Soon, the conversation between the mother and son ended.
After pressing the button, the light on the compass dimmed. However, Lin Feng's heart could not calm down.
It's here!
The long-awaited day had finally arrived.
It had appeared without any warning. Even though he had heard the Heavenly Secret Saint Lord mention the 'three years' time, when he heard the news and learned that the demon army had arrived, his state of mind was completely different. Even though he had not experienced the second War of the Liches and Demons, he had 'seen' it.
The first time he met the Heavenly Secret Saint Lord, he had seen the destructive war.
It was as if he had personally witnessed it!
Countless Demon Clan cultivators rushed forward, while the human cultivators rushed forward like weeds. They played the role of a suicide squad, trying to wear down the Demon Clan army. In a war like this, there was no mercy at all. There was only endless killing, and more killing!
It was like purgatory on earth.
Blood flowed like a river and corpses were everywhere.
That scene was still deeply etched in his heart.
"It's finally here," Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief after a long time. He calmed down and accepted the news.
And for him, the responsibility now was much greater than before.
Because he was now the Lord of the Southern Region.
…
"Come, Lin Feng. We are discussing the distribution of duties. Let's see what you think." Shun smiled and waved his hand.
King Yan and King Lu smiled and looked over. The unhappiness from before had long been forgotten. Since they were now a team, they naturally had to be honest. Even the usually cold Ke Ke's expression was not as cold as before. However, when he looked at Lin Feng, his gaze was different. It was as if he had seen through something.
Similarly, Huang Lu, with her long hair fluttering in the wind, was even more observant.
"Did something happen?" Huang Lu's eyes flickered as she asked softly.
King Yan and King Lu were slightly startled. They also felt that Lin Feng's expression was slightly strange. They were slightly surprised.
Looking at everyone, Lin Feng's gaze flickered. He paused his steps and thought for a while before deciding to tell everyone. This matter did not concern him alone. It concerned the entire Southern Region and even the entire human race. They had the right to know.
Moreover, now that he was in charge of the Southern Region, it was necessary for him to gather his thoughts in the face of such a situation.
"There's something I want to tell everyone." Lin Feng's voice was firm. His dignified expression instantly caused the atmosphere to become heavy. Everyone held their breaths. Lin Feng's gaze swept across these familiar faces. He nodded fervently and said, "The Demon Race is here."
These four short words caused everyone's eyes to widen and their breathing to stop.
The Demon Clan had come?
What did that mean?
The third Great Witch-Demon War was about to begin!
Everyone gasped and looked at each other in dismay. They felt that the shock of this news was too unbelievable.
"Is the news accurate?" Shun's eyes sparkled as he looked at Lin Feng.
Everyone's eyes lit up, and their breathing quickened. No matter what, they didn't want this to be true.
However, the truth was still the truth, and it would not be changed by one's will.
"100%. Absolutely true." Lin Feng's voice shattered everyone's last glimmer of hope. Everyone's face turned pale. The fear of the Demon Race had long been deeply ingrained in the hearts of every Saint, and even in the hearts of every warrior.
Lin Feng looked at the changes in everyone's expressions, but he also understood.
The two Great Witch-Demon Wars had become legends, but it had always been widely spread and passed down from generation to generation.
The devastation and violence of the Demon Race were deeply ingrained in people's hearts.
This news was extremely shocking!
He looked at Shun and nodded. The two already had a tacit understanding.
"We don't know the specific situation yet. Everyone, don't make it public for the time being." Shun pursed his lips and said seriously. "Let's go back to Taoyuan first, and then we'll think about it." Everyone looked at each other and nodded in agreement. This was the best solution for now.

Northern Region.
"Dead?" Zuo Bufan was slightly startled.
The surprise in his eyes was undisguised. He was extremely shocked after hearing the news.
"Yes, Master." On the other side of the compass, a low voice sounded. "Unfortunately, he was assassinated by Lin Feng on the challenge platform."
Lin Feng again!
Zuo Bufan's eyes lit up. "So, Lin Feng does indeed have the strength of a Saint King?"
"Yes." There was no hesitation on the other side of the compass, and the voice was cold. "Bottomless. He had clearly exhausted all his strength to kill King Ju, but his aura became extremely strong as soon as he turned around. Although he is at the peak of the Saint Realm, he definitely has the strength of a beginner or even an intermediate Saint King. "
The evaluation was quite high.
Zuo Bufan frowned and did not speak.
To him, King Ju's death was nothing. He was just a chess piece.
But now the situation in the Southern Region was no longer under control. Most importantly, the sudden appearance of Lin Feng had completely disrupted his entire plan. He flipped through the information in his hands with an ugly expression. Rows of words clearly recorded Lin Feng's past. Zuo Bufan's fingers tapped on the table, and his eyes changed.
"Then how do you think we should deal with him?" Zuo Bufan asked quietly.
There was a sudden silence on the other side of the compass. After a long time, the voice said in a low voice, "Everyone has a weakness."
"His family?" Zuo Bufan's eyes sparkled coldly.
The other side of the compass responded softly. "Lin Feng values his family very much, especially his closest relatives. If we can capture either of his two wives, Lin Yumo or Qin Qianqian, they will listen to us obediently and be controlled by us. However, both of them have a certain degree of difficulty now. "
"What do you mean?" Zuo Bufan's lips curled coldly.
The other side of the compass had obviously done a lot of work. "Qin Qianqian disappeared after being brought back by Lin Feng from the Yellow Crane Continent. It was as if she had suddenly disappeared from the world. There has been no news of her until now."
"So what if it's Lin Yumo?" Zuo Bufan frowned slightly.
"Lin Yumo has been taken in as a disciple by the current President of the Zhuque Chau Refiners' Union, 'Lady Nangong'. She has been practicing the art of refining in seclusion. She doesn't go out and doesn't take a step out." The other side of the compass paused for a moment. "If we want to capture her, we have to break into the Zhuque Chau Refiners' Union. It will definitely cause a big commotion."
The Union of Artificers was not only one of the largest forces in the entire Southern Region, but also one of the largest forces in the entire human territory.
Even Zuo Bufan was having a headache at this moment. However, he didn't dare to confront them directly.
Even if he succeeded, he would have to pay a huge price. And if he failed, the consequences would be even more unpredictable!
"Hmm …" Zuo Bufan pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
This was a huge gamble for him.
To take the gamble or not to take it?
Suddenly —
"Oh?" Zuo Bufan raised his head. His eyes were sharp and awe-inspiring as he looked outside the hall.
A familiar aura was rushing over at an extremely fast speed. The aura was somewhat flustered and urgent, which was very rare. "We'll discuss this matter later. Continue to gather information," Zuo Bufan said briefly. As soon as he finished speaking, he pressed the compass and ended the call without waiting for a reply.
At this moment, a figure appeared in the hall in the blink of an eye. It was Elder Liu, whose face was ashen.
He was panting, and his expression was solemn.
"Elder Liu, why are you so flustered?" Zuo Bufan asked in surprise.
"Reporting to the Alliance Master, something bad has happened!" Elder Liu took a deep breath and calmed his mind. He looked straight at Zuo Bufan with sparkling eyes. His body seemed to be trembling slightly as he said slowly, "The Witch Emperor has just sent a personal order …"
"The Demon Race's army has already entered!"
…
…
Taoyuan.
The atmosphere was solemn.
Everyone gathered together and waited for Shun's final confirmation.
Soon —
Under everyone's gaze, Shun staggered over with a solemn expression. Everyone knew that something bad had happened just by looking at his expression. Sure enough, before he opened his mouth, Shun had already nodded in response to everyone's puzzled expressions. "Lin Feng's information is very accurate. He found out about it almost at the same time as the Witch Race and the Ancient Race."
Five pairs of eyes converged, filled with surprise and curiosity.
Although everyone believed in Lin Feng's strength, Lin Feng was still young after all. In terms of network and connections, he was far from Shun's.
However, they did not expect that he would be the first to find out about it!
Everyone looked at Lin Feng. The more they looked at him, the more mysterious he seemed.
However, Lin Feng dismissed it with a smile.
There was no need to tell them where the information came from. There was also no need to tell others about his background. Sometimes, it was not a bad thing to keep a sense of mystery. At this moment, Shun's voice suddenly sounded. "The Eight Major Territory Alliance of the Human Race has already started to move. They are gathering human warriors on a large scale."
"I'm afraid the battle will start soon."
The dust had settled!
Everyone's eyes were burning. There was no longer any hope in their hearts. They had to accept this fact.
"Then what should we do?" King Lu looked at Shun. His gaze then fell on Lin Feng. After all, he was the Second Senior Brother. In terms of strength and EQ, King Lu was only below Shun. Although he was a fence-sitter, he was not careless at the crucial moment. He was indeed capable.
"I have not experienced the War of Liches and Demons. It is more appropriate to let Emperor Shun make the arrangements." Lin Feng nodded lightly.
There was no need to show off. He was never suited to be a ruler. In the Kingdom of Maru, he was only known as the 'Holy King' in name.
Moreover, he trusted Shun's experience and judgment.
Don't use people you don't trust.
Shun nodded. He did not decline modestly. "Actually, other than Master, none of us here have experienced the War of Liches and Demons. I have also heard Master mention it occasionally. The War of Liches and Demons … is a continuous war. Like all wars, there will be two armies confronting each other. They will slowly play, test each other, attack each other, etc. It will not end in a short period of time. "
Everyone nodded thoughtfully. Lin Feng's eyes lit up.
It was very similar to the 'beast riot' in the Kingdom of Maru. It should be said that it was similar to any war.
No one would directly launch an all-out attack in a situation where their strength was unknown. This was especially so when the alliance of the three major human races was the 'defending side.' They had a large expanse of land and had the geographical advantage.
"I heard from Master that in the second War of Liches and Demons, the demon race made the mistake of rushing forward."
"At that time, the Demon Emperors did not submit to anyone. They relied on their military strength that was far superior to the three major human races and wanted to make contributions. However, they did not want to be lured into the enemy's territory and defeated one by one. At that time, many demon stars fell into the ancient race's formation and were killed by the Demon Emperors. That battle is probably still fresh in the demon race's memory. "
