The Defense Line Crumbled, Putting Pressure on the Heavenly Court!

Taixu Profound Realm.

The Ye Imperial Clan.

The patriarch Ye Shitian, sat in his study, his face terribly gloomy.

Before him were battle reports from various regions of the Demon Extermination Alliance.

The situation is better elsewhere.

However, the Eastern Continent is not optimistic.

The Devil Race army has just broken through the last line of defense and has begun a full-scale invasion of the Eastern Continent.

Of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Eastern Continent Guard, only about 100,000 remained in the end!

The battle report in Ye Shitian's hand seemed to become heavy, making it hard for him to breathe.

As the head of the Ye Imperial Clan, he was well aware of the impact of this defeat.

This was also a huge failure for the Demon Extermination Alliance.

As the leader of the Demon Extermination Alliance, he will undoubtedly face immense pressure!

But he had no way to shift the blame onto others.

Because the commander of the Eastern Continent Garrison Army has perished together with a Devil Race general!

This made him feel extremely angry.

What are you talking about, dying?

If you die, who will I blame?

He clenched his fists tightly, then finally let them relax in frustration!

Ye Shitian took a deep breath and glanced out the window.

The situation is constantly changing.

He had to find a solution, a way to turn the situation around.

The atmosphere in the study was so oppressive it was hard to breathe. Ye Shitian's eyes were closed, as if he was deep in thought.

He slowly uttered two words:

"The Heavenly Court!"

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the study door, and a guard from the Ye Imperial Clan entered, bowing respectfully and saying, "Master, I have important news to report."

Ye Shitian opened his eyes and said calmly, "Speak."

"The Ji Family, the Jiang Family, the Zhao family, and the Qi family and Cao Family from the Profound Yellow Great World... all the major Lineage have come to see you, their patriarch!"

The guards bowed respectfully, not daring to look at Ye Shitian even once.

He knew the head of the family was in a very bad mood!

Upon hearing this news, Ye Shitian frowned. The fact that these Lineage had come at this time clearly indicated that they wanted to gauge the attitude of the Ye Imperial Clan.

He waved his hand to dismiss the guards, then stood up, his eyes narrowing.

He knew that the scale and intensity of this Devil Race invasion were unprecedented, and the Demon Extermination Alliance was already in an extremely difficult situation.

Although there were no problems with the other defense lines except for the Eastern Continent, it was only with the help of the Heavenly Court that they were able to hold on.

And don't forget, their name is the Demon Extermination Alliance.

Defense alone isn't enough!

They must take the initiative to truly drive the Devil Race out of the Taixu Profound Realm.

However, the current situation is far from optimistic.

Although the Heavenly Court is powerful, it cannot intervene to help them indefinitely.

Otherwise, an even more terrible war might break out between the Heavenly Court and the Devil Race.

That's a situation they don't want to see.

Therefore, they must find a solution as soon as possible, a way to completely defeat the Devil Race.

Ye Shitian's eyes flickered, and he finally took a deep breath before leaving the study.

He knew that at this point, he could no longer sit idly by.

He must step forward and lead the Ye Imperial Clan and the Demon Extermination Alliance to fight against the Devil Race!

Soon, Ye Shitian arrived at the main hall of the Ye Imperial Clan.

At this moment, many Lineage representatives had gathered in the main hall. They were all family heads or Clan Leader from various powerful forces.

When they saw Ye Shitian walk in, they should have at least bowed or greeted him.

However, none of the family heads stood up; they remained seated, motionless.

Especially the head of the Ji Family, whose eyes were frighteningly deep.

Because the commander of the Eastern Continent Guard is the deputy head of their Ji Family.

However, he didn't rush to speak; he wanted to see what the Ye Family would say.

Ye Shitian naturally knew that these people were giving him the cold shoulder.

But there was nothing he could do. As the leader of the Demon Extermination Alliance, he was responsible for this incident.

However, he was a seasoned veteran, and he simply pretended not to see it.

His gaze swept over the crowd, and he said in a deep voice, "Everyone, you've all seen the current situation."

Upon hearing this, everyone remained silent.

Seeing this, Ye Shitian continued, "I know that the current situation is very unfavorable for us. If we are not careful, the entire Taixu Profound Realm may be plunged into an abyss of no return. However, we cannot give up because of this."

"We cannot allow the Devil Race to ravage our land, nor can we allow our land to be devastated."

"Therefore, I have decided that we must take the initiative and launch a counterattack against the Devil Race!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback, and then began to discuss it amongst themselves.

Take the initiative?

Are they truly capable of taking the initiative?

If we could, we would have already launched an attack and destroyed the Devil Race's stronghold!

But it just won't work!

They're struggling just to defend!

Seeing everyone's reaction, Ye Shitian had already anticipated it. He said calmly, "I know you may feel that our situation is very unfavorable right now, but we cannot give up because of this..."

"Ye Family, wait, let's not talk about this pointless matter. I just want to ask, why hasn't the Heavenly Court sent any troops to support the Eastern Continent's Garrison Army since the start of the war?"

Ye Shitian's words were interrupted by the head of the Ji Family!

This question caused Ye Shitian's expression to change slightly.

He knew that the Ji Family was very dissatisfied with the Heavenly Court's decision not to send troops, but there was nothing he could do about it.

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Ji Family, I understand your feelings, but the Heavenly Court has its own reasons for not sending troops. We must trust the Heavenly Court and believe that they will lend a helping hand at the critical moment."

Upon hearing this, the head of the Ji Family sneered and said, "Believe? How can we believe? The defenses of the Eastern Continent have collapsed, and our Ji Family's deputy head has also died in battle. How can you expect us to believe in the Heavenly Court now?"

Ye Shitian frowned, knowing that the words of the Ji Family patriarch represented the thoughts of many Lineage.

They have now lost trust in the Heavenly Court and confidence in the Demon Extermination Alliance.

The reason for continuing the fight is that it's impossible to hand over the Profound Yellow Great World to the Devil Race.

"Ji Family, don't worry. I'm also very upset about what happened, which is why I said we should attack the Devil Race."

"Attack the Devil Race? Do you think we have that capability right now?" The Ji Family patriarch sneered, his face full of disdain.

Ye Shitian frowned slightly. He knew that the words of the Ji Family patriarch represented the thoughts of many people. They had lost faith in the Demon Extermination Alliance and were full of doubt about the Heavenly Court.

He smirked and said in a deep voice, "I know that our current forces are insufficient to attack the Devil Race, but you must all be wondering why the Heavenly Court doesn't just send Saint to directly sweep through the Devil Race?"

Everyone was taken aback and looked at Ye Shitian.

Indeed, this is a question that has always puzzled them.

"Actually, I don't know either, so I'm going to put some pressure on the Heavenly Court. Before, the pressure wasn't enough, but now that the Eastern Continent is fighting to the death, we have a chance!"

Ye Shitian spoke slowly.
