1699: Chapter 1689: Master Volunteers 1699: Chapter 1689: Master Volunteers “This time, even if I don’t make a move, you have the confidence to deal with King Caesar, don’t you?”

The Desolate Emperor suddenly looked at Long Yan and asked.

He had been watching everything in secret.

Although the situation was extremely dire at the time, he saw confidence in Long Yan’s eyes.

“King Caesar shouldn’t be a problem for me, but the Zhenyang Sect will definitely have to pay a price.”

Long Yan knew that the Desolate Emperor was testing him and had no reluctance to reveal a bit of information.

“The Demon Clan is not so simple; whether the Zhenyang Sect can remain stable in this calamity mainly depends on your own strength!”

The Desolate Emperor nodded slightly, then, after saying a sentence to Long Yan, he turned into a rainbow light and disappeared.

Right afterward, Long Yan also flew toward the Ancient City of Taihuang.

“Nine Suns Inheritor, what is so extraordinary about you?”

In the Void, the Desolate Emperor murmured softly.

Back then, at the brink of life and death, it was the Master who saved him, and from then on, he became a follower of the Master, who bestowed upon him an extraordinary artifact, the Tower of the Great Emperor.

Over the years, he had been hiding in the Starfall Origin, slowly merging with the Tower of the Great Emperor, and his cultivation base had also reached the peak of the Emperor Domain.

Up until now, this was the first order given by the Master, to protect the Zhenyang Sect.

If the Master had done so, it must be because of Long Yan.

As for why, he did not know, but it was likely related to Long Yan being the Nine Suns Inheritor.

………

Outside the Ancient City of Taihuang, the battlefield had been nearly cleared in less than half a day, though the bloody smell and Evil Qi couldn’t be eliminated.

At this moment, inside the Assembly Hall of the city.

Long Yan sat on the Throne, with Yan Chixiao, Nalan Feng, the Evil Emperor, Mad Emperor, the War Heaven Double Emperors, the Suofeng Ghost Emperor, Dragon Star, Leng Qianqiu, and others all in the Great Hall.

“The crisis brought by the Demon Clan was resolved, and everyone’s contribution is indisputable; the Zhenyang Sect will reward merits accordingly, especially to thank the members of the Huashen Sect!”

Long Yan spoke loudly, casting a grateful gaze toward Yan Chixiao and Nalan Feng.

This time, if it weren’t for Yan Chixiao bringing the Reversing Heaven and Earth Annihilation Sword Array, the Zhenyang Sect, facing those hundreds of thousands of the Demon Clan, would definitely have suffered greatly and been very passive.

Add to that, the 3000 Emperors from the Huashen Sect also reduced a lot of pressure for the Zhenyang Sect.

“Brother-in-law, this time the defeat and the heavy blow to the Demon Clan are all your accomplishments, witnessed by everyone!”

Nalan Feng said with a laugh.

Indeed, the Huashen Sect exerted some effort, but it was Long Yan who truly dealt a heavy blow to the Demon Clan, nearly at the cost of his life.

“The Huashen Sect and the Zhenyang Sect are allies, so let’s dispense with the formalities.

Although we have repelled the Demon Clan this time, it doesn’t mean that the threat is now gone.”

Yan Chixiao said with a smile.

This time, if not for Long Yan striking a heavy blow on the Demon Clan by himself, the Huashen Sect would have had to pay a heavy price as well.

“Sect Leader, why did the Desolate Emperor help the Zhenyang Sect?”

Earth Dragon Truth inquired.

This question was of great interest to everyone.

“The one who truly helped the Zhenyang Sect is the person behind the Desolate Emperor.

I’m not clear about his origins, but he seems to bear no ill will toward the Zhenyang Sect, so there’s no need for concern.”

After a pause, Long Yan continued, “The Desolate Emperor will guard the Zhenyang Sect, which means, if the Zhenyang Sect is ever on the brink of life and death, he will intervene.

The Zhenyang Sect has gained another power for its protection.”

There was no need to keep this from everyone.

Telling them could ensure that everyone had a clear understanding and wouldn’t become flustered during a critical moment.

“Protect the Zhenyang Sect!”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions became contemplative, and they nodded inwardly.

Of course, this was good news; with a Demigod Giant guarding the Zhenyang Sect, there’s an added layer of security for the Sect.

“What should we do next?”

Dragon Star asked.

“This time, we have severely injured the Demon Clan, and the Desolate Emperor’s appearance has completely suppressed their morale.

However, we still don’t know the actual situation of the Demon Clan, so we must not act rashly.”

Long Yan said.

“It’s impossible to press our advantage.

The Desolate Emperor definitely won’t make a move.

With the strength of Zhenyang Sect, there is no way we can shake King Caesar.”

“The Demon Clan has suffered losses and definitely won’t make any major moves for a short time.

During the upcoming period, we should also conserve our strength.

We are bound to have a life-and-death battle with the Demon Clan.”

Long Yan continued.

The will of the Demon Clan is to turn the entire imperial area into Demon Territory.

Therefore, as long as the Demon Clan exists, the Calamities will not end.

Not to mention the entire imperial area, even just the Southern Wasteland Continent will have a battle of life and death with the Demon Clan.

Everyone nodded silently in agreement, indeed, that battle of life and death was foreseeable.

For Zhenyang Sect to truly annihilate the Demon Clan, our current strength is insufficient.

We must enhance our strength as quickly as possible.

“Earth Hall Master, in the time to come, make it a priority to clarify the details of the Demon Clan.”

Long Yan said to Earth Dragon Truth.

“Understood!”

Earth Dragon Truth nodded.

Clarifying the details of the Demon Clan is not an easy task, but he will do his best to accomplish it.

“Brother-in-law, are you preparing to return to Zhenyang Sect?”

Just then, Nalan Feng asked.

“Correct, Zhenyang Sect is vulnerable right now, and I must return to oversee it.”

Long Yan nodded, as he indeed needed to return to Zhenyang Sect.

Nearly all of Zhenyang Sect’s core strength has left, and if any incident occurs, I fear that not even Father alone could withstand it.

Both Nine Suns City and the Mountain Gate are core to Zhenyang Sect, and absolutely nothing adverse can happen there.

“If that’s the case, I’ll take on the task of guarding the Ancient City of Taihuang for you.”

Nalan Feng offered.

Upon hearing this, Yan Chixiao was taken aback, not expecting Nalan Feng to make such an offer.

“This Ancient City of Taihuang needs someone to guard it, so you can come with me to Zhenyang Sect.”

Long Yan said.

Although Huashen Sect is an ally of Zhenyang Sect, as a guest, how could he let Nalan Feng guard the Ancient City of Taihuang for Zhenyang Sect?

“I came to the imperial area to temper myself, and there’s no better opportunity than this.

Don’t worry, as long as I’m alive, I’ll ensure that not a single member of the Demon Clan sets foot in the Ancient City of Taihuang.”

Nalan Feng stood up, his tone extremely serious and earnest.

“This…”

Long Yan furrowed his brows, clearly somewhat troubled.

While he would be at ease if Nalan Feng guarded the Ancient City of Taihuang, he felt it was too much to ask.

“Since the Young Sect Master has decided, let him guard the Ancient City of Taihuang.”

After some thought, Yan Chixiao suggested to Long Yan.

Indeed, with Nalan Feng guarding the Ancient City of Taihuang, it would be beneficial for his training.

Moreover, with him and Huashen Sect’s 3000 Emperors here, there shouldn’t be any issues.

“Have you really thought this through?”

Long Yan looked at Nalan Feng and asked.

“Yes.”

Nalan Feng nodded solemnly.

“In that case, I leave the Ancient City of Taihuang in your care.”

Since Yan Chixiao had spoken, Long Yan naturally could not refuse any longer and thus agreed.
