Ira looked around once again, only to gasp in shock when she saw the people around her.
“T-These people are all Demonic Cultivators! Are they all demons like me?” she exclaimed when she realized that the people there were all Demonic Cultivators like herself.
“That's right. These people are all Demonic Cultivators. You can now live here just like them.”
Ira was utterly confused at that point.
One of the Demonic Cultivators, who was standing next to Ira, said, “Abbot Infinides is our savior. He's the one who brought every single one of us Demonic Cultivators here. This secret realm belongs to Pentagon Monastery. Abbot Infinides has allowed us to stay here. Abbot Infinides is a good man, so you have no reason to be afraid. He won't hurt us.”
Ira stared at Infinides with shock written all over her face. She had heard rumors about how much Infinides hated Demonic Cultivators to the bone and how he hunted them down everywhere.
As it turned out, Infinides was actually saving those Demonic Cultivators.
However, Ira couldn't understand why he would want to do so.
As though he could read Ira's mind, Infinides flashed her a smile and said, “It doesn't matter if you're from the human race, demon race, or the beast race. I believe everybody is equal, but the Celestial Battle caused the demon race to be hunted down by everyone. All forms of life should coexist peacefully, not kill one another. I want to protect the balance and harmony of the three races, but this is all I can do on my own. I wonder when the three races will be able to truly live peacefully among one another...”
Infinides gazed at the sky above, making him appear a lot older.
All of a sudden, Ira found herself at a loss for words. She was so stunned that she couldn't even bring herself to thank him.
