Houtu immediately came to a realization when she heard Gungun's words to Ao Yue.
That was right. The Demon Tribe could hold off the Ancestors of Sorcery and prevent the Twelve Divine Beings Killing Formation from being activated, and the Senior Sorcerers under his command could also hold off the Zenith Heaven Demon Gods and prevent them from activating the Heavenly Cycle Stars Formation. Since the formations of both sides could not be activated, the Demon Tribe might not be stronger than the Wu Tribe.
Ao Yue had just said that they could not defeat Taiyi or Emperor Jun, and that Xihe, the Ten Great Demonic Sages, and he could still stop them.
The demon race only had these Quasi-Sages.
But what about his own Sorcerer Tribe?
Great Wizard Hou Yi, Xing Tian, Nine Phoenix, and the others were all Quasi-Sage experts.
How was their overall strength inferior to the demons?
The war between the two races was not a one-on-one fight between the leaders. So what if Tai Yi was invincible in the world? So what if he had the Bell of Chaos? Who was afraid of him?
"Humph!" Thinking of this, Houtu flung her sleeves, tilted her head, and made a nasal sound.
……
On the Soft Bone Grassland.
" This…" Ao Yue had never expected that this cute looking big fat bear, who only slept and ate, would actually think of such a question in an instant.
Could he say that he had never thought of this before?
" If the Demon Race is holding back a few Ancestors of Sorcery and the Wu Race is holding back a few Zenith Heaven Demon Gods, causing both sides to be unable to use their killing formations, then…" Ao Yue thought to herself, and then her body instantly shivered.
He didn't think that the Demon Tribe would lose, but he thought of the war that had just ended tens of thousands of years ago. The Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin had fought for the position of the protagonist of heaven and earth. The war affected the entire Untainted Land, but there was no winner in that war. All three tribes were defeated.
Because after the war ended, the remaining strength of the three races would no longer be qualified to compete for the position of the main character. If they did not even have the qualifications, how could there be any winners?
Demon Clan, Sorcerer Clan…
Even though Ao Yue still believed that the Demon Race was stronger, it was undeniable that the Sorcerer Race was not to be underestimated. If they could not use the Heavenly Cycle Stars Formation to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, and instead fought each other obediently, then…
Ao Yue could not help but worry whether the two clans would end up like the dragon, phoenix, and qilin.
At the thought of this, sweat gradually formed on his forehead.
Was he going to experience the tragedy from back then again?
"Oh! Brother, what's wrong with you? Your expression is a little strange. Have you not recovered from your injuries?”Gungun, who still had an ice pop in its mouth, noticed Ao Yue's abnormality and asked him.
"No, it's nothing." Ao Yue came back to her senses and took a deep breath. She shook her head and said to Gungun.
Then, he frowned and advised it,""But no matter what, the Demon Tribe is indeed stronger than the Wu Tribe. Moreover, the Heavenly Court has the Bell of Chaos to suppress fate, but the Wu Tribe doesn't have a treasure to suppress fate. His Majesty the Eastern Emperor sincerely admires you and is even willing to give you the Emerald Light Duality Lamp, one of the four great divine lamps.”
Hearing this question and seeing how Ao Yue wanted to help Donghuang Taiyi recruit him into the demon race, Rollie had no choice but to use his trump card.
"Sigh!" It took out the popsicle in its mouth and sighed. It raised its head and looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle. A human-like look of reminiscence appeared on its face as it muttered," I remember back in the Iron-eating Forest, I was just a little baby Iron-eating Beast. My cultivation was only at the level of Gold Immortal, and I was often bullied by all kinds of big demons. I was the Ancestor of Sorcery Houtu. She picked me up on a rainy night and brought me up until now. I became a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal because of the hard work of the Ancestor of Sorcery. The Wu Tribe is my home, and the Ancestor of Sorcery and the other Great Sorcerers are my family, so..."
As it spoke, Gungun squeezed out two drops of tears and lowered its head so that Ao Yue could see it. Then, it used its fat bear paw to wipe it away and continued in a whimpering voice,"Therefore, even if the demon race is stronger and His Majesty the Eastern Emperor has discerning eyes, I definitely cannot betray the Great Ancestral Sorcerer. I, Gungun, am willing to die in battle for the Sorcerer Tribe, but I'm not willing to betray the Sorcerer Tribe to survive.”
Ao Yue: "!!!"
After hearing Rollie's words, Ao Yue was instantly stunned when she saw its tears and incomparably 'sincere' expression before seeing the determination on its face.
He really did not expect that this lazy and seemingly unprincipled fat bear would be so loyal. Houtu had raised it, so it would rather die for the Sorcerer Tribe than seek refuge with the Demon Tribe.
This…wasn't it the same as him?
Ao Yue's eyes widened, and she suddenly had the illusion that she had met a confidant.
Taiyi had saved him from Kun Peng and even used his Origin Energy to heal him. He had helped him integrate the powers of the Ancestral Dragon in his body. Then, he had used the Bell of Chaos to draw upon the Hong Meng Star and forged a divine weapon for him-the Dragon God Battling the Heavens Halberd!
In order to repay Taiyi's kindness, he was willing to serve him as a mount and call himself the 'Great Sun Heavenly Dragon' from now on to correspond to the Great Sun Golden Crow.
Of course, Taiyi did not treat him as a mount. On the contrary, he ignored the objections of the various races and made his own decisions in the Soaring Heaven King Palace. He issued an edict to confer him the title of Guardian of the Eastern Emperor and command the strongest army of the Demon Race, the Six Heavenly Guards. He also officially established his status in the Demon Race, which was only second to the Demon Thearch, Demon Empress, and Eastern Emperor. He was above the Ten Great Demon Sages.
Ao Yue had never forgotten Taiyi's kindness to him. Therefore, if someone persuaded him to betray Taiyi, he would definitely not agree.
This…
Thinking about it from the bottom of her heart, Ao Yue felt that this bear in front of her was very affectionate and righteous!
Thinking of this, Ao Yue closed her eyes and did not say anything else.
As for Gungun, seeing that he didn't say anything, it decided not to speak either. It continued sitting there and ate the popsicle again. After eating the popsicle, it would eat the spiritual fruits that Ao Yue had sent over.
……
In the void, Houtu was also extremely touched when she heard Gungun's words.
She knew that other than being a little lazy, Rollie was not bad in other aspects, but she did not expect it to be so sentimental…
I don't know if my acting has fooled this fool. It shouldn't be a problem, right?
Gungun's inner voice entered Houtu's ears. Hearing it, the touched expression on Houtu's face froze.
W-what's going on? Acting skills?
" Sigh, aren't you trying to kill me by sending me to the Demon Clan? Do you think I'm like you? You can escape unscathed from the battle between the Sorcerer and Demon Clans. In fact, East Emperor Taiyi didn't even let you fight in the final battle to protect you. But what about me? Who will protect me?"
I, Rollie, have experienced countless dangers, slept for countless days and nights, and ate countless spiritual fruits before I became a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. I still hope to go to the underworld to idle in the future. There's no way I'll face the tribulation!
Houtu was speechless.
