Chapter 152: The Demon Race’s Plot, Leng Jiahang’s Worry

The Demon Race's Void Refinement Stage Old Ancestor stepped out of the teleportation array, looking at the long-lost scene of the Southern Region. He had finally returned to this Southern Region; he was also a survivor of the last War between Immortals and Demons.

Back then, they were driven out of the Southern Region and suffered endless humiliation. They had been waiting for this day to come.

This time, they would wash away their past shame. Their strength this time was far greater than the last, which gave them even more confidence.

He knew that on the surface, the Southern Region had no Void Refinement Stage experts, but it certainly wasn't that simple. There must be old fellows at the Void Refinement Stage hiding within the Sects, recuperating from their injuries.

Perhaps some of his old acquaintances were among them.

However, they didn't just have him as a Void Refinement Stage existence on their side. When the time came, they would see whose side was stronger. He was more confident in their recovery speed than that of the Human Race.

After all, they were Demon Clan members who could restore themselves by absorbing others.

And there weren't many in the Human Race who would do such a thing.

Subsequently, Jiang Cheng brought their Demon Ancestor into the interior of the Sect and introduced him to the current basic situation of the Southern Region.

As well as those people who needed to be watched.

The Demon Ancestor looked at Jiang Cheng. "Are there any reports of Void Refinement Stage experts in the Southern Region now?"

"There aren't any, but there is a Human Race Genius named Ye Lin in the Southern Region whose strength is very high. I estimate that I might not necessarily be his match now."

"He rarely makes a move, so I don't know if he has any hidden cards."

"That doesn't matter. In the end, he is just an ant at the Soul Transformation Stage; how could he possibly rival me at the Void Refinement Stage?"

"Do not take this to heart. With me here, I can cover for you."

"Our Demon Race also has Prodigies. When the time comes, I will call him over, so that the people of the Southern Region can experience the terror of our Demon Race Prodigies."

"Old Ancestor, the Spirit Sea Sect is very easy for us to break through right now. They have quite a few Elders within their Sect who are our people, and no particularly outstanding individuals have appeared among them."

"The other one is the Joyful Union Sect. Their Sect is much the same, but this Sect doesn't have much value. They mainly rely on Dual Cultivation to accelerate the growth of their cultivation."

This was indeed similar to him, but his method was different. The Joyful Union Sect benefited both parties, whereas his was absolutely selfish; he used Dual Cultivation to absorb others' Foundation and cultivation to strengthen himself.

This was the Heaven-Defying effect of the Yin Yang Demon Pearl. Something with such an effect was only recorded in history.

Moreover, with the addition of the Yin Yang Art, he could perfectly balance the Yin and Yang, both of which complemented each other.

Besides, his previous self was, after all, a person from the Joyful Union Sect, so he was quite familiar with it.

He would also capture people from the Joyful Union Sect to raise his cultivation, but the boost the Joyful Union Sect provided him was truly too limited.

Furthermore, their Foundation was not pure, which was fundamentally and clearly different from the gains brought to him by people from other Sects.

Not to mention comparing them to the female cultivators of the Celestial Maiden Sect.

The people of the Celestial Maiden Sect were his main targets, and he had heard of many high-cultivation individuals from the Celestial Maiden Sect.

Those famous people were all his targets. If he could capture someone at the Soul Transformation Stage, it would undoubtedly be a huge boost for him.

But capturing someone at the Soul Transformation Stage was easier said than done. However, now that the Old Ancestor was here, perhaps there would be an opportunity.

Jiang Cheng called Chen An in. "Old Ancestor, this Chen An has made indispensable contributions to the preparations this time. Many things were investigated by him."

"Good, not bad. The Demon Race needs such people. When the Southern Region is taken, there will be heavy rewards."

Chen An cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Old Ancestor."

"By the way, Chen An, is there any information recently?"

"Yes. Information has come from the Spirit Sea Sect side that two Nascent Soul Stage individuals are heading to one of our strongholds to investigate."

"Good. We will just use them to make an example. This time, the kind of thing that happened last time must never happen again."

Subsequently, Jiang Cheng had Chen An explain the specific current situation of the Southern Region to those who had just arrived.

Leng Jiahang looked into the distance. Those two Nascent Soul Stage individuals from the Spirit Sea Sect were ambushed by the Demon Race while investigating Demon Race affairs and fell on the spot. It seemed that this time, someone at the Soul Transformation Stage had gone.

This was to ensure nothing went wrong. If he remembered correctly, that Demon Ancestor at the Void Refinement Stage should have already arrived in the Southern Region by now.

This was also what gave him a headache. It would be fine if he had to deal with someone at the Soul Transformation Stage, but it was currently impossible for him to deal with that Demon Ancestor at the Void Refinement Stage.

When the time came, he could only rely on Ye Lin.

At this moment, Leng Jiahang saw the Sect Master still standing by his side, looking at him as if waiting for him.

He walked over. "Sect Master, is there something you need me for?"

Qi Liang nodded. "That's right. I do have something to discuss with you, and it concerns our Sect. Not many people know about this, but now that you have reached the Soul Transformation Stage, it is time for you to know."

Oh? This surprised Leng Jiahang. It seemed the Sect was hiding secrets as well.

In his previous life, he didn't know any secrets about the Sect; his Golden Core Stage cultivation hadn't given him the qualifications.

He also hadn't lived to see the complete ending of the War between Immortals and Demons. It seemed this time, he would be able to know what trump cards the Sect still held.

Qi Liang looked at Leng Jiahang. "Come with me."

Qi Liang brought Leng Jiahang to the place of the Sect's Old Ancestor, which was the place Ye Lin came to last time.

Leng Jiahang had never been to this place before. If the Sect Master hadn't brought him here this time, he wouldn't have known that such a place existed within the Sect.

Qi Liang then explained to him, "This place is where our Sect's Old Ancestors are recuperating from their injuries. Our Sect actually has two Old Ancestors at the Void Refinement Stage; they are our Sect's final trump cards."

"Moreover, these two Old Ancestors were top-tier ruthless characters in the last War between Immortals and Demons. Any one of them, if brought out, could make Demon Clan members tremble with fear."

"Not many people know of the Old Ancestors' existence; only the various Peak Masters and those who have reached the Soul Transformation Stage know."

"Ye Lin and the others also know of the Old Ancestors' existence. A few years ago, Ye Lin also Cultivated here while following the Old Ancestors for a period of time."

"You also possess Sword Intent. It just so happens that you can ask the Old Ancestors some questions about the Dao of the sword. You should know that when Ye Lin mastered the Sword Domain, he also improved a lot under the Old Ancestors' guidance."

After hearing what the Sect Master said, he guessed that one of the Old Ancestors must have mastered the Sword Domain.

He hadn't expected that their Profound Heaven Sect still had two powerful Void Refinement Stage Old Ancestors.

This was truly an unexpected pleasant surprise. He had just been worrying about that Void Refinement Stage person from the Demon Race, but now it seemed he didn't need to worry too much.

It was just a pity that his Breakthrough came a bit late; otherwise, he could have come earlier to Cultivate while following the Old Ancestors. But now, there wasn't much time left for him to Cultivate.

What a pity.

But he still very much wanted to meet the two Old Ancestors and witness their Sect's Void Refinement Stage Old Ancestors.
