While Chu Fei was in seclusion cultivating, Iron Fan Pass—the checkpoint Azure Cloud City had once used to guard against Red Pine City—once again fulfilled its proper role: it blocked the Dragon People's first wave of attacks.

And this was also thanks to Chu Fei's "strategic planning"—he had provided auxiliary means of killing Demon Spirits. The methods previously developed to detect Eerie Spirits could also detect Demon Spirits, leaving them nowhere to hide.

In particular, the fact that Demon Spirits could be eaten and could strengthen the soul drove many experts mad with excitement.

However, the situation with the Demon Spirits was rapidly spiraling out of control. Demon Spirits were not human; they did not have to pass through Iron Fan Pass to "enter the pass"!

After the first wave of Demon Spirit attacks was thwarted, the Dragon People directed the Demon Spirits around Iron Fan Pass, over towering mountains and rugged ridges, and into the interior of the Azure Cloud City Cluster.

Faced with this situation, Zheng Chengan gathered all the experts for a meeting in Iron Fan Pass's temporary command hall.

At the meeting, Zheng Chengan looked at the somewhat chaotic crowd and calmly said, "Everyone, the Demon Spirits crossing Iron Fan Pass and entering the Azure Cloud City Cluster was something we anticipated beforehand.
