Chapter 1859: Professional matters should be left to professionals
The sudden sneak attack by the Demons made Yun Xian-tai, Shi Qingfeng, and the other Great Emperor ancestors grind their teeth in anger.
On the Demon side, they had finally vented their frustration, and everyone was incredibly excited.
But the happiest one was undoubtedly Boboke.
After all, it deserved the primary credit for this success, and those special Demon warriors had been trained by it personally.
At this moment, many Demons, including the Demon Gods, looked at Boboke with changed eyes.
This kind of treatment was probably the first time in its life.
It had been looked down upon since it was small, and even after breaking through to become a Demon God, it remained the same.
On the surface, perhaps no one dared to say anything, but in private, Boboke knew very well that the Demons actually looked down on it.
And this time, Boboke had proven itself.
"Roar... (Boboke, you have performed a great service this time.)"
A Demon God praised it in a low roar; this was the first time Boboke had received praise and recognition from other Demon Gods.
However, although Boboke was excited inside, it remained calm on the surface.
"Roar... (Although we won this battle, we cannot be happy too early; we still need to proceed steadily.)"
"Roar... (You are right.)"
The Demon Gods actually all agreed with Boboke's words; after all, the facts were right before them, proving that Boboke's method was useful.
Facing the Humans of the Haotu World, brute force alone definitely wouldn't work; they needed to change.
The Demons were incredibly happy, but in reality, this battle only gained them a small advantage; they didn't actually kill many Human cultivators, and the only one worth mentioning was a Great Saint Elder from the Yun Luo Holy Land.
It was completely incomparable to the Demons' own losses.
But because they had lost so much before, it could be said they were defeated repeatedly, so even gaining a small advantage this time made the Demons unable to help but be excited.
It was as if they had found a way to deal with the Humans and could use this to turn the situation around in one fell swoop.
Having tasted success, the Demons followed suit.
They planned several more sudden sneak attacks, and Boboke did indeed have some ability; the Demons it trained had truly impressive scouting capabilities.
They were almost able to accurately discover the Human ambush positions, and then the Demons would suddenly strike, gaining something every time.
Even though the Human side had been hiding cautiously, it didn't seem to be of much use against the Demons.
But they couldn't stop arranging people to monitor; if they gave up monitoring around the Demon Caves, the Demons could enter the Haotu World completely unscrupulously.
The Human race naturally couldn't allow this; otherwise, the entire situation might spiral out of control.
The transformation of the Demons had truly caught the Human race off guard.
For a time, the Human race had no way to respond.
In Lingcheng, Yun Xian-tai, Shi Qingfeng, and other Great Emperor ancestors all had their brows tightly locked.
"How many sneak attacks has this been?"
Just now, they had received news of another Demon sneak attack, and one of the ancestors asked through gritted teeth.
"The seventh time."
Yu Mo replied. In just a few days, this was already the seventh sneak attack. Although the losses weren't great, it was just infuriating.
These Demons were like turtles hiding their heads, suddenly sticking them out to take a bite out of you.
It wouldn't kill you, but it was just disgusting.
And the most critical thing was that the ingredients were running out; they were about to run out of food.
Not only were they constantly suffering losses, but they also couldn't get ingredients, which the ancestors found completely unacceptable.
Hit and run—the current Demons were wretched to the extreme, not giving the Human race any opportunity at all; the two sides didn't even have the possibility of close-quarters combat.
Hearing Yu Mo's words, the other ancestors were all gnashing their teeth in hatred.
If they had a way, they would definitely turn these Demons into dishes of fine food.
"Damn it, if only we could enter the Demon Caves, we could wipe them all out."
"You're talking nonsense; if we could enter, I wouldn't need you to tell me."
"What do we do now? Give up monitoring around the Demon Caves?"
"No, absolutely not; the area around the Demon Caves must be in our hands."
"Then what do we do?"
When it came to solutions, the ancestors fell silent; for a moment, they really didn't have any good ideas.
Just then, Ye Changqing requested an audience.
There was no other matter; it was still because of the ingredients. Now, all the ingredients were only enough for two days of consumption.
Hearing this, the ancestors were completely anxious.
"Only two days left?"
"Damn it..."
After these two days, they would run out of food. If they couldn't get Demon ingredients then, what would they do? Should they go get some Demon Beast ingredients?
Although that wasn't impossible, the same saying applied: once you're used to delicacies, who would be willing to go back to eating coarse grains?
So, whenever possible, the ancestors still wanted to get Demon ingredients.
It was just that the current Demons were too wretched and hard to deal with.
How did they suddenly become like this? They still preferred the old brute force of the Demons; the current version made people not like them at all.
Hearing the ancestors' distress, Ye Changqing spoke up.
"The reason the Demons are hard to deal with is nothing more than those scouts of theirs, right?"
"Yes, we don't know where these skinny monkeys came from; they are all very cunning, and their scouting ability is also quite good, so we have no opportunity at all."
Upon hearing this, Yu Mo agreed, saying that Ye Changqing was right.
The most critical thing now was those skinny Demon scouts; as long as they were dealt with, things would be much simpler.
But the current situation was that no matter how careful the Human side was, these skinny monkeys always managed to find some clues.
Even if they couldn't accurately determine the hiding spots of the Human cultivators, they could still lock onto the general location.
Based on this, the Demons either gave no opportunity at all, or they launched a sneak attack before you could react.
By the time the Human reinforcements arrived, they had already burrowed into the Demon Cave and disappeared without a trace.
Hearing Yu Mo's words, Ye Changqing said suspiciously.
"In that case, why don't we just improve our hiding skills?"
The Demons' scouting ability had suddenly improved by leaps and bounds as if they had taken drugs; the solution to this was simple: just improve our hiding skills.
Ye Changqing was right, and the ancestors had naturally thought of this too.
"That's true, but it's not that easy."
"Yes, we've thought of all the methods we could, but the results have been minimal."
The ancestors had expressions of 'this path is blocked,' but Ye Changqing didn't know why they hadn't thought of this point, so he immediately said.
"Actually, there are very good candidates right now; as the saying goes, professional matters should be left to professionals."
"Hmm??? Changqing kid, are you saying you have a way?"
"I do. Actually, the ancestors should have been able to think of it; isn't the solution right before our eyes?" ===== CHAPTER 1860 =====
