"The timing is perfect!"
Hearing Kang Cangzi's message, Xu Taiping's face immediately lit up with delight. He then issued orders to Gongshu Bai, Battle General of the Jueming Demon-Suppressing Army:
"Mu Yun, from here on, the Jueming Demon-Suppressing Army will hold the Subdue Demons Formation!"
"Yang Hong, Jiang Fu! Lead the Red Blade Army and the Ziyang Army respectively to guard them."
Once the demon-suppressing battle formation was activated, only the Demon-Suppressing Army at its center needed to hold the formation to keep those five million suits of Nine Abysses Demon Armor sealed.
With the Red Blade Army and the Ziyang Army guarding them as well, it would be even more secure.
As soon as the order was issued, Mu Yun replied:
"Your subordinate obeys!"
Jiang Fu likewise answered and led the Ziyang Army to guard the front of the Demon-Suppressing Army's battle formation.
Yang Hong, however, was deeply unwilling:
"Xu Taiping! I want to face the Demon Mother with you!"
Without looking back, Xu Taiping sent a voice transmission:
"Military orders are no laughing matter!"
Even so, Yang Hong remained deeply unwilling:
"If you're making me wait here doing nothing, you might as well cut me down!"
Having finished relaying orders to the other battle generals, Xu Taiping turned toward Yang Hong and said gravely:
"Yang Hong, do you know whom the Demon Mother most wants to kill right now?"
Yang Hong froze for a moment, somewhat puzzled:

Xu Taiping said solemnly:
"You."
Under Yang Hong's astonished gaze, Xu Taiping continued:
"As long as you, Yang Hong, hold this place, the Demon Mother can forget about undoing the Subdue Demons Formation. A portion of her power will remain sealed."
"Do you think she doesn't want to kill you?"
Had an ordinary person heard this, they would surely have
