Cloud Star.
The prosperous Luohai City was crowded with people. A huge temple stood in the center of the city, attracting countless cultivators to look up to it. Streams of light constantly gathered from all directions, as if a grand event was about to begin.
In front of the temple stairs.
Ancient Saint Luo Hongfei led tens of thousands of cultivators to stand quietly, his eyes full of reverence and yearning.
After waiting for a long ti.
Finally, ripples in the void spread out, and two people stepped out one after another, grabbing the attention of the whole audience like true gods descending to the world!
The smiling monk's eyes were full of compassion, and the Star Master Long Tian was covered in blood. The sharp contrast was shocking, and instantly shocked the tens of thousands of cultivators in the audience to bow down, shouting like overwhelming mountains and seas!
"Welco, Lord Star Master!"
"Welco, Lord Star Master!"
"Welco, Lord Star Master!"
...
Listening to the fanatical cheering like a tsunami and looking at the thousands of cultivators who were worshipping, Long Tian was montarily at a loss for words and didn't know how to respond.
This kind of scene was originally the result he longed for.
However, after experiencing trendous changes, the Demon Race could no longer tolerate him. Even if he won over Cloud Star from top to bottom by chance, it beca aningless.
Standing blankly for a few breaths, Long Tian looked confused.
The tornt of slaughtering his own kind grew stronger and stronger in this grand scene at this mont, constantly impacting his mind, leaving this forr Demon Race elite who once claid to be a genius with mixed feelings.
Looking up at Long Tian's quiet appearance, the various human cultivators beca even more fanatical.
Lord Star Master clearly fought against the demons and made a great contribution to the human race, but he didn't have the slightest intention of being arrogant about his achievents, and he didn't even open his mouth to ntion it...
This is what it ans to be highly respected!
This is what it ans to have the world in mind!
With this lord guarding Cloud Star, it can definitely regain its glory.
Ancient Saint Luo Hongfei raised his eyes and leaned back, his face overflowing with reverence. As he nodded excitedly, his emotions were already sowhat difficult to control. He hurriedly led the crowd up the long steps to approach and congratulate him!
"Lord Star Master, it is an eye-opener for us to be able to look up to your majestic presence in the battle just now. It is truly the fortune of all living beings that Cloud Star can wait for your awakening!"
"Lord Star Master is truly like a bright moon in the sky. Even with the demons in front of you, it is difficult to conceal even a ten-thousandth of your brilliant light!"
"That's absolutely true! Lord Star Master's cultivation base is unparalleled, and he still has such a righteous heart to protect the common people. He is truly a role model for our generation, and we will swear to follow him to the death from now on!"
"The Lord exterminated the demons and his cultivation base is monstrous. How dare the demonic scoundrels make trouble? The so-called formidable and invincible Demon Race is nothing more than this!"
"Fellow Daoist Feng is right. With Lord Star Master guarding our Cloud Star, who dares to claim to be invincible, and who dares to say they are undefeated?"
"To have the honor of seeing Lord Star Master, I have no regrets in this life!"
...
In just a few breaths, Long Tian was surrounded by cultivators.
Words of praise constantly exploded around him. Regardless of their cultivation level, age, or appearance, all kinds of cultivators turned into fanboys, their eyes full of fanaticism.
That kind of enthusiasm was unprecedented, and Long Tian could hardly handle it.
He had also fantasized that after completing the great task of Cloud Star, he would return to the Demon Race, be praised by the giants of various races, and even get so affirmation from Lord Demon Venerable, thereby establishing his core position in the Demon Race in one fell swoop.
He never expected...
The progress of things would be turned upside down.
At this mont, he was actually madly praised by the human race, establishing his position in reverse, almost becoming a veritable human Star Master. After all his hard work, it seed that the fake play was going to beco real!
After a long ti, why does it feel like he is the one who fell into the trap?
Inexplicably, he actually beca a traitor to the Demon Race, and he has to beco a Star Master to lead the human race?
Where the hell can I reason this out.
I am not a fucking traitor, not a traitor!
What a sin!
The words of praise around him sounded very pleasing to the ear, but Long Tian was already crying without tears. Due to Chen Kunpeng being beside him, he could only cooperate with the atmosphere and force a smile, looking a bit forced.
"Heh, hehe..."
A smile on his face, two lines of tears in his heart.
Long Tian suffered in silence. Listening to various words belittling the Demon Race felt like needles piercing his heart. The smile on his face beca increasingly bitter, and he constantly cupped his fists tactically to cover up his embarrassnt.
Seeing that Long Tian was about to break down, Chen Kunpeng was still smiling and pouring chicken soup.
"Benefactor."
"Since you have exterminated the demons and made a contribution, there is no need to be overly modest. The Buddha said: Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Those demons have committed grave sins. By transcending them, you have already saved countless lives, which is also a boundless rit."
"After this, you must make persistent efforts to properly transcend the demonic creatures."
"Excellent, excellent..."
It was clearly a life-and-death bloody battle just now, but in this monk's mouth, it actually beca transcending, and it was considered a rit. This is already outrageous enough, and he even threatened to make persistent efforts...
Listening to the aning of these words, he has to kill them all?
Are these words that a human can say?
Excellent my ass!
This monk is too fucking ferocious!
Looking at that harmless and kind smile, the corners of Long Tian's mouth twitched.
Helplessly forced by the situation, how could he dare to show the slightest abnormality?
Long Tian smiled awkwardly for a few breaths, then nodded obediently, continuing to play the role of Star Master.
"Hehe..."
"Master is absolutely right. From now on, I will definitely make persistent efforts to transcend the demonic creatures."
Who knew that as soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding cultivators were like they had been injected with chicken blood!
Led by Ancient Saint Luo Hongfei, they all raised their arms and shouted in agreent, inexplicably erupting with astonishing battle intent!
"Make persistent efforts, transcend the demonic creatures!"
"Make persistent efforts, transcend the demonic creatures!"
"Make persistent efforts, transcend the demonic creatures!"
...
The shouting was deafening and reached straight into the clouds!
Long Tian was in the center, and his heart skipped a beat.
Oh no...
Did his casual response ignite the fighting spirit of humans?
If this continues.
He will really beco a mortal enemy of the Demon Race, and even jumping into the star sea won't wash him clean. What should he do in the future!
It can't be that he really has to personally lead the human race to counterattack the Demon Race, right?
Hiss...
The more he thought about it, the guiltier he felt. Long Tian was so shocked that he secretly gasped!
Just at this mont of riding a tiger and finding it hard to get off.
Suddenly, soone squeezed out of the front row and walked straight towards him to bow!
"Greetings, Lord Star Master!"
Hearing the sound, Long Tian was startled.
Coming back to his senses and paying attention, he saw that the newcor was fat with sparse stubble, carrying a weird, greasy smile on his face, and dressed ordinarily, just like an ordinary mortal in the marketplace.
Normally, Long Tian would never care about this kind of character.
But after seeing the terrifying power of Yi Feng and Chen Kunpeng, he beca more and more wary of the humans of Cloud Star. Seeing the other party step out of the crowd at this mont, he was extrely vigilant in his heart.
Even in the Demon Race's Black Tower, Long Tian had never been so serious.
He opened his mouth to test the waters, his words extrely cautious.
"Greetings to you, sir. I wonder where you co from and what advice you have?"
As soon as the voice fell, the newcor smiled and replied.
"Lord Star Master."
"I am just a naless person, not worth ntioning."
"However, my family has followed the successive Star Masters since ancient tis. Unfortunately, the inheritance was cut off a hundred thousand years ago, and I have no fate to follow you. Today, hearing that Lord Star Master has awakened to slay demons, I specially ca to offer the badge of the previous Star Master - the Floating Cloud Diagram."
"Congratulations to Lord Star Master for making a great contribution. I hope the Lord will lead our Cloud Star from top to bottom to slay demons and reproduce the glory of ancient tis!"
Saying that, the man took out an ancient object from his arms.
The ancient artifact was shaped like a chess piece. Exquisitely engraved drifting clouds adorned its surface, and a sacred aura wreathed its entirety. It looked as though countless starlights had converged within it, causing the surrounding crowd to gasp in awe.
Imdiately after, the cultivators erupted into even more fanatical cheers, pushing the atmosphere to a climax!
"Exterminate the evil demons, restore our glory!"
Staring at the sudden congratulatory gift, Long Tian was completely dumbfounded.
"This..."
He had never intended to actually beco the Lord of Cloud Star; he only wanted to find a way to survive.
Why would soone suddenly hand over the heritage badge out of nowhere?
If he accepted this, wouldn't he truly beco the Lord of Cloud Star? Was he really supposed to lead the human race into war against the demon race? A dignified genius of the demon race, actually forced to beco a human Star Lord?
What the hell was this!
While Long Tian was still hesitating, Pork Rong had already shoved the badge into his hands.
The next mont.
Four figures stepped out from the crowd, bowing in unison with voices that shook the heavens and the earth!
"Respectfully welcoming the Star Lord!"
"We are the Star God Guards, protectors of the Star Lord for generations. From this day forth, we are willing to follow Your Excellency to exterminate the evil demons, and protect you with our flesh and blood!"
Their loud shouts reverberated, and a terrifying pressure dissipated into the surroundings.
Those four individuals all exuded an unfathomable aura, startling the cultivators from all sides into stepping back in awe. Even Long Tian was stunned silly.
When he took a closer look, his scalp went numb!
Holy crap...
Where did four such powerful humans pop out from? Even he couldn't sense the depths of their cultivation bases!
Such tyrannical existences actually wanted to protect a fake Star Lord like him?
What should he do?!
The scene suddenly fell silent, and a sacred, solemn atmosphere quietly spread.
Tens of thousands of gazes gathered upon him, and Long Tian felt an unprecedented pressure.
If he didn't agree to these people, his identity might be suspected. He might be exposed imdiately and perish right here. But if he agreed, he could only walk down this dark path to the end, thoroughly becoming a traitor to the demon race.
If he had to choose one, he might as well keep acting; perhaps there would be a slim chance of survival.
After a few breaths of inner struggle.
Long Tian had figured out the pros and cons, but the words felt as heavy as ten thousand pounds. His throat bobbed for a few monts before he stuttered out his stance to match the atmosphere.
"Uh..."
"Then, then from now on, let us work together with one heart to exterminate the demon race."
As soon as these words ca out.
Thousands of cultivators cheered like a tidal wave, and the human race's long-suppressed battle intent completely erupted!
Standing amidst the landslide of cheers.
Long Tian held the badge, his mind completely in a ss. Faintly, he felt the illusion of having dropped a rock on his own foot. It was as if so unseen force was pushing him forward, making him drift with the current like duckweed without roots.
Thinking about the future, where he might face the wrath of the entire demon race and the terrifying thods of the Demon Venerable, tears shimred in Long Tian's eyes. Among the cultivators who were shedding tears of excitent, his expression fit in surprisingly well, as if they had already rged into one family.
What a pity.
The joys and sorrows of different races were not connected.
The more excited and thrilled the surroundings beca, the more desolate Long Tian felt in his heart.
It is over.
I am completely screwed...
When the two races go to war in the future.
As soon as the higher-ups of the demon race discovered his existence, he would be the very first to have his bones ground to dust and ashes scattered!
Long Tian only wanted to put on an act to survive. He never expected that his fake acting would inexplicably beco real, and he even did the full set, solidifying his title as a traitor.
He expected even less that the human race would suddenly have their battle intent ignited, completely cutting off his path of survival.
This ti, he was absolutely dead at.
At the thought of his bleak future, Long Tian looked up at the sky bitterly. With a dazed look in his eyes, clear tears traced a perfect 45-degree arc down his face, filled with helplessness and despair.
Watching everything from afar.
Pork Rong smiled faintly, retreating after a successful mission and disappearing into the sea of people.
