These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

But at this moment, Nalan Jie said...

"I understand. In that case, there's no need to waste our time searching for them."

"But……"

"Do you have a solution?"

"No! Demon Lord, your subordinate obeys your command and will swear to be loyal to you to the death!"

Nalan Jie gave a cold laugh, then slowly said.

"Bring all the manpower back from the surrounding areas, including those tribes. Don't give them any more opportunities outside. Just guard the oasis and the city, and they will come to you on their own."

The subordinate left trembling with fear.

But Nalan Jie did not leave, and soon a voice came from the shadows on the other side.

"You seem very confident... Why not buy yourself some more time?"

Nalan Jie stared coldly at the shadows.

"You people from Feng Huating are now acting like cowards, trying to waste my time for no reason? This is a transaction, everyone understands, and I know what you're thinking, so stop with the pretense."

The voice laughed heartily.

"Hahahaha... Nalan Jie, don't make it sound so serious. We're all doing this for Shenzhou, for the new world that's about to arrive. Don't worry, we definitely won't let you down this time."

Nalan Jie turned around, looked at the void of darkness, and took a deep breath.

"It had better be that way, otherwise I'll snap your neck, no matter if you're the owner of Feng Huating or not... Yi Shuihan."

Chapter 151 An Old Friend Returns from Afar

"The Northern Desert! We can't even cross the Su River in Beixuan Prefecture, let alone the Yihua Palace and Xuanling Sect, who are currently entrenched in Beixuan Prefecture! Not to mention the Fenghua Court behind us! How can we possibly cross Beixuan Prefecture and reach the Northern Desert!"

Ran Xinxue brought almost everyone she could to Guang Shenzhou, gathering various sects, forces that had previously cooperated, and those with future cooperation intentions in Guang Shenzhou. The meeting was indeed very large.

There were so many that Ran Xinxue had difficulty recognizing them.

But there was no other way; all the hard work that Lu Qingyan, Lin Ruoyin, and I had done these past few days was for this moment.

Even the elderly Yuan Wei dragged his old bones around to persuade others, just to gather all possible forces.

As he expected, most of them did attend the meeting, but the meeting was almost a complete mess of arguments.

It's fine if everyone expresses their own opinions, but this time they've split into two factions.

Some decided to wait and see, while others, like the sect leader at the beginning, spoke out eloquently, believing that the matter was hopeless and vehemently opposing it.

It's not that they are particularly obliged or kind and don't want to see others die; it's just that it would be too ugly for them to be weak alone, while dragging more people down with them would make them seem more justified.

This is also when human nature is most vividly displayed.

Unable to contain herself, Lin Ruoyin stepped forward and said.

"Sect Leader Qiushan, although things seem difficult, we might be able to do it if we join forces. The urgency lies in the fact that once the Witch God is resurrected and they gather their strength, it will be the Northern Desert Demon Clan, the Feng Huating Clan, the entire power of the Northern Xuan Prefecture, the Witch Clan, and the Witch God himself! How can we withstand that? If we cannot dismantle the power of the Northern Xuan Prefecture and get close to the Northern Desert to stop their conspiracy, can you really survive?"

The sect leader's face turned red; he was clearly very excited.

"Miss Lin, let me ask you this too. Do all of us combined outnumber them?"

"not necessarily."

"They must be stronger than them, capable of overwhelming them?"

Lin Ruoyin bit her thin lips and shook her head.

"Since none of these conditions are met, isn't this just suicide? We have no way to quickly eliminate them and achieve our goal. The Witch God will still be resurrected, and we'll even lose manpower without achieving our objective. Won't we be even weaker and unable to put up a fight? Isn't this just suicide?"

The sect leader's words silenced many in the room. To be honest, they also felt a lot of pressure from the current situation, but what they felt even more fearful of the unknown was the fear of the unknown.

The Northern Desert is an area that even the sects of the Five Immortal Continents dare not easily venture into, let alone the Witch God, whose existence is only hinted at in historical records. These adversaries, whom they have never fought, undoubtedly form a huge chasm.

Lin Ruoyin took a deep breath and spoke directly.

"Is sitting and waiting to die not the same as waiting to die? What do you expect those people to do to us? They want to destroy the Five Immortal Continents, and you are still clinging to wishful thinking, believing that you can just wag your tails and beg for mercy when the time comes. But when you consider yourselves as ants, what value do you have to them!"

The other party also became angry.

"That's not right. Besides, even if they really did unify the Immortal Continent, wouldn't they need more people? Could they just kill us all?"

"So even if you survive, you'll live worse than dogs. In their eyes, you'll just be tools to be used. You won't have the high and mighty status you claim to have now. Is this the kind of lingering existence you want?"

"Lin Ruoyin, don't go too far!"

Lin Ruoyin's direct words immediately ignited everyone's anger.

Just then, someone pushed the door open and entered.

Everyone looked back and saw an old woman dressed plainly with a frail face walk in. Everyone stared at her, thinking she had gone to the wrong place.

However, behind her was a very young girl with an exceptionally beautiful face and an ethereal and stunning aura.

"If you all have any concerns, then we'll take the lead, and there shouldn't be any problems."

The old woman's first words silenced everyone present.

Then came the burst of laughter from the sect leader of Qiushan Sect.

"Madam, where are you from? Do you know what we're talking about?"

They clearly found the other party ridiculous, and even suspected that they might be a shill hired by the Yuanjian Sect.

But the old woman asked the other person a question in return.

"Then do you know who I am?"

Who are you?

Have you ever heard of the Polar Sun Palace?

The scene fell silent once again, with only a few gasps of surprise audible.

The offensive was quite successful. Facing those scattered tribes, Bai Youwei made full use of their manpower's mobility, making it impossible for the enemy to find them. When the enemy was tired, they would launch a surprise attack and achieve the effect of instantly defeating the enemy.

Despite some losses, they have been replenishing their manpower along the way, indicating that there are still quite a few descendants of the Garan tribe. After Bai Youwei's identity was announced to the entire Northern Desert, it had an immediate and overwhelming effect, and their numbers continued to grow. Their advance was very smooth, and now they have reached a position where they can see the oasis in the distance. They are quite close, which is just one step away for such a large group.

At this moment, the core elites gathered together in the huge camp.

First, He Ting reported on the current status of the team's supplies. It wasn't a small amount, but it wasn't too much either.

Next, Xiao Ziyi brought back information about the surrounding area.

"It seems that Nalan and his men have all returned to the Oasis City to prepare for defense. The scouts who returned said that the army is training day and night in the Oasis and constantly patrolling, so it can be said that there is no leak."

If they were stationary, they would indeed be easy to defeat one by one, but the current situation has created difficulties. This place is truly easy to defend and difficult to attack, especially since they have more supplies; attrition would be disadvantageous for us.

Bai Youwei frowned and asked.

"What's the situation back home?"

Xiao Ziyi replied, "There's been some activity in Beixuan Prefecture, it seems they're preparing to reinforce Beimo. We can't afford to be caught in a pincer movement, but now that they're so wary, it's really difficult to quickly take down Modu. Besides, we've recently seen quite a few cultivators, probably from Feng Huating. It's not going to be easy to conquer..."

Bai Youwei breathed a sigh of relief; the situation was not good.

At that moment, a figure lifted the curtain of the tent and walked in. Bai Youwei's eyes lit up. Seeing this young man appear seemed to make her feel a little more relaxed, no matter what the situation was. It was as if the pressure on her body was always relieved a little.

"Young Master Wei... is there any good news?"

In front of outsiders, Bai Youwei was still trying to avoid suspicion, but He Ting, Xiao Ziyi, and others could hardly contain their laughter. They only refrained from laughing out loud to give the woman face.

Wei Tu nodded and said in a low voice.

"According to reliable sources, the major sects of the Five Immortal Continents have joined forces and are heading towards the Northern Xuan Continent. This means we no longer need to worry about being attacked from both sides. Now, the only question is how to conquer the Demon Capital." Xiao Ziyi nodded thoughtfully.

"It is indeed good news, but the remaining problems are also the biggest... I will send someone to investigate in the near future to see what the situation is, but it is best not to be too optimistic."

So for the next ten days or so, Xiao Ziyi did indeed lead his men to constantly probe and probe inside and outside the oasis.

What he found troublesome was that the other side seemed to have given a death order to keep them out of the oasis, preventing them from obtaining resources while also delaying the deployment of their army to launch a decisive battle, preferring to remain in a defensive posture.

Time is being constantly compressed.

Wei Tu's feeling was getting worse, because he could clearly sense that further north of the oasis, behind the Nalan people blocking their way, a familiar, irrepressible stench of blood was growing stronger, a powerful and dangerous force brewing within them.

Clearly, the ritual to resurrect the sorcerer god is still underway, and has even reached a rather late stage.

His gaze was fixed on the direction of the wind and sand, sweeping across this desolate land.

Bai Youwei walked gently to the boy's side.

Bai Youwei appeared at the entrance to the platform and saw the boy leaning against the railing, lost in thought.

Looking at the boy, he seemed much calmer, more weathered, and more mature than before.

She said softly.

"Don't worry too much, things will always get better, you just need to be patient."

Wei Tu turned his head and nodded with a smile.

"Actually, it's fine, we're just enjoying the scenery."

Looking at the desert landscape, which hadn't really changed and wasn't particularly beautiful, Bai Youwei said softly, "If we can't conquer it after a long time, are you planning to go to Shanghai alone?"

Wei Tu was somewhat surprised that the other party said such a thing, because it was indeed his own idea. He didn't want these people to pay too much because of him. If there was no better way, it would be better for him to go to Shanghai alone instead of letting people die for no reason.

At least that way there's still a chance; otherwise, it will only lead to futile suicides and mistakes due to excessive haste, without any real effect.

"No……"

"Don't lie to me, I know your personality. But don't worry, I'm not here to stop you. I'm just telling you that if it really comes to that, I won't stop you. But until then, be patient. Avoid taking the most extreme measures if possible. I don't want anything to happen to you."

Wei Tu took a deep breath and reached out to pull the blushing woman into his arms.

He savored the scent of her hair and spoke softly.

“I know what I’m doing. Like you, I don’t want anything to happen to you.”

"Um……"

I wish to stay in this warm embrace forever, forever until eternity, until the end of the world.

Unfortunately, it was ultimately impossible to do so.

No one else could do it, yet it was faster than I imagined.

"Young Master Wei, you are so lucky to have beautiful women by your side wherever you go."
