We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real?

Beyond that, Lei Peng had an extreme fondness for slaughter.

If a city was breached by Lei Peng, then whether human or demon, almost no one inside would be left alive.

He did not even spare children with no strength to truss a chicken.

Lei Peng’s actions were no different from those of a beast, and they had long since stirred up public fury within the human race.

But because he had bought over major sects and human cultivators above the Golden Core Realm with benefits, he still had many supporters. For the time being, he could still stabilize the situation.

Now, however, more and more human sects and cultivators were leaving the Human Alliance one after another. There were also many sects that had sworn to eradicate Lei Peng, this calamity.

Therefore, the Human Alliance likely would not last much longer either.

Judging from the current situation, it seemed instead that the Myriad Demon Alliance had gained the upper hand in the demon-race world.

However, after that brutal great battle, the Myriad Demon Alliance could be said to have suffered disastrous losses and severe damage to its vitality. For now, it did not dare give rise to any extra ambitions either.

For a time, the entire demon-race world seemed to quiet down all at once, even falling into a subtle and inexplicable balance.

But Xiao Mo understood very clearly in his heart.

The demon-race world that followed might very well split into countless forces large and small, falling into a chaotic situation where each fought for itself and attacked one another.

And yet, with the demon-race world having fought itself to this state, that lame old man, Gui Ning, had not only never appeared to mediate among the various forces; from beginning to end, he had not even shown his face. It was as though he had vanished into thin air.

After the great battle ended, Xiao Mo also wrote Tushan Jingci a short letter to tell her he was safe.

In fact, during his days in Flowing Sand City, Xiao Mo would write to Jingci every so often.

However, in those letters, Xiao Mo had never mentioned the fact that he had been deliberately targeted, nor had he ever spoken of the life-and-death dangers he had experienced.

What Xiao Mo wrote in his letters was nothing but peace and good news.

Tushan Jingci wrote to Xiao Mo even more frequently.

Most of what the young woman wrote about in her letters were daily trivialities.

For example, the vexation of handling Tushan affairs.

For example, the tedium and dullness of cultivation.

Or, for another example, the few close female friends she had newly made.

Xiao Mo and Tushan Jingci seemed exactly alike.

Neither mentioned their own difficulties or worries at all. Both reported only joy, never sorrow.

In the blink of an eye, another half month passed.

Xiao Mo heard that the Myriad Demon Alliance intended to go negotiate with the Sacred Demon Alliance and the Heavenly Demon Alliance, to discuss joining together against the humans and then dividing the demon-race world into three.

The place of negotiation was chosen as Nine Nether Mountain. The three forces agreed that each side could send only one Immortal Realm cultivator.

On the Myriad Demon Alliance’s side, Elder Hongxia was naturally the one who would go.

However, Xiao Mo did not feel that these negotiations would produce any result.

In his view, the three sides were merely harboring their own schemes.

Sure enough, ten days later, news arrived: the negotiations between the three demon alliances had formally broken down.

The three sides were dissatisfied with one another’s conditions, and none was willing to give ground.

In the end, the three Immortal Realm cultivators actually began fighting directly. Their battle overturned heaven and earth, and the entire Nine Nether Mountain was flattened.

Yet it was precisely during this chaotic battle that Tushan Hongxia and the other two unexpectedly discovered an ancient ruin.

Unfortunately, this ruin was sealed firmly by an ancient restriction, and the three of them could not enter at all.

Even so, through that seal, they could still clearly sense the domineering bloodline aura seeping out from the depths of the ruin, terrifying enough to make one’s heart tremble.

Tushan Hongxia and the other two immediately ceased fighting for the time being and instead joined hands to investigate the ruin’s origins.

Another ten days passed before Tushan Hongxia returned to Flowing Sand City.

The first thing she did after returning to the city was issue an announcement regarding that ruin.
