Donghua quietly watched the Demon Lotus Emperor, the wooden sword in his hand resonating with the sound of dragon roars that echoed through the skies.
He slightly raised his hand, pointing the sword tip directly at the Demon Lotus Emperor, and coldly asked, "The owner of this body is my disciple Wei Chen. If you dare to seize him, I will not spare you! To kill you, all it takes is a Mind Sword, and your last trace of Spirit will completely dissipate!"
Upon hearing this, the Demon Lotus Emperor let out a slight sigh of relief.
Wei Chen's face also showed a hint of relief.
He nodded slightly at Donghua and said, "Donghua Sword Immortal, do you think I still have the strength to lead the demon race against the human race in Hua Xia World? Even if I were to return to Hua Xia World, what would it change?"
Donghua looked coldly at the Demon Lotus Emperor and remained silent.
The Demon Lotus Emperor continued, "In fact, after experiencing the power of the human race's formations, I have already given up on any plans for a comeback. As long as those Formation Masters are still around, I cannot lead the demon race to ultimate victory. My failure back then was not due to my combat strength but because those formations were too powerful for me to withstand. You should know how I failed, and the human race in Hua Xia World has suffered greatly; they can no longer endure such a catastrophe."
The expression of the Demon Lotus Emperor was extremely sincere, almost as if he truly meant it.
However, the astute Donghua did not believe him at all!
Donghua sneered and scolded, "Demon Lotus Emperor, stop talking nonsense in front of me! What are you plotting that I don't know about? If you had truly become one of those compassionate beings, what could possibly stop you?"
"Whether you believe it or not, that is the truth. Right now, I am merely a remnant soul and pose no threat to this body. Once he inherits the Demon Lotus Robe, I will disappear. What remains will be up to him when he reaches Hua Xia World—whether to continue fighting against the human race or to coexist peacefully is entirely his choice."
"How convenient for you! His Three Souls and Seven Spirits are filled with your violent shadow; how could he possibly not be influenced by you? In my eyes, your choice of Wei Chen was likely because of his Formation Assignment. In my countless travels through various worlds, I have never encountered a formation genius like Wei Chen. He is the first and probably the only one. Your plan is simply for him to return to Hua Xia World under your influence as a remnant soul so that you can control him and become the new Demon Lotus Emperor, reigniting chaos in Hua Xia World."
Donghua coldly regarded Wei Chen as memories slowly resurfaced. He gained much useful information about everything from his past life to why he inexplicably ended up in this lowly place called Soul World.
He deeply understood that his purpose for coming to Soul World was precisely for this person before him—the Demon Lotus Emperor!
At all costs, stop him from returning to Hua Xia World!
This was Donghua's purpose for coming to Soul World!
The Demon Lotus Emperor shrugged helplessly and said, "This matter is absolutely true. I cannot make you believe it, so you might as well complete the shameless tasks set by those fellows in the Nine Immortal Realm and eliminate me as soon as possible."
A look of despair returned to the Demon Lotus Emperor's face, and Wei Chen reluctantly closed his eyes.
But would Donghua really take action?
The tip of the wooden sword pointed directly at Wei Chen, and a Mind Sword emerged, radiating an ethereal aura, ready to pierce into Wei Chen's body and slay the remnants of the Demon Lotus Emperor's soul.
Neither Wei Chen's body nor the remnants of the Demon Lotus Emperor's soul could withstand Donghua's sword.
Even in the High-Level Plane of Hua Xia World, in the Nine Immortal Realm, Donghua's sword instilled fear in countless immortals. The fully powered Demon Lotus Emperor could once fight Donghua to a standstill, but now, he had no strength left to resist.
Donghua Sword Immortal was a truly ruthless existence in the Nine Immortal Realm. Aside from a few Immortal Emperors and Buddhas, no one else could match him.
Such a fierce and formidable figure had arrived in Soul World, and there was no one who could stop him from doing anything. Even if Gu Yuehong were present, she would not be able to withstand Donghua's sword.
Both swords were aimed at Wei Chen, who remained completely unaware of it all. He felt drowsy, as if he had fallen asleep, oblivious to everything about life and the true emergence of the Demon Lotus Emperor.
"Demon Lotus Emperor, I actually respect you. You are a true man. Even though what you did in Hua Xia World caused suffering for many, ultimately, your actions were aimed at securing survival rights for your kind. From this perspective, your methods are justifiable." After hesitating for a moment, Donghua sheathed both swords, his gaze becoming calm and serene.
"You’re not going to kill me?" The Demon Lotus Emperor showed a glimmer of joy. When Donghua first appeared, he had been extremely panicked. Now that Donghua had awakened his memories, he realized that if he didn't say something soon, he might lose his life.
However, the development of events was surprisingly smooth; perhaps everything was not as simple as it seemed.
"Not that I don't want to kill you, but I don't want to harm my disciple. Wei Chen is my disciple, and I will protect him. No matter where we go, it will be the same. Once you complete the enhancement of Three Souls and Seven Spirits and allow Wei Chen to inherit the true legacy of the Demon Lotus Emperor, you will stay put and not cause trouble. Do not attempt to seize control over Wei Chen's body. With me by his side, you won't be able to play any tricks," Donghua warned the Demon Lotus Emperor.
"Donghua Sword Immortal, rest assured, my only goal is to complete the Demon Lotus inheritance. I have no interest in dominating Wei Chen's body. His Formation Assignment can only be executed by him alone. Even if I were to seize control of his body, without the Formation Assignment, the endowment would not transfer to me. Therefore, when I return to Hua Xia World, the outcome will remain the same; I still cannot contend with humanity. If that's the case, why should I make things difficult for myself?" the Demon Lotus Emperor replied calmly.
Donghua nodded and said, "That's right, the endowment will not be inherited, but your Demon Lotus Inheritance can indeed be genuinely passed on to Wei Chen in this low-level realm. Once we return to Hua Xia World, what Wei Chen chooses to do will be his own affair; you cannot interfere."
"Donghua Sword Immortal, may I ask what if Wei Chen wishes to wage war against humanity? After all, once he inherits the Demon Lotus Inheritance, he will inevitably be influenced and become a part of the demon race, right? You have seen it; many around him are from the demon race. When he sees their struggles for survival in Hua Xia World under the massive oppression and persecution from humanity, he cannot possibly remain idle," the Demon Lotus Emperor looked at Donghua and said lightly.
Donghua sneered coldly and replied, "That is no longer your concern. Regardless of how Wei Chen chooses, I will unconditionally support him."
"With your assurance, I feel at ease. Perhaps we might even fight side by side in the future," the Demon Lotus Emperor smiled.
"Fight side by side?" Donghua scoffed again and said, "I can fight alongside Wei Chen, but not with you. You are merely a remnant soul; what qualifications do you have to fight beside me? Any skilled human could easily eliminate your soul."
"The mountain man has his own clever plans. Once we return to Hua Xia World, I have confidence that I can reconstitute my body there without any relation to Wei Chen and without harming him," the Demon Lotus Emperor explained.
Donghua frowned and asked, "So you still intend to battle against humanity?"
"Let's see when we get to Hua Xia World; who knows what it looks like now? Perhaps Hua Xia World is stable now, with humanity and demons united in creating a prosperous situation. In such a scenario, I would never seek to disrupt it. But do you think that probability is high?" The Demon Lotus Emperor paused before coldly laughing again. "I believe that probability is almost zero. The survival of demons in Hua Xia World must be extremely difficult. Without me and those ancient races and dragon clans around, what demons could possibly contend with humanity?"
"It can be foreseen that demons are suffering greatly under massive oppression and hunting by humanity, becoming mere resources for their cultivation. Who would enjoy such a life? When Wei Chen arrives in Hua Xia World and sees these things, he probably won't be able to sit still either. Having inherited my legacy means he is now part of the demon race."
With that, the Demon Lotus Emperor coldly looked at Donghua again and said, "Donghua Sword Immortal, your only option now is to eliminate me quickly. Without completing the inheritance of the Demon Lotus Robe, Wei Chen will not count as part of the demon race. You can take him back to Nine Immortal Realm; perhaps that would be the best choice for him."
The expression of the Demon Lotus Emperor was cold; he dared to say this because he deeply understood Donghua's emphasis on the inheritance of the Demon Lotus Robe. With the Demon Lotus Inheritance or without it, Wei Chen's future would be entirely different.
Having witnessed the power of the Demon Lotus himself, Donghua naturally wanted Wei Chen to obtain such an inheritance. However, the Demon Lotus Emperor was not wrong either; if Wei Chen returned to Hua Xia World, he might indeed feel compelled to act against those who oppress his fellow demons.
At that time, the flames of war would rise again in Hua Xia World, with battles raging everywhere, leading to yet another prolonged conflict.
Moreover, Donghua deeply understood that Wei Chen's Formation Assignment was unmatched.
"If this kid inherits the Demon Lotus Robe, combined with my Sword Saint Inheritance and his Formation Assignment, then who in Hua Xia World could stand against him? Even those big shots from the Nine Immortal Realm would probably not be his match."
Thinking of this, Donghua's face lit up with excitement as he said, "I really want to see what kind of waves Wei Chen will stir up in Hua Xia World after inheriting the Demon Lotus Inheritance, my Sword Technique, and a powerful Formation Assignment."
"Very well, let's do it this way. I can't come out often, but if any trouble arises, I will still intervene. With me inside Wei Chen, it's like having a safeguard. If you don't want anything to happen to Wei Chen, I certainly don't either. You are Wei Chen's master, and I have given him my Demon Lotus body; doesn't that make him my disciple? In this regard, our interests align. Wei Chen has connected us together, so there shouldn't be any more issues."
After the Demon Lotus Emperor finished speaking, he nodded slightly at Donghua, and Wei Chen returned to being himself.
Wei Chen shook his head vigorously and woke up.
He looked at Donghua and frowned. "Boss, what happened? Did your sword have some enchanting effect that made me fall asleep?"
Wei Chen found it strange; it seemed that after that strike from Donghua's sword, there was a drastic change in Donghua's aura, and then he fell into a deep slumber.
However, upon waking up and looking at Donghua again, he saw the same unremarkable Donghua as before.
Yet now, there was a faint righteousness emanating from Donghua that felt even weaker than before, replaced by a chilling aura of slaughter.
