Chapter 723: with translation of chapter title

I can't even read Qi Xiong's expression anymore; those bastards have teamed up with the Demon Race to come attack your Dao Yi Sect, and you're still laughing about what?

Named entities: Qi Xiong, Demon Race, Dao Yi Sect. Also maybe 'someone' is generic. So we have Qi Xiong, Demon Race, Dao Yi Sect.

Everything we're saying about the Upper Sect is true; not a word of it is false.

Named entities: Upper Sect. Also 'we' is generic.

Maybe they were worried Qi Xiong wouldn't believe them, so a few people reminded him again that this matter couldn't be taken lightly.

Named entities: Qi Xiong. Others are generic.

Hearing this, Qi Xiong finally restrained his smile, though the excitement in his eyes remained hard to hide; he gave a light cough and spoke to the few.

Named entities: Qi Xiong.

I already know about this; I'll discuss it later with my Martial Uncle and the others. It's late, so you should head back now—we can talk about anything else tomorrow.

Named entities: Martial Uncle. Also 'you all' is generic.

This...

No named entities.

Damn, how can you be completely unconcerned about such a big matter?

No named entities.

You should know that when they heard the Qingtian Holy Lord say that, their hearts were shaken.

Named entities: Qingtian Holy Lord. Also 'they' is generic.

Qi Xiong had no intention of saying more; although the few were worried, after hesitating they all bowed and left.

Named entities: Qi Xiong.

Perhaps this is just a facade of the Upper Sect; in reality, they still need to confer with the many strong cultivators of the Dao Yi Sect on how to respond.

Named entities: Upper Sect, Dao Yi Sect. Also 'many strong cultivators' is generic.

They still aren't trusted enough, after all they just defected; how could they be fully trusted so quickly?

No named entities.

Thinking that, for some reason, several people suddenly felt they must strive to earn the Upper Sect's trust in the future—this is absurd.

Named entities: Upper Sect.

However, Qi Xiong was clearly different from what they imagined; after seeing them off, he light-footedly went to the rear courtyard.

Named entities: Qi Xiong. Also 'rear courtyard' is generic.

Although it was late at night, it seemed nobody had gone to sleep yet; even Ye Zhangqing was there drinking and enjoying the moon, accompanied by Bai Hua Xianzi and Absolute Shadow.

Named entities: Ye Zhangqing, Bai Hua Xianzi, Absolute Shadow.

Besides, the moonlight at Myriad Demon Pass is indeed nice, with a unique charm.

Named entities: Myriad Demon Pass.

I don't know if it's because of constant warfare, but the moon over Myriad Demon Pass is blood-red; seen from afar, it's eerily bizarre.

Named entities: Myriad Demon Pass.

Just as Xu Jie finished his sigh, he happened to see Qi Xiong stride in with an excited expression, and everyone curiously asked.

Named entities: Xu Jie, Qi Xiong.

What's up? What good thing did you run into this late at night?

Named entities: good person? Actually "good deed" not "good person". So none.

Hehe, of course it's good news, and it's great news!

No.

Oh, go on, tell us.

No.

Qi Xiong rubbed his hands excitedly as he came and sat before everyone; seeing this, the others also became interested—what good thing could there be this late at night?

Named entities: Qi Xiong.

Hehe, the opportunity to slay the Demon Emperor has arrived.

Named entities: Demon Emperor. Not in glossary; translate meaning: Demon Emperor.

Huh?

No.

Slay the Demon Emperor?

Named entities: Demon Emperor.

What do you mean?

No.

As for that Red Dragon Demon Emperor, saying they aren't salivating over it is definitely false; they've long had their eyes on it.

Named entities: Red Dragon Demon Emperor. Also Demon Emperor is part of it.

As for why they haven't acted yet, it's simply because they lack confidence.

No.

Even though Yu Mo has broken through to the Emperor Realm, she still wouldn't dare say she could defeat the Red Dragon Demon Emperor, especially since it has countless Demon Race underlings.

Named entities: Yu Mo, Emperor Realm, Red Dragon Demon Emperor, Demon Race. Also 'Demon Race strong cultivators' is generic.

Acting rashly against it might bring about some unexpected trouble.

No.

Think before you act; don't fight a battle you're not sure of winning. Therefore, acting now against the Red Dragon Demon Emperor doesn't match the Dao Yi Sect's character.

Named entities: Red Dragon Demon Emperor, Dao Yi Sect.

That's why the Dao Yi Sect has merely endured, at most capturing a Demon King to eat.

Named entities: Dao Yi Sect, Demon King.

But now Qi Xiong says the opportunity to deal with the Red Dragon Demon Emperor has arrived—who wouldn't be curious? Even Yu Mo and the others look at him expectantly, asking.

Named entities: Qi Xiong, Red Dragon Demon Emperor, Yu Mo.

Hurry up and tell us what's going on.

No.

Hehe, just now several great powers' sages came to find me, saying the Qingtian Holy Lord had contacted them...

Named entities: Sages, Qingtian Holy Lord.

After he explained the situation truthfully to everyone, everyone was stunned, and Qin Shan Hai even shouted in anger.

Named entities: Qin Shan Hai.

It's that damn thing again—is he addicted? One day I'll kill him.

No named entities.

Junior Brother, don't panic—the Qingtian Holy Lord is a good person; without him, we couldn't have come to Myriad Demon Pass, nor would we have a chance to obtain Demon Emperor ingredients.

Named entities: Qingtian Holy Lord, good person, Myriad Demon Pass, Demon Emperor.

Senior Brother, that's absolutely right.

Named entities: Senior Brother.

Senior Brother, do you mean we should turn their scheme against them?

Named entities: Senior Brother.

Hehe, still Junior Brother understands me.

Named entities: Junior Brother.

Heh heh...

No.

Heh heh heh...

No.

Just by briefly explaining the whole matter, everyone already guessed Qi Xiong's intention.

Named entities: Qi Xiong.

Hong Zun was the first to react; the two senior brothers exchanged a knowing smile, and immediately the courtyard filled with sinister heh-heh laughter.

Named entities: Hong Zun, Senior Brother.

Along with the midnight wind, for some reason it gave a somewhat chilly feeling.

No.

Did you hear any sound?

No.

It seems I heard something.

No.

It must be laughter.

No.

The few sages who hadn't gone far faintly heard the laughter, each turning their heads suspiciously toward the City Lord's Mansion.

Named entities: Sages, City Lord's Mansion.

The sages' senses are sharp; they shouldn't be mistaken—that laughter is coming from the City Lord's Mansion.

Named entities: Sages, City Lord's Mansion.

Damn, this laughter doesn't sound right—how could it resemble that of a demonic cultivator? Isn't the Dao Yi Sect supposed to be a righteous sect?

Named entities: Demonic Cultivators, Dao Yi Sect, Sect.

We must have misheard; how could the Dao Yi Sect possibly produce such a sound?

Named entities: Dao Yi Sect.

They exchanged doubtful glances; one person spoke uncertainly, and upon hearing it, the others nodded in agreement.

No.

Right, we definitely misheard.

No.

The Upper Sect is indeed a prestigious orthodox sect.

Named entities: Upper Sect.

Heh heh...

No.

Heh heh heh...

No.

Still trying to reassure themselves, the laughter came again, and this time it was crystal clear; the few's faces instantly froze—damn, what's going on with the Dao Yi Sect?

Named entities: Dao Yi Sect.

For a moment, the few suddenly felt lost.

No.

Indeed, following Qingtian Holy Land was absolutely not a good choice; I had thought that abandoning darkness for light and turning to the Dao Yi Sect would be a new beginning.

But this is only the first day; they suddenly felt that this also wasn't a perfect choice.

This Dao Yi Sect is somewhat strange; in short, it gives people an indescribable feeling.

"I'll head back first, see you tomorrow."

"Mm, I'm heading back too."

The atmosphere was a bit awkward; for a moment no one knew what to say, after exchanging greetings they soon dispersed one after another.

As for the City Lord's Mansion courtyard, the Dao Yi Sect members had already gathered together, old and young alike each offering their plans.

With such a good opportunity, it's naturally impossible to miss.

Moreover, the Dao Yi Sect's appetite is not small; besides the Red Dragon Demon Emperor, they also want to casually capture some Demon Emperors, Demon Kings and the like.

"Sect Master, I think we shouldn't just focus on the Red Dragon Demon Emperor this time; such a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity, how can we be petty? We should also take in those Demon Emperors, Demon Kings, and the like."

Xu Jie said with a smile; upon hearing this, Qi Xiong immediately nodded in approval.

"Well said; our Dao Yi Sect's status naturally precludes pettiness. Since the Heaven-Uplifting Holy Lord is being so courteous, there's no reason to refuse—your idea is spot on and exactly suits our sect's wishes."

"Sect Master, you flatter me."

"Haha, I've always seen your potential; I wasn't wrong."

"Good fellow, from the start aiming at the Red Dragon Demon Emperor to now accepting anyone—Ye Zhangqing listening on the side thinks that if this continues they might wipe out the entire Demon Race in one fell swoop."

Their appetite keeps growing; I don't know what the Heaven-Uplifting Holy Lord is up to now. If he found out that his plan has been seen through by the Dao Yi Sect, and they are now scheming to turn the tables, what would his mood be?
