Chapter 1918: Over-Reliance Will Lead to Annihilation!

~3 min read 589 words

Di Jiang sat humbly in the lower seat, listening to Luo Fu's reprimand; he knew Luo Fu was right, and that Luo Fu's actions were truly for their benefit.

After all, their initial thoughts had diverged from the previous situation.

If the demonic clans sought to bring Jieyin and Zhunti over, the witch clan would surely face problems.

Would Jieyin and Zhunti aid the demonic clans?

These two Western Saints had no allegiance whatsoever; if they aided the demonic clans, the demonic clans' strength would surge dramatically, and besides Dong Huang Taiyi, they would gain two more great generals.

Zhu Jiuyin frowned deeply and said: "Then it seems we must devise a plan!"

"What plan?"

Ru Shou blurted out without preparation: "If Luo Fu Shengren hadn't warned us, we never would've realized the demonic clans had already devised so many countermeasures."

"Is it because of Ling She Island?"

"Possibly. After the nine-headed bird Guiche visited Ling She Island, the demonic clans made this sudden judgment—Taiyi and Di Jun are truly swift."

Zhu Rong could not help but sigh.

In truth, with the twelve Ancestral Witches' capabilities, it was simple for them to establish themselves firmly in Honghuang; but gaining advantage over the demonic clans was difficult.

The witch clan and the demonic clans were born mortal enemies, an enmity impossible to resolve.

Luo Fu's warning was a good thing for them, yet not truly a good thing.

"Luo Fu Shengren, what should we do?"

Sister Houtu also grew tense; she did not wish Jieyin Shengren or Zhunti Shengren to directly go aid the demonic clans, for that would plunge the entire witch clan back into their original realm.

But she herself could not think of any other solution, so she could only now ask Luo Fu, to see if he had another idea.

Luo Fu said: "This matter you must figure out yourselves. If you can, break through. If you cannot, I am powerless."

Zhu Jiuyin understood Luo Fu's meaning.

Clearly, Luo Fu intended to force them to think independently, to stop relying on him for everything; if they relied on him for all things, the witch clan could never grow stronger.

Moreover, they knew better than anyone else just how powerful Luo Fu was.

Di Jiang, heeding the advice, said: "Understood, Luo Fu Shengren. The twelve Ancestral Witches will deliberate among ourselves. Luo Fu Shengren may rest for now."

Sister Xuanming glanced at Sister Houtu, who nodded; together they escorted Luo Fu back to his resting place.

Only Di Jiang and the others remained inside the Pangu Hall, but devising a plan was difficult.

Moreover, they had to determine what to do next; yet there were certain things they might not even be able to assess properly.

The demonic clans' actions aimed to sever the witch clan's escape routes.

Ru Shou and Qiang Liang clenched their fists tightly.

"If the demonic clans act this way, we must break before we rebuild!" Zhu Jiuyin thought and said: "Since Luo Fu Shengren is testing us, we must accept this trial!"

If they relied on Luo Fu for everything, they could never win this battle.

Even if they upgraded their weapons, what good would it do?

All their primordial spiritual treasures had already been enhanced to their peak; cultivating their cultivation base could elevate them to another level—but they had lost the ability to imagine coordinated battlefield tactics.

This was a fatal blow to the witch clan; Zhu Jiuyin and Di Jiang both dreaded the Ancestral Witches suffering such a setback.
