Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

"Need my help?"

Lin Bai looked at Li Guxian with interest, with a faint smile on his lips, as if he was looking forward to what she would say next.

Facing Lin Bai's gaze, Li Guxian did not feel fear or retreat, but continued:

"First of all, we need to make sure that the goals of the Emperor's son and our Nine Nether Demon Palace are the same!"

Lin Bai thought for a while and said, "That depends on what the goal of the Nine Nether Demon Palace is."

Li Guxian chuckled and said, "I don't know much about the future goals of the Demon Palace, but I know the current goals very well."

"The Demon Palace is now rebuilding the mountain gate and urgently needs a piece of precious land to recuperate!"

"And obviously, the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect has become an ownerless land, which is the best choice for the Demon Palace."

Lin Bai nodded and asked again, "So the goal of the Demon Palace is to rule the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect? Become one of the four most prosperous forces in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm?"

Ruling the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect is undoubtedly a prosperous force. Apart from this, no other force can do it.

Li Guxian smiled and said, "Yes, so our goal is the same as the Emperor's son?"

Lin Bai's mind was full of thoughts, and many things and many figures emerged.

Among them are the Saint of Qiye Shenzong Yi Gu, the Saint of Fantian Sect Meng Qinxian, the Saint of Baitian Sect Nie Shang and others.

If Jiuyou Demon Palace wants to become the overlord of Qiye Shenzong's territory, it must deal with these three major sects, and even require them to submit to Jiuyou Demon Palace.

But it happens that...Yi Gu is the current ruler of Qiye Shenzong, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has a blood feud with Jiuyou Demon Palace.

The two major sects, Fantian Sect and Baitian Sect, are ready to move, and they have already had the intention of plotting the territory of Qiye Shenzong.

Lin Bai has already vaguely guessed...what Li Guxian wants to ask him to do may be to persuade Fantian Sect, Baitian Sect, and Qiye Shenzong to surrender.

After all, if a war breaks out...it is impossible to take down Fantian Sect and Baitian Sect in a short time.

In fact, there is not much time left for the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

Lin Bai asked curiously, "What do you want me to do?"

Li Guxian saw Lin Bai's thoughtful look and immediately smiled, "Hasn't Senior Brother Di Zi guessed it?"

"The five forces within the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect at present."

"The Seven Nights Divine Sect, Fantian Sect, and Baitian Sect all have a good relationship with Senior Brother Di Zi. We hope that Senior Brother Di Zi can come out and talk to them."

"Let's see if we can successfully make them surrender without fighting!"

She paused here and said, "As for the forces such as the Demon Elimination Alliance, Chunyang Sect, and Phoenix Valley, leave it to me to deal with."

Sure enough! ... Lin Bai guessed Li Guxian's idea, and he really asked him to come out and talk in detail with Fantian Sect, Baitian Sect, and Seven Nights Divine Sect.

Lin Bai was also thinking about the feasibility of this matter in his heart.

Seven Nights Divine Sect, there is no need to say more.

Before Lin Bai went to Yongye Pass, he had met Yi Gu of the Seven Nights Divine Sect and learned some things from him.

At present, the top leaders of the Seven Nights Divine Sect have already felt that the situation is over, and restoring the glory of the sect has become a verbal slogan, and it is difficult to take action.

The current Seven Nights Divine Sect only wants to get a piece of territory to settle down and avoid the destruction of the entire sect.

After all, the territory where the Seven Nights Divine Sect is currently located is borrowed from the Qinglian Sect, and it is not theirs.

"If the Seven Nights Divine Sect and Yi Gu are willing to be cunning, they will definitely want to get a piece of territory as a place for the sect to recuperate!"

Lin Bai roughly guessed the idea of ​​Yi Gu of the Seven Nights Divine Sect.

But where should this piece of land for recuperation be divided?

This is another big problem.

It is definitely unrealistic to divide it from the territories of the Fantian Sect, Baitian Sect, Qinglian Sect, Fenghuang Valley, Chunyang Sect and other sects.

His several major sects will definitely not be willing.

And how big does this piece of territory need to be?

Is it just a small state, or several thousand states?

The Seven Nights Divine Sect will never accept the request of several large states or several thousand states. Their request... must be to benchmark the top sects.

Even if the Seven Nights Divine Sect cannot continue to be a prosperous force, it is possible to maintain the top sect.

That would be troublesome.

The territory and territory required by the top sects are extremely large, starting from the size of hundreds of thousands of states.

The current power division of the Seven Nights Divine Sect’s territory was determined after more than 100,000 years of fighting.

These are the territories that the ancestors and ancestors of the major sects have fought bloody battles to win. How could they be willing to divide them to the Seven Nights Divine Sect?

And it is even more impossible for the Nine Nether Demon Palace to divide the territory.

After all, the Nine Nether Demon Palace now controls not many territories, and it is impossible to divide them out.

"Trouble!"

Just the issue of the Seven Nights Divine Sect’s territory made Lin Bai feel extremely troubled!

Secondly, it was the Fantian Sect and the Baitian Sect.

As an old sect within the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, it has been a top sect for more than tens of thousands of years, and the accumulated foundation and sect masters have reached their peak.

If the Fantian Sect and the Baitian Sect join forces, it is not impossible to fight against the prosperous sect.

If he wants to make the Fantian Sect and the Baitian Sect surrender, the difficulty is more annoying than persuading the Seven Nights Divine Sect to surrender.

Let me ask...are the Fantian Sect and the Baitian Sect willing to worship the Nine Nether Demon Palace?

They obviously don't want to!

Not to mention that Jiuyou Demon Palace is now notorious in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm. Their sect’s power alone makes them qualified to compete for the throne of the most prosperous sect. How can they be willing to stay under others for a long time?

"The Fantian Sect and the Baitian Sect are even more troublesome!!"

Lin Bai couldn't help but shook his head and said to Li Guxian: "What you want me to do is very troublesome."

Li Guxian smiled bitterly and said, "Senior Brother Dizi, don't you think it's troublesome to deal with the Demon Slayer Alliance, Chunyang Sect, and Phoenix Valley?"

"Chun Yang Sect and Phoenix Valley have already made complete preparations to separate themselves from the Nine Nether Demon Palace."

"Although I have provoked some fights within them during these times, most of them ended in failure."

"It hasn't shaken their resolve yet."

Lin Bai raised his eyebrows: "Do you still fail?"

Li Guxian shrugged and said helplessly: "Everyone will fail. Failure on some small things is much better than failure on big things."

"At least for the failure of small things, I can still accept the price of its failure."

She continued: "As for the Demon Slayer Alliance, I heard that Senior Brother Dizi met the warriors of the Demon Slayer Alliance before he returned to the Demon Palace."

"Then Senior Brother Dizi should know that this Demon Slayer Alliance is not a simple one. It is a force formed by the ancestors and elders of various large, medium and small family clans in the Eastern Region of the Demon World."

"The leader behind them is even more mysterious."

When it came to the Demon Slayer Alliance, Lin Bai thought about it and then expressed his guess:

"In the process of contacting the Demon Slayer Alliance, I learned that they have a complete reward and punishment system!"

"This is obviously unrealistic."

"To formulate a complete reward and punishment system, it will inevitably require a large amount of resources and foundation to support it."

"Since the Demon Slayer Alliance is a gathering of small, medium and large families and sects in the Eastern Demon Realm, and their families and sects are not within the territory of the Seven Nights Sect, it is absolutely impossible to support such a huge reward and punishment system!"

"So I suspect that behind the Demon Slayer Alliance, there may be local forces from the Seven Nights Sect supporting it."

"But which local force it is, I don't know."

"Maybe it's Chunyang Sect, maybe it's Phoenix Valley, maybe it's Qinglian Sect, maybe it's Fantian Sect, it's all possible."

To this, Li Guxian also nodded her head in deep agreement:

"I've also suspected this."

"Perhaps it will be the five top forces of the Seven Nights Divine Sect supporting you, and perhaps there will be shadows of foreign forces as well!"

Foreign forces? ... Lin Bai raised his eyebrows and asked with certainty: "Northern Territory?"

Li Guxian said with a smile: "Senior Brother Dizi, don't underestimate the warriors in the Northern Territory. Don't think that they are all fools."

"There are many smart people in the Northern Territory. Since they want to plot the Eastern Territory, it will not be as simple as it seems on the surface!"

"Including the competition between the Eastern Territory and the Northern Territory on the border. Although the Eastern Territory won, the Northern Territory did not admit defeat so easily."

"It's just that the victory of the Eastern Region will make it easier for us to use our methods. After all, we are the victor!"

According to Li Guxian's speculation, she suspected that the resource supplier behind the Demon Slayer Alliance was a warrior from the Northern Territory.

Lin Bai thought about it carefully and could not rule out this possibility.

On the contrary, Lin Bai thought that Li Guxian considered things very comprehensively and could often consider things that Lin Bai could not think of at all.

After some analysis, Li Guxian said: "So, the pressure on my side is completely different from the pressure that Senior Brother Dizi faces from the Baitian Sect, the Fantian Sect, and the Seven Nights Sect."

"Of course."

"I will deal with Chunyang Sect, Phoenix Valley, and Demon Slayer Alliance; Senior Brother Dizi will deal with Fantian Sect, Worshiping Heaven Sect, and Qiye Shen Sect."

"The warriors inside the Demon Palace are not idle either. They are ready for war at any time!"

"After all, the Demon Palace is bound to win the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect. If it can be ended through peace talks, that would naturally be the best."

"But if we can't reach an agreement, then we will have no choice but to go to war!"

Lin Bai suddenly narrowed his eyes. Li Guxian suddenly mentioned the war, which was obviously a reminder to him.

If Lin Bai cannot make the Baitian Sect, Fantian Sect, and Qiye Shen Sect surrender smoothly, then the war will begin in the Jiuyou Demon Palace.

Lin Bai frowned and asked: "If the Nine Nether Demon Palace declares war on the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, is it possible that the Fantian Sect, the Worshiping Sect, the Chunyang Sect, the Phoenix Valley, the Demon Slayer Alliance and other forces will be forced to jump over the wall and make them jump over the wall? What about uniting together?”

"You can't rule out the possibility, right?"

"After all, the Demon Palace is now isolated and helpless. Wansheng Mountain and the State of Chu will never send troops to help the Nine Nether Demon Palace."

"As for the five top forces within the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect plus a Demon Slayer Alliance, if they are willing to share the same hatred, it will be difficult for the Demon Palace to deal with them, right?"

Lin Bai raised another possibility.

And this possibility is not a lie, but a real chance of happening.

Although the Nine Nether Demon Palace has rebuilt its mountain gate, it is still in a state of isolation and helplessness.

Although Wansheng Mountain, Chu State, and Qitian Sect all acquiesced to the fact that Jiuyou Demon Palace rebuilt the mountain gate, they did not establish an "offensive and defensive alliance" contract with Jiuyou Demon Palace.

Moreover, the reputation of Jiuyou Demon Palace in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm is very poor, and it is an existence that is despised by almost everyone.

If the Demon Palace declares war on the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, it is very likely that the Fantian Sect, Worshiping Heaven Sect, Chunyang Sect, Phoenix Valley and other forces will form an alliance to drive out the Nine Nether Demon Palace and then slowly carve up the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect.

Because on the surface, the Nine Nether Demon Palace is the enemy of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, the invader, and their biggest opponent.

And it is also the most threatening opponent to them. If possible, they must first eliminate the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

Li Guxian smiled and nodded, "Brother Di Zi is indeed thoughtful and can consider this level."

"So, it's best for us to complete this matter through peace talks."

"Even if we can't make all forces surrender, at least we have to win over a few allies."

Lin Bai understood what Li Guxian meant. Simply put... win over as many as we can.

"But... what if in the end, we don't win over anyone?"

Lin Bai asked again: "Does the Demon Palace have an emergency plan for this?"

Li Guxian said with a solemn face: "Of course there is a plan, but we don't hope to go that far."

In other words, even if Lin Bai and Li Guxian all failed in the end, the Demon Palace declared war on the Seven Nights Divine Sect's territory and conquered this territory in the form of a crusade, with blood and screams, the Demon Palace is also certain to conquer this territory.

Hearing that the Demon Palace had an emergency plan for this, Lin Bai did not ask any more questions.

"Okay, I will visit the three major sects, including the Seven Nights Divine Sect, the Fantian Sect, and the Baitian Sect."

"But I can't guarantee that things will succeed."

"I even think... the possibility of failure is very high!"

Li Guxian nodded and said, "Whether it succeeds or not, we need to try our best."

"Otherwise, once the war starts, I don't know how many years this war will last."

Lin Bai nodded and said, "Then I will set off immediately. Anyway, there are not many things in the Demon Palace that I need to deal with."

Li Guxian nodded and said, "It's best to do so, then we will wait for good news from Senior Brother Di Zi."

"If they put forward any requirements during the interview with Fantian Sect, Baitian Sect, and the Seven Nights Divine Sect, if Senior Brother Di Zi thinks it's not too much, you can agree to it."

"Of course, if it's too much, we must talk about it again."

Lin Bai nodded slightly in agreement, and discussed it with Yao Dao Gu, Zhao Fengxia, and Li Guxian.

Then Lin Bai took Wen Lao and Daozi Yu You to visit the three holy elders of the Demon Palace, explained the reason, and left the Demon Palace after getting the permission of the holy elders.

This time, Lin Bai did not take the second son of God, the third son of God, and a large number of high-level warriors of the Nine Nether Demon Palace with him. He only took Wen Lao and Daozi Yu You with him.

There was no big action on the way, but he hid his tracks to avoid being caught by the Demon Extermination Alliance and entangled.

As for the internal affairs of the Demon Palace, the three holy elders and the Elders Council will naturally handle it. If there is any problem, the Demon Palace Master will definitely come forward.

Although the Demon Palace Master does not show up in the Demon Palace for many years, he has his sanctuary when he is in the Nine Nether City.

Ordinary Nine Nether Demon Palace warriors may think that the Demon Palace Master does not care about the affairs of the Demon Palace, but in fact, every choice made by the Demon Palace can only be implemented with the approval of the Demon Palace Master.

Now that the Nine Nether Demon Palace has rebuilt the mountain gate, it must be inside the Demon Palace headquarters, and there is also the Demon Palace Master's sanctuary. His divine thoughts must be lingering around here!

Even the conversation between Lin Bai and Li Guxian in the Imperial Palace may have been under the Demon Palace Master's observation.
