Chapter 642 - 642 628 Everyone Has Their Plans

Chapter 642: Chapter 628: Everyone Has Their Plans Chapter 642: Chapter 628: Everyone Has Their Plans Yuan Jingxing listened and smirked slightly, saying, “Indeed, by that time, they’ll be wary of us stealing their glory, and we’ll find them distasteful as well. There’s really no point in seeking out such discomfort.”

“As long as you understand, take our people and focus on our tasks.” Su Zhanze said.

In the morning, the fog dissipated.

Qiao Haoyu was still waiting, yet Su Zhanze and his group were nowhere in sight. He speculated, “The Vice Sect Leader must still be in bed, reluctant to rise.”

Ren Haotian suggested, “Perhaps he was traumatized by the last experience, afraid to venture out, fearing he will never return to see his wife.”

Then someone came to tell them that Su Zhanze and Yuan Jingxing had already left.

Qiao Haoyu was taken aback and said, “They must have been afraid that we would steal their credit.”

Ren Haotian nodded and said, “Well, if they are afraid that we will steal their credit, I’m even more worried about them stealing ours. A total nuisance.”

At this moment, Ren Xiongbei walked over, somewhat surprised that he didn’t see Su Zhanze and the others.

Qiao Haoyu then told him that Su Zhanze and the others were gone.

Ren Xiongbei said, “Well then, this time we face the formidable Demon Soul. He’s ruthless and who knows how many he commands. You all must take extra care in the Demon Valley and meet up with Guo Mingyu and his group right away, do you understand?”

Ren Haotian quickly nodded and said, “Understood.”

“Ah, we cannot be careless. Didn’t the New City Sect lose due to being negligent?”

Qiao Haoyu also nodded slightly.

“Alright, duly inform me if there are any updates,” Ren Xiongbei said.

Ren Haotian said, “Don’t worry, the Dragon Slaying Clan doesn’t have many people. Our two sects combined are more than a match for them. Plus, we have the Xuan Clan on our side.”

Longhun and Mo Ku had already disembarked.

Then, someone reported that the people from Demon Palace City and Immortal City were making moves. This surprised Longhun, as he hadn’t expected Demon Palace City and Immortal City to act so swiftly this time.

Mo Ku asked, “Are they intending to blockade us at the beach?”

The disciple shook his head and said, “No, it seems they know our target is the Demon Valley and are heading in that direction.”

This greatly surprised Mo Ku. He said, “The movements in the realm of Immortals and Demons should not be this swift.”

Longhun chuckled and said, “Indeed faster than expected. It seems some people are quite cautious.” He then asked, “Who is leading the Immortal City Sect? And who is in charge of Demon Palace City?”

The underling replied, “Su Zhanze is leading the Immortal City. However, it appears that they have split up. Qiao Haoyu is also leading a group, both are headed toward the Demon Valley. Demon Palace City is under the command of Guo Mingyu.”

“Guo Mingyu, I see he still assigns significance to this.” Longhun said.

Mo Ku said, “Now among the realm of Immortals and Demons, only Guo Mingyu remains.”

“Still not sure how they got the news so quickly.” the underling continued, “Also, both major and minor sects within the realm of Immortals and Demons seem to know the news as well. They’re also heading for the Demon Valley, although they’re noticeably slower than the Demon Palace and Immortal City.”

“They likely guessed it. We brought so few people into the Central Plains, they wouldn’t believe we came to attack them. They probably assumed we have another motive. Perhaps Mituom and the others exposed us.” Longhun concluded.

Mo Ku found this analysis reasonable and said, “Actually, this makes us look careless. Why didn’t we think of this earlier? If we had arranged for several more boats, they wouldn’t have been able to guess our other motives.”

Longhun coldly said, “No matter, if they wish to come, then they should come. Even if we are outnumbered, it won’t stop us from executing our plan. Even if Su Hong and Qiao Fanfeng were resurrected, they won’t be able to save them. Since they are eager to come, let them taste our new scheme. It can’t be so easy for them to catch up.”

Mo Ku understood Longhun’s intentions and replied, “Leave this to me, I’ll handle it.”

“Alright, I’ll be waiting for you at the Demon Valley,” Longhun said.

Mo Ku nodded in acknowledgment.

Shi Xueqin came running over, saying, “The news has been leaked so quickly. What should we do now?”

“Nothing needs to be done. I’m going to break the seal. No one can possibly stop me,” Longhun proclaimed.

“But with so many of them coming and us being so few in numbers, we still have to deal with the Xuan Clan,” she said worriedly.

Longhun laughed and said, “Numbers don’t matter. We need to use our brains.”

Shi Xueqin was still worried, “If only we had known this earlier, we would have brought back more people.”

“We underestimated Guo Mingyu.” Longhun got up and said, “Don’t waste my time anymore. All I want is to break the seal. No one can stop me.”

Longhun and Mo Ku parted ways.

The New City Sect had already arrived at Wasteland City. A few days had passed, and as they had anticipated, everything was already set up.

After a period of preparation, the defense system was fully deployed. Now they could announce to the entire Wastelands that the New City Sect was back.

Ye Chen heaved a sigh of relief. If they hadn’t secured everything within these ten days, facing the Third Demon’s attack on Wasteland City would have been daunting.

Jiang Zhuge approached, suggesting, “We should talk to the brothers of the Xue Family. If we are short of manpower, they may be able to provide some help.”

Ye Chen nodded in agreement. This was exactly what he had thought. It was indeed necessary to discuss this matter. They still didn’t know the extent of Yuan Menhai’s power and how many men they would bring. It was always good to have a backup plan.

“How about I go negotiate with them and have them secretly bring in some reinforcements? You can stay in Wasteland City and announce our return to the Wastelands.”

Ye Chen, sipping his water and peering ahead, was still worried that some aspects might have been overlooked.

Li Mo said, “We’ve already prepared everything that needs to be done. It’s time to give them some trouble.”

“Alright, Jiang Zhuge, you seek out the Xue Family brothers tomorrow. I will announce the return of the New City Sect to the Wastelands in three days’ time and call back the disciples of the New City Sect,” Ye Chen replied.

Jiang Zhuge asked, “Should we call back Can Mo too?”

“No, let Can Mo stay in Ghost City. We never know when he might come in handy. His usefulness there exceeds what he can contribute to us here,” Ye Chen decided. He planned to squeeze the Third Demon from both sides and reduce him to an ant in a hot pot.

“Then I will leave tonight and seek out the brothers of the Xue Family,” Jiang Zhuge announced.

“Do take care,” Ye Chen responded.

Night had fallen by this time, and the surroundings were deathly quiet. After ten days of hard work, Wasteland City had undergone a complete transformation. Not as before, though.

Rong’er, standing beneath the city tower, called out, “Master, why are you not coming down yet? Aren’t you hungry? We can eat dinner now.”

Ye Chen replied with an affirmation.

“Is there something you’re still worried about? Haven’t we figured everything out already! We have even dug three escape routes. What more could you ask for?” Rong’er queried.

Hearing her words, Ye Chen chuckled and patted her small head. Although Wasteland City wasn’t reconstructed yet, the cleaned-up streets appeared quite lively.

They had not called back the civilians, and the city was mainly populated by the members of the New City Sect.

The busiest place was the city square, where several bonfires were lit. People gathered around the fires, chatting. After defeating Xiao Bai, everyone’s confidence was boosted and they returned in high spirits.

Guo Yuyun was gnawing on roast chicken, her mouth greased. She was acting like a child.

“Young lady, you should show some manners when eating. You should at least look proper,” Ye Chen advised.

Guo Yuyun brushed him off, “What is there to look proper about? I am free-spirited! I will not learn to behave like a lady—I do not wish to be one.”

“I fear even if you wished to, you couldn’t become a lady.”

“Come over quickly; everyone is eating. We aren’t reserving anything for you. If you want to squabble, make sure your stomach is full first,” Rong’er interjected.

Li Mo was the most lively of all. After being cooped up for ten days and finally completing their preparation, she was understandably elated and full of spirit.

Ye Chen approached and the slightly tipsy Li Mo demanded a speech.

“Don’t be shy! A Sect Leader is not a man of bashfulness. Make a quick speech!” Li Mo pulled Ye Chen over.

Everyone was looking up at him.

Eloquently, Ye Chen began, “Fine, I grant your request. All of you must have felt suppressed for quite some time. I, too, went through the same. We got a breath of fresh air after wiping out Xiao Bai and his men. However, to defeat the Third Demon, we have a long way yet.”

“Today, we finally laid down an extensive plan and fortified our defense system. Whether we can withstand the Third Demon’s attack depends on the upcoming battle. Only by making the Third Demon bleed again can we completely reverse our fortunes. I intend to set the battlefield right here, in Wasteland City. I’ve accomplished only part of my plan so far. Rebuilding Wasteland City isn’t within reach at the moment. It can only be done after we annihilate the Third Demon, enabling us to bring back our people in peace. While today we’ve only accomplished the preparatory work, it is still a cause for celebration. I believe, as long as we stay united, there’s always hope.”

“I’ve decided that in three days, we will rise in revolt against the Third Demon. We will announce from the Wasteland City, calling for those who wish to join the New City Sect, and challenge the standing of the Third Demon once and for all. When that happens, they won’t be able to rest idle—they’ll come and attack us. And that’s precisely what I want. Let them come. We will start from here and defeat the Third Demon utterly, completing our path of vengeance.”

The atmosphere below was solemn, everyone quiet.

“I am quite confident, having made necessary preparations. We will reverse our dismal situation right here and watch the self-destruction of the Third Demon. I know all of you have been exhausted for a long time. For the next three days, let ourselves relax. When the men of the Third Demon appear, let’s give them a good thrashing.”

The crowd cheered, various exclamations filling the air.
