The East Emperor exhibited a complex expression on his face, gazing at Jiang Shouzhong and said:
"I do not blame you for your actions, as everything you've done has been for survival. But Jiang Shouzhong, have you ever pondered that if you destroy this Taoyuan, you might lose the hope for survival as well?"
Jiang Shouzhong looked down at the Tribulation Fate Pool, speaking in a faint tone, "Are you referring to the Red Demon?"
"It seems you are not a dull individual."
The East Emperor slightly raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a meaningful smile,
"The Empress of the previous dynasty, in her quest to eradicate us Immortals, did not hesitate to pay the price of a fallen kingdom, summoning the Red Demon. In truth, the Red Demon had long existed in the world; it was merely unleashed by that Empress without regard.
The Empress thought the Red Demon could kill us, yet she did not consider how to seal it back or expel it once the demon was released.
