Changsheng: My qualifications improve a little every day
Chapter 547 Interception
Zhu Linlang nodded slightly, still with some worry in her eyes, and said: "Fang Yue, your injury has just recovered, you must not overwork yourself.
I will arrange capable people to take care of the subsequent matters. You can rest assured and continue to recuperate in the palace. It won’t be too late to worry about it after you have fully recovered. "
Although Fang Yue was worried about the situation, he also knew that his current physical condition could not withstand the ordeal, so he replied, "Your Majesty is right, I will obey your order.
I just hope that Your Majesty can send more reliable people to the surrounding areas of the desolate valley to closely monitor the migration of the monsters, so that if there are any unusual movements, we can respond in time."
Zhu Linlang said, "Of course. I have ordered the commander of the Imperial Guards to lead the team there personally. I have also informed local authorities to send more people to patrol the border. Don't worry, just take good care of your injuries."
In the days that followed, Fang Yue stayed in the palace to recuperate.
Zhu Linlang would come to visit every day, and sometimes she would bring nutritious meals carefully prepared by the imperial kitchen and feed them to Fang Yue personally. The feelings between the two grew deeper and deeper as they spent time together.
On the other side of the desolate valley, the demon tribe was migrating in an orderly manner according to the agreement.
The tiger tribe's team was responsible for carrying the heavy loads, and their strong physique made the task go quite smoothly;
The wise men of the fox tribe kept reminding their tribe members of various precautions and reminded them to abide by the agreement with the human tribe.
The snake members who were good at setting up formations walked at the front of the team. As they moved forward, they observed the terrain around the desolate valley and thought about how to better set up a protective formation.
In the human world, masters sent by the Royal Guards and various martial arts factions established temporary strongholds around the Desolate Valley, keeping a close eye on the demon clan's every move.
At the same time, they also began to strengthen the fortifications, transporting large amounts of stone and wood to build solid walls and fences. They also buried rune stones containing spiritual power in key locations to enhance the overall defense capability.
However, beneath the seemingly calm surface, there are actually undercurrents.
In the deserted valley, a young man from the Tiger Clan complained to his companions with a look of dissatisfaction on his face: "Humph, when have we ever been so aggrieved in the demon race? Now that we have come to this human world, we have to be controlled everywhere by humans. Even when we move, they stare at us like we are prisoners. We really can't swallow this!"
His companion quickly pulled at his clothes and said in a low voice, "Keep your voice down. The elders have already agreed to these conditions. It is also for our demon race to escape the demon tide. Don't cause any more trouble."
The young man from the Tiger Clan swung his arms and said angrily, "What demon tide? At worst, we can go back to the demon world. It's better than being humiliated here."
At this time, a wise man from the fox tribe who happened to be passing by heard their conversation and hurried forward to scold them, "Shut up! You are so foolish. The demon world has been torn to pieces by the demon tide. Going back would be courting death. Cooperation with humans is the only hope for our demon tribe. Don't destroy the hope of the entire tribe because of a momentary impulse."
Although the tiger youth stopped talking, his face still showed an indignant look.
Meanwhile, in the temporary base of the human race, the soldiers of the Royal Guards were also discussing privately.
A soldier frowned and said, "Although these demons seem to be honest now, who knows what they are thinking. If one day they take advantage of our unpreparedness and stab us in the back, it will be terrible."
Another soldier nodded and agreed, "Yes, we must always be on guard and not be fooled by their appearance."
The commander of the Imperial Guard heard their conversation and came over and said seriously, "Stop mumbling here. Do your own job well and closely monitor the actions of the demon tribe. Report any abnormal situation immediately. If any mistakes are made due to your negligence, you will be punished by military law!"
The hatred between the two races was originally as deep as the sea, but now because of the approaching demon tide, they have been able to temporarily put aside their differences.
Naturally, there is no shortage of similar radical sentiments among the two ethnic groups.
However, due to the strict orders from the top leaders of the two tribes, a brief period of peace was maintained.
On these seemingly ordinary days, an evil organization hiding in the shadows is secretly planning how to stir up disputes between the demon race and the human race.
This evil organization is called "The Demonic Shadow Society". They attempt to weaken the defenses of the human world before the demonic tide arrives, so that the demonic tide can swallow up both the human world and the demon world, allowing them to reap the benefits.
The leader of the Demon Shadow Society, the old man in black robe, was discussing a plan with several of his confidants in a hidden cave. "Humph, although the human race and the demon race are now cooperating on the surface, they are actually full of suspicion. We only need to stir up trouble and make them kill each other." The old man in black robe laughed grimly.
One of the men asked, "Chief, where should we start?"
The old man in black robe pondered for a moment and said, "First, send people to spread rumors among the demons, saying that the human race is secretly planning to use the demons as cannon fodder when the demon tide arrives, so that the demons can consume the power of the demon tide first, and then the human race can reap the benefits."
"Yes, Chief. What about the human side?"
"On the human side, spread the word that the demons have ill intentions and have been secretly gathering forces in the Desolate Valley, preparing to launch a surprise attack on the human race and seize the resources of the human world before the demon tide arrives."
So, the members of the Demon Shadow Society began to act quietly. They disguised themselves as monsters, sneaked into the deserted valley, and quietly spread rumors among the monsters.
"Do you know? The human race has no good intentions at all. They brought us here just to send us to our deaths. When the demon tide comes, they will definitely push us out first." A member of the Demon Shadow Society deliberately said loudly at the place where the demons gathered.
This statement quickly caused an uproar among the demons, and some demons who were already dissatisfied with the human race became even more angry.
"I told you that the human race isn't that kind. We can't just sit there and wait for death!"
"That's right, we can't just sit there and wait for death, we have to strike first!"
Just as the demon tribe was incited by rumors and became outraged, the conspiracy of the Demon Shadow Society did not stop there.
Not only did they spread rumors, they also secretly sent assassins to create bloody massacres at the border between the demon race and the human race, in an attempt to completely intensify the conflict between the two races.
One night, near a human sentry post on the edge of the desolate valley, a miserable cry suddenly came.
When the human soldiers rushed over to check, they saw several demon corpses lying on the ground, and some damaged human defense facilities next to them. The scene was in a mess, and it looked like the demons had launched a surprise attack, but were counterattacked by the human soldiers.
The news quickly spread throughout the Desolate Valley and the human stronghold.
After hearing this, the demons became even more convinced of the human race's ill intentions and demanded revenge for their dead members.
"The human race is too cruel! We can't tolerate it anymore!" a demon warrior roared.
The human race also felt very wronged when facing the accusations of the demon race.
"This must be a deliberate provocation by the demon clan. We must not retreat!" a general of the Royal Guards said angrily.
As the misunderstanding and anger between the two sides continued to escalate, small-scale conflicts began to frequently break out around the Desolate Valley.
During a conflict, a demon patrol team met several human guards. The demon patrol team members were all furious, holding their weapons tightly. One of the demons shouted loudly: "Humans, you have killed my compatriots, today is the day you pay the price!"
The human guards were not to be outdone and drew their swords. One guard shouted, "Stop slandering us, the demons! It's obvious that you are the ones with bad intentions and are the ones provoking us!"
After that, the two sides drew their swords and instantly fell into a melee. The demons relied on their own demonic power and agility to launch a fierce attack on the human guards, while the human guards relied on a tight formation and sophisticated weapons to resist. For a while, the shouts of killing and the sounds of weapons clashing were intertwined, and the scene was in chaos.
In another place, several demon youths sneaked into a human supply camp under cover of night, trying to steal some supplies to "retaliate" against the human race. However, the human race was well prepared, and the traps in the camp were triggered, and the alarm sounded. The masters of various factions in the martial arts world quickly came and surrounded the demon youths.

"How dare you, little demon thieves, launch a sneak attack!" A Huashan Sect master's eyes widened with anger.
Although the demon youths were somewhat panicked, they still shouted stubbornly: "The human race is unkind, don't blame us for being unjust!"
The two sides immediately started fighting. The young demon used his magic to cause flying sand and rocks. The human masters then used their unique skills, including swords, palm techniques, and hidden weapons, to try their best to stop the destructive behavior of the young demon.
News of these small-scale conflicts continued to reach Fang Yue's ears. Regardless of the fact that his body had not yet fully recovered, he hurried to the Desolate Valley.
The spies of the Demon Shadow Society quickly passed the news that Fang Yue rushed to the Desolate Valley despite his injuries back to the organization. After hearing this, the old man in black robe had a gleam of viciousness in his eyes and sneered, "Fang Yue is too much of a nuisance and has repeatedly ruined my plans. If we can get rid of him while he is still injured, the conflict between the two tribes will no longer be resolved and will definitely fall into chaos. By then, we can reap the benefits."
Therefore, the old man in black robes immediately summoned several of his most capable and trusted assassins and ordered them, "You guys, sneak to the road that Fang Yue must pass through, find a suitable opportunity, and kill him in secret. Do not reveal your identity, and make sure to do it cleanly and neatly."
"Yes, Chief!" The killers answered in unison, then they flashed and disappeared into the darkness, rushing towards the direction of the desolate valley.
Fang Yue hurried on his way anxiously, knowing that if the conflicts could not be resolved as soon as possible, the plan of the two tribes to cooperate in resisting the demon tide would be completely ruined, and both the human world and the demon world would be doomed. But he had never expected that danger was quietly approaching him.
When Fang Yue reached a remote valley, the atmosphere around him suddenly became extremely depressing. Alarm bells rang in his heart, and his years of experience in the martial arts world made him instantly aware of something unusual.
"Hmph, you coward, why don't you show up?" Fang Yue, trying to support his body that had not yet recovered, tightly grasped the sword in his hand, and shouted loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, several dark shadows jumped out from behind the rocks on both sides of the valley. They were the assassins from the Demon Shadow Society. They were all masked, exuding a strong murderous intent, and attacked Fang Yue without saying a word.
The leading killer held a scimitar with a strange black light on the blade. He went straight for Fang Yue's throat and said viciously: "Fang Yue, today is the day you die!"
Although Fang Yue was injured, he had such high cultivation level that even if these killers were infected with demonic energy, their cultivation level was far higher than their realm.
It seemed that the killer who only had the cultivation level of a Grandmaster could actually burst out the combat power of a Grandmaster.
But for Fang Yue, these opponents were nothing even if he was seriously injured.
He immediately swung his sword to fight back, saying, "So it's you, the villains from the Demon Shadow Society again, trying to stir up a quarrel between the two tribes with such despicable means. I will deal with you first today!"
Other assassins also used their own unique skills. For a moment, hidden weapons, poisonous smoke, and strange spells all came towards Fang Yue. Fang Yue dodged and dealt with them with difficulty. His old injuries began to ache slightly due to the intense movement, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, but his eyes were firm and he had no intention of retreating.
"You think you can kill me like this? Dream on!" Fang Yue gritted his teeth and displayed his famous sword skills. The sword light was so bright that it temporarily forced back the killers.
But the killers did not give up. They exchanged glances with each other, changed their formation, and attacked Fang Yue again from different directions, trying to find a flaw in Fang Yue's defense.
Fang Yue knew that although the strength of these killers was not top-notch, they worked well together and their methods were vicious, so they should not be underestimated. He was very alert, and the long sword in his hand danced into a light curtain, blocking the hidden weapons and poisonous smoke. At the same time, he secretly gathered his spiritual power, preparing to give these killers a fatal blow.
When the two sides were in a stalemate, Fang Yue saw an opportunity and shouted: "Wind-breaking Style!" He was as fast as lightning and broke through the encirclement of the killers in an instant, with his long sword pointing directly at the throat of the leading killer. The killer was terrified and wanted to dodge but it was too late, he could only watch the long sword approaching.
However, just as the sword was about to touch the killer's throat, a dark shadow suddenly flashed out from the side and blocked Fang Yue's sharp sword. It turned out to be a hidden master of the Demon Shadow Society, who had been lurking in the dark, waiting for the opportunity to strike.
"Fang Yue, do you think it's so easy to succeed?" the hidden master said coldly.
Fang Yue's heart trembled. He could feel that the man in front of him was much stronger than those killers before him, and he was probably close to the core layer of the Demon Shadow Society.
"Hmph, no matter how many of you come, I will not let your conspiracy succeed." Fang Yue responded fearlessly.
At this time, the human royal guards and the demon patrol heard the noise here and were speeding over.
The assassins of the Demon Shadow Society realized that time was running out and they had to fight quickly, so they launched a more frenzied attack with various killing moves emerging one after another.
While Fang Yue was dealing with these attacks, he was also thinking about how to defeat the enemy.
He discovered that although the attacks of these killers were fierce, there was a tiny gap in their coordination. As long as he could seize this gap, he could break their formation and defeat them one by one. (End of this chapter)
