Honghuang: Oh no, the Witch Clan Chief has lost his mind!

Di Jun cursed in his heart,

But upon closer reflection, I realized that what Tianqi said seemed to make some sense.

The demon race is newly established and lacks sufficient foundation.

It definitely needs time to develop.

Three thousand years is not a long time, but if the Wu tribe can remain peaceful for three thousand years and not cause trouble for their own demon tribe,

This is a rare and good thing.

Although this promise was made in Apocalypse's personal name.

The risk is a bit too high.

But considering that Tianqi was able to make the announcement to heaven and earth regarding the important matter of establishing the clan, he must have a lot of influence in the Wu clan!

"A single tree branch can buy thousands of years of peaceful development"

It seems like a huge profit?

A thought suddenly popped into Di Jun's mind.

After a fierce internal struggle, a hint of emotion flickered in his eyes!

Taiyi was also visibly taken aback, clearly not expecting Tianqi to make such a condition.

They were definitely being considerate by not directly asking for it.

But this is not much different from simply asking for something!

Tianqi saw that Dijun and the other man were starting to be persuaded by his words.

Then he quickly continued his deception, putting on an expression that said, "You've hit the jackpot!"

"Fellow Daoists, think about it."

Peaceful development is an essential and indispensable path for the growth and expansion of ancient races!

If the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin clans had developed peacefully back then and hadn't fought each other,

Then it's unlikely that our Ancestral Witches and the Demon Race will have anything to do with it now!

You agree, right?

"This shows how precious it is for a race to develop peacefully!"

With these three thousand years, the demon race will surely flourish and grow stronger!

Whether the primordial world will be in chaos or not then will be up to you demons to decide.

"A single tree branch can buy thousands of years of peace."

Where else in the entire universe could you find such a deal?

"Right?"

Under Apocalypse's energetic performance

Di Jun was finally tempted!

Taiyi felt somewhat aggrieved, but couldn't seem to think of a reason to refute it.

After all, the situation was pressing, and the three of them, Dijiang and Zuwu, were still glaring at him!

"That's enough, that's enough!"

Di Jun finally made up his mind, put on a reluctant expression, sighed, and said:

"Since it's to help the Ancestral Witch Jumang comprehend the Great Dao..."

"For the sake of our two races' millennium of peace, I, the Emperor, will grant your wish!"

Then, Di Jun raised his hand and waved it.

A golden light swept across the top of the huge hibiscus tree, a section about three feet long (approximately one meter).

The shimmering, iridescent branches, radiating the surging essence of solar fire and the fundamental nature of wood, slowly fell from the tree.

It hovered silently in front of Di Jun.

Before Tianqi could retrieve it, a glint flashed in Dijun's eyes, and he spoke:

"Fellow Daoist Tianqi, do not be anxious."

The length you just gestured was about one foot.

However, I imagine your elder brother wouldn't be able to glean anything from this either.

"Alright then, I'll give you a three-foot branch of the Fusang tree; your brother should be able to achieve something after nine thousand years of enlightenment!"

"What do you think, Fellow Daoist Tianqi?"

When Tianqi heard Dijun's words, he was slightly taken aback.

He then thought to himself jokingly:

"Good heavens! It's actually three times three equals nine!"

Such advanced multiplication tables,

Di Jun is actually using it so skillfully!

Could he be a math prodigy too?!

Playing around is one thing, but when it comes to business, bargaining is common, and Di Jun's demand for terms was within Tianqi's expectations.

After all, people who have cultivated to this level aren't all fools!

Apocalypse thought for a moment.

Nine thousand years,

Around the time Hongjun finished his third sermon, the sages probably still hadn't achieved enlightenment.

The demon race poses no threat to the witch race!

Moreover, the branches of the hibiscus tree are not like ordinary trees on Earth; they don't grow quickly just because you successfully propagate a small cutting.

It's uncertain whether an extra six thousand years will be enough to make a tree branch grow from one foot to three feet!

From this perspective, spending six thousand years to exchange for an extra six feet of tree branch is definitely not a loss!

"You might make a small profit, but I'll never lose money!"

After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Tianqi nodded in agreement and said with a smile:

"Then thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Dijun!"

Fellow Daoist, you are wise and considerate of the greater good.

They have made tremendous contributions to the cause of peaceful development in the prehistoric world!

On behalf of my elder brother Jumang, I thank you!

After Tianqi finished speaking, he reached out and grabbed the branch.

Then, with another flicker, the branch disappeared, and the next second it reappeared within the Witch Realm.

The powerful figures present were not surprised by Tianqi's methods; they simply assumed he had brought some kind of storage magic treasure.

Even so, they were still amazed by the extraordinary nature of the Apocalypse Space Treasure.

It can so easily contain the hibiscus tree branch filled with the essence of the sun!

Di Jun felt quite comfortable listening to Tianqi's words.

He felt that his decision was incredibly wise.

It not only demonstrated the demeanor of a demon emperor,

This also bought the demon race a precious nine thousand years to develop, truly killing two birds with one stone!

Taiyi, meanwhile, watched Tianqi's beaming face.

I feel like something's not right, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

The other powerful individuals watched the group's actions with great interest.

It's even better than a traditional opera performance!

Although some people had the same idea as Tianqi, they saw that they didn't have a powerful older brother to back them up.

After realizing my own limitations, I decided to give up.

……

The Apocalypse's operation can be considered a perfect conclusion.

He was a little worried that Dijun might change his mind.

It's too late to back out now!

Anything that enters the Apocalypse Witch Realm becomes the property of the Witch Clan.

If I want to take it back now,

Hehe, just wait and see if the true form of Pangu of the Wu Clan agrees!

Then Tianqi cupped his hands towards the crowd and said:

"Gentlemen, we have matters to attend to in our clan, so we will take our leave now!"

Fellow Daoist Di Jun and Fellow Daoist Tai Yi, there's no need for farewells.

We'll meet again in nine thousand years.

After Tianqi finished speaking,

Before Di Jun and Tai Yi could respond,

Dijiang Zuwu had already used his spatial power to envelop everyone.

It vanished from the Sun in a flash.

The speed was so fast that it amazed all the powerful figures!

Di Jun looked in the direction where Tianqi had disappeared with a smile, nodded in satisfaction, and said:

"Although Tianqi is a member of the Wu tribe, he is quite respectful and knows his place."

If our two races ever clash in the future,

"Let him have a proper burial!"

Taiyi frowned, feeling that the words "reunion after a thousand years" sounded a bit creepy!

But hearing his older brother's confidence...

Taiyi immediately became confident, dispelling the strange feeling in his heart.

Meanwhile, Tianqi, who had wandered far away, felt the warmth emanating from the hibiscus branches within the witch realm.

Feeling the second spring-like fluctuations emanating from the small axe within the altar, a feeling of "it works again"...

Apocalypse laughed so hard his eyes disappeared from his grin.

His appearance brought smiles to the faces of Houtu and Xuanming, the Ancestral Witches beside him.

"You can find a little black cat just by taking a simple tour and strolling around."

Another empty promise can buy you a hibiscus branch.

Di Jun is really a good person!

Hopefully, he won't cry too much in the future.

Hahaha!"
