Chapter 890: Chapter 606: Requesting the Help of the Palace Lord to Annihilate Ten Thousand Demon Hall!
"Reporting to my lord, the surprise attack has failed. They reacted prematurely. I detected the presence of Unity Realm Stage backing them underwater. Should we continue the pursuit?"
Suddenly, the voice of a Demon-suppressing Stone resounded in Shen Yi’s mind.
He had anticipated this situation and did not hesitate much before issuing the order to retreat.
Without the intervention of several hall masters, the strength of the Ten Thousand Demon Hall was not as potent as others imagined.
In truth, this group of Great Demon Suppressing Stones, led by the Cold Mountain Ancestor, were the same demons that the Western Dragon Palace had easily chased away before.
Their effectiveness now was due to two factors: the element of surprise and the sudden, fearless cooperation among numerous Great Demons, coupled with the Ten Thousand Demon Hall ensuring their ability to communicate instantly; under such circumstances, any force would find them quite troublesome.
However, this tactic could only be used once. Once the enemy reacted, by deploying several Heaven Realm fighters to set up an ambush, they would swiftly annihilate this group of Suppressing Stones.
At present, the Southern Hong Seven Sects had little support in the west. After Zi Xian fell out of favor, only Banshan Sect and Wanxiang Pavilion remained. Shen Yi was reluctant to send this batch of Suppressing Stones to their deaths, as he still needed them as his eyes and ears.
"Whoosh."
Shen Yi exhaled softly. From this attack effort, he had grasped the solid foundation of the Western Dragon Palace.
Led by four Great Demons of White Jade Capital and supported by twenty Late-stage Reversion demons as officers, they formed a squad.
What did that imply?
Each squad was equivalent to any of the Southern Hong Seven Sects’ full strength when maintaining basic sect operations.
Even if Suppressing Stones of the Unity Realm Stage took action, to silently eliminate them all without leaking any information would require the collaborated scheming of two or three individuals.
Such squads, the Western Dragon Palace had sent out at least eight in one go to guard all the major routes.
Truly a windfall.
Shen Yi reached out a finger, tapping slowly on the armrest.
Eliminating each squad meant millions of years of Demon Lifespan added to his account. It was a pity that the two Dragon Sons had rushed to their deaths and disturbed the Dragon Palace, otherwise one more squad would not have escaped.
Beyond these elite and strong forces, he didn’t even count the ordinary soldiers of the Late-stage Reversion and Divinity Transformation Realm, many Suppressing Stones he casually dealt with in passing.
If he was defending during his time in Southern Hong, now in Western Hong, it was purely a hunt.
Shen Yi was not very skilled at this sort of thing.
Fortunately, the Southern Dragon Palace had set an example beforehand.
After removing the eyes and ears of the Western Dragon Palace, he then had more room to maneuver.
"Your mood seems much improved?" Ji Jingxi had grown somewhat unable to understand the young man before her. Compared to the sense of security that Senior Brother Qin provided, this new Sect Master of Nanyang was the exact opposite, appearing enigmatic and unpredictable, always keeping one on edge...yet nothing ever went wrong.
"It’s okay."
Shen Yi hid the smile in his eyes. What had troubled him the most was the need to gather at least two more Hong’s worth of immortal power, roughly twenty million years of Demon Lifespan, to forge the Demon Emperor Seal.
He hadn’t expected to have already gathered over half of it just since coming here.
[Remaining Demon Lifespan: Thirteen million six hundred and forty thousand years]
"What do I need to do now?" Ji Jingxi shook her head, probably understanding the feelings of those two seniors; the more she thought about it, the messier it became. She decided it was better to just not think about it.
"Continue to keep in touch with the Yushan Dragon Consort. If she encounters any danger, she can remind me using the Dao Plate."
Previously, having visited Northern Hong with the Golden Body Dharma Identity, Shen Yi was well aware of the terrifying power of the Infinite Dao Emperor Sect and Northern Dragon Palace. Dragon Consort Zi Xian, being his and East Dragon Palace’s sole link, keeping her safe was certainly the best outcome.
"..."
Upon hearing this, a strange glimmer passed through Ji Jingxi’s moist eyes.
She remembered Zi Xian often saying "that boy," not knowing that their places with Shen Yi had long been switched. Shen Yi no longer needed Zi Xian’s protection; on the contrary, he was now capable of looking after the Dragon Maiden.
What Ji Jingxi found most absurd was that this was not due to Zi Xian’s arrogance; if she were in Zi Xian’s place, she probably would think the same.
One could only blame Shen Yi for advancing too rapidly!
Such an astonishing rate of progress was not something the Mortal Realm should have.
"I understand."
Ji Jingxi nodded. "Senior Brother Ye and Senior Brother Qi are ready, awaiting your commands..."
Her words were not complete when her expression subtly changed, and she looked towards the exterior of Banshan Sect.
Simultaneously, Huang Wenfa and Yan Chongzhang also abruptly stood up, their expressions grave as they said, "Someone from the Dragon Palace has come again."
It was noteworthy that the grandson of the Western Dragon Palace had just died in Banshan Sect; the blood scent might not have even dissipated yet.
"Go ahead first."
Shen Yi signaled with his eyes and stood up, also curious.
It shouldn’t be. Although he was not very familiar with the Western Dragon Palace, any rational force would not continue to harbor the unrealistic hope of monitoring Western Hong in this situation.
Ji Jingxi transformed into moonlight and disappeared inside the Banshan Treasure Land.
Huang Wenfa straightened his garments and looked at Shen Yi again. After receiving an affirming reply, he then opened the Great Formation with a wave of his sleeve.
"I, on behalf of the Dragon Palace Imperial Edict, respectfully request an audience with the Master of Banshan Sect."
Compared to earlier visitor Qi Jiu, this time the Aquatic Race officers numbered only seven or eight, and their realms were barely at the Late-stage Reversion level.
