Chapter 1352 - 1352: Supreme Palace Master, I Was Wrong

"No!"

Tansha Daoist Venerable never expected, even in his dreams, that Purple-Brown Daoist Venerable, instead of listening to reason, would actually attack him.

The vast difference in numbers left him utterly powerless to resist.

Bang!

A palm strike landed, and although there were no flying flesh and blood, shattered stones flew everywhere.

Because Tansha belonged to the Stone Race.

This time, Purple-Brown Bear Pi did not hold back, choosing direct extermination.

Simultaneously, other Supremes and Celestial Venerables of the Bear Race, unwilling to be outdone, roared as they charged at other Stone Race People.

"No, you can't do this!"

"We are not enemies..."

"You should be dealing with the Ice Palace!"

The two hundred Stone Race People were extremely terrified, either screaming or fleeing.

But the experts of the Bear Race wouldn't listen to this.

They were only thinking about redeeming themselves to satisfy Demon Lord Jiang.

After all, they had been the ones bombarding the Micro Dust Secret Realm of the Ice Palace outside just now.

This battle didn't last long because the power gap was too large.

There was no suspense whatsoever.

The Stone Race was quickly annihilated, including Tansha Daoist Venerable; not a single one survived.

Looking at the lifeless rubble on the ground, the women of the Ice Palace felt a mix of secret satisfaction and a trace of chill in their hearts.

This Bear Race was indeed powerful and brutal.

Not the kind to be underestimated.

If they attacked the Ice Palace, just one round of assault would end the same way.

Now, their survival depended on Brother Cheng, the newly appointed Supreme Palace Master.

Based on his reputation, surely... he could make the 'moody' Purple-Brown Daoist Venerable retreat?

"Demon Lord, are you satisfied now?"

After taking down Tansha Daoist Venerable, Purple-Brown Bear Pi eagerly came to claim credit.

"You see, I'm not in league with the Stone Race at all."

"The attack on the Ice Palace was completely a trap set by them; we are truly innocent..."

Brother Cheng was actually very annoyed.

The Bear Race was considered his own, couldn't be killed.

The opposing Demon Race were subordinates of Emperor Bear Pi, also couldn't be killed.

The only ones who could be dealt with were Tansha Daoist Venerable and the Stone Race People.

In the end, even that rare chance to show strength was snatched by the Bear Race's self-made initiative.

"It's been years, and you're still damn capable!" he said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.

Purple-Brown Bear Pi didn't catch his meaning and thought he was genuinely being praised.

"Hehe, Demon Lord, you flatter us; this is what we should do."

"So, can we leave now?"

"Leave?"

Brother Cheng gritted his teeth, his anger rising.

"You're dreaming!"

"I am now the Supreme Palace Master of the Ice Palace. Your earlier attack on the Secret Realm of the Ice Palace was a slap to my face; it cannot just pass like this..."

Before he finished speaking, Purple-Brown Bear Pi immediately lay down, admitting his mistake.

"I was wrong, it was all our fault!"

He was smart, like a chunk of indestructible rock, stubbornly not giving Brother Cheng any excuse to pick a fight.

The Bear Race also followed suit, laughing and repeatedly apologizing.

Not only did they apologize to Brother Cheng, but they also apologized to Gong Qing and the other disciples of the Ice Palace.

Even the other forty thousand members of the Demon Race were forced to admit their fault under their command.

"We were in the wrong just now, offending everyone; we hope the fairies of the Ice Palace forgive us."

"Yes, yes, from now on, we'll never dare again."

"From this day forward, we'll steer clear when we see the Ice Palace..."

The once fierce and intimidating Demon Race had become adorably silly, appearing quite amusing.

Listening to the apologies echoing across the mountains, the women of the Ice Palace felt an extreme sense of dissonance and unreality.

Although this apology seemed like a farce, almost like a joke, however...

This was the Demon Race of Mo Yuan Valley!

The most powerful force within billions of miles.

Feared by all, they had previously been a terrifying presence, mentioning which would make one's scalp tingle, making them only dare to hide.

And now, they were so docile.

Although they couldn't see how powerful Jiang Taishang was, they fully felt his great influence.

If it weren't for him, everything would have been over today.

Brother Cheng ultimately couldn't do anything to this seemingly naive yet actually cunning old Bear Pi and could only wave them off.

Purple-Brown Bear Pi, as if granted amnesty, quickly led a group of Demon Race members out like a whirlwind.

The scene that was noisy just moments ago instantly became much quieter.

Jiang Cheng turned around with a smile.

"What do you have to say now?"

The expressions of the women froze, becoming somewhat unnatural.

Not long ago, they had pointed their fingers at Brother Cheng, questioning his competence and worth.

And now, they had collectively been saved by Brother Cheng.

If it weren't for him, the Demon Race of Mo Yuan Valley wouldn't have been so adorably silly just now.

Being saved by someone they had loudly opposed was quite awkward.

"Hmm? Why is everyone silent now?"

Brother Cheng's smile widened.

"Weren't you all quite eloquent before?"

"Now you've switched to playing the silent game?"

Venerable Linjing really didn't want to give in, but ultimately squeezed out a line.

"Thanks to you today!"

Venerable Xue Yi also gritted her teeth: "We owe you a life."

"Thank you for stepping up today to save the Ice Palace."

The other women also bowed their heads.

To be able to subdue Purple-Brown Daoist Venerable, whether through power or other means, was beyond their imagination.

They had no choice but to lower their heads to someone capable of such a feat.

"I'm not asking for your thanks."

Brother Cheng helpfully reminded them of what happened not long ago, with a genial smile.

"It seems we still have a wager yet to be fulfilled?"

The Demons of Mo Yuan Valley had been lured over by Tansha Daoist Venerable, not Jiang Cheng.

Moreover, he had stepped up to save the entire Ice Palace.

So, he certainly couldn't be the traitor.

According to the previous wager, he won, and now everyone must greet him with 'Supreme Palace Master, I was wrong' whenever they meet.

The women looked at each other, do we really have to say it?

What could you possibly gain from such a small condition?

"If you have to say it, then say it, what's the big deal?"

Venerable Lanmiao giggled, blurting out: "Supreme..."

She suddenly closed her mouth because she realized Jiang Cheng's true intention behind this condition.

"We can apologize; can we leave out the title?"

Brother Cheng pouted: "Then how would I know who you're apologizing to?"

Weren't you opposing me being the Supreme Palace Master? Then from now on, I'll have you voluntarily call me Supreme Palace Master.

And moreover, every time we meet, it'll become second nature.

Over time, just like a kind of hypnosis, subconsciously you'll acknowledge that he is indeed the rightful Supreme Palace Master.

The other female immortals immediately realized this too.

"You're really shameless!"

"To use such means to make us acknowledge you."

"What a cunning mind!"

With the means Jiang Cheng used to drive away the Demon Race of Mo Yuan Valley and save the Ice Palace, he deserved any treatment.

The reason for their opposition was mainly because the Supreme Palace Master outranked Gong Qing.

In their hearts, Gong Qing's status was unparalleled, entirely idol-worthy.

Which fan would want to see their idol placed beneath someone else?

Unfortunately, their sentiment didn't seem to move the person concerned.

"The wager was vouched for by me, and you must fulfill it," Gong Qing said earnestly.
