107: Who supports and who opposes the position of leader?

The corners of Lu Yuan's mouth curled into a cold and mocking arc.

"You just thought of holding the Demonic Path Assembly to deal with me, and now you've sent me such a grand gift."

"Since you are so polite, I will also unceremoniously accept your last bit of assets."

Fairy Lengyue, standing to the side, watched Lu Yuan's somewhat creepy smile and couldn't help but shiver.

Although she didn't know what her master had discovered, she had a hunch.

Someone was about to be in big trouble.

And it was very likely Gu Changge, who was currently jumping around in the Heavenly Demon Sect.

"Leng Yue."

Lu Yuan turned around, his tone returning to calm, yet it carried an air of murderous intent.

"Summon all Void Refining and Soul Transformation Cultivators of Guanghan Palace, and prepare the troops."

"Master, where are we going?" Fairy Lengyue asked hurriedly.

Lu Yuan cast his gaze toward the distant south, the direction where the Heavenly Demon Sect was located.

"To attend the Demonic Path Assembly."

"And by the way, destroy the Heavenly Demon Sect."

Rakshasa Kingdom, Heavenly Demon Sect headquarters.

Today, the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range was filled with monstrous Devilish Qi that blotted out the sun and clouds.

Above the towering main peak, a massive black altar hovered in the air, with six hundred-foot-tall Demon God banners erected around it, snapping in the wind.

Under each banner sat tens of thousands of Demonic Cultivators, their Auras merging into one, causing the Void Realm for ten thousand miles around to take on a suffocating dark red hue.

This was a grand event unseen by the Six Demonic Sects for thousands of years—the Demonic Path Assembly.

The Heavenly Demon Sect, Wanhun Hall, Blood God Sect, Shiyin Sect, Blissful Union Sect, and Profound Yin Sect—the Sect leaders, Elders, and core elites of the six top Demonic forces were gathered here today.

In the center of the altar, a throne carved from ten-thousand-year black magic crystal hung high.

Gu Changge was dressed in a black-gold Dragon-patterned robe, wearing a flat-topped crown. His expression was cold and stern, and it seemed as if an abyss was swirling within his eyes.

Although he was only at the Early Stage of Void Refining, the overbearing Aura he exuded—looking down on the world as if only he reigned supreme—made many of the Late-Stage Void Refinement old monsters present feel a palpitation of the heart.

Behind him stood three old men with terrifying Auras.

The one in the middle had white hair and beard, a withered face, and eyes that were one black and one white, with no distinction between whites and pupils, as if containing the mysteries of life and death.

He was Gu Changge's biological grandfather, the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Gu Daoxuan.

His Peak of Refinement Void cultivation was restrained, and the surrounding space constantly collapsed and reorganized with his breathing; clearly, he had already touched that invisible barrier of the Body Integration Stage, making him a true Half-step Body Integration!

The one on the left was as sturdy as an iron tower, his muscles knotted, his skin bronze-colored, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.

This was the Second Elder, Tu Wanli, who specialized in the Law of Strength and the Law of Gold. His Physical Body was so strong that it was said he could withstand a Top-Grade Spiritual Treasure head-on.

The one on the right had a flickering figure, his face hidden in a mist, sometimes male, sometimes female, sometimes old, sometimes young, making him unpredictable. He was the Third Elder, the Thousand Illusions Demonic Lord, the ancestor of manipulating human hearts.

This was the foundation of the Heavenly Demon Sect, a terrifying strength sufficient to suppress the entire Demonic Path.

"Everyone."

Gu Changge stood up slowly, his gaze like a blade, sweeping across the entire venue.

"The situation in the Eastern Wasteland has changed greatly. The Righteous Path's Azure Cloud Sect has emerged suddenly, and with Guanghan Palace colluding with them, they are eyeing my Demonic Path like tigers."

"And my Heavenly Demon Sect's Saintess fell at the hands of Guanghan Palace!"

"A loose sand will eventually be broken one by one."

"Therefore, I propose that the six Sects unite to form a Demonic Path Alliance to resist the external enemy together."

Speaking to this point, he paused, his voice suddenly raised, carrying an unquestionable dominance: "And for this position of Alliance Leader, I will not yield."

"Who approves? Who opposes?"

As his voice fell, the entire venue was deathly silent.

The Elders of the various Sects looked at each other, their eyes flickering, but no one dared to stand up first.

"Hmph, you yellow-mouthed child, such big words!"

Just then, a cold snort broke the silence.

In the camp of the Profound Yin Sect, an old man wearing a crimson fire robe with hair burning like flames stepped out.

The Xuanyin Old Demon!

Flames rose around him; they were not ordinary fire, but dark red Asura Sacred Fire, and within the burning, one could faintly hear the wailing of fierce ghosts.

"Gu Changge, although you are a Prodigy rarely seen in a hundred years in the Heavenly Demon Sect, you are currently only at the Early Stage of Void Refining."

"Want to be the Alliance Leader? First, ask if the fire in my hands agrees!"

"The Other Shore Flower Blooms!"

The Xuanyin Old Demon did not waste any words, directly attacking suddenly, unleashing a Treasured Art of the Transformation-Grade.

Boom!

He formed seals with his hands, and endless Asura Sacred Fire gathered behind him, instantly transforming into a blood-colored Other Shore Flower that blotted out the sky.

The flower blooms for a thousand years, falls for a thousand years, and the flower and leaves never meet.

This Other Shore Flower was extremely magnificent, yet extremely dangerous.

Each petal was condensed from the purest Law of Fire, carrying the terrifying power to burn the Void Realm and save all living beings, covering Gu Changge's head.

This strike was enough to instantly severely injure an ordinary Middle Stage Void Refining Cultivator!

However.

Facing this overwhelming sea of fire, Gu Changge didn't even lift an eyelid, the corners of his mouth curling into a contemptuous sneer.

"A grain of rice also dares to shine."

"Since you are not convinced, I will beat you until you are."

"Yellow Springs Catastrophe!"

Gu Changge pressed one hand downward, unleashing a Dao-Grade Treasured Art.

Rumble!

The Void Realm cracked open, and a turbid, withered yellow river, exuding a nauseating breath of decay and death, surged out from the Void Realm.

yellow springs water!

The moment this great river appeared, all vitality in the world withered rapidly.

Sizzle!

That seemingly overbearing Other Shore Flower, the moment it touched the yellow springs water, began to extinguish and decay, its light rapidly dimming.

Immediately after.

The Yellow Springs river did not slow down, slamming heavily into the Xuanyin Old Demon.

"Pfft!"

The Xuanyin Old Demon was struck as if by lightning, his entire body sent flying hundreds of feet by the turbid yellow springs water. His protective flames were completely extinguished, he spat out blood wildly, and his Aura instantly withered to the extreme.

He struggled to stand up, only to find that the Law of Fire in his body was tightly suppressed by a cold Yellow Springs Death Qi, making it impossible to mobilize even a single bit.

One move!

Just one move, and it severely injured the Early Stage Void Refining Xuanyin Old Demon!

"Hiss—"

A collective gasp of cold air resounded throughout the venue.

Everyone looked in shock at the young figure standing on the high platform, their eyes filled with disbelief.

"This... what kind of Divine Ability is this? It can actually suppress the Asura Sacred Fire?"

"Gu Changge is only at the Early Stage of Void Refining, yet he has such combat power? He is simply a Prodigy!"

"Heaven bless my Demonic Path! This child is gifted, truly a peerless Genius that my Demonic Path hasn't seen in ten thousand years!"

Those present did not know that Gu Changge was the Reincarnation of the Devil Emperor; they only thought he was peerlessly gifted, and that fighting across ranks was as easy as drinking water, so reverence spontaneously arose in their hearts.

The Xuanyin Old Demon's face was pale. Looking at the high-and-mighty Gu Changge, a flash of dejection and fear crossed his eyes.
