Primordial Era: I, the Thirteenth Witch, had my innermost thoughts overheard by my older siblings.

Extending to this day,

Ye Kai has only been here for three or four thousand years!

In three or four thousand years, he not only broke through to the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, but also mastered the body of the Ancestral Witch, and even had spiritual treasures such as the Reincarnation Purple Lotus and the Energy Gourd by his side, making him stronger than the vast majority of beings in the prehistoric world!

Even if his cultivation level remained unchanged for three thousand years, it was only because he was busy with other things and didn't have time to break through!

therefore,

Ye Kai naturally wouldn't feel saddened just because he saw Taiyi and the others achieve sainthood by severing their corpses.

In contrast,

Since these people have all had their corpses severed, they have fallen into the trap set by Heaven.

Ye Kai's eyes narrowed slightly as a thought flashed through his mind.

"A scheme orchestrated by Heaven?"

"Slaying a corpse brings no benefit? Instead, it makes you a target of their scheme?"

"So all our previous attempts to comfort them were for nothing?"

"Hahaha……"

"..."

Upon hearing Ye Kai's thoughts, Di Jiang and the others were taken aback for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

Although their words of comfort were in vain, they were all relieved to know that Ye Kai was alright.

At this moment, Taiyi was unaware of Ye Kai and the others' thoughts. "You still want to surpass me? A fool's dream! You should have realized by now that I've already severed my corpse and become a saint, far surpassing you!"

"Oh, so what?"

Upon hearing Taiyi's words, Ye Kai remained neither sad nor happy, but instead asked with a slightly teasing tone.

"So what? Someone like you who only relies on others to take care of him doesn't even deserve to say that!"

Hearing Ye Kai's retort, a cold glint flashed in Taiyi's eyes. "If it weren't for the protection of other Ancestral Witches, what would you be? Would you even be worthy to come here with us to listen to the Dao?"

[Heh, deliberately trying to provoke me?]

【Very well! Let's see what tricks you're up to!】

Upon hearing Taiyi's words, a glint of light flashed in Ye Kai's eyes, but he didn't seem to care at all.

Dijiang and the others originally wanted to stand up for Ye Kai, but when they heard Ye Kai's heartfelt words, they temporarily suppressed their thoughts.

After all, Ye Kai has always been very resourceful, so since he thinks this way, we might as well let him go ahead and do it.

Anyway, if anything happens, they'll protect you!

Ye Kai's expression hardened slightly, and a hint of anger seemed to appear in his eyes. "Even without my older brother and sister to take care of me, I would definitely have made it here!"

"Hmph! They fell for the trap! They really overestimated themselves!"

Upon hearing Ye Kai's words, Taiyi sneered. What they feared were the Ancestral Witches like Dijiang, not Ye Kai.

After all, Ye Kai hadn't really made a move before, whether in Zixiao Palace or on Buzhou Mountain.

Ye Kai was able to obtain the Zixiao Palace futon and the innate gourd vine on Buzhou Mountain by relying on the power of the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

It was for this reason that Taiyi secretly made up his mind when he saw Ye Kai coming over.

The two previous defeats had caused the demon race to lose face, so even if the futon was useless, they still wanted to snatch it.

This is to prove the power of his demon race!

Thinking of this, Taiyi no longer concealed his intentions and immediately challenged, "Is that so? In that case, do you dare to make a bet with me? If you lose, you have to give up the prayer mat!"

[A bet? So that's what it was about.]

Upon hearing Taiyi's provocation, Ye Kai was taken aback and immediately understood Taiyi's purpose.

Dijiang and his men's expressions hardened, and their brows furrowed with anger!

"A bet? Come on, I'll bet with you!"

"Bullying the thirteenth brother is a skill? If you want to fight, I'll take you on!"

"You worthless bird, you dare ask for that prayer mat?!"

"..."

Di Jiang and the others focused their minds and unleashed their full power of the laws.

Not to mention that they snatched the futon, they also overheard the purpose of the futon from Ye Kai's voice.

They absolutely cannot let Taiyi take away the position of sainthood, given how important this relationship is!

after all,

This is Ye Kai's great opportunity!

Seeing Dijiang and the others' behavior warmed Ye Kai's heart, but he already had his own plans in mind.

"Big brother, second brother, don't worry, leave this to me!"

Ye Kai immediately tried to persuade Di Jiang and the others.

To outsiders, he seemed genuinely enraged by Taiyi.

However, Ye Kai remained unusually calm.

[They probably don't care about a mere prayer mat. He's only doing this to save face. In that case, I'll take this opportunity to prove my strength!]

[Neither the universal chargers my older brother and sister provided, nor the ones I obtained during my seclusion, had a chance to verify.]

[Besides, even if I lose, it doesn't matter. After all, my brothers took the cushion from me, so what does it have to do with me winning or losing?]

……

A series of thoughts entered Di Jiang and the others' minds.

Upon hearing these heartfelt words, Dijiang and the others were all taken aback.

"That's right, we stole the prayer mat. Even if our underlings lost, we won't admit defeat. What can they do about it?"

"I was in seclusion during my previous spiritual practice, and I haven't even used the universal charger I refined yet. I'd appreciate it if you could give it a try."

"Indeed, let's just consider it as giving Thirteenth Brother some experience."

"..."

As Dijiang and the others discussed this, they had already made their decision in secret.

At that moment, a glint flashed in Di Jiang's eyes, and he feigned hesitation before agreeing, "Alright, since you put it that way, I'll leave it to you. Do whatever you want, we'll back you up!"

As he said this, his body trembled, and the laws of space erupted once more, shattering the surrounding chaotic space.

"Thank you so much, brother!"

When Ye Kai saw that Di Jiang had agreed, he was overjoyed.

I had prepared quite a few arguments, but I didn't expect my brother to agree so readily. That's wonderful!

Not only Ye Kai,

When Di Jun and Lao Tzu saw this, they were both taken aback and somewhat surprised.

"You just agree like that?"

"This is spoiling Ye Kai way too much!"

"..."

As they said this, many people secretly envied them.

After all, favoritism is not just about protecting one's own offspring, but also about indulging them by always having a safety net no matter what happens!

At that moment, Ye Kai cracked his knuckles and said, "You little rascal, tell me, how should we make the bet?"

"Didn't I just say that?"

Upon hearing Ye Kai's question, Taiyi was taken aback and his expression darkened slightly.

"You only said what would happen if I lost, but you didn't say what would happen if you lost?"

Ye Kai laughed and said, "How about you lose and I can play with your broken bell?"

As he said this, his gaze fell upon the Eastern Emperor Bell.

"The Broken Bell... the Eastern Emperor Bell?!"

"He actually had designs on the Eastern Emperor Bell!"

"This is a broken bell? This is a supreme innate treasure!"

"..."

Upon hearing Ye Kai's words, everyone was taken aback at first, but then they realized what he meant.

Taiyi wanted Ye Kai's futon to restore the power of the demon race, but he never expected that Ye Kai was actually eyeing his Eastern Emperor Bell.

For a time, it was really hard to say who was the hunter and who was the prey!

"The Eastern Emperor Bell? Your futon can only enhance your comprehension at best. You want me to gamble with you using the Eastern Emperor Bell? You're dreaming!"

Tai's expression was slightly gloomy, and he didn't look very good.

He thought he had successfully provoked Ye Kai, but he never expected that Ye Kai was actually plotting against him!

This made him lose face!

Ye Kai didn't care about Taiyi's reaction. Instead, he chuckled and said, "Oh? So what are you going to bet with me? You can't just let me be the stake, can you?"
