All the Putuo Temple disciples were already fantasizing about the scene of eating; just thinking of the food Ye Changqing made, each of them couldn't help but drool.

Make sure it's one line.

Some were even praising the abbot's wisdom; if the abbot hadn't volunteered to take charge of Yuan Mountain for the upper sect, they wouldn't have had the chance to meet Ye Changqing so soon.

Anyway, all the Putuo Temple people were extremely excited.

At the very moment the Putuo Temple arrived at Yuan Mountain, inside Yuan Mountain, the Demon Race's strategist, the Yuan Zhi Demon King, was asking his subordinates.

At the very moment the Putuo Temple arrived at Yuan Mountain, inside Yuan Mountain, the Demon Race's strategist, the Yuan Zhi Demon King, was currently asking his subordinates.

What about the Dao Yi Sect people?

At their speed, they'll probably need another two days to arrive.

Still two days?

Hearing this, Yuan Zhi murmured softly.

The Tiger Clan had already moved against the Luo Xia Sect; after a few tentative clashes, it turned out to be no major harm.

Better: "The Tiger Clan had already launched an attack on the Luo Xia Sect; after a few probing skirmishes, it turned out to be no great harm."

We'll produce: "The Tiger Clan had already launched an attack on the Luo Xia Sect; after a few probing skirmishes, it turned out to be no great harm."

However, according to the earlier agreement with the Hegemon Tiger Clan Chief, Yuan Mountain must not only help the Tiger Clan destroy the Luo Xia Sect, but also kill the disciples of Divine Sword Peak and Jade Maiden Peak, and rescue the White Tiger Demon King.

Yuan Zhi also agreed to this.

It is nothing like that fool Zhi Hu; although Zhi Hu is touted as the Tiger Clan's strategist, Yuan Zhi has always looked down on him—he has only a little cleverness, not much.

Unlike him, after agreeing to the Hegemon Tiger Clan Chief, Yuan Zhi began gathering intelligence on Divine Sword Peak and Jade Maiden Peak, especially concerning Hong Zun and his companions.

As the humans say, this is 'plan before acting'; knowing yourself and the enemy ensures victory in every battle.

After an investigation, Yuan Zhi ultimately concluded that they are a group with no scruples, employing despicable tactics.

The Tiger Clan probably was misled by the reputation of the Dao Yi Sect's righteous leader; who would have thought that the peak master of Dongzhou's foremost sect would have such a corrupt heart?

Playing dirty with Hong Zun and his companions is obviously not a wise decision.

So Yuan Zhi doesn't play those fancy tricks.

Anyway, Divine Sword Peak and Jade Maiden Peak are now far from the Dao Yi Sect; even if their tactics are filthy, they're just a few tens of thousands of people, while Yuan Mountain has countless demon beasts and demon kings—we can simply steamroll over them.

The only thing to watch out for is a matter of timing.

And right now, the arrival of the Putuo Temple is clearly an opportunity.

I will seize the moment when Hong Zun and his companions have not yet secured their foothold and crush them in one fell swoop.

He said this coldly, then Yuan Zhi rose and went to find the Yuan Clan Chief, Yuan Mo.

In Yuan Mo's Dong Fu, all the Yuan Mountain demon kings were present, numbering over thirty; this strength is not much weaker than that of the Dao Yi Sect.

Seeing Yuan Zhi approach, Yuan Mo opened his mouth to ask.

How is it?

Everything is according to plan; as long as we first take down the Putuo Temple, we can lure Hong Zun and his companions into a trap.

Hmm, but be careful; the Water Clan and Tiger Clan have suffered heavy losses at the hands of Hong Zun and his companions, so remember not to be careless.

Yuan Mo is still very cautious, after all, Hong Zun and his companions' battle record lies before us.

Whether in the previous great war of the two clans or earlier at Huling, Hong Zun and his companions were present, and they were crucial, directly affecting the entire situation.

Facing Yuan Mo's reminder, Yuan Zhi replied full of confidence.

Just some petty underhanded tricks; in my view, both the Water Clan and the Tiger Clan are simply seeking their own death, giving themselves the opportunity.

This time, my Yuan Clan won't make that mistake again; we'll crush them in one go.

This is also what Yuan Zhi summed up.

When facing Hong Zun and his companions, you can't take it slow, or you'll easily be killed by their underhanded tactics, especially their endless variety of dirty moves that leave demons defenseless.

So, give them no chance, kill them in one strike—that is Yuan Zhi's idea.

No matter how dirty they are, what can they do before absolute strength?

And Yuan Zhi's plan is also simple: first strike at the Putuo Temple; just a single Putuo Temple, and not even sending out all its forces, it is naturally no match for Yuan Mountain.

For Yuan Zhi to defeat this bunch of bald donkeys is not a difficult task.

And once the Putuo Temple is defeated and flees, where will their first reaction be to go?

They will surely meet up with the nearest Hong Zun and his companions; by then Yuan Zhi will have prepared in advance, mustered the full strength of Yuan Mountain, and seized them in one fell swoop to decide the fate of the world.

He won't be like Long Batian and Ba Hu, those two idiots, giving Hong Zun and his companions countless chances to escape death.

Even, Yuan Zhi had already planned the meeting point of the two sides: it's the transverse valley not far from Yuan Mountain.

This place is an ideal ambush site; then, as long as we block Hong Zun and his companions in the valley, none of them can escape.

Hearing Yuan Zhi's words, Yuan Mo nodded; it was very detailed, with no omissions, and feasible.

Entrusting the entire plan to Yuan Zhi, Yuan Mo trusts him greatly; previously, Yuan Zhi has never disappointed him.

The Putuo Temple, still unaware that Yuan Mountain had set its sights on them, was just preparing to rest.

But not long after nightfall, suddenly, terrifying beast roars echoed from all around, and waves of dreadful aura surged in quickly.

Jue Xin and the other holy ones sensed it immediately, and at once ordered the disciples to prepare to meet the enemy.

But when everyone saw the invading demon beasts, they all froze.

This... this number is just too great, isn't it?

Yuan Mountain is really going all out.

No one expected Yuan Mountain's reaction to be this huge; they had merely come to monitor Yuan Mountain, and hadn't even entered its territory.

But that very night, these Yuan Mountain demon beasts came straight to their door, and the number clearly shows they intended to wipe them out completely.

Looking at the leading Yuan Zhi and several demon kings, Jue Xin's face darkened as he said.

You Yuan Mountain...

Cut the nonsense, kill.

But Yuan Zhi paid no heed, and came straight in killing.

Seeing this, Jue Xin calmly issued the retreat order; with such a disparity in strength, they certainly couldn't fight.

Lead the disciples onward, to meet up with Hong Zun and the others.

Juexin and the Saints stayed behind to block the numerous demon beasts, while simultaneously sending a sound transmission to all the Grand Elders, ordering them to lead the disciples to retreat first.

Upon hearing this, those Elders did not hesitate either, and immediately carried out Juexin's orders.

In no time, the battle erupted; although Juexin and the others were Saints, they still quickly fell into a disadvantage under the siege of countless demon beasts and the many Demon Kings.

Fortunately, most of the disciples had retreated safely; sensing that the disciples had completely withdrawn, Juexin and the others then chose to withdraw.

After a bout of entanglement, Juexin and the others successfully broke free from the battle and rushed off into the distance without looking back.

Seeing this, the Demon Kings, including Yuan Zhi, who had just been full of killing intent, all stopped and did not choose to pursue.

Everything was proceeding according to plan; whether it was the numerous disciples or Juexin and his group, the direction of their escape was the Transverse Mountain Range.

And according to Yuan Zhi's plan, the meeting point of the two sides was precisely the Transverse Mountain Range.

As for the vicinity of the Transverse Mountain Range at this time, Yuan Zhi had already made arrangements; all that remained was for Hong Zun and the others to enter, after which this place would become their burial ground.

"Hong Zun, you didn't expect this, did you? The Transverse Mountain Range is your final resting place."
