Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon!-Chapter 653 A Big Demon

The Son of the Fate Energy, Zhang Ziyu, was deeply engrossed in his persona. In just a few short hours, he had rationalized everything from beginning to end.

The Northern Demon Emperor had repeatedly oppressed the Southern Region, and the White Emperor, bearing the humiliation, had to remain patient, not daring to act rashly. But Yue Wuxia, as an Emperor Son, had no such scruples.

Therefore, Yue Wuxia, with lone bravery, had ventured into the Northern Border and slain the Demon Emperor.

Along the way, a certain Chen Pingping had tried every means to stop him, but alas, he simply couldn't hold Yue Wuxia back.

After their return, the White Emperor was quite annoyed, even considering suppressing Chen Pingping. That was the main reason for his displeasure.

However, since Chen Pingping was Yue Wuxia's underling, the White Emperor didn't dare to act recklessly either.

After slaying the Demon Emperor, Yue Wuxia had suffered grievous injuries, leaving a terrible hidden ailment within him. Now, he had dispatched Chen Pingping to find medicine.

Mm! It all made perfect sense.

Zhang Ziyu chuckled. Since Chen Pingping wasn't Yue Wuxia's admirer but his underling, then… logically, this Chen Pingping could also be considered *my* underling, right?

He patted his chest and said with a laugh, "Little brother, rest assured. With your big brother looking out for you, you can strut across the lands of the Nine Heavens without a problem."

Chen Pingping: "..."

Zhang Ziyu said confidently, "No need for the long face. Cheer up! A mere task like finding medicine isn't a big deal when you have your big brother, right?"

With his status as the Son of the Fate Energy, wouldn't finding medicine be a piece of cake? All he needed was to determine the direction.

Zhang Ziyu asked with a smile, "Oh, by the way, where are we heading now?"

"The Northern Border."

"The Northern Border? Is there medicine there?" Zhang Ziyu asked curiously.

"No!" Chen Pingping shook his head. "I have a junior martial sister there who might be in serious trouble, so I came to check on her."

Zhang Ziyu smiled. Oh? Trouble?

The young master of the Ancient Family, the Son of the Fate Energy—when these two identities combined, they equated to two words: "terrifying."

Previously, in Monster Emperor City, a misunderstanding had prevented him from demonstrating his strength.

Now he was out with Yue Wuxia's underling, and they'd encountered trouble. Wasn't this a sign that an opportunity had arrived? Helping him handle this trouble would be a roundabout way of showcasing myself to Yue Wuxia… Brilliant! This young master is truly unparalleled in intelligence.

He looked up and said with a laugh, "Little brother, relax. Your big brother will take care of this for you. No matter how many opponents there are, none are as strong as my Ancient Family. Besides, if I, your big brother, merely mention my status as the Son of the Fate Energy, the entire Northern Border will tremble. Rest easy."

Another day filled with overflowing self-confidence.

Another day to display his brilliant talent.

Not waiting for Chen Pingping to respond, Zhang Ziyu strode forward, eager to set foot in the Northern Border.

Behind him, Chen Pingping wore a peculiar expression.

Jiang Ni'er leaned over and whispered, "He seems to have some serious issues."

"Alas!" Chen Pingping sighed. "If I'm not mistaken, he should possess 'Fate Energy.'"

Jiang Ni'er nodded. "I understand. We'll find a chance to kill him and seize the Fate Energy."

Chen Pingping's expression darkened. "No, Fate Energy wouldn't follow someone with mediocre aptitude. So, the Fate Energy isn't on him."

Jiang Ni'er had a sudden realization. So, we still have to go to Huangzhou?

"Correct!" Chen Pingping said. "Secondly, don't always resort to killing. We have no quarrel with him, so why kill him?"

"So?"

Chen Pingping smiled faintly. This fellow has been touched by Fate Energy, so his luck has been incredibly good these past few years. He must have many valuable items on him. Perhaps… we can make use of him. Oh… we can befriend him.

"..."

Yes, that's right. Befriend him!

Chen Pingping continued, "Our Wuji Sect has always persuaded others with virtue; we would never do something so coercive. Do you understand?"

Jiang Ni'er nodded like a pecking chick. "I understand."

"Even if we want the Fate Energy, it must be through an equivalent exchange. Don't act recklessly," Chen Pingping admonished.

"Yes, an equivalent exchange," Jiang Ni'er echoed. "But what if he doesn't agree?"

This? Chen Pingping glanced sideways at her. "Reason with him. Appeal to his emotions and logic."

Jiang Ni'er fell silent.

According to the rules of the Qingfeng lineage, 'persuading with virtue' probably meant overpowering them with martial force. And 'appealing to emotion and logic' meant: if they don't agree? Then beat them up. Beat them one by one, and if that doesn't work, a whole group joins in.

「Several hours later.」

The group arrived at the Northern Border. Zhang Ziyu gazed out over the land and sighed. Is this the land my woman fought to conquer?

He raised his head, surveyed it carefully, then scoffed. It doesn't look like much.

Whether it was the Southern Region or the Northern Border, the geographical conditions were extremely poor, as was the environment. Many areas were barren and devoid of life.

Therefore, to the Son of the Fate Energy from Huangzhou, such barren lands were hardly worth mentioning.

Furthermore, in Mr. Zhang's eyes, barrenness implied a lack of powerful cultivators. With the Demon Emperor already fallen, the Northern Border seemed even more pathetic.

Zhang Ziyu squinted, a faint smile playing on his lips. With my current strength, plus the few Saint Kings behind me, I should be able to sweep through the Northern Border, right? This time, it should be a sure thing, shouldn't it?

Soon after, they arrived at Dayan, the ancient battlefield.

Even though several months had passed since the great battle concluded, a terrifying aura still permeated the air—heavy and oppressive. Scenes of devastation were everywhere, stretching for tens of miles…

Crumbling walls and rubble, a scene of utter desolation, stretched as far as the eye could see…

Zhang Ziyu and his entourage were dumbstruck by the sight. Tumultuous emotions surged within their hearts, leaving them unsettled for a long time.

Viewed from high above, the entire battlefield probably radiated outwards for a million miles. Over ninety percent of its mountains and rivers had already collapsed, transformed into a vast expanse of ruins.

All signs of life had vanished; it was utterly desolate.

They stared wide-eyed in disbelief. For a moment, it was as if they could see that past battle—a confrontation so shocking it reverberated through the Heavens and myriad worlds.

"Too incredible!" Zhang Ziyu exclaimed repeatedly. "Truly worthy of being my woman! This battle, slaying the Demon Emperor, is enough to be recorded in history!"

Jiang Ni'er suppressed a smile. The one who actually slew the Demon Emperor has been right in front of you all along. If you knew the truth, wouldn't your eyes pop out from shock?

Chen Pingping, on the other hand, was relatively calm.

Zhang Ziyu looked at Chen Pingping. "Hey! See that?"

Chen Pingping remained silent.

"My woman…" Zhang Ziyu pointed to the ruined battlefield and chuckled. "This is her accomplishment. Such a peerless woman—only this young master is worthy of her!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Indeed," Chen Pingping nodded. "We should be going."

"What's the rush?" Zhang Ziyu wanted to observe for a while longer, to imagine the battles of the past. A pang of regret struck him…

If only he had entered the Southern Diaspora sooner, he might have witnessed this earth-shattering battle with his own eyes.

Not long after, the cry of a Demon Bird echoed from the distant sky. Moments later, a shadow fell upon the group.

It was a powerful Demon Bird, incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, it reached their area, casting a vast shadow from high above.

Liu Dayao's face turned pale, and his voice trembled. "Young Master, it's a Great Demon!"
