Chapter 738: If He Enters Saint Realm Unimpeded, His Strength Could Crush Even Some Long-Established Saint Realm Experts
Five Saints Demon Country.
At the border of the five territories.
Here stood a primitive and crude great hall.
How primitive?
This hall was constructed entirely from massive stone blocks.
These blocks were completely unpolished, their surfaces exceedingly rough.
Moreover, the hall had no walls.
Merely several pillars supporting a massive stone slab formed this hall.
Yet now, within this hall, the five strongest Demon Saints of the Five Demon Clans had gathered.
You Clan, Kuang Clan, An Clan, Shi Clan, Hui Clan!
Among the Five Demon Clans, the You Clan possessed the greatest strength, thus holding the highest position.
The Kuang Clan was the most formidable in battle, ranking second.
As for the An Clan, Shi Clan, and Hui Clan, their strengths were comparable.
Kuang Ni was a burly giant demon standing five zhang tall.
He slammed his palm on the table and said discontentedly, "Why did you summon me here?"
"I was busy fighting the Fan Tian Saint!"
Shi Xie sneered, "Always thinking about fighting. What's the point? Can it help find the Ancestral Demon Land?"
Kuang Ni shot to his feet in an instant, closing the distance to Shi Xie in one stride, and lifted the latter with one hand, "What's the point? If you can't explain, I'll beat you into a pile of corpse pieces!"
Shi Xie trembled all over, his face turning ugly.
He knew Kuang Ni truly dared to strike.
The Kuang Clan demons were notoriously battle-crazed.
They could skip meals, forego sleep, and abstain from mating.
But tell them they couldn't fight?
That was unacceptable.
They had to fight at least once daily, otherwise, their entire bodies would feel as if ants were crawling beneath their skin.
You Lian frowned, "Kuang Ni, enough. Stop this nonsense."
Kuang Ni shook his head, "No way. I want to beat him up."
You Lian massaged his temples, "After today's business is concluded, I'll fight you."
Kuang Ni laughed loudly, directly throwing Shi Xie aside, "Fine, fine. I'll spare him this once."
"You'd better not go back on your word."
Among all the Demon Saints, only You Lian was slightly stronger than him.
Therefore, he often followed You Lian around, challenging him to fights.
Shi Xie rose, covered in dust, and returned to his original position.
An Wang said calmly, "You Lian, explain why you summoned us."
"I still need to find the murderer of my son. I have no time to waste here."
Hui Zhuo chuckled sinisterly, "Five Saints Conferences are rarely held. You Lian must have his reasons for summoning us. An Wang, I know you're anxious, but be patient."
"The murderer will be found eventually. There's no need for such haste."
You Lian glanced around at the four Demon Saints, sighing inwardly.
The Five Saints Demon Country was indeed powerful, that was fact.
But it was deeply divided.
His strength was slightly superior, and the You Clan was the strongest, allowing him to suppress these four Demon Saints.
If his strength were slightly inferior, the Five Saints Demon Country would have five entirely different voices!
Truly a case of multiple factions issuing conflicting orders.
"I have summoned all of you for only one reason."
"Another human Nine Tribulation Supreme has emerged."
"I estimate he will attempt to break through to the Saint Realm soon."
"This time, I ask all of you to consider countermeasures."
"There can be no more Saints, especially not such a heaven-defying one."
You Lian stated gravely.
"Who is it?" Shi Xie inquired.
"Could it be..." Hui Zhuo pondered thoughtfully.
You Lian casually flicked his hand. Black energy surged, swiftly forming a human face.
"Shen Mo, a human Supreme."
"He has thwarted many of our operations."
"Now it seems, this person's talent far exceeds what we knew."
"If he enters Saint Realm unimpeded, his strength could crush even some long-established Saint Realm experts!"
"Shen Mo?"
"I remember this person well!"
Kuang Ni abruptly stood up, his eyes lighting up.
As if hearing something fascinating.
"My Kuang Clan's Kuang Lie was killed by him in the Qianyuan Imperial Dynasty!"
Kuang Ni's eyes gleamed fiercely, "I think we should give him a chance to grow to Saint Realm. That would be perfect."
"Then I'll go kill him."
You Lian, An Wang, Shi Xie, and Hui Zhuo all wore speechless expressions.
You Lian massaged his temples, "We are discussing how to kill this person before he ascends to Saint Realm."
"Kuang Ni, stop talking."
Kuang Ni snorted coldly, "No, I want to speak."
You Lian held up two fingers, "Twice. I'll fight you twice."
Kuang Ni laughed loudly, "Then I won't speak. Continue."
You Lian then said, "Speak. How shall we deal with this person?"
Shi Xie chuckled sinisterly, "What's so difficult? Force them to hand over Shen Mo!"
You Lian frowned, "Elaborate."
Shi Xie sneered, "Surround a major power. We'll withdraw only if they hand over Shen Mo."
"The human race is selfish. As long as they can preserve their own lives, they won't care about others."
"Especially such a dazzling genius. His rapid growth to this level has already stirred jealousy among other Supremes."
"Moreover, the human race, demon race, and dragon race have always had minor conflicts. With a little provocation from us, they'll turn on each other."
Hui Zhuo chuckled sinisterly, "Excellent plan, Shi Xie. You're vicious enough!"
Shi Xie laughed eerily, "Not at all. Just slightly more vicious than you."
Hui Zhuo's face darkened, "That won't do. When it comes to sinister schemes, I'm far more vicious!"
Shi Xie also grew displeased, "You just said I was vicious enough. Now you claim you're more vicious. What do you mean?"
In the blink of an eye, the two demons began arguing.
Fiercely debating who was more sinister.
You Lian repeatedly massaged his temples.
"Enough, enough. I've decided. We'll adopt Shi Xie's plan."
"However, have you selected a target?"
You Lian glanced around.
Hui Zhuo quickly said, "I think Xuanyin Cave Heaven is suitable. Let's attack Xuanyin Cave Heaven!"
An Wang, who had been mostly silent, sneered coldly, "Your Hui Clan has been fighting Xuanyin Cave Heaven for centuries. You obviously want to use us to help you conquer it."
Hui Zhuo's thoughts were exposed, but he wasn't angered, merely chuckling eerily.
You Lian shook his head, "Switch to the demon race or dragon race."
Shi Xie sneered, "Then the Blood God Demon Court."
"The Blood God Demon Court is a demon race power. Moreover, the Divine Phoenix and others have already gone to the Void to rescue the Rune Ancestor and Nine Yin Saintess."
"If a Demon Saint makes a move, the Blood God Demon Court will surely be unable to resist."
"However, it would be difficult for us to appear in the Tiannan Archipelago."
"The Northern Domain's suppression grand formation still exists."
You Lian said calmly, "I can resolve this."
"But it requires a Demon Saint to expend all their strength, requiring at least a thousand years to recover."
Shi Xie chuckled, "My Shi Clan can assist."
You Lian shook his head, "Your Shi Clan's hastily advanced Demon Saints won't suffice. It must be a Tongtian Realm Demon Saint."
Shi Xie was speechless, "Then it's impossible."
You Lian stated calmly, "My You Clan will provide a Demon Saint's power. Who is willing to apply pressure in the Tiannan Archipelago?"
Kuang Ni stood up, "My Kuang Clan..."
You Lian, "You be quiet."
Hui Zhuo raised his hand, "My Hui Clan can provide a Demon Saint."
"Good. It's settled then." You Lian nodded. "Meeting adjourned."
