Starting With 100 Million Lives-Chapter 631: Could It Be the Same Person?

"He said, I have no enmity with your White Profound Race."

"I've spared your White Profound Race twice now, haven't killed a single person."

Brother Cheng shrugged: "So I now know he and the previous otherworldly evil demon are the same person."

He actually managed to smoothly explain it.

The Great Hall Master heard this and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Exchanging glances with Li Hanyu, they could both see the look of relief in each other's eyes like one who had narrowly escaped disaster.

This powerful otherworldly evil demon harbors no malice towards the White Profound Race.

This is simply the greatest news they've heard in their lifetime.

"If this is true, then that's wonderful!"

"Of course, it's true, I dare to stake my life on it!"

"This kid, don't go swearing recklessly."

Although internally feeling Sage Jiang's words might be slightly exaggerated, the Great Hall Master was still reassured nonetheless.

This otherworldly evil demon and the one the White Profound Race encountered last time are indeed the same person, which certainly eases one's mind.

Last time, despite being attacked twice, not a single White Profound Race person was killed.

Back then, during their discussions, they even considered this the benevolent anomaly among otherworldly evil demons.

"It seems that when we return, we must restrain the clan members and ensure not to provoke him again."

After being spared twice, to provoke him further would truly be courting death.

Upon hearing this, Brother Cheng also recalled a flaw.

The Guard Captain at that time, as well as the few Sub-Pavilion Masters later at the Soul Gathering Pool, have seen him before.

If they were to see him again at the Divine Hall Headquarters, they'd immediately recognize the Great Sage as the otherworldly evil demon.

This won't do; his spirit attachment endeavors are only partly completed.

So he hurriedly added, "Oh, he also said something else."

The Great Hall Master's face tightened, quickly asking, "What did he say?"

When it comes to that otherworldly evil demon, she dared not be careless.

"He said, to those who've had conflicts with him before, although he hasn't killed them, he doesn't wish to see them again, especially at the Divine Hall Headquarters."

"Ah!"

The Great Hall Master panicked.

"Quick, quick, head back!"

"What's the matter?"

"Lu Yunlin is currently at the Divine Hall Headquarters, I must quickly order her to leave and not return."

"And other people too, during this period, they must try to stay isolated from the outside, lest they encounter that otherworldly evil demon."

Though this order might be somewhat unfair to Lu Yunlin and the batch of Guard Captains and Sub-Pavilion Masters, it's for their own safety.

Concerning the fate of the whole race, one must be decisive without being softhearted.

No need for Brother Cheng to urge, the Great Hall Master promptly dismantled the Spiritual Pattern Restriction and hurried back with him and Li Hanyu.

Within just one day, the three had returned to the White Profound Race Divine Hall Headquarters.

Seeing the Great Sage rescued and unharmed, the assembled Masters erupted in joyous cheers.

But the Great Hall Master had no time for celebration.

Her first order was to quickly assign a task that sends Lu Yunlin away, while exempting her and the batch of Guard Captains from future regular evaluations.

Then, using another task, all Sub-Pavilion Masters who had contact with the "otherworldly evil demon" that day were relocated to a remote area bordering the Golden Profound Race to manage the Profound Stone Mine...

After all orders were issued, she finally felt relieved.

Hopefully, that elder otherworldly evil demon would be satisfied!

The other Masters expressed their incomprehension.

The Water Spirit Hall Master wondered, "Great Hall Master, why relocate them, are they inside agents?"

"No, they aren't."

The Great Hall Master shook her head: "You should know, the reason the Black Profound Race was annihilated this time is because of the otherworldly evil demon."

"Indeed!"

At the mention of the otherworldly evil demon, the expressions of the assembled Masters turned solemn, losing the earlier joy of welcoming back the Great Sage.

The consistently combative Battle Spirit Hall Master voiced concern: "This time, the otherworldly evil demon's power is too strong."

"I'm afraid even if we gather the forces of our three races, Golden Profound, and Silver Profound, we couldn't withstand him."

Just below his power, the Master of the Hall of Light gravely nodded.

"Yes, his achievements are so despairing, they don't stir any thought of resistance."

No one ridiculed him for this dispirited remark.

The other Hall Masters felt similarly; facing such strength, what could they use to resist?

The Water Spirit Hall Master let out a soft sigh: "The Profound Realm's catastrophic disaster might soon arrive."

The mood inside the hall was overwhelmingly somber, filled with a tragic despair as great calamity loomed.

Even the Wood Spirit Hall Master bowed his head in silence.

Seeing everyone's reaction, the Great Hall Master laughed aloud.

"Don't worry, our White Profound Race should be fine."

"Huh?"

The Masters all looked up.

"Why?"

"This otherworldly evil demon is the same person as the one discovered last time, he bears no malice towards us White Profound."

The Great Hall Master straightforwardly recounted Brother Cheng's "lies."

Once she finished, the expressions of the people inside the hall were exceptionally vivid. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"It's actually the same person?"

"Isn't this too miraculous?"

"Gosh, his power is tenfold stronger than we imagined!"

"Of all people, the Black Profound bothered him?"

"Looking at it this way, the Great Sage was actually saved by him!"

"Indeed, such fortune, haha..."

Knowing the otherworldly evil demon was so "amenable," everyone let out a sigh of relief.

The looming black cloud had temporarily lifted.

"It seems we shouldn't seek him anymore in the future."

"Right, absolutely don't investigate him again, lest we anger him."

The Battle Spirit Hall Master even voiced relief: "Luckily, we didn't find him last time."

Had they found him, she might have been killed.

"It's rare for him to be so lenient with our White Profound Race, we mustn't be foolishly insensible."

They finally understood the purpose of the Great Hall Master's two orders.

"That's right, Lu Yunlin's group had provoked him; perhaps their power was simply too weak back then, so the elder didn't bother to hold a grudge."

The Master of the Hall of Light speculated cleverly: "But someone of his caliber is destined not to be slighted, so not wanting to see them again is understandable."

The Fire Spirit Hall Master nodded, wholeheartedly agreeing: "Indeed, we must go along with it and show him the due respect."

Indeed, the Xuan Race and otherworldly evil demons are naturally adversaries.

But those who've ascended to the position of Hall Master are concerned with the safety of their race; they act neither on mere preferences nor whims.

When the evil demon's power becomes overwhelming, cooperation becomes the sensible choice.

At this moment, the Great Hall Master's brow furrowed slightly.

"Wood Spirit Hall Master, we can't afford to be careless about this; perhaps you should personally go to the border to oversee them?"

The Wood Spirit Hall Master wasn't foolish; he realized Bai Luozhen was using the task to send him away, thus removing himself as a "potential risk" from near Jiang Cheng.

After Lei Gao's betrayal incident, people had been wary of him.

Yet despite realizing it, he could only accept.

After his departure, the Great Hall Master mysteriously dropped her voice to the remaining seven Hall Masters and said, "Something major has happened to the Great Sage this time!"
