_2 “Em, I’ll take responsibility for contacting Tongtian Shishuzu and ask him to restrain Daoist Jieying.”

Li Ping’an aimed the Precious Mirror towards the southern part of the Western Continent.

Lights of immortality flickered everywhere, celestial soldiers patrolled the lands, camps were set up in the clouds, and the drums in all cities boomed simultaneously.

On that side, having received the military order, they began to assemble a great army and march north.

Li Dazhi followed along for a while, found it somewhat uninteresting, looked up, and said, “Soon, Wanmo Tian and other Demon Cultivators should pop up to disrupt the rear of the Human Race.

Should we take this opportunity to deal with them?

Their masters should not be too many.”

“You handle it; I won’t get involved.”

Li Ping’an wondered, “Why do you have to consult me for everything now?”

Li Dazhi laughed and scolded, “Of course.

You are the Heavenly Emperor.”

Li Ping’an shrugged, “This so-called Heavenly Emperor of mine is still thanks to your lectures to the Heavenly Dao, isn’t it?”

“What does that have to do with me?

It’s your own ability,” Li Dazhi said seriously.

“I’m not going to chat nonsense here anymore.

In any case, do not let others’ evil cause your own struggle; that’s not justice but pretentiousness.”

Li Ping’an gave a thumbs up.

“The great philosopher of the Desolate Era is indeed you, sir.”

“You’re the old one!”

Li Dazhi stood up, holding his waist, his face gleaming with pride:

“I’m still in my prime, the heroic spirit remains; it was just my mindset that felt old.

Now, I’m radiant!

“I’m going back.

Your two aunts are drinking tea and chatting.

I’d better not let them start arguing if I’m late.

“The joy here is indeed trivial!

Hahaha!”

As Li Ping’an remembered something, he shouted, “Dad!

Later, I will ask Daoist Guiling to protect me on a trip to the Western Continent!

No need to worry!”

“Go on, go on!

Just be careful!”

Li Dazhi’s voice came from outside the courtyard, his figure had already vanished.

…

Li Ping’an planned to navigate a flat boat over the Western Continent to experience this great battle up close.

This way, it would be convenient for him to intervene at a critical moment, with Daoist Guiling accompanying him, enabling the summoning of the Tongtian Sect Leader at any time.

The Hundred Clans skirmished, containing great karma and great obstacles.

None of the Great Sects would directly join the fight, each restraining their disciples from participating.

The Tongtian Sect Leader only needed to restrain Daoist Jieying; against the Human Race, the experts of the Western Sect were already negligible.

Second…

Li Ping’an was thinking of the words Xuanyuan Huangdi had secretly conveyed to him before his return.

“Ping’an, in this battle, I actually only have sixty percent confidence.”

Xuanyuan Huangdi sighed:

“But this opportunity is too rare.

If we continue to delay, once the Demon Race recovers, it will be an endless standoff and friction.

“I’m tired, weary, the Eastern Alliance can’t hold on anymore, and some areas are almost rotting at the roots.

“Not to mention, we have always been relying on the treasury of the Ancient Heavenly Court to support the Human Race’s celestial soldiers.

This practice of living off our reserves can only last so long, and then what?

“So this time, if there’s a chance, I will not leave any remnants of the ancient great demons, not even if Mother comes to persuade me.”

Li Ping’an solemnly said, “Brother, your righteousness!”

“What righteousness?

It’s just that there’s no other way.

The Great Sects contend, and the Human Race is their chessboard.”

Xuanyuan Huangdi continued softly:

“You must remember, if this battle progresses smoothly, I will give the Hundred Clans a chance to migrate towards Mount Ling.

“I let them bypass Mount Ling just for this calculation.

“Then, it will be your time to appear.”

“My appearance?

Aren’t I supposed to avoid participating in the Human Race’s campaigns?”

Li Ping’an, actually having guessed something, still couldn’t help but ask:

“Brother, do you want me to protect those clans?”

“Indeed.”

Xuanyuan Huangdi said gravely:

“I am the Human Emperor; there are some things I cannot do, but you, as the Heavenly Emperor, can.

“I cannot forgive the Hundred Clans for those who died in battle, past two great wars where the Hundred Clans slaughtered our Human Race with insidious intentions, with heavy casualties, each time only by the valiant sacrifice of Human Race heroes vanquishing demons were we barely able to hold on.

“I will handle the slaughter; you take care of righteousness.

“All you have to do is appear, using excuses like the Heavenly Dao can’t bear to see living beings suffer, or perhaps preparing a better excuse, to negotiate with the Hundred Clans.

“My goal has always been to exterminate the ancient great demons and harshly punish those man-eating great demons stained with deep karma.

The other creatures instigated by the ancient great demons are not the enemies of the Human Race.

Otherwise, this mutual hatred and continuous cycle of retaliation are just a repetition of ancient grievances.

“Your coming forward to protect the Hundred Clans and letting them henceforth obey the Heavenly Court, subject to its rules, is the only solution I can think of to dissolve this hatred.”

Li Ping’an pondered for a few moments.

Xuanyuan Huangdi asked, “Are you afraid of being criticized by the Human Race?”

“In doing this, I will inevitably be criticized by some of the Human Race’s warriors,” Li Ping’an smiled, “but since you have planned thus, I too must stand firm; let them criticize.”

“Good.”

Xuanyuan Huangdi smiled with narrowed eyes:

“Don’t worry about these things.

I’ve had Wind prepare everything.

After exterminating those ancient great demons, this world will naturally return to order.

“We’ll help clear your name; even if the Human Race has complaints, once their killing intent fades, they won’t care about those demons who haven’t eaten humans…then, you just need to distinguish between the Hundred Clans and the Demon Race…”

Still, Xuanyuan Huangdi’s voice flowed by his ears.

Li Ping’an was slightly lost in thought, eyes closed in contemplation, his handsome, young face not revealing much emotion.

Only when he heard Qing Su’s calling did he slowly open his eyes;

He was already high above the Western Continent, navigating in the clear air, having left Dong’an City half a day ago.
