Fairy and Demon Gods

Chapter 461 Warning
The two demon emperors, feeling disappointed and tricked, were naturally unwilling to accept it.

Moreover, by subduing Zhu Yan, allying with Tu Shan, and rescuing Kui Niu, he has in some way replaced its ecological niche!

If they were to be considered rivals, the two demon emperors would naturally not mind kicking someone when they're down!

Even though I didn't mean it, it's hard to avoid others overthinking and taking offense.

Kunpeng was also helpless. Resources (including manpower) are limited after all. Even if he didn't fight for them, others would snatch them away. In that case, he would be the one to benefit.

No, if you lack strength and influence, being marginalized will only make you more passive and unable to control your own destiny!
Isn't this just a replica of the Kunpeng from its previous life?

We must firmly grasp the initiative in our own hands; how can our destiny be controlled by outsiders?

As for the Three Pure Ones, Kunpeng knew them perfectly well.

At that time, he echoed Hongjun and acted as a mouthpiece, which may have aroused the dissatisfaction of the Three Pure Ones, after all, they claimed to be the true successors of Pangu and the natural world he created.

In addition, you can obtain the treasures of Buzhou Mountain (including the Three Lights Divine Water and the Nine Heavens Breath Soil) and obtain a banana tree/leaf.

Furthermore, Yuan Feng entrusted the Phoenix Clan with the task of taking charge of the Flame Light Banner, and so on, all of which deviated from his previous life!

The Three Pure Ones, with their profound Taoist cultivation, sensed something in the darkness and probably felt that they had stolen their opportunity, and were undoubtedly furious behind their backs!

Moreover, Yuanshi had a very high opinion of himself and a deep prejudice against demons and beasts. Even though he was a primordial deity, he could not guarantee that he would not be verbally attacked and denounced as "a creature with fur and horns, born from moisture and eggs".

He, who prides himself on being from a prestigious and orthodox lineage, has the most severe sectarian prejudice, which is deeply ingrained in his bones.

In his eyes, the two demon emperors, born of noble lineage and nurtured by the sun, were probably nothing special.

In many later prehistoric novels, he sided with Zhunti, denigrated Kunpeng, and even brazenly attacked him, together driving Kunpeng off his saintly position. Whether this action forged a deep friendship with the two Western Saints, laying the groundwork for future support in the Investiture of the Gods war, or whether the two sides had colluded beforehand, Kunpeng had no idea and did not want to speculate; it merely flashed through his mind!

Kunpeng doesn't know what Yuanshi will do in this life, but he will definitely be more vigilant and take precautions!

At this moment, Kunpeng had sorted out his thoughts and his mind was suddenly clear. Since he was well aware of the causes and consequences, he would naturally take some measures to deal with them. He would not be confused and bewildered when the time came, making a fool of himself!
He was both moved and relieved, realizing that he had grasped the warning signal silently contained in the generous assistance from the Northern Wilderness!
From the hesitation of Fuxi and his sister to the warning from the will of the Northern Wilderness, Kunpeng thought a lot. When he looked at the southern sky, his expression was even more complicated and indescribable, and his heart was filled with excitement.

At this point, how could he not know that Yuan Feng was also making a desperate gamble, risking her life, the rise and fall of her clan to support him?

Since Yuan Feng took his place among the Four Symbols and merged with the Dao, he has been in charge of the Seven Mansions of the South. His cultivation has long been incredibly high, and he is able to comprehend and perceive the subtle changes in the secrets of heaven.

Moreover, he is now detached from worldly affairs, stepping outside the game of chess, and is now an observer, able to see things more clearly and accurately from a more objective and neutral perspective.

Kunpeng realized later that Yuanfeng may have already glimpsed some of the secrets of heaven when he transformed into one of the four celestial spirits and became the Southern Vermilion Bird Lingguang God, which is why he gifted him the "Flame Light Banner of the Earth".

While Fuxi and Nuwa hesitated and failed to form an alliance, they used the Azure Phoenix to convey their message, instructing their followers to pledge allegiance to them. They even sent the Peacock and the Roc to the Northern Sea, setting a good example.

Therefore, birds of prey such as the white pheasant and the sorrel flocked to join them.

(Note: "禽" is a general term for birds, and "兽" is a general term for mammals. Neither "禽" nor "兽" is a derogatory term. The idiom "衣冠禽兽" (yī guān qín shòu) only came into use in the Ming Dynasty and is a derogatory term for certain groups.)
Yuan Feng's actions were not only a warning and a reminder, but also a demonstration of her support for herself!
With the command flag in front and the edict behind, the attitude is clear and will profoundly influence the choices of the entire avian race and even the elites of the Southern Wilderness!

..............................

P.S.: I've always felt that the words 'bird' and 'beast' have derogatory connotations, so when I said many times in the previous text that I didn't want to mention 'the Winged Clan' or 'the Flying Bird Clan,' I was being superficial.

This idiom, "衣冠禽兽" (yī guān qín shòu), originated in the Ming Dynasty and stemmed from the fact that civil officials wore embroidered birds (cranes, peacocks, etc.) while military officials wore embroidered beasts (unicorns, lions, tigers, etc.).
