Shen Tianxian immediately realized that the "south" Shen Hao was talking about was not the southern part of the Central Region.
Shen Hao was referring to the vast Southern Wasteland, which was further south and across the sea from the Central Region.
Compared to the inconspicuous Eastern Border and Northern Mang, the Southern Wasteland had always been a target of the Central Region's vigilance.
That was because it was mainly occupied by the demon race and demon cultivators.
Although there were demon cultivators and big demons in the Central Region, Eastern Border, Northern Mang, and other places, they were in the minority and did not belong to the mainstream. They hid in the dangerous mountains and rivers all year round, like rats on the street.
In the Southern Wasteland, demons and demons were the masters.
Now that Shen Hao said there were guests in the south, Shen Tianxian was thoughtful. "Golden-winged Giant Rocs?"
He had heard that the Golden-winged Giant Rocs, who had risen in the Southern Wasteland in recent years, also had conflicts with Chang 'an.
Rumor had it that a Giant Rocs, who had cultivated the body of a Demon Emperor, died in Chang 'an.
The Golden-winged Giant Rocs were now rising in the Southern Wasteland. They were used to being arrogant and domineering. How could they swallow this insult?
However, the people they sent to take revenge or inquire about information were all strangely cut off.
Chang 'an was too mysterious for them.
Although the Giant Rocs were arrogant, they were still somewhat afraid.
They also heard that there were people in the Central Region who had bad relations with Chang 'an. Because of the difference between demons and humans, the Giant Rocs had never thought of joining forces with the people in the Central Region to deal with Chang' an.
However, after the news of Chang 'an and the Twelve Kings of Hell came, the Giant Rocs changed their minds.
In the past, a top Demon Emperor invaded the Central Region and died in the hands of the Twelve Kings of Hell.
It was because of the fall of the former overlord that many demons in the Southern Wasteland fell into a chaotic battle. In recent years, the Golden-winged Giant Rocs gradually rose to prominence.
But now, the people who had struck fear into the hearts of the demons had returned …
A middle-aged man with a gloomy face and light golden hair quietly came to Shen Tianxian's study under the guidance of Shen Hao.
"Orange Light, I've heard a lot about you." Shen Tianxian looked at him quietly.
This middle-aged man was a Golden-winged Giant Basin Bird in human form.
In recent years, the name of the Great Roc Orange Light had also become quite famous among the major sects and holy grounds of the Central Plains.
Orange Light was one of the core leaders of the Golden-winged Great Roc Clan's rise in the Southern Wasteland.
"Mr. Shen, I came here personally to verify something." Orange Light, who had transformed into his human form, spoke with a deep and hoarse voice, "Is Chang 'an City really the place where the Twelve Kings of Hell have reappeared?"
"That's right." Shen Tianxian nodded.
Slowly, he looked at the big demon in front of him and said, "At present, we can confirm that eight, eleven, and twelve of them are all in Chang 'an. Apart from them, the' Sword Devil 'Su Po, ranked seventh, although he has shown up, there seems to be something fishy about him. We can't conclude that he is in cahoots with Chang' an."
Cheng Guang nodded. "I heard that the Sword Demon's cultivation realm is not inferior to the past, and his swordsmanship has even improved?"
Shen Tianxian said, "I haven't fought with him personally, but according to the news I've received, the Sword Demon's swordsmanship has indeed improved."
Shen Hao didn't say anything, but he looked at Orange Light thoughtfully.
Orange Light came from the Southern Wilderness, so he shouldn't know the specific details of Su Po's cultivation realm.
Shen Hao could only think of one person who had given him the information.
The leader of the Southern Sect of Mount Shu, Han Feiyu.
Are the two of them connected?
While Shen Hao was deep in thought, Orange Light stared at Shen Tianxian and focused on something else.
"Apart from the Sword Devil, Mr. Shen mentioned Twelve just now?"
Shen Tianxian's expression was calm. "Yes, although I don't know the name of her reincarnation, she is indeed in Chang 'an."
As if he knew what Orange Light was thinking, Shen Tianxian calmly added, "Unfortunately, my son was killed in Chang 'an, and it was Shen Herong who killed him."
Hearing this, Orange Light was a little surprised. "You two turned against each other?"
Shen Tianxian nodded. "It's a long story, but now and in the future, we are all enemies."
"On my way here, I heard that the Zhao Family Dynasty was destroyed?" Orange Light asked.
Shen Hao answered, "The Zhao Family Dynasty was indeed destroyed by Chang 'an. Apart from that, the Lou Family Dynasty was also involved in Chang' an."
"Oh? Then everyone will gather together. "Cheng Guang Cheng Guang's eyes flashed coldly when he heard this.
The Lou Family Dynasty was located in the southeast of the Central Plains, and its southern border was across the sea from the Southern Wilderness.
Basically, if the demons came from the north to the Central Plains, their first stop would either be the Da Yin Dynasty or the Da Feng Dynasty in the southwest.
Between humans and demons, there was a lot of blood on each other's hands, and there was a lot of conflict.
Strictly speaking, the Nine Peaks Academy had fought with various demons over the years, and both sides had suffered casualties.
Some of the Golden-Winged Rocs had been killed by the teachers and students of the Nine Peaks Academy.
"Let's put the past aside for now. Chang 'an is still there, so we can talk about it later."
Orange Light said directly, "What do you think, Mr. Shen?"
"It's good that you are so sincere."
Shen Tianxian smiled. "Now, we have a common enemy, so we can turn hostility into friendship. However, to be honest, Chang 'an's next target is probably here."
Orange Light said, "You have a saying, 'without lips, the teeth will feel cold'. Since we are all united now, my race will help.
I will contact my race and invite more elites to the Central Plains as soon as possible. At the same time, I will contact the other races in the Southern Wilderness to discuss this matter.
Since Mr. Shen said that the threat is imminent, then to show my sincerity, I will stay and face this battle with you. "
Shen Tianxian and Shen Hao were happy to hear that.
Orange Light was a fourth-level Demon Emperor, a top demon at the fifteenth level of cultivation.
In terms of strength, even Shen Tianxian was not confident that he could defeat him.
With such a strong ally, they would have more confidence in facing Chang 'an.
"Mr. Orange Light, I am very grateful for your kindness," Shen Tianxian said. "It's also good to let you know that the elites of the Central Plains will come to help us in the battle. We are not alone."
Orange Light's golden eyebrows moved slightly. "Will Peng Ziling and Kong Shengzhen also come?"
Shen Tianxian nodded. "I have received a letter from them. Both of them will come."
Hearing this, the roc in human form nodded slightly. "Alright, then I'll be troubling you for the next few days."
"You are too polite." Shen Tianxian chatted with Orange Light for a while, and then Shen Hao took Orange Light out of the old man's study to find a place to rest.
After Shen Hao came back, he shook his head slightly. "A demon is a demon. Instead of staying in the guest room, he chose to rest in the wild forest in the mountains. He doesn't understand the principle of 'when in Rome, do as the Romans do.'"
"Let him be."
Shen Tianxian said, "With his help, we will be much more relaxed."
"I understand." Shen Hao nodded and then frowned again. "I tried again earlier, but I still couldn't contact Dongming."
Wang Che, Wang Dongming, was the Peak Master of the Second Peak of the Nine Peaks Academy. Besides the Shen family, he was the Confucian grandmaster with the highest status in the Nine Peaks Academy.
It was often said that in the Nine Peaks Academy, he was second only to the Dean, Shen Tianxian.
Because he was extremely young, many people were optimistic about him, and he would soon surpass Shen Tianxian.
However, he had always been undisciplined and often traveled outside. So in the Mirror Lake Nine Peaks, the other teachers and students of the academy rarely saw him.
It was not the first time that they lost contact like this.
But Shen Hao had never felt that the situation was as urgent as it was today.
Even when the Saint Yan Mansion forced him to the brink, he did not feel such suffocating pressure.
"Continue to send letters. Don't give up," Shen Tianxian ordered.
"Yes," Shen Hao responded, but he felt that the old man in front of him did not seem to be disappointed.
Shen Tianxian pondered for a moment and said, "Ask Yuan 'er to come here."
Shen Hao nodded. "Yes."
The "Yuan 'er" Shen Tianxian mentioned was Shen Yuan, the most outstanding disciple of the Shen family.
Generally speaking, everyone called the fourth and fifth level Confucian Grandmasters as Great Grandmasters.
The Seventh Peak Master, Shen Yuan, was the third Great Grandmaster of the Nine Peaks Academy besides Shen Tianxian and Wang Che. He was young and above Shen Hao and the others.
In the entire history of the Shen family, except for Shen Herong, he was the youngest Great Grandmaster.
Of course, excluding Shen Herong, the Shen family had only produced two Confucian Great Grandmasters. But even if Shen Yuan was in the Saint Yan Mansion, his talent was still outstanding.
Shen Hao went to find Shen Yuan. Shen Tianxian let out a long breath and sat quietly in the study.
The old man did not lie to the golden-winged roc.
Now in the Central Region, the clouds were moving in all directions and gradually gathering toward a center.
Inside the Tai Qing Palace, the Sect Master, Peng Ziling, said, "More than 30 years ago, the evil did not end. If we delay it any longer, it will be difficult to avoid trouble. We should learn from the mistakes of the past."
"Elder Brother Sect Master is right." Perfected Qing He cupped his fist in a Daoist gesture.
Peng Ziling turned to look at Ying Xiaowo, who looked like a young Daoist. "How are the preparations?"
"Everything is ready, but we still need to act according to the situation," Ying Xiaowo answered.
Peng Ziling nodded. "Let's go."
Purple Qi suddenly surged in front of him, and then a black and white Tai Chi Diagram appeared.
The Tai Chi Diagram was like a door. The people of the Tai Qing Palace immediately stepped into it and then disappeared.
At the same time, in the Saint Yan Mansion, several sedan chairs flew into the sky.
The current Lord of the Saint Yan Mansion, Kong Shengzhen, was sitting in one of the sedan chairs.
"Has Perfected Peng left?"
Kong Qing, who was sitting in another sedan chair, suddenly heard Kong Shengzhen's voice.
Kong Qing, who was in the sedan chair, answered, "Uncle, the Tai Qing Palace sent news that Sect Master Peng and Perfected Qing He have already left. They agreed to meet us at the Nine Peaks Academy."
"Then let's go."
Under Kong Shengzhen's order, the team of the Saint Yan Mansion flew all the way south to the Mirror Lake Nine Peaks on the ground of the Jing Dynasty.
