Chapter 326: Staying Alive Or Not Depends On My Capabilities

“Rascal, you’re actually in cahoots with the demon race. You’re really dead meat this time.”

Bai Dongsheng said leisurely after a long time.

With his strength, no one could do anything to him even if he killed Chen Chen. At most, he would kill some more demons to convince everyone else.

When he goes through Immortal Ascension in the future, he wouldn’t care about the opinions of these people.

Of course, he’d be glad to see this kid being careless with his speech.

Hearing this, Chen Chen sneered and ignored him. Instead, he looked at the demoness in front of him and asked helplessly, “What are you saving me for? I can’t clear my name regardless of what I do now anyway.”

“You saved me once, and I’m just returning the favor to you now. What does clearing your name have to do with me?” Yao Qing answered coldly.

Chen Chen was speechless after hearing that.

The Divine Ape Mountain fell into silence, and both the demon and human races were at a loss for words.

In this situation, it was neither right for them to make a move or stay put.

…

However, the situation didn’t last for long.

A few moments later, the clouds and weather in the sky began to change, and a terrifying might came surging over from afar. Immediately afterwards, several figures descended in the Divine Ape Mountain.

“Master…”

Yu Qiong yelled and instantly arrived in front of the clan master of the Jade Tripod Alchemy Clan.

The Haoran Sword Clan master and the Seven Lethal Demon Clan’s Demon Venerable were present too.

However, this is just the beginning. After a few more moments, several more figures descended. The current emperor of the great imperial dynasties also appeared in the Divine Ape Mountain.

Apart from the Demon Venerable of the Divine Dragon Clan who had already fallen, the others of the eight major demon clans were also present.

All of a sudden, the entire Divine Ape Mountain seemed to have become the center of heaven and earth while the surrounding clouds surged. The terrifying might also be swept towards the side like a wave.

Under such circumstances, even the Essence Soul realm cultivators were shivering, let alone the Nascent Soul realm and Core Formation realm cultivators. However, the pressure given off by those powerhouses made them feel as if they had plunged into ice and were completely immobile.

“Chen Chen, come here.”

Although the clan master of the Jade Tripod Alchemy Clan seemed to still be relaxed, he was rather majestic and domineering at the moment.

Hearing his words, Chen Chen smiled and thought about it, before flying towards the clan master of the Jade Tripod Alchemy Clan.

Seeing this, Bai Dongsheng’s gaze flickered, but he didn’t say anything.

The clan master of the Jade Tripod Alchemy Clan took a deep glance at Clan Master and said softly, “You’ve suffered.”

Chen Chen smiled awkwardly without saying anything to pretend to be generous.

He had already killed someone just now, he couldn’t just laugh it off.

The clan master of the Haoran Sword Clan simply looked at Bai Dongsheng coldly and asked, “Senior, are you really going to fall out with the four major clans? Chen Chen has done so much for the human race, if you attack him, what will those human cultivators who are fighting zealously to defend the human race feel?”

Bai Dongsheng shook his head.

He clipped. “Childish.”

The emperors of the four great imperial dynasties sneered.

‘What is humanity? Is it really that important?’

In the imperial dynasties, people tend to manipulate the human heart and exploit the mentality of others for selfish interests. However, regardless of how much they sacrificed, they still wouldn’t be able to attack experts that were at their peak.

That was the cold hard truth.

“Chen Chen has the Adversity-Overcoming Seal on his body, and he’s in a messy relationship with the demon race. If we kill him, the ancestor will be able to come out of seclusion to deal with the demons. As a senior member of the human race, can’t you tell which one is more important?”

The emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty questioned with a sneer.

The emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty at the side chimed in too.

“As existences who are at the peak of the human race, letting our emotions rule our heads is a foolish act. We’re not being heartless, but being in our current positions, we have to prioritize interests. Otherwise, a wrong decision will result in a great negative impact.”

The clan masters of the four major clans turned pale when they heard that, but while the two of them made some sense, they couldn’t bring themselves to do such things.

At this moment, Bai Dongsheng smiled lightly and said, “Juniors, let me kill him, and I promise to kill more than three Demon Venerables for you. Do you still not understand which one is more important?”

Hearing this, the Seven Lethal Demon Clan’s venerable flew into a rag and hollered, “Old man, don’t think you’re so great just because we call you Senior. It’s just the Void Refinement realm, we can step into it at any time.”

The clan master of the Void Spirit Clan sneered. “If everyone thinks like you, who else in our race will be willing to fight for the entire human race? When the time comes, everyone will be fighting each other with the only goal of ascending. In no time, the human race will be exterminated.”

Faced with these two people’s refutation, Bai Dongsheng did not get angry and said with a chuckle, “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as I attack at full power, the demon race might be exterminated completely, and when the time comes, we’ll no longer need to fight for the human race anymore. How can there be extinction in such a prosperous era?”

They rebutted each other, refusing to give in.

The demon experts were surrounding them quietly and watching with meaningful gazes.

The human race had always been known for their unity, but they didn’t expect that there would be such huge internal strife over an Essence Soul realm. They even argued in front of the demon race.

As the saying goes, dirty linen should not be washed in public. The Void Refinement realm cultivators were definitely aware of that logic, but they didn’t avoid it at all. Clearly, there was great discord within the human race.

Among the demons, the Demon Venerable of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan yawned when he saw that and said lazily, “Why don’t you two fight? I promise I won’t intervene.”

As soon as he said that, the other demon clan leaders chimed in.

“Yes, we won’t mess things up!”

“If it is inconvenient for you to fight because of our presence, that’ll be unnecessary. At most, we’ll leave now.”

“The Immortal Demonic Phoenix clan is willing to stop war for three days so that you humans can resolve your indifferences.”

The demons were all watching the gossip and wishing that the humans would get into a fight immediately.

Hearing the gloating words of the human cultivators below, his face turned flushed and he felt extremely ashamed.

Today… the entire human race is considered to have been humiliated.

Even when the demon race was having an internal strife, they did not reveal the fights between the Demon Courts and the eight major demon clans. They didn’t watch from the side either.

The masters of the four major clans and the emperors of the four great dynasties looked extremely sullen when they heard those derisive words.

Instead, Bai Dongsheng completely ignored it and pointed at Chen Chen while saying resolutely, “This person has the Adversity-Overcoming Seal and Heaven doesn’t tolerate his existence. So, I must kill him. You guys can protect him for a while, but can you protect him for life? Instead of letting this kid die during the Thunder Tribulation in the future, why don’t you fulfill mine and the human race’s wishes!?!”

The four clan masters were furious, especially the clan master of the Jade Tripod Alchemy Clan, whose aura began to become unstable.

The crowd of cultivators below also began to take sides, and some were also scolding each other.

The group of human elites started a dispute right in front of the mighty figures of the demon race.

The eyes of the clan masters of the eight major demon clans began to get brighter and brighter.

At this moment, a discordant voice spread throughout the sky above the Divine Ape Mountain.

“I have the Adversity-Overcoming Seal on me too. If you want to do justice, you can try hitting me.”

Hearing this, the experts of both clans began to quieten down.

Yao Qing turned around and looked at the gloating Demon Venerables. He said coldly, “Do you want to kill me, to spare yourselves the suffering of the tribulation?”

“No, no…”

“Lord Demon God, don’t crack such jokes…”

“That has never crossed our minds!”

Hearing these words, Yao Qing once again looked at Bai Dongsheng and said contemptuously, “You’re just a bully who is afraid of the strong and bully the weak. Why are you taking the moral high ground?”

Bai Dongsheng could no longer stay calm after hearing that. The killing intent in his eyes darted out and he exclaimed, “I’ll kill you sooner or later!”

…

Seeing that the situation was about to develop into a huge mess, Chen Chen stood out and saluted the clan masters of the four major clans with a somewhat melancholic smile.

“Thank you, Seniors, but given the current situation, I’m afraid we can’t wait any longer. These nobodies are struggling to survive, but I can’t court death. Instead of embarrassing the entire human race here, I’d rather leave on my own. Seniors, from now onwards, I won’t meddle with the affairs of the human race. Whether I survive or die, shall depend on my own capabilities.”
