Best Young Master

Chapter 1755: Chapter 1622: The Demon Clan Attacks

Taking to the skies, Ye Fan felt a tinge of worry, for the direction of these powerful auras was not the Imperial City of the Jueluo Empire, but the Xuanshou Mountain Range.

"Could it be a Xuan Beast riot?"

Ye Fan employed the Chasing Star Step, swift as a shooting star, fast as lightning, in an instant he flew out of the range of the Xuanwu Mountain Range, arriving outside Xuanwu Mountain.

"Is this... the Demon Clan?"

Ye Fan’s eyes flashed like lightning, seeing from an endless distance several figures of strong people from the Demon Clan, swiftly flying in this direction, followed by a massive army of the Demon Clan.

"This is bad! The Demon Clan is planning to tear up the agreement and attack the Human Race!"

Ye Fan was shocked, this was colossal news!

The Demon Clan launched their attack silently and without warning, and the Human Race would surely suffer greatly without any defense!

Swish!

Thinking of this, Ye Fan did not hesitate, turned and flew towards the Xuanwu Mountain Range, he knew very well that the Xuanwu Sect was the Human sect closest to the Xuan Beast Forest, if the Demon Clan attacked, Xuanwu Sect would bear the brunt.

And without a doubt, the Demon Clan’s current target was Xuanwu Sect, if he hadn’t detected it early, Xuanwu Sect would’ve faced annihilation.

Because, these Demon Clan members are strong!

"Demon Clan invasion, prepare for battle quickly!"

Just entering the range of Xuanwu Mountain Range, Ye Fan shouted loudly, rolling sound waves like thunder, entering the ears of all Xuanwu Sect disciples.

"Crash!"

A Xuanwu Sect Outer Disciple was caught off guard, the wine cup in his hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

"Wh... What? Demon Clan attacking??"

"This... impossible, right??"

"How could Senior Brother Ye be lying?"

Meanwhile, other disciples of Xuanwu Sect showed confusion, obviously not realizing the gravity of the situation.

"Demon Clan attacking, Sect in danger, everyone gather immediately! Gather immediately!"

Tong Tianhao was also shocked by this sudden news, then took to the sky and issued orders.

Woosh!

In an instant, the entire Xuanwu Sect was in shock, descending into chaos.

Don’t mention a small sect like Xuanwu, even today’s Holy Land and Di Clan had not been baptized by war, not thinking the appearance of the Demon Clan could bring them any impact, once an emergency occurred, flaws quickly became apparent.

"Don’t panic, everyone, find your own masters, they will arrange the defense, three elders, quickly activate the Mountain Protection Array, we absolutely cannot let the Demon Clan break in!"

Tong Tianhao was indeed the Sect Leader, knowing well that he couldn’t panic himself at this moment, or they wouldn’t be able to resist the Demon Clan.

"All elders, each lead your disciples to form a defensive formation, let’s hold them off for a while."

"..."

With one order after another issued, the chaos within Xuanwu Sect gradually calmed down, thousands of disciples, under the leadership of their masters, took advantageous terrain and formed defensive positions.

Meanwhile, the Mountain Protection Array of Xuanwu Sect was also activated, enveloping the entire Xuanwu Sect within the array.

Until the Mountain Protection Array was operational, the disciples with lower strength felt a little more at ease.

"Ye Fan, what should we do now?" Tong Tianhao asked Ye Fan.

"Simple defense isn’t an option, from my observation, this time the Demon Clan’s large-scale invasion is incredibly strong, even the Mountain Protection Array won’t hold for long, moreover, the best defense is offense, we must hold off this wave of attack from the Demon Clan, or the ordinary people will suffer."

Ye Fan’s eyes shone with resolute light, he pondered a bit and said, "It’s clear that our Xuanwu Sect alone cannot withstand the Demon Clan’s major offensive, I suggest, we immediately send people to seek help from the Jueluo Empire and the Treasure Pavilion’s branch in Xuanwu City, we must fight the Demon Clan invasion together."

"Alright, let’s do as you say!"

Tong Tianhao was also panicked, having enjoyed peace for so long, facing sudden events, he was somewhat at a loss, although his previous series of orders were well-organized, they were limited to that.

With Ye Fan’s reminder, he suddenly realized, the Demon Clan invasion isn’t just Xuanwu Sect’s business, it’s the affair of the entire Human Race, whether it’s the Jueluo Empire or the Treasure Pavilion, they won’t stand by idly.

Unfortunately, there is no Transmission Array Platform inside Xuanwu Sect, they can only dispatch disciples skilled in flying to seek help, then Tong Tianhao said to Ye Fan, "Xiao Fan, uncle is getting on in years and isn’t familiar with commanding battles, Xuanwu Sect is entrusted to you, from now on, the entire Xuanwu Sect is under your command, including me, arrange the battle plan!"

This is Tong Tianhao’s cleverness, last time the downfall of Tianyuan Sect was due to Ye Fan’s brilliant strategy, so he feels, Ye Fan has a stunning talent for warfare, with such a person, naturally, talents must be utilized.

Especially now, it’s no longer internal human race conflict, but a war with the Demon Clan, belonging to racial conflict, naturally the capable should command.

Urgency withstanding, Ye Fan no longer shied away, immediately ascended to the position of Sect Leader, glanced at everyone, and said solemnly, "Everyone, I must share the truth, this time, we’ll face an unprecedented bloody battle, the fight will be incredibly brutal!

This battle, many of us may die!

But for the dignity and pride of the Human Race, we cannot retreat, nor do we have a way back!

To defend our homeland, we must fight to the death, make every step the Demon Clan takes cost them blood!

This is the responsibility of us as cultivators!!

Ye Fan’s words were powerful and impassioned, stirring the blood of everyone in the Xuanwu Sect, making them wish they could immediately engage in a bloody battle with the Demon Clan.

Seeing the good effect, Ye Fan nodded and continued, "The Demon Clan ripped up the agreement privately and launched a massive attack on the territory of our Human Race, which is no different from declaring war on us. As everyone knows, the Demon Clan is inhuman. Once they occupy our territory, it’s not just us who will die, but also our elders, our parents, brothers, sisters, and relatives.

Brothers, at this critical moment of life and death, do we let our defenseless relatives, who know nothing of cultivation, face the brutal Demon Clan directly?"

"No!"

Thousands of voices in the Xuanwu Sect roared in unison, as loud as the thunder.

"Damn it, even if I die, I will take one of them down with me!"

Some passionate cultivators were stirred up by Ye Fan’s words, their war intent soared, and their eyes turned red.

"He truly is a military genius!"

Wang Qingshan sighed softly. He understood that Ye Fan was mobilizing everyone in the Xuanwu Sect. At his age, passion was no longer present, but he could instantly see Ye Fan’s intentions, which he admired greatly.

After this mobilization, the combat power of the Xuanwu Sect disciples was significantly enhanced, each one seemed like a bloodthirsty wolf.

"Very well! But, we are not here to fight the Demon Clan with brute force and courage. Our task is to defend our homeland, to stop the Demon Clan from advancing any further. The enemy is many, and we are few, our strengths are worlds apart, so we cannot be rash, we must have strategy."

Seeing that everyone’s battle intent had been ignited, Ye Fan immediately laid out his battle plan, just as he said earlier, they had to use their brains against the Demon Clan and fight a war of wits.

"Three elders, you should lay another layer of defense inside the mountain gate. When the Demon Clan arrives, I will open the mountain gate and let some of the Demon Clan and Mystic Beasts in, then you quickly seal the mountain gate, we’ll concentrate our forces to take them down one part at a time."

Ye Fan spoke to Fatty Shen, Wang Qingshan, and another Supreme Elder.

This was his plan. The Demon Clan was strong, fighting head-on was not feasible. The strongest in the Xuanwu Sect were the three Supreme Elders, but they were only late-stage Divine Power Realm, while other disciples’ combat power could be almost ignored.

Thus, direct confrontation was not an option; they had to strategically eliminate the Demon Clan’s fighting force and engage in a war of attrition.

The Xuanwu Sect could afford the consumption, but the Demon Clan could not, because if they were delayed here too long, the leaders of the Jueluo Empire, Treasure Pavilion, and Spirit Manor branches would surely come, and then they would only have retreat as their option.

"Kill!"

"Flatten the Human Race, kill all humans!!"

With Ye Fan’s arrangements just complete and everyone ready for battle, the Demon Clan army also arrived at the mountain gate of the Xuanwu Sect. A dense army of the Demon Clan stretched as far as the eye could see. Besides the transformed Demon Clan, there were also numerous Xuan Beasts mixed in, with their huge roars trembling the entire Xuanwu Mountain Gate.

Some of the weaker Xuanwu Sect outer disciples trembled at their knees, intimidated by the strong momentum of the Demon Clan, frightened before even fighting.

"Roar..."

The Guardian Mountain Beast, the Mastiff Bear, also appeared. With Xuanwu Sect’s taming, the Mastiff Bear was now a tremendous help.

"Quickly remove the array, we will consider giving you a quick death, otherwise, we’ll break the array and leave none alive!"

The strongest Demon from the front of the Demon Clan army roared.

"This is equivalent to a Human Lord Realm Great Demon, extremely powerful, our Mountain Protection Array might not withstand him!"

Tong Tianhao stood beside Ye Fan, looking very worried.

"What is a Great Demon?"

Ye Fan was not very familiar with the Demon Clan’s divisions, so he asked.

"According to the texts, Great Demons are self-divided by the Demon Clan, equivalent to the Human Lord Realm powerhouses. Each realm is divided into five stars, equivalent to human early-stage, mid-stage, late-stage, peak, and extreme.""

Tong Tianhao said with worry, "This Great Demon is estimated to be at the Three-Star Level, equivalent to late-stage Lord Realm, none of us in the Xuanwu Sect can withstand him."

"A Three-Star Great Demon, huh?"

Ye Fan furrowed his brow. Even facing a Three-Star Great Demon, he could not retreat.

This battle must hold, otherwise, the Xuanwu Sect could face complete destruction!

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh..."

Ye Fan drew lines of Mystic Light with his hands, opening a gap in the Mountain Protection Array’s gate direction, he said coldly, "Come in if you dare!"

"Hmm?"

The Three-Star Great Demon was stunned seeing Ye Fan really open the Mountain Protection Array, then he laughed wildly, "Good, good, good, very well, you’re sensible, I will make it quick for you!"

The Great Demon saw that Ye Fan was just in the early Lord Realm, a whole two realms lower than him, so he didn’t take Ye Fan seriously at all. He waved his hand, and a large number of Demons and Xuan Beasts surged through the mountain gate.

"Three elders!"

Ye Fan shouted loudly, Fatty Shen and Wang Qingshan quickly took action, directly sealing the mountain gate again, blocking the Three-Star Great Demon and other demon powerhouses and Xuan Beasts outside the gate.

"Kill!"

Led by various elders, everyone in the Xuanwu Sect fought bravely, eager to be the first, recklessly charging at the demons and Xuan Beasts that had rushed in!
