Chapter 156: The Demon Race Undercover Exposed
Su Yu had long anticipated that his Passerby team would find him.
Wang Yang saw Su Yu sitting in the courtyard and waved to greet him, "Brother Su."
"Brother Wang, you've come. Come, please sit."
Wang Yang, Li Yun, and the others walked over and sat down beside Su Yu.
"Brother Su, you must have guessed why we came to find you, right?"
Su Yu nodded, "I know. I will go with you."
Wang Yang said happily, "I knew you would join us in this operation, Brother Su."
"If our team were missing you this time, it would be missing its Soul."
"After such a long time of working together, we have long been able to unleash potential beyond our original limits."
Su Yu knew this; after all, it was basically the same few people every time, and they already understood each other quite well.
A single glance or gesture was enough to judge what they would do next and what instructions were implied.
This wasn't something that could be trained in a short amount of time.
Su Yu looked at them. Currently, Wang Yang and Li Yun still had the highest cultivation, having reached the Middle Stage of the Golden Core Stage.
The others had reached the early Golden Core Stage. One of them had even had a Breakthrough right before the battle, but that didn't matter.
With this group combined, as long as they didn't encounter a Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage, they would have the power to fight.
They wouldn't provoke those Nascent Soul Stage Demon Race members either. They had been struggling in the Cultivation World for so many years; they were very clear about what should be done and what shouldn't.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to return every time they went out. It was because they were cautious enough and never did things beyond their capabilities.
They wouldn't decide to do anything based on a moment of impulse.
Wang Yang looked at Su Yu and the others, "I cannot be certain if we can retreat unscathed in this War between Immortals and Demons. We can only do the work we are meant to do."
"But for us to deal with Demon Cultivators below the Nascent Soul Stage, it won't be a problem, as long as we are careful."
"I never expected that a thousand years later, we would have to experience another War between Immortals and Demons, and this time, we are participants."
"The last great war against the Yao Race is still fresh in my memory, and now we are going to fight against the Demon Race again."
"But the one with the Yao Race was just a minor scuffle. This time, the Demon Race is determined to fight to the death."
Wang Yang looked at Su Yu, "Brother Su, when the time comes, we will act after we learn the situation. We will go to support a location first."
"Once we know the situation on the Demon Race's side, we will decide whether or not to make a move."
"Only by doing this can we increase our chances of survival. If we act rashly without gathering intelligence and encounter a Nascent Soul Stage Demon Race member, we would be wiped out."
Su Yu picked up his wine cup, "Alright, I understand. When are we planning to set off?"
Wang Yang thought for a moment, "We don't need to rush for now. No need to leave immediately. Let's first observe the actions of the Demon Clan members before making plans."
"According to what I know, many people from the Eight Great Sects have already headed to various places. One more of us doesn't make much difference, and one less doesn't either."
"Let's first observe the next move of the Demon Clan members and see where the forces are relatively weak. It has only just begun, so we don't need to be so anxious."
Li Yun looked at everyone, "That's true. Alright, Brother Wang, when you feel the time is right, just notify us, and we will be ready at your call."
"Alright, I will call you when the time comes. Let's just have a good gathering today; there won't be much time to drink together like this later."
After the gathering, they left Su Yu's courtyard.
They would definitely take action before long; perhaps they would set off in a couple of days.
They could only play a role during this period. If the war reached the Late Stage, they wouldn't be of much use.
Their status and cultivation destined them to be Passerbys in the War between Immortals and Demons. If they were lucky, they might survive; if they were unlucky, there was nothing to be done.
They could not influence the direction of the war; they could only contribute a little of their own strength.
Su Yu had also said he would intervene in the War between Immortals and Demons, but basically only within the limits of his status and strength as a Passerby.
Unless there was truly some unexpected change.
Su Yu looked at the sky, watching many Disciples of their Profound Heaven Sect heading off into the distance.
Let me use the perspective of a Passerby to see how the War between Immortals and Demons will unfold. He could at least witness an event that would influence history.
Before long, many people who had headed to various places received news that the Demon Clan members had already begun their attack.
A large number of Demon Clan members at the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core Stages appeared.
Upon learning the situation, they rushed to provide support.
On the Demon Race's side, looking at the fighting crowd below, there was nothing unusual. For now, it seemed they had the advantage.
But they also knew that reinforcements would arrive soon, though it didn't matter; eliminating as many Sects as they could first was the goal.
This kind of scene began to unfold everywhere, and the smoke of war was spreading continuously in many places.
At this moment, inside one of the Sects, those planted by the Demon Race saw the Demon Race members attacking and knew it was time for them to act.
The people of the Ice Snow Sect looked at the Demon Clan members who had surrounded them; they hadn't expected to be targeted so quickly.
Fortunately, they were prepared. "Prepare the Grand Array."
It should be able to hold until people from other Sects arrived to support them. Just a moment ago, they were considering whether to go support others, but now it seemed they couldn't even protect themselves.
But as long as they could hold on for a bit, it would be fine. This Grand Array should be able to last for a significant amount of time, and with their resistance, they could basically hold out until reinforcements arrived.
The Golden Core Stage Demon Race member who was attacking looked at this Grand Array. He knew the situation inside this Sect; Jiang Cheng and the others had already given them the intelligence.
There were quite a few of their people inside this Sect.
This was the time for them to act, but they didn't move; they just watched the scene below.
The Sect Master of the Ice Snow Sect looked at the Demon Clan members above who were taking no action. They couldn't understand the current behavior of the Demon Clan members, but for them, it was a good thing for the time being.
For them now, they would drag out the time as much as possible.
At this moment, the Demon Clan member spoke up, "How about it? Do you want to defect to our Demon Race and act with us?"
"This way, you won't have to perish right now. Joining us comes with many benefits."
The Sect Master of the Ice Snow Sect looked at the Demon Race above, "We will not defect to your Demon Race. Even if we die, we will take one of you with us."
The Demon Clan member gave a contemptuous smile, "I have given you a chance."
Just as the Demon Clan member finished speaking, the Sect Master of the Ice Snow Sect suddenly felt something was wrong; the person he trusted the most had actually ambushed him.
Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth as he turned to look at him, his face full of disbelief.
"You are actually a Demon Clan member? You traitor!"
"Sect Master, you can't blame me. I desired progress too much, and the Demon Race can give me this opportunity."
"Just rest in peace down there. I will live on well in your place."
The Demon Race in the sky watched this scene; it was truly done without a hint of hesitation. Sometimes, you are the true Demon Race.
As the Grand Array slowly disappeared, the Disciples below also reacted to this scene and began to run in all directions.
But obviously, these actions were futile. With the Demon Race members and these turncoats, they simply couldn't escape.
The only thing awaiting them was a desperate fate.
