As if struck by a sudden nightmare, the Second Elder recoiled in horror. With a sharp gasp, he leapt backward instinctively.
"W-What the hell are you?!" the Second Elder exclaimed, his voice riddled with fear. "How are you still alive?!"
Before Yuan could even respond, the Second Elder spoke again, "It can't be! That regenerative ability! You're a demon!"
"Hahaha!"
Yuan laughed at the Second Elder's assumptions.
"Are those your last words?"
The Second Elder clenched his fists and roared, "So what if you're a demon?! You're still a mere Divine Emperor! I can crush you with a finger!"
The Second Elder raised a trembling finger at Yuan, gathering Celestial Qi with murderous intent blazing in his eyes.
But the moment the Celestial Qi began to surge through him, a searing pain erupted from deep within his body, far more intense than before.
