The three of them sat in the Dragon Palace, discussing the Dao, while outside, the world was turned upside down.
With a suitable territory, Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi could finally go all out, beginning to strike at those members of the Demon Clan who refused to submit to their brothers.
Some neutral Great Demons were forced to choose a side, submitting to the Heavenly Court.
From then on, the Demon Clan was unified.
Many Great Demons accepted the leadership of Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and thus, the Demon Clan's Emperors were born.
Demon Emperor Di Jun, Eastern Emperor Taiyi—for a time, the Demon Clan's destiny surged, and their momentum was immense.
Di Jun conferred titles upon many Great Demons, with the Great Demon Bai Ze as the leader, who was titled Demon Commander.
With the unification of the Demon Clan, Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi also became busy.
What gave Di Jun the biggest headache was the debt owed to the Dragon Clan. He didn't realize how much it was until he calculated it, and when he found out the Demon Clan needed to give half of its harvest to the Dragon Clan, Di Jun's heart turned cold.
If these resources were used on the Demon Clan, it would certainly greatly increase the strength of countless Demon Clan members.
Unfortunately, the promise had been made, and no matter how reluctant Di Jun was, he dared not violate the promise and keep the items, not giving them to the Dragon Clan.
If he truly didn't keep his promise, it would be equivalent to owing Xu Feng a karmic debt.
At that time, even if Xu Feng didn't react, the Heavenly Dao would first come to trouble him, Di Jun.
Even Saints try every possible way to sever karmic debts, let alone you, Di Jun, who isn't even a Saint yet?
You are merely the Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan. You may have strong destiny and not suffer misfortune, but what about the Demon Clan?
Your foundation lies with the Demon Clan. If something happens to the Demon Clan, let's see if you, the Demon Emperor, can still sit securely.
"Eastern Emperor Taiyi, you must not be complacent. Now, my brother and I have unified the Demon Clan and become its Demon Emperors, but the Demon Clan's destiny is not yet perfect. There are still some matters that we, brothers, need to plan for.
For the sake of the Demon Clan, my brother and I have spent a lot of time. Now, we should focus on our strength."
Seeing that Eastern Emperor Taiyi was a bit complacent, Di Jun had no choice but to admonish him, while also preparing the first batch of resources to be sent to the East Sea.
Di Jun decided to go himself for this matter.
Sending a subordinate would show disrespect to Xu Feng, the Dragon Emperor.
Moreover, the other party is a future Saint. Sending Eastern Emperor Taiyi would be an equal status, but Eastern Emperor Taiyi has a volatile temperament and is prone to rash actions that could ruin things.
Left with no choice, Di Jun could only choose to make the trip himself.
Focusing only on the Demon Clan wouldn't do; their brothers' strength also had to keep up, otherwise, how could they make countless Great Demons submit?
After instructing Eastern Emperor Taiyi to cultivate diligently, Di Jun personally took the items and left the Heavenly Court, entering the Great Desolation and heading straight for the East Sea.
Inside the Dragon Palace, Xu Feng, Nuwa, and Fuxi were discussing the Dao.
Xu Feng suddenly paused, met the gazes of Fuxi and Nuwa, and smiled:
"A guest has arrived."
"Fellow Daoist, please come in."
A guest?
Di Jun?
The brother and sister swept their divine senses and saw Di Jun standing above the East Sea.
With Xu Feng's permission, Di Jun entered the Dragon Palace.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist, on achieving the esteemed position of the Demon Clan's sovereign."
Xu Feng offered his congratulations to Di Jun, neither warmly nor coldly.
Di Jun's face was full of smiles as he walked into the main hall and said:
"Thank you for your auspicious words, Fellow Daoist. This time, I have come for that promise."
With that, Di Jun nodded to Nuwa and Fuxi, acknowledging them.
Nuwa and her brother also nodded in response.
"Why did Fellow Daoist need to make a trip personally? You could have just sent someone."
Xu Feng perked up, as someone was bringing him benefits.
Di Jun smiled without replying, then waved the sleeve of his golden robe, and countless heavenly treasures flew out.
They were piled up like mountains, making Nuwa and Fuxi feel a little numb.
For this Heavenly Court, the Demon Clan had truly invested heavily.
This was practically cutting off their own flesh.
It was also fortunate that the Demon Clan had so many members; if it were any other race, who could gather so many treasures?
One must know that there are countless races in the Great Desolation, but which race could compare to the Demon Clan in terms of numbers?
Perhaps only the Dragon Clan from ancient times could compare; other races were not qualified.
"Fellow Daoist is indeed a man of his word."
Xu Feng smiled and collected the items. With this batch of resources, the overall strength of the Dragon Clan would increase significantly.
However, he, Xu Feng, was not a selfless person.
To receive benefits, one needed to make contributions.
If you made no contribution, what benefits would he give you?
Do you want nothing?
He, Xu Feng, didn't expect the Dragon Clan to do anything major for him; what was most important now was to reproduce!!!
Diligently increasing the number of Dragon Clan members—those families that had many children would be considered to have made a contribution.
Only with merit came rewards; otherwise, no benefits would be yours.
"The items have been delivered, and I shall not stay long. The Heavenly Court still has many important matters to attend to. Three Fellow Daoists, farewell. We shall meet again someday at Zixiao Palace."
Di Jun was not a dithering person; once the items were delivered, he left immediately.
"This Di Jun is also decisive."
"How could he not be decisive? Don't let the Demon Clan's glory fool you; in reality, they have a pile of troubles behind the scenes, which he will have to enjoy."
"Oh, how do you mean?"
Nuwa and Fuxi immediately became interested.
At present, the Demon Clan was incredibly glorious in the Great Desolation, and with the help of many Great Demons, Di Jun shouldn't be that busy.
Otherwise, where would he find the time to cultivate and strengthen his own power?
Don't think that sitting in the position of Demon Emperor would make everything go smoothly.
If you don't have enough strength to suppress those unruly Great Demons, then let's see if your position as Demon Emperor can still be stable.
It seemed that everyone in the Great Desolation had been drawn to the Demon Clan, forgetting about the other protagonist of Heaven and Earth.
Xu Feng couldn't help but smile, raising his wine cup, taking a couple sips of spiritual wine, and tutting:
"Fellow Daoists' Daoist temple is on Mount Buzhou. Have you forgotten what lies beneath Mount Buzhou?"
"The Witch Clan?"
Fuxi and Nuwa were slightly surprised.
The emergence of the Demon Clan as a race was thanks to Demon Master Kunpeng creating the demon script.
But the Witch Clan was different; from their birth, they knew they belonged to the Witch Clan. While the Demon Clan was still fighting and devouring inner cores to grow stronger, the Witch Clan had already begun to form tribes and live in communities.
It was just that the Witch Clan's population was far less exaggerated than the Demon Clan's.
"Yes, it's the Witch Clan."
Xu Feng said:
"Fellow Daoists, don't forget, although the Witch Clan's numbers are not as vast as the Demon Clan's, they are not to be trifled with.
As the Witch Clan's population continues to grow, conflicts with the Demon Clan are bound to arise sooner or later, as the Witch Clan likes to hunt and eat members of the Demon Clan."
There might not be an issue in the short term, but over time, problems would certainly arise.
The Demon Clan already had bad tempers, and the Witch Clan was even more so. It was not an exaggeration to say they feared neither Heaven nor Earth.
A group of people who didn't even put Saints in their eyes—could you expect them to fear the Demon Clan?
Is that possible?
Fuxi's mouth twitched.
"Before, the Demon Clan members fought among themselves, each claiming a mountain as their own king. If they couldn't beat the Witch Clan, they would at most choose to move to another place, keeping their distance. But now that the Demon Clan is unified, the contradictions will surface."
"Hiss~~~~"
Just thinking about the Witch and Demon Clans clashing could lead to the outbreak of a great war.
Fuxi immediately gasped, startled by his own thoughts.
