Chapter 786: Chapter 268: The Battle of the Demon Emperor【Two-in-One】_4 Chapter 786: Chapter 268: The Battle of the Demon Emperor【Two-in-One】_4 “Having refrained from setting foot in the mortal world for long, haven’t you?”

Peng Wanli frowned, saying: “You mean to suggest that even if I kill you now, your master may not necessarily know about it, and thus I don’t need to worry about him, is that it?”

The Purple Emperor took a deep breath and said, “Great senior, your might shakes the heaven and earth, your fame spread across the universe, naturally achieving the essence of creation, standing at the peak of this epoch. However, if you intend to kill me, it might not be as easy as you think!”

After all, he was a peak master, the pinnacle of humanity, possessing a certain degree of pride, how could he be disrespected in such manner.

Even knowing that Peng Wanli was an elder of the demon race, with peerless cultivation, despite being fearful, he was still willing to put up a fight!

Peng Wanli furrowed his brows, glancing at him with twinkling starlight in his eyes: “Oh? Do you feel insulted?”

The Purple Emperor took a deep breath: “A warrior can be killed but not insulted!”

With interest, Peng Wanli said: “So, when you insult others, do you also do it so righteously?”

The Purple Emperor snorted and said, “What’s wrong with insulting an insignificant being like an ant?”

Peng Wanli chuckled and said, “In my eyes, you’re nothing but an insignificant ant as well. So what if I insult you?”

The Purple Emperor, enraged, retorted, “Considering me an ant is too much, elder. It is ants who have not reached Cloud Peak. The term ‘ant’ should not be applied to anyone among us Nine Colors!”

Peng Wanli said flatly, “What does it matter if you’re among the Nine Colors? If you’re weaker, you’re an ant. Just a slightly stronger ant!”

He said coldly, “Others may not know the intricacies of your Nine Colors, but do you really think you can fool me? This so-called Nine Colors, is nothing more than a lineage, deceiving yourselves and others, stealing prestige with these deceitful tricks. It simply evolved from self-proclamation to universal recognition.”

“People always say that the Nine Colors reign supreme…”

Peng Wanli, with hands behind his back, looking at the battle in the snow, said mildly, “But the universe is vast, under the broad sky, numerous geniuses exist, how could your mere Nine Colors cover them all?”

The Purple Emperor said arrogantly, “But we indeed support the destiny of a nation with our own strength, working for the human race! This is an undeniable fact.”

“So, you’re reminding me not to kill you, otherwise I will face retribution from the nation’s destiny?”

Peng Wanli slowly paced, saying: “You can deceive others with your rhetoric, but can I be deceived? Have you forgotten that Venerable Qingxiao was killed by me, yet I didn’t see the fall of Qin Country?”

The Purple Emperor’s eyes suddenly contracted, his cultivation elevated to the maximum, even being ready to burn his soul.

Confronted by Peng Wanli, a peak demon figure, let alone being critically wounded, even when in excellent health, he would hardly have a chance of surviving without paying a heavy price, let alone right now.

“If the elder wants to bully the weak, then I would just have to keep you company.”

The Purple Emperor said with a mix of softness and firmness.

“Bullying the weak? Do you think you’re worth it?” Peng Wanli snorted.

Yet, the Purple Emperor felt overjoyed.

Even though he was being belittled, since his opponent had made such a remark, clearly, he had an opportunity.

“Of course, I am no match for senior. If senior really wants to punish me, I can only bow my head in submission and let senior deal with me as he sees fit.”

The Purple Emperor tentatively said.

The words, though meant to humble himself in terms of seniority, was clearly an admission of defeat.

“Hehe… You’re quite smart.”

Peng Wanli snorted, “You actually forced me into it with this reason.”

“I dare not.”

“Speaking of which, Venerable Ziwen and I had a somewhat cordial relationship back in the day, once traveled together among famous mountains…”

Memories flickered in Peng Wanli’s eyes: “Your teacher was certainly one of the rare outstanding men in this world. Despite his gentle temperament with a bit of fierceness, he can still be considered an upright and bright great man!”

Peng Wanli had no choice but to change his tone of conversation. Objectively, he now certainly wanted to kill this so-called Purple Emperor right here.

But the problem was that his current cultivation was not at its full strength, and his capacity wasn’t demonstrated.

Especially as his core was in the process of repair. If he could avoid a fight, he would, because once engaged, his source could rupture.

This was particularly true when facing the likes of the Nine Colors Supreme, and not only was Purple Emperor here, but White Rainbow was as well.

There was also one more person lurking in the dark.

Even for Peng Wanli, the situation was far from optimistic.
