Listening to what Zhou Bai said, Si Yi Heavenly Monarch retorted angrily: "Zhou Bai! I'd rather die than let you succeed."
Zhou Bai's provocative voice ca again: "You're not willing to die. If you wanted to, you would have died long ago.
Most of you demons are creatures that prioritize survival. For survival... you can adapt to the environnt, compromise, isn't that right?"
Si Yi Heavenly Monarch's heart sank, but she knew the other party was right. Most demons, as long as they can survive, are willing to do anything. That survival instinct far exceeds that of any intelligent creature. It's ingrained in their bones, like Pi Li, who is just an exception.
"Si Yi, you're just a selfish woman willing to do anything to survive."
"Sacrifice yourself for others? That's not your style."
"Ever since you lured Pi Li Marshal out by letting possess you, there's been no turning back for you."
Si Yi Heavenly Monarch felt a stream of Primordial Spirit lightly caressing her hand, brushing over her black gauze clothing, playing with the bells on her wrist.
A chill surged from Si Yi Heavenly Monarch's heart as she struggled to speak: "Zhou Bai... what exactly do you want?"
Zhou Bai smiled and said: "Just reminding you of your current situation to prevent you from doing anything irrational."
"Rest assured, I only want to find a proper god to accompany in cultivation and temper my physical body. I won't do anything excessive."
Hearing this, Si Yi Heavenly Monarch sighed slightly in relief, because for the past few days, Zhou Bai indeed only had them attack him, seemingly just helping to temper his body. If it's just this... it seems endurable?
The conversation between Si Yi and Zhou Bai in Si Yi's sea of consciousness was not audible to Zuo Dao and Christina. They only worried whether Zhou Bai's actions would be discovered by the Heavenly Court.
Next, Zhou Bai controlled Si Yi Heavenly Monarch to search for Du Xing Heavenly Monarch in the Plague Departnt. But this ti, he waited for a short while before feeling a strong oppressive force descending from the sky as the aura of several Heavenly Court deities pressed down.
Xiang Tiandi stood outside and shouted: "Si Yi! Where has Pi Li Marshal gone?"
Zhou Bai controlled Si Yi Heavenly Monarch's Divine Body, approaching Xiang Tiandi step by step. Suddenly, his Primordial Spirit erged to try to control the opponent, but once the Primordial Spirit entered, he found that this 'Xiang Tiandi' exploded mid-air, shattering, revealing itself to be a clone.
In the Luotian Realm, Xiang Tiandi smirked slightly. Ever since he detected the unusual strength of Zhou Bai, he hadn't left his Luotian Realm. All appearances of him in the Material World were clones sent from the Luotian Realm, guarding against a possible sneak attack by Zhou Bai.
Xiang Tiandi's voice transmitted from the Luotian Realm: "Zhou Bai! It's indeed you. Have Si Yi Heavenly Monarch and Pi Li Marshal both fallen into your trap?"
Because the Heavenly Court is now weakened, surrounded by enemies, Xiang Tiandi worried about being ambushed. Recently, he tried to coordinate with other Thunder Departnt marshals to act together, avoiding solo actions.
This contact revealed that Pi Li Marshal was missing. Subsequent checks uncovered problems on Si Yi Heavenly Monarch's side, leading to an imdiate alert to the other seven deities, setting a trap to await the appearance of Si Yi and others, ready at any mont to deploy the Hunyuan Mountain River Array within Miluo Heavenly Palace.
Looking at the formation laid by the eight deities, Zhou Bai regretted internally: 'Xiang Tiandi's vigilance is too strong. I've only captured Si Yi, Pi Li, and Yan Zhen Monarch, and he's already noticed sothing amiss.'
anwhile, Xiang Tiandi shouted: "Zhou Bai, release Si Yi."
Zhou Bai looked helpless: "Xiang Tiandi, you've misunderstood. Si Yi Heavenly Monarch and the others volunteered to cultivate with . I haven't hard them."
Xiang Tiandi replied coldly: "Zhou Bai, if you're unwilling to let them go, don't bla us for desperate asures. The Supre Heavenly Venerate is our great enemy. Why are you not dealing with him but instead targeting us? Do you really want to favor the Supre Heavenly Venerate?"
Zhou Bai replied blandly: "Desperate asures?"
Du Xing Heavenly Monarch shouted: "Zhou Bai, you may be strong now, but not becoming an immortal god is your limit. Our cultivation will continue to recover, and who will be stronger or weaker in the future is still uncertain."
"Moreover, even if we can't deal with you now, how many humans in the four great cities can you save if we decide to kill them instead?"
Xiang Tiandi added: "Zhou Bai, with the great enemy present, the Supre Heavenly Venerate and forces of the previous Heavenly Court could attack anyti. This is not the ti for internal conflict. Release them imdiately, and we can forget this, uniting against the Heavenly Venerate."
After so bargaining between the two sides, the deities reluctantly agreed with Zhou Bai, taking the Kunpeng Spirit and three mutated weapons from the Heavenly Court's treasury, while Zhou Bai handed over Si Yi Heavenly Monarch and Pi Li Marshal.
Clearly, the deities were unaware of the terror of Zhou Bai's Rage Pattern and Anger Seed. They didn't know that even after returning Si Yi Heavenly Monarch and Pi Li Marshal, they remained under his control.
Listening to the bargaining, Si Yi Heavenly Monarch remained silent. Zhou Bai laughed and said: "You'll be free soon, Si Yi."
"Free?" Si Yi sneered: "What about the demonic technique you planted in ?"
"You don't say, I don't say, who knows?" Zhou Bai continued: "Or do you want the other deities to know you've forever beco mine? And have them lock you up?
Seal you? Study you endlessly? Completely distrust you? Let them see you as a pile of mud?"
Si Yi's face turned grim, without speaking, as she watched Zhou Bai's Primordial Spirit abruptly exit from her body, encapsulating the Kunpeng Spirit and three mutated weapons, flying away swiftly, leaving behind hearty laughter.
"Si Yi Heavenly Monarch, we have a long future ahead of us."
Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Si Yi's expression turned colder.
The nearby deities approached and inquired about her condition. She hesitated slightly in her heart but ultimately said nothing.
Si Yi Heavenly Monarch only thought secretly: 'Starting tonight, I'll lock myself away, not leaving the Heavenly Court until the demonic technique planted by Zhou Bai is fully eradicated. After all, this technique only compels to attack Zhou Bai; it's not uncontrollable.'
Next, the deities rushed into the Forbidden Land of the Plague Departnt, where Jiu Xiao Marshal lifted the limp Pi Li Marshal from the ground using Primordial Spirit power: "Pi Li? Are you alright?"
Du Xing Heavenly Monarch fud: "Zhou Bai, this scoundrel is too hateful! Why did we have to give him the Kunpeng Spirit and three mutated weapons? It was he who captured our people!"
Xiang Tiandi with a somber expression said: "The enemy is strong, we are weak, we have no choice. Even if he is bullying us, we can only endure temporarily.
Once our cultivation is restored and our combat strength surpasses his, then we might seek to settle the score. Moving forward, I suggest none of us leave the Luotian Realm. Everything brought into the Luotian Realm must be thoroughly inspected repeatedly before acceptance..."
