“Even so, the real threat to the Human Race was the Hundred Clans’ Great Army backing Chiyou, with the Chi You Clan merely serving as the vanguard.

“It was because Chiyou faced the Human Race early on with uninterrupted success that the Hundred Clans decided to thoroughly follow Chiyou, intending to eradicate the Human Race a second time.

“Therefore, even in ancient times, Chiyou himself was just a tribal leader; now the Hundred Clans are scattered like sand, their vitality constantly being depleted by us, and it’s not easy for the Western Sect to recreate the peril of the ancient Human Race.”

Zi Yao reflected briefly, then said slowly: “I actually think that the Western Sect’s meticulous plotting must have another purpose.”

Li Dazhi asked, “What purpose?”

Zi Yao replied: “This will depend on what the Western Sect does next.”

Li Ping’an said: “Dad, please go outside and take control of the situation; the Holy Mother Palace’s assembly will proceed as normal shortly.”

“Alright, got it!”

Li Dazhi rose hastily to leave, cursing under his breath about how the Western Sect really wasn’t worth anything, and so on.

Guilingling arrived at the place with the Jinling Saint Mother and Shiji, asking what they could do to help.

Li Ping’an asked them to rest for now, while he closed his eyes to recuperate and sought a solution to the current trouble.

Before long, Immortal Taiyi, Yu Ding, and Huanglong, the three Immortals, arrived together, not disturbing Li Ping’an, and stood by waiting.

The Jinling Saint Mother looked at these three ‘junior brothers’ with a somewhat unfriendly expression;

However, Immortal Taiyi remained refined and cultured, continuing his silent meditation.

Across the East Continent, the winds surged and people were in an uproar everywhere; even in front of the Holy Mother Palace, there was a bit of disturbance, with a group of Qi Cultivators loudly calling for an expedition to the West.

The Immortal Palaces where Li Ping’an was located gradually became quiet.

The Enlightened Masters of Chan and Jie sipped tea and chatted, Jie Sect waiting for Li Ping’an to ask for help, Chan Teaching waiting for Li Ping’an to make a statement.

The Jinling Saint Mother had it all figured out.

As soon as Li Ping’an squeaked a word and agreed to give enough Heavenly Dao merits, she would turn her head and call for a thousand or eight hundred great Immortals burdened with karma to help stabilize the fortune of Jie Sect.

…

Outside the main world, within a distant minor heavenly domain.

A dark rift appeared in the sky, from which several streaks of light fell, crashing into the sea below.

Shortly afterwards, several figures appeared in an underground palace, each holding a stone box, placing them before the ‘coffin slab’ shaped altar in front of the Calamity Hierarch.

The Calamity Hierarch’s lips curled into a smile as he asked, “What have we sacrificed?”

“Reporting to the Hierarch,” Liu Chi Tianchan with his handsome and bewitching face showed a slight smile, “compared to what we have gained, it is actually insignificant.”

“It shouldn’t be said like that.”

Regret appeared on the old face of the Calamity Hierarch as he spoke slowly:

“All beings who pledge allegiance to our Western Sect simply wish to survive properly, it’s still my miscalculation that not all companions can retreat unscathed.

“Open them.”

The people around him stepped forward simultaneously, opening the five stone boxes to reveal Chiyou’s Demonic Body inside.

The Calamity Hierarch waved his hand, and five streaks of black light flew out of the boxes, forming hands, feet, most of a torso, and a damaged head.

The entire hall was shrouded in black qi.

In the corner, several weaker demons’ eyes glowed red.

“They’re dead and still not at peace.”

The Calamity Hierarch flicked a Treasure Bead, which hovered above Chiyou’s Demonic Body, absorbing all the black qi, restoring normalcy to the great hall.

Following this, Calamity, Liu Chì Tianchan, Daoist Mosquito, and the surrounding demons all frowned.

The Calamity Hierarch pointed at the empty spot where Chiyou’s buttocks and lower abdomen should be, and frowned, saying:

“Where’s Chiyou’s ass?”

“Hierarch, we couldn’t find it.”

“Five barracks, corresponding to the five stone boxes, we’ve taken them all out.”

The Calamity Hierarch frowned tightly, a wooden box appearing in his hand, from which a thumping sound emanated.

He took the Demon Heart of Chi You out of the box, trying to press it against Chiyou’s Demonic Body, but there was no reaction between the heart and the body – the parts of Chiyou’s Demonic Body seemed to have no connection.

“This!”

The Calamity Hierarch then stuffed the Chiyou Demon Heart into the large cavity in Chiyou’s torso.

“What a cunning Xuanyuan Huangdi, to take such precautions here.

“The power of Chiyou’s Demonic Body is all sealed in…

Chiyou’s waist…

“Daoist Mosquito?

Go to the Sea of Blood and ask the Sea of Blood ritual to sense again the exact location of Chiyou’s waist part at the moment.”

“Yes!”

Daoist Mosquito bowed to receive the order, vanishing silently, leaving only a couple of buzzes.

“Ah, quartering the body but hiding the butt.”

The Calamity Hierarch shook his head, his expression somewhat indescribable.

…

Meanwhile.

“Where’s the Tianli Alliance Hierarch?”

“Sect Leader Li, the Hierarch has returned to the East to take charge!”

At the entrance of the Holy Mother Palace, Li Dazhi, who had just stabilized the situation, nodded upon hearing this.

Li Dazhi said: “I figure that our Human Emperor Your Majesty might take this opportunity of Chiyou’s Demonic Body being stolen to launch an offensive against the Hundred Clans of the Western Continent.”

Several high-ranking officials from the East exchanged looks, not daring to continue the conversation.

An old woman asked: “Does the Heavenly Emperor have any strategy?”

“Ping’an is thinking,” Li Dazhi said, “the problem is that the Western Sect has two Sect Hierarchs, and our Human Race can only rely on the protection of the Holy Mother; if we could defeat Ling Mountain, why would we put up with this humiliation!”

The several high-ranking officials each voiced their opinion:

“This matter has already been spread everywhere, our Human Race’s Qi Cultivators are agitated, and we also need to do something.”
