1242: Chapter 1242: Master of the Demonic Path 1242: Chapter 1242: Master of the Demonic Path “The weak bla the heavens and others, the strong rely solely on their own power,”
Su Chengyu said coldly to the person in front of him.
However, Lin Ran’s face bore a mocking expression as he retorted, “Rely on your own power?
Do you really have the nerve to say that you climbed up step by step on your own?”
Su Chengyu did not counter, instead, he asked, “What about you?
Born into the Lin Family?
You already have more resources than the vast majority of people.
Ultimately, it’s just your insatiable greed.”
“Shut up!
What do you even count as!”
A flash of murderous intent in Lin Ran’s eyes passed, and Su Chengyu imdiately felt the grip on his body tighten.
A mouthful of blood rose, but this ti, Su Chengyu forcefully suppressed it.
Lin Ran sneered at this scene, “Your body is sturdier than I thought.
You’re not just a Nascent Soul, are you?
Or do you still have so other tricks up your sleeve?”
Su Chengyu’s gaze fell on Lin Ran, squinting as he said, “So what exactly do you want from ?
Your original plan wasn’t this, was it?”
“Smarter than I thought,”
Lin Ran murmured, then stood up and walked to the center of the council hall, his gaze sweeping over the gathered mbers of the demon elimination council families.
“My initial target was only these fools.
The Demon Elimination Council?
Ridiculous!
The revival of our Demonic Path and the sweeping montum cannot be stopped by anyone!
Since you all wish to eliminate demons, naturally, we must make you realize the consequences of opposing our Demonic Path from the very start!”
With a snap of Lin Ran’s fingers, two figures floated up among the crowd, like Bei Tang Qing, emitting a strong demonic qi that spread around.
Bei Tang Rung observed this scene with narrowing pupils, “Three Dao Heart Demon Seeds?”
The power of the Dao Heart Demon Seed was imnse; it was like a ticking ti bomb, posing a great threat to ordinary cultivators.
Even with Dongxu cultivators as protectors, those with insufficient strength could easily be infected by the demonic qi and fall into the Demonic Path.
The Beitang Family had suffered greatly because of the Dao Heart Demon Seeds in the past; he knew very well that three Dao Heart Demon Seeds were enough to drive everyone here, except those in the Hollow Realm, into the Demonic Path!
Feeling increasingly uneasy, Bei Tang Rung contemplated deeply; the situation had completely escaped her control.
At this mont, she had to consider taking action herself to destroy the Dao Heart Demon Seeds to ensure everyone’s safety.
However, as soon as she thought to act, Lin Ran’s gaze turned toward her, “Bei Tang Rung, I know you have a way to eliminate the Dao Heart Demon Seeds, but I promise that if you show any sign of action, I will imdiately detonate these three Dao Heart Demon Seeds.”
Bei Tang Rung frowned deeply, “If you dare do this, you won’t escape either!”
Besides him, there were three Dongxu Realm elders from the Nine Ancient Tribes present.
Even if only those four remained in the end, Bei Tang Rung was confident that she could kill Lin Ran.
However, Lin Ran was unmoved by the threat, “If I dare to do this, do you think I care about my own life?”
Bei Tang Rung fell silent; she understood best how mad those of the Demonic Path could be.
They were not only ruthless but also acted without regard for consequences, and often illogically.
Still, Su Chengyu found a loophole and whispered, “You said this was your original plan, so did you change your plans?”
The goal was to inflict a heavy blow on the Demon Elimination Council, which naturally involved hiding in the shadows and detonating the three Dao Heart Demon Seeds directly.
A sudden explosion, even Bei Tang Rung would definitely not react in ti, and there would be no other possibility for those present but to fall into the Demonic Path.
Yet Lin Ran’s actions now clearly did not make sense.
Lin Ran’s gaze slowly fell on Su Chengyu, “That is because of you, of course.”
“?”
Su Chengyu opened his mouth in confusion, and the gaze of the Nine Ancient Tribes and the great noble families also instantly focused on him.
“I have never had any contact with the Demonic Path.”
Su Chengyu spoke coldly, imdiately clarifying his relationship with the Demonic Path, but the next second Lin Ran said.
“It doesn’t matter what you say, I can sll it, the scent that only a practitioner of the Demonic Path would possess!”
Su Chengyu a practitioner of the Demonic Path?
Bei Tang Qianxiao was stunned upon hearing this, and beside him, Yang Junmo also widened his eyes, staring at Su Chengyu in disbelief.
Su Chengyu’s eyebrows knitted tightly together, “Stop slandering , the Daoism thod I practice is the most righteous Cultivation Technique, not one of your Demonic Path!”
The Supre Xuanqing Jue that Su Chengyu practiced was definitely not a demonic technique, sothing Su Chengyu knew better than anyone else.
“You?
Look at yourself; the overwhelming righteous energy from you makes want to vomit!
If it wasn’t for that being’s aura on you, do you think I’d like dealing with you?”
Lin Ran spoke with utter disgust, his contempt evident in his eyes.
The essence of demonic techniques, after all, belongs to the twisted and evil paths, opposing the more closely aligned Daoist Incantations to the natural laws of the universe.
Su Chengyu’s Supre Xuanqing Jue, which transforms yin and yang and judges the Five Elents, emphasizes the Way of Nature—naturally incompatible with those demonic techniques that alter one’s innate traits.
Comforted sowhat by the other’s words, at the start of their conversation, Su Chengyu had a mont of worry, wondering if he, after all, had so special connection with the Demonic Path.
Yet he fell into confusion again, “And who is this being?”
“Of course, it’s that being, our supre god in the Demonic Path, who will eventually lead us to the ultimate chaos,” Lin Ran said.
In Lin Ran’s eyes, unveiled fervor shone, the devotion of a loyal believer praying to their god.
Su Chengyu, observing this behavior, finally understood why Bei Tang Qianxiao had said that the people of the Demonic Path were all madn.
These people had lost their faith, their purpose, even their sense of self on the path of cultivation.
They had completely turned into a group of madn.
Lin Ran slowly took a breath, suppressing the surge in his heart, then looked at Su Chengyu and smiled, “Don’t worry, I am a reasonable man.
I used to be friends with Yang Junmo, and since you’re also his friend, I promise if you hand over the person, I can let you go.
Oh no, I can let everyone here go.”
This statent made everyone focus their gaze on Su Chengyu, although they did not understand why Lin Ran would so readily abandon all his elaborate plans, it seed they had found an exit in this otherwise deadly impasse.
However, listening to this, Su Chengyu shook his head: “Sorry, it’s not that I don’t want to hand them over, I don’t even know who you’re talking about.”
“Hmm?”
Hearing this, Lin Ran’s eyes suddenly turned cold, and that mutated hand tightened its grip.
This ti Su Chengyu’s body, comparable to that of a Dongxu Cultivator, ultimately could not withstand it, and a mouthful of fresh blood was spewed out again.
“You think you have a choice?
Either hand them over or die!”
