Until the follower who had spoken was overcome with such intense emotion that they were about to prostrate themselves once more, Lin Feng reached out to stop them. "To be honest with you all," he said, "a half-human, half-demon like Fu Yao is seen as an outcast in your eyes, a mongrel in the eyes of the human race, and nothing more than a humanoid medicinal pill in the eyes of the various Demon Kings. That I managed to gain the recognition of the Heavenly Demon's true spirit is sheer luck!"
Revealing his own identity and laying bare his own shortcomings, Lin Feng felt a sense of relief wash over him as he looked toward the vast sky.
"The recognition of heaven and earth, and your willingness to follow me, have only made Fu Yao's resolve all the firmer. Fu Yao intends to unite the entire Demon Race and conquer the world beneath the firmament. Remember this: what you are doing today is not merely an accumulation of merit or cultivation; you are laying a solid and enduring foundation for our Demon Race. As long as Fu Yao lives, your righteous deeds today will be forever etched in my heart."
