Even Ye Guhong, a man proud to his very core, had beco deeply concerned for him after just a single eting. If such a person were allowed to grow normally, he was bound to beco a pillar of the Human Race and hold up a glorious sky for them. It was just a pity...
We are incompetent, the sinners of the Human Race, destined to be infamous for all eternity... the Sage lanted inwardly. Shaking his head, unable to face Wang Xiu, he vanished on the spot.
The rest of the Saints sighed and turned to leave. Zhang Yunting and Yun Wuxin gave Wang Xiu a deep look, hesitating to speak, but in the end, they too shook their heads and left.
The place beca quiet, leaving only Wang Xiu behind.
"Well, kid, have you finally given up?" Guba asked smugly.
"Perhaps," Wang Xiu smiled, his face showing no trace of sorrow.
"You humans are really sothing else... In your own words, you’re a real man!" Guba exclaid with sincere admiration. So much ti had passed, with so many twists and turns. Even those lofty Saints of the Human Race had been on an emotional rollercoaster, nearly losing their composure countless tis under his verbal provocations. Yet Wang Xiu, the one at the center of it all, had remained calm from beginning to end, as if it had nothing to do with him. Even Guba couldn’t help but admire that level of composure. If they weren’t adversaries, he really would have liked to befriend him.
"It’s a sha you’re from the Human Race. Soone like you... I can’t possibly allow you to grow unchecked. Otherwise, you would beco a disaster for my clan!" Guba had already thrown caution to the wind and decided to lay his cards on the table.
"Are you that afraid of ? Doesn’t your Demon Race always boast about being descendants of the Demon Gods, with noble bloodlines, viewing the Human Race as nothing more than weeds?" Wang Xiu replied with a smile.
"Hah, you don’t need to provoke ! I have lived through endless ages. My will is as steadfast as the deepest ocean; nothing can shake it," Guba declared proudly. "Your Human Race, despite its obvious weaknesses and lack of racial talents, must be acknowledged... you truly are the favored children of destiny! Every so often, a few peerless Supres erge, so absurdly powerful it’s difficult to comprehend! They give my clan a real headache! Kid, you originally had such an opportunity. It’s just a pity you ran into ..."
[Ding!]

Wang Xiu took a sharp, inward breath.
Incredible! he thought, secretly delighted.
"You really are straightforward. Since that’s the case, I won’t pretend anymore..." Wang Xiu suddenly sighed, looking utterly exhausted. "Honestly, I originally thought that even with your profound thods, your body is just a remnant. With hundreds of our Saints here, we’d surely find a way to break your technique. I never expected your power to be this formidable!"
"Hahaha..." Guba was imnsely pleased by this and boasted loudly, "But of course! The Ghost God Sha is a legacy technique of my Nether Demon Clan, passed down from the Supre Demon God himself! Its tier is far beyond anything your Human Race can imagine! Forget a few hundred Saints; even stronger beings would be helpless! Unless a Great Emperor appears, all else is aningless!"
[Ding!]
[Detected soone bragging nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining Mana 2,888!]
Guba was making wildly arrogant claims. The Ghost God Sha was indeed powerful, but its effectiveness still depended on the user. With the strength of his current body, he was a long way from being able to render such high-level powerhouses helpless. Moreover, if he truly encountered a being above the rank of Quasi-Emperor, he might not succeed even if a Nether Demon Clan expert of the sa realm sacrificed themselves to use the Ghost God Sha. The abilities of such an existence were far beyond what an ordinary person could imagine. There was a chance he would die and his target would be completely unhard.
"The Nether Demon Clan? Are they really that strong?" Wang Xiu asked, his expression unchanged despite feeling the mana surging wildly within him. He didn’t expose the bluff, instead continuing his inquiry with a look of intense curiosity.
"Drop the ’are they’!" Guba huffed, placing his hands on his hips and craning his neck toward the sky. "Our lineage is ancient, tracing back to the supre Demon God. Even within the entire Void Demon Realm, there are barely a handful of clans that can be ntioned in the sa breath as ours!"
[Ding!]
[Detected soone bragging nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining Mana 2,888!]
"I see! So does this an I truly have no chance at all?" Wang Xiu said, sighing to himself with a dejected expression.
"Well... that isn’t necessarily the case!" Guba was about to confirm, but then he recalled sothing, and a sly glint appeared in his eyes.
"What do you an?"
"If you agree to pledge your allegiance to the great Demon God, then... everything might be negotiable!" Guba’s voice was eerie and filled with seductive power, his eyes flashing with a dangerous light.
This idea had appeared out of nowhere, but it instantly took root in his mind. It was an excellent idea! If he could turn Wang Xiu into his own demon servant, wouldn’t that be a massive profit? This was a seedling with the potential to beco a Supre of the Human Race! The possessor of a Twelve-color Nascent Soul, sothing rarely seen in all of history! His future achievents would be limitless. He could dominate an entire era! As long as I can make him serve , what great undertaking could I not achieve?
"In that case, there’s nothing to discuss," Wang Xiu imdiately and decisively refused.
"Don’t be so quick to refuse, young man. You need to learn to assess the situation and weigh the pros and cons..." Guba, however, had his mind set. He licked his lips, his gaze greedy as he continued his temptation, "Think about it carefully. With your talent, as long as you survive, you’re destined for limitless heights. If it all ends here, won’t that be a tragic injustice?"
"...Dying for the Human Race is no injustice," Wang Xiu said, pausing for a mont and showing a flicker of temptation before his resolve hardened once more.
"Pedantic!" Guba saw his opening and declared righteously, "This talk of Human Race and Demon Race is all just narrow-minded thinking! In the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, there are countless races. Your Cangyuan Realm is a small place; you haven’t seen the true scope of the world! If one day you venture into a larger world and witness the Myriad Clans living together in harmony, you’ll realize that this so-called racial righteousness really isn’t that important! Your Human Race is in decline precisely because of this narrow-mindedness, unable to tolerate other clans. In contrast, our Demon Race embraces all, welcoming any capable individual!"
[Ding!]

"Don’t try to deceive . Is the Demon Race really as good as you say?" Wang Xiu questioned, though a hint of curiosity flickered deep in his eyes.
"Are you kidding ? I, the great Emperor Guba, am a top figure in the entire Void Demon Realm! Why would I stoop to deceiving a child like you?" Guba blustered, as if he’d been gravely insulted. "I am only trying to persuade you out of respect for your talent, reluctant to see you perish here. Don’t be ungrateful! In my life, the one thing I hate most are liars!"
This last part was true. If it weren’t for that con artist, how could he have ended up in this state? A grand feast of several hundred Saints was promised, but he only got one. He had to handle the rest himself. Damn it!
[Ding!]

A small smile tugged at the corners of Wang Xiu’s mouth. He was so moved he almost burst into tears.
It’s here! It’s finally here! The feeling of using a cheat! Keep boasting, don’t you stop!
