Chapter 224: Survival Principles

Since there were no beings at the Void Refinement Stage, he had no need to personally lead those who had arrived.

Letting Chen An do it was sufficient; after all, Chen An was his successor.

Jiang Cheng did not have much time to waste here; he still needed to perfect the Cultivation Technique derived from his Yin Yang Demon Pearl.

After watching Jiang Cheng leave, those people relaxed slightly.

As long as Jiang Cheng was present, they felt a significant amount of pressure.

After all, the title of Wind Spirit Demon Venerable was very renowned now.

His strength was evident to all, and they were afraid that some action might offend this Wind Spirit Demon Venerable. Furthermore, Jiang Cheng was a member of the last War between Immortals and Demons, so his qualifications were beyond reproach.

Within the Demon Race, his right to speak was second only to those Old Ancestors of the Demon Race at the Void Refinement Stage.

At this moment, those who had arrived looked at the surrounding scenery and sighed with emotion; it had been too long since they had been to the Southern Region.

In fact, most of them had never even been to the Southern Region; they only knew that they had originally come from the Southern Region.

They had simply been driven out by the Human Race of the Southern Region, and now they had truly returned to their starting point.

Those who had never been to the Southern Region had grown up accompanied by this hatred, and now they finally had the opportunity to take revenge.

Everyone looked at the surrounding scenery. The Southern Region was truly different; it had a feeling of home. From now on, this Southern Region would be the world of our Demon Race.

Of course, those who had just arrived were very excited. No, it was not just them; those who had come from other regions were the same.

This time, their strength was formidable, and their numbers were greater than in the previous War between Immortals and Demons, as was the case for the Old Ancestors at the Void Refinement Stage.

They were full of self-confidence when they arrived.

They felt that the people of the Southern Region, living in such a settled environment without much conflict, certainly could not be strong.

They were not on the same level as those who came from places where both sides coexisted, where there was fighting every day, and where large-scale wars with Human Race Sects broke out from time to time; they were people who frequently experienced combat.

Therefore, they were not very worried, but they had also heard that there were two extremely powerful Geniuses on the Human Race side. However, it was not up to them to deal with them.

Someone else would naturally go to deal with those two.

Most of them were just foot soldiers, and they would be facing the foot soldiers on the Human Race side; they only needed to defeat the foot soldiers of the Human Race.

They didn't need to worry about anything else; they had some confidence in dealing with the Golden Core Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage of the Human Race.

Zhang Pan, the leader, looked at Chen An, a being at the Late Stage Golden Core.

It was barely acceptable. If it weren't for the fact that he was Jiang Cheng's man, he wouldn't have thought much of this person. However, he wouldn't show it; he would still give the necessary Face.

Plus, this person had made significant contributions to their Demon Race, and he was not an unreasonable person.

Chen An looked at the crowd. After the crowd regained their composure, Chen An came before Zhang Pan.

Chen An looked at Zhang Pan and said, "Senior, please follow me. I will first take you to the place arranged for you."

"On the way, I will introduce the specific situation of the Southern Region to you."

Zhang Pan nodded, "Good. By the way, what is your name, kid?"

Chen An replied, "My name is Chen An."

Upon learning this, Zhang Pan said, "I see. I have also heard that you have made many contributions to the Demon Race. I have noted this, and I appreciate your hard work."

Chen An shook his head and said, "Not at all, not at all. I am just doing my duty. In the end, we will still have to rely on you, Senior. Your combat power is a rare asset for our Demon Race."

Zhang Pan looked at Chen An. This kid really knew how to handle things; no wonder he was doing quite well in the Demon Race.

What he said was pleasing to hear.

Zhang Pan laughed, "Let's not talk about that for now. First, take us over there, and then explain the affairs of the Southern Region to us in detail. We either haven't been to the Southern Region for too long…"

"…or we have never been to the Southern Region at all. We would like to learn more about the current appearance of the Southern Region."

Chen An then led the group to the arranged place, taking the opportunity to explain the affairs of the Southern Region to them.

Chen An told them everything they wanted to know.

After Chen An settled them all in, he left the place.

Chen An was not like these people, anxious to Cultivate. For Chen An, he was not a Genius; having him or not having him as this level of combat power made little difference.

He had no need to Cultivate so urgently.

Even if Chen An reached a Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage, it wouldn't change anything.

It would barely even create a splash in this War between Immortals and Demons.

In Chen An's view, it was meaningless. It would be better to gather intelligence during this war; that was the thing that could change the war.

As long as he mastered enough intelligence, he could survive to the end.

Even if the Demon Race lost and the worst-case scenario occurred, he might not disappear.

This was the confidence that intelligence brought him; relying on this, Chen An did not need to participate in the war.

Even if there was an accident, he could immediately make a reasonable choice based on the existing intelligence and his understanding of the outside world.

Just now, when explaining the Southern Region to that group, they were quite confident and did not take the other people in the Southern Region seriously.

But the fact was that the people of the Southern Region were not as simple as they imagined.

Those people had asked him this question, but he did not tell them.

Morale was a very important thing. It was a good thing that they had ambition now, and he did not want to dampen it.

Chen An then left the place; he now needed to grasp the situation of the people on both sides as much as possible.

This was his principle of survival.

In this War between Immortals and Demons, everyone had their own way.

And for Chen An, his way was that intelligence was greater than everything, while for others, it was strength above all, or perhaps strategy above all.

Many flowers of death bloomed in this war.

But the one who lived to the end was the true winner.

Chen An knew that Jiang Cheng was very good to him, and he was not the type of person to be ungrateful. Jiang Cheng had saved him and given him the power to take revenge.

If it weren't for Jiang Cheng, he would have died long ago in that Mortal's alleyway.

If the Demon Race's war failed, he would have to find a way to let Jiang Cheng survive.

Meanwhile, back to Su Yu, Su Yu felt some changes occurring within his body; he could feel it.

As Su Yu's proficiency with those Cultivation Techniques and powers continued to increase.

He could feel that a new power was being born.

That's right, Su Yu could feel that his next derived Divine Ability was about to appear.

This was a bit faster than Su Yu had anticipated; it seemed that it wouldn't be long before another Divine Ability appeared.

Now he would have three Divine Abilities.
