Chapter 243: The Group Members' Open Plot

The people in the group began to discuss.

Liu Chongxiao: "If you want to speed up the resolution of the Demon Race, it's nothing more than roping in a few more powerhouses to join the battle!"

Ling Yan: "Makes sense. Di Jun and the others have already reached their limit; as long as one more Quasi-Saint is added, they won't be able to hold on!"

Yun Yao: "But, what other powerhouses can Boss Lu Yun mobilize right now?"

Xiao Ling'er: "I've thought about it over and over for a long time and couldn't come up with any suitable candidates."

Lin Chen: "I think perhaps we could have Laozi's Good Corpse, Taishang Laojun, take action!"

These words instantly left everyone astonished.

You Fang: "Taishang Laojun couldn't possibly take action, right?"

Jiang Ye: "That's right, his original self is still a competitor to Boss Lu Yun!"

Qiu Wanli: "No, I actually support Old Lin's proposal. If Taishang Laojun doesn't take action, Lu Yun can directly abolish his Ren Sect! Let's see if he's afraid!"

"Holy crap!"

"Holy crap!"

Qiu Wanli's words suddenly made everyone excited in unison.

Fang Xu: "That's right. With Lu Yun's current status as the Human Saint Emperor and the spokesperson for Humanity, he certainly has the qualifications to do so!"

Lei Hong: "In this way, Taishang Laojun will have to help even if he doesn't want to!"

Qin Ling: "Interesting! I also kind of want to see Taishang Laojun looking like he doesn't want to help but has no choice but to take action!"

Fang Wenjie: "Want to see +1! Boss Lu Yun, hurry up and get it done!"

Ming Xi: "Want to see +2!"

Chen Hai: "Want to see +..."

"Ding! Suggestion received: Coerce Taishang Laojun into taking action to help the Human Race resolve the Demon Race! Reward: One Rare Treasure Chest!"

The system's notification sound suddenly rang out in Lu Yun's mind.

Lu Yun couldn't help but feel happy.

Although it was only a rare-level task, it was already quite good for him now! After all, his strength had improved again, and the difficulty of triggering high-level tasks was becoming greater and greater.

Moreover, he also felt that Lin Chen's suggestion was excellent.

Lu Yun: "Many thanks for the suggestion, Boss Lin Chen! I'll start right now!"

Thus, Lu Yun began to communicate with his avatar on the Primordial Land through his thoughts.

On the Primordial Land.

The collision between the Human Race and the Demon Race continued, remaining in a stalemate.

Just at this moment, within the Human army, Lu Yun's Literature Dao avatar, Lu Wen, suddenly spoke in a loud voice: "Taishang Laojun, you've watched the show for long enough; it's time for you to take action!"

Once these words were spoken, all sides could not help but fall into silence.

Even Zhenyuanzi, Fuxi, and the others who were in fierce battle with the Demon Race felt somewhat stunned for a moment upon hearing Lu Wen's words.

Although they knew Lu Yun's methods were extraordinary, they never expected him to make such a request directly to Taishang Laojun. No matter how one looked at it, Taishang Laojun couldn't possibly agree! After all, even they could see that Lu Yun and Taishang Laojun's original self, Laozi, were in a hostile, competitive relationship. How could Taishang Laojun possibly help Lu Yun?

Di Jun and Taiyi sneered in disdain, feeling that Lu Yun's move was purely a case of a desperate person clutching at straws; they did not believe Taishang Laojun would become an enemy of the Demon Race for the sake of the Human Race.

Baize rolled his eyes and loudly said to the Demons: "Everyone, this Lu Wen is clearly at his wit's end, which is why he has made such an unwise move! Everyone, put in more effort; the victory of this battle will surely belong to our Demon Race!"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding Demons actually had their morale greatly boosted!

Taishang Laojun, who was hiding in a secret place watching the battle, was also slightly stunned after hearing Lu Wen's words. He also suspected that Lu Yun's side was at their wit's end, which was why they were trying to treat a dead horse as if it were alive. He wished for Lu Yun to be defeated, so how could he possibly take action?

Therefore, he chose to ignore Lu Wen's words and continued to watch the battle.

Consequently, long after Lu Wen's voice fell, no response came. For a time, even the Humans who were forming a Great Array to resist the Demons were somewhat bewildered and looked at Lu Wen one after another.

Seeing that Taishang Laojun did not react, Lu Wen's face did not show the slightest hint of surprise.

He just sneered and spoke again: "Taishang Laojun, it seems you intend to stand by and watch. Since that is the case, our Human Race will no longer hold any expectations for you. It is time for our Human Race to draw a clear line with your Ren Sect!"

Once Lu Yun said this, the entire battlefield shook.

The playful smiles on the faces of Di Jun and Taiyi froze instantly. The Ten Great Demon Sages, who had just seen hope for victory, all widened their eyes! They had originally thought Lu Yun was doing useless work, but hearing Lu Wen's words, they felt as if they had been slapped hard. They only then realized that Lu Yun's move was not without purpose; it was just that they themselves were foolish and could not see Lu Yun's scheme.

Zhenyuanzi, Fuxi, and the others were also shocked by Lu Yun's words.

They did not expect that Lu Yun would come up with such a method at this time, wanting to use drawing a clear line with the Ren Sect as a bargaining chip to forcibly coerce Taishang Laojun into helping the Human Race.

This kind of courage and boldness made them secretly gasp in admiration, and at the same time, it made their confidence increase greatly!

If Taishang Laojun could really be made to participate in the battle, Di Jun and the others would definitely not be able to hold on!

And Taishang Laojun, who was hiding in the distance watching the battle, felt both angry and terrified after hearing Lu Yun's words.

"This Lu Yun! He is truly too arrogant! He actually dares to threaten me like this!"

What he was angry about was Lu Yun's arrogance and domineering nature; what he was terrified of was that what Lu Yun said did not seem to be just talk. If he really did not take action to help, the Ren Sect might truly be abolished, and at that time, the foundation of his original self's Saint position would be shaken!

Taishang Laojun realized the severity of the situation and dared not delay any longer; he immediately reported the situation to Laozi in the Chaos to ask for a countermeasure.

In the Chaos.

The people in the Transmigration Chat Group were still regretting that they could not see Taishang Laojun's expression with their own eyes.

Lu Yun chuckled and said to them: "It's the same if you admire Laozi's expression!"

Immediately, everyone's gaze turned toward Laozi in the distance.

Coincidentally, Laozi, who was currently driving the Taiji Diagram to fight against Ancestral Witches like Dijiang and Jumang, had his expression sink to the extreme after hearing Taishang Laojun's report.

He did not expect Lu Yun to make such a resolute move, which made him feel very troubled.

Laozi knew deeply that Lu Yun had now Proved the Dao and become a Saint, had opened up Humanity, and possessed incomparably powerful strength. If he truly wanted to abolish the Ren Sect, I fear even the Heavenly Dao would find it difficult to stop him.

At that time, would he really become the first person in the Great Desolation to have his Saint position abolished?! No!

This absolutely must not be allowed to happen! Yet, no matter how he pondered it over and over, he could not come up with a countermeasure. Not far away, Yuanshi, who was also fighting, noticed the change in Laozi's expression and couldn't help but ask, "Big Brother, what has suddenly happened to you?"

Once these words were spoken, whether it was the Ancestral Witch side or the other Heavenly Dao Saints, all cast curious gazes toward Laozi.

Laozi gritted his teeth and explained the matter. Immediately, everyone who heard it was left dumbfounded; the Heavenly Dao Saints, aside from Nuwa, all cast shocked gazes toward Lu Yun.

Clearly, none of them had expected that Lu Yun would suddenly think of such a method to torment Taishang Laojun at this critical juncture!

This was simply too ruthless! Even Hongjun, while continuing to deal with attacks from all directions, couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly, contemplating what changes this move by Lu Yun would cause.

Without a doubt, if Laozi's Saint position were truly abolished by Lu Yun, it would be extremely disadvantageous for his side! At that time, the few Ancestral Witches that Laozi was responsible for blocking would be able to free up their hands, and whether they dealt with the other Heavenly Dao Saints or came to deal with him, Hongjun, it would put significant pressure on them!

The members of the Transmigration Chat Group saw the reactions of these Great Desolation Saints around them and were all overjoyed.

Yun Yao: "Hahaha, look at Hongjun's expression quickly!"

Jiang Ye: "Tsk tsk, too spectacular! An open plot is indeed much harder to guard against than a hidden one!"

Fang Wenjie: "Big Brother Lin Chen is still the best; just by coming up with an idea, he made this group of Great Desolation Saints dumbfounded!"

Lin Chen: "It's not that I'm the best, it's that Big Brother Lu Yun is the best. If Big Brother Lu Yun didn't have such high strength now, my suggestion would never have been possible to implement!"

Fang Xu: "Hehe, no matter what, this move not only resolved the siege on the Human Race but also caused the Heavenly Dao Faction to fall into internal strife; it really is killing two birds with one stone!"

Xiao Ling'er: "Do you guys think Taishang Laojun will really help the Human Race?"

Liu Chongxiao: "Of course! Now he has to help even if he doesn't want to!"

Lei Hong: "The only thing he might be able to do is to go through the motions without putting in any real effort!"

Qin Ling: "Hehe, Lu Yun won't let him go through the motions without putting in effort!"

……

Sure enough, just as everyone had said, no matter how unwilling Laozi was, in the end, he could only order his Good Corpse, Taishang Laojun, to take action.

Thus, not long after, Taishang Laojun's voice spread across the entire battlefield: "Lu Yun, your actions are far too arrogant. However, considering you are the Human Saint Emperor, I will help you this time. But this is only once, and it shall not be taken as a precedent!"

As Taishang Laojun's voice fell, a powerful aura surged from afar and instantly joined the battlefield.

One could see Taishang Laojun holding a horsetail whisk, his figure elegant, radiating vast divine might as he arrived.

Di Jun, Taiyi, and the others saw this, and their expressions changed drastically. They never expected that Taishang Laojun would actually help Lu Yun.

In this way, their previous plan had completely gone down the drain!

They might even be wiped out by the Human Race instead! Zhenyuanzi, Fuxi, and the others were overjoyed, their eyes filled with excitement. They knew that with the addition of Taishang Laojun, they would undoubtedly win this battle!

The Human Race army's morale was also greatly boosted, and they began to launch a fierce counterattack.

For a moment, before Taishang Laojun had even made a move, the Demon Race army already showed signs of collapsing.

Baize saw that things were not looking good and hurriedly sent a voice transmission to appease everyone: "Everyone, do not panic! Taishang Laojun was forced by that Lu Yun to take action; he might not necessarily use his full strength, so don't panic!"

These words immediately calmed many of the Demon Race powerhouses down quite a bit.

Moreover, they soon discovered that after Taishang Laojun arrived on the battlefield, he was indeed just going through the motions, casually displaying some Supernatural Powers, and he didn't even take out his Spiritual Treasure, posing no threat to the Demon Race at all.

This made the Demon Race breathe a sigh of relief.

Fuxi, Zhenyuanzi, and the others were deeply disappointed.

But just at this moment—

Lu Wen spoke up again: "Taishang Laojun, is this all the strength you have? It seems your Ren Sect is indeed unworthy of enjoying the Human Race Luck of my people!"

His tone was full of disappointment, as if he were prepared to abolish the Ren Sect directly.

Taishang Laojun's expression changed drastically.

He hadn't expected that he wouldn't even be able to get away with going through the motions!

"Wait!"

He hurriedly shouted aloud, gritting his teeth: "I was just paralyzing these Demons earlier; I will give them a taste of my power right now!"

After speaking, as if to prove his strength, he suddenly unleashed the Vajra and aimed it at the Demon Saint Guiche, smashing it over!

"Ah!"

Guiche was caught off guard by the attack and had no time to defend; he let out a miserable scream and was directly knocked unconscious by the Vajra! Oh no!

Di Jun, Taiyi, and the other nine Great Demon Saints all had their expressions change drastically!

At present, the Demon Race was already at its limit, and with one Demon Saint, Guiche, gone, the situation was dangerous! Just as they were thinking about whether there were any countermeasures, the Hunyuan Heluo Array had already begun to show signs of chaos!

"How could this happen?"

Taishang Laojun's expression also changed.

He hadn't expected that Guiche would be such a piece of trash; he had only moved his hand casually, and Guiche couldn't even take it!

Now, had he really become Lu Yun's helper? Just as Taishang Laojun was at a loss, he suddenly heard Lu Wen let out a hearty laugh: "Hahaha, not bad, not bad! Taishang Laojun, your Ren Sect has performed a great service for my Human Race! Everyone, attack with all your might and wipe out the Demon Race!"

"Kill!"

Immediately, the Human Race army erupted with unprecedented terrifying power, launching an assault directly at the gap in the Demon Race army caused by Guiche's fainting! What was even more coincidental was that at this moment, the Xihe sisters had completely taken control of all the main stars in Outer Space, and with their full cooperation, the power of the Human Race's Zhou Tian Star Formation surged!

Thus, after a round of impact, the Demon Race's Hunyuan Heluo Array suddenly began to shake violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment! ……

In the Chaos.

Many Saints saw this scene from afar, and their expressions turned strange.

"Hahaha……"

The Twelve Ancestral Witches couldn't hold back and burst into laughter!

Lu Yun smiled and cupped his hands toward Laozi, saying: "Many thanks to the Taiqing Saint for your help! If the Ren Sect is willing to abandon darkness for light, my Human Race is still willing to continue offering incense!"

Laozi: "……"

The gazes of the Western Two Sages toward Laozi were filled with even more suspicion, as if they were questioning whether Laozi had betrayed the Heavenly Dao Faction!

Even Yuanshi and Tongtian didn't know what to say about their brother for a moment.

Fortunately, at this very moment, they suddenly sensed a disturbance coming from afar, and their attention was drawn toward it.

They saw a figure clad in purple robes rapidly breaking through the Chaos matter, appearing before everyone.

It turned out that Zixiao Daoren had arrived! (End of chapter)
