Chapter 382 379: Tiger Vanguard Seeks Help
Xuanzhen Taoist Palace,
In the main hall.
Chu Zhou sat at the top seat, with Bingluan Caihong next to him, and Xiaoji standing below him.
Xu Cheng and the others were all busy with their own things and did not show up.
Below was Zuo Qiu Tong who had rushed back. It had been a long time since we last saw him. His face showed a bit of weathered look and he looked a little tired.
Chu Zhou asked: “Elder Zuo, what happened that made you rush back in such a hurry?”
Zuo Qiutong took a deep breath and said, “Tiger Vanguard has caused public outrage this time. If the Palace Master doesn’t save him, I’m afraid he won’t be able to escape unscathed.”
Chu Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “Last time, didn’t you say that everything was going well and you were ready to attack the second oasis? How did you offend the public?”
“Besides, he also sent a lot of the Emperor’s Flowing Juice that I requested, so there shouldn’t be any shortage of supplies.”
Zuo Qiuyi smiled bitterly and quickly explained: “Speaking of which, it’s really not Tiger Vanguard’s fault. I am more responsible.”
“The demon clan is the world, that’s what we call it. They call themselves the Green State, mainly because when you look down from the sky, you can see green dots in the yellow sand.
In this place, every full-moon night, the Emperor’s fluid gathers and flows out, turning into food for the demon race, which is the most important reason why the demon race can grow rapidly.”
“But it’s not like there are no humans reproducing here!”
“Most of these people have fair skin and high nose bridges. The men are strong and good at running. The women have high noses and deep eyes and are graceful.
The demon tribe despised them as ‘white slaves’, and they were basically the source of blood and food for the demon tribe. It was common for them to be captured, killed or kidnapped.
There are also some big families in the demon country who would keep some white slave women and train them to dance for entertainment purposes. “
“It’s not that there aren’t some heroes among the white slaves. There was once a powerful person who almost uprooted the demon race for some unknown reason.
Although they were killed by the demons, the result was that the white slaves’ status was lowered to the point where they were no different from livestock.”
“Since then, the various tribes of the demon race have become even more wary of white slaves, and almost do not allow the human race to have powerful practitioners.”
“Besides, the environment of the Bicui Province is indeed not conducive to the cultivation of the human race. Over time, the human race has become increasingly weak.”
“That Tiger Vanguard naturally knows Palace Master Chu’s style of doing things, and naturally wants to protect these humans.
So, he asked me to start gathering white slaves, which actually attracted quite a few humans to come and work under me.”
“I felt sorry for them and didn’t want them to live a life of wanton cruelty, so I taught them knowledge and the method of cultivation.”
“The big and small demons under Tiger Vanguard also know that the human race is powerful, so they dare not go too far and get along relatively harmoniously.”
“This matter was originally not a big deal, but somehow, when we were attacking the second oasis, the demons there found out about it.
Seeing that the battle situation was precarious and they were about to lose, they chose to spread the news, which attracted monsters from other oases. “
“Then, using white slavery as an excuse, a situation of collective attack was formed.”
“Now, the Tiger Vanguard has retreated, defending the oasis that it initially occupied, and then used its great magical power to break through the space and send me back.
I dared not delay any longer, so I passed through Ruyi Gate and came back to report the details. “
“Before I left, the oasis called ‘Nautilus’ had been completely surrounded. Without support, I’m afraid it wouldn’t last long.”
Zuo Qiutong paused for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, “I should bear most of the responsibility for this matter. If I had been able to control myself, I’m afraid this would not have happened.”
“Also, I underestimated the reaction of those monsters.
I’m afraid that the damage that the human hero caused them back then was indeed a bit too severe.”
Chu Zhou was speechless. After a pause, he said, “You did the right thing. As a human being, it is only natural that you cannot bear to see your fellow tribesmen suffer!”
Zuo Qiutong hurriedly asked, “What should we do now? Should we save Tiger Vanguard or not?”
Chu Zhou turned his head, looked at Bingluan Caihong, and asked, “What do you think?”
Bing Luan replied with a half-smile: “In a sense, Tiger Vanguard should be considered as your subordinate. Isn’t it you who has the final say on whether to save him or not?”
Xiaoji said, “The problem now is that we have been preparing for the war against the sea tribe for a long time, and it is hard to say when we will have to fight.
In a one-on-one situation, our human race still has a great advantage and everyone is confident.
But if we drag the demon world into this now, it would be like fighting on two fronts, which would be a bit difficult.”
After a pause, she continued, “Otherwise, why don’t we just send troops to resolve Tiger Vanguard’s crisis and then bring them back?”
“This is absolutely not okay!”
Zuo Qiutong immediately denied it, and when he saw everyone looking at him, he explained, “I believe that if Xuanzhen Dao Palace takes action, it will be able to resolve the crisis of Tiger Vanguard and even teach the demon clan coalition a lesson.
However, we have to consider that if we really do this, the fact that Tiger Vanguard is backed by the human race will be exposed. “
“At this point, if we evacuate on our own initiative, it would seem that we have preserved our strength, but it would also be equivalent to giving up the oasis.”
“The demon world is extremely special. If there is no oasis as a frontier base, it will be very difficult to replenish supplies.”
“From now on, even if we defeat the Sea Clan, it will be ten times more difficult to march into Bicui Province.”
“Also, you have to consider another thing. If the human race takes action, it will be equivalent to revealing its own existence.
By then, I am afraid that the demons will cross the desert and spread the war to the human world.”
“Only then will it be a true two-front war, Alexander.”
His analysis made everyone’s face change, and they obviously thought of the worst outcome.
Before, Zhou Juetian’s ghost clan was wreaking havoc, and the problems in other directions were just minor ones, which actually did not cause much impact.
But now, the situation seems to be getting worse.
Xiaoji asked impatiently: “Don’t just scare people, then tell me what to do?”
Zuo Qiutong said: “If you ask me, the best way is to maintain a confrontation.
Let the Tiger Vanguard defend the Nautilus without intervening too much and wasting too many troops there.”
This is the most ideal situation, but it is also the most difficult to achieve. On the battlefield, no one dares to say what the final outcome will be.
Silence spread among the crowd. Everyone frowned and fell into deep thought. Even the heartless Bingluan Caihong was no exception.
Bingluan Caihong has a special identity and an even more special status. For so long, he seems to have been wandering outside the Xuanzhen Taoist Palace.
Instead, he travels around in a playful manner.
But after all, she was the one who initiated the Tiger Pioneer incident, and she was the one who acted as the go-between in reaching the final agreement.
She really couldn’t just sit there and watch!
So, after just a moment’s hesitation, she said, “Then, I’ll go!”
“After all, this matter was caused by me, and I have an obligation to make this trip, even though I hate the environment there.”
“You are just a demon. Although you can carry the banner, you will be alone in the end.
So, either don’t do it, or do it to the extreme.
In this case, we should go all out to solve the problem in the bud.”
Chu Zhou finally spoke, his words were as loud as thunder: “Xiao Ji?”
“Big Brother, I’m here!”
“Go and call your other brothers over, and then give orders to Xuanzhen Dao Palace to enter a full state of combat readiness.”
“Yes!”
“Zuoqiu Tong?” “Palace Master, please tell me…”
“I know that you, the Human Race War Command, have accumulated a lot of plans, and you must have been busy during your time in the demon race.
So go pick and choose, come up with one that works, and send it to me.”
“Palace Master, what is your combat goal?”
After a pause, Chu Zhou seemed to be thinking, and seemed to be very hesitant, and finally spoke: “Let’s take conquering the entire demon world as our strategic goal.”
Zuo Qiutong was obviously startled, but still said, “I’ll go right away!”
Finally, Chu Zhou looked at Bingluan Caihong again and said, “This time, I’m afraid I’m really going to light up your flag. I have to make it clear to you first!”
Bingluan Caihong seemed to be interested and asked, “How do you think of solving the problem of multi-racial integration?”
“How else can I solve this problem? Since ancient times, countless smart people have been unable to solve it. How can I solve this problem?”
“At best, we can follow the ancient heavenly way, where humans and demons coexist, and immortals and gods live together.
At that time, I will only judge right and wrong, not relatives, and I should be able to maintain a balance.”
Having said that, he looked at Bingluan Caihong again and said, “Daoyou, I want to ask you, what do you think of my Xuanzhen Dao Palace?”
“Xuanzhen Dao Palace? You built this immortal sect with your own hands, and you still want to ask me?”
“Just give your evaluation!”
“At least at this stage, I don’t see any major problems. Internal responsibilities are clear, promotion channels are obvious, and there are no obvious signs of forming cliques. Even if there is competition, it is benign.
The relationship between you two brothers is very close. Even if there are disputes, they will follow your lead.”
“This is actually the most important thing. If you can suppress everything, you can lead them forward.”
Having said that, she tilted her head again and said, “Of course, if you want to talk about problems, there are naturally some.
Most importantly, I think you are overprotective.”
“This universe, the universe and the myriad worlds, are full of dangers, so you have to let them face the storms so that they can grow at the fastest speed.”
Chu Zhou smiled bitterly, but his face became serious and he said, “Daoyou Caihong, this is a sign of recognition.”
“In that case, I would also like to ask, have you ever thought about officially joining the Xuanzhen Dao Palace?”
“Join Xuanzhen Dao Palace? In what capacity? What position are you going to give me?”
“Of course you are on an equal footing with me. You are a demon, and I am a human. Only when we join forces can the Xuanzhen Taoist Palace have the basis for the coexistence of humans and demons.
In the future, as long as we act fairly and provide guidance and publicity, we should be able to maintain the situation.”
Chu Zhou said with some embarrassment: “If you don’t mind, how about we become siblings?”
Bingluan Caihong looked strange: “I thought you wanted to become my Taoist partner?”
“Ahem, mainly because I’m embarrassed to say it. If you’re willing, it’s not impossible.”
“You think beautiful!”
“Is that the decision then?”
“Let’s talk about it later. I have to go to Bitui Province first. I can’t let Tiger Vanguard die like this.”
As she said this, she turned into a stream of light. Wherever she spread, the space froze and she disappeared into the void.
After she left, Chu Zhou couldn’t help but chuckle.
However, the smile on his face had completely disappeared, and he became serious, even a little gloomy.
Variables are indeed everywhere!
Fate really likes to cause trouble for people!
The incident with the demon clan completely disrupted the original rhythm.
No one likes such an emergency.
Zuoqiu Tong was right. In fact, for the demon clan, the best outcome would be to maintain a standoff.
But Chu Zhou still asked him to make plans based on conquering the entire Bitui Province. This means seeking the middle and getting the lower, and seeking the upper and getting the middle.
He himself did not dare to think about it and directly occupied the Bicui State, but since he was going to take action, he could not show weakness.
The monsters must be made to see how powerful the human race is, a power that they cannot even dream of, so that they will behave themselves in the future.
And this involves the topic of coexistence of humans and demons. Chu Zhou’s invitation to Bingluan and Caihong was not a whim, but the result of careful consideration.
The transition from one person in power to two kings coexisting will inevitably cause turmoil, and the same is true in the Xuanzhen Taoist Palace.
However, Chu Zhou believed that he could control it, and his fellow junior brothers and sisters would not object.
In this way, if we can really attract Bingluan Caihong to officially join Xuanzhen Taoist Palace, it would be the most important step.
With the name of the Ice Luan rainbow beast and the power of the phoenix, a great banner was raised in the demon world, which made it possible to make all the demons submit.
This is also the basis for Xuanzhen Taoist Palace to completely conquer the demon clan’s world.
Even Chu Zhou never thought of killing all the monsters.
Not to mention that it was impossible, Chu Zhou also didn’t want to commit such a huge sin of killing.
The clearer his thoughts became, the clearer his ideas became. Chu Zhou felt as if he had suddenly become enlightened.
Since it is inevitable, then we must move forward bravely. Xuanzhen Taoist Palace must fight this battle.
Of course, when the news came out, the entire Alliance of All Beings was in an uproar.
Before, Chu Zhou forced himself to go through the preparations for war against the sea clan, but that was fine. They couldn’t resist and could only accept it.
But now, suddenly, many people jumped up and were unwilling to send troops to the demon world which was nowhere to be found.
No matter how powerful the Xuanzhen Taoist Palace is, no matter how domineering Chu Zhou is, they can’t really ignore advice, right?
When this kind of thought became a trend and everyone’s strength was gathered together, it dared them to make trouble.
Chu Zhou was not unhappy, and even couldn’t help nodding. At least this meant that they still had their own ideas and dared to fight for their own interests.
If the situation was not urgent, Chu Zhou would not be willing to go to war with the demon clan.
But now, the arrow is on the string and it has to be shot.
Therefore, he used the most direct move, doubling his military achievements and opening up pre-sale rights in New South Wales.
Moreover, Chu Zhou also hung up a map of Xinzhou in the Taixu Illusionary Realm, which showed not only mountains and rivers, but also spiritual vein nodes and mineral resources.
Just these are enough to make those big forces excited.
Better, more territory, who doesn’t want it?
What’s more, Chu Zhou was really generous and generous this time. Military merits are so rare, but this time he doubled the reward.
How many people can resist such a great temptation!
Immediately, the five-member group of the All Living Beings Alliance completely rebelled. They actively responded to the call of the Xuanzhen Taoist Palace and began to mobilize more troops and immortal cultivators.
When other sects saw that the situation was not right, they immediately changed their attitude and responded positively.
But this time, Chu Zhou did not wait, but chose to attack in the shortest time possible.
Just kidding, the demon clan’s world is not the sea clan’s world. Although it is a little hotter and the environment is a little worse, it is still on the earth.
Of course, there was no need for so much preparation. Chu Zhou directly pulled up the trained human army, drove the Sky Patrolling Boat, prepared the supplies, and then charged out.
