Chapter 392 - 392 379 Setting a Trap with Fang Ziren

Chapter 392: Chapter 379: Setting a Trap with Fang Ziren Chapter 392: Chapter 379: Setting a Trap with Fang Ziren Qiao Fanfeng worried that the Dragon Slaying Clan would target Demon Palace City.

“Yes, I know. I’ll speed things up,” Guo Mingyu continued. “Who would have thought that the Mutant Winged Dragon would split the Army of Death and deploy it to Immortal City to confront them, while he himself heads to Heavenly City, allying himself with the Demon and Evil Domains? He even managed to intimidate the people of Heavenly City.”

“Perhaps we should let Ye Chen take on the role of Alliance Leader. He is more cautious,” Fanfeng confessed helplessly, at a loss of what to do about the Mutant Winged Dragon.

Guo Mingyu said, “Even if we give the leadership to Ye Chen, we’d need to support him. Actually, Ye Chen guessed right this time. Immortal City could be in danger, that’s why he wanted Ren Xiongbei to retreat. But for some unknown reason, Xiongbei returned. He missed his chance to make it back in time. With this, I’m not blaming Xiongbei. I just want to underscore that we need unified commands. Disagreements can’t persist, or else we won’t have unity despite having a leader.”

Qiao Fanfeng nodded. “You’re right. Our Sect Leader even asked Ye Chen to temporarily serve in his place.”

“The current circumstances are unfavorable to us. Considering Ye Chen is the son of the Mutant Winged Dragon and from the New City Sect, we must unequivocally stand with him to take some of the pressure off him. Otherwise, despite being given the title of Alliance Leader, others might not obey him, rendering the title useless.”

“Fair point.”

“We must fully unite. We have to discuss things clearly, consider each step and act accordingly. Reckless behavior is not an option.” Guo Mingyu knew they had to get back on their feet quickly. There was no time left to grieve.

“Yes, indeed.”

“Let’s hold off until they arrive. I heard that Jiang Ouyang will lead everyone out of Immortal City and send them to Demon Palace. However, I don’t think Demon Palace is the safest place. I have a safe place in mind, but I’m not sure if the Dragon Slaying Clan will target Demon Palace. We must stay vigilant. So, staying in Demon Palace might not be the best idea. Demon Palace must be ready for a decisive battle.”

“Yes, you’re right.”

…

In Heavenly City, the Demon and Evil Domains swiftly seized anything useful or valuable.

Xishan Gui never expected that the people of Heavenly City would flee like this, precisely as the Mutant Winged Dragon had predicted.

Shi Tuo, the second-in-command of the Evil Domain, remarked, “Even though we took over Heavenly City, we didn’t kill too many of the city’s inhabitants.”

Jing Po, who was allied with the Slaughter Saint, said, “Of course, they all fled. You wanted to kill, but they didn’t give you the chance.”

“They will definitely join up with Qiao Fanfeng and the others. We should consider our next move — whether to engage them in battle here or at Demon Palace,” Shi Tuo suggested.

All eyes turned to the Mutant Winged Dragon, waiting to hear his thoughts.

But the Winged Dragon remained silent, lost in thought.

The second-in-command of the Demon Domain, Yin Jue, reasoned, “Su Hong is already dead. If we decide to fight at Demon Palace, we have to face their Defense System. It might be better to fight here. If we can tear off a big chunk of their forces here, it’d be an advantage. The Heavenly City Sect did abandon Heavenly City, but not many of them died. They’re still a formidable force.

“A thousand disciples from the Immortal City Sect died, but they took out seven to eight hundred from the Dragon Slaying Clan as well. So, the number ratio isn’t too unfavorable. Hence, the actual impact on the Demon Domain isn’t significant. For a major impact, we have to get back to killing a large number of the Demon Domain disciples.”

Slaughter Saint agreed, “Since we conquered two cities and dealt a blow to the Demon and Immortal Domains, now they only have Demon Palace left. That’s the only place where they can retreat to.”

“If we want to annihilate the Demon and Immortal Domains, we must get back to the basics — eliminate their living forces.”

The Mutant Winged Dragon stated, “You’re right. The two battles indeed shook up the Demon and Immortal Domains. To defeat them and inflict serious damage, we must kill their people.”

“To eliminate them, we can only start a war. But, it might be more advantageous to wage war here, where they don’t have a Defense System. It’s a level playing field, and the momentum is in our favour,” Yin Jue proposed.

This suggestion aligned perfectly with the Mutant Winged Dragon’s thoughts. He said, “I also intend to fight them here. I have already instructed Mitra Monk and the Zen Master to hurry over here.”

The Evil King, Sheng Kong, suggested, “But, the people of the Demon and Immortal Domains might not think like us. They would certainly stay alert because they suspect that we might try to swallow up a part of them. They might not be willing to fight us here.”

The Mutant Winged Dragon nodded in agreement. “Yes, exactly.”

Shi Tuo proposed, “We need to find a breakthrough and we need bait.”

The Mutant Winged Dragon replied, “The bait could be the group from the Heavenly City Sect. They must not have left the area yet, so the people of Demon and Immortal Domains will definitely try to find them, connect with them, and regroup. And, I want to find people like Fang Ziren as quickly as possible.”

“Are you planning to use Fang Ziren and the others to draw the people from Demon and Immortal Domains here?” Yin Jue asked.

The Mutant Winged Dragon replied, “No, not all the people from Demon and Immortal Domains. I just want to bring a subset of them here.” He intended to swallow up a large chunk initially.

Demon King, Gao Ba, seemed to comprehend the strategy. “You want to draw Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu here?”

“Exactly. We can consume them piece by piece. It won’t be as laborious. If everyone came over here, we wouldn’t be able to swallow them all at once, and it would be problematic.”

“You plan to block the people coming from Immortal City.”

“I’m considering it, but I’m unsure if we can actually stop them. Nonetheless, I’ll do everything in my power to prevent them from coming over. I’ll try to get Mitra Monk to bring the Army of Death here as soon as possible. Once they’re here, we can join forces to confront Qiao Fanfeng and his group.”

“That seems like a good plan,” Sheng Kong recognized.

The Mutant Winged Dragon acknowledged, “Well, I don’t know if it’ll work out. But, I’d like to hear your opinions.”

“Using Fang Ziren to allure Qiao Fanfeng while blocking the New City Sect and Ren Xiongbei from approaching from Immortal City does sound like a good idea. But we need to locate Fang Ziren and the others first.”

“I have already dispatched the Winged Dragon to search for them in the vicinity, we should get the results soon.”

Gao Ba said: “If we really find them, we should set a trap and directly lure Qiao Fanfeng over. Tearing off a big piece to deal with later is a good strategy.”

“I’m afraid they won’t fall into the trap,” Shi Tuo said.

“They will. As long as Fang Ziren calls for help, I don’t believe that Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu will just stand by and watch,” The Mutant Winged Dragon responded.

Gao Ba nodded after hearing this and said, “This can work. Indeed, it’s a good strategy. We need to find a way to make a good plan, including how to stop the people coming from the Immortal City.”

“I will have the Zen Master find a way,” the Mutant Winged Dragon continued. “Our cooperation has just begun, there’s no need to rush everything.”

“Good, let’s look forward to our swift success then.”

At this moment, Xishan Gui jumped over and said, “Many houses are unharmed, but we can’t move them. What should we do?”

Yin Jue laughed upon hearing this and said, “You still want to even move their house, huh?”

“Huh, should we burn them then?”

The Mutant Winged Dragon threw out a sentence, “Burn them all, leave nothing.”

Unexpectedly, the Mutant Winged Dragon was so determined, hardly hesitating at Xishan Gui’s question. Xishan Gui said, “Really? Should we burn them? Isn’t it a waste?”

“Are you planning to leave anything for the Heavenly City Sect! Not only am I going to burn down Heavenly City, but I’ll also burn down Demon Palace City next!” Growled Mutant Winged Dragon as he turned and walked away

Xishan Gui looked at the Mutant Winged Dragon’s retreating figure, then looked at Gao Ba: “Are we really going to reduce all the buildings in the Demon Domain to ashes?”

Yin Jue said: “The people of the Demon Domain made us homeless in the Central Plains. Why should they have homes then?”

On hearing this, Xishan Gui said, “Yes, why should they have cities and homes when we are homeless in the Central Plains?”

Xishan Gui shouted, “Did you hear me? That which cannot be moved will be set on fire. Spare nothing!”

The people were all shocked.

Yin Jue said, “Burn it all. Let’s see what remnants of the Demon Domain we could possibly leave behind in the Central Plains. There can’t be any trace of their history. After us, there will be no Demon Domain in the Central Plains.”

Xishan Gui also started to shout, saying, “That’s right, in the future, it will only be us. There will be no Demon Domain, so burn all relics left behind by the Demon Domain.”

And so, the whole Heavenly City turned into a sea of fire. Fang Ziren watched in distress from outside the city, shouting, “These bunch of tortoise sons of bitches, all they know is how to burn.”

Xiong Shuobo said, “Sect Leader, don’t look anymore. At least we are still alive. If we were in the city, they would definitely want to kill us all.”

“How come nobody told me that the Dragon Slaying Clan was leading civilians and not their Army of Death?” Fang Ziren said angrily.

Xiong Shuobo said, “We didn’t know either. We just found out that they are not their Army of Death.”

At this time, Gu Xueyun came over and said, “The Army of Death is in the Immortal City. They’ve destroyed it and killed Su Hong.”

Fang Ziren couldn’t believe what he heard and quickly took the small piece of paper. It was true.

Xiong Shuobo was shocked to hear it and said, “Even Su Hong is dead.”

Gu Xueyun said, “The Immortal City is now a sea of fire. But, the night before the city was broken, Su Hong let the old and weak escape from the city.”

“Su Hong was so powerful, and yet he couldn’t stop the Dragon Slaying Clan’s Army of Death. We can’t imagine how powerful their Army of Death is. We were lucky to have escaped,” Xiong Shuobo said.

Fang Ziren still couldn’t believe it and asked, “Didn’t Su Hong escape too?”

“He had the chance, but he didn’t take it. He chose to stay with the city defenders of Immortal City.” Gu Xueyun couldn’t believe what she had just said and felt sorry for them.

Xiong Shuobo listen and said, “What’s the point of that? Once you die, you lose everything. Why didn’t he leave? Does this represent his bravery?”

“It’s not that. It’s because he didn’t want to give up the Immortal City.”

“But he knew he couldn’t defend it.”

“Even if we can’t defend it, we should still resist. We can’t just give up.”

Xiong Shuobo dropped his head.

Fang Ziren asked, “What really happened?”

“From what I heard, Ye Chen had guessed that the Dragon Slaying Clan might be spreading out their actions, but there was no evidence. He wanted Ren Xiongbei to go check, but Ren Xiongbei went back after a while and found that there was nothing happening in the Immortal City. He then headed back towards us, which delayed his return. If they were just one day earlier, the Immortal City wouldn’t have been broken by the Army of Death,” Gu Xueyun explained.
