The Emperor of Zongmen Workers is here

After everyone finished their meal and prepared to depart, Zhongli Xiu's expression suddenly changed. He had received a message from within the clan. After reading the message, a trace of solemnity appeared on his face.

"What's wrong, Third Junior Brother?" Feng Jingchen asked.

Zhongli Xiu frowned and said, "My clan asked me to go back and report and discuss the current situation in the Dongxu Realm. They said it was a bit complicated. They knew I was with my fellow disciples, so they invited everyone to go together."

Everyone looked at each other, and Jiang Qingwu nodded and said, "If that's the case, then we'll go with you. Our landing point happens to be at the border between the cultivation world and the demon world, so it's not too far away."

Everyone agreed, and so they packed their bags and set off towards the demon world. Along the way, everyone felt a bit heavy-hearted. After all, they had just experienced the demon clan's conspiracy in the Youhuang Secret Realm, and now they didn't know what new situation would await them.

Feng Ci muttered as he walked, "This demon clan is really not letting us rest in peace. I don't know what they are up to."

Everyone agreed, so they packed their bags and set off towards the demon world.

Mo Yunsheng comforted him, "No matter what, we just need to be careful."

Feng Ci asked Zhong Lixiu curiously, "Third Brother, your dragon clan is independent of the demon world. What is your territory like?"

Zhongli Xiu smiled and said, "Our dragon territory is truly magnificent, with rolling mountains and clear lakes. You'll see once you get there, but don't worry now, we still have a long way to go."

As they walked, they came to a valley. A light mist filled the valley, giving it a mysterious feeling. The mist was hazy, like a veil gently covering the valley, making the surrounding scenery hazy.

"This is one of the entrances to the demon world." Zhongli Xiu said.

Everyone walked into the valley cautiously. The fog became thicker and thicker, and their vision became a little blurry.

Lin Muci couldn't help but feel a complicated emotion in his heart. He had always been evasive towards the demon world.

She couldn't help but worry that she would encounter some trouble related to her life experience in the demon world, and she felt a little uneasy.

Su Chen looked around vigilantly, holding his sword tightly in his hand: "Everyone be careful, there may be an ambush here."

Just then, a breeze blew, and something seemed to be surging in the fog.

"Who is it?" Feng Jingchen shouted, and the spiritual power in his body surged instantly.

Several figures emerged from the mist. They turned out to be guards from the demon world. When they saw Zhongli Xiu, they immediately saluted.

"So you are Master Zhongli of the Dragon Clan. May I ask where you are taking your friends?" asked one of the guards.

Zhongli Xiu smiled and replied, "We are going back to the Dragon Clan's territory. We have important matters to discuss within the clan."

The guard nodded. "I see. Then please allow you and your friends to pass through. However, once you enter the demon world, please abide by its rules. With demons rampant and evil cultivators rampant, the demon world's management and guards will be stricter. Master Zhongli, please advise your fellow disciples."

Zhongli Xiu bowed and said, "Thank you for the reminder. We will comply."

As they continued on, they crossed the valley, and the view opened up. A vast forest appeared before them, its trees towering and vibrant. Sunlight filtered through the dense branches, creating patches of light that resembled a dreamlike scene. The air was filled with a rich spiritual energy and the fragrance of flowers and plants, bringing a sense of peace and tranquility.

"The spiritual energy here is very abundant, it feels like I'm back in the sect, and the scenery is very pleasant." Lin Muci exclaimed, temporarily forgetting the worries in his heart, attracted by what he saw and heard.

Feng Ci also looked around excitedly: "This is my first time in the demon world and I encountered a period of strict security. However, the environment in the demon world is really suitable for cultivation. The demon world is worthy of being the leader in cultivation. The cultivation environment is really unique."

Zhongli Xiu led everyone through the forest, and from time to time he introduced to everyone some of the unique plants and animals in the demon world.

"Look, the fruits on that tree are very precious spiritual fruits. They are very helpful for cultivation." Zhongli Xiu said, pointing to the red fruits on a tree.

Jiang Qingwu asked curiously, "Do you dragons pick these spiritual fruits?"

Zhongli Xiu smiled and said, "No, this is not an opportunity for our clan. Although the demon world practices the law of the jungle, we will not seize opportunities belonging to other clans without reason. After all, we, the dragon clan, also hope that the demon world can prosper."

As they walked, they came across a stream. The water was so clear that you could see the bottom and fish were swimming freely in the water.

The brook gurgles, making a clear and pleasant sound, as if playing a beautiful piece of music. Various exotic flowers and plants grow by the brook, colorful and beautiful.

Zhongli Xiu squatted down, scooped up some stream water and took a sip: "This stream water is sweet and delicious, everyone can try it."

Everyone followed suit, feeling the coolness and sweetness of the stream water.

"Haha, I feel relaxed all over." Feng Ci said with a smile.

"Life in this demon world is truly simple and beautiful," Mo Yunsheng sighed. "Everything is so natural and harmonious, without so much conflict and complexity."

Su Chen nodded in agreement: "Yes, the creatures in the demon world follow the natural laws of survival. Although simple, they have a pure power. Their frank and true nature also makes people feel very comfortable."

"I didn't know much about the demon world before, but seeing it today, it's really different," Jiang Qingwu said. "Every blade of grass and tree here is full of vitality, as if it has a unique charm."

Lin Muci's complex emotions were gradually diluted by the beauty before her eyes. She smiled and said, "The monsters here seem very real. It should be fun to get along with them."

As they walked, they admired the beauty of the demon world and sighed from time to time. During this process, Lin Muci gradually relaxed and began to enjoy this journey in the demon world.

As they continued on their journey, they encountered some creatures from the demon world. A little rabbit came bounding over, looked at them curiously, and then ran away happily.

"Haha, that little rabbit is so cute." Feng Ci laughed.

"Don't tell me, you might have to call that little rabbit 'Grandpa' or 'Grandma'." Zhongli Xiu said, "Junior brother, don't trust any animal in the demon world, hahahaha."

"Ah?" Feng Ci was stunned. He couldn't imagine that the cute little rabbit was actually an elder who was hundreds of years older than him.

The others were amused by Feng Ci's expression and teased him.

Everyone was immersed in the beautiful atmosphere of the demon world, temporarily forgetting the troubles and pressures of the outside world.

After leaving the forest, there is a vast grassland in front of us. The grassland is covered with green grass, like a huge green carpet spreading on the ground.

Colorful wildflowers dotted the grassland, swaying in the breeze as if waving to them. In the distance, herds of cattle and sheep were grazing leisurely, and from time to time they could hear a few cheerful calls.

The sky was as blue as a gem, with white clouds floating in the air like hawks. Falcons were patrolling their territory from high in the sky. When they saw Zhongli Xiu and his men, they circled above their heads for a long time, confirming that there was no trace of evil demon cultivators, and then left.

The sunlight shines on the grassland, covering everything with a golden glow, making the entire grassland look picturesque.

"Wow, it's so beautiful here!" Lin Muci couldn't help but sigh. She opened her arms, feeling the breeze, a joyful smile on her face, and at the same time, a sense of familiarity with this place arose in her heart.

Feng Ci also ran excitedly across the grassland, shouting as he ran, "I feel like I've ascended to a fairyland!"

Others were also shocked by the beautiful grassland scenery and stopped to admire it.

Shi An looked at the scene with a smile and said to everyone, "The demon world has its own unique charm. The vitality and tranquility of this grassland are precious gifts bestowed by heaven. While we appreciate it, we must also respect and protect everything here."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Lin Muci walked over to Jiang Qingwu and whispered, "Junior Master, I have an indescribable feeling about the demon world. Everything here seems both strange and familiar."

Jiang Qingwu looked at her with gentleness and understanding in his eyes: "Mu Ci, your life experience is related to the demon world, so it's normal to feel this way. But don't worry too much. No matter what happens, we will be by your side, and the Wuliang Sect will always be behind you."

Lin Muci felt warm in his heart and nodded: "Yes, Junior Master, I understand."

However, a bigger crisis is quietly brewing, secretly plotting somewhere they don't know.

In the demon clan's meeting hall, the atmosphere was still gloomy.

The demon leader sat at the head of the group, his eyes gleaming with a fierce light. "Due to the lack of cultivation resources, we could have been evenly matched with the righteous path, but now they are clearly no match for us. We must seize this opportunity to seize the fortune of the Dongxu Realm, destroy the righteous path, and unify the Dongxu Realm."

A demon general echoed, "The leader is right. So what should we do?"

At this time, the demon strategist smiled sinisterly: "We can unite with the Soul Devouring Sect. They have always been extremely thirsty for power, and we can take advantage of this."

The demon leader nodded slightly: "Okay, then send someone to contact the Soul Devouring Sect's leader Ye Qingcheng."

Not long after, Ye Qingcheng, who was practicing in one of the many furnaces, received news from the demons.

He looked at the letter in his hand and fell into deep thought.

"Cooperating with the demons... This is no small matter." Ye Qingcheng said to himself.

He recalled that he had been hiding from He Yihuan for over ten years, and he hesitated. However, the current situation forced him to consider the demon clan's proposal.

So, Ye Qingcheng replied to the leader of the demon clan, saying that he would consider cooperation, but the demon clan had to provide a detailed plan.

After receiving the reply, the demon leader showed a smug smile: "Humph, Ye Qingcheng, this greedy guy, really took the bait."

He summoned his advisers and generals and began to discuss specific plans.

"We can start with the sect competition four years from now," the demon strategist said. "We can create chaos during the competition and seize the opportunity to seize the fortune of the Dongxu Realm."

"How do we do it specifically?" asked the demon general.

The demon strategist smiled cunningly: "We can first arrange for some people to infiltrate the participating disciples and create trouble during the competition. Then, we can take advantage of the chaos to launch an attack and disrupt the deployment of the righteous path."

"That's a good idea." The demon leader nodded with satisfaction. "Then we should also prepare some backup plans, just in case."

"Don't worry, Chief. I already have some ideas." The demon strategist whispered, and then said a few words in the ear of the demon leader.

After hearing this, the demon leader laughed heartily: "Alright, let's do it. This time we must let the righteous path taste our power."

On Ye Qingcheng's side, he was also thinking about the pros and cons of cooperating with the demons.

"Although cooperating with the demons is a bit risky, if we can obtain the luck of the Dongxu Realm, it will be of great help to the development of our Soul-Devouring Sect." Ye Qingcheng thought to himself.

He called his trusted disciple and said, "Go and secretly investigate the movements of the demons to see if they are truly sincere in cooperating and whether their plan is feasible."

"Yes, Master." The trusted disciple took the order and left.

Ye Qingcheng sat on the chair, his eyes revealing a hint of determination: "No matter what, I have to consider the future of the Soul Devouring Sect."

Wuliang Sect's Spirit Beast Mountain.

Shi An was practicing. Suddenly, he received a message from the Dragon Clan and learned about the Demon Clan's movements and plans.

Shi An's expression turned serious. "What are the demons plotting? We must not let them succeed no matter what."

He immediately left a message for Li Qingtong via the sect order: "Qingtong, I've received news that the demons are making new moves. I'm going to the demon world to discuss a counterattack with the dragons. You must be careful within the sect and monitor the situation at all times. Have Chen Bai establish contact with other sects to discuss the urgent fight against the demons."

After leaving the message, Shi An hurried to the demon world. Along the way, he was extremely anxious and wanted to fly to the demon world immediately.

Shi An was moving extremely fast, his figure shuttled through the mountains and forests, causing a gust of wind.

Finally, he arrived at the entrance to the demon world. Without any hesitation, he entered the demon world directly.

In the demon world, Shi An encountered some demon world creatures. When they saw Shi An, they all showed a vigilant look.

Shi An quickly explained, "I am Shi An from the Wuliang Sect. I received an invitation from the Dragon Clan to discuss how to fight against the Demon Clan."

Some creatures from the demon world recognized Shi An and knew that he was Ling'an Daojun of Wuliang Sect, so they showed him the way.

Shi An thanked them gratefully and continued to move towards the dragon territory.

The journey was smooth and when he arrived at the dragon territory, the dragon guard on duty recognized him. After a few greetings, he asked him to go to the meeting hall quickly, where the elders of the tribe had been waiting for a long time.

"Elder Zhongli, I'm here." Shi An shouted.

Zhongli Mohan and others were also very happy to see Shi An.

"Daojun Ling'an, the reason we invited you to come to the Dragon Clan this time is because the Dragon Clan's spies in the Demon Clan have discovered the evil ambitions of the Demon Clan and the evil cultivators, and your Wuliang Sect has to take the lead in taking precautions." Zhongli Mohan said.

Shi An nodded: "It should be."

Everyone's faces became solemn. They knew that a new crisis was about to come.
