Chapter 576 -387: Upper Sect Envoy Arrives!_4
“Ah?”
“So~I~am~not~in~trouble…right?”
The Xuan Stone Turtle, at the second level of Golden Core, was recruited by Ding Zhen to join the Xuan Stone Sect as a visiting Elder, due to its gentle nature that disliked strife and shared a name with the sect.
It was just he who had attacked the Treasure Ship.
It was all to create an impression that the Demon Clan was uncontrollable.
“Relax, old turtle, we’ve got your back.”
“Oh~~~that’s good.”
The old turtle slowly turned around and lay down on the mountain peak…and fell asleep.
Ding Zhen patted its big head with a smile at the corner of his mouth; he was quite fond of this big turtle.
Simply because it was a very pure member of the Demon Clan, its reason for joining the Xuan Stone Sect was also very straightforward.
With an extremely long lifespan, it didn’t want to fight but simply to live a laid-back life…
As long as the Human Clan didn’t send it to battle against the Demon Clan, it would stay close to humans.
It was the type to not offend either side and then come to enjoy life among the Human Clan.
From the Xuan Stone Turtle, Ding Zhen and Yang Shi learned a lesson.
“The Demon Clan is diverse, and the wisdom and thoughts of Golden Core Stage demons are no weaker than those of the Human Clan; they must not be underestimated.”
A demon like the Xuan Stone Turtle that didn’t offend either side and knew how to ingratiate itself to find a comfortable environment to rest in was indeed smart.
At least Ding Zhen and Yang Shi couldn’t possibly refuse him.
To refuse him would be pushing him to the opposition, which would be of no benefit to the Human Clan.
And killing this old turtle… despite him being only at the second level of Golden Core, his defensive power could compete with that of Late Stage Golden Core demons. Once he retracted into his shell, Ding Zhen and Yang Shi could bust their knuckles against it without truly hurting him.
“If there were more demons like the old turtle, I’d actually be quite willing to welcome them…”
That’s what Ding Zhen said.
“Indeed, look at the bears, Pei Qi, Ant King and the others Fuqing brought, they’re getting along well with the human Cultivators now, and many Cultivators in Bright City like to make friends with them.”
“It’s a pity… just as the Human Clan has Demon Cultivators and Evil Cultivators, not all demons can be as we wish, benign beings.”
“Let’s just protect Bright City and wait for the Sect to decide.”
With better tactics at hand, Yang Shi would never let his Sky Dragon Army and his children risk their lives recklessly.
The two divided and stood guard on the walls of Bright City.
Yang Genshuo nodded when he saw this.
“That’s the right thought; we’ve already exerted our utmost effort. If we can’t control the situation…we can only seek help from the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect and avoid senseless sacrifices.”
“At least right now, Bright City isn’t a place any demon can just come to as they please.”
In the past few months, some belligerent members of the Demon Clan tried to provoke Bright City, wanting to enter this human city for an easy meal.
But one round from the air defense guns made them behave…
The scattered small teams of demons didn’t have the strength to attack Bright City forcefully.
During this time, Yang Genshuo also noticed a disadvantage of the Demon Clan.
“Demons are completely disunited; they do not fight together. So far, the largest demon team we’ve seen is Da Xiong and his group of six Great Demons.”
The other demons acted independently.
A few from the Night Demon Palace had connections, but after the Flood Dragon and his group were blasted into the sky, they hadn’t been as cohesive.
This fragmented state into countless small teams made the demons unable to pose a significant threat to Bright City.
Even if the spatial passage was untenable, at least the area around Bright City remained under control.
“It’s been so long, how come the spatial passage hasn’t closed? How many demons could have come through by now…”
“The Night Demon Palace can’t possibly keep that passage open indefinitely, can they?”
“I don’t believe it.”
Under the current circumstances, the Danai Dynasty still had to survive, until someone from the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect arrived.
Yang Genshuo took a look around, seeing no major battle situation for the moment, and decided to go out for a while.
He made a phone call, and the driver who had been on standby at the mountain’s base immediately came up with the car.
“Let’s go, to the Elixir Medicine Laboratory with Immortal Qi.”
Yang Genshuo wanted to see how his Life Divine Tree sapling was coming along.
