"Spare our lives, Lord World-Destroying Demon Emperor! We two did not know the Demon Emperor was before us and offended you, please..."
The two begged frantically for mercy.
"Wait, what did you just call this emperor?" Gu Qingfeng was slightly taken aback, a bad premonition suddenly rising in his heart.
"Lord Demon Emperor, please don't joke with us. We offended you earlier, but we are willing to offer all our possessions, only begging you to spare our lives."
Trembling, the two offered up two Qiankun Rings.
Gu Qingfeng instinctively took the Qiankun Rings and continued asking, "You're saying that this emperor is the World-Destroying Demon Emperor?"
Xiang Tianwen and Elder Ye exchanged a glance, unsure of what this demon meant.
The appearance of the World-Destroying Demon Emperor had long spread throughout the Meteor Abyss, and it was exactly the same as the person before them. Could it be he wasn't the World-Destroying Demon Emperor?
Just someone who looked like him?
In truth, they wished nothing more than for Gu Qingfeng to not be the World-Destroying Demon Emperor; that way, they might actually survive.
"My Lord, you look exactly like the legendary World-Destroying Demon Emperor. This lowly one shouldn't be mistaken," Xiang Tianwen forced a smile.
Exactly the same?!
Gu Qingfeng grew even more puzzled. That shouldn't be right. Could someone be acting under his name?
This emperor has been operating in the forbidden zones recently and has never done anything heinous. It makes no sense for the title of World-Destroying Demon Emperor to suddenly emerge.
"The two of you, tell me everything you know about the World-Destroying Demon Emperor, detail by detail."
Unsure of his intentions but pressured by his aura, the two had no choice but to recount everything that had happened recently in full detail.
Gu Qingfeng listened quietly, the expressions on his face becoming increasingly colorful. Devouring the Immortal Kings of the Immortal King Hall, annihilating the Xuanming Waters, flattening six great forbidden zones in just over a month...
Hearing these deeds from their mouths, even if Gu Qingfeng didn't want to admit it, he had to.
Could he really be the World-Destroying Demon Emperor? Otherwise, why were all the things the World-Destroying Demon Emperor did exactly the things he had done?
But why had this suddenly spread across the whole world?
"How did you learn of these things? And why do the two of you recognize this emperor?" Gu Qingfeng said with a gloomy face.
The two dared not hide anything.
"A few days ago, all the flowers in the world spoke, transmitting a single sentence and an image."
"What sentence?"
"A demon... a demon emerges from the falling star, and the world shall collapse! And that image was exactly the scene of you displaying your divine might to annihilate the Senluo Ghost Realm and the Forest of Rebirth."
Boom!!
A terrifying aura erupted from Gu Qingfeng's body.
That abyssal, majestic demonic energy shot straight into the clouds, as if piercing a hole in the sky. For a moment, the world changed color, the void distorted, and the waters of the River of Laws surged and churned ceaselessly.
"Hua! Cai! Yu!!"
A chilling roar echoed, seemingly originating from the Nine Nether Underworld.
The moment Gu Qingfeng heard the word flowers, he knew exactly who the mastermind behind all this was.
Who else could make all the flowers in the world speak and know of his deeds, other than Hua Caiyu?
"Spare our lives, Lord Demon Emperor!"
"Spare us!!"
Gu Qingfeng's sudden fury terrified the two into thinking they were about to die, and they begged frantically for mercy.
At this moment, they no longer doubted whether Gu Qingfeng was the World-Destroying Demon Emperor. The aura he just erupted with was simply too terrifying, even more so than a peak Immortal King.
Moreover, the aura was extremely evil. If an ordinary person were tainted by even the slightest bit of it, they would perish in an instant.
With such monstrous demonic might, who else could he be but the World-Destroying Demon Emperor?
Gu Qingfeng ignored their pleas and asked, "So, everyone in the world knows that this emperor is the World-Destroying Demon Emperor?"
The two nodded frantically.
He grew even angrier. Now he finally understood why he hadn't seen the masters of the forbidden zones despite flattening six of them in a row.
It turned out they had long known his objective, so they all went into hiding.
At first, he thought the masters of the six great forbidden zones had some secret method of passing information and had communicated with each other, causing him to come up empty-handed.
Now it seemed the situation was much more serious.
Not only did the forbidden zone masters know the news, but the whole world knew.
Now, the fact that he was a great demon lord who liked to devour others' cultivation could no longer be hidden.
What was he supposed to do now?
Half-step Immortal Lords were already rare enough, and now they were all hiding. Where the hell was he supposed to find them?
If this continued, even the Immortal Kings would probably go into hiding.
Hua Caiyu was so damn venomous!
Fuck!
Xiang Tianwen and Elder Ye felt the heaven-shaking killing intent radiating from Gu Qingfeng. Both were trembling with fear, not daring to breathe heavily lest the sound of their breathing anger the World-Destroying Demon Emperor.
Gu Qingfeng's face remained dark and uncertain for a long time. Only after quite a while did he calm down.
At this moment, he already had a plan in mind.
Since his demonic reputation had spread across the world, many things would become inconvenient.
Those experts had likely become easily frightened birds. The moment they heard news of this emperor anywhere, they would probably hide immediately.
For now, the best solution was to put on a disguise, sneak in quietly, and then make his move.
With a thought, the demonic light on Gu Qingfeng's body began to slowly fade, replaced by streams of brilliant immortal light.
Immediately following, his facial features, body shape, and even his clothes began to change.
In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a young Daoist priest wearing a dark Daoist robe, his hair tied in a Daoist bun, looking as gentle as jade.
As for his cultivation, he was still a Quasi-Immortal King; there was no need to disguise that at all.
Xiang Tianwen and his companion watched Gu Qingfeng's transformation, too astonished to speak.
This transformation was flawless. Not a single flaw could be seen, as if this were Gu Qingfeng's true form.
Gu Qingfeng had roamed unhindered for years and had countless family members. A mere Dao of Transformation was something he was incredibly proficient in. With his current strength, as long as he didn't use his true power, it would be very difficult for anyone to see through him.
After doing all this, Gu Qingfeng turned his gaze back to the two men.
Their hearts immediately skipped a beat. Xiang Tianwen, being quick-witted, instantly understood the meaning behind Gu Qingfeng's actions and spoke rapidly, "Is Lord Demon Emperor intending to participate in the Immortal King Assembly? This lowly one is willing to lead the way!"
"Jie jie jie... uh... hahaha..."
Gu Qingfeng thought for a moment and quickly controlled his voice, making sure not to let out his signature villainous laugh.
"Not bad, you are a smart person. This emperor... this poor Daoist indeed plans to attend the Immortal King Assembly. I've heard there are opportunities to prove one's Dao and become an Immortal King at the assembly. As a Quasi-Immortal King, this poor Daoist also wishes to try his luck and see if there are any gains to be made," Gu Qingfeng said with a gentle smile on his face.
His smile made Xiang Tianwen tremble with fear.
"My Lord, this lowly one is the Young Master of the Sun-Concealing Sect. With my status, I can absolutely bring you inside."
Gu Qingfeng's smile grew even more amiable. "Fellow Daoist Xiang, please rise quickly. This poor Daoist is Daoist Qingfeng. I shall trouble you then, Fellow Daoist."
Xiang Tianwen bounced up from the ground as if he had been electrocuted. He wouldn't dare let the World-Destroying... Daoist Qingfeng help him up.
An unnaturally terrified smile appeared on his face as he forced a laugh, "Fellow Daoist Qingfeng is too polite. You and I hit it off right from the start. Since you do not disdain my company, please let us travel together."
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork.

I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
