Primordial Era: I am the chief disciple of the Three Pure Ones, the gatekeeper of the Great Dao.

Chapter 55 Kunpeng's Rebellion, Uproar in the Celestial Court!

A confluence of events brought about a dramatic change in the world.

The situation in the primordial world changes rapidly, catching people off guard.

Demon Master Kunpeng was at the heart of this vortex, and he was currently hesitant.

He looked around and saw that all he could see were the wary and greedy eyes of the powerful beings of the prehistoric world!

Former allies are now at loggerheads and have turned against each other.

Especially Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, their gazes were as cold as frost, staring intently at him as if they wanted to devour him alive.

In that instant, Demon Master Kunpeng completely abandoned any thought of turning back; his mind was made up!

He turned his head, staring intently at Dijiang, and asked in a deep voice, "If I betray the demon race and the demon court, can Fellow Daoist Dijiang guarantee my safety for ten thousand years?"

These words caused an uproar, much like a boulder thrown into water creating ripples.

Upon hearing this, Dijiang calmly replied, "Of course I don't want the Primordial Purple Qi to fall into Dijun's hands."

"If Fellow Daoist Kunpeng can repent and reform, my Wu Clan will become your strong support."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Moreover, my Wu clan has no intention of coveting the Primordial Purple Qi; you should understand that!"

The Primordial Purple Qi was of no use to the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

But Dijiang would never allow Dijun to obtain this foundation for becoming a saint.

The betrayal of the Demon Master Kunpeng means that he and the Demon Court will be irreconcilable enemies, and his only way to survive is to form an alliance with the Witch Clan.

This will also eliminate Dijiang's biggest worry.

That is why Dijiang was willing to lend a helping hand!

"Many thanks to Fellow Daoist Dijiang for your righteous assistance!"

Kunpeng said gratefully, "I know how to proceed from here."

After saying that, he absorbed the Primordial Purple Qi into his primordial spirit.

He abruptly changed the subject, raised his head to the sky, and solemnly declared: "Heaven above, today I sever all karmic ties with the demon race and the demon court. From now on, we owe each other nothing."

"The demon master Kunpeng is no more in this world, only the Kunpeng of the North Sea remains!"

With just a few words, the Kunpeng Ancestor regained his freedom.

Facing Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, he no longer felt any awe or reverence, only a burning fighting spirit.

"It's not that I'm ungrateful, but that you're pressing me relentlessly."

He declared righteously, "The Primordial Purple Qi should rightfully belong to me."

"Di Jun, Donghuang Taiyi, everyone knows your ambitions."

"On the day I attain sainthood, I will make you pay the price you deserve."

The Kunpeng Ancestor stood tall and proud, exuding an extraordinary aura.

His gloomy face exuded an air of authority, making him appear domineering.

Upon hearing this, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi's faces instantly turned ashen.

They not only lost the Primordial Purple Qi that was about to be obtained, but also lost Kunpeng, a powerful quasi-saint at the peak.

"laugh!"

Donghuang Taiyi scoffed disdainfully, "You traitor! If you ever fall into my hands, I will tear you to pieces and annihilate you!"

As he spoke, he summoned the Chaos Bell.

The deep tolling of bells echoed between heaven and earth, while the sun's true fire burned wildly, seemingly intent on destroying everything.

Seeing this, Dijiang remained quite calm. He waved his hand and said:

"We, the twelve Ancestral Witches, have come here today to celebrate Emperor Jun's heavenly marriage, not to wage war against the demon race."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "However, seeing such injustice, I have to say a few words of justice."

Having said that, he turned to the assembled ancestral witches and said, "We should go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Dijiang tore open a spatial rift, and all the Ancestral Witches jumped into it.

Kunpeng also hurriedly activated his magic power and, under the protection of Dijiang, quickly left the Lingxiao Palace.

"Fellow Daoists, wait for me!"

Seeing this, Daoist Hongyun dared not linger and immediately stepped into the spatial rift.

In the blink of an eye, the figures of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the Kunpeng Ancestor, and the Red Cloud Taoist disappeared from the main hall.

Witnessing all of this, the Ten Demon Saints and Demon Emperor Fuxi were furious. They looked at Di Jun with burning eyes, waiting for him to make a decision.

Di Jun took a deep breath, trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and said to everyone, "Today is the day of the Heavenly Wedding, which should be filled with joy."

"I already have a plan to deal with today's unexpected turn of events."

"Now, let's continue with the Heavenly Wedding Feast!"

After saying this, he deliberately pretended to take Xihe's hand casually and walked up to the throne of the Heavenly Emperor.

He gently waved his sleeve, signaling the musicians to continue playing and the dancers to continue dancing.

The atmosphere inside the main hall gradually became lively again.

The powerful beings of the primordial world kept the events of the day to themselves, raised their cups in celebration, savored the fine wine, and discussed the principles of the Great Dao.

Beside the jade table, Guang Chengzi and Zhao Gongming stared in astonishment.

Guang Chengzi slammed his hand on the table, exclaiming excitedly, "Senior brother, that was absolutely fantastic!"

"We were absolutely right to come to the Demon Court this time; it's truly been an eye-opening experience!"

"That's right, when we get back to Kunlun Mountain, we'll have plenty to brag about!"

Zhao Gongming excitedly echoed, looking as if he had never seen the world before.

Their actions caused a minor disturbance inside the Lingxiao Palace.

However, everyone chose to ignore them. After all, these two were disciples of the Three Pure Ones, and who would dare to provoke them easily?

···········

Meanwhile, in front of the Kunlun Mountain gate.

Cang Xuan lay leisurely on the chair, gazing up at the starry sky.

After a long while, he muttered to himself, "Although the actions of Daoist Hongyun were expected, the intervention of the Twelve Ancestral Witches forced Ancestor Kunpeng to betray the Demon Court, which was a truly unexpected surprise."

He gently stroked the Chaos Black Qilin in his arms and then said, "The Primordial Purple Qi is now in the hands of Ancestor Kunpeng, but whether he can successfully refine it depends on his fate."

Cang Xuan wasn't particularly concerned about the Primordial Purple Qi.

As long as he controls the Earthly Way and the Human Way, he can use the power of origin to cultivate Earthly Way Saints and Human Way Saints.

A wisp of primordial purple energy was of no importance to him.

Just then, Jade Cauldron Immortal descended from the sky and landed in front of Cang Xuan.

Cang Xuan looked at him, a slight smile playing on his lips, and teased, "Are you planning to go down the mountain?"

Master Yu Ding scratched his forehead, somewhat amused and exasperated, and said, "Senior Brother Cang Xuan, to tell you the truth, my mischievous disciple, the Six-Eared Macaque, has found the whereabouts of the Long-Armed Ape and the Red-Bottomed Macaque."

"The three of them are now together, and it won't be long before they cause a great disturbance in the Celestial Court."

"I have to stop them quickly, I'm so unlucky!"

"It's all my fault for telling him how to improve his cultivation and combat power. Now I've brought this trouble upon myself!"

It was originally thought that it would take the Six-Eared Macaque a long time to find like-minded partners.

Unexpectedly, just a thousand years later, he formed a deep brotherhood with the gibbon and the red-bottomed macaque.

A major upheaval in the Celestial Court seems to be brewing in the shadows, the consequences of which are difficult to predict.

However, Cang Xuan remained remarkably calm in the face of Yu Ding Zhenren's worries.

He patted Yu Ding on the shoulder and said calmly, "Don't worry, the Six-Eared Macaque doesn't know your true identity."

"Besides, he is destined not to die at the hands of the Celestial Court."

"Let's regard this disturbance in the Celestial Court as an inevitable part of his growth, a test of his entry into the realm of cultivation."

Cangxuan's Eye of Time can see through all things in the world, and the fate of the Six-Eared Macaque is naturally under his control.

Hearing Cang Xuan's words, Master Yu Ding finally breathed a sigh of relief. "With your words, Senior Brother, I feel much more at ease."

"Come, have a cup of tea with your senior brother, and wait quietly for things to develop."

Cang Xuan pressed Yu Ding Zhenren into a chair, and the two leisurely enjoyed tea and discussed the Dao.

Meanwhile, in the East China Sea, not far from the Penglai Immortal Island.

The three divine monkeys stood on auspicious clouds, exuding a heroic and majestic aura.

"My two younger brothers."

The six-eared macaque excitedly grabbed its ears, its eyes burning with the flames of revenge.

"I was once fortunate enough to escape the pursuit of the Celestial Court thanks to the help of a wise man."

"Now that the three of us have sworn brotherhood, you must help me avenge myself against the Celestial Court!"
