Chapter 238 I must have misheard you just now.
After leaving Zhou Mountain, Di Jun and his group rushed to the dojos of many patriarchs without stopping.
However, to Di Jun and the others' great disappointment, despite their tireless efforts and many hardships in finally arriving at the temple of the patriarchs, they not only failed to see the patriarchs in person, but also failed to catch a glimpse of the attendants who were usually responsible for receiving visitors.
What Di Jun and the others didn't know was that the current group of ancestors...
Apart from one person who was busy at home, the rest of them were either working overtime or training disciples.
Who has time to bother with you?
Moreover, you carry such heavy karma, hence your dark complexion.
Given this appearance, the ancestors were naturally even less willing to get involved with it.
Fortunately, Di Jun and the others were mentally prepared for this outcome, so even though they were inevitably a little disappointed, Di Jun led everyone to respectfully bow in the direction of the temple to show their respect and reverence for the ancestors.
After all, the Heavenly Court banquet was imminent, and they had important responsibilities, so they could not linger here for too long.
It's time to go back.
Meanwhile, in the Demon Realm, in Rahu's palace...
Hong Yuan sat cross-legged on the world-renowned twelfth-grade black lotus of destruction with a calm and composed demeanor.
Not far from him stood a figure, none other than Luo Hou, who had been beaten so badly that his face was bruised and swollen.
At this moment, Luo Hou looked frustrated and resentful, especially as he stared at a huge pig's head.
Rahu was so angry he wanted to die.
Rahu did not actually not want to erase the scars.
But no one knows what method Hong Yuan used, because even a Grand Luo Golden Immortal like himself couldn't erase the traces left by Hong Yuan for a while.
If the people under the demon race were to see their once high and mighty Demon Ancestor in this state, I wonder what they would think?
Hong Yuan looked at Luo Hou with a leisurely smile, and teased, "Luo Hou, you've lost this time. Shouldn't you agree to my conditions?"
As Luo Hou felt Hong Yuan's rather mocking smile, his face turned pale and then purple.
But in the end, he still managed to utter a hoarse sentence.
"I understand! This Demon Ancestor will not make a move! But Hong Yuan, you must immediately erase all these damned traces for me, or where will this Demon Ancestor put his face?"
Upon hearing this, Hong Yuan's eyes widened slightly. He leaned closer to Luo Hou and asked with some confusion, "Isn't this fine? He's still very handsome!"
After saying that, Hong Yuan deliberately looked Luo Hou up and down, his eyes full of mockery.
"Hongyuan!!!" Luo Hou roared angrily.
Hearing Luo Hou's roar, Hong Yuan's face showed surprise. Pointing to his face, he asked in confusion, "Were you just yelling at me?!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Hou suddenly felt much more guilty.
“Hong Yuan, you know I have a naturally loud voice, I wasn’t yelling at you…”
Hearing this, Hong Yuan smiled and said, "I knew it! Luo Hou, you are my dearest friend and relative, how could you yell at me?! Besides, our duel was invited by you, my dear friend, how could you be dissatisfied with me? I must have misheard you!"
Seeing this, Luo Hou breathed a sigh of relief, then hesitated for a moment, pointed to his bruised and swollen face, and asked somewhat weakly, "Then Hong Yuan, look at my face, the face of this Demon Ancestor?"
But just as Rahu finished speaking...
Hong Yuan's face instantly darkened, and he looked somewhat ferocious, his eyes fixed on Luo Hou.
"You...just...just...yelled at...me?!"
Luo Hou: "..."
Luo Hou wanted to curse at this moment. He finally understood that Hong Yuan had no intention of healing his injuries.
Damn it, a dignified Daoist master is resorting to all sorts of unreasonable and unruly behavior.
Is this justified? !
However, Hong Yuan was right. It was his own fault for asking Hong Yuan to fight him.
Thinking of this, Luo Hou couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
However, he didn't regret asking Hong Yuan to fight him; rather, he regretted not letting Hong Yuan suppress his cultivation to the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal!
But who would have thought that he, a dignified second-level Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal, would be no match for a first-level Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal?
Damn it!
At that moment, Hong Yuan and Luo Hou also sensed something.
They glanced at each other, then each wore a wry, enigmatic smile.
"Luo Hou, it's your turn to take action, but you should also know your limits and not put too much pressure on that Di Jun. He is still useful to me!" Hong Yuan said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Luo Hou couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow for Di Jun.
Everyone else thought that Hong Yuan, this so-called Dao Venerable, was the most detached and indifferent person in the prehistoric world, and that he was indifferent to everything. But only they knew that the most playful person in the prehistoric world was actually this supreme Dao Venerable.
Don't you see what kind of people have become around Hong Yuan after spending so much time with him?
Even he himself admitted that he had been greatly tainted by Hong Yuan.
But Luo Hou only thought these words in his heart. If he actually said them out loud, he would probably get beaten by Hong Yuan again.
Luo Hou, with a slight smile, slowly nodded: "This Demon Ancestor understands!"
But just as Rahu was about to manifest before the demons, he suddenly remembered something and hurriedly wrapped himself in an extremely dense demonic aura.
Luo Hou dared not be careless in the slightest. He carefully checked whether the demonic energy around him was thick enough to completely cover the injuries on his face.
He checked again and again until he was absolutely sure that everything was correct before his anxious heart finally calmed down a little.
At this moment, in a corner of the Demon Realm, Jieyin and Zhunti stood facing each other, silently gazing at one another.
After a moment of silence, Zhunti sighed heavily, his face full of sorrow, and said to Jieyin beside him:
"Brother, we should also consider how to continue our breakthrough. The Demon Ancestor is preventing us from entering the Primordial World to eliminate karmic obstacles. Although we don't know what the Demon Ancestor wants, without a source of merit, our cultivation speed will slow down."
"Moreover, as you know, the Primordial Emperor Jun was born at the same time as us, but now he has become a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal, as has his brother Taiyi."
"Not only that, Di Jun is now the ruler of the Heavenly Court, in charge of the thirty-six heavens, and has countless magical treasures in his hands. As for us, although we have taken a Hunyuan Golden Immortal as our master, we are only at the mid-stage of the Daluo Golden Immortal realm, and we only have one or two high-grade innate spiritual treasures in our hands."
At this point, Zhunti suddenly paused, his gaze seemingly casually sweeping across Jieyin's face, as if trying to ascertain Jieyin's thoughts.
After confirming that Jieyin seemed to have truly taken his words to heart, Zhunti slowly shook his head, feigning a look of deep emotion and helplessness, and sighed deeply, saying:
"Alas... If my brother and I continue like this, the gap between us and others will only widen! If we were in the prehistoric world, we could probably get a share of the many treasures of the Thirty-Six Heavens. If Di Jun could establish the demon race, why couldn't my brother and I? It's just a pity that we are not in the prehistoric world, and we have missed this opportunity!"
