Chapter 101 Offense is the best defense!

Wanjian Mountain.

This is the mountain of the Heavenly Sword Sect, a major sect of the human race.

Their sect's patriarch, Chen Qinghe, was a top-tier expert among the human rhinoceroses of Hezhou, ranking among the top ten, and his cultivation had reached the terrifying Martial Emperor realm.

Xiniu Hezhou is adjacent to the eastern part of the Shiwan Mountain area, and Chen Qinghe was one of the initiators of this great battle.

He is also one of the vice leaders of the demon-slaying alliance.

The entire mountain was covered by a large array, rich in spiritual energy, like a fairyland.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the sect council hall within the Heavenly Sword was exceptionally heavy.

The one sitting at the head of the table was the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Not long ago, news of Hu Xiao killing the Qingyang Sect's patriarch with a single sword strike also reached them.

This was originally just a small matter.

A mere four-star Martial King is nothing to a true powerful figure like him.

Any one of his personal disciples is stronger than him.

But now, with a great war between humans and demons imminent, every small skirmish is like dancing on the edge of a knife.

Any event involving the human and demon races will have its impact magnified infinitely.

What's more, this time a four-star Martial King actually died at the hands of a demon beast that had just been promoted to Demon King.

For the entire human race, it was like being pinned to the ground and slapped repeatedly.

What a shame!

"Those useless fools launched a surprise attack on a newly promoted demon king, and ended up suffering a crushing defeat."

"This is utterly disgraceful to our human race."

"It's a good thing he's dead. If he weren't, I would have finished him off myself today."

The one speaking was the sect's Grand Elder.

His strength makes him a mainstay of the entire expeditionary force, an eight-star Martial King.

At this moment, he was so angry that his beard almost stood on end, and his face was extremely gloomy.

Seeing his anger, the people who had come to attend the meeting all lowered their heads and dared not speak, not even daring to breathe.

They were naturally aware of this matter, and they were furious when they found out.

It's important to understand that such a small strength before a major battle can significantly impact the morale of the army.

In a battle between two armies, if the morale of the opposing side drops first, then the entire battle has already been half lost.

Unexpectedly, those few good-for-nothings actually put themselves in someone else's shoes for their own selfish gain.

After a moment, he spoke coldly, continuing, "Are all the people dead, or did some survive?"

"Reporting to the Grand Elder," the disciple who came to deliver the message quickly bowed and said, "According to those who escaped back..."

"The only Martial King who escaped during the great battle was the patriarch of the Tianque Sect, but he was also seriously injured and has now fallen to the level of a one-star Martial King."

"Useless trash!" the elder shouted again.

"More trouble than it's worth."

"If I weren't currently tied up, I would definitely make a trip to his sect."

The crowd's expressions changed slightly upon hearing this. Everyone understood what this trip meant: to eliminate the other party and vent their anger.

After a moment, the Grand Elder took a deep breath and looked down with a solemn expression.

"Alright, that's the end of this matter. No further discussion is allowed."

"From this moment forward, no human sect shall launch an attack on the demon race without authorization."

"Make them all shut up."

"The army will set off in three months."

At this point, the elder's eyes darkened slightly.

For a moment, the air in the hall seemed to freeze.

His gaze swept over the crowd below, and everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

"If anyone dares to cause me any trouble at this critical juncture..."

"Don't blame me for being impolite to him."

"For the sake of victory in the war between the human and demon races, I don't mind personally making a trip to their east gate."

"Yes!" Everyone nodded in response.

End of the meeting.

As everyone left the council hall, they mentally cursed the ancestors of both the Qingyang Sect's patriarch and the Tianque Sect's patriarch for eighteen generations.

Because of the failure of these two good-for-nothings, they were scolded today, and anyone would feel resentful in their situation.

……

Tiger King City.

As before, Hu Xiao had Lu Ling collect a portion of the essence blood of all the demon soldiers and generals in his territory.

The power of the Myriad Spirits Array has now risen to a new level.

Xiong Er continued his search for female human cultivators.

Hu Xiao, on the other hand, stayed at home, continuing to spend time with his wife and children.

Just then, Batwing rushed over, a smile on his face.

"Good news, good news!"

"Your Majesty, I have just received some good news."

Hu Xiao was still holding Hu Ruyan in his arms.

Seeing Batwing approach, Hu Ruyan sweetly greeted, "Hello, Uncle Batwing."

"Little princess." Batwing looked at Tiger Ruyan with a smile, then turned to look at Tiger Roar.

"Your Majesty, I have just received news."

"Because of this human invasion, the Demon Emperor was very angry and issued an order to stop defending the pass and instead prepare to lead a large army out of the demon realm to fight on human territory."

"Oh?" Tiger Roar's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this.

"A war outside the Ten Thousand Mountains?"

"This is indeed good news."

"Yes!" Batwing nodded emphatically. "This way, we're no longer isolated and helpless."

Tiger Roar was overjoyed.

His Tiger Roar Demon Court is located on the edge of the demon realm, outside the checkpoints.

At first, Hu Xiao was worried that when a great war broke out between humans and demons, his Tiger King City would become the first place where humans would launch an attack.

Faced with the attack of the human army, even with the protective shield of the willow tree, they probably won't be able to hold out for long.

During this time, Hu Xiao was also thinking about how to resolve this matter.

He didn't want to use the Great Luo Shift Formation to move Tiger King City away unless absolutely necessary.

After all, this would mean he lost his foundation.

Just when he was at his wit's end, the Demon Emperor unexpectedly issued such an order, which relieved his immediate crisis.

Although it will have some impact, it is better than becoming a stumbling block on the path of the human race to attack the demon race.

So, in the following days, after the Demon King issued his decree, countless armies emerged from various checkpoints deep within the Ten Thousand Mountains.

At this moment, all the demon races began to take action, making full preparations for the great war between humans and demons.

As the demon army passed through, the demons also felt the urgency of the impending war between humans and demons.

During this period, Hu Xiao could often sense powerful auras passing through his demon court territory in Tiger King City.

As time went by, the number of demon armies gathering outside the Ten Thousand Mountains also increased.

Those chilling auras seemed to coalesce into an invisible, magnificent wall.

Even just looking at it from afar gives one a feeling of exhilaration.

"Is this the demon army?"

"Truly extraordinary."

Watching the roar of the demon army from afar, I was deeply shocked.
