"If Pei Xuanjing has solved this problem, it could be good news for our Demonic Way," an all-powerful demon practitioner interjected.
For demon practitioners, as long as a technique was not bound to lead to death and there was a shred of hope for survival, that was enough.
They did not expect Pei Xuanjing to fully solve the problem at hand. If Pei Xuanjing could address part of the problem, lower the death rate, or ensure that death was not certain, it would be good news for the Demonic Way.
"You have successfully cultivated this technique, you have earned a place in my esteem," said the Lion Emperor earnestly to Pei Xuanjing.
The Lion Emperor was all too familiar with this technique or, more specifically, he was intimately acquainted with the demonic practitioner who had initially created this technique. He had never thought that any human could successfully cultivate it.
"You flatter me, Lion Emperor, my success was merely a fluke," Pei Xuanjing replied dismissively.
