Chapter 430 The storm is rising
Dynasty.

The True Dragon Palace.

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, his expression worried.

The four top sects have all been taken over by the Demon Clan and the Demon Court.

Leaving aside the Ziyang Sect and Qingyun Sect, it's understandable that the sect leaders and elders of these sects were left vulnerable after their leaders and elders went to the Great Zhou Dynasty, making them easy targets for the Demon Clan and the Demon Court.

However, both Yunlan Sect and Wuji Sect possessed their full strength, with their sect leaders and several sage elders residing within their sects.

Even at their peak, the Yunlan Sect and Wuji Sect were ultimately unable to withstand the surprise attack from the Demon Clan and the Demon Court.

Just now, the Emperor learned some details about the Demon Clan's surprise attack on the Yunlan Sect from the Sect Master.

One of the reasons why the Yunlan Sect was so quickly conquered by the demons was because its internal defenses were compromised, and the demons had already infiltrated the Yunlan Sect.

Although the Yunlan Sect eventually discovered it, it was already too late.

It must be said that fortresses are often breached from within, and that is absolutely true.

Now, the Yunlan Sect has been captured by the Demon Clan, and the Wuji Sect has also been taken over by the Demon Court. The four top sects have all become puppets of the Demon Clan and the Demon Court.

There are also other forces, such as the Mu family, that have already been exposed as being controlled by the demon race…

Unbeknownst to many, the Demon Clan and the Demon Court have infiltrated the Eastern Region to such an extent that they have gained control of so many forces.

Just thinking about it made the emperor feel a little scared and shudder.

And who knows how many forces have been secretly planted with demonic seeds and controlled without being exposed or discovered?
If we add in these undiscovered and unexposed forces, one can imagine the extent to which the Demon Clan and the Demon Court have infiltrated the Eastern Region.

The more the emperor thought about it, the more solemn his expression became, and the heavier his heart grew.

Although the emperor did not know how the demons and the demon court managed to deceive his dynasty's monitoring of its fate.

But it's no use talking about these things now. The most important thing now is how to deal with the situation that's about to unfold.

The Demon Clan and the Demon Court have taken over the four top sects. If nothing unexpected happens, their next target will definitely be the Imperial Dynasty.

Judging from the strength that the Demon Clan and the Demon Court have shown so far, his dynasty probably cannot stop them.

Even if his dynasty were at its peak and had not lost that ancestor and two saints in the Great Zhou, the outcome would likely have been the same.

"Hopefully, the Imperial Court will send someone!"

"otherwise……"

The emperor's eyes flashed, and he sighed inwardly.

As the ruler of a dynasty, one should theoretically hold immense power and look down upon all living beings.

What kind of thing can be difficult for an emperor?

Unfortunately, there are limits to what people can do, and even emperors are no exception.

Just like now, facing the overwhelming force of the demon race and the demon court, the emperor had absolutely no confidence.

Moreover, there's the formidable Great Zhou Dynasty lurking nearby, watching with predatory eyes...

If the Imperial Court cannot send anyone, then the Emperor will have no choice but to make another option.

……

Imperial City.

Yunlan Sect's headquarters.

Although the Yunlan Sect was conquered by the Demon Clan, its headquarters in various cities of the Imperial Dynasty still exist.

After returning to the Yunlan Sect's headquarters in the imperial city, the sect leader immediately instructed the elders there: "Immediately notify the elders of the Yunlan Sect in each city to go into hiding and search with all their might for the disciples who have escaped from the Yunlan Sect."

"At the same time, spread the word about the Demon Clan and the Demon Court, and inform all the major sects affiliated with my Yunlan Sect to be wary of a surprise attack from the Demon Clan and the Demon Court..."

The sect leader of Yunlan Sect issued orders one by one in an orderly manner.

The Demon Clan and the Demon Court's intervention is no small matter; it concerns the entire human race. The Yunlan Sect Master naturally needs to spread this news as quickly as possible to prevent others from falling victim to the Demon Clan's or the Demon Court's schemes and suffering the same fate as his Yunlan Sect. "Yes, Sect Master."

The elders stationed at the Yunlan Sect immediately responded and left.

Although the Yunlan Sect was taken over by the Demon Clan, its external forces are still intact, and it's no problem for them to send messages to other sects.

……

Big week.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Zhou Chen sat upright on the dragon throne, cultivating the Emperor's Conferment of Gods Technique.

The backlash I suffered earlier has improved a lot after these days of recuperation.

The Emperor's Divine Conferment Technique is not only unparalleled in defending against enemies, but also has unique advantages in healing injuries, making it incredibly versatile.

After circulating his energy for several cycles, Zhou Chen opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of candlelight.

"The backlash on my body has mostly subsided, and I believe it won't take more than a few more treatments before I'm fully recovered."

Zhou Chen's eyes flickered as he thought to himself.

at this time.

Cao Zhengchun strode in.

"Your Majesty, the incidents involving the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect have been thoroughly investigated. The Demon Clan and the Demon Court launched a surprise attack on the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect while they were in our Great Zhou."

"Now, both the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect are under the control of the Demon Clan and the Demon Court."

"Furthermore, the Demon Clan and the Demon Court also launched a surprise attack on the remaining two of the four top sects, the Yunlan Sect and the Wuji Sect."

"The Yunlan Sect and the Wuji Sect failed to withstand the surprise attack from the Demon Clan and the Demon Court. Their patriarchs and supreme elders were killed in battle one after another, and only a small number of people escaped..."

"This is a message just sent back by Cao Youxiang. Please take a look, Your Majesty."

As Cao Zhengchun spoke, he immediately presented the message in his hand to Zhou Chen.

"Oh!"

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Zhou Chen's face.

Zhou Chen immediately took the message from Cao Zhengchun and opened it to read.

Looking at the contents of the message, Zhou Chen's expression became somewhat solemn, and his brows furrowed slightly.

To be honest, Zhou Chen never expected that the Ziyang Sect and Qingyun Sect would be controlled by the Demon Clan and the Demon Court.

Zhou Chen was originally on guard against the formidable enemies, the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect!
After all, the sect leaders and supreme elders of the Ziyang Sect and Qingyun Sect had all died in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Under normal circumstances, the Ziyang Sect and the Qingyun Sect would definitely not let this go and would certainly seek revenge for their sect leader and the Supreme Elder.

But who would have thought that the Demon Clan and the Demon Court would take advantage of the fact that the sect leaders and elders of the Ziyang Sect and Qingyun Sect were away, and launch a surprise attack on the two sects, causing them to fall completely into the hands of the alien race.

What Zhou Chen didn't expect was that the remaining two of the four top sects were also attacked by the Demon Clan and the Demon Court, and fell to them.

How could such news not be shocking?

Even Zhou Chen was filled with surprise and slightly stunned.

After reading the message in his hand, Zhou Chen frowned and pondered.

They are processing the shock of this news.

The Ziyang Sect, the Qingyun Sect, and now the Demon Clan and the Demon Court have emerged; the situation is quite chaotic.

This doesn't even include the Imperial Dynasty; there are also the Yunlan Sect and the Wuji Sect.

The top powers of the entire Eastern Region seem to be intertwined, creating a turbulent situation...
