Free Web NovelChapter 1753: Chapter 1620: Demon Clan Army
"Humph! A bunch of outdated, cowardly wastes. What’s so great about the Human Race? Do we really need to undermine their morale through a competition and then resolve the hatred between the two races? Why not just launch a war? Can it be that our Demon Clan cannot conquer the weak-bodied Human Race?"
A burly, dark-skinned middle-aged Demon Clan strong person angrily returned to his palace, kicking the incense burner away.
"Black Flood Dragon King, rest your Thunderbolt Fury. I observe that this meeting has many who favor battle. Why not gather them together and discuss the grand plan? As for those mild ones, you don’t need to concern yourself. Once the war starts, aren’t they still going to join the fight?"
A fawning Fox Clan strategist approached the Black Flood Dragon King, offering a suggestion.
"Hmm... your words make some sense. Then you go inform those who favor battle to come to my palace and discuss the grand plan together."
The Black Flood Dragon King thought for a moment, feeling this strategy was good. Once the war started, those mild ones probably couldn’t sit still.
"I’ll do it right away!"
The Fox Clan strategist walked out of the palace, quickly notifying all the leaders who favored battle.
Upon hearing the Black Flood Dragon King wanted to unite everyone to attack the Human Race, these eager leaders of the clans who favored battle soon rode the wind to the Black Flood Dragon King’s palace.
As the leader of the Imperial Family, the Black Flood Dragon King’s palace was sheltered by a barrier beneath a large lake in this space.
With the arrival of these Imperial Family leaders who favored battle from the Demon Clan, a small meeting began. They all wanted to give the Human Race a show of force directly, so this meeting went very smoothly.
"I believe that so-called competition is completely a waste of time. Even if we want to undermine the Human Race’s morale, there’s no need for a competition; the effect of war is more apparent..."
The Black Flood Dragon King proposed that if one wants to undermine the Human Race’s morale, there’s no need for a martial competition, we can simply launch a small-scale war to see the Human cultivators’ reaction speed and actual strength.
The reason is simple: war doesn’t target the finest part of a race but entirely tests the race’s reaction capability and comprehensive prowess.
If the Human Race can’t react quickly and repel them, then the Humans would be of no concern; even if some strong people exist, how much territory can they defend?
Ten thousand years have passed. The influence left by the Nine Heavens Xuan Emperor has completely disappeared. Neither the Human Race nor the Demon Clan has strong individuals of Emperor Level, making this the best time to attack.
If the Demon Clan can capture the Human Race, the entire Human Race will become slaves of the Demon Clan, and then this world will only be ruled by the Demon Clan.
"The Black Flood Dragon King’s suggestion is excellent, I support it!"
"I support it too!"
After listening to the Black Flood Dragon King’s analysis, those aggressive leaders of the clans who favored battle suddenly had their eyes light up; this is indeed a great idea.
However—
To attack the Human Race and launch a war, first, they must tear open the seal left by the Nine Heavens Xuan Emperor. Though the seal is weak now, it’s not something the average person can tear open.
Although some parts of this seal are loosened, allowing Demon Clan strong people to go in and out, it’s still too small. Without tearing the seal open, they can’t launch a large-scale deployment of troops.
"Starting a war is easy, but how do we get the army out of the Holy Land? You must know that outside the Holy Land, there’s a hateful seal laid down by the Nine Heavens Xuan Emperor, preventing large-scale troop movement." A Demon Clan leader frowned and asked.
"I’ve thought about this matter—none of the three Saint Lords of the Demon Emperor Family want to engage in a large-scale war with the Human Race, so we can’t rely on them, only on ourselves. We’ll take out the Forbidden Artifact, activate it together, and tear open a gap at the seal’s weak point to send our warriors out. As long as they’re below Demon King level, they’ll likely not be restricted by the seal." The Black Flood Dragon King said confidently.
This idea came from his sycophantic strategist—a strong individual from the Fox Clan—and the Black Flood Dragon King deeply agreed.
He has never participated in a grand battle with the Human Race before, so his understanding of the Human Race is still in the Mystic Beast era’s understanding.
Under the same realm, the Human Race is absolutely no match for Mystic Beasts; naturally, under the same realm, the Human Race cannot be a match for the Demon Clan.
Not only him but other leaders of the Demon King Family who favored battle similarly have not experienced life-and-death battles with the Human Race, which is why they’re brimming with confidence.
Upon hearing the Black Flood Dragon King’s plan, the leaders of the Demon King Families unanimously praised it, feeling it was a good idea. At least it can bypass the people from the Demon Emperor Family to secretly confront the Human Race.
Small-scale wars won’t affect the overall situation; even if people from the Demon Emperor Family find out, they won’t say anything.
"Since everyone has no objections, we’ll start preparing separately. In seven days, we’ll make our move!"
The Black Flood Dragon King made the final decision.
...
Meanwhile...
On the edge of the Xuanshou Mountain Range, a figure appeared in the sky above the Xuan Beast Forest, shooting like a meteor, swiftly heading toward the depths of the Xuan Beast Forest.
This figure was precisely Ye Fan, who had just arrived from the Jueluo Empire Palace.
At the invitation of the Emperor Lei Xiaotian of the Jueluo Empire, Ye Fan lingered in the palace for three days and said goodbye to Emperor Lei Xiaotian early this morning, setting forth towards the Xuan Beast Forest.
Of course, what he told Emperor Lei Xiaotian was not about heading to the Xuan Beast Forest but wanting to quickly return to the Xuanwu Sect to take a look, as he had left the Xuanwu Sect for quite some time.
This is human nature, Emperor Lei Xiaotian naturally believed wholeheartedly, almost letting Ye Fan take one of his Thunder Beasts.
The Thunder Beast is a type of Flying Profound Beast, very fast, with its inherent Thunder Element, and can be said to be a perfect match for Ye Fan, yet Ye Fan still politely declined to avoid too deep a connection with the Jueluo Empire.
After all, he still doesn’t know what attitude Tong Tianhao has towards the Jueluo Empire, rashly accepting others’ gifts is never good.
The Xuan Beast Forest remains as usual, with various Mystic Beasts appearing; for ordinary cultivators, the outer area is definitely an adventurers’ paradise, but the depths are a Forbidden Land, seldom ventured into.
This only applies to ordinary cultivators, though now Ye Fan has long ceased to be any insignificant person. As a Lord Realm cultivator, walking the Xuan Beast Forest, the natural aura he exudes scares ordinary Mystic Beasts away, avoiding meeting him altogether.
These Xuan Beasts are very intelligent, having a much keener intuition about danger than humans. They know well that this young human who ventured alone into the depths of the Xuan Beast Forest is not to be trifled with.
Soon, Ye Fan ventured deep into the heart of the Xuan Beast Forest, relying on memory to find the hidden valley where the portal connecting Earth and the Xuan Realm was originally sealed.
At the moment, everything in the little valley was as usual, with a chorus of insect sounds. There were some Xuan Beasts nearby, but they were only at the early stage of the Divine realm. Upon sensing Ye Fan’s arrival, they all fled.
The spatial portal in the small valley was still well-sealed, showing no signs of loosening at all.
Seeing that the spatial portal was intact, Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief, and his admiration for Elder Xuan’s methods deepened.
"I wonder how Master and the others are doing..."
Standing in the small valley, looking at the sealed spatial portal, Ye Fan’s thoughts couldn’t help but fly back to Earth.
Recalling that day, Chu Xuanji’s lonely silhouette made his heart ache. This strong-willed old man, though reclusive, cared for him deeply. It could be said that without Chu Xuanji, he would not have achieved what he had today.
As his thoughts unfolded, one familiar figure after another appeared before his eyes. Those scenes seemed to have happened only yesterday, and he could even feel their voices and expressions.
Su Yuxin, this girl with a gentle exterior and strong will, was tied to him by a thread of affection. He wondered how she was doing now?
However, thinking of her at the Tianshan Group, with the help of his aunt, Chu Ji, she should have completely controlled the situation in dong hai, right?
And Su Liuli, this girl whose deep affection caused him heartache, blocked a fatal attack for him and vanished into smoke...
Su ****, Pan Yuming, Lv Zhan, Olivia, Wu Zi...
One familiar face after another appeared before Ye Fan’s eyes.
Finally, it settled between the tall figures of his father, Ye Wenhao, and Yan, transforming continuously until they seemed to merge into one.
"Child, remember that those who climb high must start from below, and those who journey far must start from near. In this world, what matters is not where you stand, but in which direction you are moving!"
His father Ye Wenhao’s deep voice echoed in Ye Fan’s ears.
"Father..."
Ye Fan’s eyes reddened. Alone in this unfamiliar world, he thought he could let go, but now he realized that some things could never be forgotten.
Here, Ye Fan stood for a very long time, recalling many past events and thinking about the last time he was there, feeling the excitement and disappointment of sensing his mother’s presence.
Unfortunately, he still couldn’t meet his mother, which was his greatest regret!
Thinking of his conversation with the Ling Family Ancestor, Ye Fan couldn’t help but clench his fist.
Returning to the Ling Family wasn’t impossible, but he must make those who once persecuted his mother pay the price!
Of course, he also wanted to use the Ling Family’s power to find his mother.
The stronger he became, the deeper his understanding of the Di Clan. Previously, he thought the Di Clan was just like those hidden families on Earth.
However—
As his strength and realm improved, he gradually realized that to have endured for tens of thousands of years and still stand firm, the Di Clan indeed had its formidable aspects.
After a long time, Ye Fan finally collected his feelings and quietly left the small valley, flying towards the outskirts of the Xuan Beast Forest.
It had been a long time since he left Xuanwu Sect. A lot had happened during this period, and he didn’t have the time to go back and see.
He still had some feelings for Xuanwu Sect. After all, it was the first sect he joined after coming to this world. There, he had his kind master Wu Xinhai, and his brothers Shen Tu and Zhang Taiyi, and... Tong Qianchen!
...
Shortly after Ye Fan left, in the Sacred Land at the center of the Xuanshou Mountain Range, leaders of the war faction Demon King Family, led by the Black Flood Dragon King, gathered.
This was the weakest point of the entire space seal and already had a breach allowing Demon Clan cultivators to pass through.
To send out an army, the war faction Demon King Family, led by the Black Flood Dragon King, brought Forbidden Artifacts to unleash tremendous energy with Supreme Mysterious Technique.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!!"
Seven or eight Forbidden Artifacts were activated simultaneously, concentrating power on the weakest point of the seal, directly blasting a gateway-sized hole through it.
"Swish!"
The Black Flood Dragon King and other Demon Kings cast Mystic Light, stabilizing the breach and sending out a Demon Clan army...
"Kill all humans, long live the Demon Clan!!"
Countless Demon Clan warriors shouted loudly as they charged out of the seal and into the Xuan Beast Forest!
