Chapter 2424

Besides, who knew how long it would take to rescue Ye Changqing this time? No one could be certain about that.

Therefore, taking Dongfang Hong away and leaving the others of the Dongfang family behind was the best choice.

Yun Xiantai nodded in agreement.

With the matter of Dongfang Hong settled, the subsequent personnel selection was simple.

Each race and sect would send one Great Emperor ancestor, which already made up dozens of people, followed by people like Hong Zun, Wu Shou, Qingshi, and some Great Saint Realm powerhouses.

The total number was around five hundred, which was enough.

As for Qi Xiong, Holy Lord Yunluo, and Holy Lord Yaochi, they would stay behind to guard the Haotu World.

Although Qi Xiong also wanted to go along, he knew the importance of the situation.

Someone had to stay behind to guard the Haotu World.

The personnel selection was quickly finalized, but the next thing was the most troublesome: the Demon Race.

With so many powerhouses being pulled away at once, the Haotu World clearly no longer had the ability to contend with the Demon Race.

How to guard against the Demon Race at this time was the most critical issue.

Everyone thought of many methods, but in the end, they all felt they were unfeasible.

The gap in strength was too great; losing almost half of their top combat power at once could not be compensated for by just thinking of a few methods.

By then, the Demon Race would only need one attack, and the Haotu World side probably wouldn't be able to stop it.

For a time, they were at a loss, and in the end, Yun Xiantai gritted his teeth and said.

"Destroy all the demon caves."

"Destroy the demon caves? But we have already spent so many resources on them before."

Previously, it was the Demon Race that wanted to destroy the demon caves, and it was the Haotu World side that spent numerous resources to stabilize them.

Later, they even had Dongfang Hong forcibly open one of the demon caves, which also cost a lot of resources.

But now, they want to destroy them just like that?

Hearing this, everyone was stunned; so many resources spent were like throwing money into the water.

To this, Yun Xiantai still gritted his teeth and said.

"If resources are gone, they're gone; we'll find a way later."

If they don't destroy the demon caves, the Haotu World won't be able to stop the Demon Race's attack; there's no doubt about that.

Therefore, right now, the best method they could think of was to destroy these five demon caves.

Under Yun Xiantai's insistence, everyone could only nod and agree.

Although they were very reluctant, there was no other way.

After the personnel and the Demon Race matters were settled, everyone began to act separately, and Yun Xiantai also found Dongfang Hong to tell him that he hoped he would accompany him to rescue Ye Changqing.

Although Yun Xiantai said he hoped Dongfang Hong could lend him a hand.

"Brother Dongfang, I don't know the heavens and myriad worlds, so I really need your help this time."

Hearing this, Dongfang Hong looked at Yun Xiantai with deep eyes.

He wasn't a fool; naturally, he knew the meaning behind Yun Xiantai's words.

He was being guarded against, which Dongfang Hong could understand.

Moreover, since Yun Xiantai had already decided to destroy the demon caves, Dongfang Hong didn't worry about the safety of the others in the Dongfang family.

Therefore, after thinking about it, Dongfang Hong nodded and said.

"Fine, I'll go with you."

"Many thanks, Brother Dongfang."

The Haotu World side was actively preparing, and the subsequent matters would wait for Shi Qingfeng and Wu Xiulan to come out of seclusion; by then, all the affairs of the Haotu World would be handed over to the two of them to be fully responsible for.

Moreover, Yun Xiantai also left a recording stone for the two, which recorded Yun Xiantai's numerous instructions, as well as the cause and effect of the matter.

On the other side, in the endless starry sky of the heavens and myriad worlds, a starship drifted aimlessly through the sky.

This starship was precisely the group of star bandits that had attacked the Haotu World earlier.

After a few days of recuperation, Ye Changqing also woke up from his coma.

Looking at the cage he was in, Ye Changqing sighed silently.

He had been too careless; he always felt that nothing would happen, so he relaxed his vigilance.

And now he had become a prisoner, and he didn't even know where this place was.

However, the most important thing to consider right now was how to save himself.

Just as Ye Changqing was thinking, a star bandit walked into the cell with big strides and said coldly.

"The boss wants to see you; come with us."

After speaking, he pulled Ye Changqing up without giving him a choice; his cultivation had long been sealed, so Ye Changqing could only let himself be manipulated.

Being led all the way to the cabin, he met the one-eyed brute here.

And the one-eyed brute was also looking at Ye Changqing at this time, grinning.

"My name is Viper; I don't think I need to say who I am, right?"

A smile appeared on his face, which not only didn't change Viper's aura, but the scar on his face, because of this smile, made him look even more ferocious, like a venomous snake.

"Ye Changqing."

Ye Changqing also said his name in a deep voice. Hearing this, Viper's smile didn't fade as he said.

"I only brought you here because I have a question in my heart: what is your status in that enclosed world? How could you make everyone so nervous about you?"

This question had troubled Viper for a long time; he couldn't understand why those people in the Haotu World valued Ye Changqing so much.

If it were just one or two, or even a portion of the people, Viper could understand.

But the fact that everyone was in danger because of Ye Changqing and showed such a nervous state was a bit wrong.

Everyone, just because of one person, was like this; what exactly is this kid's status?

Curious in his heart, he had someone bring Ye Changqing over to ask him.

Facing Viper's confusion, Ye Changqing said with a calm face.

"Do you really want to know?"

He already had some ideas in his mind; although he couldn't guarantee he could escape, self-preservation shouldn't be a problem as long as he operated correctly.
