“Of course, so we must work together,” Ye Chen replied.

Fang Ziren suddenly asked with concern, “By the way, how are Jiang Zhuge and the others doing?”

Ye Chen answered, “They encountered the Tianye Demon. The Tianye Demon really wants to eliminate them, but Jiang Zhuge had already prepared for it. Now they’ve engaged in battle, yet the Tianye Demon doesn’t have much of an advantage. At best, they’re evenly matched.”

“They must be tied down, right?”

“Yes, it will be very difficult for them to break free any time soon,” Ye Chen said.

“As long as nothing goes wrong on the Demon Palace’s side, we’ll quickly settle things here and then go back to help them. Everything will soon improve,” Fang Ziren thought. As long as they could quickly deal with these people and prevent them from continuing to open the Sealed Door, they could then surround the Dragon Slaying Clan over at the Demon Palace City.

“Yes, that’s right,” Ye Chen continued, “We need to prepare before going up the mountain. Your people can take this opportunity to rest well, there’s no need to rush.”

“Yes, Senior Brother Guo has already said that you’re in command of us, we will all listen to you.”

“No, we will discuss it together.”

Fang Ziren wasn’t meeting Ye Chen for the first time; he admired Ye Chen’s talent and intelligence and also believed in his ability. He added, “Let’s still follow what Senior Brother Guo said.”

Ye Chen felt a bit embarrassed.

“Don’t be shy; truthfully speaking, there are not many in the Immortal Demon Realm whom I admire, but you are definitely one I do admire.”

“You flatter me.” Ye Chen was somewhat overwhelmed with the praise.

“Not at all, I am aware of your capabilities.”

“Sect Leader Fang, let’s divide our forces into two groups,” Ye Chen suggested.

Fang Ziren asked with some confusion, “Into two groups?”

“That’s what I’m thinking. As we advance up the mountain, we should leave one group behind; we shouldn’t all head for the Immortal City. If something unexpected happens, not everyone will end up trapped inside,” Ye Chen wanted to be cautious. They couldn’t all rush in; if a real emergency occurred, where would they find reinforcements?

“Are you still worried that there might be a trap?”

“It’s always good to be extra cautious, isn’t it!”

“How do you plan to divide them?” Fang Ziren asked curiously.

“One group will be two-thirds of the total, and the other will be one-third. You and I will lead the two-thirds, responsible for entering the Immortal City. The remaining one-third can be led by Li Mo and your Gu Xueyun. If anything unexpected happens, we won’t be so passive.”

Fang Ziren was silent for a moment and then nodded slightly, saying, “Alright, it’s indeed better to be cautious, I agree with your suggestion.”

“Thank you very much then.”

“Ha ha, what’s there to thank? It’s already said that you are our leader.”

“I dare not. You are a senior, with far more experience than me.”

Fang Ziren was quite pleased.

Ye Chen had given this deep thought; they couldn’t hesitate anymore. If it indeed was mere paranoia and they delayed, it would be unfortunate. But if they split into two parts and an emergency arose, they could at least be less passive. In a word, they had to act now.

“More than four hundred people facing their three hundred should be enough,” Fang Ziren calculated.

But in Ye Chen’s mind, the most important thing was to be steady.

If something did happen, who would come to their aid? Wait for others from the Immortal Demon Realm to arrive? By then, it would be too late, and he wouldn’t allow such a situation to occur. The Longhun surely knew he had left the Immortal City and might have guessed that he was leading people to the Immortal City. In that case, setting a trap here was very possible, so he definitely wouldn’t allow everyone to blunder into it headfirst.

Although no anomalies had been detected, he still felt it was better to be safe.

Ye Chen said, “When the time comes, Li Mo, you and Gu Xueyun must coordinate well.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Xueyun replied, “Don’t worry, the two of us will definitely work well together, you can be assured of that.”

Ye Chen nodded slightly.

After dinner, they divided their forces, and once the divisions were made, Li Mo left with Ye Chen.

Li Mo said, “This arrangement is pretty good, providing at least one additional line of defense. If we do fall into a trap, it won’t result in all of us being caught inside.”

Ye Chen turned around and asked, “Li Mo, what would you do if it really turned out to be a trap?”

“Of course, I would find a way to rescue you all.”

“Rescuing us is necessary, but you must ensure that you do not lead the group into the trap while trying to do so,” Ye Chen said.

Li Mo nodded continuously.

“Now, in the Immortal City, it’s just us. Relying on other disciples from the Immortal Demon Realm is not possible. If it truly turns out to be a trap, we’ll be in trouble if everyone falls in.”

“Sect Leader, I think this task should be left to me and Fang Ziren, and you and Gu Xueyun should stay on the outside.”

Ye Chen smiled, he would definitely not agree to such a proposal. This matter was extremely important; Guo Mingyu had entrusted it to him because of his deep trust in Ye Chen. How could he possibly just hand it over to someone else? Fang Ziren was impulsive, which Ye Chen was aware of. He shook his head and said, “There’s no need to argue with me about this. You and Gu Xueyun stay outside. I cannot trust you to handle this matter if I were to send you to Hell Tower.”

“I know, I realize the importance of this matter.” Li Mo became less composed and somewhat panic-stricken after Ye Chen put it in such a way, saying, “What you’re saying is making me feel unsettled.”

“Really?”

“But the Sect Leader is right; Longhun indeed has a sharp mind.”

“That’s right; caution helps one sail the ship for a thousand years.” Ye Chen continued, “Our first objective isn’t to annihilate them. Of course, that would be best, but we must always remember that sealing the Bagua Secret Talisman in Hell Tower is our top priority, then everything else follows.”

Li Mo hurriedly nodded his head.

“If something unexpected really happens, don’t be so rushed. We need to think of a solution slowly. Remember not to recklessly charge in. You’ve followed me for so long, and you’ve been with Third Demon for many years. You should have some experience.”

Again, Li Mo nodded.

“Alright, I won’t say much more. I’ve given all the necessary instructions. You and Gu Xueyun make arrangements. Gu Xueyun is quite level-headed and easier to cooperate with compared to Fang Ziren.”

Li Mo understood what Ye Chen meant.

“Discuss any issue thoroughly between the two of you.”

Beneath Demon Palace City, night had already fallen.

A person was brought before Longhun; it was none other than Su Zhanze. Shackled at the wrists, his murderous eyes glared at Longhun.

“Don’t stare at me with those lustful eyes; they give me the goosebumps,” Longhun said.

As soon as Su Zhanze arrived from outside, he knew it was under Demon Palace City. Clearly, they hadn’t taken Demon Palace City, and Longhun wouldn’t have summoned him for no reason. Su Zhanze said, “Don’t expect me to help you.”

“I see you’re not foolish; you know what I intend.”

“If you think I’ll do something that will harm the worlds of immortals and demons, dream on.”

“Is that so? Then you don’t want to save the group from the Immortal City Sect, then? I have three to four hundred of them in my hands. Your mother, Feng Nianmei, is here as well, and your beloved Guo Yuqing.”

Guo Yuqing was still alive. Su Zhanze glared back, bellowing, “What do you want?”

“Help us with one thing and I’ll let you go.”

“What do you want?”

“Didn’t you hear me clearly? Help us with one thing and I’ll release them.”

“Thinking I would do something that would harm our world, keep dreaming.”

“I have several subordinates who have taken a liking to your wife. I think I’ll let them have some fun with her. Your mother seems pretty good as well, a bit old, but still charming.”

“You son of a bitch…” Su Zhanze choked up, wanting to lunge like a beast, but he was shackled and restrained.

“Do you think anyone will come to save you? Is there someone who can rescue you? Think about your mother and your wife, along with those people from the Immortal City Sect. This is the only chance to save them. If you don’t agree, I can only kill that group, sell your mother, and take the girl along with others to Dragon Slayer Island. You know the conditions on Dragon Slayer Island are harsh; what it lacks is beautiful women.” Longhun continued, “I trust they will be treated very well there.”

“You…”

“You think you’re so righteous, others will consider your welfare? Didn’t Ren Xiongbei just abandon you outright? Who in the world of immortals and demons cares about your life and death now? They’ve long given up on you. This is your only chance to save them. I’m offering you this opportunity. You can save them and your beloved. You only have one chance, and I don’t want to waste people watching over you. The choice is yours.”

“What do you want me to do?”

He was wavering.

Longhun said, “Take this box to the Yin-Yang Tower and place it inside the tower.”

“What is it?”

“It’s meant to disrupt the energy of the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array.”

“You want me to help you break their system, then let the Sea Demon slaughter at will.”

“Yes, that’s exactly it.”

“And you think the people of the immortal and demonic worlds will despise me?”

“Don’t worry; no one will know it was you.”

Su Zhanze sneered coldly and said, “You’re asking me to help you break their system, yet you say no one will know.”

“Do you have any other choice?” Longhun retorted.

Su Zhanze believed in the Defense System of the Demon Palace City; it must have halted the Sea Demon. That’s what he thought, or else the standoff wouldn’t have lasted until now.

“Think about your wife. No one will pity you. This is your chance to save your wife, your mother, and those captured from the Immortal City Sect,” Longhun continued. “I know this decision is difficult for you, but you have no choice. Their lives hang in the balance based on your decision.”

At that moment, Su Zhanze was completely stunned.
