Tang San said, "There\'s nothing we can do about that; it\'s not something we can control. Now it all depends on how long the Peacock Demon King can hold out, and the extent of its injuries this time."

Zhang Haoxuan silently nodded and said, "We can only take things one step at a time now. Frankly, compared to the organization\'s original plan, I\'m more optimistic about your future. If you can achieve God Rank someday, then you will undoubtedly bring true hope to humanity. You are the first I believe has the potential to become a Great Demon King, even more so than Pretty Girl."

Tang San smiled and said, "I always feel that if it\'s about becoming a Great Demon King, Sister Pretty Girl will certainly do it faster than me."

"Oh? You think highly of her?" Zhang Haoxuan asked in surprise.

Tang San said, "Yes! She is very talented, and, I believe, also very lucky."

Zhang Haoxuan warned, "You\'d better limit your contact with her, this goes for your other identity as well."

"Hmm." Tang San noncommittally agreed, but how could he possibly reduce contact with Pretty Girl?

City Lord Manor.

In the dim quiet chamber, the Peacock Demon King sat cross-legged, his complexion pale. The aura emanating from his body was clearly unstable or even decaying. Nearly half of his peacock-blue hair had turned white, the lifeless kind of white.

"Huff—" He exhaled a long breath and slowly opened his eyes.

His dull eyes held a hint of mockery, just like when he faced the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor.

"In the end, I\'ve managed to hold on, haven\'t I? Do you think you\'ve won? You will always be the loser, always. That will never change." Muttering to himself, he stood up, walked toward the wall, and pressed his right hand against it.

Immediately, the wall noiselessly slid open, revealing a hidden passage.

The Peacock Demon King, with slightly unsteady steps, walked into the passage.

Flying Vehicle.

The Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor Lin Ximo slowly opened his eyes, unable to hold back a mouthful of fresh blood. The blood sprayed into the air, turning into sparkling glimmers that dissipated.

For someone with a cultivation base at his level to not be able to control his injuries, they must be very severe.

The Peacock Demon King\'s last use of Star Shift, fueled by the burning of ancestral fortune, had dealt him the most serious damage. It nearly shook his very foundation.

With furrowed brows, the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor Lin Ximo\'s eyes narrowed slightly, reflecting deep contemplation and thoughtfulness.

The Peacock Demon King burned his ancestral power in a desperate struggle, which was within his expectations. Given the heritage of the Peacock Demon Clan, he had not anticipated that he would be able to completely obliterate the entire clan in one go, but his plan had always been to at least kill the Peacock Demon King, erasing his greatest opponent from those years past. Although the Peacock Demon Clan still possessed existences at the Great Demon King level, those who were not of the direct Great Demon Emperor bloodline were not a concern. It wouldn\'t take long for him to take back Jiali City, and to take her back as well.

However, what he did not anticipate was that the Peacock Demon King was stronger than he imagined. Even though he had not reached the Great Demon Emperor level, he was already at the peak within the Great Demon King realm. Moreover, he had used the power of the ancestral fortune, which resulted in more severe injuries than expected. What was most crucial was the last appearance of the Sea God from the Endless Blue Ocean, what was that all about?

That was clearly a pressure emanating from a being at the Demon Emperor level. Even though it wasn\'t the real body, it was enough to give him a great shock.

The Ancestral Court of the Endless Blue Ocean had been explored before, and not just by him but also by multiple beings at the Great Demon Emperor level. The Endless Blue Ocean was vast, with numerous members of the Sea Clan living within it, including many powerful beings. But none of the investigations had ever found a presence at the Great Demon Emperor level. Furthermore, the ocean was not suitable for the lives of the Monster Clan and the Spirit Clan. Especially for the Spirit Clan, who had a strong aversion to the ocean. Therefore, the Monster Clan had no intentions of expanding into the ocean, as the land resources of the Demon Monster Land were already inexhaustible.

The appearance of this Sea God undoubtedly shattered the Ancestral Court\'s assessment of the Endless Blue Ocean. The existence of a being at the Great Demon Emperor level changed everything! Moreover, it seemed to be related to Jiali City. This matter must be reported to the Ancestral Court. If the Endless Blue Ocean now housed a Great Demon Emperor, then perhaps it was time to take action. This could also be the best opportunity for him to continue putting pressure on Jiali City.

Wang Qing, wait for me, I will return.

Great Monster Emperor Lin Ximo was well aware that even though he had suffered serious injuries this time, Peacock Demon King Wang Qing would only be more severely injured. After all, he had burned his Peacock Golden Crown. This meant that he would never be able to become the Great Demon Emperor, not even a sliver of a chance. By burning his origin, he was burning his lifespan. Even if he didn\'t die this time, his cultivation base would drop, especially his lifespan would suffer greatly. The fate of not living past a hundred would inevitably befall this Peacock Demon King.

Thinking of this, Lin Ximo\'s mood improved considerably. Now, he needed to think about how to operate after returning to the Ancestral Court to secure more benefits for himself.

Jiali City, Jiali Plaza.

Daybreak had come, and at this time of the day, Pretty Girl Milk Tea Shop should have been open. But today was an exception, the shop was closed, and the window that usually served milk tea was not opened.

Su Qin silently looked at the man in front of her, her expression somewhat complicated.

"He\'s been to see you, hasn\'t he?" said the Peacock Demon King, pale-faced and leaning slantingly on a couch.

"Mhm," Su Qin silently nodded.

"Do you still hate him?" the Peacock Demon King sighed and asked again.

"What do you think?" Su Qin looked at him, a few more hints of coldness in her eyes.

"I\'m sorry, I shouldn\'t have asked that," the Peacock Demon King said apologetically.

Su Qin shook her head, "He\'s still as arrogant as ever, forever believing that only what he thinks is right, forever self-centered. It was my mistake to trust him back then."

The Peacock Demon King sighed, "How I wish that, when you made your choice back then, you had, even with ulterior motives, chosen me."

Su Qin said, "Everyone around you must think you\'re an extraordinarily smart Demon King, but they don\'t know that you\'re actually a foolish bubbling fool. Of all the monsters I\'ve ever seen, you\'re the most foolish."

The Peacock Demon King laughed, "Yes! You\'re right, I\'m the most foolish one. As a child, my father always said I was rebellious, always doing the opposite of what he asked. Despite having the best talent, I refused to cultivate and insisted on wasting it. The more he hit me, the more I rebelled. Back then, I would think, why does he get to arrange my life? Why do I have to do whatever he tells me to? Just because he\'s my father? Does being born to him give him the right to control everything about me? Back then, my rebelliousness was something I don\'t even dare to recall now. I did a lot of things that were particularly foolish."

"Until the day I saw you for the first time. It was then I realized that I was also wrong. You were right, Lin Ximo is incredibly self-centered, but how many are not self-centered in the Monster Clan? I am also very self-centered and always felt that I was correct. But in that moment, for the first time, I recognized my mistake. The first time I saw you, my first impression was what true beauty is. You were the first to introduce the concept of beauty to my heart. But when I wanted to pursue you, Lin Ximo ruthlessly beat me. At that time, I absolutely refused to cultivate, relying solely on the growth of my bloodline; how could I be his match? It was also from that time, I suddenly realized that my father was right, that strength is the foundation of everything. I truly needed strength. So, I began to put in the effort. Nobody knows that it was actually for you that I later became my father\'s successor, the Peacock Demon King. In reality, that was not what I wanted. If Lin Ximo hadn\'t been there and you had simply been with me, maybe I would still be a spoiled brat."
