Primordial World: Big shots are all my friends-Chapter 876 - 800: Hurry Up and Flatter Me

"Cannot attack proactively, I understand!" The questioning Demon Venerable sat back in his original seat, his body shrouded in demonic qi, his gaze directed at Stone Demon Lv Yue, exceptionally cold.

"Great Elder, quickly start the second round."

"That’s right! Great Elder, I want to suppress the world."

"Among the Demon Venerables of the world, I should be revered above all!"

...

The numerous fearless Demon Venerables began to clamour, looking at the surrounding Demon Venerables with a deadly intent.

Illusion Peach Demon Venerable respectfully bowed, calling out sharply, "With the Sect Hierarch above, the second stage of the first Magic Tournament of the world is about to begin.

Please, bestow the title of Star Lord, Sect Hierarch."

"Heavenly Gang Thirty-Six Stars, the victor of the next round shall be the Heavenly Slaughter Star Demon." A mighty voice echoed in the void.

"Receive the Dharma Decree!"

Illusion Peach Demon Venerable stood up, unfolded his fan, and loudly proclaimed, "By the order of the Sect Hierarch, the second round of the first Magic Tournament of the world begins, the victor shall be the Heavenly Slaughter Star Demon.

Those willing to guard the stage, please step onto the arena."

Countless demonic shadows simultaneously rushed towards the arena, swift as shooting stars.

Boom~ A ripple emanated from the continent, causing over ten Demon Venerables to be simultaneously ejected, stepping repeatedly in the void, unwillingly looking at the Void Continent.

On the continent, only the two Demon Venerables who first set foot remained.

...

In the void, the black veil of the Chariot drew aside, revealing Bai Jin with her smoky eye makeup inside.

"The second round has begun, the Magic Tournament has already taken shape."

Buddha Ancestor Wutian sighed, "Emperor Gouchen is indeed Emperor Gouchen, even in the Demon Realm, your brilliance cannot be concealed."

Kui Gang Dharma Ancestor immediately asked, "How did you manage this?"

Bai Jin smiled and said, "That’s a secret." Should I say it was thanks to the Taoist Ancestor’s guidance?

"Haha~ The Emperor only just arrived in the Demon Realm and already has such secrets, truly remarkable." No need to guess, it’s surely related to that suddenly appearing Star Core.

"Thanks to Your Majesty, the Heavenly Demon King, and Buddha Ancestor Wutian for presiding over this first Magic Tournament of the world in the Demon Realm."

Kui Gang Dharma Ancestor’s expression shifted, immediately asking, "Where is the Sect Hierarch going?"

"To Illusion Sea to condense the Star Core!"

Kui Gang Dharma Ancestor immediately laughed, "I too am somewhat interested in how the Sect Hierarch condenses the Star Core. I wonder if the Emperor would mind me accompanying you to protect you." Whether you mind or not, I’m going; the method to reshape the Star Domain, I’d like to learn it too.

Kui Gang Dharma Ancestor fixed his gaze on Bai Jin.

Bai Jin smiled and said, "With Buddha Ancestor Wutian here, naturally it can be done. I’m just concerned if Great Leiyin Demon Venerable takes most of the Star Demon positions, other Demon Clans might complain, saying Wutian Demon Ancestor is partial." His gaze turned to Buddha Ancestor Wutian, Jin Naluo, stop him for me.

Buddha Ancestor Wutian, indifferent, said, "Who dares have complaints? In the Demon Realm, Great Leiyin Temple is the strongest indeed."

Great Leiyin Temple is the strongest? Kui Gang felt a surge of anger, retorting, "Wutian, compared to me, you’re just a junior."

"In the Demon Realm, rank isn’t determined by seniority." Wutian Demon Ancestor’s expression remained calm.

"The Dark Abyss is the strongest!"

Ha ha~

Sky Demon King Kui Gang hesitated for a moment. From now on, it seems the Star Demon holds the fate of the stars. During the balance of power among Demon Kings, the Star Demon might even influence the Demon Realm’s future course. If Great Leiyin Temple indeed secures most Star Demon positions, won’t the Dark Abyss be utterly disadvantaged later on?

Should Great Leiyin Temple’s Demon Venerables outshine the Dark Abyss Demon Clans in this tournament, even I would be overshadowed by Buddha Ancestor Wutian. Never mind fairness claims by Buddha Ancestor Wutian, there’s no fairness among Demons in the Demon Realm. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Bai Jin smiled and asked, "Since Buddha Ancestor Wutian fears no criticism, does Sky Demon King wish to join me?"

Sky Demon King Kui Gang looked at Wutian Demon Ancestor, then at Bai Jin, suddenly laughing, "Haha~ I was just joking with the Sect Hierarch! With your strength, where’s the need for my protection? I’ll stay here with Buddha Ancestor Wutian to preside over the first Magic Tournament of the world! I’ll leave the matter of condensing the stars to the Emperor."

"Then shall I go?"

"Go on! Go on quickly!"

Bai Jin’s figure twisted slightly, instantly traversing time and space, disappearing.

...

Bai Jin emerged from a space ripple, his expression changed; this isn’t Illusion Sea, it’s inside a palace. How did I end up here? Could my passage through space have been disrupted? Who apart from the Demon Ancestor in the Demon Realm could interfere like this?

A myriad of thoughts surfaced in Bai Jin’s mind, hurriedly making a respectful bow, "Greetings Demon Ancestor!"

"Haha~" A hearty laughter rang out.

Demon Ancestor Luo Hou appeared in the prime seat, face filled with a contented smile, saying, "Rise, no need for such ceremony. You are now a great contributor to the Demon Sect."

Bai Jin stood up, humbly said, "I dare not accept such praise; it was all thanks to the strategic foresight of Demon Ancestor, I merely did a little."

"Haha~" Demon Ancestor Luo Hou laughed heartily, "No need for tension or undue humility with me.

Here, things are different from those so-called righteous paths in the Three Realms. With me, loyalty matters most, your contributions won’t go unnoticed."

Loyalty? First time encountering a Saint speaking of loyalty, quite unaccustomed indeed!

Bai Jin smiled and said, "Then I owe thanks to Demon Ancestor."

Demon Ancestor scrutinized Bai Jin, saying, "Summoning you here, there’s something unclear I need you to clarify, to resolve some doubts."

"Please, Demon Ancestor, speak!" Bai Jin slightly bent over, a smile on his face, full of respect.

Luo Hou Demon Ancestor asked directly, "Why help me restore the Star Domain? What’s the hidden reason?"

Bai Jin slightly raised his head, astonished, "Wasn’t this your task for me, Demon Ancestor?" What now, why is the Demon Ancestor not following usual convention? Shouldn’t he be overjoyed now? Why suddenly inquire about hidden reasons? Time to test my acting skills, quickly adjusting my mindset.

"If I task you, must you follow? You are a third generation disciple of the Mysterious Sect, and aiding my Star Domain restoration is a betrayal of Hong Jun, aren’t you afraid?"

"Reporting to Demon Ancestor, though I’m a third generation disciple, I’m not familiar with the Taoist Ancestor, haven’t even met him. Besides, I’m utterly admiring of you, Demon Ancestor."

Luo Hou’s brow twitched, surprised, "Admire me, what do you admire about me?" In the Primordial Three Realms, wasn’t I portrayed by the Mysterious Sect as a complete loser, Bai Jin actually admires me?

In the Primordial World, upon my birth I was supreme of the Demon Path. Most of my followers were driven by fear.

Later, after failing in the Primordial World, I established the Demon Realm in the void, where beings are mere ants, only Kui Gang and Wutian are noticeable, toward them I felt more admiration. Generally, they were silent, saying mostly "Yes!" "Understood!" "Respect the Dharma Decree!" or other such things.

Daring to speak of admiring me, Bai Jin is the first since Pangu’s creation of the world, instantly touching a strange part of my heart. The flattery indeed feels nice!

Luo Hou Demon Ancestor’s expression remained unchanged, saying, "Why don’t you elaborate on how you admire me? I detest deception." If you know how to speak, say more; if not, just make it up.
