Chapter 853: Accepting Their Fate
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
"D-Divine Paragon?! Impossible! It can't be! No human cultivators could possibly live for so long!" The demons were in disbelief after seeing Yuan's familiar face.
After all, tens of millions of years have passed since the Demon Clan was defeated by the Demon Sealing Clan. Even if a cultivator has achieved true immortality, it requires a miracle to live this long without encountering any mishaps, unless they were in seclusion for so long.
"Impossible? Even though I am standing right before you?" Yuan said in a calm voice.
"You're a fake! A mere illusion! You may be able to disguise your appearance, but you can't hide your cultivation and smell! You're too young and weak to be the Divine Paragon!"
"Is that so?"
Yuan suddenly turned to look at Lan Yingying and asked her, "Can I get one of the demon cores?"
Lan Yingying nodded her head and handed him one of the demon cores she just received.
Once the demon core was in his grasp, Yuan opened his mouth and tossed it inside, shocking the demons.
After swallowing the demon core, Yuan opened his mouth to show the demons that he'd really consumed the demon core. "Do you still doubt my identity?" He asked them a moment later. "D- Divine Paragon..."
All five demons fell to their knees after coming to the conclusion that Yuan was truly the Divine Paragon, as there is only one person in the Nine Heavens capable of consuming demon cores.
And once they came to this conclusion, they lost all will to fight. In fact, they could only remain still and tremble in fear.
The demons even subconsciously stopped breathing from fear.
Seeing the condition of these demons, Yuan thought to himself, 'They should be plenty terrified now. This is the best time to kill them. And harvest their demon cores.'
And without hesitation, Yuan suddenly stretched his hand out, stabbing through one of the demon's chest and grabbing its crystal before destroying it.
The demons were well aware that Yuan had just killed one of their companions, but none of them dared to move even a finger and acted like they didn't see it.
In their minds, there was no point resisting before the Divine Paragon. In fact, they might risk offending the Divine Paragon by resisting him, who is famous for torturing demons before consuming their demon cores.
'At least it will be a swift death.'
The demons sighed inwardly and accepted their fate.
They have witnessed the Divine Paragon torture and kill its companions in the middle of an active battlefield before, and they wanted to avoid such a fate at all cost, even if they have to silently lie there and wait for their execution.
'So they're just going to accept their fate, huh?' Yuan realized this as he killed the second demon.
Not including the Divine Paragon's memories, this is his first time seeing demons give up in such a fashion.
Yuan pitied these demons for a brief moment, but then he recalled the scene of demons bathing in the Red Pond and many more terrible things that they have done to humans.
A few moments later, Yuan approached the last demon alive, who was also the strongest demon in the group.
"Before you kill me, can I ask you a question?" The demon suddenly spoke in a low voice.
"What?"

"Is it true that you wiped out the demons within the Demonic Realm?" The demon lifted its head and stared at Yuan with a profound expression.
"What do you think?" Yuan responded with his own question.
"You're definitely more than capable, but whether you actually killed them... I cannot say for sure."
After a moment of silence, Yuan said, "I don't know."
"You don't know...? Or you don't want to answer?"
"The former." Yuan said.
And without elaborating any further, Yuan finished off the demon.
After killing all of the demons, Yuan collected the demon cores and deactivated the Demon Sealing Zone.
"Good work, Young Master. Those demons trembled before your presence." Feng Yuxiang said to him afterward.
"Thank you, but if I have to be honest, I'm a little disappointed by the results. It didn't feel good killing beings that have no will to fight, even if they are demons." He sighed.
He then turned to look at Lan Yingying and said, "Here, take these."
"Demon cores? Why are you giving them to me?" She asked with a puzzled face.
"I want you to use them to further strengthen yourself," he said.
"Thank you, but I think you need them more than I do. If you consume these demon cores, you'll definitely become a Spirit King." Lan Yingying said.
"That might be true, but I want to become a Spirit King through the Demon Sealing Pagoda, and there is less than a month before I can challenge it again. You know, increasing my companion's prowess is just as important as raising my own."
"Then I won't be humble." Lan Yingying nodded and accepted the demon cores.
"Thank you, Yuan."
"Anyways, with the demons gone, let's scout this place to make sure we don't leave anything useful behind. Who knows, we might find another treasure or two in here." Yuan said a moment later.
And he continued, "I don't sense any other presence beside ours in this place, so it should be safe to split up to make the search quicker."
Feng Yuxiang nodded and said, "I will take the north area."
"Then I will look around the south side." Lan Yingying said.
"I will go west. Whenever you finish with your area, go to the east side and we'll group up there." Yuan said.
"I understand."
Sometime later, they split up and descended into the ruined city.
'This place looks pretty beat up...' Yuan thought to himself as he walked through the street with his divine sense activated, as that was more efficient and convenient than searching house by house.
However, even after many minutes of searching, Yuan was unable to find anything that was remotely useful.
After going through his area twice without finding anything, he started making his way towards the east side of the city..
