Kong Xuan also returned to Wuzhuang Temple with Chu Xin. In the past few years, he had protected the human race and enjoyed their fortune, which greatly increased his cultivation level. He was only one step away from becoming a Quasi-Saint. When Chu Xin went to deliver the decree, it caused quite a stir, and Kong Xuan was also alerted. After understanding the situation, he remembered that he had not returned to his sect for a long time, so he came back with her.

"Disciple pays respects to Master and Saint Hongyun. I have been away from the sect for a long time, please forgive me, Master." As soon as Kong Xuan returned, he knelt before Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun to beg for forgiveness.

Zhen Yuanzi remained calm, but Hongyun spoke first, asking, "Have you suffered any injustices all these years away?"

Kong Xuan: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I have not suffered any injustice. With my sect as my backing, although I cannot say I can roam freely throughout the primordial world, no one dares to bully me!"

"Where's Shuangpin? He went out to look for you after you left the mountain. Why didn't he come back with you?" Hongyun looked at the empty courtyard in confusion. The little panda that used to stick around Kong Xuan was nowhere to be seen.

Kong Xuan was taken aback and stammered without saying a word.

Hongyun glanced at him and had already calculated what would happen after Shuangpin left the mountain.

It's truly unbelievable that Shuangpin, that little fellow, has actually become a demon king. But with his cultivation level of Taiyi Golden Immortal, is he really capable of holding the position of demon king? Moreover, even after becoming a demon king, Shuangpin doesn't stick close to Kong Xuan or report back to Wuzhuang Temple. Something just doesn't seem right.

"With your dual cultivation levels, you want to be a demon king? You're more like a snack for a demon king! Tell me, what did you do in all of this?"

Kong Xuan then spoke: "It was I who cultivated on this mountain. After Shuangpin came, I gathered a few lesser demons to serve me. Because of my name, many demons came to seek refuge with me. Over time, Miaoluo Mountain became famous. Now... the demons on more than a hundred nearby mountains all know that Shuangpin's backer is Wuzhuang Temple."

Hongyun's lips twitched, and Zhen Yuanzi's face immediately showed a hint of anger. Shuangpin wasn't even a disciple of Wuzhuang Temple, yet they were using Wuzhuang Temple's banner to recruit lesser demons without even a word to them.

"You were also aware of this matter?" Zhen Yuanzi stared at Kong Xuan, already showing signs of anger.

The human world is truly a wondrous place. One by one, they show no signs of cultivation in the mountains, but once they enter the mortal world, their nature changes. Not only do they become foolish, but they also become ignorant and incomprehensible. They can casually claim the title of saint.

If Kong Xuan knew about this, then it would be fine; he was Zhen Yuanzi's disciple, and it was Zhen Yuanzi who allowed him to invoke the banner of Wuzhuang Temple. But if Kong Xuan was initially unaware, then Shuangpin would be doomed.

"This disciple knows," Kong Xuan paused for a moment, then admitted.

Kong Xuan was not one to back down from his actions; if it were his will, he would have spoken up earlier. When he entered the mortal world, Zhen Yuanzi had said that Wuzhuang Temple was his backing, so he would not be punished for this matter.

It's clear he was unfairly blamed for the double-pinyin formula!

Since he's willing, let's assume he's telling the truth!

Hongyun said calmly, "Now that you've returned to the mountain, there's no need for you to stay at Miaoluo Mountain anymore. All you little demons, you may leave!"

As for the double-pinyin, Hongyun didn't mention his plans, but since he didn't want to come back, then he didn't need to.

Kong Xuan bowed his head: "Disciple obeys. I will go to Miaoluo Mountain to dismiss the little demons and bring Shuangpin back."

Kong Xuan understood Hongyun's meaning and knew that Hongyun's handling of the disciple had gone against his wishes, but he still wanted to plead for Shuangpin.
