Di Jun held back Tai Yi, sighed, and comforted him, "Tai Yi, Duke of the East was appointed by Hongjun as the head of all male immortals. Even if he acts domineeringly, before we understand Hongjun's bottom line, you and I must not act rashly."
"This won't do, that won't do. Everyone is starting to complain."
Tai Yi was so angry that he started coughing.
His injuries had not fully healed, and it was fortunate that he had the Chaos Bell protecting him, otherwise his injuries would have been even more severe!
"And there's Demon Master Kunpeng, who created some Demon Script, categorizing all of us as the Demon Clan. Now his prestige is quite high, and I'm afraid that if this continues, something big will happen."
Originally, there was no concept of the Demon Clan in the Primordial World. Kunpeng had his own fortuitous encounter and created the Demon Script, not only gaining a lot of merit, but also giving birth to the Demon Clan. Kunpeng was also respectfully called Demon Master by countless members of the Demon Clan.
His reputation soared for a time. If Di Jun and Tai Yi weren't strong enough, and Kunpeng didn't have ambitions, there would definitely have been many members of the Demon Clan who would have gone to follow him.
"This is a good thing."
Tai Yi was worried, but Di Jun thought it was a good thing.
"Tai Yi, have you ever considered that before we were identified as the Demon Clan, the members of the Demon Clan were chaotic, fighting each other, and devouring demon cores to become stronger? This act was against the heavens and undesirable.
But now with the Demon Script, members of the Demon Clan have started to create cultivation techniques. With these cultivation techniques, not only has the act of devouring the inner cores of fellow clansmen decreased, but it has also given the members of the Demon Clan a sense of belonging. This is a good thing."
"But..."
The more Tai Yi thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. In the end, he could only throw his hands up and go into seclusion.
He couldn't win an argument with Di Jun anyway, so he simply gave up.
Watching Tai Yi leave, Di Jun sighed. He was still too impulsive.
At present, the Dragon Clan could not be won over.
With Xu Feng emerging to lead the Dragon Clan and become the Dragon Emperor, the Dragon Clan would definitely not submit to the Demon Clan.
Di Jun also had no intention of fighting with Xu Feng. The Dragon Clan couldn't even solve its own problems, so it couldn't cause any trouble.
Instead, the members of the Witch Clan at the foot of Mount Buzhou were difficult to deal with.
As for Demon Master Kunpeng, Di Jun didn't even put him in his eyes.
As long as Kunpeng didn't raise an army, how far could one person go?
Now, the only one he needed to worry about was that damned Duke of the East.
With Hongjun's appointment, Duke of the East was followed by many people. For a time, he was infinitely glorious, acting domineeringly throughout the Primordial World, and members of the Demon Clan had to make way for them.
These days were quite boring.
Leading a group of followers, Duke of the East roamed the Primordial World, promoting Hongjun's existence everywhere, and incidentally killing those who were ignorant to prevent them from causing chaos in the Primordial World.
Little did he know, the Primordial World was becoming more and more chaotic, and he was the biggest source of it.
"It seems I am missing a mount."
Seeing that many people had mounts, and could just take their mounts and go wherever they wanted, while he was still flying around on a cloud, Duke of the East felt it was improper.
He was, after all, the head of all male immortals appointed by a Saint. His travels should be dignified, otherwise he would be disgracing Hongjun.
"My Lord, this is not difficult. Just capture a mount. Those members of the Demon Clan wouldn't dare to say anything."
Missing a mount?
Just capture one, that's right. There are countless members of the Demon Clan, and too many suitable ones to be mounts.
"The Demon Clan is unsuitable. How could they match my Lord's status? To find a mount, it must be from a great clan, like the Dragon Clan!!"
"That makes sense!!!"
These words deeply pleased Duke of the East.
He was someone appointed by Hongjun. What was wrong with capturing a dragon as a mount? They were the ones.
"Haha, what you all said is right. We'll just go directly to the East Sea."
It's just a dragon, what's the big deal?
Even though the Dragon Clan had caused a big stir before, and Xu Feng, the Dragon Emperor, had said that whoever captured a member of the Dragon Clan as a mount would have trouble with him.
But Duke of the East simply didn't believe in such evil.
I was appointed by Hongjun. Try to touch me.
"Report!! This is bad."
"What's the panic?"
Lying on his side in a chair, Ao Guang, feeling a bit depleted in his 'big kidney', growled impatiently.
Damn it, he never thought having children would be so exhausting before.
"Reporting, Dragon King, that Duke of the East has come to our East Sea and demands that our Dragon Clan hand over a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon to him as a mount, otherwise he will directly invade and slaughter our Dragon Clan members!!"
The person reporting shouted in alarm.
"How dare he!!!"
Ao Guang jumped up, enraged, "This Duke of the East is simply lawless! Watch me... uh."
After his outburst, Ao Guang shivered.
This Duke of the East was not to be provoked. He was the head of all male immortals appointed by Hongjun, representing Hongjun in managing all male immortals in the world. Who could possibly provoke him?
But Xu Feng had said that anyone who dared to send out their clansmen as mounts, even a mixed-breed dragon, would be crushed by him when he emerged.
Can't provoke him, can't provoke him.
Ao Guang could only support his waist and shout, "Move aside, this King is going to ask the Dragon Emperor to come out of seclusion!!!"
Duke of the East, with a large group of people, was waiting above the East Sea for the Dragon Clan to send out a mount for him.
He believed that the Dragon Clan wouldn't dare to disobey, so he wasn't in a hurry, happily chatting about interesting things in the Primordial World with his followers.
And Ao Guang, who was terrified, immediately went to seek an audience with Xu Feng.
Inside the secret chamber, Xu Feng's aura grew stronger and stronger. His cultivation realm had stabilized, but what was annoying was that he had returned to the difficult situation of cultivation, making him want to curse.
He had already cursed Zhulong countless times.
Just as he was about to come out of seclusion, Ao Guang shouted from outside the secret chamber, "Dragon King of the East Sea, Ao Guang, pays respects to the Dragon Emperor."
"What is it?"
"Dragon Emperor, a group of people has arrived outside. The leader is Duke of the East, appointed by Hongjun. He demands that our Dragon Clan hand over a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon to him as a mount, otherwise he will invade and slaughter our Dragon Clan members."
"Boom!!!"
The secret chamber exploded, and Xu Feng walked out with a cold expression.
Oh, you Duke of the East, I couldn't be bothered with you, so you came looking for death yourself, didn't you?
You really think that with Hongjun's appointment, you can use a chicken feather as a token of authority, right?
"No need to panic, this Emperor will handle it!!!"
Xu Feng glanced at Ao Guang, then disappeared from the Dragon Palace and appeared above the East Sea.
Above the East Sea, Duke of the East was waiting with his people.
"Fellow Daoist."
Seeing Xu Feng arrive, Duke of the East cupped his hands with a fake smile and said, "Fellow Daoist, this humble Daoist still needs a mount to travel more quickly throughout the Primordial World and manage the male immortals here. I ask Fellow Daoist to provide more assistance with this difficulty, otherwise, this humble Daoist will have no way to explain to Hongjun, will I?"
Oh, so he's pulling out Hongjun's banner as soon as he starts talking?
Xu Feng's eyes grew colder and colder, but Duke of the East remained completely unconcerned.
Because he could guarantee that Xu Feng wouldn't dare to touch him, and even if he was very angry, he would still send out a clansman to be his mount.
He definitely had to choose carefully. It was said that many dragon maidens were very beautiful. This humble Daoist...
You want a mount, do you?
