Soon after, a woman slowly emerged from the ranks of the Elixir Sect's group!
The woman was stunningly beautiful, breathtakingly so.
With tears streaming down her face, she looked at Sheng Yonghui in the Water Mirror Technique, too sorrowful to speak, "Yonghui!"
"Chenyu...is it really you? You're still alive? That's wonderful... you're still alive!" Sheng Yonghui, on the other side of the Water Mirror Technique, trembled all over with excitement, tears covering his face as he gazed lovingly at Lu Chenyu.
"Yonghui, my husband...I'm sorry!" Lu Chenyu said, overwhelmed by sadness.
Die walked up to her, gently took her into her arms, and comforted, "It's all in the past... When we turn back, we will find a way to heal your husband, let him rebuild his spiritual foundation, and begin cultivation anew. You two can be together forever now!"
Sheng Yonghui in the Water Mirror Technique, shuddered uncontrollably, his eyes showing disbelief.
Lu Chenyu also couldn't believe it was true; she raised her head to look at Die, "Can we... really have a future together?"
"Of course, where there is great sorrow, there is great joy. There was a time when even my physical body was completely gone, not to mention the spiritual foundation—my second primordial spirit had died too. Look, am I not still living well today?" Die said with a slight smile, revealing her own hardships.
Many great figures present knew about the incident with the Demon Lord back then. Some of them had even participated in that incident. Hearing Die's words, their faces turned unnatural.
What surprised them even more was that Lu Chenyu had appeared here. This news was utterly shocking to them!
They had all originally thought that just the Demon Lord, just Chu Mo...even with the Elixir Sect, what could they do? Could they really stand against the great trends of the Immortal Realm? That would be dreaming!
But now they suddenly realized how terrifying the couple of the Demon Lord and Die were!
Not only could they find Sheng Yonghui, who had become a beggar, but they also got the Shadow Sound Stone from the Luo family, and even managed to sneak Lu Chenyu out of the heavily-guarded Luo household unnoticed!
This series of actions was so brilliant it made their blood run cold!
Those who had initially planned to target the Demon Lord and Die, even prepared to confront the Elixir Sect, were now hesitating; the vast majority of them were starting to doubt their decision, some even thinking of backing out.
They were all wondering whether it was worth continuing to be involved.
At that moment, Die, holding Lu Chenyu's hand, slowly stepped forward and looked indifferently toward the deadly quiet Luo family side, "This is one of the atrocious deeds your Luo family has committed in the past century. Yes, there's another one, I have plenty of time, we can discuss it slowly."
"..." The people around almost stumbled and fell from the void.
This one issue alone was enough to bring the Luo family's reputation crashing down, possibly leading to their irreversible downfall.
With such a family, who would associate with them in the future?
Yet to their horror, Die was relentless, hinting at a second, and possibly a third, fourth, and fifth issue!
This was a rhythm bent on crushing the entire Luo family!
Luo Wucheng let out a chilling sneer, looking mockingly at Die, "All your painstaking effort to gather these things—do you think they are useful? To tarnish the reputation of the Luo family? You're too naive! Do you realize that this is the Cultivation Realm? The rule of the Cultivation Realm... is power! Whoever possesses greater power will have the last laugh."
As Luo Wucheng spoke, he glanced at the densely packed cultivators surrounding the area, likely numbering over a hundred thousand, and declared loudly, "The Luo family might have myriad faults, but we have not wronged any of you! Thus, there's no grievance or enmity between us. However, these two before you…" Luo Wucheng pointed at the Demon Lord and Die, saying coldly, "One, a demon head, and the other, a witch... Have committed heinous crimes, and everyone has the right to execute them! Therefore, the Luo family will lead this battle! But I hope you… will not just stand by! Otherwise, in the future… heh."
Luo Wucheng did not continue, but many in the audience shivered slightly in their hearts. They knew Luo Wucheng was not making an empty claim; if the Luo family were to win today, it would pass, but if the Demon Lord and Die were to escape, many among them would likely have sleepless nights.
At that moment, Die suddenly said, "In years past, many of you chased my husband, and there was a reason for that. After all, at that time, my husband had obtained a legacy from the ruins, and under the instigation of certain individuals, the matter escalated. In the end, many did not even understand what had happened but joined in the hunt against my husband. So…"
Die paused, glanced at the Demon Lord, who slightly nodded in agreement: "So, if among you there were those who once took part in pursuing my husband, and you apologize to my husband here today, we will consider the matter settled! After all, the real culprits from back then have nearly all been killed by us."
Die's words sounded calm, but they were actually drenched in blood!
Continuing, Die smiled faintly, "Of course, if you refuse to admit your mistakes, that's fine too. Today we will not die. And we won't in the future! After dealing with the Luo family, we will find time to visit each one of you to discuss the past events in detail. As for now, if any of you wishes to eliminate demons, feel free to step forward. It's merely a battle; I, Demon Die, am not afraid, and neither is my husband!"
From behind them, in the ranks of the Elixir Sect, a calm voice spoke up: "Elixir Sect is not afraid either, continued."
Instantly, the entire venue… fell silent.
Suddenly, from the crowd, someone stood up and flew toward the Demon Lord, quickly reaching him. It was a middle-aged man, over forty years old, who fist-bowed to the Demon Lord: "I apologize for my actions years ago; I was blindsided by greed. I solemnly apologize to you and your wife here."
The Demon Lord looked at the man, saying, "I have never seen you before, and I have no recollection of you, so this matter is considered settled!"
The middle-aged man's face immediately showed relief and gratitude as he said, "This matter has weighed on my heart for many years. Thank you, senior Demon Lord, for your magnanimity. We will meet again!" Saying so, he fist-bowed again and left on a cloud.
Once someone took the lead, others followed, and a large number of people came forward, one by one, to apologize to the Demon Lord.
Among these people were even some masters and leaders of significant forces from the Immortal Realm!
They were not so afraid of the Demon Lord to this extent; it's just that they had not gained anything from the atrocities back then, and now antagonizing such a formidable figure served no purpose!
A wise man adapts to circumstances; which of these individuals wasn't cunning?
As for losing face… Today, the Luo family lost an immensity of dignity, are they not still standing right there? What is losing a little face compared to that?
Luo Wucheng was furious to the point of smoking, finally understanding the intent behind Die's actions today. This was a bloodless way to resolve countless enmities that were not too deep!
If all these individuals united, then even if the Demon Lord was extremely powerful, even if the Elixir Sect was incredibly strong, they would still face tremendous pressure!
Now, these were lightly dismissed with Demon Die's arrangements!
Actually, it was a mutual relief; on the side of the Demon Lord and Die, they were relieved, and so were the others.
But what of that? Even if it's just my Luo family… You couple won't get away with this!
With these thoughts in his mind, Luo Wucheng waved his hand and commanded, "Kill!"
