Chapter 178: Agree to Break the Formation

As the leader of the Ten Great Demon Marshals, Bai Ze had long seen the problems of the demon court.

After the witch-demon war, the primordial demon court fell; in fact, the demon race's fortune had already been severed.

However, Bai Ze knows that many demons are still immersed in the beautiful dream of the demon race leading all races, unable to extricate themselves, and unwilling to wake.

However, these are not the main problem.

Bai Ze discovered that the demon court's biggest problem now actually lies with the demon master Kunpeng!

This legendary demon master seems indifferent to the demon court's future; he appears to have his own agenda.

So, when Tai Bai Jinxing unexpectedly sought her out, Bai Ze decisively made her choice: she would no longer play along with you.

Indeed, Bai Ze prepares to accept Tai Bai Jinxing's amnesty and enter the Heavenly Court.

However, before that, Bai Ze needs a token of allegiance.

And this token of allegiance is none other than the myriad demons of the demon court.

After all, the Heavenly Court is currently short-handed, lacking usable personnel.

If Bai Ze can bring a group of demon immortals into the Heavenly Court, she will surely receive great importance.

All of this is Tai Bai Jinxing's promise to her.

Thus, Bai Ze ultimately chose to act within the Zhou Tian Star Dou Grand Formation, in one move bundling up most of the demon court as her token of surrender to the Heavenly Court.

Although doing so is somewhat underhanded, Bai Ze, being a clever demon, is unwilling to nurture a demon court whose fortune has long been severed, allowing it to continue declining.

……

"Cihang Senior Sister, you mean the demon court is preparing to set up a formation to invite the disciples of the Chan School to break it?"

Taiyi Zhenren, upon hearing Cihang Daoist's words, sobered up instantly.

"No way, no way! The demon race is innately deceitful; there must be a trap in here!"

"Indeed, it's very likely there is a trap here!"

Cihang Daoist nodded and said: "However, this time our mission is to probe the demon court, so even if this formation has traps, I am prepared to give it a try!"

"Senior Sister, why won't you listen to advice?"

Taiyi Zhenren spoke with a bitter smile, and while speaking, turned his head to look at Shen Gongbao beside him.

"Junior Brother, you also persuade Senior Sister."

"I, I think Senior Sister's decision is correct!"

Shen Gongbao said: "We, we cannot let the Chan School's reputation fall."

"Reputation can't be eaten as rice!"

Taiyi Zhenren looked helpless, then turned his gaze to Ao Yifan.

"Fellow Daoist, you also say something."

"I think, with Cihang Daoist present, there definitely won't be any problems!"

Ao Yifan said with a confident expression.

Upon hearing Ao Yifan's words, Cihang Daoist couldn't help but frown.

Over these years, she had long summarized a rule: whenever Ao Yifan agrees with something, she must be extra careful, extra careful, extra careful!

Taiyi Zhenren said the demon race is deceitful; in fact, Cihang Daoist thinks it's just that.

What Cihang Daoist truly worries about is still Ao Yifan's side.

After all, it seems that every time they meet, she is the one who suffers a loss.

"This time, what is he scheming again?"

Cihang Daoist secretly thought: "He agrees to break the formation; should I withdraw now?"

However, although she thought that, she had already agreed to break the formation; how could she possibly withdraw now?

"Breaking formations? That's what our Biyou Gate people excel at; it counts as one of our specialties!"

Just then, several figures walked in, the leader being the graceful and elegant Yunxiao Fairy.

Yunxiao Fairy came this time precisely for an opportunity.

Therefore, no matter what the Chan School side does, they will follow along, not giving the Chan School side a chance to monopolize the benefits.

Hearing this, Cihang Daoist couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

She was a bit confused about what scheme this Yunxiao Fairy had in mind.

"The Three Teachings share the same origin; if we can obtain the assistance of the Biyou Gate people in breaking the formation this time, that would naturally be excellent."

Cihang Daoist said with a smile, thereby agreeing to join forces with Yunxiao Fairy and the others.

In fact, Cihang Daoist is also quite willing to have Yunxiao Fairy involved.

After all, with Yunxiao Fairy and her two companions joining, no matter what Ao Yifan is scheming, there will be someone to help her share the pressure when the time comes.

"Uncle Master, does this matter need further discussion?"

Wen Zhong, upon hearing that Yunxiao Fairy and her two companions were preparing to break the formation together, couldn't help but remind: "That demon court surely has a conspiracy; we must not be careless!"

"Wen Zhong, my junior nephew, are you instructing me on what to do?"

Yunxiao Fairy narrowed her eyes slightly.

"This..."

In an instant, Wen Zhong felt immense pressure.

"This Wen Zhong is doomed!"

Beside her, Qiongxiao Fairy said with a gleeful expression: "What Elder Sister hates most is others pointing fingers at her decisions; this time, at least she'll be remembered for ten thousand years!"

Upon hearing this, Wen Zhong's expression stiffened slightly; in an instant, he seemed to recall the instructions of his master, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother.

That is, within the Sect of the Cutting Edge, one would rather offend the sect's founder, the Tongtian Cult Master, than offend this Yunxiao Fairy.

Because she is notorious throughout the Sect of the Cutting Edge for being petty.

Once, Zhao Gongming inadvertently offended Yunxiao Xianzi.

I originally thought that after several thousand years, the matter was long over.

But I never expected that after several thousand years, Yunxiao Xianzi would grow angrier the more she thought about it; finally, on a dark, windy night, she joined forces with her two sisters, set up the Yellow River Great Array at Zhao Gongming's doorstep, and gave him a sound thrashing.

"I will be held a grudge for ten thousand years; this time, I'm done for!"

Wen Zhong thought to himself.

However, he never even considered whether he could live that long.

…

"This formation, husband, is exactly as you expected!"

Looking at the formation set up by the opposing monster clan, Jiang Wanghou sent a mental message to Ao Yifan: "This is indeed the Heavenly Stars Great Array, and moreover, it is the portion of the array diagram mastered by my elder sister Xi He!"

"Solar Star Lord, Xi He? However, this matter is not hard to guess; over all these years, the Monster Court can only bring out the Heavenly Stars Great Array, and daring to invite disciples of the Expounding Teaching to break the formation, this is the only possibility."

Ao Yifan thought to himself, then immediately lifted his head to glance at the sun in the sky.

In an instant, he seemed to understand something.

"Now I see, I understand; it seems there are also Heavenly Court matters involved."

Ao Yifan said with a smile.

"Husband, do you mean that the Monster Court has already joined forces with the Heavenly Court?"

Jiang Wanghou exclaimed in shock.

"Joined forces? The Monster Court as it stands now doesn't have the qualifications for that!"

Ao Yifan shook his head and said: "However, I can be certain that the Heavenly Court necessarily used the portion of the Heavenly Stars Great Array diagram mastered by Xi He to make some deal with the Monster Court; I just don't know whether the entire Monster Court participated, or only a part of it did."

"Then what should we do now?"

Jiang Wanghou said worriedly: "My elder sister Xi He guarded this array diagram closely back then; I never had a chance to access it. If we really get caught up in it, I won't be able to help my husband much."
