Wu Dong: I, Lin Langtian, will not play a supporting role

The atmosphere of war preparation within the Qiankun Sect had reached its peak in the past few days.

Above the Qiankun Sect, countless beams of light streak across the sky every day, their overwhelming fighting spirit soaring into the heavens.

In a place like the Qiankun Continent, where conflict is constant, war is an extremely common occurrence. This has nothing to do with the distinction between justice and evil, or the law of the jungle; it is simply the naked law of the jungle.

Only when a new hegemon emerges on the continent and eliminates all rivals can true peace be achieved. Until then, war will be inevitable.

Silver Mist Palace.

Inside that main hall, many of the high-ranking members of the Silver Mist Palace were gathered.

At this moment, spiritual light condensed on the stone platform, transforming into an enormous and incredibly complex map of spiritual energy.

“Now all the kings of our Qiankun Sect have been mobilized, and the other vassal forces are also gathering their strength,” Jiang Yinlan said, gazing at the massive map.

Such a high-profile operation suggests that it was not kept secret from the forces in the Chaotic Domain. However, given the strength of the Qiankun Sect, there was no need for secrecy; they could simply send a large army to the border and intimidate others with their power.

"Then what is our Silver Mist Palace's attack route?" Mu Honglian asked from the side.

Jiang Yinlan narrowed her beautiful, long eyes slightly, and then her slender jade finger pointed to the northeast direction of the map, finally stopping at a sinister, dark spot of light.

At this moment, to the left and right of the point of light, were three cold, pitch-black characters.

The Ten Thousand Demons Sect!
"The Ten Thousand Demons Sect?" Mu Honglian and the others around exclaimed in surprise, and then Huo Yuan cautiously asked.

"Palace Master, the Ten Thousand Demons Sect is quite famous in the Chaotic Domain. Its sect leader, Old Demon Geng, has already reached the level of a fifth-grade supreme being. Would it be too risky to target them?"

Generally, such wars of conquest are mostly about plunder, and plunder naturally starts with the easiest things.

However, it is clear that the Ten Thousand Demons Sect is not among the easiest.

"No gain without risk." Jiang Yinlan smiled faintly and said, "The Ten Thousand Demons Sect has acted domineeringly over the years, invading the territory of my Qiankun Sect several times and seizing countless Supreme Spiritual Liquids."

This time, we will take back everything they took away.

"As for that old devil Geng, you don't need to worry about him. I will deal with him myself."

Under Lin Langtian's leadership, Yinlan Palace is now thriving, like a rising star. However, although it has reversed its past decline, Yinlan Palace still has a weakness: its foundation is shallow and its resources are scarce.

If the Ten Thousand Demons Sect could be destroyed, the Silver Mist Palace would not only be overfed, but the Silver Mist Guard would also be greatly strengthened.

Huo Yuan and the others exchanged glances, but seeing that Jiang Yinlan had made up her mind, they respectfully agreed.

Regardless, their own palace master is the Grand Elder's personal disciple and possesses considerable strength. Combined with the strength of their Silver Mist Palace, the chances of defeating a Myriad Demons Sect are not small.

"Everyone, get ready. Tomorrow, our Silver Mist Palace will officially set off!"

"Yes!"

Huo Yuan and the others responded in unison, and then they all left. Lin Langtian also cupped his hands to Jiang Yinlan, and then got up and left.

……

When the next day arrived, the fighting spirit that had been simmering and boiling in the Heavenly Realm for several days finally reached the critical point of explosion.

The entire sky was filled with countless figures, like dark clouds, constantly heading towards the teleportation arrays in various parts of Qiankun Heaven.

The war had clearly begun at this point.

All the kings began to take action. This war of conquest was the best opportunity for them to plunder resources and strengthen themselves. Moreover, the sect leader had said in advance that they would not have to hand over any of the plundered goods. This undoubtedly made the kings' eyes even redder.

Meanwhile, in front of the main hall of the Silver Mist Palace, Jiang Yinlan, clad in silver armor, with her long hair casually tied up, looked dashing and heroic. Her pair of long, slender legs revealed a breathtaking beauty at this moment.

Her beautiful eyes swept over the Silver Mist Guards, who were as white as silver, without saying a word. She simply raised her jade hand and then suddenly swung it down.

"Silver Mist Guards, move out!"

"Yes!"

A unified, thunderous shout immediately rang out.

Jiang Yinlan, Lin Langtian, Mu Honglian and others took the lead and soared into the sky, transforming into streaks of light that swept across the heavens.

Behind them, a vast expanse of silver light, carrying overwhelming fighting spirit, followed closely.

Qiankun Sect, located in Liaoyang City in the northeast.

This city of Liaoyang is located on the border of the Qiankun Sect.

When Lin Langtian led the Silver Mist Guards to Liaoyang City through the teleportation array, he saw the solemn scene that filled the entire city.

Smoke and fire filled the city.

Light and shadow occasionally streaked across the sky, creating a chaotic scene that was clearly different from the bustling cities within the Qiankun Sect.

Some of the city's guards discovered the Silver Mist Guards at this moment. Immediately, a figure of light swept through the city and transformed into a human figure.

"Your subordinate, Li Liang, the city lord of Liaoyang, greets King Yinlan!"

The newcomer revealed himself to be a middle-aged man, who was now respectfully bowing to Jiang Yinlan and saying...

Jiang Yinlan nodded slightly and asked, "How is the battle situation in this area?"

"Some time ago, the Chaotic Domain kept sending troops to attack, but since the Sect Master issued the war of conquest, the Chaotic Domain has retreated."

"Our people are now launching a counterattack, and both sides are constantly clashing within tens of thousands of miles," Li Liang said respectfully.

"However, thousands of miles to the northeast lies the territory of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, so our people dare not venture too deep."

With the strength of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, it is enough to rival the power of the various kings of the Qiankun Sect. Therefore, if the kings do not take action, the other vassal forces of the Qiankun Sect will naturally not dare to provoke the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.

"Pass down the order: all troops in this area must converge on the Ten Thousand Demons Sect," Jiang Yinlan said calmly.

Li Liang was startled, and then cautiously asked, "Is King Yinlan going to attack the Ten Thousand Demons Sect? That Old Demon Geng is not easy to deal with."

"Go ahead, I'll deal with that old devil Geng myself." Jiang Yinlan waved her hand, her tone leaving no room for doubt.

"Yes!"

Li Liang dared not say anything more, immediately clasped his hands in agreement, then swooped down from the sky and entered the city lord's mansion, where he began to disseminate the news through special communication channels.

"go!"

Jiang Yinlan acted decisively and without any hesitation. She turned around and sped off towards the northeast, with the Yinlan Guards immediately following her with murderous intent.

……

The Plains of Ten Thousand Demons. This is the point where the Qiankun Sect and the northeastern region of the Chaotic Domain meet. As the two behemoths began their war, this vast plain was also engulfed in flames of war.

Troops from both sides clashed in various places, fighting, ambushing, and annihilating each other back and forth. The fierce battle directly caused the world to be shrouded in violent spiritual fluctuations.

Although Jiang Yinlan's goal was the Ten Thousand Demons Sect from the beginning, she was clever and did not rush in headfirst. Instead, she slowed down as she gradually ventured deeper into the Ten Thousand Demons Plain.

At the same time, Lin Langtian led the Silver Mist Guards alone, and in this area, with Lin Langtian's strength and the assistance of the Silver Mist Guards, they basically swept through the area.

Therefore, wherever the Silver Mist Guards went, the forces from the Chaotic Domain that were still putting up a fight were almost completely routed.

Under Lin Langtian's leadership, the Silver Mist Guard swept through dozens of cities in just one day, establishing a distinguished reputation.

Thus, as the Silver Mist Guards advanced towards the Myriad Demons Sect on the second day, more than a dozen other forces surrounded the Myriad Demons Sect from other directions.

It was under this terrifying encirclement that Lin Langtian led the Silver Mist Guards and finally stepped into the territory of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.

……

A towering black mountain stood before us, like a giant, its dark body exuding a cold and eerie aura.

Lin Langtian stood in front of the Silver Mist Guard, squinting as he gazed at the colossal mountain before him.

This is the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.

Jiang Yinlan raised her beautiful eyes, and her clear yet icy voice echoed throughout the world: "You've already hidden yourself for so long, there's no point in hiding any longer, is there?"

"Hehe, King Yinlan, your presence is an honor. I am truly sorry for not welcoming you properly."

Just as Jiang Yinlan finished speaking, a hoarse and chilling voice suddenly rang out in the world, sending shivers down one's spine.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling black light streaked out from the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, and finally, in that dazzling light, countless figures appeared in mid-air.

Powerful fluctuations of spiritual energy erupted without reservation at this moment.

In an instant, even the heavens and earth lost their color.

In the sky, more than half of the figures were filled with spiritual energy that was completely incompatible with the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.

Judging from their appearance, they are not from the Ten Thousand Demons Sect. Clearly, the Ten Thousand Demons Sect has recruited quite a few helpers.

Lin Langtian wasn't too surprised by this, and he looked towards the very center.

There stood a gaunt old man, his body hunched over, his hair thinning, resembling a very old man. But in his dark eyes, a sinister glint would occasionally flash, clearly indicating that he was not someone to be trifled with.

This person is most likely the sect leader of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, Old Demon Geng.

On the Qiankun Sect's side, many forces were slightly agitated upon seeing that withered and cold figure.

After all, Geng Laomo of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect has quite a reputation, and in some respects, he has even surpassed Jiang Yinlan. As a junior, Jiang Yinlan doesn't have many noteworthy achievements.

"I've long heard that Queen Yinlan is stunningly beautiful, and seeing her today, I can confirm that the rumors are true. I just don't know why Queen Yinlan has set her sights on my Ten Thousand Demons Sect. Does she think I'm a pushover?" Old Demon Geng said in a sinister tone, his gloomy gaze fixed on Jiang Yinlan.

At the same time, as Old Demon Geng finished speaking, a dark demonic mist immediately emanated from his body, unleashing a terrifying pressure that made Old Demon Geng appear sinister and unapproachable.

Clearly, this old devil Geng wanted to give them a hard time.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yinlan simply smiled faintly, then took out her silver longsword and slowly stepped forward.

With each step she took, a clear sword cry resounded throughout the world, and terrifying sword energy permeated the air, faintly appearing as if a giant net of sword energy had formed in the sky behind her.

The sword energy rang out with a clang, completely severing the oppressive aura emanating from Old Demon Geng.

"A perfect divine technique?"

Countless gazes from all directions were fixed on Jiang Yinlan, and their expressions all changed.

Although many people know that Jiang Yinlan is the disciple of the Grand Elder of the Qiankun Sect, they do not know that she has actually mastered a perfect divine technique.

When Old Demon Geng sensed Jiang Yinlan's sword energy, his pupils contracted slightly, and the expression on his face finally became more serious.

Although Jiang Yinlan was only at the early stage of the fifth-grade supreme realm, with this perfect divine technique, even he, a late-stage fifth-grade supreme realm cultivator, would feel a headache.

"King Yinlan, are you really planning to fight to the death with my Ten Thousand Demons Sect?" Old Demon Geng said hoarsely, "You should know that this kind of fighting won't do you much good either."

Although we are currently at war, there are many targets far better than our Ten Thousand Demons Sect.

"Enough with the nonsense. If you don't want to fight, just surrender," Jiang Yinlan said calmly.

"What a loud tone!"

Old Demon Geng's expression turned cold, and then his gaze shifted to Lin Langtian behind Jiang Yinlan.

"I've recently heard that your Silver Mist Palace has been causing quite a stir in the Qiankun Sect. Are you so confident because you're relying on this new commander?"

"Whether it is or not, your sect will know once you try." Seeing Old Demon Geng bring up Lin Langtian, Jiang Yinlan's lips slowly curved into a smile.

Seeing Jiang Yinlan's confident demeanor, Geng Laomo's expression darkened.

Through his brief encounter with Jiang Yinlan, his keen eye naturally revealed that this King Yinlan was not merely a figurehead relying on a good master, but a person of great talent and high aspirations.

However, the new commander of Yinlan Palace was clearly no ordinary person to have won over Jiang Yinlan, this favored daughter of heaven, in such a short time.

Thinking of this, Old Demon Geng snorted coldly, then waved his hand indifferently.

Boom!

Behind him, a low roar suddenly rang out from within the dark demonic light, and then the black light slowly dissipated.

An army clad in gray-black iron armor appeared silently behind Old Demon Geng.

As this army appeared, a sinister aura emanated from them, and beneath their black armor, it seemed as if there were pairs of cold, sinister eyes.

“That’s the Ten Thousand Demons of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, a well-known army,” Mu Honglian said solemnly from behind Lin Langtian.

Lin Langtian nodded slightly. Having gathered intelligence beforehand, he knew that this group of Ten Thousand Demons was probably no weaker than the Silver Mist Guards in terms of combat strength.

At that moment, Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes, because he saw a figure slowly walking out from the very front of the army.

The figure was dressed in gray-black clothes, and his face was covered with dark, demonic patterns, giving him a sinister air.

"You must be Lin Langtian, the new leader of Yinlan Palace. I am Geng Yan, the deputy leader of Wanmo Sect, and also the leader of Wanmo Clan."

The man named Geng Yan looked at Lin Langtian, the demonic markings on his face flashing with dark light. After greeting him, he suddenly laughed in a sinister and eerie way.

"Commander Lin, are you prepared to die?" (End of Chapter)
