The situation of the Devil Race was even more awkward than that of the Human Race. The Devil Race had no choice but to fight to the death with the Human Race. If the Northern Devil Continent had not been sealed, the Devil Race would have retreated long ago. Why would they have to fight the Human Race here for eight years?
It was precisely because retreating to the Northern Devil Continent meant certain death that the Devil Race had to establish a foothold in the SkyRiver Continent.
Both sides were on the edge of the cliff, and in the next few days, Xiao Chen's mood has been very dignified. In this regard, Qin Shuirou and the other two women always thought that Xiao Chen was worried about the war, but the three women didn't know that the reason Xiao Chen was like this was because Xiao Chen was thinking about a problem, a problem that might end the war.
It had been five days in a row, and Xiao Chen was not in the mood to cultivate. The thing he did the most every day was to be in a daze, his eyes were dull, as if his mind was wandering.
Regarding Xiao Chen's abnormality, Qin Shuirou and the other two women were naturally worried, but even if the three women asked, Xiao Chen just perfunctorily, not telling the three women anything at all.
There was no other way, and the problem that Xiao Chen was thinking about these days was actually very simple, that is, peace talks, peace talks with the Devil Race.
Fortunately, Xiao Chen didn't tell others about this idea, otherwise, Xiao Chen would definitely become the target of public criticism. After eight years of bloody war, the two races had long been hostile to each other. Under such circumstances, if Xiao Chen proposed peace talks, one could imagine what the other races would think.
However, this was not Xiao Chen's fault. The reason why Xiao Chen had this idea was mainly based on two reasons.
The first reason was that continuing the war now was not good for the two races, and Xiao Chen had already thought that the only explanation why the Devil Race had not chosen to retreat was that they couldn't retreat.
The Northern Devil Continent was a closed continent, and the Devil Race would only have a dead end if they retreated. Xiao Chen was very clear about this, and because the Devil Race couldn't retreat, Xiao Chen was also certain that the Devil Race would not retreat even if they fought to the last soldier.
Since they would die anyway, they could only fight. This was the current mentality of the Devil Race. For such a Devil Race, if the war continued, the most likely result would be the destruction of both races.
The Devil Race and the Human Race of the Northern Devil Continent and the Tianhe Continent would be completely destroyed in this war at the same time.
In eight years, the Celestial Being Realm and Earth Mirror warriors from both sides had been fighting each other. Next, it was the Yellow Realm and Mysterious Yuan Realm. Finally, it was the battle between the ordinary humans and the Devil Tribe with no cultivation. In the end, the two races were annihilated in the flames of war.
The only outcome of the battle was mutual destruction. Obviously, no one wanted to see such an outcome. That was the first reason why Xiao Chen wanted to negotiate.
The second reason, to put it bluntly, was Xiao Chen's selfishness. He did not deny that he had deep feelings for the Tianhe Continent. It was also because of this that Xiao Chen and the people of the Tianchen Continent had fought here for eight years.
But in the end, Xiao Chen's roots were not in the Tianhe Continent, and the Tianchen Continent was still waiting for them to go back and save it. If Xiao Chen and the others all died here, what would happen to the Tianchen Continent?
The Tianchen Continent was now being eyed covetously by the Demonic Cultivators of the Xuemo Continent. If Xiao Chen and the others had an accident, the Tianchen Continent would be finished.
From the bottom of his heart, Xiao Chen could not give up the Tianchen Continent for the sake of the Tianhe Continent. After all, the Tianchen Continent was his hometown.
To be more selfish, if the war continued, then Xiao Chen was likely to call Saint Dan Yun, Saint Nine Heavens, and the others to leave and return to the Tianchen Continent.
At that time, the fate of the Tianhe Continent would be beyond Xiao Chen's ability to help.
It was a selfish thought, but Xiao Chen had no choice. Because of this, Xiao Chen wanted to see if there was a possibility of peace talks between the two clans. After all, once the peace talks were successful, even if Xiao Chen and the others left, the Tianhe Continent would at least be preserved. Although it was broken, it was still better than being destroyed.
He couldn't bear to leave the Tianhe Continent behind, so Xiao Chen wanted to create an opportunity for peace talks between the two clans.
Don't think that Xiao Chen was selfish. In the past eight years, Xiao Chen had witnessed too many deaths. Nearly three quarters of the hundreds of thousands of cultivators of the Tianchen Continent had died.
If they continued to die, then the whole army would be wiped out. At that time, who would save the Tianchen Continent?
Moreover, although the Saints of the Tianchen Continent hadn't fallen yet, if this continued, there would be casualties sooner or later. Xiao Chen couldn't just watch Saint Dan Yun and the others die on the Tianhe Continent.
Xiao Chen kept thinking in his heart. If he wanted to promote peace talks between the two clans, he knew that there was a prerequisite, that was, they must cede a place for the Demon Race to live. In other words, the two clans must coexist on the Tianhe Continent.
If the Demon Race obediently retreated to the Northern Demon Continent, this was simply impossible. The Demon Race would never accept it. It could only be said that the two clans could live together on the Tianhe Continent.
The Human Race and the Demon Race living together on the same continent was indeed a bit shocking, but now, this was the only possibility for peace talks.
Xiao Chen had been thinking about this problem, from the very beginning to the final implementation steps, he thought a lot about it.
The possibility of peace talks was possible, but how to implement it? How to promote the Old Ancestors of both sides to sit down and talk, this was the most important problem.
In the end, Xiao Chen could only think of one way, and that was through Sha Mo He and himself.
First of all, although Xiao Chen and Sha Mo He were of the younger generation, their status in the Human Race and the Demon Race was not low. They could completely influence the thoughts of the Old Ancestors of both sides.
If he could reach an agreement with Sha Mo He, and let Sha Mo He persuade the Old Ancestors of the Demon Race, and himself persuade the Old Ancestors of the Human Race, then things would be much easier. Of course, he couldn't guarantee 100% success. After all, the decision was still in the hands of the Old Ancestors of both sides. Xiao Chen and Sha Mo He could at most play the role of a bridge.
But this was the only feasible way. In addition, Xiao Chen couldn't think of any other better way.
Moreover, Xiao Chen also believed that the Old Ancestors of both sides would certainly not want to see the two clans perish together like this.
With this idea in mind, Xiao Chen no longer hesitated. He immediately called Qin Shuirou and the other two girls, as well as Chen Ling and Long Qing, over.
Everyone quickly gathered in front of Xiao Chen. Looking at their worried faces, Xiao Chen didn't keep them in suspense and said bluntly.
"These few days, I've been thinking about a problem. The war has been going on for so long, if it continues, the only path left for the two clans is to perish together. Therefore, I want to negotiate with the Demon Race."
When these words came out, Qin Shuirou and the other two girls, as well as Chen Ling and Long Qing, immediately widened their eyes, as if they couldn't believe that Xiao Chen would say such a thing.
