Chapter 1: The situation is sinister

The Demon Tribulation Pass fell into the hands of the Great Demon of the Bitter Cold Domain in the Extreme North, which was equivalent to sending half of the Dark Domain to the fangs and claws of the beast demon. Especially when the demon robbery is closed, the demons dance wildly, and the demonic spirit is soaring.

At the beginning, many beasts and demons were still under the constraints of the leader, and they were stationed in the Demon Tribulation Pass. But as time passed, discipline slackened. They are beasts that crisscross the mountains and wilderness, and they don't care so much. Only a month later, a large number of beast demons began to rush out of the Demon Tribulation Pass and wreak havoc in the hinterland of the Netherworld. At the beginning, the big demon of the Demon Tribulation Pass was still restrained. But over time, even they themselves joined in.

All of a sudden, half of the Netherworld was ravaged by beast demons. The white bones are exposed in the wild, there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles, and the white bones and dripping blood have turned Youyue into a vast slaughtering field. A large number of people died tragically, and those who survived could only leave their hometowns in a hurry and move closer to the sect station of the Youyue Sect. In their hearts, only the Youyue Sect, which had gathered a large number of soul martial arts, could truly save them.

But where did they ever think that the interior of the Youyue Sect, even the top level of the Youyue Sect, was now in an extremely unstable state.

In the Lingyun Hall of the main hall of the Youyue Sect, the current elder group was discussing the current situation. Previously, Xuyue had officially ascended the throne as the sect master, and then arranged a grand funeral for Lan Yue. It's just that Lan Yue's corpse maybeβ€”just maybeβ€”is still in the Demon Tribulation Pass, which has to be said to be a huge pity.

Lan Yue, who was in the position of the sect master, looked depressed. looked at the new group of elders with uneven strength, and sighed that the original scenery was no longer there. Today's elder group is headed by Xuyue, followed by Youda, Chuxiong, Mi Hong, Arc Han, Xilan, Yuqi, and Ji Yu.

Among the eight people, only the Great Protector Demon Da has advanced to the realm of the Eight Rings Great Demon. For the rest, Xuyue naturally can't be compared with the previous Lan Yue, Chu Xiong and Ji Yu's strength is even worse, and the new hall master of the third hall is not as good as the old hall master. It can be said that for thousands of years, the elder group of the Youyue Sect has not been as weak as it is today.

"You've been busy these days. Xuyue's opening remarks were rare to be verbose, and then he went straight to the point, "But the current situation is still not optimistic." Gather all of you, that is, to see the approximate plan. Now that my Youyue Sect is in ruins, all decisions have to be made carefully!"

After speaking, she subconsciously looked at Chu Xiong. Recently, Chu Xiong has been giving advice on many things, and it seems that he has developed a sense of dependence on this younger brother.

Chu Xiong was at ease, and motioned to the master of the third hall to express his opinion first. For Chu Xiong, an upstart, and an upstart shrouded in the aura of many great achievements, the master of the third hall did not dare to despise it. Mi Hong first said: "From the perspective of his subordinates, there is a great demon in the Bitter Cold Domain in the Extreme North over there in the Demon Tribulation Pass, and there is a Star Han Sect in the adjacent Ji Domain that covets it, and even the Star Soul Hall may not have any good intentions for us. Therefore, the subordinates believe that the existing situation should be stabilized first and recuperated behind closed doors for a period of time. ”

So, the other two hall masters also nodded yes. Even a few other people felt that this was reasonable.

Sure enough, it was the woman's opinion, Chu Xiong sighed. He was also suddenly embarrassed to find that there was only one man in this elder group. Presumably, when he first took office at the meeting of the Elder Council, Dongqiong would have been a little embarrassed. This Youyue Sect is really a woman's world.

Although this opinion is unstable, it does not solve the practical problem. On the contrary, the situation can only get worse. Chu Xiong immediately said, "Recuperate, such a heavy loss, I don't think it will be possible to completely recover in twenty or thirty years." And with our current strength, will the hostile forces of all sides let us live in peace?"

That's what I'm saying. Money can be earned again if it is lost, but people cannot be resurrected after death. The soul martial arts above the four stars of the sect and the big demons above the four rings have lost more than half. To cultivate so many masters, it is impossible without the efforts of one generation.

"Also, the great demon of the Bitter Cold Domain in the extreme north occupies the Demon Tribulation Pass, and can rush to the bottom of the Heavenly Peak at any time. Although we defeated a group before, the other party's Zhu Yan and other big demons did not appear. Once these ultimate strengths surface, we can only rush into battle. And if the Xinghan Sect takes the opportunity to attack, how can we deal with it, can we divide the little strength we have into two ways and attack left and right?"

The words made everyone's hearts cold. If the situation Chu Xiong said appeared, the Youyue Sect would indeed not be able to deal with it.

"In addition, the old sect master fell into the Demon Tribulation Pass, but we didn't care about it, and the people of the world will inevitably laugh at it!"

Lan Yue died in the Demon Tribulation Pass, although the body is still there, but if Xuyue, as a daughter, pretends not to know, she will be ashamed of the world. In this way, the reputation of the Youyue Sect is even weaker, and at the same time, it is equivalent to exposing the major flaw of self-exposure of insufficient strength.

After hearing this, Xuyue shook greatly. Even other people who originally disagreed with each other felt that Chu Xiong was right. "However, if we march towards the Demon Tribulation Pass, are we sure? What if the Star Han Sect is sneaking up on us from the west?"

Chu Xiong smiled: "The root of everything is on the side of the Star Soul Palace. ”

"Do you want to ask the Star Soul Hall for help?" it can't be!" Xuyue shook her head, "You said first that the Star Soul Hall was watching the battle between us and the Star Han Sect. Letting those old foxes help us is tantamount to fighting with a tiger. ”

Hearing the words "old fox", Yuqi coughed, and Xuyue was immediately a little embarrassed - forgetting that Youda and Yuqi were the real foxes. "I didn't say anything about you, Dese!" Xuyue glanced at Yuqi, who smiled and didn't say anything. Yuqi, this girl is a narrow ghost, unlike other people's demons, she doesn't care at all. Of course, the reason why Xuyue said Yuqi so bluntly was because she faintly regarded her as her brother and daughter-in-law. In fact, too.

Chu Xiong said with a smile: "The reinforcements from the Star Soul Hall can't come, but they still ask for help." His Star Soul Hall is the Holy Land of Soul Martial Arts in the world, and Tai Jia is the leader of the Soul Martial Arts in the world, so on the surface, he naturally has to consider the life and death of the Soul Martial Arts and all living beings in the world. Once we ask the Star Soul Hall for help because of the expulsion of the Extreme North Bitter Cold Domain Beast Demon, the Star Soul Hall will at least have to take a stand. ”

"What's the use of expressing a statement, it's not real at all. Yuqi clenched her small fists, this violent woman has always only known how to solve problems by force.

"Who said it was useless to express one's position?" Chu Xiong said, "We can at least ask His Highness the Star Soul to order: all sects put the overall situation first and fully support us in expelling the beast demons. In this way, Xinghanzong also had to entertain on the surface. Otherwise, the Star Han Sect would not give face to the Star Soul Palace. Although it can't be foolproof, it is at least a major constraint on the Xinghan Sect. ”

"The Star Han Sect didn't dare to act without permission, and the Star Soul Hall itself was even more embarrassed to take the opportunity to do it. So, we just need to deal with the pressure of the Demon Tribulation Pass with all our might. ”

As soon as Chu Xiong said this, everyone's hearts suddenly brightened up. Youda laughed, "That's what it means." As long as the Star Soul Hall does not secretly stumble, and the Star Han Sect does not sneak attack from behind, we can still fight against the demons in the Bitter Cold Region of the Extreme North. ”

Arc Han shook his head and said, "Great Protector, this may not be, right? According to the information we have discovered, the number of big demons above the fourth ring in the Demon Tribulation Pass is more than our soul martial arts above the four-star level. As for the number of seven-ring and eight-ring demons, they are far beyond ours. Because on our side, there is only one of you, the Great Dharma Protector. ”

Chu Xiong said with a smile: "Don't forget, in the Demon Tribulation Pass, the strength of all beast demons is forbidden by the ancient heavenly martial arts, and they will all drop to a great realm." Note that this is an overall decline. And the main force on our side is the soul martial arts, which is not subject to this restriction. In this way, we have a slight advantage in strength. ”

This is also true! The Demon Tribulation Pass has been in the northeast of the Soul Martial Realm for thousands of years, doesn't it rely on this?

After setting a basic strategy, Xuyue immediately sent a solemn request to the Star Soul Hall in the name of the sect master, asking the Star Soul Hall to help the Youyue Sect jointly expel the beast demons, so that the people in the world are too safe and stable. Xuyue even seriously said that if the Youyue Sect was defeated by the other party, the big demons might use the Demon Tribulation Pass as an exit and drive straight into the hinterland of the Nine Domains. At that time, the disaster will spread to several other large domains. The words are so serious, in fact, they are offering prices all over the sky, so that the Star Soul Hall will have more room for bargaining. These are all Chu Xiong's meanings.

As Chu Xiong expected, a few days later, the Star Soul Hall sent a message with a flying eagle, saying that it was not capable of sending a powerful soul martial force to help for the time being, and at the same time listed a lot of reasons, so that the Youyue Sect could understand.

Since he is unwilling to send troops, he needs to at least show a supportive attitude, otherwise it will be in vain as a soul martial saint, and Taijia's face will be lost. Therefore, the Star Soul Hall said: It will ask the major sects to temporarily abandon the feud with the Youyue Sect and fully support the Youyue Sect to expel the beast demon; if other sects take the opportunity to attack the Youyue Sect, it will be to ignore the future of the soul martial arts and the lives of the people in the world, and the soul martial arts in the world can attack them together.

The wording of the last sentence is already quite powerful, at least it has achieved the effect that Chu Xiong hoped. Of course, the "other sects" mentioned by the Star Soul Hall are actually aimed at the Star Han Sect, but it is difficult to say clearly. Presumably, Xing Hanzong also understands this, and it is bound to be greatly restrained.

"Taijia's old treacherous and cunning guy seems to have fallen into the trap of your 'little treacherous and cunning'!" Seeing that the outcome of the matter was almost the same as Chu Xiong's expectation, Xuyue made a rare joke. Of course, the rest of the elder group also admitted that Chu Xiong had a good grasp of the situation.

Unexpectedly, Chu Xiong smiled and said, "Presumably, the eyes of Taijia and others can see our intentions at a glance." But all we want is an empty promise, nothing more. They don't need to send a single soldier in the Star Soul Palace, nor do they need to spend a tael of gold, and at the same time, they can maintain the image of their soul martial leader, which is beneficial and harmless, why don't they do it?"

"Emotionally, you and Taijia are just pretending tacitly!" Yuqi smiled, "No wonder when the old sect master was here before, many decisions were mysterious, but there were no leaks afterwards." It seems that you conspirators think differently than we do. ”

dared to mention Lanyue so bluntly in front of Xuyue, it is estimated that it will be Yuqi, a heartless girl. Fortunately, there is no slander, and Xuyue also laughed at it, but she sighed in her heart: There are some things that she is indeed not as careful as her mother's calculations, and the family is old and like a treasure. However, Chu Xiong is younger than herself, where did she get so many fancy intestines? How did she know that Chu Xiong's age and experience combined, he was older than an old fox.

Ji Yu, who had not spoken much, said at this time: "In this way, our outer sect should also prepare well. The strength of the single body is not good, but fortunately, there are many people. ”

The strength of the outer sect was already weak, but now that it has experienced a civil strife, its strength has declined even more, no wonder Ji Yu is a little worried.

Chu Xiong said: "Don't worry, I still have to go to the Tower of Babel." And this time, it may take a month, hehe. ”

Everyone didn't understand, but Youda and Yuqi understood: he was going to ask his mother for some things, especially about the Great Demon Zhu. That Zhu Yan is a genuine eight-ring demon, and it is very likely to be a medium eight-ring, which cannot be ignored. A hundred years ago, it was his mother who beat Zhu Yan half to death, and even his soul fell into a deep sleep. Among them, there must be some experience to be learned.

"By the way, how is the trial in the East Vault? and the Star Han Sect Star Hidden Pavilion Master Gu Yin, who was captured by us, still doesn't say a word?" Chu Xiong suddenly asked. Before leaving, he always wanted to figure it out. Especially the enemy of Dongqiong, his state is the most worthy of Chu Xiong's attention.
