I've waited for you for a thousand years, and I've lived this life just to meet you

Su Yu'er gazed at this familiar yet unfamiliar land, her eyes deep and filled with complex and indescribable ripples.

Thousands of years have passed, and this place remains the same.

The Demon Subduing Pass is still the life and death line that concerns the fate of billions of lives!

If this barrier is breached, the demon army will march straight in like a flood that breaks through a dam, wreaking havoc on the five continents of the fairy world!

Because of this, immortals and demons have been fighting for tens of thousands of years around this pass, with blood staining the yellow sand and corpses forming mountains.

This ancient pass has witnessed countless tragic battles and buried countless heroic souls of mankind.

It is precisely because of its standing that the fairyland behind it has a moment of peace and prosperity.

Just as Su Yu'er was sighing, Xiao Mohan's voice brought her back to reality: "Madam, let's go down and take a look at the Human Race Hall."

"Well, let's go."

As soon as she finished speaking, when Su Yu'er was about to turn around, she suddenly caught a glimpse of two figures rushing in from outside the Demon Subduing Pass. They were actually coming from the direction of the battlefield between the two worlds and rushing straight into the human defense area!

Her heart sank suddenly and she stopped and stared.

In an instant, the enchanting red light in her eyes flashed, and her sight penetrated the distance like lightning, locking onto the two figures.

"Gu Liangyun?"

The moment she saw the face of one of them clearly, Su Yuer's pupils suddenly shrank and she screamed in surprise.

Xuanyuan Yehua, who was standing by, turned around when he heard the sound, his face full of surprise: "Little sister, what did you say?"

Su Yu'er's eyes followed the two figures as they entered the Demon Subduing Pass. Her voice was filled with disbelief and solemnity: "Fourth Brother! It's Gu Liangyun! I saw Gu Liangyun and a strange man, entering the defense zone directly from the battlefield between the two realms!"

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like throwing a huge rock into calm water, and everyone's heart was shocked.

"Gu Liangyun is not dead?!"

Xuanyuan Yetian cried out in surprise, his face full of surprise and doubt.

Xuanyuan Yehua was also shocked and said in amazement: "How is this possible?! Even if Gu Liangyun is not dead, the defense formation of the Demon Subduing Pass is activated! It is impossible for anyone to pass through..."

Before he finished speaking, everyone exchanged a knowing look.

A cold light flashed in Xiao Mohan's eyes, and his icy voice cut through the air: "That means the defensive formation of the Demon Subduing Pass has been destroyed!"

"Quick! Go to the Human Race Hall!"

Xuanyuan Yeyun made a prompt decision.

Without further hesitation, everyone followed Xuanyuan Yeyun and quickly rushed down the city wall. They turned into several streams of light and rushed towards the majestic and solemn palace in the center of the ancient city.

From a distance, the palace that symbolizes the human fortress came into view.

Almost at the moment they arrived at the palace, Immortal Emperor Wuhen and his five companions also arrived on the other side.

Xuanyuan Yeyun immediately put on a smile and saluted: "Brother Wuhen, long time no see!"

"Brother Xuanyuan, how are you?"

Immortal Emperor Wuhen bowed in return, his gaze swept across the crowd, finally landing on Su Yu'er and Xiao Mohan, with a hint of inquiry and understanding in his eyes.

"Brother Xuanyuan, these two must be your sister and brother-in-law, the renowned Goddess of Heaven and the Dragon Prince in the Immortal Realm."

"Exactly!"

Xuanyuan Yeyun smiled and turned sideways, introducing: "These people are all disciples of the Hanyu Palace and the Cangjian Sect under the command of the couple."

"Hanyu Palace?! Hidden Sword Sect?!"

Immortal Emperor Wuhen nodded slightly, his tone tinged with approval, "You arrived really quickly. You are actually the first sect to arrive at the Demon Subduing Pass."

Xuanyuan Yeyun nodded with a hint of pride: "We received the news yesterday and set off early this morning. In an instant, we arrived at the Demon Subduing Pass."

As soon as these words were spoken, Immortal Emperor Wuhen and the five powerful men beside him were stunned, and a trace of surprise that was difficult to conceal flashed across their eyes.

Jiangmoguan is a strategic border area, and this speed...

It’s incredible!

Immortal Emperor Wuhen suppressed the curiosity that surged in his heart and changed the subject: "You haven't settled down yet, right?"

"no!"

Xuanyuan Yeyun turned his gaze to Immortal Emperor Wuhen and asked, "Brother Wuhen, where did you go just now?"

Immortal Emperor Wuhen's expression suddenly darkened, and he said solemnly, "The demonic evil has broken through the seal and is poised to return at any moment! The situation is urgent, which is why I personally led a patrol to inspect the key points of the defense formation."

"oh?!"

Xuanyuan Yeyun's eyes flashed, and he immediately told him what he had just seen: "Brother Wuhen, when we were on the city wall just now, we saw with our own eyes two people who actually entered the Demon Subduing Pass directly from the direction of the battlefield between the two realms!"

"what?!"

Immortal Emperor Wuhen and the five powerful men behind him were speechless at the same time, with disbelief written all over their faces.

Lei Gang's face was filled with anxiety. He asked urgently, "Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan, which direction are you looking at?"

Su Yu'er thought for a moment and said with certainty, "Northwest direction."

Immortal Emperor Wuhen's brows knitted into a knot. "Isn't that the node we just repaired, number 37? Apparently, there's also a northwest node... which corresponds to..."

His eyes were like lightning, suddenly shooting towards Lei Gang.

Lei Gang's face turned pale, and he blurted out: "Reporting to the Immortal Emperor, it should be node 103!"

Immortal Emperor Wuhen's voice was icy: "Lei Gang, who is in charge of patrolling the northwest region today?"

"Yes... they are people from Nanwei Fairyland." Lei Gang answered with difficulty.

"Immortal Emperor Han Yueshuang's people?" Immortal Emperor Wuhen frowned and whispered the name.

Xiao Mohan stood quietly to the side, his voice calm, but every word was like an icicle piercing everyone's heart: "It seems that there are traitors growing within the human race!"

Immortal Emperor Wuhen nodded gravely, "Indeed. We have just barely sealed the damage at node 37."

Xuanyuan Yehua said urgently, "There's no time to lose. Let's go to node 103 right away to check!"

Immortal Emperor Wuhen fixed his gaze on the northwest like a hawk, and said in a cold voice, "We must go! But we need to act in secret and must not alert the enemy!"

Su Yu'er frowned upon hearing this and added, "Immortal Emperor Wuhen, I recognize one of them!"

"Who?!"

Everyone's eyes were focused on her.

Su Yu'er's voice was cold, with a hint of complex meaning that was difficult to discern: "The former leader of the Ancient Sword Sect—Gu Liangyun!"

"Gu Liangyun?"

Immortal Emperor Wuhen repeated in a low voice, and this name obviously brought back some memories.

Xuanyuan Yeyun looked at the Immortal Emperor Wuhen and asked, "Brother Wuhen, are you still going into the hall?"

"No more!"

Immortal Emperor Wuhen said resolutely, "The situation is urgent. We must immediately head northwest to investigate! Brother Xuanyuan, please make sure the disciples from the two sects are properly settled first."

"Okay! Then let's set up our base first!"

"See you in the main hall!"

Before he finished speaking, the five people including Wuhen Immortal Emperor had transformed into five streams of light, tearing through the void and shooting towards the northwest direction outside the Demon Subduing Pass.

Su Yu'er stared at their disappearing trajectory, her heart pounding.

The evacuation of the battlefield of gods and demons that day was hasty, and the remaining members of the temple and the ancient sword sect were not completely wiped out, which allowed Gu Liangyun to escape by chance.

Since Gu Liangyun was not dead, why was he here? What was even more bizarre was that he had come from the battlefield between the two realms where the demons were entrenched!

Could it be... he is a traitor? !

This thought came like a fog.

If it was really him, could he easily destroy the foundation of the formation with his own strength?

Who is the mysterious man next to him?

Node 37 had just been repaired, and node 103 was showing abnormalities again.

Could it be a diversionary tactic?

Or... are there more nodes being destroyed silently?

Thinking of this, a chill spread from Su Yu'er's heart. Within the human race, there were actually scum who defected to the demon race!

These parasites deserve to die!

It seems that in order to resist external evil, we must first eliminate internal troubles!

This trip to the Demon Subduing Pass was far more dangerous than she had imagined. It seemed her first priority was to eradicate this hidden cancer!

Then, let’s get rid of the traitors first.

Xiao Mohan noticed her emotional ups and downs, reached out and gently held her slightly cold hand, whispering: "Madam, let's go and settle the base first."

Su Yuer shook her hand back and nodded slightly: "Okay."

Everyone then began to settle down in the sect’s headquarters.

Almost at the same time, Immortal Emperor Wuhen and his group of five quietly approached node number 103.

The closer they got, the clearer and more pungent the abnormal and disgusting demonic energy in the air became.

Immortal Emperor Wuhen's eyes condensed, his vast divine consciousness silently spreading, precisely sweeping across the massive array base on the mountain. At this moment, the runes of the defensive array were flashing a faint but stable light.

When they actually arrived at the node, Immortal Emperor Wuhen looked directly at the array base with a gaze as fast as lightning. His divine sense keenly captured an old crack on the invisible barrier, which seemed to have existed for a long time.

At this moment, from the depths of the crack, streams of cold and sticky demonic energy were seeping out.

Immortal Emperor Wuhen's face was gloomy, and he squeezed out cold words from between his teeth: "Good, very good!"

Lei Gang and the other four were also seething with rage, their chests heaving violently. These scum of the human race had actually already sold their souls to the demons?!

Such behavior disregards our ancestors and is an unforgivable crime!

Immortal Emperor Wuhen suppressed his raging rage, his hands flying like lightning, and brilliant rays of light containing the power of the laws of heaven and earth gushed out from his palms, quickly covering the old crack and beginning to repair it urgently.

On the other side, Su Yu'er and Xiao Mohan directed everyone to settle down the base, leaving disciples to guard it, and they prepared to search for Gu Liangyun's whereabouts separately.

The three brothers Xuanyuan, Yeyun, represented the Immortal Court and went straight to the main hall to participate in high-level meetings.

Su Yu'er and Xiao Mohan took Xiao Moxuan and his group and wandered around the northwest area of ​​​​Demon Subduing Pass separately.

Just as they were walking through the streets and alleys, the giant teleportation array leading to the Demon Subduing Pass began to flash with light and became increasingly busy. Many independent cultivators and sect disciples had arrived one after another.

Su Yu'er and Xiao Mohan walked side by side, seemingly chatting casually, but their eyes were sharply scanning every face they passed by.

Suddenly, six figures came towards us.

They were all dressed in dark armor, with a strong murderous aura surrounding them. They walked with steady steps and an imposing presence.

The leader was a middle-aged man in a black robe, with an ordinary face, except for his eyes, which held an incomparably sinister look. His cultivation had surprisingly reached the mid-stage demigod realm.
