Chapter 482: It’s Bound to Happen
Ice Kingdom
Lin Fanghua kept provoking the people outside the camp, but nobody paid attention to her. She was not a young girl who would leave just because of a few taunting words.
Seeing that nobody was paying attention, Lin Fanghua attacked the camp again. After a while, Lin Wanli appeared, pulled Lin Fanghua back, and warned her that if she kept using her magical powers recklessly, she might not be able to leave.
Lin Fanghua returned ahead of the army, and Lin Wanli took her to the outskirts of the Shenmu Sect in Zhong State, where they met Feng Jiu.
"Don’t be too sad, the vendetta of our grandfather will be avenged sooner or later."
Feng Jiu didn’t know how to comfort Lin Fanghua, so she promised to help seek revenge on the Peng Bird Demon Emperor.
"Brother Feng Jiu, wuu wuu…"
Lin Fanghua was very sad. Both of them were raised by the Peng Bird Demon Emperor, so they had a deep bond. With the Emperor now dead, Lin Fanghua felt like his world was falling apart.
After comforting Lin Fanghua, Feng Jiu asked Lin Wanli to take her to rest, while she discussed strategy with the Phoenix Demon Emperor about the upcoming battle to destroy the Shenmu Sect.
"There are only thirteen people left from the Human tribe, two from the Bing State, one from the Liang State, and ten from the Shenmu Sect. None of them can stay. Grandpa, I need to go to the Bing State, I leave this to you."
"I know, in this battle, at least ten more Demon Emperors will die."
"Fanghua must not die, that can’t change. If something happens to her, the plan ahead may need to change, we won’t have time."
"I understand."
Phoenix Demon Emperor said, during the Demon Emperor Seed Plan, Lin Fanghua was able to advance to the top three, which shows her talent and bloodline. So the demon clan has arrangements for Lin Fanghua. After Feng Jiu completes the plan and commits suicide, Lin Fanghua will take over the demon clan as the Demon Queen to ensure unity. So she can’t die.
"Divine Ape Demon Emperor, it’s time to go and accompany Peng Bird Demon Emperor."
"Understood."
"And…"
Feng Jiu listed some Demon Emperors who must die, even if they don’t die in battle, Feng Jiu will have to eliminate them later. So dying in battle is the best outcome, their species can still be preserved.
·····
The evil clan attacked again, but surprisingly, Demon Emperor Feng Jiu took away seven Demon Emperors, leaving only ten, including Demon Queen, to attack Shenmu Sect’s gate.
The battle at Shenmu Sect was intense, but Demon Emperor Feng Jiu went to Bing State and faced the human clan.
"Demon Clan Feng Jiu is here, any human friend can come out and chat."
Feng Jiu looked at the camp in front of him, the temporary camp was no match for Shenmu Sect’s stronghold that had been around for many years, it seemed not very well prepared for a fight.
"What is this guy here for?"
As soon as Feng Jiu appeared, Lin Jiang and others noticed him, when he said he wanted to catch up, they were puzzled.
"I don’t know, I’ll go check it out."
"No, it’s not for you."
"Are you looking for Third Sister?"
"Yes."
"Where is Third Sister?"
"She hasn’t come out yet. I’ll go check."
Lin Jiang said that although he made Cao Ying into a Human Emperor, Demon Emperor Feng Jiu was definitely not here to see Cao Ying. Cao Ying was still lacking in qualifications.
"Third Sister, there’s something outside…"
"I know, I’m not very keen on going out."
"How should we respond?"
"Just ignore him."
Lin Die said it was not the right time yet, and she didn’t want to meet Feng Jiu.
"Okay, Third Sister, then I’ll go first."
"Go ahead."
Lin Die waved her hand, and Lin Jiang quickly ran away.
"Demon Clan Feng Jiu is here, does the human taoist friend not even have the courage to meet once?"
"Zhou Huaiying, here’s a chance to represent the human race, hurry up."
Lin Jiang said to Zhou Huaiying, who gave him a scornful look.
He’s not dumb, why go out now, looking for trouble? Can’t you see it’s the Demon Emperor? He didn’t even go when the Demon Queen visited before.
Feng Jiu waited for half an hour, but no one from the human camp spoke to him or came out. This made Feng Jiu a little angry, feeling underestimated by the humans.
"Attack, I will lead the charge for you."
The Demon Emperor was unhappy and immediately ordered an attack. It wasn’t a horde of demonic beasts attacking, but the seven Demon Emperors he brought with him.
The fighting power of the seven Demon Emperors was even stronger than a million demonic beasts. When they appeared, Lin Jiang and the others were terrified. Cao Ying couldn’t wait to rush out.
"Zhou Huaiying, charge out."
"I’m not going. Those are seven Demon Emperors, I can’t fight against them."
"I don’t need you to fight to the death. Just engage them and distract them. Hurry, if you go out, I can forget about your past actions. Otherwise, I guarantee you will die a miserable death."
"Not going."
Zhou Huaiying still refused to go, was he out of his mind? Facing seven Demon Emperors, plus one eyeing him, going out would be like walking into a trap.
"Bastard."
Lin Jiang attacked him directly, Zhou Huaiying got angry but only dodged, not really fighting back.
"Brother, give me the Sagittarius Bow."
"No, I know what you’re planning. Don’t do something foolish, go ask Third Sister, quickly."
Lin Jiang refused directly, Lin Ying was really serious, wanting to use the Burning Life Secret Method, but Lin Ying only had a few years left.
"Disciples from different states and sects, gather according to previous practice, disciples practicing the same technique should come together, regardless of their level, the more the better, form battle formations quickly."
Lin Jiang flew up in the air and addressed the whole camp, previously in Yun State, Lin Jiang had scattered the members of different sects and rearranged teams.
But after leaving Yun State, the drawbacks of this approach became apparent, as the area was larger, there were too many strangers, making it difficult to coordinate effectively. So Lin Jiang reverted to the initial approach, having them find their own team members, and organize battle formations according to their training techniques. They had been practicing for seven to eight days, unsure of the results.
The cultivators were very efficient, immediately forming seven to eight battle formations, all from major sects, as expected, because disciples from smaller sects, even when gathered together, were few in number, making such formations less powerful.
"Attack!"
Thousands and tens of thousands of people joined forces in battle, channeling their spiritual power into their Void Achieving Ancestor. They conjured weapons and created a magical shield, attacking the Demon Emperor.
It wasn’t completely ineffective, but it didn’t pose much of a threat either. It was just a way to distract.
Lin Jiang stared at Cao Ying, who was darting around at high speed. Even though none of the Demon Emperors brought by the Demon Emperor were top-tier, Cao Ying was no match for so many. She chose to harass them, preventing them from focusing their strength on the human camp.
"Damn it."
Zhou Huaiying quickly received Lin Die’s command, cursing inwardly. Reluctantly, he rushed out of the camp and intercepted two Demon Emperors. That was about enough for him.
When Cao Ying saw Zhou Huaiying come out, she also slowed down, intercepting two Demon Emperors. However, there were still three Demon Emperors no one was challenging. After exchanging a glance, the three of them continued to attack the grand formation.
They could have easily surrounded and killed Cao Ying and Zhou Huaiying, but Feng Jiu’s goal today was to force out Lin Die, so they chose to break through the grand formation.
"*Boom*"
As a battle formation collapsed, it was clear they were no match for the Demon Emperors. Even with the support of Void Achieving, the power difference was too great.
Lin Jiang was very anxious and rushed to Lin Die again. The Lin family’s descendants were kneeling all over the ground, while Lin Ying was pleading anxiously.
"Lin Ying, take them out first."
Lin Jiang told Lin Ying, and she looked at him hesitantly before following his instructions.
"Third Sister."
"How do you plan to persuade me?"
"Speak the truth, present your reasons, be sincere."
"Haha, then let the show begin."
"Becoming an immortal is related to doomsday, but actually the doomsday part comes later. Right now, we need to gather forty-nine Tao Achieving sacrifices, with Demon Emperor Feng Jiu being the forty-ninth, not the forty-eighth as you mentioned earlier."
"Very clever, please continue."
"You are not going out because you are afraid of killing Feng Jiu. If that happens, you will be the forty-ninth one."
"Continue."
"The Great Way is fifty, and the Heavenly Wills are forty-nine. If one of them escapes, you are waiting for that one to return so you can save Cao Ying and rescue the millions of cultivators. Then I will help you find that one."
"Since you already know, why bother? They are all going to die anyway."
"As long as there is one, it’s not certain. Just like the forty-eight Tao Achieving and Demon Emperors, and the Tao Achieving and Demon Emperors of the cultivation world are almost sixty. Someone will survive in the end. I hope it’s Cao Ying."
"What if I don’t agree? It’s a bit troublesome to go find Tao Achieving again. Isn’t it better when they’re right here?"
"You will agree, no matter what kind of being you are, you are using my Third Sister’s body. I believe that my Third Sister’s spirit and vitality are still there. If you don’t agree, my Third Sister will fight you to the end."
"It’s funny to be threatened when you’re not powerful enough. Do you know that?"
"It’s pretty funny, but can you guarantee that there won’t be any mistakes at all? Can you guarantee that within your plan, you will always be strong?"
Lin Jiang continued by saying he didn’t know what the process of becoming immortal was like, but he felt there must be a point where he could attack, maybe a slight fluctuation enough to make his plan fail.
"Congratulations, you’ve persuaded me, wait here for me to come back."
Lin Die nodded, in fact, Lin Die’s subconscious mind was very strong. When Lin Ying and the others came to plead with her just now, Lin Die was about to break out. Lin Jiang’s words reminded her that she needed to deal with this little hidden danger of Lin Die. So the Lin siblings were a good vulnerability.
