Xiao Chen was the only one left in the palace. After the other geniuses left, the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds looked at Xiao Chen and asked, "Xiao Chen, what's the plan?"
He didn't know Xiao Chen's plan, but when he heard the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, Xiao Chen didn't keep him in suspense. "I want to use Hao Tian and the others to kill the Demon Emperors of the Demon Cultivators."
"Use Hao Tian and the others to kill the Demon Emperors of the Demon Cultivators?" asked the Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. He didn't understand what Xiao Chen meant.
"Indeed. Hao Tian and the others are the Demon Saint's direct disciples. They have a very high social status among the Demon Cultivators. Now that we've captured them, I want to use their lives to threaten the Demon Emperors of the Demon Cultivators. Even if I can't make the Demon Emperors compromise, I can at least distract them. That way, Lord Ruler, you'll have an opportunity to kill them when they least expect it. As long as we can kill even one Demon Emperor, we'll have an advantage."
Xiao Chen told the Sovereigns about his plan without holding anything back. After hearing what Xiao Chen said, the Sovereigns fell into deep thought.
After a short while, the Ruler of Tianji looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Using Hao Tian and the others to threaten the Demon Emperors is indeed a good idea."
Xiao Chen's plan was indeed good. At least for now, there was no better way. During a great battle, they couldn't afford to be distracted. If they could use Hao Tian and the others to distract the Demon Emperors of the Demon Cultivators, the Rulers would have a great chance to kill them. After all, the Dao Emperors of the Demon Cultivators of both sides were severely injured. Under such circumstances, a small mistake could be fatal.
The Ruler of Tianji was the first to agree with Xiao Chen's plan. When the Rulers of the Continent of the Nine Clouds heard him, they all nodded in agreement.
At this point in time, there was no better way. Moreover, if they were really able to kill even a single Devil Emperor, then the number of Dao Emperors on both sides would be pulled apart, and the situation would be completely turned around.
The gap between the Dao Emperor Realm experts couldn't be underestimated. With another Dao Emperor Realm expert amongst them, all the Sovereigns would be able to join forces and annihilate the other Devil Emperors. In this way, their advantage would be ceaselessly enlarged, and they would have a chance to obtain victory in the end.
The Sovereigns all agreed with Xiao Chen's plan. In response, Xiao Chen said, "Don't worry.
"Then when the time comes, Lord Ruler, you only need to fight like normal. Immediately, we'll escort Haotian and the other three to the top of the city walls. Once a Devil Emperor is affected by Haotian and the other three, Lord Ruler, you'll immediately seize the opportunity to kill him."
There was no need for the Sovereigns to do anything. The Sovereigns only had one mission, and that was to seize the opportunity. Once a Devil Emperor was affected by Hao Tian's group of four, the Sovereigns fighting against that Devil Emperor were to seize the opportunity and directly kill that Devil Emperor.
All the Sovereigns nodded slightly when they heard Xiao Chen. After that, Xiao Chen didn't stay in the hall for long because the Sovereigns still had to recuperate and prepare for the next battle. So, it didn't take long for Xiao Chen to leave the hall as well.
The plan had been carried out, and all the Sovereigns had agreed. A Dao Querying Realm cultivator had been waiting for him since a long time ago when he left the hall. He led Xiao Chen to a small courtyard by the side of the hall, and this was their temporary residence.
When Xiao Chen arrived at the courtyard, Huangfu Ao and the others were already here. At the same time, Hao Tian's group of four were imprisoned here as well.
Hao Tian's group was extremely important to Xiao Chen and the others, and they couldn't allow any mishaps to occur to them. So, the task of guarding them naturally had to be undertaken by Xiao Chen and the others.
"Junior Brother Lin Nuo and the others haven't returned yet?" Xiao Chen asked Huangfu Ao after they entered the courtyard.
"Not yet," Huangfu Ao replied in response to Xiao Chen's question.
Lin Nuo and the others were still in front of the Savage Beast Sovereigns' memorial tablets. It was understandable that Lin Nuo and the others were grieving over their master's death. Even Long Qing was deeply saddened by the deaths of the three Beast Emperors.
After glancing at the room where Hao Tian's group was imprisoned, Xiao Chen instructed Huangfu Ao to watch over them properly. The Sovereigns had already agreed to their plan, so Xiao Chen left with large strides. He didn't go to the memorial tablets of the Fist Tyrant Ruler and the others to pay his respects. Instead, he headed straight for the Sovereigns' memorial hall.
Because the war wasn't over yet, the Fist Tyrant Ruler and the others' corpses hadn't been properly buried. They were all placed in the memorial hall. When Xiao Chen arrived, he saw Lin Nuo, Huangfu Ao, Gu Mu, and Long Qing kneeling before the memorial tablets of the Fist Tyrant Ruler and the others.
Without saying anything, Xiao Chen slowly walked up to the memorial tablets and respectfully lit incense sticks for the Fist Tyrant Ruler and the others. In the face of Xiao Chen's series of actions, Lin Nuo and the others didn't say a word. They knelt before their master's memorial tablets as if they had lost their souls, their eyes bloodshot.
Having personally experienced the pain of losing a loved one, Xiao Chen understood that even if he tried to console them, Lin Nuo and the others wouldn't listen. After lighting the incense sticks for the Fist Tyrant Ruler and the others, Xiao Chen calmly said, "The Sovereign has already agreed to our plan.
"The Lord Sovereign has already agreed to our plan. The next battle will be the most crucial moment. If we can really use Hao Tian's group to kill the Devil Emperor, then we will be able to avenge the Tyrant Fist Sovereign and the others and comfort their souls in heaven."
Without waiting for the four to reply, Xiao Chen walked out of the mourning hall. Lin Nuo and the other three had a look in their eyes when they heard what Xiao Chen had said.
A while after Xiao Chen left, Long Qing took the lead and kowtowed three times to the memorial tablets of the three Demon Emperors. Then he got up and left.
Xiao Chen was right. Right now, the most important thing was to adjust their condition and prepare for the next battle.
After Long Qing left, Lin Nuo and the others kowtowed three times to their respective masters. They said in unison, "If the Master's spirit is in heaven, this disciple will definitely avenge you."
Now that the plan had been approved by the Rulers, the next battle would be the most crucial moment. It could be said that they had to give it their all. If they succeeded, the Heavenly Chen Continent would gain an absolute advantage and obtain the final victory.
The four of them returned to their residences from the memorial hall. After a night of silence, at noon the next day, the demonic cultivator army attacked again. Along with the sound of war drums, experts soared into the sky from Western Pass City.
Everyone was already used to this kind of battle, so the moment the war drums sounded, everyone was ready to meet the enemy. At the same time, Xiao Chen and the others gathered together. In front of everyone, Hao Tian and the others were tied up and kneeling on the ground. Xiao Chen glanced at everyone and said in a serious tone.
"Everyone, success or failure will depend on today's battle. If we can successfully kill the Demon Emperors, our plan will be considered a success."
Today's battle was a gamble. If the plan succeeded, then the outcome would be determined in advance. If it failed, then the Ruler's death would obviously occur again. It was even uncertain whether the Heavenly Chen Continent would be able to survive in the end. Therefore, today's battle was extremely crucial. Everyone had no way out.
