Although Di Jun was undeniably powerful, his strength wasn't enough to make Ye Tian fear him. At this mont, Ye Tian clearly held the upper hand in their battle. There was no need for him to worry at all.
"Di Jun, I advise you to stop now. If you're willing to back down at this mont, I'll gladly let you go. I can promise you—I won't tell anyone about what happened here today."
"Ye Tian, why? Why is it that no matter how hard I try, I'm still no match for you?"
Di Jun's heart was heavy with frustration. He had been training diligently for a long ti, hoping to strengthen himself and lead the demon race to prosperity. Yet, despite all his efforts, he couldn't even defeat this man in front of him.
"I can see how upset you are, but sotis, frustration alone can't solve the problem. Continuing like this is aningless. I suggest you stop before it's too late," Ye Tian advised calmly.
Di Jun, like a balloon that had suddenly lost all its air, lowered his hands in defeat. He realized that continuing this fight was pointless. Looking at Ye Tian, he sighed deeply. "Ye Tian, you really are incredible. I admit it—I'm not your match. It seems surpassing you is impossible for ."
Seeing Di Jun in such a state, Ye Tian couldn't help but feel a twinge of sympathy. "Who says it's impossible to surpass ? I'm not invincible."
"But I've been cultivating for so long and still can't beat you. How could I possibly defeat the Jade Emperor?" Di Jun replied bitterly.
Pfft!
Ye Tian nearly burst out laughing. He hadn't expected Di Jun to say that. "What did you just say? Are you seriously comparing to the Jade Emperor? So, because you can't beat , you think you can't beat him either? Are you saying the Jade Emperor is stronger than ?"
"Of course! The Jade Emperor's strength is far beyond yours. If I can't even defeat you, there's no way I could challenge him. Without defeating the Jade Emperor, revitalizing the demon race is nothing but a pipe dream!"
"…I'm speechless."
Ye Tian was truly at a loss for words. After a mont of silence, he finally said, "Do you really want to beco stronger? If you do, I can help you. Sure, even with my help, you won't be able to surpass , but you could stand a chance against the Jade Emperor."
Di Jun frowned. "What do you an by that?"
"What I an is, I had so… disagreents with the Jade Emperor recently, so our relationship isn't exactly friendly. If you truly want to defeat him and revive the demon race, I can help you. Train under for a while, and I believe you'll gain the strength needed to take him down."
Di Jun burst out laughing. "You really expect to believe that? I saw the Golden List Livestream—you couldn't even beat the Jade Emperor yourself! And now you want to help do it?"
"I held back during that fight," Ye Tian replied flatly. "After all, he is the Jade Emperor, so I had to give him so face. But you? You don't need to hold back. If I train you properly, you'll have a real shot at defeating him."
Di Jun's expression shifted as he processed Ye Tian's words. "Are you serious?"
"I am," Ye Tian confird. "But you have to trust . If you truly want to defeat him, then follow . I can help you achieve that dream—to take down the Jade Emperor."
For a mont, Di Jun's heart raced with excitent. For so long, he had dread of surpassing the Jade Emperor. If Ye Tian could really help him achieve that… how could he refuse?
"You can really help do this?"
"I wouldn't say it if I didn't an it. Trust ."
"…Alright. I'll believe you. Let's go."
"Then co with now."
Ye Tian waved his hand, leading Di Jun away. They arrived at a secluded cave, and Di Jun glanced around, puzzled. "Where are we?"
"This will be your secluded training ground. I'll guide you here until you're strong enough to defeat the Jade Emperor."
Di Jun was skeptical. "And why should I believe you?"
Without answering, Ye Tian pulled out a book and tossed it to Di Jun. As soon as Di Jun caught it, the contents flooded into his mind—an astonishing cultivation technique unlike anything he had ever seen.
"This… This technique is unbelievable! If I master it, my strength could multiply several tis over!"
Di Jun was stunned. He never expected Ye Tian to offer him sothing so powerful. "Why are you helping like this? There's nothing in it for you."
"Who says there's nothing in it for ?" Ye Tian smirked. "The Jade Emperor disrespected today. Helping you grow stronger is my way of teaching him a lesson. Understand now?"
Di Jun finally saw Ye Tian's true motive and couldn't help but smile. "So that's why you're willing to help …"
