Sheng Fu

Seeing that Li Hongshan seemed like a wild beast about to be aroused, Yuwen Jun smiled gently and said, "Soul practitioners do have some ingenious ideas, but they are only concerned with the matter and not the person. Please bear with me, Grand Preceptor."

"The adjustment period takes time."

Li Hongshan nodded and smiled, "Understood, Your Highness. Thank you for your trouble."

"How could I not know that the reason why the Demon Clan is so powerful is because the Demon Lord has a large number of soul masters under his command."

"I understand this principle, and in chaotic times, great destruction and great construction are necessary!"

Yuwen Jun smiled subtly and said, "If that's the case, you can speak more openly from now on. You can go to the courtyard next door and invite Commander Yue Bo over for a detailed discussion as well."

"Actually, I have always been looking forward to what a magnificent scene it would be if the Soul Masters led their army to attack the Divine Realm."

Even if the gods and demons form an alliance, they may not be able to stand on high ground and look down on us.

One can underestimate the killing power of a Wuji expert, but one should not underestimate the mental strength of a Lingxiao Soul Technique practitioner.

Li Hongshan naturally understood the implication. The arrival of the Lingxiao Soul Master would undoubtedly grant him real power, and at certain times, Li Hongshan and Yue Bo would have to play a supporting role.

"Your Highness's plans will naturally not fail," Li Hongshan said with a reserved smile.

Yuwen Jun looked at Nan Zhuo and Huo Mu and said, "We should carefully consider and plan these days, and then transfer a few more people from Yuxi Town as appropriate."

Nan Zhuo and Huo Mu nodded emphatically.

Li Hongshan's heart sank again; Yuwen Jun actually had several Lingxiao Soul Technique practitioners under his command.

But Li Hongshan's minor grievances quickly vanished, after all, these soul practitioners were all on his side.

Even if Yuwen Jun becomes a behemoth that no one dares to underestimate in the future, that is still a matter for the future.

As long as Yuwen Jun has not entered the Wuji realm, Li Hongshan doesn't need to worry too much for the time being.

Human nature is complex and ever-changing.

Li Hongshan hoped that Yuwen Jun could take charge of the overall situation and lead the army to victory in the great struggle.

But I also don't want Yuwen Jun to actually reach the point of conquering the world.

Nowadays, many people in the human court have such thoughts and feelings, and quite a few have even stood firmly on Yuwen Jun's side.

Li Hongshan gestured an invitation, and Nan Zhuo and Huo Mu nodded slightly. The three of them left the City Lord's Mansion and headed to the courtyard where Gu Yu was.

The arrival of the Lingxiao Soul Master means that Gu Yu and the others will soon return to Minghun Mountain to cultivate.

A new world order is about to emerge.

The power structure under Yuwen Jun's command will naturally evolve into a new one.

After the three left, Wu Mi jogged up to Yuwen Jun, a strange emotion flickering in her beautiful eyes. She stretched out her slender hand and waved it in front of Yuwen Jun, clicking her tongue as she asked, "So, are you really going to let Li Hongshan, Nan Zhuo, Huo Mu, and the others plan this grand undertaking together?"

"It's not that I'm worried about them fighting."

"On the contrary, this would directly expose our true strength. You haven't even entered the Wuji realm yet, but you already possess such a foundation. I'm worried that you'll encounter a deadly attack before you even reach the Wuji realm."

"At present, no one has the ability to become your protector."

"Neither the Human Emperor nor the Spirit Emperor are worthy of complete trust."

"And no one hopes that the dragon race can regain its former supreme glory."

"You should understand what I mean."

As she spoke, Wu Mi glanced nervously at the sword at Jing Peiyao's waist. Jing Peiyao's eyes remained calm as always, like black gemstones, seemingly concealing a great deal of wisdom. In fact, her opponents were no ordinary people either.

Yuwen Jun rested his head on one hand and smiled bitterly, "How could I not know this principle? When a person truly reaches a high position, former friends, or even mentors and seniors, will become their enemies." "But what can I do?"

"If I don't use my soul-manipulating abilities now, I might not be able to win the battle after autumn. If I lose, I will never have another chance to rise again."

"Take it one step at a time, and things will work themselves out when the time comes."

Upon hearing this, Wu Mi could only helplessly put her hands on her waist, her eyes like those of an angry little deer, and pursed her lips as she said, "Do we have a chance to break through the encirclement?"

Upon hearing this, Jing Peiyao grinned provocatively and said, "What's wrong? Even you, a young lady, have moments when you feel powerless? Where has the Blood Spear's sharpness gone?"

Wu Mi turned around and solemnly reminded Jing Peiyao, "In the past, no one would have cared about your life or death, because no one would have thought that you could cultivate the Ziwei True Essence to such a high level, and no one would have thought that you had the potential to surpass Empress Fuyao."

"But things are different now, you have the blessing of the Purple Star Holy Sword."

"Your personal fortune is currently at its peak, and anyone with eyes can see that you have the opportunity to surpass Empress Fuyao."

You should understand the principle that "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."

"The world is vast, encompassing everything and containing endless scenery."

"But the world is also very small, so small that it can only accommodate the ambitions of a few people. Now that one or two more people have suddenly appeared, the previous few people will definitely strangle the young newcomers when the time is right."

Upon hearing this, Jing Peiyao remained unconvinced, gently stroking the hilt of the Ziwei Holy Sword and calmly smiling, "It's alright. At most, we just won't be able to fight our way out."

"But those few people also seem to have a hard time fighting their way out."

"Everyone is doing it reluctantly."

"Why should a person who cultivates the Tao care about the outcome of death?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Mi rubbed her head vigorously, but after thinking for a long time, she still couldn't come up with a perfect solution. She simply said indifferently, "Madmen do indeed have the ability to break the rules."

……

In the neighboring courtyard.

When Gu Yu and his companions saw Nan Zhuo, Huo Mu, and Li Hongshan enter side by side, they first bowed and then quickly tidied up the tables and chairs to make room for these three big shots.

"You've all improved quite a bit!" Nan Zhuo couldn't hide his kindness and greeted Gu Yu with a friendly expression.

Gu Yu stepped forward and bowed deeply, saying, "We are merely offering a starting point."

Huo Mu laughed and said, "Having dealt with humans for so long, I've picked up some of their worldliness."

"You should return to Mount Minghun and undergo a period of purification."

Then, Huo Mu waved his sleeve, creating a void passage for Gu Yu and the others.

"We'll take our leave now!" Gu Yu said with a satisfied expression.

Although Gu Yu had a heart full of passion and ambition, he also knew that the current situation was beyond their control. At this critical juncture, having elders with profound cultivation come to their rescue was undoubtedly a blessing for a young man like Gu Yu.

Li Hongshan remained silent. He knew some of the ways soul practitioners communicated, but he didn't know the specifics. However, after spending some time with these two, he would naturally find out the details.

"The commander will be here soon, so why don't we wait a moment?" Li Hongshan said softly.

Nan Zhuo lowered his head slightly and said, "No rush, tonight is still long."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Bo arrived.

However, Yue Bo's eyes looked somewhat haggard, his beard was unshaven, and he was unkempt, showing none of the dignity expected of a human commander. (End of Chapter)
