When Jin Daowen and others arrived at the Demon Clan's headquarters responsible for the Hunting Ground, Ao Juli's heart was in turmoil.
Ever since the Returning to Void Hunting Ground under his command had been thrown into chaos by two Spiritual Beasts, Ao Juli had been the laughingstock at every meeting, perched on a low stool in the farthest corner.
Ignored when there was work to be done but scolded otherwise, Ao Juli had had enough of this life.
In the Demon Clan, face and power were paramount, even more crucial than life itself.
In terms of power, Ao Juli was only mediocre among the Heavenly Immortal Demon Kings, and his face had long been lost while sitting on that low stool during meetings.
So when the Elders of the Four Peaks arrived with a horde of Immortals for an assault, Ao Juli promptly surrendered, even capturing a Heavenly Immortal from the Demon Clan whom he could defeat and presenting him as his pledge of fealty.
