Something Big May Be Happening (2)

"What's wrong?" Yue Qianchou found a chair and sat down.

"A few months ago, eight sects of the demonic path were massacred. Was that your doing?" Hundred Charm Demoness asked. She knew it was him, but she still wanted to confirm. Yue Qianchou had asked her for information about the various sects at the time, so he naturally didn't intend to hide it from her. He nodded and said, "I led the men to do it. What's wrong? Did I mess things up?"

Hundred Charm Demoness gave him a deep look and said, "You did the right thing. The Myriad Demon Palace's plan to bring the Yan family father and son's power under its control was indeed ruined by you. Eight sects were slaughtered in First Company, and the Black Society caused panic throughout the entire demonic path. Everyone was afraid that they would be the ninth sect to fall. So the entire demonic path put pressure on the Myriad Demon Palace. No matter how strong the Myriad Demon Palace is, it cannot stand on its own foundation and go against the entire demonic path. Even if it gains the strength of the Yan family father and son, it will probably lose even more. Unable to withstand the pressure, the Myriad Demon Palace finally led the demonic path and the Righteous Path to attack together. The Yan family father and son was on the verge of collapse, but unexpectedly, someone intervened and helped them."

Upon hearing this, Yue Qianchou breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want the Yan family father and son to be wiped out so quickly. His plan was that the Yan family father and son's power could not be wiped out, but it also could not be left untouched. If the Righteous Path wanted to sit back and watch the demonic path take action, he would find a way to provoke the Righteous Path. Conversely, if the demonic path did not exert any effort, he would also provoke them, just like when he wiped out the eight demonic sects last time.

If the Yan family father and son can't hold on, that won't do either. He'll have to send troops to help them and hold back Righteous and Demonic paths. If the Yan family father and son are too strong, that won't do either. Then he'll have to help the Righteous and Demonic paths suppress them. However, this last possible hope is rather slim. The Yan family father and son's power is not yet sufficient to defeat Righteous and Demonic paths.

In short, he would lash out at anyone who slacked off, and he would help whichever side was struggling, trying his best to prolong the battle. This stalemate would continue until his strength had increased enough, at which point he would come out and fish in troubled waters.

Damn it! Could there be someone else with the same intentions as me? ***, that's too insidious! Yue Qianchou frowned and asked, "Who helped the Yan family father and son?"

"I didn't know that before!" Hundred Charm Demoness Yao Ji shook her head, her delicate brows furrowed, and slowly said, "Nearly a hundred experts at the Tribulation Transcendence stage suddenly appeared in the Cultivation World, many of them at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage. Just as the Righteous and Demonic paths attacked the island where the Yan family father and son were hiding, this group of experts seemed to descend from the sky, thwarting the combined attack of the two paths in one fell swoop. The strangest thing is that no one recognizes so many experts, as if they have never appeared in the Cultivation World of the Huaxia Empire. At the time, I even suspected that it was the people behind you who made the move."

"Cough cough!" Yue Qianchou coughed dryly and said awkwardly, "Master's wife is too good at making connections. The Yan family father and son would love to skin me alive. Why would I help them?"

Hundred Charm Demoness pondered and said, "I also think it shouldn't be like this. Everyone was guessing the identities of those people when suddenly Myriad Demon Palace remembered the identity of one of the late Tribulation Transcendence stage Chou Wuyuan."

Yue Qianchou narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Who are these people?"

"In his early years, Chou Wuyuan traveled to the Diron Empire, which is outside the Huaxia Empire. The Diron Empire has a famous Imperial Preceptor who is said to have profound cultivation. Chou Wuyuan met him once by chance. Many years have passed, and he had almost forgotten about him. The expert he recognizes now, who is at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage, is that Di Rong Kingdom teacher," said Hundred Charm Demoness.

"Ah!" Yue Qianchou exclaimed in surprise, "So, the Yan family father and son and son have colluded with the Cultivation World of foreign countries? That can't be right! Don't the Cultivation Worlds of various countries have an agreement that they should not arbitrarily enter the sphere of influence of other countries, otherwise the various countries will unite to kill them?"

"There was such an agreement. If it were just the Diron Empire, it wouldn't matter. But because Chou Wuyuan recognized the Imperial Preceptor, everyone noticed something amiss from the different clothing of the nearly one hundred experts. They were dressed in the attire of various foreign countries. These people were clearly a coalition of Cultivation World from different nations. Think about it, if all the countries broke the agreement from years ago, which of them would be afraid of the agreement to unite and kill them? What use would that agreement be then?" said Hundred Charm Demoness.

"How could this happen?" Yue Qianchou said, somewhat dazed. He hadn't expected this to happen, making his plans difficult to execute. He had finally obtained the Restriction Breaking Pill and was about to be able to openly swagger around, but now some complete strangers had come to join the fun. Plans really do often go awry. Yue Qianchou sighed and said, "Master's wife, why did those people come at this time? Do you know what their purpose is?"

"We still don't know what they're up to, but the entire Huaxia Cultivation World is on high alert. This isn't a domestic conflict; it involves an invasion by foreign enemies. The Righteous and Demonic paths have set aside their differences and are in heated discussions, preparing to form an alliance to jointly resist the invaders. If..." At this point, Hundred Charm Demoness suddenly stood up. Although her clothes were sexy and alluring, she showed no trace of coquetry. This beautiful woman looked resolutely out the window and said firmly, "If a great war really breaks out, and the situation is unfavorable to the Huaxia Cultivation World, the forces that my Illusion Demon Palace has hidden for many years will no longer be hidden. We will do our utmost to resist the foreign enemies together with the Righteous and Demonic paths. Although I, Hundred Charm Demoness, am a woman, I will not back down, even to the death."

"Uh..." Yue Qianchou stared at her blankly for a long time before slowly nodding and saying, "Yes! No matter how much our brothers quarrel, it's still our own family matter. Blood is thicker than water. Even if we split up the family, we still share the same surname. Others who come to interfere may have nice reasons, saying they're helping someone, but they all have ulterior motives. Who knows what they're really up to? Anyone with a brain knows they're just trying to harm others for their own benefit. By the way, Master's wife, what's that group up to these days?"

"They haven't made any moves since they made that move, as if they're holding back on something. If I'm not mistaken..." Hundred Charm Demoness said, then turned her gaze to Yue Qianchou and said, "It might be because of you."

"Because of me? How is that possible?" Yue Qianchou was stunned for a moment, then stood up and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "Master's wife, I really have nothing to do with those people. If you don't believe me, I can swear to God."

"It's not about you personally, but about the power behind you," Hundred Charm Demoness explained. "Think about it. The Yan family father and son naturally know they're imposters when it comes to the Black Society, but who is the real Black Society? There's a hidden force in the Huaxia Cultivation World. Since those outsiders have colluded with the Yan family father and son, they must have learned the truth from them. Sometimes, exposed strength isn't scary; what's scary is hidden, unknown strength. Its occasional manifestation is both ferocious and unclear. This kind of strength is often the most unsettling, making people hesitant to act rashly."

Yue Qianchou touched his nose and chuckled awkwardly, "Is the power behind me really as terrifying as my master's wife says?"

"To be able to plunder the Spirit Stone mines of the Daluo Sect without anyone noticing, and to wipe out eight demonic sects in a single day, not to mention having a master at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage Realm, even if he's not terrifying, his strength won't be weak." Hundred Charm Demoness stared intently at him and said, "Since you call me Master's Wife, then don't blame me for saying some harsh things. I don't care who's behind you, if the Huaxia Cultivation World is in trouble, I don't ask you to pull them out to help, but you're not allowed to be an enemy of the Huaxia Cultivation World. Otherwise, don't blame me for not giving Hao Sansi face. Even if I can't kill you, I will definitely expose your secrets myself. You can think about the consequences yourself."

Threatening me! Yue Qianchou's mouth gaped slightly; he was speechless...
