Chapter 897: The Plot of the Witches and Demons
Tiandi Dian.
Jimeng and the others bowed one after another: "Your Majesty!"
"There is no need for such formalities, everyone."
Lu Ya wore a modest smile, then said with a solemn expression: "I have summoned you ministers today to discuss two matters. The first matter is that the Outer Starry Sky has gained access to the network.
This may seem like a good thing, but in reality, it will shake the foundation of our Demon Race.
Therefore, I intend to prohibit the circulation of Mobile Phones in the Outer Starry Sky; only high-level members at the Golden Immortal level or above may possess them."
Cultivating to the Golden Immortal level means one possesses their own Dao, and their Dao heart is firm.
Those who betray their sect, like Randeng and the others, are few and far between in Honghuang.
Moreover, Golden Immortals are already high-level members of the Demon Race; even if he wanted to ban it, it would be impossible to do so.
As the strategist of the Demon Race, Yingzhao nodded in agreement and said gravely: "Although the Outer Starry Sky gaining network access makes it convenient for our clansmen to purchase various cultivation supplies, it also makes them easily influenced by the various ideologies online.
Especially the sermons of the various Saints.
If our clansmen all come to believe in the various Saints, then our Demon Race will not be far from falling apart.
Prohibiting the circulation of Mobile Phones is a necessity.
As for the cultivation supplies needed by our clansmen, we can completely purchase them in a unified manner from the Primordial Mall and then resell them to the clansmen."
"I second this."
Jimeng and the others nodded one after another.
As high-level members of the Demon Race, they naturally do not wish for the Demon Race to fall apart; the orthodox teachings of the various Saints must never be allowed to spread in.
One must know that even Nuwa has not passed down any orthodox teachings.
Lu Ya nodded and continued: "The second matter is that I intend to return to Honghuang. Now that the true bodies of the various Saints have been driven out of the Primordial Continent and various forces are stirring, the obstacles to our Demon Race returning to the continent have disappeared."
Upon hearing this, the eyes of Yingzhao and the others lit up.
Having retreated to the Outer Starry Sky for over a hundred thousand years, there was not a day they did not dream of returning to Honghuang.
Yet they had not expected this day to come so soon.
Yingzhao, being experienced and prudent, had a glimmer of light in his eyes: "Your Majesty, now is indeed the best time to return to Honghuang. However, regarding this matter, we must first report to Wa Palace."
Jimeng and the others nodded one after another.
Their attitude toward Nuwa is very complex; they are both dependent on her and repelled by her.
In reality, Nuwa is aware of their attitude, but she does not enjoy power struggles; therefore, as long as the Demon Race still believes in her and can provide her with a continuous stream of destiny, she will continue to support the Demon Race.
It can be said that as long as no new Saint is born within the Demon Race, her status within the Demon Race remains unshakable.
Lu Ya nodded.
He also knows the importance of Nuwa's support.
As long as Nuwa supports them, the Three Corpses of the various Saints will be wary.
Yingzhao continued: "Besides reporting to Wa Palace, I believe our Demon Race also needs to find some allies in Honghuang. These allies are not the Demon Race members Your Majesty has already won over in Honghuang, but rather the likes of Kunpeng Laozu and Minghe Laozu."
Hearing the name 'Kunpeng Laozu', Lu Ya's expression immediately sank.
During the final decisive battle between the Witches and Demons back then, Kunpeng not only fled the battlefield but also made off with his father's River Chart and Luo Book, which is something he has held a grudge over to this day.
Jimeng said: "I agree with what Yingzhao said. Your Majesty, the great cause of the Demon Race is what matters most. Once our Demon Race returns to Honghuang and takes control of the Heavenly Court, Your Majesty will be able to obtain endless resources.
With Your Majesty's aptitude, you will be able to cultivate to the Quasi-Saint Peak in a few million years.
By then, Your Majesty can head to the Sun Star, obtain the Eastern Emperor Bell of the Donghuang, and then it will not be too late to kill Kunpeng."
Lu Ya is also someone who knows how to endure.
He took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "Just as the two Great Saints have said, there will be an opportunity to deal with Kunpeng in the future. Moreover, no matter what, the North Sea Demon Clan is also a part of our Demon Race."
Kunpeng Laozu resides in the North Sea; the majority of the North Sea, as well as the hundreds of trillions of miles of land adjacent to the North Sea, are his territory. Furthermore, his disciples and descendants are spread all over Honghuang, making him one of the top-tier forces in Honghuang. If they have the help of Kunpeng Laozu, their chances of returning to Honghuang will be much greater.
Yingzhao smiled with satisfaction and said: "In fact, besides Kunpeng Laozu, Minghe Laozu, the Queen Mother of the West, and the Dragon-Phoenix-Qilin, we should also make contact with them. Although they will all be our opponents in the future, our main enemies at present are still the Four Teachings and the Heavenly Court."
The Wu Clan is overbearing and cannot tolerate any other race; the Demon Race is equally overbearing.
In their eyes, one must either become their own kind or become their Blood Food.
Lu Ya and the others nodded one after another.
Jimeng continued: "The Wu Clan will likely send out troops this time as well. It is said that over these years, they have also cultivated quite a few Great Witches. Although these big brutes have no brains, they are fearless in the face of death, and we must be on guard against them."
Lu Ya said in a low voice: "The Witches and Demons are mortal enemies; in the end, a winner must be decided. However, before we conquer the various forces, it is not advisable for us to have a direct conflict with them."
With the return to Honghuang confirmed, the group began to discuss the details.
Finally, it was decided that Lu Ya would personally head to Wahuang Heaven to report, Yingzhao would be sent as an envoy to the North Sea Demon Clan, the Sea of Blood, the Dragon Clan, and other forces, while Jimeng would be responsible for conscripting troops.
They have eighteen Great Luo Golden Immortals, so they will conscript 180 billion troops.
Please... you.... bookmark 6... 9... shu.... com....!
Each Great Luo will lead 10 billion troops.
180 billion—this number seems very large.
But compared to the peak period of the Demon Race, it is not even one-tenth of their military strength.
………
Witch God Realm.
The largest Middle Thousand World in Honghuang, with a radius of a full one hundred trillion miles.
The number of the Wu Clan living here is still in the hundreds of billions.
They are divided into Twelve Lineage Tribes, distributed in a fan shape with the Pangu Hall at the center.
The closer a tribe is to the Pangu Hall, the more powerful it is.
The Pangu Hall is magnificent and spectacular.
On the plaza in front of the Pangu Hall stands a ten-thousand-zhang-tall jade statue of Houtu, white as congealed fat and lifelike, faintly emitting an endlessly terrifying aura, as if the might of Heaven were hidden within.
In reality, this is a Clone left behind by Houtu.
Actually, calling it a Clone is somewhat inaccurate; she is more like a piece of Puppetry, only triggered at the moment of life and death for the Wu Clan, and capable of unleashing power far exceeding the Quasi-Saint Peak.
As a Saint, how could Houtu not leave some trump cards for the Wu Clan?
In the Witch-Demon War, except for Houtu transforming into the cycle of reincarnation, all other Ancestral Witches died in battle.
But in these tens of thousands of years, Houtu tried every possible method to cultivate two more Ancestral Witches.
They are Xingtian and Chiyou, respectively.
Chiyou was originally a pure-blooded member of the Wu Clan; in order to allow the Wu Clan to return to the Primordial Continent, he once proposed the Human-Wu Project, which was for the Wu Clan to unite with the Human Race to give birth to humans containing the bloodline of the Wu Clan.
Then, by supporting humans containing the bloodline of the Wu Clan to attain the status of Human Sovereign, he aimed to finally achieve a substitution, allowing the Wu Clan to return to the Primordial Continent.
For this, he did not hesitate to request that Houtu allow his True Spirit to enter the cycle of reincarnation and be reborn as a human containing the bloodline of the Wu Clan.
It is just a pity that he ultimately failed.
Although he failed, and his Witch body was even dismembered and Suppressed in various places, his True Spirit returned to his original body under the Jieyin of Houtu, and by taking advantage of this energy, he attained the status of an Ancestral Witch.
Besides the two Ancestral Witches Xingtian and Chiyou, the Wu Clan also has twenty Great Witches.
Except for the four Great Witches Jiu Feng, Xiangliu, Fengbo, and Yushi, the other Great Witches are all newly promoted.
Overall, the strength of the Wu and Demon races does not differ much.
