165: 161 Northern Continent suffers a Jie 165: 161 Northern Continent suffers a Jie Yang Jian and his companion snickered, it seemed the Great Saint was truly terrified of those two at home.

The mighty Great Sage Equalling Heaven had actually fallen to such a state, which was somewhat a mix of laughter and tears.

For ten days, Sun Wukong stayed at Yang Mansion.

Whenever they encountered a powerful demon, Yang Jian and the others didn’t even need to lift a finger, as they only needed to inform him and Wukong would go and eliminate the demon immediately.

For a time, those evil demons really had bad luck.

Targeted by Sun Wukong, none of them could escape; all died under his cudgel.

Sun Wukong, the Demon-Subdued of the Nine Heavens Great Sage, truly lived up to his name.

The evil demons, upon hearing his name, couldn’t help but tremble all over, their complexions pale, terrified to the extreme.

Sun Wukong didn’t care about that; his reputation among the Demon Clan had never been good.

Many from the Demon Clan thought he harmed his own kind and hated him to the bone.

Sun Wukong didn’t mind, he acted on his whims, doing whatever he wanted.

…

In the Northern Continent, various major races lived, all blessed by the heavens, and even without cultivation, most could live from five hundred to a thousand years.

Moreover, there was no greed, no killing, nor demons or ghosts here.

Many clans from ancient times resided here.

The Northern Continent was blessed with abundance, making these races even less willing to engage in conflicts.

When demonic light struck across heaven and earth, the Northern Continent changed instantly.

The remnants from ancient times were demonized in an instant, and began a massacre.

All of a sudden, the entire Northern Continent was awash in blood.

Some races were not demonized, but in front of those brutally transformed beings, they were no match at all.

They cried out, hoping that an Immortal would appear to help them.

Great Emperor Ziwei was immediately alarmed when he learned of the situation in the Northern Continent, and he became furious instantly.

“Issue my decree, let True Martial act immediately to investigate the situation in the Northern Continent and suppress the demons.”

“Yes.”

Gold Star Taibai immediately went to deliver the decree.

The True Martial Great Emperor actually already knew the disturbances there, and was preparing to set off when Gold Star Taibai arrived.

He quickly read out the decree of Great Emperor Ziwei, and then requested the True Martial Great Emperor to take action.

The True Martial Great Emperor selected the Turtle and Snake Generals and the Five Divine Dragons, along with the Five Thunder Generals, to lead the troops to the Northern Continent.

When they arrived at the Northern Continent, the True Martial Great Emperor was also stunned by the demonic qi that filled the sky.

Some powerful beings charged at them.

Those were the remnants from ancient times, utterly ferocious after being demonized.

The Benevolent Immortal, they also weren’t afraid and charged directly to fight the Immortal.

The True Martial Great Emperor immediately ordered the Turtle and Snake Generals to go and resist.

The Turtle and Snake Generals led a troop to execute those demonized ancient remnants.

Afterwards, the True Martial Great Emperor ordered the Five Divine Dragons to rescue the beings that had not been demonized.

And the Five Thunder Generals followed him, searching for the mastermind behind the demonization of the Northern Continent.

The True Martial Great Emperor hadn’t got far before he was stopped.

That was a Great Roc permeated with surging Demonic Qi, whose strength was at the Heavenly Venerate realm.

It stared at the True Martial Great Emperor and said harshly, “From today onward, the Northern Continent belongs to my master, and you all should retreat swiftly.”

The Five Thunder Generals stepped forward, scolding loudly, “Are you blind?

Don’t you see who is before you?

This is the True Martial Demon-Subduing Emperor, who suppresses all demons under heaven.

A mere demon like you should be fleeing for your life instead of daring to provoke our emperor.”

The Great Roc sneered and said, “I don’t care if you’re the True Martial Great Emperor or even the Jade Emperor from the Heavenly Court, you must retreat today or else don’t blame my master for being ruthless.”

The True Martial Great Emperor fixed his gaze on the Great Roc and suddenly frowned, saying in shock, “You are the Roc Demon King, and your master behind you must be Kunpeng.

How did you end up like this?”

The Roc Demon King laughed proudly, “I have only now realized how comfortable the true Demon Dao is, haha, what regret I have for not joining the Demon Dao sooner; I could have become Heavenly Venerate long ago.”

The True Martial Great Emperor took a deep breath.

The performance of the Roc Demon King led him to one possibility.

That was, Kunpeng had also demonized.

Kunpeng was originally a top figure among the Great Heavenly Venerates, and having now embraced the Demon Dao, he was beyond what he could defeat.

Moreover, the thing that made Kunpeng demonize must be extraordinary.

Kunpeng’s current strength had definitively risen to a terrifying level.

With this in mind, the True Martial Great Emperor said, “Do not engage, retreat for now, rescue those beings who have not yet been demonized, and set up camp in a safe area to isolate the Demonic Qi from further demonizing any beings.”

“Yes.”

The subordinates of the True Martial Great Emperor were somewhat reluctant.

But they had no doubts about the orders of the True Martial Great Emperor, and without hesitation, they turned and retreated.

Behind them, the mad laughter of the Roc Demon King echoed.

Soon, they found the remaining members of the ancient Remnant Clan; the numbers were not many, less than one ten-thousandth.

This made the generals under the True Martial Great Emperor’s command seethe with fury.

Out of the entire Northern Continent’s population of hundreds of millions, this was all that was left.

Countless races were completely annihilated, never to be found again in this world.

And all this, Kunpeng was the initiator.

“Great Emperor, are we just going to watch Kunpeng rampage and harm the beings here?”

Teng Snake said angrily, the murderous intent in his eyes almost freezing people to death.

The Five Thunder Generals stepped out too and spoke loudly, “Great Emperor, please allow us to fight, please grant us permission to go to battle and wipe out these demons.”

The other generals also requested to fight, each brimming with a murderous aura.

Seeing the tragic state of the entire Northern Continent, they were extremely angry.

Even if these weren’t the beings of the Northern Continent or their own kin, they couldn’t stand it and really wanted to strike out.

The True Martial Great Emperor glanced at them and said softly, “Follow my command, without my order, no one shall battle.

I have already informed the Great Emperor Ziwei about this situation, we will wait for the Great Emperor Ziwei’s decision.”

“But…”

The Five Thunder Generals wanted to say something else.

The True Martial Great Emperor looked at him and his expression became stern, saying coldly, “Do you want to see our whole army destroyed?

I cannot defeat Kunpeng, he is a Great Heavenly Venerate, and I am merely a Heavenly Venerate.

Why undertake such a senseless sacrifice?”

Seeing that the Five Thunder Generals and the others fell silent, the True Martial Great Emperor continued, “It’s not that I fear death; you should understand me, but I do not want to die without any value.

Just quietly wait for the orders from the Heavenly Court.”

Having spoken thus, if they still did not understand, it would be too much.

Everyone ceased urging and waited for the news from the Heavenly Court.

Meanwhile, the Roc Demon King knelt before Kunpeng, and repeated the information about the True Martial Great Emperor setting up camp to him.
