Arc 3: Part 11
"Tong, are you willing to return with me to the Demon Realm?" Tian Xuanzi asked, "I could acquire a spiritual vein for your cultivation. Although it's forced, it could serve as your spiritual root, allowing you to cultivate."
Before Tong Su could respond, a loud "squawk" echoed. The little firebird, indignant as a miser who sees his treasure being taken away by a dragon, sprang out like a cannonball. Its tiny wings flapped as it charged towards Tian Xuanzi, preparing to attack fiercely!
Puff——
A cluster of golden-red flames headed towards him. The flames, which usually caught disciples off guard, fell on Tian Xuanzi and ebbed away as quickly as a mud ox entering the sea. As a result, it did not leave any burn marks on his clothes.
Tian Xuanzi nonchalantly flicked his finger, causing the little firebird to stumble and somersault away.
"Golden Crow Fire?" Tian Xuanzi mulling over, turned to Tong Su, "Is this an innate spiritual fire you've awoken to? Wood aids fire. If your body has always housed the Golden Crow Fire, was your spiritual root so strong that it suppressed the spiritual fire, causing even your soul to be sealed and resulting in previous symptoms of soul deficiency? Thankfully, it seems your spiritual root was stripped, revealing the Golden Crow once more. As your soul returned, your consciousness has also been restored. It's a blessing in disguise, in its own way."
Inside, Tong Su called upon 666: "What is he talking about?"

Feeling reassured, Tong Su suddenly noticed several lights flying from a distance. The lights descended on the ground, bypassing the thick demonic aura. Cloaked in black capes, with gloomy faces, they kneeled and greeted Tian Xuanzi reverently, "Honorable Master!"
They turned to look at those disciples of the Ziwei Heavenly Palace, who were now prostrating on the ground, and said, "Honorable Master, the boundary gate is closing soon. Time is pressing, we must depart. Should we directly slaughter these righteous cultivators?"
The disciples inhaled sharply with teeth chattering, "De- demon cultivators! They are Nascent Soul stage demon cultivators! What should we do, how can we escape..."
They suddenly seemed to remember something and pleaded desperately to Tian Xuanzi, "Immortal, Immortal, please don't kill us. Considering our shared lineage, we are your juniors!"
"Same sect?" Tian Xuanzi sneered derisively, "When you bullied Tong, why didn't you think that she was part of the same sect as you?"
Stunned and ridiculed by his words, the disciples could only watch as Tian Xuanzi gently stroked the long hair of the young girl in his arms.
He said, "Tong, you're my junior, as a disciple of Tian Xuanzi no one should ever bully you. Only you should bully others. Got it?"
Tong Su looked up in surprise.
So, he was this unreasonably domineering?
But —— she liked it!
"I understand," Tong Su replied.
The few demon cultivators did not move but respected their master. On hearing her reply, they asked, "Honorable master, do you need us to handle them for you?"
Those disciples, knowing they couldn't escape their fate, yelled out in desperate hatred, "Immortal — no, you're a Demon Lord, how can you be so unreasonable?"
Tian Xuanzi raised an eyebrow in amusement, "Unreasonable? I just love being unreasonable, do you have a problem with that?"
"You —"
The disciples were so choked with anger they could not find the words to argue back.
Back when Immortal Jing Yang hadn't fallen to become a Demon, he was the biggest headache at the Ziwei Heavenly Palace —
He was wild, domineering, excessively defensive, and gave no regard to anyone's feelings, yet his cultivation level was the most superior. When others were driven mad by him, they didn't dare to draw their swords. Instead, they had to swallow their pride and apologize personally.
Now, having turned into a Demon, he had grown even worse, completely unrestrained and unrepentant!
