Chapter 182 : The Plan
Even though Shang Ziling had previously crossed swords with Wu Wo, she couldn't help but be amazed.
Although she was born with a sword physique and had grown up amidst praise from her sect, always believing her sword cultivation talent to be among the best, at this moment she had to admit that these few sword cultivators from Lingqing Sect were truly... extraordinary.
Their rate of progress was too fast.
Even she couldn't keep up.
Shang Ziling took a deep breath, gripping her Qinghong Sword tightly. Greatly inspired, she took a few spirit-replenishing pills and then charged headlong into the demon beast group again, fighting even more vigorously than before!
In the single-minded brains of sword cultivators, any deficiency in cultivation could be attributed to a lack of experience. Suddenly, it seemed as if all the Ten Thousand Swords Sect disciples had received great encouragement (provocation), killing demon beasts more zealously than anyone else.
In this harmonious atmosphere of everyone trying to outdo each other, the fierce oncoming demon beast group was quickly annihilated without a trace.
Zhao Yun said, "We got separated from Tianyan Sect and Ten Thousand Swords Sect. They should be further inside, and the situation there is probably not optimistic either."
Shang Ziling said in a deep voice, "If that's the case, let's go find them and join up with the other two sects."
While they were discussing, Chu Sang and her group efficiently cleaned up the battlefield as usual, putting all useful items into their storage bags and feeding the demon cores to Xiao Bai, Hong Niang, and the others. After the two sides finished discussing and determined the route, the various sects continued to press inward.
After everyone left, several figures appeared belatedly from behind the trees. It was the group of rogue cultivators who had been following all along.
The demon beast groups had been mostly cleared out, so there was no danger, but all the good things had also been taken away. Qin Xixue was a bit displeased, but she couldn't dwell on it too much now. She withdrew her gaze and looked intently at the red-robed man beside her, "Que Yao, are you sure this plan will work?"
"If we make good use of these sect disciples, we should have some unexpected good harvests."
The smile in Que Yao's eyes was somewhat chilling.
As one of the current Demon Emperor's hundreds of offspring, he was clearly the strongest, having broken through to the Divine Transformation stage after a hundred years of diligent cultivation. Yet, just because he was a mixed-blood born to a red fox clan, he was unable to inherit the throne and had always been ignored by the Demon Emperor.
The position of Demon Realm heir had been inherited by that useless waste, but fortunately, that waste didn't live long before dying, giving him another chance to compete.
Recently, the Demon Emperor had also been severely injured. Now, with various forces in the Demon Realm in chaotic battle, if he could seize this opportunity well, he would have a chance to inherit the Demon Emperor's throne and become the next ruler of the Demon Realm!
Many great demon kings wanted to take advantage of this chaos to seize the throne.
Among them, a great demon king with very impressive strength had emerged.
Causing a bloody storm in the Demon Realm, the Demon Emperor and his subordinates used many methods to finally drive this creature out of the Demon Realm. They even deliberately released this great demon king into the cultivation world. On one hand, it could cause severe damage to the cultivation world, and on the other hand, they could use the power of cultivators to eliminate this demon king. It was truly killing two birds with one stone, benefiting the fisherman!
The reason Que Yao had persuaded Qin Xixue to follow all the way here was to use the power of cultivators to eliminate the demon king.
Once these foolish sect disciples had depleted most of the demon king's strength, he would emerge halfway to seize the demon king's demon core and then present it to the Demon Emperor!
At that time, the credit would naturally fall to him.
The Demon Emperor would surely look at him with new eyes and bestow upon him the status of Demon Realm heir!
However, what Que Yao hadn't expected was that Qin Xixue was no longer a sect disciple. As rogue cultivators, it was very difficult for them to integrate with the sect disciples, which added considerable difficulty.
They could only follow along for now and then seize the opportunity later...
