Chapter 862 - 862 848 Guo Mingyus Plan

Chapter 862: Chapter 848: Guo Mingyu’s Plan Chapter 862: Chapter 848: Guo Mingyu’s Plan The Immortal and Demon worlds, as well as the Xuan Clan and New City Sect, were still unaware of Guo Mingyu’s plans; it was indeed necessary to inform them of what the Demon Palace was intending, so they could be somewhat prepared.

Guo Mingyu asked, “Have the non-combatants all been pulled back?” He looked towards Lou Xuancheng.

Lou Xuancheng responded, “They have all been moved to the rear. This was done several days ago; we’ve had them retreat.”

“Hmm, very good. And are the people from the Xuan Clan and the New City Sect well arranged?”

“Yes, all has been arranged,” Lou Xuancheng continued. “I don’t think you need to worry too much, Sect Leader. We’ve made thorough preparations; now it’s a matter of whether we can withstand the Sea Demons. As long as we can use the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array to hold back the Sea Demons, we will be in a proactive position.

Today, Ling Bo told me that a group from the New City Sect has set out from Sky Domain City to enter the Central Plains and come to our aid. They number over a thousand; as long as we hold the Sea Demons at bay and prevent them from breaching the city, once the New City Sect’s people arrive, the Dragon Slaying Clan won’t break through. Our numbers will be more than double theirs.

We can then transition from being at a disadvantage to being in a position of strength.”

Lou Xuanhai added, “The key point is we must hold the line.”

Hu Nanyue was very confident and said, “I believe we can hold; we definitely can.”

After his last decisive battle with Mutant Winged Dragon, Guo Mingyu didn’t dare to take anything for granted and began to rebuild the Demon Palace City. He reconstructed the Defense System and, most importantly, developed the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array, doing everything within his power.

Guo Mingyu asked, “What about Ye Chen and the others?” He still hoped that the young man would arrive soon; if he could make it, Guo Mingyu would feel more reassured.

Upon hearing this, Lou Xuancheng replied, “I’ve asked Ling Bo about it. They should be here within two days, along with Yun’er. Sect Leader, you should summon the other sect leaders to discuss this thoroughly and give them some confidence.”

Guo Mingyu summoned Ling Jian and Song Shuangfeng and instructed, “Go tell the sect leaders of the Immortal and Demon realms, including Xuan Wen of the Xuan Clan and Ling Bo of the New City Sect, to gather here after sunset to discuss our response to the Dragon Slaying Clan tomorrow.”

Ling Jian and Song Shuangfeng quickly excused themselves.

Hu Nanyue inquired, “Sect Leader, is there anything else you are concerned about?”

Guo Mingyu managed a slight smile, and Lou Xuanhai added, “We have done everything within our capabilities. We are not the Immortal City Sect; they were besieged by the Raging Wolf Clan for so long before falling. I can’t believe that a single Sea Demon could breach our Demon Palace City.”

Guo Mingyu asked, “Is there any news of Ren Xiongbei?”

Lou Xuanhai shook his head and said, “Ren Xiongbei, too, chose to flee, completely lacking the demeanor of a sect leader. I really don’t know what to say about him.”

Guo Mingyu followed up, “Any news on Su Zhanze and his group?”

“None. There are rumors that some people were captured, but we don’t know exactly who.”

All Guo Mingyu could say was, “Alright, let’s discuss any issues that arise later.”

Night fell.

Guo Mingyu summoned all the major sect leaders, communicated his plans, and eased their minds a bit. They all understood that at this juncture, there was no turning back for the Immortal and Demon realms; they had no choice. If they couldn’t hold off the Dragon Slaying Clan and the Sea Demons in Demon Palace City, then they wouldn’t be able to face the Dragon Slaying Clan at all.

Hearing of their preparation of the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array, those who were lacking confidence gained a bit more.

Guan Yi also hadn’t expected the Demon Palace City to establish the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array in such a short period.

Song Zheng’an was somewhat surprised and questioned, “Was the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array just established in the past two days?” It certainly couldn’t have been that quick; the reliability of such a hastily built array was still up for debate.

Lou Xuancheng explained, “After defeating Longhun, we had the idea to construct the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array. Then, when the Immortal and Demon realms were defeated on Dragon Slayer Island by the Sea Demon, we began to build the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array. Our Sect Leader was concerned that they would one day control the Sea Demon, and if so, a decisive battle would be inevitable. Hence, we started creating the array from that time.”

With these words, those assembled calculated the time elapsed; it had indeed been several months, and they believed the array was trustworthy. Song Zheng’an commented, “It seems Brother Guo has indeed prophesied correctly.”

Guo Mingyu quickly responded, “There’s no prophecy about it, just an increased sense of risk. I didn’t expect we’d need it so soon.”

Song Zheng’an asked, “So, is the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array completely ready?”

Lou Xuancheng clarified, “We finished establishing it ten days ago, and we’ve been testing it continuously since.”

“In that case, there’s nothing much to ponder; let’s have the decisive battle right here in Demon Palace City.”

The leaders at the back, upon hearing this, felt like they had taken a heart-strengthening pill. More accurately, they emboldened themselves. With the Immortal City breached and the Defense System of the Demon Palace City recognized as the strongest, and considering the preparations made, if they couldn’t win against the Dragon Slaying Clan in Demon Palace City, then they would truly struggle to deal with them.

Guan Yi said, “Brother Guo, please share your plan with everyone.”

Only then did Guo Mingyu lift his head and say, “I still don’t know if this array can hold off the Sea Demon, but I hope it can endure their power. If we can withstand the Dragon Slaying Clan, we’ll just wait for the New City Sect’s forces to arrive before deciding to battle.”

A Sect Leader heard this and asked, “Will people from the New City Sect come over?”

Guo Mingyu continued, “Yes, Jiang Zhuge has already left Sky Domain City with over a thousand disciples of the New City Sect, ready to enter the Central Plains. However, it will take some time for them to get here.”

Song Zheng’an grew more confident and said, “Then there is nothing more to discuss. We will give it our all, hold off the Sea Demon, and wait for the people from the New City Sect to arrive. Together, we’ll defeat the Dragon Slaying Clan.”

They quickly came to an agreement. Guo Mingyu’s words had served as a reassurance pill for them. Whether they could withstand the assault depended on the situation tomorrow.

Longhun was already at the unnamed city at the foot of the mountain, but their entry into the city hadn’t resulted in a massive slaughter, which wasn’t what he wanted.

Night had fallen, and they could march towards the Demon Palace City tomorrow. He needed to seriously contemplate this.

Mitra Monk rushed in. He brought news from Elder Xuan, saying, “Old Xuan has unlocked two layers, but should we release the things inside Hell Tower?”

Elder Xi Feng said, “Releasing those things might not ensure they listen to us.”

“Right, they should be of help to us when they fly out,” added Slaughter Saint.

“Isn’t it good for them to come out and cause chaos?” Jing Po suggested.

However, Slaughter Saint countered, “What if he knows we are attacking Demon Palace City, they come out but do not cause chaos, do not help us, and let us fight to death, then sit back and reap the benefits?”

Jing Po looked at him and said, “Considering that, we really can’t just release them without any conditions.”

“New City Sect’s Jiang Zhuge has already left Sky Domain City with a group of New City Sect disciples heading to the Central Plains,” Mitra Monk mentioned.

But Jing Po said, “They won’t arrive so quickly. By the time they reach the Central Plains, we will have already breached the Demon Palace.”

Mitra Monk countered, “What if we can’t breach the Demon Palace City all at once?”

“Hey, don’t speak such demoralizing words,” Jing Po retorted with dissatisfaction.

“Of course, I don’t want to say such things, but such events are very likely to happen. We need to seriously consider, what if tomorrow, we can’t breach the Demon Palace City right away? What should we do then?”

“Do you really think the Demon Palace City has the means to deal with the Sea Demon?”

After hearing this, Mitra Monk said, “They have all returned to the Demon Palace City. If they had no means to respond, they would certainly choose to abandon the Demon Palace. Since they haven’t abandoned it, they must have made some preparations.”

“They don’t know how formidable the Sea Demon is.”

“No, the rapid breach of Immortal City wasn’t just because they were understaffed and didn’t make it in time. Another reason was the decay of Immortal City’s defense system, allowing us to breach it quickly. However, the Demon Palace City is different. It wasn’t damaged in the last conflict, and after so long, they must have made preparations.”

“I don’t believe they can withstand the Sea Demon.”

Mitra Monk didn’t want to argue and said, “We can suppose for a moment, if tomorrow they can withstand the attack, what should we do then? We can’t drag out the battle with them. If the people from the New City Sect really arrive and we haven’t taken the Demon Palace City in the meantime, turning our weapons on them wouldn’t be very advantageous.”

“The battle hasn’t even started yet, and you’re thinking too much,” Jing Po said with some contempt.

“Yes, it is indeed my fevered imagination running wild,” replied Mitra Monk.

But Elder Xi Feng said, “We could make use of the two unlocked layers from Hell Tower.”

“How to use them? If we really can’t break through right away and we let those released deal with the New City Sect, isn’t it said that they might not listen to us?”

Elder Xi Feng said, “We can negotiate with them. They want to come out, but there must be conditions. They have a leader, and if we can negotiate well with them, it shouldn’t be too difficult.”

Longhun said, “Old Du, don’t you have some irresistible poisons?”

Old Du stepped forward and said, “Indeed.”

“Do you carry them with you?”

“Hmm,” he muttered, pulling a white bottle from his bosom.

“They aren’t easily self-resolving, are they?”

“If they were that easily resolved, you could just throw me in a pig cage,” Old Du replied.
