~8 min read 1,553 words

At this moment, the movements of the Demon Race have already caused an uproar between heaven and earth, and all beings are in turmoil.

"Hiss... the Demon Race's tens of millions strong army has emerged, heading for Penglai Xiandao?"

"It seems that Di Jun Taiyi's ambition can finally no longer be hidden."

"A great war is about to erupt again; how can we, all beings, protect ourselves?"

"Retreat, retreat quickly; do not let yourself be drawn into this war."

Countless mighty figures exclaimed in shock.

You must know, the scale of this deployment of the Demon Race's tens of millions strong army surpasses even the previous gathering of ten million dragons, being even more shocking to the world.

Not to mention other things, once the great war erupts, it could spread across millions of miles of the primordial wilderness.

Moreover, whether it is Di Jun Taiyi or East King Duke and others, they are beings whose strength stands out even among Quasi-Saints, not to be underestimated.

Once drawn into it, even if merely affected by the war's aftermath, it would be enough to be called eternally doomed.

This is a place of right and wrong; one should not linger long!

The many beings who had been cultivating around Penglai Xiandao, at this moment also had no time for anything else, immediately setting off and flying away into the distance.

Penglai Xiandao, Purple Mansion Continent!

The movements of the Demon Race naturally could not escape the notice of the Xiating people.

"Damn it, Di Jun Taiyi has brought forth the Demon Race's army."

"Hmph, they intend to go to war with our Xiating."

Yun Zhongjun snorted coldly, unable to keep from speaking in a deep voice.

Upon these words, the Xiating people's faces immediately varied.

Although the Xiating is extraordinary, previously under the Candle Dragon's karmic fire divine ability, many strong ones perished and its vital energy was greatly depleted.

At this moment, again witnessing the Demon Race's countless tens of millions mighty army marching forward in grand array.

It must be said, in the hearts of the Xiating people there still lingers an irrepressible sense of fear.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, what should we do?"

"At present, our condition has not yet recovered to its peak."

"Could it be... that we can only sit and await death?"

A Xiating strong one thus inquired, his face quite anxious and panicked.

Separated by endless void, the Xiating people have already felt the immense pressure emanating from the Demon Race.

The four words 'sit and await death' alone caused quite a stir within the Xiating.

Hearing these words, East King Duke's face grew grim, yet he furrowed his brows and immediately shouted:

"Nonsense, do not speak recklessly here, shaking the dignity of our Xiating."

"Hmph, I am the Foremost Male Immortal; my dignity cannot be insulted."

"Since Di Jun Taiyi and the others dare to come, today we will fight them to the death."

It can be said that, regarding the Demon Race's opportunistic intrusion, East King Duke had also anticipated it.

He is not the slightest bit false.

After all, speaking of it, East King Duke and Di Jun Taiyi and the others are of the same generation, and their strengths differ hardly at all.

If today we were to shrink back, would we not be laughed at by all beings?!

Furthermore, East King Duke habitually proclaims himself as the 'Dao Ancestor-appointed Foremost Male Immortal'.

Under such great renown, he is all the more unable to retreat.

Otherwise, would it not be just as Chen Ku said before, that the Dao Ancestor misjudged?

However, as his words fell, the Xiating people stared at each other, momentarily speechless.

"This......"

East King Duke's words were, however, spoken simply.

But does the Xiating at present truly possess the strength to wage war against the Demon Race?

Some lower-strength cultivators could not help but think this way.

Yet they have long been bound to the Xiating, sharing honor and suffering alike!

In other words, even if someone flees the battlefield, their identity as a Xiating person cannot be severed.

At that time, the Demon Race would still not let them go.

Only by uniting wholeheartedly can there still be some chance of victory, or rather a path to survival.

Thus, the people's faces gradually became firm, showing considerable solidarity and hatred of the enemy, with resolute gazes.

Seeing this, East King Duke nodded, as if continuing to comfort the people.

"No need to worry!"

"I am the Dao Ancestor-appointed Foremost Male Immortal; even if defeated, who would dare to kill me?"

"This time, I will myself share advance and retreat with you, living and dying together."

Upon these words, the people's hearts were indeed greatly settled.

"Not bad!"

In the people's view, even if Di Jun Taiyi were even more bold and reckless, would he really dare to slay the Heaven-Mandated East King Duke?

This, however, gave the Xiating people considerable confidence.

This also shows how deep East King Duke's scheming is; being able to hold the position of Xiating's lord, he is naturally no foolish lot.

In just a few words, it seemed as if he were binding his own life together with that of the Xiating people.

Be aware, even if as East King Duke supposed, Di Jun Taiyi would have some misgivings.

But as for the lives of the other Xiating people, would he care at all?!

However, now that a great crisis has arrived, everyone no longer has time to think clearly about the problem.

And although King Father of the East's words sounded full of confidence, he was not blindly arrogant.

After a moment of contemplation, he turned his gaze to Lord of the Clouds.

"Lord of the Clouds, go to West Kunlun and invite the Queen Mother of the West to come, so we can jointly resist the Demon Race."

King Father of the East thought of the Queen Mother of the West; her strength is comparable to his, which is also a great help.

Hearing this, Lord of the Clouds startled, then said somewhat doubtfully:

"Will the Queen Mother of the West agree to intervene in this matter?"

Today, the Demon Race is merely heading for Xiating; it can be said that they have nothing to do with the Queen Mother of the West.

Will she truly act out of righteousness?

In fact, when King Father of the East first established Xiating, he had also invited the Queen Mother of the West to jointly govern and oversee all male and female immortals.

But at that time, the Queen Mother of the West had already clearly refused.

Now that war is imminent, how could the Queen Mother of the West possibly lend aid?

As for Lord of the Clouds' concerns, King Father of the East seemed to have anticipated them.

"Just go!"

"The Queen Mother of the West is the foremost female immortal, equal in rank to me, and a perfect match."

"I suppose she would not stand by and watch someone die without helping."

King Father of the East appeared full of confidence, as if he had seen through the Queen Mother of the West's nature.

Having come to this point, Lord of the Clouds could not say much more.

"Yes!"

He immediately bowed in assent, then accepted the order and hurried swiftly toward West Kunlun.

Watching Lord of the Clouds' departing back, King Father of the East's expression brightened greatly.

"As long as the Queen Mother of the West comes out of seclusion, the two of us joining forces will have no trouble dealing with Di Jun and Taiyi."

In fact, this is King Father of the East's true intention.

If he were to deal with only one of Di Jun or Taiyi, King Father of the East would perhaps not be lacking at all.

But if he were to face two opponents alone, that would be somewhat insufficient.

Joining forces with the Queen Mother of the West is precisely to deal with the two strongest beings in the Demon Court.

Afterward, he then looked toward the other great beings below.

"If war breaks out, you shall each go to deal with the Ten Great Demon Saints and such."

Having spoken, many great beings of Xiating also bowed in assent.

Xiating's great beings versus the Demon Race's great beings; Xiating is not necessarily destined to lose.

Thinking that he had already arranged everything, King Father of the East then shouted:

"Xiating's beings, gather quickly!"

"Today the Demon Race seeks to start a great war; we shall meet those mixed-breed beasts in battle."

"This time, we will make sure the Demon Race has no return!"

King Father of the East's eyes gleamed, his aura oppressive, and his words boomed.

For a moment, countless cultivators of Xiating were also infected, their faces brightening and their spirits aroused.

"Meet the battle! Meet the battle!"

"Xiating will win!"

"Xiating will win!"

One after another, the shouts echoed, and all beings of Xiating looked up to King Father of the East's bearing.

"Fervor!"

"Fierce!"

The strong beings of Xiating greatly boosted their morale, all appearing in a posture of relentless opposition to the Demon Race.

Instantly, the surging battle intent spreading across Penglai Island was also astonishing enough, not completely suppressed by the Demon Race's momentum.
