Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Chapter 1096: Chapter 665: Accepting Surrender_3

After speaking, Gui Sanqian and Shui Lingling were bowed to, and then they mounted their Escape Light and headed west.

Leaving the crowd behind, their Divine Sense fell silent. The Demon Saints of the Monster Nation looked at each other in dismay.

This female Demon Head!

Must she take matters to such extremes?

How do you expect others to act in this situation?

“Both of you…”

Several Demon Saints exchanged glances, and finally, someone couldn’t hold back any longer and bravely stepped forward.

However, before he could speak, Gui Sanqian and Shui Lingling rode off on clouds, causing the person to freeze in his movements.

Thus it is…

In the west, the Barbaric Wastes, the Ten Thousand Demon Hall!

“Welcome the Heavenly King!”

Nangong Yu Die returned to the hall, where numerous Demon Cultivators knelt in greeting, but the several Tribulation Realm Heavenly Demons remained unmoved.

Even worse, some directly confronted her.

“You actually submitted in this manner?”

“In the presence of all those eyes?”

“Why didn’t you discuss it with us first?”

“You didn’t fight, and even acted recklessly for your own sake?”

A group of Tribulation Realm Heavenly Demons questioned her, among them two Eight Calamities old Demons were particularly severe.

“Hmph!!!”

Nangong Yu Die snorted coldly, exerting her pressure, sweeping over the crowd, nowhere near her previous weak demeanor: “For my own sake? If I were indeed doing this for myself, I would have crossed the Tribulation and ascended long ago. Would I need to be so submissive?

“Who am I doing this for if not for our Demon Path, for our people of the Barbaric Wastes?”

“That Li Xuanyuan’s Cultivation has reached a realm unfathomable to gods and ghosts, rebelling stubbornly is like an arm blocking a cart, only submission offers a path to survive.”

Nangong Yu Die looked coldly at the Demons: “I know your concerns. Wandao School seeks to win hearts and unify the Northern Territory, they surely won’t settle old scores now, but what happens later is uncertain. Either clean up your act or get out of the Barbaric Wastes, go overseas, or else, don’t blame me for being ruthless and disregarding past friendships!”

“You…!”

“Hmph!!!”

Despite their shock and anger, Nangong Yu Die paid no heed and left with a snort.

Leaving several Tribulation Realm Demon Heads in the Ten Thousand Demon Hall, watching each other, unsure what to do.

Just as Nangong Yu Die said, they only had one concern, that after Wandao School took over the Barbaric Wastes, they might turn their backs on them, settling old scores or mistreating their Devil Race.

Apart from that, they were quite willing to come under the rule of the Scholar’s Palace.

Because they from the Demon People in the Four Wilds Frontier were different from those of the Celestial Gate Holy Land of the Central Plains of the Northern Territory. The Celestial Gate Holy Land resisted Wandao School because it pressured their living space, broke the monopoly of Cultivation Techniques and various resources, causing them difficulties in development and continuity.

If things continued like this, after a few thousand years, their Tao Lineage would notably decline, if not extinct.

But that’s the situation of the Holy Land Immortal Sects of the Northern Territory.

These demon and barbarian tribes from the Four Wilds Frontier already had a low standard of living, joining the Wandao School wouldn’t damage their interests but bring numerous benefits, especially for the lower and middle-level Demon People and Devil Race.

As for the higher-ups, there were also many benefits since the Honored Wandao was famously generous and speculated to be a powerful being from the Upper Realm with extraordinary educative power. If they could be taught by him, their chances of successfully Crossing the Tribulation would greatly increase.

With such great benefits, why the hesitation?

Because it’s uncertain!

All movements in the world pivot around interests.

Wandao School wants to unify the Northern Territory, even extending reach to this impoverished frontier, even willing to reconcile past grievances and accept these demon people, treating them equally.

How much investment and effort does all this require?

Resources in the world are limited, while the expansion and needs of the population are unlimited. How can Wandao School afford such an approach without running into depletion?

What is the real agenda of the Honored Wandao?

It couldn’t possibly just be benevolent world salvation, freeing them, these demons, from suffering shores, could it?

The Demons did not believe he had no ulterior motives, hence they always harbored reservations, and so did the Demon Race. The Tongtian Saint who stood out did so because he believed the stakes were tremendous. This current approach was merely a temporary appeasement. Believing it now could cost them enormously in the future.

But…

What to do if they didn’t believe?

The Tongtian Saint has failed!

Nangong Yu Die, the Ten Thousand Demon King, has also submitted!

With the strongest forces submitting, could they still staunchly resist?

“Enough, enough!”

“What else can be done now?”

“Those who should go, go; those who should stay, stay!”

“Everyone tidy up your tracks well, don’t give others a handle!”

“Regardless of his plots, for now, endure quietly, awaiting changes…”
