Chapter 783: Six one seven, if a pot is broken, break it even more_2

With that thought in mind, the Fire Raven Demon God attacked Little Golden Crow. Yet, as the sole remaining son of Emperor Lord Di Jun, how could Little Golden Crow lack any means of protecting his life?

The Fire Raven Demon God believed that with his own Dao Monarch’s strength and a surprise attack, he could definitely kill Little Golden Crow instantly. However, he miscalculated. When he attacked Little Golden Crow, the Immortal-slaying Gourd suddenly erupted, blocking his deadly strike and entangling with him for a while.

Then, there was no more ’then.’ The remaining Demon Gods arrived, brimming with anger, and tore the Fire Raven Demon God to shreds. With his father committing such a grave mistake, had the Fire Raven Demon Sovereign continued to stay in the Demon Clan, he would have been better off dead.

So, he rebelled against the Demon Clan and began his life on the run. Later, when the Heavenly Emperor rose to power, the Fire Raven Demon Sovereign allied himself with the Human Race.

Little Golden Crow’s discord with the Demon Gods, and even his later allegiance with the Western Teaching, was related to this incident. With a Demon God attacking him, how could Little Golden Crow dare to continue staying in the Demon Clan? He relocated immediately.

...

"Is it the Fire Raven Demon Sovereign? I remember him. His insolent grandson spread a bad reputation for the monarch in the lower worlds and was killed by me. I was waiting for him to come for revenge, but he was nowhere to be seen for a long time. It puzzled me. Today, I finally understood why – he was under house arrest."

Jiang Chen shook his head and spoke. This man had indeed delivered to him the Dao Monarch Feather, so naturally, he made a deep impression.

"It was Brother Long Ma who took action, sealing him up and thus calming him down, preventing him from seeking revenge on Brother Jiang," the Sky Demon supplemented at the side.

"It was the Venerable Long Ma? So, it was his elder who helped me. If I had known about this earlier, I would have visited him when I was at Fire Cloud Cave to express my gratitude for his assistance."

Long Ma was the steed of the Heavenly Emperor, a deity borne of Heaven and Earth, carrying Hetu, and possessing great merit. As early as ancient times, he had reached the Quasi-Saint realm, eliminating his good corpse. His real body resided with the Heavenly Emperor in the Fire Cloud Cave, while his good corpse was stationed on Gouchen Star.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen turned towards the three demons to ask, "Where is Elder Long Ma? Why is he not here?"

The Sky Demon answered, "Brother Long Ma left Gouchen Star countless years ago to travel throughout All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds. Even the act of sealing away the Fire Raven was only carried out by an impression of his divine consciousness."

He left?

Jiang Chen came to realization. No wonder the three demons were so arrogant, acting as though Gouchen Star was completely their own. It turned out that Elder Long Ma had left. With no one to keep them in check, the three demons naturally had no reservations, becoming increasingly reckless.

"Elder Long Ma is certainly carefree. All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, a place where miracles are born. If it weren’t for my entanglements with worldly matters, I too would want to travel there."

After expressing his longing for All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, Jiang Chen suddenly turned towards the three demons and said, "Fellow friends, are all the people from Gouchen Star gathered here?"

Upon hearing this, the hearts of the three demons jolted. They thought that Jiang Chen had discovered something, but also suspected Jiang Chen was playing them.

After some consideration, the three demons gritted their teeth and said, "Brother Jiang, other than the Fire Raven, all the experts from Gouchen Star are here."

Jiang Chen looked up and glanced behind the three demons. Indeed, there were many people present, hundreds of Great Luo Golden Immortals – an impressive force.

However, as powerful as this force was, it seemed to lack a lot compared to the number of experts he had discovered on Gouchen Star. For instance, he noticed that the dozen or so Innate Dao Monarchs whom he had identified were not present. Not to mention, nearly a thousand Great Luo Golden Immortals were still not accounted for.

With an inscrutable smile towards the three demons, Jiang Chen’s tone was enigmatic, "Are the three of you certain that everyone is here?"

The three demons felt shivers down their spine under Jiang Chen’s gaze, but they still gritted their teeth and reaffirmed, "We are certain everyone is here!"

At this stage, even if Jiang Chen had truly noticed something, they had no choice but to stick to their story, after all, Jiang Chen had no proof.

"Haha!"

"Everyone is here!"

Jiang Chen laughed loudly, and in the shocked gaze of everyone present in the hall, he suddenly stepped forward and sat down on the royal seat representing the supreme authority of Gouchen Star.

"Jiang Chen, how dare you, this is audacious!"

"The seat of Emperor Gouchen, is it something you can sit on? Get off at once!"

"Even if you are a descendant of His Majesty, such disrespect is unwarranted. Descend immediately!"

The people in the hall, having seen this, all began to berate Jiang Chen. In particular, the three great Demon Lords were extraordinarily energetic, as if they’d been invigorated by chicken blood, and they were not only loudly scolding Jiang Chen, but were also preparing to step forward, to seize this rebel, Jiang Chen.

At this point, Jiang Chen took out the Imperial Edict of Heaven and shouted at the crowd: "Silence! His Majesty’s edict is here, and you should all haste to accept it."

Upon seeing this, the crowd shut their mouths and bowed to the Imperial Edict of Heaven in Jiang Chen’s hand: "We, your servants, accept the decree."

Jiang Chen did not announce the decree. Instead, he said to the demons below: "Read His Majesty’s intention yourselves!"

As his voice fell, a dazzling golden light burst forth from his hand, and the Imperial Edict of Heaven rose high into the air, transforming into a scroll several feet wide, floating in mid-air, slowly unfolding.

"What?"

"How is this possible?"

The moment they saw the content of the Imperial Edict of Heaven, the three Demon Lords completely lost control and couldn’t help but exclaim. On that gigantic Imperial Edict of Heaven, there were only six large characters: "Seeing Jiang Chen is seeing Me!"

The meaning was simple and clear: seeing Jiang Chen was equivalent to seeing the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi, the Emperor had transferred all his powers and rights to Jiang Chen.

"Gentlemen, how do you feel now about me sitting on the throne of heaven?" Looking at everyone, Jiang Chen asked in a stern voice.

"Since His Majesty has already issued a decree, naturally you can sit on the throne, we have no objection!" The three Demon Lords immediately replied. Even though they were reluctant, they dared not defy the Imperial Edict of Heaven, as that is not something they could resist.

Without further say, the power contained in the Imperial Edict of Heaven was not something the three of them could resist. If they dared to dissent, Jiang Chen only needed to invoke the Imperial Edict of Heaven to annihilate them.

"Objections, do you dare have any objections?" Sneering, Jiang Chen stimulated part of the authority of the Imperial Edict of Heaven. Instantly, a transcendent and immense aura of divinity spread out, making the demons kneel on the ground, unable to rise.

However, the three Demon Lords due to their formidable cultivation, didn’t fall, and were still barely holding on.

"What is Emperor Lord trying to imply? Is there any dissatisfaction with us?"

Under the heavy weight of the heavenly authority, the three Demon Lords managed to raise their heads and ask Jiang Chen.`

"Hmph!" Jiang Chen snorted coldly, not answering their question, but asked in return, "Is it time to tell me whether all the experts from the Gouchen Star have arrived?"

"All the experts from the Gouchen Star are here, no one is missing." The harder Jiang Chen pressures, the less the three Demon Lords could afford to admit the truth. Otherwise, they couldn’t bear the crime of deceiving the Emperor.

"Still not admitting!" Jiang Chen didn’t expect that at this point, the three Demon Lords were still being stubborn and retorted coldly, "It seems you won’t shed a tear until you see the coffin."

As he spoke, he saw Jiang Chen grab the Imperial Edict of Heaven and swipe it fiercely in front of him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A dazzling divine light burst out, like a rushing and surging river in the void, sweeping in all directions.

Just in an instant, the fog on the Gouchen Star was swept away, all the measures left by the three Demon Lords were destroyed, and their formations failed. Countless demon figures appeared out of the fog, dazed by the changes around them.

The Dao Monarch-level experts sensed that something was wrong and wanted to escape, but they were suppressed by the Emperor’s aura and couldn’t move.

"Three friends, tell me, who are these people?" Pointing to the suddenly appearing demons outside, Jiang Chen asked the three Demon Lords.

Seeing that their plan was exposed, the three Demon Lords readily admitted, "We are guilty, please punish us, Emperor Lord."

The three Demon Lords were now admitting their mistakes openly, they were more nervous before their plan was exposed. But once it was exposed, they let go.

Because they were certain that Jiang Chen could do nothing against them, even if they did make a mistake, what could Jiang Chen do, kill them?
