Chapter 39 - Chapter 38: The He Family's Dream

After carefully instructing Zhang Yuhe, Lu Mingfang extended his finger again and pointed at the jade token.

On a certain peak within the Dao Saint Sect's Inner Sect, a cold-faced young man wearing a golden crown was seated on a Cultivation platform in his Immortal Cave.

Suddenly, the young man's expression changed, and an identity jade token instantly appeared in his hand.

The young man formed a hand seal, then transmitted a message to the jade token, saying,

"Elder Lu?"

"Li Tian, it's me. Just now, Town Guardian Envoy Zhang Yuhe from Yunzhong Prefecture sent a message to the Sect, stating that a Demon Race member was discovered in Mirror Void City, which is under his jurisdiction. Go there quickly to provide support."

"Oh, and there's also an altar in Mirror Void City, likely the Tiangang Breaking Boundary Great Formation established by the Demon God Sect. You must destroy the Formation and prevent the Demon God Sect from opening an interface passage to bring the Demon Race over."

"Understood."

After putting away his identity jade token, the golden-crowned young man made no preparations, instantly stood up, and swiftly flew towards the Sect gate.

After ending the communication, Lu Mingfang gently tapped the table with his finger, murmuring to himself,

"What is Zhao Mingyue trying to do again? Is she plotting some new scheme?"

The Zhao Mingyue Lu Mingfang referred to was none other than the Demon God Sect Master. Ever since this person founded the Demon God Sect, the Dao Saint Sect had been plagued by endless troubles.

To deal with Zhao Mingyue, the Elders of the Dao Saint Sect had made several attempts, but all had returned without success.

There was truly no way; Zhao Mingyue, for some unknown Divine Ability she Cultivated, could actually manifest thousands of Incarnations.

This person traveled everywhere using her Incarnations, while her true body never showed itself.

Each time the Dao Saint Sect thought they had finally grasped Zhao Mingyue's true nature, they would eventually discover that all their efforts had only resulted in destroying one of her Incarnations.

From then on, the Elders of the Dao Saint Sect no longer easily took action, and general affairs were handled by the Inner Sect Disciples.

As long as Zhao Mingyue's true body did not appear, the Dao Saint Sect's Inner Sect Disciples were sufficient to handle her.

Thinking of Zhao Mingyue, the Demon God Sect Master, Lu Mingfang couldn't help but feel a headache.

"What is the Demon God Sect's purpose with this operation? Although the Tiangang Breaking Boundary Great Formation can open an interface passage, its power is limited. The opened passage not only has many restrictions, only allowing low-level Demon Race members to cross, but also lasts for a very short time. It won't cause much trouble for Yu Fan Heaven, so it seems completely meaningless. Did Zhao Mingyue go through all this trouble just to annoy us?"

"Forget it, let Li Tian go and see first. Whatever her purpose, just destroy her Incarnation and dismantle the Tiangang Breaking Boundary Great Formation."

Lu Mingfang thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out the Demon God Sect's intentions for this operation.

However, he didn't dwell on it excessively. The Dao Saint Sect possessed immense strength.

No matter what the Demon God Sect wanted to do, they would just respond accordingly, not fearing any major upheaval from the Demon God Sect.

As for the black altar described by Zhang Yuhe, Lu Mingfang was only slightly surprised.

Such incidents had occurred many times over the past hundred thousand years.

At first, they were greatly alarmed, thinking that the opening of the passage would lead to a large-scale invasion by the Demon Race, re-enacting the catastrophe from a hundred thousand years ago.

However, they later discovered that the Formation set up by the Demon God Sect had inherent flaws and could not support the passage of powerful Demon Race members.

Given this, Lu Mingfang had no intention of taking action himself, opting instead to send his senior Inner Sect Disciple, Li Tian, to provide support.

After ending the communication, Zhang Yuhe concealed his figure and quietly observed the situation in Mirror Void City through his talisman-soldier.

Not long after, the middle-aged man named Sixth Uncle arrived in a large hall.

In the hall, a white-haired old man was seated at the head of the table.

"He Daofan?"

Seeing the old man in the hall, Zhang Yuhe was slightly surprised.

This person was none other than the He Family's Old Ancestor, He Daofan, who had not appeared for several hundred years.

Zhang Yuhe had seen this person's portrait in the Town Guardian Manor's records.

According to Ming Fuqian's previous introduction, He Daofan was already at Nascent Soul Great Perfection several hundred years ago.

However, at that time, He Daofan's Lifespan was nearing its end, and Ming Fuqian did not know whether this person was dead or alive.

Now it seemed that He Daofan was not only alive and well, but his Cultivation had definitely undergone a Breakthrough; otherwise, he would have long since exhausted his Lifespan and passed away.

Seeing the middle-aged man enter, He Daofan said with some excitement,

"Yaguang, you're here. Lord Blackhorn is about to open the passage to welcome the Demon Clan Army. As long as the Demon Clan Army arrives, our He Family can seize the opportunity to rise, and perhaps even the entire Family can Ascend to the Demon Realm in the future, with everyone becoming true Demon Gods. It's all possible."

The middle-aged man was named He Yaguang, but Zhang Yuhe did not recognize him; there was no information about this person in the Town Guardian Manor.

Seeing the Old Ancestor so agitated, He Yaguang felt a little uneasy.

The decision to pledge allegiance to the Demon God Sect was made by the Old Ancestor, and he was powerless to oppose it.

He had always been somewhat worried about the consequences of doing so. Could they truly succeed? Could the He Family members become Demon Gods?

If things were that simple, then why were the invading Demon Race members repelled by the Dao Saint Sect a hundred thousand years ago?

Was the Demon God Sect merely using them, and would they discard the He Family once they were no longer useful?

Thinking of this, he hesitated and said to He Daofan,

"Old Ancestor, should we arrange for some of our clansmen to leave first? In case this matter fails, it would be good to leave a path for the Family."

"Hmph, what do you know? Where is there any path left now? Now we only have one path: waiting for the Demon God to descend and the entire Family to rise."

Hearing He Yaguang's words, He Daofan was quite displeased.

At this point, where was there any path left for their He Family?

Now, they could only succeed, not fail.

Once they failed, no one in their He Family would be spared.

The entire Yu Fan Heaven belonged to the Dao Saint Sect. Where else could they hide?

After a while, perhaps feeling that his tone just now was a bit harsh, He Daofan said softly again,

"Don't worry, everything is ready now, just waiting for the Demon Clan Army to arrive."

"Oh, how are the arrangements? Once the Demon Clan Army arrives, we must quickly arrange for the Family Disciples to guide the army, first to break through Cloud Central City, then use Cloud Central City's teleportation Formation to teleport to Hezhou City, and take down the entire Hezhou in one fell swoop."

"It's all arranged. All the Family Disciples are already distributed throughout the city, ready to guide the Demon Clan Army at any time."

"Good."

Speaking of the Demon Clan Army's arrival, He Daofan became excited again, and the two began to quietly discuss the subsequent details.

He Daofan even thought about how to rely on the Demon Clan Army to make their He Family the top power in Yu Fan Heaven, replacing the Dao Saint Sect.

Listening to their ignorant words through the talisman-soldier, Zhang Yuhe couldn't help but shake his head.

They were truly dreaming in broad daylight. The He Family, with their mediocre abilities, actually wanted to replace the Dao Saint Sect?

Moreover, He Daofan didn't know where he got his confidence, as if once the Demon Race descended, they could rule the entire Yu Fan Heaven.

If that were truly the case, then the Demon Race wouldn't have been repelled by the Dao Saint Sect a hundred thousand years ago.

Besides, with him here watching, could he allow the Demon Race to descend?

When the critical moment arrived, he would definitely rush forward and destroy the altar.

He needed to be cautious when necessary, but that didn't mean he wouldn't fight with his life.

It just depended on whether it was necessary or not.

Furthermore, he had already sent a message to the Sect, so the Dao Saint Sect's support should probably be arriving soon.

Once the support arrived, it would be the He Family's doomsday.

"Enjoy your last good times, your beautiful dream is about to end."

Zhang Yuhe muttered to himself mockingly.
