Fire Ant, Yuchi Ba, Han Tuhu, and Suo Chaolong were somewhat stunned. They all looked at Li Yao.
Li Yao sat cross-legged and gave the expanded spinal cord at the end of his spine a more comfortable space to think. He pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps, Elder Nether Spring was unwilling to expose himself, but he had no other choice now that he was caught in a dilemma.
"Think about it. A week ago, Elder Nether Spring was truly forced into desperation. His entire plan was on the brink of destruction!
"His identity and purpose were exposed. The 'Nether World Watch', his secret army, was exposed to us, too. The 'Nether World', the most important research base, was turned upside down by us, and the research ability was temporarily lost.
"What was even more dreadful was that the memory unit of the main biochemical brain, which stored tremendous experiment data and core secrets, was obtained by us!
"Both Fire Ant and Suo Chaolong are silver-blood demons on the surface. They are nobles with thousands of connections in the Pantheon of Demons. Do you not know any of the demon emperors?
"It is very easy for you to reach out to other demon emperors. As long as you tell them your name, they will at least meet you and listen to you patiently for a few hours, won't they?
"If you go to the demon emperors with all the evidence, what will happen to Elder Nether Spring?
"Yes. You will get yourselves involved if you do that, especially Fire Ant. It is barely possible for you to disguise your identity as the leader of the Blade of Chaos anymore. But who knows what you are thinking? Maybe you are determined to die together with Elder Nether Spring regardless of everything! Or perhaps you will use a special method to send the evidence out! "
"Of course, the demon emperors will not believe everything you say based on the few files and experiment records. But they will certainly grow suspicious and start investigating.
"Certain things are almost impossible to hide. For example, the island of the Nether World in the gloomy North Pole will certainly be discovered as long as a few devilish warships are sent to search the coordinates nearby.
"As a result, Elder Nether Spring's plan will certainly be affected. Serious interference will be caused.
"Weren't we discussing how to reveal Elder Nether Spring's real face in such a way just now?
"Therefore, now that the truth is out, instead of waiting for you to accuse him, you might as well reveal the truth. Why don't you reveal it yourself? "
"Do you know how to stop the forest fire from spreading?"
Everyone was stunned. They didn't understand why Li Yao would say such a thing out of the blue. They all shook their heads.
Li Yao smiled faintly and said, "When the forest fire is already burning fiercely. When the fire cannot be extinguished for a while, the best thing to do is to put out a new fire that can be controlled outside the fire and burn a 'fire barrier' to compress the forest fire to its smallest state, or to lead it to a less important direction. "
"It is obvious that Elder Nether Spring manipulated Master Hollow Wind to set up a fire on his own initiative and established a 'fire-proof belt'!
"Now, whether it's the Fire Ant, Suo Chaolong, or me. No matter which demon city they appear in, they'll be attacked like a storm. It's extremely difficult to see a demon emperor through normal means. "
"Even though we have successfully met a demon emperor after all the obstacles and even provided the 'evidence', they have already been convinced that we are conducting a 'strategic deception'. They will find it hard to believe us, too.
"It's safe to say that half a month ago, in the Mausoleum of Chaos, Elder Nether Spring accidentally brought me into the Mausoleum of Chaos. He brought me, an unexpected factor, back to his lair, which led to the destruction of his entire plan. In the end, he exposed a huge weakness. "
"But right now, through a series of operations, he has sealed the weakness and made himself invulnerable again!"
"One of the twelve demon emperors of the Pantheon of Demons," Han Tuhu said solemnly. "They are definitely not easy to deal with. Such a deception can only be kept for a while."
"A while is enough."
Li Yao said calmly, "As long as we can mislead everyone and delay the Spore Stratagem until it is successfully activated, I believe that the moment is not far away."
Suo Chaolong frowned. "Elder Nether Spring has succeeded, but the price is that he has lost most of his control over the Nether Spring Kingdom. He has even been kicked out of the highest decision-making circle of the Pantheon of Demons."
"So what?"
Li Yao asked back. "The armed force that Elder Nether Spring really relies on is the 'Nether World Watch', which is his trusted subordinates. All the nobles and troops of the Nether Spring Kingdom will certainly not obey him once they learn that he is not a real silver-blood demon.
"I don't think that Elder Nether Spring will want such a fickle army that is not absolutely loyal and may change sides at any moment!
"As for being kicked out of the highest decision-making circle, it's even simpler. That was his purpose in the first place."
"What?"
The Fire Ant, Suo Chaolong, and Han Tuhu were all dazed. "Why did Elder Nether Spring kick himself out of the highest decision-making circle of the Pantheon of Demons?"
"Not kick him out, but stay away from him."
Li Yao's eyes were unpredictable. He seemed to be staring at Elder Nether Spring who was tens of thousands of kilometers away and confronting the schemer lurking in the depths of the Blood Demon Sector remotely through the wall.
Li Yao pondered for a long time before he turned his eyes to Yuchi Ba. "Master Yuchi, according to your intelligence, the four major demon kingdoms and all the demon cities have strengthened the collection of assets and the recruitment of soldiers. An unprecedented general mobilization is being carried out, right?"
"Exactly," Yuchi Ba said.
Yuchi Ba said. "I've never seen such a mobilization before. Even the young people above twelve in the noble families of the silver-blood demons have been mobilized into the 'Youth Defense Team'. The entire Blood Demon Sector seems to be in the middle of a great storm and a great war!"
"That's right!"
Li Yao narrowed his eyes and mumbled, "After learning the existence of the Flying Star Sector, the first reaction of Suo Chaolong and Han Tuhu, the two commanders, was that the Pantheon of Demons would probably risk everything and launch a national war! Master Yuchi's intelligence supports the conclusion, too.
"Here comes the question. If the Pantheon of Demons is really going to fight with all the forces of the Sector, Elder Nether Spring, as one of the four giants of the Blood Demon Sector, will certainly stay in the highest decision-making circle together with the other eleven demon emperors, won't he?
"Chances are that he will stay in a secret command center and deal with countless military affairs together with almost ten demon emperors day and night.
"All the personnel, assets, and information entering and leaving the command center will be strictly examined to make sure that no telepathic thoughts will be leaked out. Even a fly will not be able to get in, right?
"If he does end up in such a command center, how can he carry out the Spore Stratagem?
"The final war with the Xing Yao Federation is about to begin. As one of the four giants of the Blood Demon Sector, Elder Nether Spring, who has always been keen on wars, is disappearing every now and then. Isn't it weird?
"It must be noted that the people who are staying with him day and night are not ordinary people but demon emperors who have keen senses and quick minds! If we reveal even the slightest clue, we will be suspected! "
"Therefore, Elder Nether Spring must stay away from the highest decision-making circle. To be more exact, he must stay away from the cage named 'command center' and the eyes of the demon emperors.
"It's true that a series of investigations will be conducted on him. But right now, all the demon emperors' attention is focused on the final war with the Tian Yuan Realm. The investigation on him will certainly be done hastily.
"After all, he has lost his power and is now a dead dog. Nobody will choose to beat a dead dog at such a moment!"
Li Yao went on. "As a result, Elder Nether Spring will have precious time and space to carry out the Spore Stratagem without any worries.
"Besides, there is another advantage to staying away from the highest decision-making circle. When the Blood Demon Sector and the Tian Yuan Realm really go to war, it will be impossible for Elder Nether Spring, who has been ousted and humiliated, to lead the charge!
"When other demon emperors are marching in the Tian Yuan Realm with their armies, Elder Nether Spring, who has' lost his power 'and is' frustrated ', will be responsible for the simple logistical work in the rear. It doesn't make any sense, does it?
"Elder Nether Spring will never resign from the important post in the Pantheon of Demons voluntarily. That would be too strange. Therefore, he must have exposed the real identity of the Fire Ant through Master Hollow Wind so that he would be implicated and ousted!
"Everybody knows that there is a lot of grudges between Master Hollow Wind and Elder Nether Spring. Nobody will suspect anything!"
There was silence.
Han Tuhu and Suo Chaolong took a long breath and looked at Li Yao weirdly.
"Elder Nether Spring is too terrifying," Han Tuhu mumbled. "He is playing everybody in the Pantheon of Demons like a puppet!"
Suo Chaolong's eyelids were twitching crazily. "Why do I feel that Li Yao is even more dreadful than him?"
"If everything is true, then everything is settled," Yuchi Ba said in a hurry. "What should we do?"
Li Yao thought for a moment and said resolutely, "All the more reason to find Jin Xinyue!
"If a national war does break out between the Blood Demon Sector and the Tian Yuan Realm, we have to know how the war will take place so that we can find a way to stop it!
"As the daughter of the commander-in-chief of the Coalition Army of Demons, Jin Xinyue may be able to help us infer what her father is thinking.
"Besides, we are all the most wanted criminals right now. It is almost impossible for us to reach out to any demon emperor through legal channels.
"Jin Xinyue is a saintess of the Pantheon of Demons. She must be familiar with the layout of the headquarters of the Pantheon of Demons. She must know how to sneak into the headquarters of the Pantheon of Demons without alarming anyone and show up in front of the demon emperors directly!
"Sneak into the headquarters of the Pantheon of Demons!"
Everybody was completely shocked by Li Yao's bold idea.
After a long daze, Yuchi Ba breathed hard and said, "However, when we approached Void Turmoil City, the place was already surrounded by the Coalition Army of Demons and could be attacked at any moment. Chances are that the city has already been taken over by now.
"I didn't have enough manpower with me. There was no way for me to sneak into Void Turmoil City and find Jin Xinyue."
"Now that Fire Ant's identity has been exposed," Li Yao said, "Of course, Void Turmoil City cannot have been spared. Chances are that it has already turned into an ocean of fire.
"However, I have confidence in Jin Xinyue's ability to survive. She won't be killed so easily.
"Next, I will go to Void Turmoil City and get her out!"
Brothers, after so many days of exploding, this old bull really can't take it anymore. My head is so empty that everything I see is blurred.
