Ancestor of sorcererEmperor Jun finally realized what happened and said, ”No wonder I found Chi You's vital force so familiar. So they used Houtu's Blood of Essence to make him the new Ancestor of Sorcery. But all the twelve of them now live together in Hall of Pangu. We probably won't even have the chance to kill any of them. Besides, we're still in the 10,000 years period. If we fight with them now, we might be inflicted with Heaven Punishments.”
”Wouldn't it be much easier if we make them fight among themselves?” Kunpeng laughed. Behind his smiling face was a craftiness and cunning that made others shudder. The Ten Great Demon Sages couldn't help swallowing their saliva, secretly vowing never to offend Kunpeng in the future.
Fuxi, who stood aside, was confused. ”The Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery are so close to one another. Even the squabbling Zhurong and Gonggong would at most quarrel over some trifles now and then. With Emperor Jiang around, they wouldn't go over the line. Not to mention, they're now assembled. We stand no chance at all.”
Kunpeng replied, ”I know. That's why we need to separate them. Zhurong and Gonggong are our targets. So long as we intensify their conflicts beyond reconciliation, they'd definitely go all out to fight each other. When that time comes, we may have the chance to kill one of them.”
Emperor Jun immediately asked, ”Kunpeng, do you have any suggestions how we can do that?” Though they now had a way to deal with the Real Entity of Pangu, all their efforts would be in vain if they failed to exacerbate the relationship between Zhurong and Gonggong to the extent that they would want each other dead.
Kunpeng looked at one of the Ten Great Demon Sages and laughed, ”We'll have to rely on Demon Sage Gui Che for this.” Everyone turned to Gui Che, who looked completely at loss.
Noticing their confusion, Kunpeng explained, ”I heard Demon Sage Gui Che can convert and imitate another person's vital force. Our victory will lie in him. If he can slip into Zhurong and Gonggong's clans and cause misunderstandings between the clans, we'll definitely be able to lure them out of Hall of Pangu.”
He paused momentarily before adding, ”For this to work, we'll need Emperor Jun to personally visit Wahuang Heaven and ask for Goddess Nvywa's help. She'll need to mess up the Secrets of Heaven so one of them can be killed. As for whether Zhurong and Gonggong will fight, we'll have to count on Demon Sage Gui Che.”
Gui Che burst into a goosebump-inducing, creepy laughter. Dubbed the Nine-Headed Bird, the Demon Sage had a red body in the shape of a duck with wings about three meters long. When darkness closed in and the sky darkened, he would fly into houses and suck out the aura of the dwellers inside. What Kunpeng suggested was just right up his alley. He would naturally not turn it down.
Seeing as Gui Che had no objections, Emperor Jun went to Wahuang Heaven to ask Goddess Nvywa to do them the favour. Once the Secrets of Heaven were messed up, Gui Che secretly descended down the Untainted Land and headed towards the Wu Clan. They thought they did this all covertly, yet Emperor Jun had no idea that two outsiders were keeping an eye on their every move.
Up the Holy Mountain of the West, Zhunti laughed as he watched Gui Che sneakily headed for the Wu Clan on his own. ”The Demon Tribe just won't quiet down. They've just caused the Great Calamity of Human Clan and now they're planning something against the Wu Clan. I hope this doesn't turn out like the last time.”
The eastward plan was never off Zhunti's mind for he wanted to rejuvenate the west. Thus he would have his Good Separation spy on the earth and report the slightest move even when he was in cultivation. The Three Pure Ones, Goddess Nvywa, Minghe, Houtu, and Sorcerer and Demon tribes were all under his surveillance. Though he may not always be able to watch what the individuals were doing, the actions of the two clans never escaped his eyes.
Emperor Jun had personally visited Wahuang Heaven and the Secrets of Heaven were messed up shortly after. Goddess Nvywa had evidently done something. Thus, Zhunti began spying on the Demon Tribe's every movement. As expected, he found Gui Che secretly descending to the Untainted Land and heading for the territory of their enemesis, the Wu Tribe. How could this not interest Zhunti?
