The Chaos Dragon Prince

These terrifying-looking youths simply stared at Peng Fu with an impassive gaze. Many others would feel a cold shiver crawl up their spines.

But for Peng Fu, he didn't even blink. These two were great geniuses of the Holy Land, even gaining their own titles, known as Demon Tao and Demon Yao.

Not just the sect, their value under Wen Shao surpasses most of his other subordinates.

Yet, such things oddly couldn't affect Peng Fu anymore. His worse condition wasn't able to change his own impassive stare.

He merely gave a nod before saying, "Senior brothers, I've returned with some regrettable news."

Before Peng Fu could deliver said news, Demon Yan coldly chuckled, speaking in a voice that sounded like it come from hell. "Oh? Let me guess...those two powerful freaks surprised you with powerful artifacts and their own clever strats? Really shouldn't expect any less from you. Like I told you all, Emperor Tier geniuses, even the weakest of them, aren't simple at all."

Demon Tao remained silent, keeping his gaze squared on Peng Fu.

A quiet sigh leaked from Peng Fu's lips. If only his senior brother knew what he experienced and saw.

Describing the duo as merely 'not simple' would be an understatement of the century.

Still not breaking his calm facade, Peng Fu helplessly shrugged and said, "It's pretty much as you assume. Their combined prowess is still terrifying, and they really managed to gather a good load of powerful items from the Zhou Family. I suppose this does confirm that the Zhou Family is investing in them."

"And? Did you manage to at least record the battle?" Demon Tao finally spoke to ask.

Shaking his head, Peng Fu continued in his helpless tone. "How could I even focus on gathering information at this point? My life was on the line, so I had no other choice but to escape to the best of my abilities. In all honesty, I'm more than lucky to just be alive. All I can really say is that overestimating them would be the best option."

The demon youths stayed silent for a moment, honest contemplative expressions crossing their faces.

Inwardly, they both felt a small surge of surprise that they needed to seriously consider other youths far weaker in prowess. But at the same time, in terms of Martial Talent, there were some cold, hard facts that they both knew they couldn't deny.

After a few quiet moments, Demon Yan gave a casual shrug. "Whatever. What's done is done. Lord Wen Shao would understand the specialties of an Emperor Tier genius. Moreover, only some unimportant Tian people died while we still have Du Ru in the family. Still, this doesn't mean we can simply give up on those two. It's weird to say, but those two hold a greater potential threat to Lord Wen Shao than even his brother. Their deaths need to be assured."

"Mn. Especially since I'm hearing around that Lord Wen Dao is preparing to head out pretty soon. Given that he spends at least 90% of his time in closed-door cultivation, I'm sure we all can fathom what that means." When Demon Tao finished his thought, he sighed with regret.

"If only the other subordinates in that family got hold of those two first. But out all twists of fate, it had to fall under that mediocre talent of the whole family."

The demons' killing intent was fully ignited. Not only for their own Divine Decree Lord but also because they felt honestly threatened by what the duo could bring.

Since they're on enemy factions, it would be inevitable they would clash together. Such an option would be the worse of them all, considering the duo's ruthless reputation.

Calm as Peng Fu looked, he started to feel a slight sinking suspicion of worry for his masters.

He cautiously asked, "Given how calmly you two took the news, I'm suspecting that you may have something else planned in the woodworks? Are you two perhaps planning to take matters into your own hand?"

Demon Yan gave a slight smirk that was a mixture of confidence and some worry. "Truthfully, though I fear what they can become, I'm still confident either Tao or I can snuff out their lives. It would take some extra planning, but it's not impossible. However, we won't waste our opportunity on this."

"Ah? So it's true? You two are actually close to Peak Stage Divine Star? Hasn't it only been around 50 years since your last breakthrough?" Peng Fu asked in genuine wonder.

"True. That time does seem short. But don't forget Tao and I have been consistently traveling through the central Starfield region. We came across many lucky chances and forged more of our destiny through these situations. After so many natural inspirations, we need a long time to accumulate and digest everything. And now? After so many years...we're finally at the border of Peak Stage! Lord Wen Shao has given us full support for this incoming breakthrough. So we can't waste a single moment honestly. Otherwise, either I or Yan would have killed those threats already."

Demon Ta's words caused a storm to internally rise within Peng Fu. Progressing through the minor boundaries of the higher Divine realm of cultivation is a long and arduous process.

One needs to properly accumulate their Inner World and Laws to the very limit their talent can take them. Accumulations go both for Spiritual Sea perception and the foundation of an Inner World.

Spiritual Sea perception contributes to understanding the greater truths of the Great Daos. While the Inner World foundation contributes to the intake of more powerful Qi energy and Law essence. Both parts which are absolutely crucial and can't progress without the other.

At the Divine Star realm, staying stuck in a minor boundary for a hundred years would be considered slightly above average.

Cultivators in these realms don't really have to worry about using up their lifespans. A Divine Star cultivator can live up to 100,000 years!

Divine Star cultivators intake a greater portion of Heaven and Earth's Divine Essence and fuse their Inner World with a Dao Source Core. Both sources of energies in which it provides tremendous life vitality nourishment.

Most Early Stages Divine Star geniuses would already be around 300 or 400 years old. Demon Tao and Yao, since reaching their current point, had to be around 90 years old!

These demon duo may not be as talented as Divine Decree Lord Wen Shao but compared to an ordinary genius, the difference could be evidently seen.

Peng Fu could only hope his masters have enough time to prepare for them. Pushing past his storming thoughts, Peng Fu asked, "If you're not going, then what about those other plans?"

"Oh, nothing concrete yet." Demon Yan casually waved it off. "Perhaps we could lure them out with a stronger force? Hire a Divine Ruler assassin? Get Du Hu to challenge the weaker one of the two? Or try to get into their minds and control their emotions? All options would be very costly, especially the last one, which requires a Wisdom Path expert. Even Lord Wen Shao's massive funds would be quickly dried up for any one of those options."

"Although...Lord Wen Shao might be willing to take the risk. He's even more paranoid about having everything perfectly settled before the inheritance event." Demon Tao tacked on.

His words made Peng Fu suddenly recall something crucial. Because of recent events, he nearly forgets about this thing altogether.

Peng Fu quickly asked, "Ah, is this about the 5 Divine Blessed King Inheritence opening? Is it truly so close to us?"

"Tch. Of course, all other weak Divine Star people and under aren't fully aware of it. But people like us have been keeping close tabs on it all this time. This opening specifically will be a great opportunity for a faction. Lord Wen Shao is actually going for the Time Inheritence! It may be the second-best among the five, but I'd say it has more powerful abilities than the first-ranked." Demon Yan proudly spoke.

This eagerness was even shared with Demon Tao, given the glint sparkling within his eyes.

However, it wasn't shared with Peng Fu at all. His subtle worries only increased. 'The likely hood of Wen Shao killing master and mistress is low because of Lord Wen Dao. But...if Wen Shao can obtain a good portion of the time inheritance, their deaths may really come!'

When speaking of all the 3000 Great Dao Laws, nobody could really say that there is a Law path this is weaker than others.

Nearly all of the time, the power of a Law depends on a Martial cultivator's comprehension, Inner World, bloodline, and other facets of cultivation.

However, there do exist Law Paths with greater advantages but have a far higher comprehension ceiling.

Time Laws are one of these highly advanced Laws. It's on the same level as the highly elusive Space Laws. Both Laws could only be properly grasped by the true, extreme geniuses of a generation.

And even if they can touch upon it, the time they need to properly cultivate such Laws to a powerful fighting level would be dozens of years.

But just because it's rare, doesn't mean it can't be accomplished.

Peng Fu can recall legends about Time Path masters being able to simply erase Divine Rulers and Holy Kings with a simple wave of their hands. They didn't simply kill a person, rather, those extreme Time Path masters decayed those powerful beings into the dust of the wind.

Even at lower levels, can Time Laws showcase tremendous prowess. Being able to directly manipulate the Time around a person could decide a match with a single move.

One can just imagine the amount of terror a Divine Decree Lord can cause with the power of Time Laws.
