Primordial Era: When a Good Guy Awakens a Morally Unethical System

Chapters 156 and 157: The Death of the Eastern King

Di Jun's Daoist ceremony has ended. Despite Di Jun and Tai Yi's repeated attempts to persuade him to stay, Hong Yun cannot linger in the Nine Heavens. After all, the demon race is currently at its zenith, and being a guest in the Heavenly Court could give the impression that he is joining the demon race. Hong Yun does not want to get involved in that karma.

After bidding farewell to Dijun and Taiyi, Hongyun returned to Wuzhuang Temple with Hongchen, and they even watched a lively scene along the way.

Back in Zixiao Palace, Hongjun said that within ten thousand years, Dongwanggong would be the leader of all male immortals in the primordial world. Now that ten thousand years have passed, it's time for Dijun to make his move against Dongwanggong. However, no one could have imagined that Dijun would choose this particular time to act.

Dongwanggong was also a useless fellow. Penglai's protective array was so strong that Donghuang Taiyi failed to break it even after two attempts. If he had just stayed in Penglai and cultivated, he wouldn't have lost his life. But he just couldn't stay idle. Despite not having the ability, he insisted on doing several important things. Taking advantage of Dijun's wedding, when Dijun and Donghuang Taiyi were both busy, he left the island and wiped out two small demon clans.

He had calculated that Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi were too busy to be in two places at once, but he forgot to consider how many capable people the demon race had. Kunpeng hadn't even made a move yet, and Bai Ze, Ji Meng, and Shang Yang alone had already surrounded Dong Wanggong and severely injured him.

Meanwhile, the rogue cultivators who usually followed Dong Wanggong kept their distance, fearing they might be implicated. They followed Dong Wanggong because Hongjun said he was the leader of the male immortals in the primordial world, but now that their lives were in danger, who would be willing to risk their lives as a pledge of allegiance?

Hongyun and Hongchen kept their distance, watching the show without getting involved.

In the novel, the Eastern King Duke died a more dignified death than in the present. After the demon race mastered the Zhou Tian Star Formation, they attacked Penglai. The Eastern King Duke was defeated and died by self-destruction. A wisp of his soul was collected by Laozi and reincarnated as Lü Dongbin.

Judging from the current situation, even Lü Dongbin might be gone!

With a loud "Bang!", Dongwanggong self-destructed and perished.

Hongyun shook her head: "Tsk tsk~ It would have been so much better if you had just stayed put. You had to come out and show off, and now look what happened!"

Although Hongchen didn't know what "ga le" meant, he knew it wasn't a compliment. He found it amusing, though; if anyone was restless, Hongyun was probably the most so. He had gone to great lengths to stop Hongyun from showing off, precisely because Hongyun loved excitement and trouble, and always stirred up big trouble. Now Hongyun was criticizing others, as if he himself were so docile!

"Let's go back!" Hongchen was worried about what Hongyun might do next. He didn't have the Earth Book, nor did he have the cultivation level of the original body. It was best to avoid it as much as possible.

Hongyun nodded. When he threw the recording stone into the gifts Taiyi was preparing for Laozi and Tongtian, the system gave him 50,000 points of moral failings. After that, he ignored the system while talking to Taiyi, and now he had exactly 600,000 points of moral failings, enough to sever his second corpse.

I need to hurry back to Wuzhuang Temple, go into seclusion, and sever my second corpse before coming out to play. Releasing both corpses then will be incredibly impressive. I'll show Tongtian what a mere evil corpse he is, daring to show it off!

After Zhen Yuanzi noticed that Hongyun and Hongchen had returned to Wuzhuang Temple, he went to Hongyun's room, only to find Hongchen standing at the door.

"Where is Hongyun?" Zhen Yuanzi asked, his hands behind his back and his expression unfriendly, as if he disliked his own corpse.

Hongyun smiled faintly: "Seclusion"

"Seclusion?" Zhen Yuanzi frowned in confusion. With Hongyun's personality, would he really think of seclusion without someone urging him to?
