Guarding the ancient human race for a thousand years, yet ridiculed by the world.

Chapter 2 Forgetting Home and Enjoying Pleasure

Suirenshi was heartbroken as he looked at these humans.

Have these guys completely forgotten what the Holy Emperor said back then?

The Holy Emperor had warned them before that outside the seal, witches and demons were wreaking havoc on the world, and now was the time when they were fighting fiercely.

Humanity is weak. Although it has the body-forging method passed down by the Holy King, it is still not enough for humanity to survive the war between the Lich King and the Demon King.

However, although people were reprimanded by Suirenshi, most of them were still unconvinced.

Because some people have indeed exchanged abundant resources with those demons from the outside world!

Therefore, although they were reprimanded by Suirenshi, they still discussed it privately and finally decided that a human named Guli would secretly go through the passage to the outside world to exchange goods with the demon race.

Gu Li was an elder of a human tribe. After receiving instructions from the elders, he secretly left the passage one night with supplies...

At that moment, as Gu Li led the convoy out of the passage, the people in the convoy were unaware that two pairs of eyes were watching them from high above the clouds.

One of them wore a crown with tassels, and the other wore a golden robe. Both of them exuded an aura of imperial power, making them majestic and domineering.

They were none other than Emperor Dijun and Emperor Donghuang Taiyi of the Heavenly Court of the Demon Clan.

The Witch Clan and the Demon Clan are now the two overlords of the primordial land, vying for supremacy.

The demon race rules the heavens, and the witch race rules the earth.

However, for the last few million years, the demon race has been in a weak position.

This caused some anxiety for both of the demon kings of the Heavenly Court.

They tried everything they could, but they still couldn't break through the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation of the Twelve Ancestral Witches of the Witch Clan.

Even though Di Jun had recently comprehended the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array under the Fusang Tree, and Tai Yi had the Chaos Bell by his side, they were still at a disadvantage.

However, recently, the demon race has discovered that if they use the soul essence and blood of humans as a catalyst to forge the Witch-Slaying Sword, they can break through the powerful physical bodies of the witch race.

This delighted Di Jun and Tai Yi.

However, when they arrived in the human realm with great enthusiasm, they discovered that the human realm had been sealed off, and the demon race was unable to enter human territory at all!

Although the demon race has the sage Nuwa, the human race was also created by Nuwa herself, so they dare not disturb her.

However, just when they were at their wits' end, to their surprise, Taiqing came looking for them.

To conspire with them to lure the humans out of the area.

The method is simple: Taiqing enters the human race to impart the Golden Elixir Dao, breaking a corner of the seal, while the demon race and Taiqing work together to set up a trap.

When the time comes, a large number of humans will emerge from the seal, and that will be the time for the demon race to slaughter humans on a large scale!

"Brother, do you think our plan will succeed?"

Taiyi stood on the cloud, looking down at the humans who were gradually walking out of the passage below, and couldn't help but ask.

Upon hearing this, Di Jun also said with a solemn expression, "This... let's wait and see. Let the humans take more benefits first, and then we'll talk again when a large number of humans emerge. This number of humans is simply not enough to forge the Witch-Slaying Sword."

Taiyi asked, "Elder brother, what do we do now?"

Di Jun fell into a deep voice. After a moment, his eyes flashed, and he said, "Let's ignore these humans for now. What we need to do now is expand the power of the demon race to counter the witch race. The Eastern King Duke is showing signs of rising in Penglai Immortal Island. Why not subdue the Purple Mansion and strengthen the demon race?"

Upon hearing this, Taiyi's eyes gleamed, and he said, "Brother, this is a great idea! By subduing the Purple Mansion, our demon race's power will expand considerably!"

Di Jun laughed and said, "Then it's decided!"

Di Jun glanced at the human race below again, a cold smile playing on his lips.

"Taiyi, let's immediately gather the demon army and conquer the Purple Mansion!"

……

Meanwhile, Gu Li led the humans out of the passage, and every human had an excited look on their face.

Looking at the world outside, they found it incredibly strange and wonderful.

However, one human said with some doubt, "Chieftain, the air outside... feels so polluted, unlike our shores of the East Sea..."

Upon hearing this, the other humans immediately realized what was happening and frowned.

"Yes, it's certainly not as good as our territory..."

Everyone started talking at once.

"Quiet down!"

Gu Li shouted loudly.

The crowd quieted down and looked at Gu Li.

Gu Li said in a deep voice, "Now that we're out, let's not be distracted. Let's keep going!"

Left with no other choice, the group continued on their journey.

However, some people still have vague concerns.

After traveling for about a month, suddenly someone's eyes lit up and they shouted, "Look everyone! There's a city ahead!"

Everyone immediately looked over.

Immediately, everyone's eyes lit up with excitement!

"My God, what a magnificent building!"

"Yes, they're far superior to our human race's simple wooden huts and bamboo houses!"

"There are so many figures there! Could they be demons?"

Everyone was very excited.

Because they saw magnificent buildings rising from the valley below the cliff, even though it was already night.

The city was also brightly lit and bustling with activity, with revelry every night!

Just like the paradise that the holy king once described to them.

But they didn't know that it was not paradise at all.

It's just an illusion created by the demon race!

Although many people in the human race had practiced the methods taught by Lin Xuan, many gave up after Taiqing shook people's hearts and turned to cultivate the Golden Core Dao.

After all, humans are naturally dull-witted, and they cannot achieve immortality through cultivation in a short period of time; they can only strengthen their bodies and prolong their lives.

Therefore, they couldn't see at all that the incredibly alluring and magnificent night view was just an illusion.

Soon, the people followed Gu Li to the gate of the magnificent city.

After explaining their purpose, the "people" guarding the gate didn't say anything and let them into the city directly.

This delighted Gu Li and the others.

They had no idea that these guards were nothing more than demons in disguise.

Upon entering the city, Gu Li and the others were filled with curiosity and longing, as if they had discovered a new continent.

They saw magnificent pavilions and towers, people dressed in fine clothes, and countless beautiful women, singing and playing the pipa under the lanterns of the flower bridge at night.

There's also endless delicious food and boundless luxury!

Gu Li and the others were utterly stunned!

This place is simply paradise!

For a moment, they even felt somewhat ashamed of themselves!

Compared to the splendor of this place, the humans on the shores of the East Sea are utterly crude and uncouth...

However, to Gu Li and the others' surprise, these people who looked elegant and wealthy did not look down on them. On the contrary, they received them very warmly!

They were given delicious food, and even allowed to live in luxurious palaces, where they could be with beautiful women...

Gu Li and the others were so engrossed in this wonderful experience that they almost forgot about their homeland...
