Above all spirits

Chapter 216 The Power of the Heavenly Demon (Part 2)

The voice just fell.

The silvery-white innate energy that had been flowing steadily around Bing Buyu suddenly erupted, raging wildly in all directions. Countless floating stones around him were crushed into powder in an instant, and the powder drifted away with the shockwave.

However, this sudden pressure was so controlled that no one in the surrounding Temple of War was affected.

This demonstrates the exquisite control he has over his power!

As for Gu Yun, he felt an invisible yet extremely heavy deterrent force firmly locking onto him, as if a large hand was gripping him.

Just as Gu Yun had initially guessed.

The soldier remained silent, indicating he was indeed a pseudo-innate being.

In this regard.

Gu Yun simply looked at the people in front of him calmly, without the slightest arrogance, and without caring whether they had innate strength or not. He was completely different from before.

Although I know it's impossible, I still speak from the bottom of my heart.

"I didn't mean to look down on you in the slightest."

"only."

"They are them and I am me."

“Lord Bing, things have come to this point. Even if you don’t know the details, you can probably guess what’s going on. I believe you’re not someone who’s all brawn and no brains.”

“My original intention was not to be an enemy of the Temple of War. If I really hated you, I would not have let those two little temple guards under your command go.”

As he spoke, Gu Yun gestured to Zero and Eleven with his eyes, while Bing Buyu remained silent, something he had already guessed from their description.

It was almost a one-sided battle. If they really wanted to kill, they wouldn't have let Zero and Eleven go just because of their power: Shifting Stars.

That's why Bing Buyu didn't make a move against Gu Yun immediately, and because of the connection with Qi Shi, he couldn't help but observe and confirm Gu Yun's identity again and again.

As for the Heavenly God of the Underworld, who had been standing behind him, he looked on with an air of detached indifference, as if watching a show.

In fact, the War God Temple's hatred for the Heavenly Demon is simply due to their hatred of the Heavenly Demon's identity.

The existence of this identity symbolizes chaos, and the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages.

Gu Yun suddenly thought of something and said.

Where is Wan Xingchen?

"I don't know if he told you about the other operation at the Astral Conference, since he would have been killed if he had revealed it."

Gu Yun raised an eyebrow, and seeing the confused expressions on Bing Buyu and the others' faces, he immediately understood and shrugged.

"Ok."

"It seems they didn't say."

"But it seems his fate will be the same, which is truly tragic."

There's nothing urgent right now, and it would be best to ease the tension between the Demon Clan and the Temple of War. Although Gu Yun isn't entirely confident, after all, it's a centuries-old struggle that he can't simply change at will.

He understood this very well.

Now that he has successfully condensed the Heavenly Demon Emperor's Will, it's better to talk things out. He can choose to have those resources or not, since his vision is different from Wan Wujiang's. No matter how powerful the lower realm is, it is still just the lower realm.

So he described the general outline of the whole affair to the people in front of him, naturally omitting some of his own secrets.

After the whole story was recounted, everyone in the Temple of War, except for Mingtian God who had an amused expression on his face, was filled with worry and resentment. Among them, Eleven couldn't help but blurt out.

"It was too easy to let that guy die."

Bing Buyu glared at Eleven before taking a deep breath and speaking to Gu Yun.

"Many parts of your account match the information we have received, and perhaps what you have said is the most truthful account."

"If that's true, if you were just an ordinary demon, I would respect your actions, but you have ultimately become a Heavenly Demon. A Heavenly Demon cannot be allowed to live."

Gu Yun gave a helpless laugh; he wasn't surprised by this outcome.

He sighed.

Is there truly no reconciliation between humans and demons?

"Even if I didn't become a Heavenly Demon, how would you identify and deal with those who were planted with the demonic seed? So many innocent people on Canglan Star didn't willingly become demons, how would you deal with them? Banish them to the Demon Realm? Or slaughter them all?"

Bing Buyu was somewhat surprised by what Gu Yun said, as it was so inconsistent with the character of the Heavenly Demons throughout history.

He hadn't considered these issues yet. Canglan Star was such a mess; if left unchecked, it would likely be divided up by other powerful forces, potentially even triggering a star-domain war. This was something the War God Temple didn't want to see, and Bing Buyu certainly didn't want to see either, because his teacher, Han Tian, ​​was also on Canglan Star.

Han Tian would never abandon the fruits of his life's work.

As for the fate of those who did not willingly become demons, if no one protects them, they probably won't fare much better. Although Zero can eliminate inner demons, it is completely unrealistic in the face of such a huge number of people.

but...

Bing Buyu raised his own questions about this.

"What good is your existence for this?"

"The identity of the Heavenly Demon will only make the situation worse."

Gu Yun extended two fingers and gently stroked the sword, speaking coldly.

"I can promise to remove the demonic seed from everyone, and I don't really care about it myself."

"I can also promise that the demon race will not invade and expand. If anyone violates this promise, I will personally deal with them."

"but."

"I won't offend anyone unless they offend me."

"If anyone offends me, I will repay him a hundredfold."

"With me here, I will not allow the demons to be oppressed in any way, nor will I allow it. Take the current situation on Canglan Star that you are worried about, for example. It's actually very simple. I will stay here for a period of time."

Gu Yun slowly raised his head, staring directly at the soldier without saying a word.

"No matter how many forces come, I will kill all the high-ranking members of those forces to show my power to the entire human realm."

"Oh, right."

"Isn't there still Han Tian? I'll handle external affairs while he guards the internal affairs, and the matter of Canglan Star will be easily resolved."

Bing Buyu's expression darkened, and he slowly drew his silver longsword from his waist.

"As expected, your demonic nature remains unchanged. With such domineering behavior, how could Master Han possibly associate with you?"

"Our Temple of War will handle this matter properly."

"You don't need to worry about it."

"The Heavenly Demon, the War God Temple cannot allow this to continue; it will only lead to future trouble."

"Demons can exist, but the Heavenly Demons cannot, and the Original Sin Envoys cannot."

"You absolutely must not!"

Gu Yun sneered, his eyes flashing with cold light.

"So after all that talk, we still have to fight."

"Fine, let's fight then."

"It seems I'll only stop after I've beaten you all into submission. But you don't need to send these people into the fray. Just you and that god will suffice."

"Fists and kicks have no eyes, I'm afraid of getting them involved, don't look at me like that."

"The only reason I owe you this is because Han Tian once protected one of my friends, for whom I have been kind, and you are Han Tian's apprentice. Otherwise, do you think I would be willing to waste my breath here with you?"

Gu Yun's aura began to rise steadily, instantly breaking through the barrier of the peak of the Sacred Body.

It has reached the same level as Bing Buyu.

Pseudo-natural!
