Chapter 1450 - 386: Adding Glory, The Counterattack (5k)
Seeing that there was no turning back, Zizaitian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Honestly, Zizaitian knew too well about the Heavenly Demons, so he was even afraid of himself. If one day the Demons and Deities gained the upper hand, he might not resist growing a rebellious bone in his head.
Because he himself was a Heavenly Demon, he had the right to say, all Heavenly Demons are up to no good.
From the standpoint of the Human Race, killing all the Heavenly Demons, including Zizaitian himself, was actually no big deal.
Having followed Yu Ziqing for so long, and with everything Yu Ziqing did involving both him and Lou Huai, Zizaitian had a deep impression of some of the mundane things Yu Ziqing discussed with others.
Yu Ziqing said, that despite everything born in the world, as long as it's not extinct, there will always be some use for it.
Even Demons have their uses; for instance, as a rare delicacy, they could be devoured by hungry ghosts to alleviate their stomach's hunger.
The existence of Heavenly Demons, if used properly, actually wasn't useless.
Just like the Human Cultivators, the strong never cared about what your personality was or what you've done, as long as your will was firm and strong enough to survive tribulations, even if you were a great villain, you'd still become strong.
However, if a great scoundrel becomes strong, the disadvantages it brings to the whole will surely be much greater than some minor wickedness.
If there were a Heavenly Demon Trial, provoking the Heart Demon, those who were not utterly evil might very well be doomed, unable to survive the tribulation.
If one truly becomes evil to the extreme, determined to the utmost, they naturally wouldn't engage in the evil deeds ordinary people think of, which are too lowly.
At this point, it can be said that such a person has great ambition, just that their ambition differs from the common man.
Such people succeeding in the tribulation, well, let them be, anyway in a real fight they could be managed among the top elites.
Like those twisted Evil Dao, they probably couldn't withstand the Heavenly Demon Trial.
Overall, it's actually beneficial, conducive to long-term stable development.
And later on, after Yu Ziqing continuously fished out bastards with one foot on the edge of madness from the Mud Sea of the Muddied World, arranged them, and provided them with new True Forms and new Paths of Ascension.
After forming a mutually beneficial state with the Human Race.
Zizaitian understood how he should proceed to go further in his path ahead.
At that time, he genuinely wanted to follow Yu Ziqing for his ideals, rather than initially being afraid of death and taking sides.
He wanted to mimic, but also be a level higher than those bastards.
Those bastards were tied to the Divine Dynasty, so he, Zizaitian, of course, wanted to be tied to the Human Race, tied to all cultivators.
He differed from Lou Huai, Lou Huai, the Human Devil, liked to play the Heart Demon tricks, sweet-talking and flattering shamelessly.
Zizaitian considered himself just a bit superior to Lou Huai, so his style naturally had to be a bit higher.
He wanted to be the Heavenly Demon King of the Trials.
He didn't want to naturally become opposition because of his origin, turning it into a life-or-death situation.
The current Heavenly Demon King still lacked vision.
Even if one day they truly surpassed other races, exterminating the Human Race and Demon Clan, what would be the use?
The Era of Deities had passed, without cultivators, do Heavenly Demons still hold value?
How absurd, would you really let Heavenly Demons go nurture Devil Thoughts in other Devils? What a joke.
So, even from the Heavenly Demons' standpoint, the current Heavenly Demon King needed to be killed first, and his position usurped.
Under the current Heavenly Demon King's leadership, the entire Heavenly Demon Clan had no future, destined for a dead end.
Zizaitian convinced himself, and upon opening his perspective, became extremely determined.
After standing up, looking at Lou Huai, he viewed him with disdain.
Lou Huai secretly sneered, he didn't care what Zizaitian thought, being the Heavenly Demon King held no use, better to have an elder brother any day.
He thought that titles like Heart Demon King were useless, all vanity, clinging to someone's thigh was practical.
If connections here weakened, no matter if you truly became some king, you'd still die.
But now, he, Lou Huai, could openly walk in Almsgiving Town without fear of being snatched by a big hungry ghost for a taste.
Helping pass a message or appearing before some strong people without worrying about identity exposure.
Under the sky, which Demon is as flamboyant?
Can the Heavenly Demon King stand unscathed before the Mountain Lord?
Even saying the Mountain Lord couldn't find him, absolutely impossible, just giving his elder brother face, pretending not to know, too lazy to manage.
My elder brother's elder brother is the Mountain Lord, what is the Heavenly Demon King worth?
So, even if Zizaitian becomes the Heavenly Demon King in the future, that's about it.
The two Demons had long been looking down on each other, even secretly competing over a pair of shoes, in the major choice now differing, naturally they looked down on each other even more.
Yu Ziqing didn't care about the duo's petty schemes, as long as they didn't grow rebellious bones, didn't cause major issues, other matters could be negotiated.
Even Yu Ziqing thought a little scheming was nice, just concerned if there visibly wasn't any.
First find a way to stabilize the situation, then find a way to kill the Heavenly Demon King and King Jiunian.
...
With the Great Mistake and chaos gone, with the Disease Devil King's demise, annihilated completely.
Everything seemed to slowly recover.
Almsgiving Town was first to ring with exclamations, because in Duke Lin's villa of the Dali State, a youth succeeded in Qi Refinement entry, albeit difficult, indeed Qi was absorbed into the body unstabilized, and not scattered.
