I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

"Then I will trouble the Great Demon Saint to escort her inside."

Gu Heng was at his wit's end.

He didn't trust Gu Ce, so naturally he wouldn't easily believe Luo Cang either. But as Luo Cang said, it would take at least four days to get to the Divine Refining Blood Sea. He didn't have that time. By the time he left the Myriad Dynasty Civilization, it had already taken more than a day.

Within three days, the Wanchao Civilization will surely be thrown into turmoil. If the plan changes, things could fall apart right now. The sooner he returns, the better.

As for whether Luo Cang can truly live up to his expectations, Gu Heng had no idea.

It's really frustrating to have no choice.

"I will do my best."

Luo Cang lowered his eyes to look at the cocoon, remained silent for a moment, and finally stopped his outstretched hand with the tremor of his inner instinct.

This blood cocoon is so divine.

"Although I don't know why Bai Mu followed you all the way, it can wait here for news."

"So you have someone to relay messages."

Gu Heng nodded.

Thank you.

Luo Cang's lack of response to the thanks was a silent dismissal.

Gu Heng knew that just as he reached the door, a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"and many more."

It's Luo Mei.

She stood by the window, the blue scale between her fingers nowhere to be seen.

She looked at Gu Heng, her expression complex and unreadable.

"you……"

Luo Cangyuan raised his eyes, a sharp light, unlike that of a snake or python, flashed in his vertical pupils, forcing Luo Mei to swallow her words back.

"never mind."

She turned her face away: "It's nothing, I'm sorry to bother you."

Gu Heng didn't ask any further questions and simply pushed open the door and left.

These two siblings were unusually awkward. Normally, demons are straightforward, so it's rare to see one so awkward.

Outside the Listening to Rain Pavilion, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Saint was nervously squatting on the stone steps.

Upon seeing Gu Heng emerge, it jumped up in a flash.

"How, how?"

"It's done."

Gu Heng patted the cat head in the middle.

"You stay here and be my contact. If Luo Cang has anything to say in the future, he will convey it to me through you."

"It really worked?"

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Saint looked surprised.

How come those two snake demons from the Luo family are so easy to talk to in front of humans?

Or did they, like it, simply succumb to this guy's power?

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Saint preferred the latter. It was always better to see others suffer than to experience it firsthand, not to mention that he had already experienced it. If those two hadn't suffered this hardship, he would have felt unbalanced.

"Here, take this. We can talk if you need anything."

Gu Heng tossed a Heavenly Transmission Stone to the Hundred-Eyed Demon Saint.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Saint put the sound transmission stone into his cat fur, squatted down, and blinked his six cat eyes repeatedly.

Will you come again in the future?

It asked the question cautiously.

"Will come."

Gu Heng took out the empty mirror.

He should go back.

On the other side of the Wanchao Civilization, a tough battle awaits him.

The mirror surface shimmered with a soft halo.

As the halo intensified, his figure gradually blurred in the light.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Saint stared blankly as Gu Heng disappeared, speechless.

The mirror that the man just pulled out looks so similar to some legendary treasure that I've heard about before.

I feel terrible, I can't remember what treasure it was!

They've been stuck down there for too long, and all three cats' heads have rusted!

……

Inside the Listening to Rain Pavilion.

Luo Mei stood by the window, looking at the gray fur ball squatting on the stone steps outside, scratching its ears and cheeks, looking upset and its fur standing on end for some unknown reason.

That little brother from the demon cat clan was really funny.

"Brother."

Luo Cang did not look at her.

Why didn't you let me ask just now?

Luo Cang continued to look down at the blood cocoon lying quietly on it, his gaze so deep it seemed he wanted to crawl into it at any cost.

"What do you want to ask?"

“Ask him…” Luo Mei paused, “Ask him where he got the demon god’s embryo from, and what his identity is.”

Luo Cangyuan did not answer.

a long time.

"You already know the answer."

Luo Mei remained silent.

She certainly knew.

The power contained within that blood cocoon was divinity, the power of the demon god's embryo!

In that great war across the heavens, the Demon Race Civilization Alliance merely followed the trend and did not actively participate in the war. After all, it was humans who started the war, and it was also humans who fought to the death and exhausted all their strength to drag the other side down from the heavens.

The immortal and Buddhist civilizations contributed greatly, and their strength far surpassed that of the demon civilization alliance.

Why should the demon race get involved in that ridiculous war in which humans spilled blood and lost their lives?

The dragon civilization did join the race quite voluntarily, but that was only because of personal grudges. Moreover, dragons have always been greedy, and their greed makes even humans sigh in despair.

However, the great war among the heavens was ultimately unavoidable.

Getting deeply involved will inevitably have consequences.

The theft of the demon god's embryo is a stain etched on the pillar of shame.

The sacred artifact, forged by the combined efforts of seventeen tribes, was a failed attempt, yet it still held ineffable significance. However, it was taken away by that person amidst a vast army.

As easy as taking something out of a bag, one enters a realm free of demons.

From that moment on, the words "Great Enemy of the Era" were etched into the memory of every powerful demon.

The Demon God's embryo is now here, inside the celestial demon cat brought by that mysterious human.

There is only one answer.

Luo Mei gripped the window frame tightly.

"If he really is that person, why would he come to beg us in person?"

Her voice was very low.

"With his strength, he could break into the Divine Blood Sea in the blink of an eye. Why would he need to bring any tokens or bother with us?"

There is no place in the world that an enemy of an era cannot go. Luo Mei knew very well the location of the holy temple that enshrined the Demon God Embryo. It was located within the Demon Clan Alliance, where at least half of the Great Demon Saints of the entire Demon Clan Civilization Alliance were located. Such a defensive force would probably require the personal presence of a god to contend with it.

Even for top-tier civilizations like the immortals and Buddhist sects, the strongest among them would have to fight quite fiercely to win.

However, the great enemy of the era could come and go at will, and no demon could stop him. Those who blocked his way were defeated in less than half a move. If he hadn't deliberately held back, the demon civilization alliance would have been completely destroyed in the war of the heavens.

After the event ends, everyone becomes food, to be ordered and eaten by others.

Luo Cangyuan did not answer.

He looked at the sleeping cat shadow inside the blood cocoon.

"I do not know."

Who in the world dares to claim they can fathom the thoughts of the Great Enemy of the Epoch?

Luo Cangshang dared not say that he had such courage and ability.

"However, Gu Ce is definitely involved with him. That guy once did his best to oppose the great enemy of the era, but now he has changed sides and is serving his old enemy. That's even more interesting."

“The Gu Ce I know doesn’t seem like that kind of person, unless something really happens to change his mind.”

Luo Mei remained silent for a long time.

"Then what should we do? Report to the Grand Alliance, or..."

"No need."

Luo Cangyuan lowered his eyes.

"In that sacrifice, our Heavenly Demon Python Clan gave up 30% of its members, thinking that in the end we would only get useless offspring that never hatched."

"The entire alliance went to great lengths to create it, and then worshipped it for countless years, yet it remained an inanimate object, showing no signs of anything unusual."

"Now it's alive."

He spoke in a flat tone, as if he were talking about an old story that had nothing to do with him.

"Now that the demon god's embryo has chosen a master, it is the time for destiny to unfold."

"That's enough."
