haired demon was stunned. "Lord Zhao Yue, you are already the master of the three realms. Why are you still so irritable?"
Zhao Yue reclined on the couch. Her jade feet with red - stringed bells kicked away the fairy serving beside the couch. She complained listlessly, "Are the people in the immortal world all dead? They have no charm at all, and they are all so fucking ugly!"
Her beautiful eyes were full of anger. "I originally thought that everyone in the immortal world was as beautiful as the little phoenix. Now it seems that they are just so - so. I wasted so much effort to conquer this place and even lost Jing He."
The fairy was dragged away blankly. The demons looked at each other, with a hint of fear and caution in their eyes. The timid demons even knelt down directly, kowtowing in fear. "Chief, please calm down! We'll immediately select beautiful women from the three realms."
At this time, a little demon came forward tremblingly to report. "M, my lord, Zhao Wu has brought Yaohua here!"
Zhao Yue immediately stood up. Her pupils turned pitch - black, like a bottomless deep pool, and her red lips curled into a wicked arc. "Are they here to challenge?"
The moment her pupils changed color, all the demons knelt down with a thud, their foreheads touching the ground, full of fear and caution.
