Chapter 696 - 646: Why Not Take a Bet!
Chapter 696: Chapter 646: Why Not Take a Bet!
The supreme beings represent the pinnacle of existence. Even though Pei Xuanjing is only a cultivator of the eighth realm, his power is such that other cultivators cannot help but respect him.
Those who are also supreme beings like the Blood Fiend Ancestor can choose to incarnate themselves to pay a visit, but for other cultivators to descend in their spirit form could be considered disrespectful towards Pei Xuanjing.
For demonic big shots like the Blood Fiend Ancestor, in the past, suppression of an incarnation would not be a big deal, causing no harm to their essence. They simply need some time to recover.
However, the important consideration now is actually for the many subordinates and disciples who have followed them here. These cultivators of the seventh and eighth level of the Spirit Realm may not be the entirety of their power, but a loss would be unacceptable, especially in this critical juncture.
If the plan to divide the Sky Wasteland can be implemented, the stronger one’s own power, the more benefits they stand to gain in the forthcoming gluttonous feast.
If they suffer a setback and lose many of their strong subordinates at this time, then the demonic factions will undoubtedly miss this feast. Consequentially, the gap between them and the righteous factions would broaden, which is not acceptable.
However, they are clear that Pei Xuanjing probably wouldn’t act so harshly. After all, if he did, he would offend the entire demonic faction. When the avatars of these supreme beings descend, Pei Xuanjing certainly could not single-handedly face them. This would be a lose-lose scenario, benefiting others at their own expense.
Therefore, the Blood Fiend Ancestor questioned Pei Xuanjing aloud. He wanted to test Pei Xuanjing’s bottom line, to understand what he truly intended to do.
Unless Pei Xuanjing wants to completely sever ties with them, he will have to compromise, or give them an out, which would be beneficial for all.
