The first time Yang Kai heard the name Mo Sheng, he felt that it was a bit strange. The Demon Race’s name was very different from that of the Star Boundary’s Human Race, and it had a strong exotic charm. However, even if Yang Kai didn’t understand the reason behind the Demon Race’s name, he knew that Mo Sheng’s name was somewhat inappropriate.
it's similar to the Demon Saint, Yang Kai was a bit surprised that Mo Sheng was able to survive until now without being beaten to death by the other Demon Race masters. This was simply extraordinary luck.
If this was all there was to it, Yang Kai could only think of the Demon Saint, but in this situation, he couldn’t help thinking about it.
Mo Sheng, Demon Saint, and Demon God all sounded similar.
This was just a casual question, but Yang Kai also felt that he was thinking too much. Unexpectedly, Mo Sheng waved his hand and said, “Demon God or not, they were the ones who called me that. My real name is Mo Sheng.”
Yang Kai couldn’t help taking two steps back, but then he remembered that this was his own world, so he couldn’t help asking, “Are you really the Great Demon God?”
If that was the case, then everything that had happened before could be explained. It was precisely because Yang Kai felt something was wrong that he had been paying close attention to him all these years.
Mo Sheng smiled slightly but did not answer, appearing unfathomable.
Yang Kai didn’t know what kind of expression he should put on. Currently, the Demon Territory and Star World were engaged in a war, and there were countless casualties. The hatred between the Human Race and Demon Race was as deep as the sea, yet the Demon Race’s Great Demon God, who was suspected to be a legend, was standing right in front of him. Even though Yang Kai was calm and composed, he was still somewhat at a loss. What made him feel even more uncomfortable was that this scene was somewhat different from what he had imagined.
This self-proclaimed Great Demon God was not only not a ferocious and bloodthirsty man, but also a leisurely and amiable one.
“Are you really the Great Demon God?” Yang Kai asked again.
Mo Sheng hesitated for a moment before replying, “Yes and no.”
“What do you mean?” Yang Kai looked confused, but before Mo Sheng could answer, he suddenly understood, “Clone?”
If the other party was really a Great Demon God, how could he have the qualifications to speak with him? He would have been killed in the blink of an eye. Moreover, how could a mid rank Demon King be a Great Demon God?
This reminded him of his Embodiment. With an existence like his Embodiment, the Great Demon God whose cultivation was many times higher than his own, it wasn’t strange for him to have a clone.
“You can say so,” Mo Sheng didn’t try to defend himself and simply accepted Yang Kai’s words, smiling as he looked at Yang Kai, “You took my things.”
Yang Kai stuck two fingers into his eyes, “Are you referring to this?”
Mo Sheng nodded, “These eyes were originally mine.”
Yang Kai grinned, “It’s not yours, it’s the Great Demon God’s, and… it’s mine now.” Now he could finally confirm that the one in front of him was really the Great Demon God’s clone, and the one who had fought the Passing of Time Great Emperor in the Ancient Battlefield was also the Great Demon God.
Mo Sheng didn’t get angry, but after thinking about it for a moment, he said, “You’re right, what’s lost is lost.” Then he sighed, “You humans are really amazing.” It was unknown what he was thinking, but a look of reminiscence appeared on his face again.
Yang Kai didn’t care if he was a Great Demon God’s clone or not, he was only a Mid-Rank Demon King, and in his territory, he naturally had nothing to fear. Seeing that the other party was so easy to talk to, he couldn’t help asking, “I saw many things here before.”
Mo Sheng nodded, “Being able to see it is your opportunity and ability.”
“However, what happened in the end was still unclear. Can you tell me what the final result of that battle was?”
Hearing this, Mo Sheng smiled, “What else? He was beaten to death, that’s why I said your Human Race is amazing.”
He didn’t say who had been killed, but Yang Kai knew that he was talking about the Great Demon God. For a moment, Yang Kai’s heart was filled with excitement. Although he had already guessed this result, when he heard it from Mo Sheng, he still felt proud.
The person who had killed the Great Demon God was the Passing of Time Great Emperor!
“Since you died, why are you still alive?” Yang Kai frowned at him.
Since his main body had died, there was no reason for his clone to survive. If Yang Kai were to encounter some kind of accident, his Embodiment would definitely die with him.
Mo Sheng said, “Although my physical body has been destroyed, my Soul will not die! Although that Old Man POT is not bad, he is far from being able to destroy my Soul.”
Yang Kai suddenly understood. Not to mention that Great Demon God’s cultivation was extremely high, even an ordinary Emperor Realm and Demon King would be able to escape if their physical body was destroyed.
However, the tone of his voice made Yang Kai a little unhappy. His body had clearly been destroyed by PoT Great Emperor, but now that he was talking about it, it was as if he was standing at the top of the world and evaluating the battle that had taken place back then, as if PoT was not as good as him.
Mo Sheng seemed to be able to read his thoughts and said lightly, “My injuries were not healed back then, if not for this, I wouldn’t have fallen to such a state.”
Hearing this, Yang Kai’s expression became serious. Although this was the first time he had come into contact with such a person, he also knew that an expert like the Great Demon God would not bother lying. If he said that his injuries had yet to heal, it meant that they had yet to fully recover. Since his injuries had yet to heal, it was likely that he would not be able to use his full strength, but even so, he would still fight to the death with the Passing of Time Great Emperor.
And this was in a situation where his injuries had yet to fully heal. What would happen if he was at his peak?
But who could injure him?
In just a few words, Yang Kai felt as if this legendary Demon Race legend had gently pushed open a door in front of him, and beyond that door was a vast world.
Suppressing his shock, Yang Kai asked, “What is going on with these two eyes?”
Mo Sheng blinked, “I also want to know how it ended up in your hands. If it’s convenient, can you tell me?”
This answer was truly unexpected, and Yang Kai thought he really knew everything. A single question and a moment of confusion had caused him to fall from his lofty position.
You’re just so-so! Yang Kai thought to himself.
There was no need for him to hide anything, so he explained the experience of obtaining the Demon Eye of Annihilation and Black Pupil Purgatory.
Hearing this, Mo Sheng’s face lit up as if he had just heard a moving story. After finished listening to his story, he smiled and said, “So that’s how it is. From what you said, they are the same as me.”
“They?” Yang Kai frowned and asked, “You mean those two are also clones?”
Mo Sheng nodded, “Perhaps after the battle that year, my physical body collapsed and my two eyes shattered the void and disappeared to somewhere else. Later on, It gained sentience and become them.”
Yang Kai couldn’t accept this. The One Eyed Demon was one thing, in ancient times, it had wreaked havoc throughout the world and killed countless people. In the end, it was killed by many masters and the Single Eye was sealed.
However, the Great Demon God of Tongxuan Continent had done something that benefited the entire world. This was completely different from Yang Kai’s impression of the Great Demon God. Yang Kai himself had received many favors from the 'Great Demon God, allowing him to achieve his current achievements.
Mo Sheng slowly said, “We are us and the Great Demon God is the Great Demon God. This is different. If the true body was here, you wouldn’t have had the chance to speak so much.”
Hearing this, Yang Kai’s heart skipped a beat. These words reminded him of his Embodiment. He and his Embodiment were two completely separate entities. An Embodiment had its own personality and thoughts and was naturally different from him.
It was true that Yang Kai had received the favor of the Great Demon God from Tongxuan Continent, but that Great Demon God was not from the Demon Territory. It could even be said that after the battle with PoT, that Great Demon God had died.
After understanding this point, Yang Kai’s heart relaxed. After all, he had received many benefits from the other party, so if he suddenly became enemies with someone else, even if it wasn’t a problem in the perspective of the righteousness of his race, it was still somewhat unjustifiable.
Now that he had figured it out, whether he was friend or foe, he could only ask himself.
“You’ve been hiding for so many years, how could you suddenly come out at this time?” Yang Kai’s heart was filled with an indescribable joy. It was rare for him to encounter this Great Demon God’s clone, so he naturally wanted to chat with him.
He really wanted to know why Mo Sheng was hiding in the Mysterious Small World.
Mo Sheng said, “The time has come, why not come out?”
“What time?” Yang Kai asked, his heart tensing up as he considered whether or not he should take him down directly. No matter how friendly this Mo Sheng in front of him was, he was still the Great Demon God’s clone. Hiding in the Mysterious Small World meant that he had his own plans, and since they were on different paths, there would always be a life and death struggle. Rather than waiting for him to reveal his true intentions, it was better to strike first.
“Let me tell you a story,” Mo Sheng suddenly said.
Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling uncomfortable at this sudden change in mood and blinked, “Is it nice? If it’s nice, I’ll listen.”
However, Mo Sheng didn’t pay any attention to him and simply said, “There was a guy who was extremely talented and had reached the big accomplishment cultivation at such a young age. Naturally, he was arrogant when he was young and could travel the myriad worlds without fear.”
Yang Kai silently cursed in his heart, That guy is you, right? Listening to the beginning, he could almost guess the ending. He had to admit that this story was quite bad.
However, the two sentences he had just spoken had caused Yang Kai to pay close attention to them. Traveling through the great worlds, how heroic was that?
“That was a happy time,” Mo Sheng’s face showed a look of reminiscence, “Good times don’t last long, this guy met an opponent, a woman.”
Yang Kai smiled perfunctorily.
“That woman is also very powerful. That guy has never met such a woman before, and the few times they fought, neither side won or lost…”
“And then that guy fell in love with that woman?” Yang Kai looked at him disdainfully. He could easily come up with such a story of hatred turning into love.
Mo Sheng glanced at him and said, “Love isn’t important to that guy, it’s just that his opponent’s strength made him want to win.”
Yang Kai coughed lightly, feeling somewhat embarrassed that he had guessed wrong.
“The battle between the two lasted for thirty thousand years, until one day…” Mo Sheng’s brow wrinkled as a trace of murderous intent appeared on his indifferent face, causing Yang Kai to become extremely vigilant. No matter how harmless this guy appeared, he was still the Great Demon God’s clone!
