Shangguan Qingyun's eyes were filled with tears and blood without him noticing.
It is regret, anger, and unwillingness.
"Ji Chengfeng, even if you don't become a demon, you can still become the Divine Emperor and get the Saint. Why? Why do you have to destroy the Divine Realm? Why did you lie to me and make me a sinner of the Divine Realm and the human race?"
Ji Chengfeng looked down at him, admiring his painful wails with a delighted expression.
After a long while, he said slowly: "Shangguan Qingyun, do you know that among all the dirty garbage left in the Divine Realm, I hate you the most."
The elder was stunned and couldn't believe it: "Why? You obviously promoted me, and I have always obeyed you..."
Ji Chengfeng sneered, with intense hatred bursting from his eyes.
"Do you still remember more than 10,000 years ago? You were just an elder from the outer court who had just joined the elders' council, but you spoke eloquently at the sacrificial ceremony, saying that a disaster was coming to the divine realm, and as the saint, Xue Xi had to purify the filthy air, even if it meant sacrificing herself, to restore peace to the divine realm and the three thousand planes."
"Haha, Shangguan Qingyun, you are as selfless as ever, and you care about the world! It was because of you that the people from the Council of Elders and the Priests' Hall gathered and knelt in front of the Saint's Hall, asking Xue Xi to pray for the spirit to save the Divine Realm. I didn't get the news until Xue Xi agreed to you. I wanted to make Xue Xi change her mind, but it was too late."
"You think you are righteous, so you forced Xue Xi to sacrifice herself, just like you are forcing Xi Yue now. Have you forgotten all this?"
Hearing Ji Chengfeng's words, the Great Elder felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his whole body freezing cold.
It turned out that Ji Chengfeng had hated him long ago, before he even had the chance to pay homage to the Divine Emperor.
"So, you later signed a master-servant contract with me and let me take the position of the chief elder, all for the sake of..."
Ji Chengfeng sneered, "That's right. After Xue Xi died, I didn't let go of any of those rubbish that forced her to death. I made them all die on the eternal battlefield. Only you stayed, and I helped you rise to the top, making you the chief of the Council of Elders. Do you know why?"
The Great Elder's body began to tremble like a sieve.
"I want you to witness with your own eyes the end that the Divine Realm is about to face. Don't you claim to be the most just and righteous, and to care about the people? Aren't you most afraid of seeing the disaster that is coming to the Divine Realm?"
"I want you to watch with your own eyes the collapse of the divine realm, the extinction of mankind, the saint becoming my woman, and the evil demons ruling the three realms and six paths. Even if some humans survive by chance, they will know that the one who harmed them to this point was a man named Shangguan Qingyun."
"Not only will I make you die with your eyes wide open, I will also make you the eternal sinner of the human race!"
As soon as he finished speaking, black spiritual power flashed in Ji Chengfeng's hand, drawing out the great elder's cultivation bit by bit.
This process is extremely painful as the soul is torn apart and spiritual power is exhausted.
But Ji Chengfeng just wanted to see him in pain, so he moved very slowly.
Until the last trace of his cultivation and soul were devoured by Ji Chengfeng.
The Great Elder's consciousness did not disappear.
He opened his blood-red eyes, unable to control himself, in agony, but he just couldn't die. Ji Chengfeng deliberately kept his body and didn't merge with the Blood Hell Demon.
Instead, he was transformed into a puppet. (To be continued)
