"Look, the Ancient Demon Ridge folks are here too!"
Soone suddenly exclaid, attracting the attention of many, even the experts from the Pill Saint Palace turned to look.
A vast demon qi ca from the western sky, as the contemporary Demon Saint led many strong figures of the demon beast clan to appear here.
However, whether it was the contemporary Demon Saint or the other demon clan strongn, they all transford into human form, not showing their demon beast bodies. Although they didn’t restrain their demon qi, it seed they bore no ill intentions.
But after all, they were from the demon beast clan, the principle of "not of our race" was understood by everyone, and the humans present, be they martial artists or pill refiners, all showed hostility towards the contemporary Demon Saint’s group.
"Halt!" A strong human figure stepped forward and blocked the contemporary Demon Saint’s group, with a hint of coldness on his face.
Several in the demon beast group imdiately wanted to get angry, but the contemporary Demon Saint, transford into a white-haired elder, waved his hand, signaling the demons not to act rashly.
"We are rely here to admire the supre of alchemy, with no other intentions," said the white-haired elder. Though he was the Demon Saint, he showed no trace of authority and was very humble in his deanor.
The human strongman blocking their way frowned, glanced back at Bai Qingxue and the old Palace Master among others.
Bai Qingxue snorted lightly and directly approached the contemporary Demon Saint and his group, scaring the strong mbers of the demon clan, who imdiately stood in front of the contemporary Demon Saint, staring at Bai Qingxue with great caution.
The weaker demon beasts showed expressions of fear, not daring to look Bai Qingxue directly in the eye, afraid of inciting her wrath.
Even the contemporary Demon Saint’s eyelids twitched repeatedly, remaining outwardly calm, but not particularly wanting to face Bai Qingxue inwardly.
No other reason, just that Bai Qingxue’s reputation was incredibly intimidating. Whether among the human clan or the demon beast clan, everyone knew Bai Qingxue was famously short-tempered and prone to action without much provocation.
Countless contemporary strong figures had been dealt with by Bai Qingxue; even the contemporary Demon Saint had suffered at Bai Qingxue’s hands, finding no recourse and completely capitulating.
Apart from Bai Qingxue’s own fierce reputation, Fang Qingye’s deterrence also played a role; being the wife of a Martial Lord and the master of Emperor Bai City, who in the world dare to offend Bai Qingxue? Unless the demon beast clan wanted to be exterminated, they simply wouldn’t dare provoke soone like Bai Qingxue.
"Old lion, why have you brought this bunch of riff-raff here?" Bai Qingxue didn’t even glance at the other demon clan strongn and posed her question solely to the contemporary Demon Saint, fully disregarding these demon clan strongn in her words.
Hearing Bai Qingxue describe them as riff-raff made those demon clan strongn feel wretched and depressed. If anyone else dared describe them this way, they would have already been unable to hold back from attacking. However, the person opposite was Bai Qingxue, one of the most unassailable human strong figures under heaven, so they could only swallow their anger.
The contemporary Demon Saint’s mouth twitched, saying, "What? Do we not even qualify to witness the birth of a supre alchemist?"
Bai Qingxue, hearing this, casually remarked, "Then stay here obediently. If you dare cause any trouble, don’t even think about going back to Ancient Demon Ridge; you can all co to Emperor Bai City to move bricks."
The group of demons glanced at each other, their hearts filled with frustration, almost to the point of vomiting blood, yet they dared not utter a word, only nodding along compliantly.
The contemporary Demon Saint said, "Rest assured, we won’t cause any trouble."
Bai Qingxue was about to turn and leave, but added, "Old lion, you probably don’t have many days left, do you?"
The contemporary Demon Saint, indeed a lion demon, upon hearing Bai Qingxue’s words, rely sighed and nodded.
Bai Qingxue glanced lightly at the demon clan strongn behind the contemporary Demon Saint, smiling with contempt, "Once you’re dead, is there anyone among these guys who can succeed your position?"
With this, the expressions of the demon clan strongn behind the contemporary Demon Saint beca sowhat unnatural. By now, everyone knew the contemporary Demon Saint’s days were numbered, with his lifespan nearly exhausted.
At that ti, the demon beast clan is bound to experience a brief chaos, until a new Demon Saint ascends, once again ruling over the demon beast clan.
And among the demon clan strongn who accompanied the contemporary Demon Saint, it is highly likely the next Demon Saint will erge.
After all, the demon clan strongn accompanying the contemporary Demon Saint, in terms of status or strength, are the topmost in the demon beast clan, naturally qualified to compete for the position of the next Demon Saint.
Ask which demon clan strongman does not wish to beco the Demon Saint? However, before the old Demon Saint dies of old age, they hadn’t shown it much but secretly had been setting the stage for themselves.
The contemporary Demon Saint sighed, just shaking his head without speaking; he held little hope for the future of the demon beast clan.
After he dies of old age, no matter who succeeds the position of Demon Saint, it’s estimated they won’t do better than him. With the rise of the human clan nowadays, unless there are other changes in the demon beast clan, it will only continue to decline, perhaps one day, the demon beast clan will beco the lowest existences, just like the humans of the Ancient Wilderness era.
However, the old Demon Saint knows that worrying is pointless. The demon beast clan is in such a state now, with no clear path forward. As he is near death, he won’t bother with unnecessary concerns.
"Since the demon beast clan is so incapable, why not find a human to be the Demon Saint?" Bai Qingxue suddenly remarked.
The old Demon Saint was stunned for a mont, while the faces of other demon clan strongn imdiately filled with anger. Even facing Bai Qingxue, their anger was unhindered.
"The position of Demon Saint can only be inherited by the demon beast clan," the old Demon Saint said in a deep voice, sowhat displeased with Bai Qingxue’s nonsense.
"Hmph, just said it casually, and you took it seriously?" Bai Qingxue smiled contemptuously, turning to leave, no longer dealing with the old Demon Saint and his companions.
But even though she ignored them, Bai Qingxue ordered the martial experts she brought to keep a close watch on the old Demon Saint’s group. If they dared to cause trouble here, do not show rcy and slaughter them all.
At this mont, Fang Lin, imrsed in the supre insights of the Alchemy Tao, paid no attention to everything around him. Before him were only the vast stars and the boundless world.
At this mont, Fang Lin’s understanding of life and death had reached a higher level, concepts that were once vague had now thoroughly ford in his heart.
Fang Lin suddenly took a step forward, with a phantom of a Pill Furnace appearing at his feet, resembling a step.
The pill furnaces gathered from various places scattered, each returning to where it ca from.
Everyone present saw nine pill furnace phantoms appear, resembling nine steps, paved in front of Fang Lin.
