Chapter 279: Chapter 198: Will the Ancestor Make a Move? (Seeking Monthly Ticket)_3

As for exactly which power it might be?

First, we’ll eliminate the martial arts forces within Chang Country one by one, then surely we can force this Qi Blood Saint of the Human Clan to make an appearance.

...

Stepping Cloud Peak.

Purple-robed Martial Saint Yan Fu looked at one piece of bad news after another, his brow deeply furrowed.

Not long ago, Demon Race forces throughout the lands suddenly launched frenzied attacks on nearby Celestial Level factions.

This was highly unusual.

Could it be retaliation for the sudden annihilation of Lion Camel Demon City?

In recent years, the Martial Alliance has been at a disadvantage and has no longer been able to effectively control the spread of the demonic calamity in the Human World. Most of the Celestial Level martial arts factions could only choose to protect themselves.

Even as the Martial Saint who represented Dao Sect in Chang Country, he could do nothing but watch as various Demon Race factions rampaged within Chang Country.

There was no other choice; although most of these Demon Race outposts lacked a Demon Saint’s presence,

He also dared not intervene rashly.

Because he had received intelligence that within the Sheep Horn Domain, some Demon Saints and even Demon Clan Great Saints were secretly active.

After all, Dao Sect had only him as a Martial Saint in Chang Country.

Once he attracted more Demon Saints, that would be even more troublesome.

That’s why he could only stay entrenched atop Stepping Cloud Peak.

In fact, the number of Martial Saints and Great Saints within the Martial Alliance was not fewer than that of the Demon Race, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to hold off the Demon Race for so many years.

The situation arose mainly because the Martial Alliance had to dispatch a significant amount of forces to suppress the Fox Demon...

And besides, the Human Clan has an overly vast population, where ninety-nine percent of humans... are ordinary people, far too vulnerable against the Demon Race, making it exceedingly difficult to protect them all.

Within such a vast Human World, the Martial Alliance simply cannot defend everywhere.

This meant that the Martial Alliance could not afford to station martial arts powerhouses to defend every locality, as that would only lead to being defeated by the Demon Race, one by one.

To reduce the difficulty of defense, the Martial Alliance of the Human Clan set up a huge Barrier Array during Ancient Times.

However, maintaining the Barrier Array exhausted a massive amount of resources from the Human Clan, to the point where it affected the resource supply of the Alliance’s various factions.

Of course, the Human Clan’s Martial Alliance did consider launching offensives against the Demon Race, to keep enemies beyond the human territories, but such peace could only be maintained for a time before the Demon Race would return in force.

Yan Fu let out a long sigh, stood up, and placed a Jade Token onto the Bronze Gate, sending the information from Chang Country over to Dao Sect.

He did this every now and then.

"I wonder when the Martial Alliance will be able to suppress that demon?"

Yan Fu muttered to himself.

If that demon couldn’t be thoroughly suppressed, it would continue to tie up a significant part of the Martial Alliance’s strength, rendering them unable to fully confront the Demon Race.

It was also for this reason that the Demon Race forces within Chang Country were so rampant, completely disregarding the Human Clan’s Martial Alliance.

"I wonder if the Qi Blood Saint will make a move?"

Yan Fu thought of another person.

It’s been several years since they appeared.

He somewhat suspected that the repeated destruction of Lion Camel Demon City might have been the work of that Qi Blood Saint.

After all, Lion Camel Demon City was guarded by a Demon Saint.

Only that Qi Blood Saint could easily annihilate Lion Camel Demon City.

...

Divine Sword Sect.

Supreme Hall.

Another Supreme Council was being held.

However, this time everyone’s faces were very solemn.

They had just received the news that Demon Race forces within the territory of Chang Country had suddenly launched violent attacks on Human Clan’s Celestial Level forces, and many Celestial Level forces had either been destroyed or scattered...

Furthermore, the Celestial Level family of Wei Family, which was close to Lion Camel Demon City, had been completely eradicated.

Would Divine Sword Sect be the next one?

"Elder Qing Song, if the Divine Sword Sect is attacked by the Demon Race, will our ancestor intervene?"

An elder couldn’t help but ask.

The others all turned their attention to this question.

In everyone’s minds, the legendary ancestor was the biggest support of Divine Sword Sect.

Elder Qing Song let out a wry smile: "I wish I knew as well."

"Elder Chai, what about your master?"

Another Supreme Elder of high seniority inquired of those present, Chai Shao.

"My master has been in closed-door cultivation for a while now."

Chai Shao shook his head as he spoke.

According to the usual pattern, it would take another two or three months before he could emerge.

"Ah, why has Elder Li entered closed-door cultivation at such a critical time?"

"Indeed, Elder Li is the only one who can contact the ancestor..."

"I think there’s no need to worry. If our Divine Sword Sect is attacked by the Demon Race, the ancestor will definitely take action. Haven’t we also faced many crises over the years which were ultimately resolved by the ancestor’s intervention?"

"That’s right, and besides, our Divine Sword Sect is covered by a Great Array. Even if the Lion Camel Demon City launches an attack, we can fend them off with the array."

The Celestial Level beings engaged in heated discussions.

.....

Outside the Divine Sword Sect.

A monkey-faced demon with wings on its back hovered in the air.

"A Great Array?"

The demon looked at the Divine Sword Sect shrouded in clouds and mist, a look of surprise on its face.

"Hou Yan, don’t you know a bit about arrays? Can’t you break it?"

Another demon emerged as if from an illusion, revealing itself—a lizard demon covered in colorful scales.

"I only know a little, and I’m not a professional Array Master."

The monkey demon shook its head.

"If that’s the case, then we must go for a frontal attack."

The lizard demon spoke in a deep voice.

"Xi Ba, do you think that Human Qi Blood Saint might be here?"

The monkey demon suddenly spoke up.

"Um..."

The lizard demon’s body trembled, "Could it really be such a coincidence?"

"Isn’t it said the Human Qi Blood Saint is also possibly skilled in arrays? If there’s no relation between this Divine Sword Sect and Dao Sect, why would there be such a strong array here?"

The monkey demon Hou Yan said, "So we should be cautious and notify Gou Ri Great Saint first."

"Right, right, caution is the best approach."

The lizard demon Xi Ba nodded repeatedly.

He knew the terror of the Human Qi Blood Saint.

For his sibling Xi Wu had fallen to that Human Qi Blood Saint.

Although both he and Hou Yan were high-ranking Demon Clan Great Saints, they were no match for the Human Qi Blood Saint.

Half a day later.

Four more powerful presences arrived at the scene.

In addition to three Great Saint Level demons, that human Demon Puppet also came.

"Array... Dao Sect, elder..."

The human Demon Puppet looked at the Great Array enveloping the entire Divine Sword Sect.

It had devoured the souls of all the Heavenly Persons from the Wei Family, a Celestial Level family of Yuanyu County, and acquired all their memories due to the nature of the demon.

Included were memories related to the Divine Sword Sect and a Dao Sect elder.

How could an original power from the Human World have ties to a Dao Sect elder?

It simply didn’t stand up to scrutiny.

"Whether the Divine Sword Sect is backed by the Human Qi Blood Saint or not, we’ll find out if we test them."

The human Demon Puppet revealed a sly expression on its face.

The next instant, an immense Devil Thought erupted from within, forming a colossal demon shadow that blotted out the sky and suddenly covered the Great Array of the Divine Sword Sect.

Feeling the presence of this terrifying demon shadow, including the top-ranking Demon Clan Great Saint Gou Ri Great Saint, everyone shuddered and looked at the Demon Envoy with deep apprehension.

Despite the alliance formed with the Fox Demon,

there was an underlying anxiety within the Demon Race.

Alas, the decision to cooperate with the Fox Demon was made by the five Supreme Saints of the Demon Race. Even a top Great Saint like Gou Ri Great Saint didn’t dare openly oppose it.
