People in Conferred Gods: Rising from humble beginnings, I am the God of Wealth

Chapter 266: Inside the Demon Master’s Palace, plotting against the Star Lord!
Lunar star.

December leaned on the cloud platform, withdrew his gaze from the sea of ​​blood, tilted his head slightly, and had a dazed look on his face.

Ever since Yang Xuan first set up the Nine Stars Turbidity Array, December had sensed it, not only causing the Moon to respond, but also sending down more star power.

He even used the authority of Taiyin in the ancient starry sky to make Ketu, Luohou and other eight stars respond further, bringing more star power to the Nine Stars Turbidity Array to further enhance the power of the array.

Otherwise, even if Yang Xuan set up the Nine-Star Turbidity Array, its power would be greatly reduced.

With Maitreya’s strength, it would be much easier for him to break the formation. If Yang Xuan wanted to force him back, he would have to use more trump cards.

It was for this reason that when Yang Xuan set up the Nine-Star Turbidity Array on the Sea of ​​Blood, December noticed it at the first moment, and sprinkled a ray of moonlight over the sea of ​​blood, ready to take action at any time.

Before achieving Quasi-Sainthood, due to the special situation of the Sea of ​​Blood, even though December was the Lord of the Moon, it was difficult for him to come directly into the Sea of ​​Blood with the help of the moonlight.

Now that she has successfully used Taiyin Star to kill Shanshi, not only does Taiyin Star have more power, she can also mobilize more power of Taiyin Star.

Now, as long as there is no external interference, she can reach any place where the moonlight reaches in an instant, and the same is true for the sea of ​​blood.

With her around, no one in the Western Church can hurt Yang Xuan unless the two saints from the West come in person.

What she didn’t expect was that Yang Xuan’s magical power was so mysterious that he actually “borrowed” the spiritual treasure that Maitreya had refined for many years.

And silently, he destroyed the formation set up by Maitreya, turned the passive situation into active one, and finally, without losing a single soldier, he forced Maitreya, a high-ranking disciple of the Western religion in the late Daluo stage, to retreat.

Looking back now, December still seems incredible.

Even though the gap in cultivation between the two sides was so huge, and Maitreya was in the upper hand, Yang Xuan was able to take the initiative in the midst of chatting and laughing.

It was as if everything was under his control.

In this way, he turned passivity into initiative with ease, thus reversing the situation and defeating a powerful enemy that he could have defeated otherwise.

“I was right. Forming an alliance with him and helping him become the Lord of the Sun Star is the best choice for the demon race!”

December nodded secretly. Through this battle, she not only saw Yang Xuan’s methods of dealing with the enemy, but also his ability to coordinate the overall situation.

She could also clearly feel that Yang Xuan’s Sun Star luck was becoming stronger and stronger.

Yang Xuan’s personal strength is strong, and he has been recognized by the Sun Star. As long as Yang Xuan and the demon clan stand on the same side, helping him become the Lord of the Sun Star will not only be less difficult, but will also be more beneficial to the demon clan.

As for the fact that Yang Xuan was a distinguished guest of the Wu clan, December didn’t take it too seriously.

There is indeed no possibility of reconciliation between the wizards and liches, but as long as the interests of the demon clan can be ensured, what does it matter whether Yang Xuan is a distinguished guest of the wizard clan?

What? You mean Lu Ya? What does that have to do with December?

“That doesn’t seem right. According to Fellow Daoist Yang Xuan’s subsequent arrangements, he should say thank you.”

December drank a cup of Taiyin Laurel tea and smiled meaningfully.

“Speaking of which, it’s almost time to set off…”

December counted with his fingers, then stood up and walked out of Guanghan Palace.

As early as December, shortly after he achieved quasi-sainthood, Lu Ya went to the North Sea and persuaded Kunpeng to issue the Demon Master Order, summoning the high-ranking demon clan members to the Demon Master Hall for discussions.

Although he did not say the content of the meeting, at this point in time, the biggest possibility was for the position of the Lord of the Sun Star.

Now that so many years have passed, I believe that almost all the people who should come have arrived, and it is time to lend a helping hand to Lu Ya.

North Sea.

The Moon appeared from the sky, casting a ray of moonlight that landed in front of the Demon Master’s Palace.

In the moonlight, there was a graceful figure in a plain white dress. She used the moonlight as a ladder and walked slowly. In a blink of an eye, she arrived in front of the Demon Master’s Hall and stepped into it.

At the top of the Demon Master’s Hall, there are four chairs made of precious spiritual objects.

There was a figure sitting on each of three of the seats.

The first one on the left has a human body and a bird’s head. He wears a fiery red robe and his body is covered with feathers burning with red flames. There are nine bird heads on his back. It is the Ghost Chariot of the demon clan!
The second one was wearing a black Taoist robe, with a sinister look on his face and a cold mist all around him. Even the surrounding void seemed to be frozen. It was Kunpeng from the demon clan.

The third one was wearing a white Taoist robe and had a kind face. There was a strange aura of auspiciousness surrounding him, which made people feel close to him and unwilling to be his enemy. He was Bai Ze from the demon clan.

These three are none other than the quasi-saint demons of the demon race!
Under these seats, there were hundreds of creatures of various appearances standing or sitting.

Some have tiger heads and human bodies, some have wings on their backs, and some have three arms…

But these people all have one thing in common, which is their strong aura.

Among the demon clan members in the Demon Master Hall, the lowest level of cultivation is Taiyi Golden Immortal, and there are quite a few Daluo Golden Immortals.

This just proves the old saying that a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even though the demon race has declined after experiencing the wizard-lich calamity, its strength should not be underestimated. It is far more powerful than many of the great tribes in the prehistoric world!

The moment December came in, everyone in the hall turned to look at her, bowed to her, and said respectfully:

“Meet the Twelve Princesses!”

December nodded as a response, then walked to the front, came to the fourth seat at the front and slowly sat down.

She looked in front of the demons and saw a young Taoist priest wearing a green robe and a crane cloak with a scarlet gourd hanging from his waist. He pretended not to know and asked:

“Lu Ya, why did you call us here?”

This young Taoist priest in a green robe and a crane cloak is none other than the only remaining three-legged golden crow of the demon clan – Lu Ya.

He looked at December sitting in the seat above him, and a hint of envy appeared on his face, as well as jealousy hidden deep in his eyes.

If I could become the Lord of the Sun Star and use the Sun Star to kill the good corpse, there would be a seat for me above.

With my strategy, means and status, as long as I become a quasi-saint, how can December compete with me?

The demon clan was created by the Golden Crow, and should be succeeded by the Golden Crow. I am the last Golden Crow in the prehistoric world, and the position of the demon clan will definitely belong to me!
No matter what, I have to convince Kunpeng, Bai Ze and the other two today to get the demon tribe to support me.

Now that the Sun Star has become the target of public criticism, only with the support of the demon clan can I defeat all opponents and become the new Lord of the Sun Star!

After hearing December’s question, Lu Ya quickly adjusted his mentality and kept these things in his heart.

He first bowed to the four people above him, then turned around and bowed to the demons behind him, and said sincerely:
“My fellow tribesmen, the Sun Star has always belonged to my demon tribe. It is also the birthplace of my father. It should belong to my demon tribe in terms of both reason and emotion.”

“As far as I know, there are many creatures in the ancient world who want to get their hands on the Sun Star and become the master of the Sun Star. If we let them succeed, where will the face of our demon clan be?” When the demons present heard this, they did not react much. They were all silent, with a thoughtful look on their faces.

How could they not know what Lu Ya said? They had guessed it as early as December when he successfully used the Moon to entrust the corpse of a good person and achieved the status of a quasi-saint.

If December was able to kill the corpse with the Moon, then the Sun, which is also one of the Nine Luminaries and the two supreme stars in the ancient starry sky, naturally became the primary target of many Daluo Jinxian and even quasi-saints in the prehistoric world.

Top-grade innate spiritual treasures are hard to find, but the Sun Star is right in the ancient starry sky, which saves the trouble of searching. Relatively speaking, it is much easier to obtain.

But the demon clan was not too worried about this matter. Firstly, becoming the Lord of the Sun Star was not an easy thing. One had to get the recognition of the Sun Star, which could not be achieved overnight.

Secondly, the ancient starry sky is now under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court. Haotian has governed the ancient starry sky for countless years. If he does not pay a sufficient price, how can he watch other creatures in the prehistoric world become the masters of the sun star?

Thirdly, the demon clan today is no longer the ruler of heaven and earth as it once was. Even if they want to keep the position of Lord of the Sun Star, they have to do it slowly and must not do anything to make enemies with the entire prehistoric world.

The demon clan can’t afford to lose!

Lu Ya was not a fool. If the demons could see something, naturally he could see it too. He did not expect that he could make the demons make a decision just by saying this.

But seeing that everyone present was silent, he still felt dissatisfied.

“If I achieve quasi-sainthood and become the leader of the demon race, then my words will be God’s will. How could they be like this now?”

Although Lu Ya was unhappy, he didn’t dare to show it, otherwise he would be asking for trouble.

Fortunately, in order to become the Lord of the Sun Star, he began to prepare shortly after the end of the Lich Calamity.

During these years in the Demon Master Hall, he combined the preparations he had made in the past and came up with a set of excuses.

In the final analysis, if you want the demon clan to make a decision, first of all, the matter must be feasible, and secondly, it must be beneficial to the demon clan. Otherwise, even if he is the prince of the demon clan, the result will be the same.

His eyes swept over the monsters, he was silent for a moment, and after readjusting his mindset, a confident smile appeared on his face.

“Everyone, I know your concerns. Like you, I don’t want to see the demon race suffer. Since I have summoned you all here today, I must be confident!”

“Oh? Tell me!”

Kunpeng showed some curiosity. Although he was the one who issued the Demon Master Order, he was not very clear about what Lu Ya should do specifically.

He had complicated feelings towards Lu Ya, the demon prince. During the Lich King Calamity, Lu Ya’s trouble-making and attempts to harm living beings were not a big deal in his opinion.

After all, he has reached his level and has experienced the calamity of the liches and wizards. Many races have been exterminated at his hands. Naturally, he will not care about the life and death of ordinary creatures.

What made Lu Ya most dissatisfied was that Lu Ya’s ten golden crows had exercised the authority of the Sun Star to cause trouble.

After the Lich Calamity was over, without Di Jun, the Lord of the Sun Star, to suppress him, he was eventually rejected by the Sun Star and could not even inherit the throne of the Sun Star, causing the Sun Star to remain ownerless.

Over the years, one of Kunpeng’s major plans has been to make the Sun Star belong to the demon clan again.

It was for this reason that when Lu Ya entrusted the good corpse with Taiyin Star in December and achieved quasi-sagehood, he came to ask him to issue the Demon Master Order, and only then did he agree.

Now hearing Lu Ya say this, he immediately became interested. If what Lu Ya said was really feasible, then Kunpeng would definitely stand on his side.

Seeing Kunpeng taking the initiative to answer, Lu Ya did not dare to keep him in suspense and said hurriedly:

“There are three reasons why I am so sure.”

“First, I am the last Golden Crow in the prehistoric world, and I am naturally compatible with the Sun Star.”

“Although you are rejected by the Sun Star because of the fruit you suffered, you are also the one who has the greatest hope of becoming the master of the Sun Star. I’m sure you all know this.”

Lu Ya glanced at everyone, paused for a moment and then continued:
“Secondly, if you want to become the Lord of the Sun Star, you must first obtain the luck of the Sun Star. I have been planning this since the end of the Lich Calamity.”

“Looking at the entire prehistoric world, no one can match the luck of the Sun Star on me!”

As he spoke, Lu Ya displayed his solar star luck, forming an illusory sun above his head, and the smile on his face became more confident.

Kunpeng and others also nodded secretly. Such luck is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary creatures.

However, December looked at the illusory sun above Lu Ya’s head and felt quite disdainful.

You are right, the solar luck in you is indeed unmatched.

But it’s been such a long time since the Lich Tribulation ended, and you’ve only gained this little bit of luck from the Sun Star. Isn’t that a bit too rubbish?

On the other hand, Yang Xuan has only been around for about ten epochs, and his luck is almost catching up with you, the little sun.

If he were given the same amount of time, the position of the Lord of the Sun Star would have been taken long ago.

“As expected, it is more appropriate to let Fellow Daoist Yang Xuan become the Sun Star Lord. If he becomes the Sun Star Lord, he and I, one yin and one yang, will jointly control the ancient starry sky, which will definitely bring more benefits to the demon race!”

December nodded secretly, looking forward to that day coming soon. Otherwise, if she were to take charge of the ancient starry sky alone, she would really not know where to start.

As for seeking help from Haotian and Queen Mother, or working with a reckless creature like Lu Ya…

Forget it, she doesn’t like this!
Lu Ya had no idea what was in December’s mind. He saw that everyone present nodded secretly, so he struck while the iron was hot and said:

“Third, if you want to become the master of the Sun Star, you must make contributions to the Sun Star.”

“If you want to accomplish this, you must either enhance the authority of the Sun Star, or find what is missing from the Sun Star and perfect its origin.”

“I don’t have any idea how to improve the authority of the Sun Star, but I have an idea on how to find the missing things of the Sun Star.”

“There are four things lost on the Sun Star, namely the River Map, the Luoshu, the Sun God Pearl, and the top-grade innate spiritual root Fusang wood.”

“The River Map and the Luoshu are in the hands of the human race. They are the most precious treasures of the Human Emperor. No one in the prehistoric world can get them. The Sun God Pearl has been lost for many years and no one knows of its existence.”

“After the witch-lich catastrophe, the Fusang tree automatically withdrew from the world and is still ownerless. Over the years, I have discovered some traces of the Fusang tree.”

“As long as I get the Fusang tree and replant it on the Sun Star, I will be recognized by the Sun Star. With my current luck, even if I cannot directly become the master of the Sun Star, I can still get rid of the Sun Star’s disgust.”

Having said this, Lu Ya stopped talking and his meaning was obvious. As long as the Sun Star no longer despised him, with his identity as the Three-legged Golden Crow, could he still become the Lord of the Sun Star?
Everyone present thought so too, and they all showed some interest.

But while they were still hesitating, December took the lead in making a statement…

PS: Here are nearly nine thousand words!
