"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?"
