271: Baidi!

Fang Bai was still very curious about that monstrous talent who had suddenly appeared.

After all, he had to see for himself someone who was even more impressive than he was.

"Since that person is already dead, why didn't the Demon Realm's Demon Ancestor take action to wipe out human civilization?"

Fang Bai asked about his confusion.

Ancestor Pei said slowly, "The Demon Ancestor is also dead."

"Ah? So they just ended up taking each other down?"

Fang Bai was stunned.

Ancestor Pei shook his head and said, "It wasn't exactly mutual destruction. That ancestor had already slain the Demon Ancestor and sealed its physical body in a forbidden land. However, for some unknown reason, that man never returned, and his whereabouts remain unknown to this day."

Fang Bai's mouth twitched. "Then what's the difference between that and mutual destruction?"

If he hasn't come back by now, isn't he just dead?

Ancestor Pei shook his head and sighed. "Whether he is alive or dead, this old man does not know. However, he was indeed the strongest martial artist from ancient times to the present. His achievements have never been reached by anyone since."

"Not even Old Man Wan?"

Fang Bai felt that Old Man Wan was still very impressive. After all, even a powerhouse like the Space Demon God was no match for him. Fang Bai even felt that if Old Man Wan had fought seriously, there was a high probability that the Space Demon God would have been slain by him!

Ancestor Pei narrowed his eyes. "This old man does not know."

"Logically speaking, although Old Man Wan's strength is great, this old man feels he cannot compare to that person."

"But he is also terrifying. After all, he is a newly ascended Ninth-Rank from the generation after mine. To be able to surpass old fellows like me is already extremely heaven-defying."

Ancestor Pei looked at Fang Bai and said, "Your talent might not even be equal to his."

Fang Bai raised an eyebrow. "I'm not happy hearing you say that. If I were his age, I'd definitely be more impressive than him!"

"Heh, perhaps. However, an unparallelled genius who hasn't grown up is ultimately just a genius, not an unparallelled powerhouse!"

Ancestor Pei's gaze was profound. "This old man has lived for hundreds of years. How many geniuses have I seen? But those who can make it to the end are very few... Those who shout the loudest every day are often the ones who die the fastest. Only the clever ones who develop low-key can live to the end."

Fang Bai was thoughtful. Should he also go to the Demon Realm to lay low and only come out after breaking through to the Ninth-Rank?

"Right, that person you mentioned, does he have a name?"

Ancestor Pei said with a solemn expression, "He has no name."

"No name? His mom didn't give him one?"

Fang Bai said with a strange expression.

Ancestor Pei's facial muscles twitched. This little brat really had no filter; everyone had to be cursed at by him.

"Actually, it's that no one knows his name. He appeared out of nowhere and stunned the entire era, yet no one knew his name. Or rather, those who knew his name are all dead."

Fang Bai curled his lip. "So he's just a jinx! Whoever knows him is unlucky!"

A certain someone: ... Ancestor Pei chuckled. "You brat, watch your tongue. Do you believe in the way of Karma?"

Fang Bai shook his head. "I don't believe in fate. I only believe in my own fists."

Ancestor Pei struck him down expressionlessly. "Unfortunately, your fists are too thin to beat fate."

"..."

This old fellow's ability to live so long relies entirely on his mouth, doesn't it?

Fang Bai had reason to suspect that this old geezer's enemies all died from his verbal onslaughts!

"Although no one knows his name, the world gave him a title: the White Emperor!"

White Emperor!

Fang Bai was surprised. How could this guy be like him, with 'White' in his name!

Ancestor Pei said indifferently, "His past was a blank slate, yet he suppressed everything with his own strength to become the emperor of the world. He was called the White Emperor, and after that, there was only one emperor in the world! It was him!"

"What a load of mystical nonsense..."

Fang Bai was unimpressed and said, "It's just a pity his era has passed. Next, I will be the second White Emperor! Oh no, I should be called the Heavenly Emperor Fang!"

Ancestor Pei gave him a strange look.

Being young is great! Mistaking ignorance for passion!

Who in their generation hadn't been passionate? They felt that if others could do it, they could too. It's just that so many geniuses fell halfway, and only a few reached the summit.

While they spoke, the two had already reached the depths of the space.

A few auras gradually began to probe from the surroundings.

However, after sensing the faint pressure on Fang Bai's body, many auras receded like the tide.

Ancestor Pei, on the other hand, was just like an ordinary person, having already achieved the realm of returning to one's true self.

Fang Bai opened his perception, then completely suppressed his own aura.

"Why suppress your aura?"

Ancestor Pei sensed Fang Bai's abnormality and asked in confusion.

Fang Bai grinned. "To attract those beasts over, of course!"

Ancestor Pei was silent for a moment, then reminded him, "Our goal this time is only the Demon God."

Fang Bai nodded. "Right, right, right, we're going to take down the Demon God. As for the others, if they want to come looking for death, they can't blame us!"

Fang Bai's heart was full of anticipation.

Damn! This guy beside me is a Ninth-Rank! A super backer. Won't those demon beasts be killed no matter how many come?

What's the difference between this and picking up money?

He had to pray that those beasts would lose their minds for once, and then let the old geezer take action.

As Fang Bai hid his aura, those hidden demon beasts became even more unscrupulous in casting their gazes upon them.

When the two walked to the edge of a lake, some demon beasts finally couldn't hold back!

Splash!

The water surface suddenly exploded, and a giant Toothed Fish Monster lunged out, opening its bloody maw to bite at the two!

But the two remained motionless. It wasn't until the fish monster was less than five meters away from them that their expressions turned strange.

Bang!

The fish monster was as if struck by lightning; its entire body fell to the side, its aura completely gone.

Ancestor Pei stared at Fang Bai. "Why didn't you take action?"

Fang Bai blinked and said with an innocent face, "I thought you were going to take action."

Ancestor Pei was silent. He had thought Fang Bai would take action.

"Didn't you want to attract those minor demons and then have this old man take action?"

Fang Bai nodded as if it were only natural. "Didn't my master ask you to keep me safe? Of course you have to protect me!"

Ancestor Pei: ... He was a bit pained. Despite having lived for so many years, he felt things were a bit ridiculous right now.

Before they could finish their conversation, the surrounding demon beasts appeared one after another, boldly attacking them!

A single move set everything in motion!

These demon beasts clearly wanted to kill these two humans here!

Ancestor Pei lifted his cane and then lightly tapped the ground!

Hum!

A terrifying wave of air rapidly spread, and all the demon beasts within several miles simultaneously dropped dead!

All of them!

Including Eighth-Rank Demon Lords!

And this was just a casual strike from him!

Fang Bai swallowed hard, thinking to himself that this old geezer really was fierce!

Ancestor Pei pointed to the west and said to Fang Bai, "One hundred miles in that direction is where that Demon God is. If you can't get there within half an hour..."

Fang Bai's eyes widened. "Old geezer, do you have to be so petty?!"
