Very quickly, Yang Jing and the others settled the gray mist cultivators in the area.

  However, they did not look that happy. Instead, they frowned and looked into the distance.

  The gray mist had erupted over there, and it had moved the whole Origins Realm. The cultivators that had been infected by the gray mist had gone crazy. Even the ones they had killed barely made a dent in the numbers.

  They knew very well that the cultivators there were not that strong. They were just small fries. The really strong cultivators would have already arrived at the place where the gray mist erupted.

  “Yang Jing, if we head there alone, we might be at a disadvantage,” Xiao Chengfeng said seriously.

  Even someone who liked to brag as much as he did had to face the cruel truth. The place the gray mist exploded would absolutely have existence even stronger than the Wisdom Pill Pavilion’s leader. Even though he had broken through to the Wisdom Dictator realm, he would not stand a chance.

  Furthermore, how many cultivators had been contaminated by the gray mist? There was no way to count their numbers!

  How could they face so many cultivators?

  After going through Blackie’s incident, he had become incredibly careful. He had caused Blackie to almost be harmed by the gray mist last time. Even thinking about it made him feel guilty.

  The gray mist could not be underestimated!

  “I know that. If we go over, we’d just be looking to die.”


  Yang Jing glanced at Xiao Chengfeng, saying, “Did you forget what Nanan said? She asked us to look for her if we were ever in a pinch. She really wants to take revenge for Blackie.”


  The last time, Blackie had been harmed to that degree, and everyone at Li Nianfan’s residence remembered it clearly. Nanan had purposely relayed a message to the Heavenly Palace. If something like that happened again, she wanted to be called over so they could take revenge for Blackie.

  “That’s right. Such a large matter has to be reported.” Xiao Chengfeng nodded.

  Yang Jing continued, “Other than relying on Nanan and the others, we should also make some preparations and invite more people!”


  After that, they split up.

  Xiao Chengfeng went to Li Nianfan’s residence to tell Nanan about the situation. Yang Jing went around recruiting warriors, preparing to make a move.

  Very quickly, the Divine Sword Mountain, the Yun clan, the Su family, and other forces that were close to the Heavenly Palace all gathered.

  However, their powers were not too great. Those who were below the second step of a Wisdom Elite were all rejected by Yang Jing.

  At that moment, a flash of light descended as Jiechi led a group of monks to the Heavenly Palace.

  Yang Jing raised an eyebrow, saying curiously, “Jiechi, why are you here? The monks behind you aren’t nearly as strong enough. Are you planning on coming with us yourself?”


  Compared to the Heavenly Palace, Buddhism did not participate in battles that much. Even though they had eaten with the expert a few times, the benefits they got were limited, and their cultivation was not that high.

  Even Jiechi was merely at the third stage of Wisdom Elite. That was thanks to the manual Li Nianfan had given them.

  Jiechi clasped his hands together as he shook his head with a smile. “I only came here this time to bring someone to you.”


  “Oh?”


  Yang Jing and the others were incredibly curious.

  “Big Lord Demon, come out.”


  Jiechi pointed behind him as Big Lord Demon walked out.

  Yang Jing looked up and raised an eyebrow. “You’re only a first-step Wisdom Elite?”


  That was too weak. He was only slightly better than cannon fodder.

  However, Yang Jing had a thoughtful look in his eyes. That person looked a little familiar.

  “He’s Big Lord demon. Back then, he caused havoc everywhere with Louhou. He’s also the only person the expert has shown mercy, too.”


  Jiechi looked down as he continued, “The expert spared his life for a certain reason that I can’t explain. You should understand yourselves.”


  Louhou?

  The only person the expert showed mercy to?

  Just that name was a heavy blow. It caused Yang Jing and the others to hesitate.

  The expert had always maneuvered everything under the heavens like a chess match. Everything was merely chess pieces to him. Someone like Big Lord Demon was not even worth being a sacrificial pawn. He should be dead. However, he somehow managed to survive for so long.

  Yang Jing’s eyes suddenly glinted as he said, “I remember now. When the seventh world first interacted with the other worlds, we suffered so many attacks from them. At the last moment, one of your disciples thought he was a hero and brought those from the outer world to the Fallen Immortal Mountain. That group completely perished! That person was Big Lord Demon!”


  Right after that, he remembered that it was not the first time Big Lord Demon had brought people to the expert and caused them to completely perish.

  Big Lord Demon was a Buddhist, and his cultivation level was not high. That was why Yang Jing barely registered his existence. After so long, Yang Jing could barely remember him.

  Only…


  Even though Big Lord Demon’s results were quite good, it did not really say much. Furthermore, Yang Jing felt like he was incredibly troublesome. How could he keep running to the expert every time he had any trouble? If he caused the expert any trouble, he would die!

  “Lord Erlang, I have records about Big Lord Demon here.”


  Taibang Jinxing walked over. The Heavenly Palace had recorded the affairs of every immortal. Their interactions with the expert were placed on incredibly high importance. Big Lord Demon was among them.

  When Taibai Jinxing looked through Big Lord Demon’s past, his expression changed. He looked at Big Lord Demon with a complicated expression, keeping a safe distance.

  Yang Jing took the records from Taibai Jinxing’s hands. Looking at it, he was stunned as well.

  Big Lord Demon’s first battle was not long after he escaped the Underworld. He had been sealed into the Purple Golden Gourd by Nanan, but was let off by the expert after that. His subordinates were all killed.

  After that, Big Lord Demon led Black Kirin to block the expert’s path, causing the Black Kirin to die.

  After that, Big Lord Demon appeared during the Grand Ceremony of Buddhism. That time, the Demon God behind him had not even been able to do anything when it died.

  After that, it was the Ghost King…


  It was failure after failure.

  Whoever that went with Big Demon Lord would always end up dying.

  Yang Jing put down the book and could not help but take a deep breath as he retreated a few steps.

  He exclaimed, “There’s actually such a horrifying person in this world!”


  He no longer dared to look down on Big Lord Demon. He was even treated Big Lord Demon as an incredibly dangerous figure.

  Even Cultivator Junjun looked at Big Lord Demon differently. He sincerely said at the important point, “The problem came from the first time he was released from the Purple Golden Gourd by the expert. He already turned into the expert’s chess piece then!”


  “That’s right. Looking at his path, Big Lord Demon had actually been incredibly important. If not for him, how could so many opponents have died? The Heavenly Palace managed to secure so many senseless victories because of him!”


  The Jade Emperor immediately nodded, already looking at Big Lord Demon differently.

  The expert’s plans really exceeded anyone’s imagination. Who could possibly imagine that he managed to craft a chess piece like Big Lord Demon!

  Jiechi said, “Now that such a big thing is happening, I feel like a killing machine as strong as Big Lord Demon should be mobilized.”


  Cultivator Junjun nodded deeply, “Big Lord Demon should be mobilized. He’s a miraculous soldier!”
