Chapter 1263: Again, Get a Demon Emperor's Ingredient
The demons didn't pursue us; apparently they were also wary.
After confirming the demons had no intention of attacking, Yun Xiantai's first reaction was to wonder whether that demon emperor's severed arm was still there.
Hearing that, Shi Qingfeng nodded, while Dongfang Hong beside him wore a strange expression.
No, is now the time to talk about this?
The demons now apparently have begun to value Haotu Shijie; the appearance of two demon emperors set alarm bells ringing in Dongfang Hong's heart.
These two demon emperors are completely different from the previous Boshi.
Through the recent clash, Dongfang Hong, even if unwilling, had to admit he was no match for those two demon emperors.
Those two demon emperors are both very strong; as for Yun Xiantai, there's no need to say more.
If they faced off one-on-one, Yun Xiantai could barely hold out for long.
"Brother Yun Dao, now doesn't seem like the time to talk about this, but with two demon emperors, how should we respond?"
Looking anxiously at Yun Xiantai, he said, "The most critical issue now is how to deal with those two demon emperors."
Hearing that, Yun Xiantai nodded in agreement.
"What Brother Dongfang said is correct; those two demon emperors are indeed troublesome."
That's right; those are two demon emperors—how could you not take them seriously?
You really aren't treating the demon emperor as a strong opponent.
I don't know why, but hearing that, Dongfang Hong felt a sense of relief.
But before that breath could fully ease, the next second, a sentence from Yun Xiantai left Dongfang Hong dumbfounded.
All I heard was Yun Xiantai nodding while speaking with a serious expression.
"So we still need to figure out how to quickly obtain another demon emperor's flesh, so that Shi Qingfeng can break through to the Emperor Sovereign Realm as soon as possible."
Huh???
Hearing that, Dongfang Hong froze, then his scalp went numb.
I've said all this to you, and yet you're thinking about getting another demon emperor's flesh?
No, have you even been listening to me?
His eyes widened, and he muttered in disbelief.
"Brother Yun Dao, are you serious?"
"Do I look like I'm joking?"
Indeed, I'm not joking, but you're going too far—thinking of getting another demon emperor's flesh when there are already two demon emperors?
Do you think demon emperors are cabbage, something you can just grab?
Ignoring Dongfang Hong's shock, after speaking, Yun Xiantai looked at Shi Qingfeng and the others and said:
"Recently, be careful around the Demon Cave; we'll personally hold the fort. As for Shi Qingfeng, you and Ye Changqing go back first, consolidate your cultivation, and once we obtain demon emperor's flesh, proceed to attack the Emperor Sovereign Realm."
Okay.
Good.
Huh???
Seeing Yun Xiantai speak in an orderly manner, Dongfang Hong opened his mouth but soon realized he didn't know what to say.
Your words make it feel as if the demon emperor's flesh is already in hand.
You haven't even written the first stroke of the eight characters, yet you're already doing this?
As if a demon emperor would just appear for you—something with no trace—and you're already thinking about letting Shi Qingfeng start breaking through?
Not noticing Dongfang Hong's oddness, everyone nodded in agreement with Yun Xiantai's words, thinking he was right.
Next, Yun Xiantai and the others will personally garrison the Demon Cave, after all, although the demons didn't dare to chase out directly, they still need to be taken seriously.
At the five Demon Caves, a Great Emperor Ancestor must personally guard them, and Yun Xiantai and Dongfang Hong, these two Emperor Sovereigns, also remain behind.
The two of them personally garrison the Demon Cave, while on the other side, the demons have already retreated to the Demon Realm.
That demon emperor whose arm had been cut off had a dark complexion.
That battle just now was simply a huge disgrace.
They hadn't even moved against Haotu Shijie yet, and already lost an arm—just thinking about it feels suffocating.
The injury isn't serious, but the humiliation is extreme.
Returning to the main hall of Yi Qi, that demon emperor said with a dark complexion:
"I will definitely trample this Haotu Shijie flat."
"Stay calm; the situation in Haotu Shijie is unclear now, and previous intelligence is likely all wrong, so don't act rashly."
Hearing that, the other demon emperor beside him spoke up to advise:
There are serious problems with Haotu Shijie; this is also one of the things he worries about.
Moreover, speaking frankly, the information that Boshi and his team gathered is something this demon emperor now dares not believe a word of.
How much of it is true and how much false, who can say clearly?
If Haotu Shijie has more than just two Emperor Sovereigns, then if they act rashly they'll likely suffer a major loss.
After all, the information Yi Qi received was that Haotu Shijie had no Emperor Sovereign holding down the fort.
But now, it's not lacking—they've suddenly produced two Emperor Sovereigns.
If there are still more hidden, wouldn't that mean suffering a major loss?
So this demon emperor still intends to first clarify the situation before making the next plan.
Regarding this, that demon emperor with a dark complexion didn't object; he also feels great apprehension toward Haotu Shijie now.
No longer underestimating it, the demons have suffered too many losses at Haotu Shijie.
"Then send people to Haotu Shijie to investigate and clarify its situation."
Okay, but who should we send?
Send those Demon Race under your command over; figure out how to get them into the Haotu Shijie.
Sending the Demon Race into the Haotu Shijie to scout would be too conspicuous; they'd likely be surrounded and killed as soon as they leave the Demon Cave.
So we definitely can't send the Demon Race over.
However, the Demon Race has fought across the heavens for many years, conquering many worlds and destroying many clans.
Among them, naturally there are other races that have surrendered and joined.
Right now, one of the Demon Emperors has a unit of Demon Race troops under his command.
That Demon Race unit surrendered to him when he previously destroyed a world.
After that, they have continued to serve under that Demon Emperor.
Although they are not Demon Race, they have fought alongside the Demon Race many times and are trustworthy.
Since sending the Demon Race to the Haotu Shijie would be too conspicuous, let's send these Demon Race over.
Figure out how to send them into the Haotu Shijie, infiltrate and scout the situation there.
Compared to the Demon Race, the Demon Race is obviously easier to hide.
Hearing that, that Demon Emperor thought for a moment and nodded.
Okay, I'll have them sent over right away.
Alright, when the time comes, arrange my Demon Race warriors to feign an attack, taking advantage of the chaos to let them mix into the Haotu Shijie.
Good.
After the decision, the two Yao Emperors quickly took action, and that Demon Race unit was quickly summoned here to the Demon Cave.
Still unaware of the Demon Race's plan, at this moment the five Demon Caves and Yun Xiantai have already arranged their guards.
And he and Dongfang Hong are responsible for overseeing the overall situation.
The defenses of the five Demon Caves have been perfected; each Demon Cave has a Great Emperor Ancestor personally overseeing it, and the defensive forces are much stronger and more stable than before.
As for Ye Zhangqing, he returned to the Dao Yi Shengdi with Shi Qingfeng, carrying that Demon Emperor's severed limb.
They plan to first use that severed arm to help Shi Qingfeng adjust his condition, preparing for a breakthrough into the Emperor Sovereign Realm.
As for using the Demon Emperor as ingredients, that's up to Yun Xiantai's handling; Ye Zhangqing's Cultivation: Great Saint can't really help much.
