"Grandpa."
"After telling you so much about the Secret Realm just now, don't you understand yet?"
"Qin Feiyang and the others are no longer what they used to be."
"If the Swallowing Heaven Beast hadn't meddled, our Divine Kingdom would have been wiped out by them by now."
Dong Yuexian sighed.
"Absurd!"
The Divine Kingdom Master sneered. "So what if each of them obtained a Profound Meaning of Law? They still need time to comprehend it. This much time alone is more than enough for me to slaughter them!"
"It's not that easy!"
"Won't you just listen to advice for once?"
"Even if we go to war now, we won't gain any advantage."
"It will only plunge the Central Dynasty and the entire Divine Kingdom into devastation, with rivers of blood."
Dong Yuexian said.
Inner Demon took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "If you are willing to reconcile, I will give you this Profound Meaning of Light and Dark Laws as well."
"Your Profound Meaning of Light and Dark Laws?"
"Do you think you can still keep it now that I want it?"
The Divine Kingdom Master smiled disdainfully.
"So, there's no room for negotiation then."
Inner Demon frowned.
"What do you think?"
The Divine Kingdom Master sneered.
"You are playing with fire."
"That Swallowing Heaven Beast really got in the way. Otherwise, let alone the Divine Kingdom, even you would have already died by the Madman's sword."
Inner Demon said with vexation.
To deal with the Central Dynasty and the Divine Kingdom Master, the Madman had specially spent millennia in the Starry Sea absorbing Evil Power, but in the end, it was all swept away by the Swallowing Heaven Beast.
"The Swallowing Heaven Beast got in the way?"
The Emperor and his wife exchanged glances, a hint of suspicion in their eyes.
Dong Yuexian had mentioned the Swallowing Heaven Beast earlier, and now Inner Demon mentioned it again. How did it feel like the Swallowing Heaven Beast was targeting these people?
Weren't these people on the same side as the Swallowing Heaven Beast?
"Do you know why we forced our way into the four forbidden zones of the Starry Sea?"
"The biggest reason was the Madman's Sword of Ten Thousand Evils."
"His Sword of Ten Thousand Evils can stack infinitely, capable of instantly killing even powerhouses of the New Realm."
"Originally, he had absorbed enough Evil Power in the Starry Realm specifically to deal with our Divine Kingdom. But after leaving the Secret Realm, the Swallowing Heaven Beast suddenly descended upon the starry river and snatched all that Evil Power away."
"So, we should actually be grateful."
Dong Yuexian sighed.
"What?"
"Capable of instantly killing even powerhouses of the New Realm?"
The couple was dumbfounded.
Could it be that absurd?
The Divine Kingdom Master frowned and asked, "Why would the Swallowing Heaven Beast do such a thing?"
"To the Swallowing Heaven Beast, the war between us and Qin Feiyang and the others is just a game—it just does whatever is most entertaining."
Dong Yuexian said.
"That damned thing!"
The Divine Kingdom Master fumed.
"So Grandpa, we can't keep making mistakes, or we'll definitely be the ones who suffer in the end."
Dong Yuexian was pleading with all her heart.
"Shut up!"
The Divine Kingdom Master flew into a rage out of humiliation, raising his hand to slap Dong Yuexian across the face.
Inner Demon had been keeping his eyes on the Divine Kingdom Master all along.
The moment the Divine Kingdom Master raised his arm, Inner Demon immediately raised his own, grabbing the Divine Kingdom Master's wrist.
"How insolent!"
The Divine Kingdom Master was furious.
A monstrous aura surged forth like a roaring tide.
Inner Demon was blasted flying on the spot, his arm instantly pulverized.
"Daddy!"
Xiaoxi cried out in alarm.
Dong Yuexian's expression also changed drastically. She hurriedly gathered Xiaoxi in her arms, rushed over to Inner Demon, and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
"I won't die."
Inner Demon shook his head, activating the Law of Life to quickly heal the injury on his arm.
Without the Eye of Life, repairing an arm still required some time.
"Grandpa, you're going too far!"
Dong Yuexian glared at the Divine Kingdom Master.
"Xian'er, watch your tongue!"
"Quickly apologize to your grandfather!"
Seeing that Dong Yuexian actually dared to reprimand the Divine Kingdom Master, the Emperor and his wife turned pale and hastily shouted.
"Apologize?"
"No way."
"Grandpa, you only care about yourself. You never think about the safety of our clansmen, nor do you care about the fate of the billions of living beings in the Divine Kingdom."
"You are utterly selfish!"
Dong Yuexian yelled.
This was the first time in her life she had ever spoken to the Divine Kingdom Master like this.
"This is outrageous! Simply outrageous!"
The Divine Kingdom Master was consumed by fury.
Wisps of the Power of Origin surged from between his brows, emitting a world-destroying divine might.
These weren't just a few strands, dozens, or hundreds.
There were massive quantities of them.
An incalculable amount!
"Father, please calm your anger."
"Xian'er is just temporarily confused."
The Emperor and his wife pleaded repeatedly while glaring at Dong Yuexian in anger. "Hurry up and apologize to your grandfather!"
It was enough to drive someone crazy with anxiety.
If they had known it would turn out like this, they never should have let their daughter enter the Secret Realm.
Because if she hadn't entered the Secret Realm, she wouldn't have fallen in love with Inner Demon, let alone given birth to Xiaoxi.
"No!"
"I haven't done anything wrong!"
"The ones who are wrong are Grandpa and you all."
Dong Yuexian shook her head stubbornly.
"Rebellion! This is outright rebellion!"
The Divine Kingdom Master was driven mad with rage.
Endless Power of Origin surged like a tidal wave toward the family of three.
"Great-Grandpa, you're really nasty."
Xiaoxi glared angrily at the Divine Kingdom Master, opening her little palms as the power of the five Beast Emperors surged forth to meet the Power of Origin.
"How did things turn out like this?"
"Do something, think of a way!"
Ji Suyi was frantic with anxiety, yelling at the Emperor.
"What way could I possibly have?"
The Emperor was also burning with anxiety.
As for Dong Ping, he watched this scene with a face full of schadenfreude.
As for Dong Xin, she remained completely silent throughout.
Boom!
The Power of Origin and the power of the five Beast Emperors violently collided.
The Power of Origin was disintegrating.
However!
The current situation was different from before with the Emperor.
Previously, the Emperor's Power of Origin was limited.
But now, the Divine Kingdom Master's Power of Origin was boundless and inexhaustible.
Therefore.
The power of the five Beast Emperors was also gradually being worn away and disintegrated.
"What do we do?"
Dong Yuexian looked helplessly at Inner Demon.
"Don't worry, I will never let anything happen to you and Xiaoxi."
Inner Demon patted Dong Yuexian's hand, offering reassurance.
Dong Ping looked at Xiaoxi, filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Just a little girl, what qualifications did she have to receive the affection of the five Beast Emperors?
Suddenly.
He caught sight of the mark between the little girl's eyebrows. A flash of malicious venom crossed his eyes, and he shouted, "Grandpa, Xiaoxi also has a Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws on her!"
"What?"
"A Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws!"
At these words.
The Divine Kingdom Master and the Emperor and his wife couldn't help but tremble in shock.
How could this be?
How could a little girl possess a Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws?
Meanwhile, Dong Xin also stared at Dong Ping in shock.
What are you trying to do?
"Dong Ping, you're courting death!"
Likewise.
Inner Demon and Dong Yuexian glared murderously at Dong Ping.
They had intended to keep the secret of the Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws hidden forever.
Dong Yuexian hadn't even planned to tell her own biological parents, the Emperor and his wife.
Because only by doing so could Xiaoxi be safely protected.
Yet she never expected Dong Ping to blurt it out now.
"Grandpa, it's that mark right between her eyebrows—that is the Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws!"
"As long as you extract it and master the Supreme Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws, let alone Qin Feiyang and his crew, even the Swallowing Heaven Beast and the Ice Dragon will be crushed beneath your feet!"
Dong Ping said.
The Divine Kingdom Master immediately looked at the center of Xiaoxi's brows, his eyes, veiled behind divine light, filled with greed.
"Is it really the Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws?"
The Emperor and his wife murmured, hardly daring to believe it.
"Yes."
"This was given to the little girl by the Guardian of Demon City when she left Demon City."
The voice of the Heaven and Earth Bronze Furnace rang out.
"It really is."
The couple froze in a daze.
These little fellows were truly formidable!
Not only had they acquired so many Profound Meaning of Laws of the Supreme Law, but they had also obtained a Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws.
"Xiaoxi, be a good girl, come to Great-Grandpa."
The Divine Kingdom Master smiled and said.
Dong Yuexian held Xiaoxi tightly in her arms.
Because from the tone of the Divine Kingdom Master's voice, she heard a certain emotion—it was yearning, and it was greed.
Inner Demon shielded the mother and daughter behind him, staring fixedly at the Divine Kingdom Master as he shouted, "I'm warning you, don't you dare harbor any thoughts about this Profound Meaning!"
Ji Suyi asked suspiciously, "The Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws is such an important thing, Xian'er, why didn't you tell us?"
"Mother, I couldn't say anything because it concerns Xiaoxi's life."
Dong Yuexian shook her head.
"It concerns Xiaoxi's life?"
"What is that supposed to mean?"
Ji Suyi was puzzled.
Dong Yuexian said, "This Profound Meaning has already fused with Xiaoxi. If it is forcefully extracted, Xiaoxi will lose her life. That's why, to protect Xiaoxi, we wanted to keep this secret."
"Don't you even trust us?"
Ji Suyi looked at Dong Yuexian with a trace of disappointment.
Dong Yuexian shook her head and said, "Mother, it's not that I don't trust you. I just wanted to protect Xiaoxi and let her grow up safe and sound."
"Sigh!"
Ji Suyi let out a sigh.
"How could such a thing be possible?"
"I see that you've just grown wings now, and you don't want to hand over this Profound Meaning to us, so you've made up such an absurd excuse."
The Divine Kingdom Master sneered.
"Grandpa, I really didn't lie to you."
Dong Yuexian shook her head, pointing at the Heaven and Earth Bronze Furnace, and cried out, "If you don't believe me, you can ask it."
"It's been with you for so long, who knows if it's been bribed by you?"
"Didn't you want to reconcile?"
"Fine, I agree to reconcile with Qin Feiyang and the others, but the prerequisite is that you must hand over this Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws to me."
The Divine Kingdom Master said.
"We have already made ourselves perfectly clear."
"This Profound Meaning has fused into one with Xiaoxi. If you strip it away, Xiaoxi will die. Are you incapable of understanding human speech?"
"Or are you intentionally playing dumb, unable to resist the temptation of the Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws, and wanting to murder your own great-granddaughter?"
Inner Demon roared angrily.
"Cut the crap!"
"I'll give you two choices."
"First, hand it over voluntarily. Second, I'll take it myself!"
The Divine Kingdom Master said.
"No way!"
Inner Demon shook his head.
Before leaving, the Guardian of Demon City had explicitly instructed that this Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws must under no circumstances be extracted.
"Then it seems I have no choice but to take it myself."
The Divine Kingdom Master smiled coldly.
Seeing this.
The Emperor grew extremely anxious, and immediately looked at the Heaven and Earth Bronze Furnace, asking, "Is this true?"
"It is."
"Otherwise, do you think you'd even have a chance to lay eyes on this Profound Meaning now? It would have fallen into Qin Feiyang's hands long ago."
The Heaven and Earth Bronze Furnace said.
"That makes sense."
The couple nodded.
Both Qin Feiyang and Inner Demon had mastered the laws of life and death.
If not for this situation, this Profound Meaning of Life and Death Laws would either be in Qin Feiyang's hands or Inner Demon's hands right now, and certainly wouldn't be on Xiaoxi.
