Translator: TransnEditor: Transn
Demon Tribe was unable to escape attention in Untainted Land after causing such a huge commotion by moving to Heavenly Court, especially from their nemesis, Wu Tribe. The minute Demon Tribe made their move, the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery was once again gathered in Hall of Pangu to come up with a solution.
The eldest brother Emperor Jiang spoke first. ”What do you all think of Demon Tribe's move to Heavenly Court?” The brainless Zhu Rong said, ”The old hags Emperor Jun and the Great One must be scared of our Wu Tribe, or else they wouldn't have ran away!”
Everyone chose to ignore Zhu Rong's words. After some thought, Zhu Jiuyin said, ”Brother, I think their move has its pro and cons. The pro is that if Demon Tribe moves to Heavenly Court, our tribe can dominate the entire Untainted Land. We can then develop and grow stronger.”
The Ancestors of Sorcery agreed with his words, but their expressions became grim when they heard Zhu Jiuyin continue. ”When Demon Tribe gathers in the Heavenly Court, their powers will be consolidated. With Emperor Jun's abilities, it won't take long to integrate Demon Tribe. What's more, the Spiritual Air in Heavenly Court is no less than in Untainted Land. Demon Tribe will definitely get much stronger.”
Emperor Jiang said, ”Do you have solutions, Second Brother?” Zhu Jiuyin answered, ”We should take advantage of Demon Tribe's move and capture their territory immediately. We should leave some of their tribe members alive as a way to hurt their spirit. Besides, it's also a good chance to put our tribe to practice. We should cultivate our tribesmen with leadership potential and strengthen our fighting capacity.”
With Zhu Jiuyin's plan for countermeasure, Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery all made their preparations to act. The army of Wu Tribe was aimed at Demon Tribe. Wherever they went, victory belonged to them. Emperor Jun and the Great One were caught off guard, having not expected Wu Tribe to launch an attack at this time. They were distracted by their happiness of obtaining Heavenly Court that it was too late for them to even rescue their tribesmen.
Several years later, the number of Demon tribesmen who made it to Heavenly Court did not even make up 100 billion. There were tens of billions of Demon Tribe who were trapped in Untainted Land by Wu Tribe. Many more Sacred Demons died fighting Wu Tribe. Emperor Jun naturally took great offense with this outcome.
But as the leader of Demon Tribe, Emperor Jun would not be impulsive. The strength of his tribe was now not enough to have an outright war with Wu Tribe. They could only swallow this humiliation, concentrate on their recovery, and wait for their tribe to expand their strength before battling Wu Tribe.
Emperor Jun and the Sacred Demons were gathered in the Peak Palace. The Great One was missing as he had devoted all his attention on his cultivation and completely had no mind to participate in state affairs. Emperor Jun looked at the demoralized Sacred Demons and said, ”I know you're all distressed by our loss this time, but you have to look at it from a long term perspective. Our Demon Tribe has found a good foundation. It's a good thing. We just have to rest for thousands of years and we'll be able to surpass our strength now.”
Ji Meng said, ”Your Majesty is right. Our Demon Tribe has now taken over Heavenly Court and has the Heaven as our backing. With Heavenly Court as our foundation, we can justify the name of our tribe and declare our dominance in Untainted Land.”
Emperor Jun nodded. Their tribe was declared Demon Tribe by themselves and they were not recognized by those in Untainted Land or The Way of Heaven. If they build up their tribe, they could gather all the luck belonging to Demon Tribe, allowing their tribe to develop even more rapidly. Then it would not take long for them to possess the strength to fight Wu Tribe.
Ji Meng's words alerted Emperor Jun and he took immediate action to pray to the deities. The tribesmen who resided in Heavenly Court were all called. He summoned even The Great One out of his Closed Door Meditation. It would not look proper if the Royal Demon, The Great One, was absent at such a huge event.
When everything was prepared, Emperor Jun lit the incense and prayed. ”The Way of Demon, our Demon Tribe has emerged to meet our historic destiny. With Heavenly Court as our foundation and Bell of Chaos, the River Chart, and the Inscription of the Luo to suppress luck, we established Demon Tribe. We pray that The Way of Heaven allow our existence.” Emperor Jun kowtowed three times. ”Demon Tribe, stand!”
