Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A truly chaotic situation had descended over the world!
However, Chu Yunfan was a little curious. Since the Grand Commandant was in Zhenyao, then who was the master of the marine folks, Hus, and barbarians in the south to suppress these restless foreign tribes and prevent them from taking advantage of the situation?
“Chaos This is a chaotic world where all lives are in misery. However, it might not be bad for us!” Chu Yunfan said. Only in troubled times was the best opportunity to rise. The Destiny Sect should know by now that Jun Tianci and the others died in my hands, but they probably don’t have time to find trouble with me now. It’s enough time for me to grow!”
In such chaotic times, many people did not have the time to free themselves. Instead, they became his protective umbrella.
“Let’s return to the Flying Celestials first!” Chu Yunfan suggested.
Although Tang Siyu was worried about the situation at Serene Immortal Mountain, it was not safe for her to run around alone. Even though she was at the peak Domain Stage, she was still not safe in this chaotic world.
The two of them moved quickly, and soon, the Flying Celestials was in front of them.
However, just like in the Imperial City, the endless demon army surrounded the Flying Celestials, and all kinds of battles raged on. The elite army of the Flying Celestials was fighting with the demon army, but more troops were sent to various places.
The various armies of the demons burned, killed, and plundered the continent where the Flying Celestials was located. They did all kinds of evil, killing countless living beings and causing countless lives to be plunged into misery.
These were the roots of the Flying Celestials’ strength, and they were also the roots of the Flying Celestials’ continuous strength.
How could they allow these demons to wantonly kill and destroy?
Thus, the Flying Celestials sent out troops to confront the demons.
However, compared to the battle in the Imperial Capital, it was undoubtedly insignificant.
Chu Yunfan didn’t care about these small and big matters. Instead, he went straight back to the Flying Celestials.
At this moment, a group of people was having a meeting in the Flying Celestials. They were all the true rulers of the Flying Celestials.
Other than Sect Master Situ Xuan, there was also a large group of Domainian Grand Elders. Divine Treasurez did not have the qualifications to enter this battle. Even though they were all Grand Elders, there was a huge difference in status between them.
At this moment, the Flying Celestials’s foundation was fully displayed. They usually didn’t reveal their strength, but now, they could casually gather over a hundred Domainians. Among them, nearly ten of them were powerful peak Domainians.
The leader was Situ Xuan.
Other than Situ Xuan, Huangfu Longhao, Chu Hongcai, and the others who had displayed astonishing talent among the younger generation were also present.
Other than that, the Golden Roc, the Sea Dragon, the Sky Devourer Flaming Sparrow, and the Dragon-Headed Crocodile were all present.
Although they were not originally from the Flying Celestials, they followed Chu Yunfan. Many of them had been subdued by Chu Yunfan, so there was no problem with their loyalty.
Moreover, these were all Supreme Youths. Joining the Flying Celestials would allow the Flying Celestials’ foundation to rise to the top of the various large factions in an instant.
Once these people all advanced to the King Stage, the Flying Celestials would also become the most powerful sect in a single leap.
If one of them could break through to the King Stage, that would be even more amazing.
Facing these Supreme Youths, the Flying Celestials naturally had no reason to push them away.
Other than that, there were also many ancient prodigies that the Flying Celestials had acc.u.mulated over the years. At this moment, they had all stepped into Domain Stage or even the peak Domain Stage.
It was just that compared to these Supreme Youths, they weren’t that outstanding.
“I called everyone here today for one thing, and that is to discuss how to repel the attack of the demons!” Situ Xuan said, “However, we didn’t expect that there would be such a chaotic situation. The demons descended from the sky, and the foreign tribes in all directions are also restless. We can’t let them continue to kill. The commoners are the foundation of our sect. If we let the demons continue to kill, our foundation will be seriously shaken!”
“There’s nothing we can do. The Central Plains has entered a state of emergency, and we can’t find any reinforcements even if we want to. We’re still doing fine, but some of the weaker factions have already been destroyed by the demons. Otherwise, we’ve already become their hatchet men and minions!” a Grand Elder replied gloomily.
Now, let alone looking for reinforcements, they had even become the target of many factions. However, if they could find someone, they would definitely do so. It was just that they could not find anyone to ask for help.
“The most important thing now is to stop the demons from destroying the whole land. Except for a part of our forces who need to stay in the Flying Celestials, the rest of you should lead your troops to pacify all the demons in the nearby provinces!” Situ Xuan said, “However, if you can’t win, don’t force yourself. Retreat immediately. What we lack the most now is time!”
Everyone naturally understood Situ Xuan’s words. This made them sigh. If the Flying Celestials had a King guarding it, they would not be in such a sorry state.
A single King could easily defeat these demon armies. At that level, ordinary armies were useless. They could only serve as food for such experts.
For example, the Destiny Sect, the the Virtuous Academy, and the Great Change Faith all had Kings guarding them. Even if such masters were not around, they could leave enough backup.
Of course, the Flying Celestials had some backup plans left behind by the founder of the sect. However, unless it was a life-and-death battle, they wouldn’t use those methods.
This was the difference between having a King guarding the place and not.
Situ Xuan’s meaning was obvious. He wanted to stall for time until Huangfu Longhao and the others could advance to the King Stage. That would be the time for them to truly counterattack.
Although it was very, very difficult to advance to the King Stage, the advancement of these Supreme Youths was much easier than for others.
Moreover, the Supreme Youths were all people with the emperor physiques. Advancing to the King Stage was only a matter of time.
What they lacked was time.
In fact, the entire Grand Xia was thinking the same thing. Now, with the appearance of various ancient prodigies, the humans had welcomed countless years of foundation in one go. All of them would shine in this era.
Originally, many people were worried that the compet.i.tion between the kings might collapse the world. However, at this time, they all turned into expectations. They did not know if the compet.i.tion between the kings would collapse the world, but if these Supreme Youths did not break through, the humans would be destroyed. This was something that was close at hand.
