Chapter 571: It’s Best if Lin Xun Shows Up

In Jiang Qingshang’s view, the so-called distinction between righteous Sects and demonic Sects was merely a man-made classification.

While many demonic Sects did indeed harm the common people, many more were labeled as such simply because their cultivation philosophies differed.

In reality, these demonic Sects hadn’t actually done anything wrong.

Take the Heavenly Demon Sect, for example.

The Heavenly Demon Sect could hardly be considered a demonic Sect anymore.

The Heavenly Demon Sect even strictly forbade its Disciples from harassing the people of the Mortal World; how could such a group be called a demonic Sect?

Meanwhile, some so-called prestigious righteous Sects exploited the common folk under the banner of righteousness.

Furthermore…

Back then, at the entrance of that Secret Realm, her husband had spared the lives of many of those Sect Masters.

Now, what right did these people have to say anything?

If one were to be strict about it, her husband had spared their lives; they hadn’t even repaid such a massive favor yet.

So, what right did they have to gossip about her and her husband?

At this moment, Jiang Qingshang had already made up her mind.

This time, she would definitely reveal the fact that she and her husband were together.

This matter could not be delayed any longer!

Lin Xun, of course, was unaware of Jiang Qingshang’s thoughts.

At the moment, Lin Xun was still thinking about how to deal with those fellows from the Blood Demon Race.

That night, Lin Xun slept in his own courtyard.

Jiang Qingshang did not come.

That’s right, Lin Xun slept alone!

This was naturally Su Ying’s handiwork.

To Su Ying, it was one thing for her Senior Brother to be ‘eaten’ by her in the Zilin Holy Land.

But now, in her Ten Thousand Demon Sect, she actually wanted to sneak a bite again! Did she have no respect for her at all?

Isn’t this going too far!

Do you really think I’m made of paper?

Consequently, Su Ying directly pulled Jiang Qingshang to her own courtyard.

Su Ying used the excuse of wanting to spend the night with Jiang Qingshang for some ‘girl talk,’ to share some intimate secrets between women.

Therefore, Su Ying wanted to sleep with Jiang Qingshang.

How could Jiang Qingshang not see through Su Ying’s request?

Jiang Qingshang knew her purpose for doing this.

She was doing it specifically to prevent her from sleeping with her husband.

However, it didn’t really matter; after all, it was only for one night.

And no matter how one looked at it, this was Su Ying’s territory; she would yield to her for now.

So, Jiang Qingshang agreed.

‘Since I can’t eat, you shouldn’t even think about sneaking a bite either!’

Meanwhile, in Lin Xun’s courtyard, Goudan and the others were still incessantly chasing and playing with each other.

It seemed that as far as they were concerned, they didn’t care at all that the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon Clan wanted to rescue them.

In fact, it wasn’t just’seemed’; Goudan and the others truly didn’t care.

Because Goudan and the others found that the days they spent staying by Lin Xun’s side were actually quite decent.

Of course, it would be even better if this Lin Xun didn’t bully them from time to time.

Now they had food and drink, with nothing to worry about.

Aside from eating, they slept; aside from sleeping, they ate.

They could even scare others, and with a backer as big as Lin Xun, they were the ones bullying others, while it was impossible for others to bully them.

Through their understanding of Lin Xun over these days, Goudan and the others knew that Lin Xun was actually very protective of his own.

That is to say, Lin Xun could kick them, but others definitely couldn’t hit them.

This was what the human saying meant: ‘To beat a dog, one must look at the owner.’

“Wait… that’s not right. Since when did this seat become Lin Xun’s dog?”

Suddenly, Goudan couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.

It seemed that during this period of time, they had become significantly more submissive to Lin Xun.

Whatever, forget it, better to just lie flat.

Lying flat is pretty good.

If I get rescued, then I get rescued.

When the time comes, I’ll go back to the great cause of reviving the Outer Heaven Demon Clan.

But if they can’t rescue me, then it’s their fault, not mine.

It’s not that I don’t want to go back, but this Lin Xun won’t let me. You guys are too weak and have no way to get me out, so what can I do?

This dog is innocent.

So it’s not that I don’t want to revive the Blood Demon Race, it’s mainly that I really can’t get away.

If I can’t get away, then there’s no helping it, right?

Thinking this way, the pressure in Goudan’s heart vanished instantly; he even felt much more relaxed and wanted to lie flat even more.

Early the next morning, Su Ying summoned the Elders of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, declaring her intention to go out and meet the attack of those Sects and the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon Clan.

Originally, for the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, the folk customs were simple and direct.

Whenever they encountered trouble, they were the type to just charge straight in.

If Su Ying hadn’t made this choice, the Elders of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect would have looked down on her instead.

Thus, such a tough stance won the support of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect’s Cultivators.

As for Lin Xun, he was already prepared.

He intended to stay in the rear for now and give them a surprise at the critical moment.

Lin Xun also wanted to see if he could capture a few more high-level members of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon Clan alive.

Anyway, in Lin Xun’s view, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon Clan didn’t seem to possess much integrity.

Another three days passed.

According to reports from the front lines of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, many armies had already begun to mass toward the Ten Thousand Demon Sect’s territory.

En route, this army had even absorbed more Sects.

After all, it wasn’t just these few Sects that were unhappy with the Ten Thousand Demon Sect.

Naturally, they hoped this coalition would trample the Ten Thousand Demon Sect into the ground.

One must know, the Ten Thousand Demon Sect had been suppressing them for far too long.

Of course, a primary goal was that they also wanted to take advantage of the situation to grab some benefits and a piece of the pie.

After all, regardless of anything else, the Ten Thousand Demon Sect’s foundation was so deep that they would surely be able to fish out many treasures.

The Sects participating in this encirclement totaled roughly sixteen, plus the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon Clan.

The total Cultivator troop strength of these forces added up to 200,000.

Among them, there were a total of seven thousand Cultivators at or above the Golden Core Realm.

There were one thousand Cultivators in the Nascent Soul Realm.

Cultivators in the Jade Purity Realm totaled three hundred.

In addition, there were ten in the Immortal Realm and one in the Ascension Realm.

It could be said that they had put a great deal of effort into this encirclement of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, feeling that success was within their grasp.

Otherwise, how could they have come to this place with nothing better to do?

In their eyes, today would be the day the Ten Thousand Demon Sect died.

Although there were many Cultivators in the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, they certainly couldn’t match their own numbers.

In terms of top-tier combat power, they were indeed inferior to Lin Xun.

But so what?

They felt it was best if Lin Xun showed up.

They had already prepared a fine gift for Lin Xun.

If Lin Xun didn’t come, they felt they would even be disappointed.
