Chapter 994

The Demon Race's sudden sneak attack left the elders of Yun Xiantai, Stone Azure Peak, and the Great Emperor Elders so angry their teeth itched.

On the Demon Race's side, they finally vented their anger, each one thrilled.

But the happiest one was undoubtedly Bo Bo Ke.

After all, this success was entirely its chief merit, and those special Demon Race warriors were also trained by it.

At this moment, the numerous Demon Race members, including the Demon Gods, all looked at Bo Bo Ke with changed eyes.

Such treatment was probably the first time it had ever received in its life.

Bo Bo Ke endured endless scorn from childhood onward; even after breaking through to become a Demon God, the scorn remained the same.

On the surface perhaps no one dared to say anything, but behind the scenes Bo Bo Ke was well aware that all the demon races actually looked down on Bo Bo Ke.

But this time, Bo Bo Ke proved itself.

"Roar............ (Bo Bo Ke, you have rendered great service this time.)"

A Demon God growled in praise, saying this was the first time Bo Bo Ke had received praise and recognition from other Demon Gods.

However, regarding this, Bo Bo Ke felt excited inside, but on the surface still kept a calm expression.

"Roar............ (Although we won this battle, we cannot be too happy too early; we still need to proceed steadily.)"

"Roar............ (You're right."

All the Demon Gods unexpectedly agreed with Bo Bo Ke's words; after all, the facts were laid bare, proving Bo Bo Ke's method was useful.

Facing the Human Race of Haotu Shijie, brute force alone definitely wouldn't work; some change was needed.

The Demon Race was overjoyed, but in actuality this battle merely gained a small advantage; the number of Human cultivators truly slain was not many, the only notable gain being a Great Saint Elder from the Cloud Lotus Holy Land.

Compared to the Demon Race's own losses, there was simply no comparison.

But because they had lost so many times before, one could say they suffered repeated defeats; thus, even though they had only gained a small advantage this time, the Demon Race couldn't help but feel excited.

It was as if they had found a way to deal with the Human Race, and with this they could turn the tide in one fell swoop.

Having tasted success, the Demon Race proceeded to copy the method.

They also planned several sudden sneak attacks, and Bo Bo Ke indeed had some talent; the demon race cultivated by it indeed had impressive scouting ability.

They could almost precisely discover the Human Race's ambush positions, and then the Demon Race would strike suddenly, each time gaining something.

Even if the Human Race had hidden carefully, facing the Demon Race it seemed of little use.

Yet we cannot neglect to arrange surveillance; if we abandon monitoring the perimeter of the Demon Cave, the Demon Race could freely enter Haotu Shijie.

The Human Race would naturally not allow this; if that happened, the whole situation would likely spiral out of control.

The Demon Race's transformation truly caught the Human Race off guard.

For a time, the Human Race actually had no way to respond.

In the Spirit City, on Yun Xiantai, Shi Qingfeng and the other great emperor ancestors each furrowed their brows.

"How many sneak attacks has this been?"

Just now, they had received news of the Demon Race's sneak attack, and one of the ancestors gritted their teeth and asked.

"The seventh."

Yu Mo replied, in just a few days this had already become the seventh sneak attack; although the losses weren't great, damn it, it's just infuriating.

These demon races are like turtles that shrink their heads, suddenly sticking out their heads to bite you.

They can't kill you, but damn it, it's disgusting.

Moreover, the most crucial point is that the food supplies are damn near gone; we'll run out of rations any moment.

Constantly suffering losses, and damn it we can't even get the food supplies, this leaves all the ancestors completely unable to accept it.

They hit and run; the demon race now is utterly despicable, giving the human race no chance at all, to the point that even close-quarters combat is impossible.

Hearing Yu Mo's words, the other ancestors each gritted their teeth in hatred.

If there were a way, they would definitely turn these demon races into plates of delicacies.

"Damn it, if we could enter the Demon Cave, that would be great—we could wipe them out in one pot."

"That's not nonsense; if we could get in, we wouldn't need you to say it."

"What should we do now? Give up monitoring the perimeter of the Demon Cave?"

"No, absolutely cannot give up; we must firmly keep control of the perimeter of the Demon Cave."

"What then?"

When it came to solutions, all the ancestors fell into silence; for a while there really was no good solution.

Just then, Ye Zhangqing requested an audience.

There was nothing else; it was still because of the food supplies—now all the food supplies would only last two days.

Hearing this, all the ancestors were completely frantic.

"Only two days left?"

"Damn it..........."

After these two days we will run out of food; if we still can't get Demon Race Food Material then, what are we to do? Could we go get some Demon Race Food Material?

Although it's not impossible, still the saying goes: having grown accustomed to delicacies, who would want to go back to eating coarse food?

Therefore, whenever possible, the ancestors still wanted to obtain Demon Race Food Material.

But the demon race is now too despicable, making it hard to obtain.

How did it suddenly become like this? Or do they still like the former demon race's bold vigor? Now changed, it makes nobody like it at all.

Hearing the ancestors' worries, Ye Zhangqing spoke up.

"The reason the demon race is hard to deal with is nothing more than their scouting."

"Yeah, these skinny monkeys—we don't even know where they came from, each one is sharp, and their scouting ability is not bad; we simply have no chance."

Upon hearing this, Yu Mo expressed agreement, saying Ye Zhangqing's words were not bad.

The most crucial thing right now is those skinny monkey scouts of the Demon Race; as long as we deal with them, things become much simpler.

But the situation is that, no matter how careful our Human Race side is, these damn skinny monkeys always manage to find some clues.

Even if we can't precisely pinpoint the hiding place of Human Race cultivators, we can still lock onto the approximate location.

Based on this, the Demon Race either gives no chance at all, or strikes directly before you can react.

By the time reinforcements from the Human Race side arrive, they've already slipped into the Demon Cave and vanished.

Hearing Yu Mo's words, Ye Zhangqing said doubtfully.

"Then if that's the case, wouldn't improving our hiding skills work?"

The Demon Race's scouting ability suddenly improved leaps and bounds, as if they'd taken stimulants; for this, it's simple—just improve our hiding skills on our side.

Ye Zhangqing's thought was correct; the elders naturally thought of it as well.

"That's true to say, but it's not that easy."

"Yeah, we've thought of all the methods we could, but they've had little effect."

The elders looked as if this road led nowhere, but Ye Zhangqing didn't know why they hadn't thought of this point, and he immediately said:

"Actually, there's a very suitable candidate right now, as the saying goes: leave professional matters to professionals."

"Huh??? Changqing kid, you mean you have a way?"

"Yes, actually the elders should have been able to think of it too—the solution isn't right before our eyes?"
