Since the opponent wasn't instantly killed, and it's still unclear who the opponent is...
The Demon Emperor fell into deep thought, considering various possibilities. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and a terrifying idea popped into his head. He exclaimed, "The power of the Three Realms!"
The moment those four words were uttered, the Venerable One opposite him trembled. Although it was only a very subtle movement, it did not escape the Demon Emperor's eyes.
His Majesty's instinctive reaction gave the Demon Emperor the answer; he had guessed correctly.
It truly is the power of the Three Realms.
It was precisely because that wisp of spirit used the power of the Three Realms that the Venerable One was unable to determine which side she belonged to.
If that's the case, that person's strength is truly terrifying.
The Demon Emperor's shock was not noticed by the Venerable One. The Venerable One's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he was not from the Demon Realm?
She wanted to tell the Demon Emperor today to test him and see which side he was on.
If she could roughly guess the direction, she could make some plans as soon as possible.
"It seems this matter is not so simple," the Demon Emperor said meaningfully.
A mysterious master, hidden in some unknown faction, is proficient in the power of the three realms. It's truly unsettling.
"In which aspect of the power of the Three Realms is that person stronger?" The Demon Emperor had already automatically regarded that wisp of soul as a human.
There was no way around it; it was obvious that it couldn't be a real ghost. It must have been some expert who used the power of soul control to force the soul out of the body.
However, even when cultivating the power of the Three Realms, there is always a difference between being familiar with it and being relatively familiar with it.
Even the slightest difference would be completely exposed in front of a master like Your Excellency.
After all, His Excellency's strength is undeniable.
Upon hearing the Demon Emperor's question, the Venerable One frowned slightly and slowly shook his head: "The same."
"The same?" The Demon Emperor clearly didn't quite understand the meaning behind the Venerable One's words and asked in confusion.
"The power of the three realms is equally strong." Even now, when the Venerable One recalls the scene from that day, he still feels lingering fear.
"How is this possible?" the Demon Emperor exclaimed in a low voice. Who would have the ability to cultivate three different powers to be equally powerful?
Just as the Demon Emperor was racking his brains, a name suddenly appeared in his mind—Liu Lanyan.
Could it be her?
That mysterious master?
Chapter 149 Each with Their Own Purpose
""
Although he was thinking these thoughts, the Demon Emperor didn't show it on the surface at all; in fact, it wasn't entirely an act.
After all, this was merely the Demon Emperor's own speculation; he was simply drawing inferences from past events.
His Majesty was certain that the person was a woman, which is why he thought that way.
If His Majesty wasn't so certain, he would rather believe it was a demon god.
After all, no one can say for sure how powerful the demon god really is after a thousand years.
"Any leads?" His Majesty wanted to ask the Demon Emperor to see which side he could think of that had the power.
If we can guess the general trend, we can at least make more preparations.
The Demon Emperor slowly shook his head: "Such a person is not my subordinate."
The Demon Emperor's words had a deeper meaning: not being his subordinate did not mean they were not from the Demon Realm.
Everyone knows that there are other forces in the Three Realms, but who knows which ones?
After all that talk, they only ruled out the Demon Emperor, which made it impossible for the Venerable One to analyze who it really was.
The problem was left unresolved, and His Majesty did not insist on finding the person.
How could she possibly find someone like that so easily? She just needs to be prepared and take precautions.
"There's no time to lose, let's set off tomorrow. We'll reach the outskirts of the Demon Realm around sunset. Once we get there, we won't need to go any further; someone from the Demon Realm will come to fight us." The Venerable One glanced at the Demon Emperor, asking for his opinion.
"Okay." The Demon Emperor had no objection to the choice of location, since the final result would be the same: a fight.
Location doesn't matter to them; in the end, it's all about strength.
"This time, we will completely eliminate the demon realm," the Venerable One said confidently.
The Demon Emperor did not speak, but simply looked at His Majesty quietly.
After a pause, His Excellency said, "The issues between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm can be resolved later."
The Venerable One did not shy away from saying that she would not take action against the Demon Realm.
If she really said that, then she's incredibly fake.
It is common knowledge that the Immortal Realm looks down on the Demon Realm and the Monster Realm, and Your Majesty has no need to hide it.
"Your Majesty is truly magnanimous." The Demon Emperor's voice rang out coldly, his expressionless face revealing neither his joy nor anger, nor whether he was sincere or not.
"If you want to cooperate, you must show sincerity." His Excellency said with the same indifference.
