Though they weren't keeping watch near the demons' lair, Mo Lei believed the people on Chi Xue's side wouldn't dare come back. Ling Tian's group now had the strength to threaten them. To capture the demons, Chi Xue and his allies would have to badly wound most of them, but many demons remained uninjured, especially those at Quasi-Sage Seventh Rank. It would take Chi Xue's group a long time to wound them all, giving Ling Tian's people enough time to arrive and drive them away.

That way, we can stop them from simply taking the injured demons by force." Ling Tian spoke casually. Seeing Mo Lei and the others looking thoughtful, he nodded. "Exactly. If too many demons are badly wounded while we're away, Chi Xue and the others could simply capture them by force. For instance, they could have the God Devouring Body and all their other top experts tie down the demons who weren't badly wounded while the rest took action.
